  • The Pride flag is flying on our community flagpole to recognize June as Pride Month. Pride Month is celebrated across Canada and around the world as a time to honour the history, resilience, and contributions of 2SLGBTQ+ communities. It is an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to inclusion, raise awareness, support equity, and celebrate the diversity that strengthens our community.

    Haldimand County is enriched by the voices, experiences, and stories of 2SLGBTQ+ residents. Flying the Pride flag reflects our dedication to ensuring that everyone who lives, works, and visits here feels welcomed, respected, and valued.
