Description
In the twenty-first century, Canada has a reputation for being one of the most gay-friendly nations on earth, a pioneer in legalizing same-sex marriage and a leader in enacting anti-discrimination laws. Yet for much of the twentieth century, queer Canadians were subject to arrest, imprisonment, and extortion by law enforcement, and to discrimination in employment, housing, immigration, and other areas. Queers Were Here is a groundbreaking historical study of queer life in Canada, from the earliest European settlements to the late twentieth century. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to re-examine Canada's history and culture with fresh eyes.
