Pride at Work
Archive Now Available!
In a 2015 survey, Pride at Work Canada asked Canadians whether or not discrimination against gender and sexual minorities was an issue. Depending on who you asked, the responses were very different: 67% of straight, cisgender respondents said there was no discrimination whatsoever and 62% of sexual and gender minority respondents said they had either witnessed or experienced discrimination on the grounds of gender expression, gender identity and/or sexual orientation.
