Recently North Huron council’s bigotry and homophobia went viral when they refused to allow a Rainbow Flag to be flown on any town property. Council falsely claimed “no flags or banners other than the federal, provincial, and municipal flags will be flown on township property.”
In the past Council has had no problem with other banners and flags on every light standard on Josephine Street, which is a clear violation of the alleged “policy” they used to deny the Rainbow Flag request. There is zero doubt that North Huron council puppeteered by bernie bailey is filled with unbridled hate and intolerance toward all.
In response to this Buck & Jo’s will be displaying the rainbow flag during business hours in the heart of Wingham. It will be hard to drive through Wingham and miss it. A conversation starter and a constant reminder of council’s homophobia and hatred. It’s no wonder they rejected a symbol of tolerance and acceptance.
There is nothing wrong with North Huron council that changing it completely wouldn’t fix. The next municipal election is 24Oct2022
