Night March 2023
Wednesday, June 21st @ 8:00pm
Barbara Hall Park
We march to honour the memory of our friend, community member, and comrade Brian De Matos, and in support of necessary supervised consumption spaces in and around Pride this year, and moving forward.
The Night March will gather for a rally at Barbara Hall Park at 8:00 pm. We march at 9:00 pm.
Use the hashtag #NightMarch23 for any updates throughout the night.
Our 2SLGBTQQI+ community in the GTA has experienced high rates of overdoses from tainted drug supplies and a lack of safer services such as supervised consumption sites and safe supply. While Pride Toronto does have a sober space, we are amplifying Brian’s request that the festival commit to funding and opening supervised consumption sites near the festival environment, and actively engaging with people who use drugs as peer workers to ensure that any services are delivered by and for the drug-using community.
