VISIONProudPolitics believes that the best path toward greater awareness of the LGBT community in Canada, is to have more viable, inspirational, and competent openly LGBT leaders, of all political stripes, serving the public through elected office, and on public boards, commissions, and agencies. ProudPolitics envisions these leaders championing greater inclusion from across the political spectrum.WHY WE DO WHAT WE DOWe believe that public LGBT role models can provide underserved LGBT communities with hope and inspiration that they too can be proud of their identities and become inspirational leaders. These same community leaders have the potential to be the strongest allies in achieving greater equality & inclusion.We believe that the fight isn't over. Despite statutory rights and electoral achievements, LGBT citizens still face many implicit barriers to participate in Canada's democracy.We believe that there is unmet potential. Support and resources for LGBT leaders are often exclusive, uncoordinated, and focused on advocacy. The diversity of political beliefs and unmet potential within the LGBT community, therefore, is often not recognized and addressed.WHAT IS PROUDPOLITICS ALL ABOUT? Our mission is to diversify the face and voice of Canada's politics by helping openly LGBT leaders realize their potential to serve and win elections to all levels of government through candidate support, fundraising, networking, and outreach.
