New flag raised to mark start of Pride Month in Kincardine

A small group gathered outside the Kincardine library to raise the Pride flag.

This is to mark the start of Pride Month in Canada.

The ceremony this morning featured a new flag.

Organizer of Kincardine Pride Fort Papalia says it is to represent a much broader and inclusive community.

Papalia says there is a sense of an increase in community support for Pride activities.

He says no longer is Kincardine Pride organizing everything Pride-related, the community is starting to take ownership of it.
