"Mark Carney blasted for celebrating LGBT ‘pride’ parade, hugging obscene activist"

"Prime Minister Mark Carney made it onto Fox News a few nights ago but probably not for the reason he’d prefer. It wasn’t for comments on the Trump tariffs or an assertion of Canadian sovereignty or even something generically statesmanlike.

Nope. The prime minister was featured on American TV hugging a nearly naked LGBT activist on the street in Vancouver. Carney had showed up for business meetings on Sunday, August 3, but (perhaps after church?) he dropped by the LGBT event to show his support.

A few decades ago, aspiring politicians would have done everything in their power to bury such a photo (or, better yet, ensured that no such photo existed). But in 2025, a 60-year-old man who once served as the governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, clad in a navy suit and blue dress shirt, finds it necessary to show up at the Vancouver 'pride' parade and clutch a virtually nude man.

In fact, LGBT activists and their allies insist that it is entirely appropriate for naked men in sexual fetish gear to be seen by families with small children — families can be seen in the background of the photo in which Carney is hugging the activist. It would have been utterly stunning a short time ago to hear people defending children being exposed to public exhibitionism. But here we are.

According to the Toronto Sun, Carney marched with the LGBT activists for a kilometer and 'was greeted by loud cheers from parade-goers lining the sidewalks along the route, as he shook hands with the crowd and posed for photos with participants...

Then, Carney was handed a microphone by a drag queen. The drag queen thanked him for his attendance and Carney said that the parade was 'the best of Canada.' He went on to say that 'Pride' represents the 'essence of Canada.'

The 'best of Canada,' according to Carney, are not BC loggers or Saskatchewan farmers or Alberta oilmen. The 'best of Canada' are not Maritimes fisherman or men and women in uniform or any number of other hardworking Canadians across the country. No, the 'best of Canada' are apparently those who show up at an event, strip down to their underwear (or less) in public, and parade themselves for all to see. This, Carney said solemnly, is the 'essence of Canada.'"
