Description

July 19 Toronto Fifteen people, representing members of the three major political parties as well as non-aligned individuals, formed the Association of Gay Electors (AGE) to monitor the performance of politicians at all three levels of government in Metro Toronto. AGE held its first public meeting on August 9, 1979, at the 519 Community Centre, at which Tom Warner was elected the first president of AGE. The group's eventual goal was to promote an openly gay candidate for office in municipal elections.
