EDITOR<\/strong>: This past weekend’s Pride may have been the most politicized in twenty years due to events of the past few weeks<\/a>. Today Councillor Giorgio Mammoliti is calling for an end to the City of Toronto’s partial funding of the Pride event<\/a>. The issue surrounds the Queers Against Israeli Apartheid group whose presence caused much controversy last year, and though not officially part of this year’s march, Councillor Mammoliti has decided they were and is using it to further his case and was at Pride on Saturday with a video camera.\u00a0 Joshua Hind, who regularly comments on this blog, wrote a piece on his own blog<\/a> that we are cross-posting here about what he feels is the correct way to respond to Mammoliti, and by extension, the entire Respect for Taxpayers soundbite machine, to ensure events like Pride, and what they mean to the city, endure. What do you think? Picture by morecoffeeplease<\/a>.

\"\"<\/p>\n

Just over a year ago, I wrote a piece called \u201cWhy Pride\u201d in which I argued 2 points related to the 2010 Pride celebrations in Toronto. In brief, they were:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pride should distance itself from aggressive political messages that are not its own, specifically the messages related to Israeli\/Palestinian relations promoted by QuAIA.<\/li>\n
  2. Pride should make better use of their its platform by de-emphasizing the naked, gyrating party and trying to put more media spotlight on their core messages of acceptance and openness.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    On one of those two points, the one dealing with Queers against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA), I feel somewhat validated by the events of the past few months. Pride did distance themselves slightly from QuAIA which was enough (at the time) to get the wolves at City Hall to back off their bull-headed pledge to pull Pride\u2019s funding. But more than that, it put the focus of this year\u2019s parade back squarely where it belongs, on the continuing day-to-day struggles of LGBTQ peoples in Toronto. Even the flap over the absence of Mayor Rob Ford from the parade was at least centred on the idea that a leader of the people of Toronto should represent all the people of Toronto, especially those who have been marginalized.<\/p>\n

    On the second point, concerning the emphasis on crazy fun over strong political messaging, I was quite wrong. I failed to grasp the power of an event where people can be themselves, even if only for an afternoon. I can see now that Pride allows those who perhaps spend much of the year couching their real feelings and personality to break free. In that way, the parade is both precious and beautiful and the way in which it creates spaces where people can feel completely comfortable IS the broader political message. I\u2019d overlooked that in the past and I\u2019m relieved to have seen the error in my thinking.<\/p>\n

    With that mea culpa humbly managed, we must return to the business of the day, which again is centred on QuAIA and the continued funding of Pride by the City of Toronto.<\/p>\n

    On the July 4th<\/sup> edition of the John Oakley show, we were treated to an incomprehensible exchange between city Councillor Giorgio Mammoliti and XTRA writer Andrea Houston. After the dust settled on the largely comical endeavour, we were left with a clear signal that the right-wing faction on Council would be renewing its quest to defund Pride and that they\u2019d once again be using QuAIA as a wedge.<\/p>\n

    Sadly, \u00a0Houston mishandled her opportunity, spent far too much of the interview calling Mammoiliti names and worse, she confused the messaging about whether or not QuAIA had actually marched in either the main Sunday parade or the Dyke March. So intent was Houston on making hay out of Mammoliti\u2019s silly videotaping stunt that she allowed him and his accomplice, John Oakley, to frame the conversation entirely around defunding Pride on the grounds that the festival had somehow broken a promise to sideline QuAIA.<\/p>\n

    Only near the end did Houston clearly state that QuAIA had not marched in the Dyke March or the Sunday parade, but by that time the damage was done. Mammoliti had successfully re-launched his campaign to defund Pride and the pro-Pride contingent was left looking both petty and incapable of providing a compelling argument against defunding.<\/p>\n

    This morning\u2019s AM radio spectacle was the opening salvo in the war to kill Pride. It was the Fort Sumpter of what\u2019s sure to be a long and painful struggle against the forces of the ignorance and fear. Do not for a second underestimate the importance of what transpired on this morning. Mammoliti used a friendly forum to firmly established his message and the Pro-Pride contingent came off as though they weren\u2019t taking any of this seriously.<\/p>\n

    So let\u2019s stop screwing around, \u2018cause this is serious. And while it might be good Twitter fun to take pot shots at Mammoliti for his perceived pervy behaviour, it\u2019ll get you exactly nowhere with the AM radio crowd. And guess what, you need the AM radio crowd. Sorry.<\/p>\n

