Elizabeth May - Mindful and Prideful - of the needs of the LGBTQ community

Elizabeth May went - all-out - at this year's Pride Parade in Vancouver.

It's not the first time she was comfortable showing her support for the gay rights. 

Some time back she allowed herself to be interviewed by a glossy lesbian mag out of San Francisco called Curve,  which is distributed internationally.  In addition, she managed to reach readers of Outlooks, a hip LGBT glossy out of Calgary. Click on links below to read both interviews.

Moreover to lending political currency to gay-rights causes in pop-culture, May has also spoken out in the debate bedeviling the Anglican Church.  Herself, speaking from the more progressive standpoint of course. Here is an interview with her dating back a couple of years when the controversy was at its height:  For the Understory, go to All voices:
