Dyke Pride
This is Pride Week in Vancouver, culminating in tomorrow's Gay Pride Parade through the West End. Commercial Drive's annual contribution is the Dykes on the Drive Parade, always held on the Saturday lunchtime. The dykes and their supporters march from McSpadden Park to Grandview Park where a musical party is held.
While the march is nothing like the size of tomorrow's jamboree, this year's parade seemed to be about double the numbers from last year. It has become very much a family affair.
Compared once again to the Gay Pride Parade tomorrow, Dyke's on the Drive is a low-key affair, but there is no shortage of pride.
