What happened
A coalition of 45 2SLGBTQ+, feminist, and human rights groups, including Spectrum, is calling on the federal government to renew and significantly increase funding for the 2SLGBTQ+ Action Plan. The plan, launched by Justin Trudeau in August 2022, originally earmarked $100 million over five years for support across the country. The coalition is demanding the funding be raised to $450 million.

Why it matters
The action plan allocates 75 per cent of its funding to community organizations. The pressure to increase this federal funding could significantly alter the financial support available to community groups and related non-profit sectors.
