On Tuesday, the Ontario NDP (New Democratic Party) called on the government to establish community safety zones to safeguard drag artists and LGBTQ communities from harassment and intimidation during their performances.
According to Kristyn Wong-Tam, who is introducing a private member’s bill, 100-meter safety zones around drag show venues are necessary because drag performances have been the subject of organized protests in both the United States and Canada.
“The topic that brings us here is deadly serious,” she said at a press conference. “The rise of hate and violence facing the 2SLGBTQI+ communities, including the drag artists, happening across Ontario and right (across) the nation has been alarming.”
