Fake friends stick with you when it's easy. Real friends stick with you when it's hard.

Pride Toronto, the non-profit organization behind the annual 2SLGBTQI+ parade, did not disclose the names of the sponsors as it hopes to persuade them to continue their funding.

Well if they don't, please do drag their names through the mud.

City should run the festival. What are the major costs, police? The city should pick up the tab for the police.
