Looks like the circus is coming back to town!
Halifax local celebrity (Canadian almost-Idol) Gary Beals is taking part in an anti-gay rally in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, on March 5th -- the day before the March of Hearts on Parliament Hill in Ottawa! (www.marchofhearts.ca )
Aliant (the Atlantic Canada version of Bell) is currently running a half-dozen different television ads with Gary Beals teaching people how to use their cell phones. I just called Aliant to complain about using him in their commercials if he's going to be involved in this sort of anti-equality event.
I encourage other Atlantic Canadians (or everyone) to do the same if you agree. 1-800-222-7074 (you may need to be transferred if you don't have a cell phone, and they take your name and complaint and pass it on to a Manager).
I especially like that they're charging money for this event. More information from www.fotf.ca -- a horrid place, really.

...I want to go protest, but it would just give me an ulcer.

GARY BEALS IS MORE GAY THAN A DRAG QUEEN IN A LITTLE BO PEEP OUTFIT LICKEN' A RAINBOW LOLLYPOP! This is unbelievable. I'm going to email Canadian Idle with the concerns that this may look that it reflects thier views of homosexuality and equality. How would they like to know that one of thier "precious" is influencing young people everywhere with anti-equality bullshit?? I say we all head to the Canadian Idle website and email them directly. We should all Subject our emails "Gary Beals does anti-equality rally"...
This just enrages me to no end. I've called Aliant and I'm in the process of sending out a mass email to everyone I know to do the same
