Pride vs. Prejudice Documentary

Join us for the story of LGBTQ+ activist Delwin Vriend who battled against getting fired because he was gay.

Pride vs. Prejudice delves into the riveting narrative of the Vriend v. Alberta case, where Delwin Vriend, an unlikely hero, courageously battles against discrimination from a government determined to deny his human rights. Uncover the twists and turns that unfold as Vriend's pursuit of justice challenges societal biases, culminating in a ground-breaking Canadian Supreme Court ruling in 1998 that confronts prejudice and sets a
transformative precedent for LGBTQ+ rights that is cited around the world.

In partnership with Tri-Cities Pride Society.
