Calgary Counter-Protesters Rally to Protect LGBTQ+ Community

Peaceful Protest Held in Support of Children's Rights

Counter-protesters gathered in Downtown Calgary on Friday, June 16th, to stand against a rally organized by an anti-LGBTQ+ group. The "Leave Our Kids Alone" protest was organized in response to the group's planned rally, which was focused on opposing the teaching of LGBTQ+ issues in schools.

The counter-protesters gathered at City Hall, carrying signs with messages such as "Love is Love" and "Protect LGBTQ+ Youth." They chanted slogans and sang songs in support of the LGBTQ+ community and their right to live free from discrimination and hate.

The "Leave Our Kids Alone" rally was also met with protests from other groups, including the Calgary Police Service. The police were present to ensure the safety of both protesters and counter-protesters. No arrests were made during the event.

The counter-protesters' rally is a reminder of the importance of speaking out against hate and discrimination. It is also a reminder that we must all work together to create a more inclusive and just society for all.
