Description

April 13 Québec Lesbians and gays welcomed the victory of the socially progressive PQ in the Québec provincial election, seeing it as a sign that at least some human rights for lesbians and gay men would remain in Québec for the next four years, even if gay rights were a low priority. In December 1977, a PQ government was the first in Canada to pass an amendment to a provincial human rights code prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation.
