  • Vancouver Agreement Funds Construction of the Chinatown Millennium Gate a Gate Over Pender, the Gateway to the Silk Road
    February 17, 2001 VANCOUVER AGREEMENT FUNDS CONSTRUCTION OF THE CHINATOWN MILLENNIUM GATE A GATE OVER PENDER, THE GATEWAY TO THE SILK ROAD VANCOUVER — A traditional Chinese Gate over Pender Street will soon welcome visitors to Vancouver’s Chinatown. The construction of a traditional gate at the entrance to historic Chinatown was announced today by Secretary of State Hedy Fry (Multiculturalism) (Status of Women), Minister of Community Develop- ment, Cooperatives and Volunteers Jenny Kwan, Vancouver City Mayor Philip Owen, and Mr. Tong Yuet, President of the Vancouver Chinatown Millennium Gate Society. The Chinatown Millennium Gate is part of a larger plan to market Vancouver’s Chinatown and to im- prove business and living conditions in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. This announcement of Vancouver Agreement funding for the Millennium Gate builds on the unique heritage, cultural and business strengths of the community. The Gate over Pender, to the east of Taylor, is the realiza- tion of a long-held dream; one that the Vancouver Chinatown Millennium Society has taken on with a sense of urgency these last few years, to promote community pride and attract shoppers and tourists to Chinatown. “The investment by the three governments in this community project is an essential component of the Vancouver Agreement and sends a strong signal that we envision the revitalization of the living space in the Downtown Eastside and prosperity returning to Vancouver’s Chinatown,” said Dr. Fry, Secretary of State (Multiculturalism) (Status of Women). “Governments can’t do it alone and neither can the community. Together, though, we can turn things around in the DTES.” “The concept of a gate is steeped in tradition,” said minister Kwan.

Rest in Peace, Herbie. Hanson 2 Introduction We gay folks know this most acutely because expressions of our very sexualities were illegal barely a generation ago (some still are). Freedom of expression is the very foundation of gay and lesbian movements. As a peaceful demonstration of civil disobedience, QAIA [Queers Against Israeli Apartheid] members and supporters should march in the parade, authors of their own messages, regardless of what Pride Toronto organizers, or their masters, have to say about it. – Matt Mills, “Let‟s Get Civilly Disobedient,” Extra, June 3, 2010. During the summer of 2010, Toronto‟s premier gay magazine Extra expounded criticisms such as these attacking the Toronto Pride Committee, which oversees Toronto‟s annual gay pride parade. The issues at stake: censorship and freedom of speech. During the spring of 2010, a gay political group entitled “Queers Against Israeli Apartheid” (QAIA) sought permission to march under this name in the Toronto gay pride parade, one of Toronto‟s largest annual events. Sensing controversy, Pride Toronto deliberated whether to allow QAIA to march.
