As myFM reported to you recently, a protest occurred at a recent drag storytime event in Parkhill held at the library and hosted by Strathroy Pride. The event itself has garnered plenty of attention including the escalated at times protest involving over 20 individuals. Stemming for all of this, Strathroy Pride is hoping to get together with and seek guidance from municipal officials and law enforcement. Strathroy Pride has reached out through a letter to Strathroy-Caradoc Mayor Colin Grantham, and Police Chief Mark Campbell requesting a meeting.
Mayor Grantham has confirmed with myFM that they have agreed to a meeting and awaiting a response from Strathroy Pride for a confirmed date and time. This could be a very important set of discussions to talk about potential measures for future events as another drag storytime event is planned for Strathroy’s Pride in the Park event July 8th.