    If an effective defense of Pride is to be mounted in the coming months, it must, in my opinion, accept the following 3 statements:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. There has never been a persuasive argument for defunding Pride. If ever you are presented with an argument, it will be a bad one. If ever you encounter a person making such an argument, they will not be able to back it up. The whole notion that the city should not fund public festivals is weak and easily attacked. But knowing one is righteous does not assure victory. In fact, it often guarantees the opposite.<\/li>\n
    2. If Pride is to survive it must distance itself from QuAIA and by extension, it must also concede that arguing for Pride in the context of Freedom of Expression is not an effective method of convincing Mayor Ford\u2019s base of Pride\u2019s benefits. They don\u2019t care. They should, it\u2019s horrific that they don\u2019t, but they don\u2019t. That was proven this year and last in reference to QuAIA and Pride and it was really proven at the G20. Please, I get how horrible this statement is and what it says about Canada in the 21st<\/sup> century. But you to deal with reality of reality\u2019s terms. And today, these are the terms.<\/li>\n
    3. Pride and its supporters must set the terms of the debate with the anti-Pride contingent, they must be willing to focus on issues that might appeal to that contingent and they must strongly resist the efforts of the Mayor and his cohorts to engage them in a debate about QuAIA or any related topic.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Pride meets all the requirements of the Respect for Taxpayers model. It provides good return on investment, it\u2019s pro-business, it provides a service to a segment of Toronto\u2019s population and it\u2019s a shining example of a Public Private Partnership (PPP). These are our weapons. They\u2019re clear, they apply to all public festivals and they focus on issues of economic development over social politics. In short, they\u2019re coffee shop topics. That\u2019s why they\u2019ll work.<\/p>\n

      If the numbers I\u2019m hearing are correct, the 2011 Pride celebrations have generated $130 million for business owners in the City of Toronto. That\u2019s a 100x return on the City\u2019s investment. Supporters of Pride should be publicly thanking the City for their wise economic investment in Toronto business owners and for their continued focus on the economic development of the city in these tough times.<\/p>\n

      That\u2019s not enough, you say? Alright, well how about citing Pride as an example of a PPP. No one loves PPP more than the Mayor and his cohorts. Hell, that\u2019s how we\u2019re going to pay for the whole city, right? Private businesses chip in their share of the Parade funding and they get advertising and naming rights in return. No one is asking the City to fund the parade all on their own, just to maintain their share of a successful PPP.<\/p>\n

      And as to these claims that Pride should be self-supporting; well economic stimulus is a loss leader. If Ford and Co. don\u2019t believe that, just cite their pals in Ottawa who\u2019ve given away millions of dollars to boost small business owners. The city\u2019s just keeping in step with their ideological brethren and for a fraction of the federal sum. Again, Pride supporters would do well to praise the City at every opportunity.<\/p>\n

      Finally, Pride and its supporters should follow Mammoliti\u2019s argument and frame this as a debate about the funding of festivals in general. Show the people of this city how their<\/em> modest investment of tax dollars is paid back to small business a hundred-fold. Show them how big festivals like Pride, Luminato, Caribana and Nuit Blanche are key economic drivers and important sources of stimulus in depressed economic times.<\/p>\n

      Yes, I understand that the debate about Pride isn\u2019t about the money for Ford, Mammoliti and any of the other people who currently inhabit the halls of power in Toronto. For them, it\u2019s about not wanting to fund a gay event. But tragic as it may be, that doesn\u2019t matter. Ford wasn\u2019t elected by passion and he can\u2019t be defeated by passion. He was elected with consistent messaging. You need to convince Ford\u2019s base in order to get his support. The methods for motivating his base aren\u2019t a secret, so use them.<\/p>\n

      There is absolutely no benefit derived from launching personal attacks on the very people who control the purse strings to which Pride is desperately beholden.<\/p>\n

      \u201cHey, you\u2019re a dirty homophobe\u2026now see the error of your ways and give me some money.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

      This is flawed logic, based in fantasy and only those blinded by self-righteousness would bother to use it. Make no mistake; this is going to be a war. And if the supporters of Pride continue to fight it indignantly, they will lose. Pride is too vital for its defense to be left to those who think shouting down the other side is an effective debating technique.<\/p>\n

      We have to do better and be better; that\u2019s the only way it\u2019ll get better. This isn\u2019t about appeasement; it\u2019s about fighting the enemy using their own weapons against them. It\u2019s strategy over passion, reason over emotion and finally, Pride over prejudice. This isn\u2019t a battle the forces of good can afford to lose. The death of Pride would be the social equivalent of dropping a bomb on the city. All of the hard-won advancements in universal rights would be wiped out and worse, it would give the purveyors of fear all the momentum they\u2019d need to start chipping away at the rights of other minorities and eventually, everyone.<\/p>\n

      This is the time for mind over heart. So get your head into the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
