Pride 2025: A Message from CGLCC

Promotional graphic for Pride Month event "A Word On Pride 2025" with CGLCC and Government of Canada logos.

This Pride, we’re celebrating the contributions of 2SLGBTQI+ entrepreneurs and calling on all Canadians to take meaningful action.

Across the country, queer and trans-owned businesses continue to lead with resilience, creativity, and impact. They’re shaping stronger communities, transforming barriers into breakthroughs, and driving a more inclusive, sustainable economy. 

As we celebrate progress, we also recognize that this work is far from over. 

It’s a time to be bold, not cautious, about who we support, what we value, and how we build a future that reflects everyone. 

CGLCC exists to amplify the voices of 2SLGBTQI+ business owners, open doors, and ensure they have equitable opportunities to thrive.

Watch this video message from our CEO, Darrell Schuurman, as he shares why Pride 2025 is a pivotal moment for visibility, economic equity, and collective action.
