Description

May Vancouver Project Open Doors, many of whose members belonged to the CGAA, received an Opportunities for Youth grant for $9,329 to study social services for gays in the greater Vancouver area. Project Open Doors existed from May 29 to September 15 and produced the eighty-two-page Open Doors: A Manual on the Prejudice and Discrimination against Gay People, by John Greenfield, Dick Rulens, and Dieter Grapp. Other participants in the project included Cathy Nittolo and Debie Zazubeck. During the course of the project, several Vancouver radio personalities and columnists attacked Project Open Doors. Jack Webster of CJOR, for example, described Open Doors as a project "to provide a bilingual handbook for French Canadian queers in Vancouver."
