Outlaws & Inlaws - Equality GALA!

Come join us for an evening of good food, great company and lively entertainment as we celebrate another year of advancing lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered equality rights!

Date: Tuesday, June 22, 2004
Time: Reception: 6:00 p.m.
Dinner: 6:45 p.m.
Place: Berkeley Church, 315 Queen St E, Toronto

with comic Maggie Cassella! Musical Theatre Star Mary McCandless!
Special Honoree Martin Cauchon, former Minister of Justice (the person who convinced Jean Chrétien not to appeal the Ontario Court of Appeal marriage decision)

It’s been a year to remember! With a federal election just around the corner and Pride season soon upon us, come join us at the beautiful Berkeley Church - an 1871 Heritage venue - to celebrate our status as legal In-laws and support our ongoing work in the many areas where we remain legal Outlaws! Our 2004 Equality Gala will benefit Egale Canada, Canadians for Equal Marriage, and ARC (Allied Rainbow Communities) International in their much-needed efforts to advance equality for our communities.

Join internationally-acclaimed comedian Maggie Cassella as MC, former Justice Minister Martin Cauchon, Musical Theatre Star Mary McCandless who will be launching her new CD, the Toronto Men’s Chorus Forte, along with many other special guests, as we dine on a fabulous buffet dinner, enjoy a silent auction, door prizes, and great company! (We already have some great silent auction items, but feel free to contact Kim Vance at kim@arc-international.net if you have an item to contribute.)
