REMercsChamp 09/05/19 6:49:54 PM #1:	https://nowtoronto.com/food-and-drink/food/chick-fil-a-toronto-protest/ Chick-fil-A Toronto is set to hold its grand opening this Friday (September 6) at 1 Bloor East. As opening day nears, a backlash against the company has been gaining steam, largely thanks to their history of anti-gay donations and practices. Animal rights group Liberation T.O. has announced its plans to protest at the restaurant starting the morning of opening day. "We will be asking the public to boycott Chick-fil-A and donate to a local LGBTQ2 charity or animal sanctuary instead we will have donation jars for these," they wrote. LGBTQ community centre The 519 has since thrown their support behind the protest, announcing they would host sign-making at the centre (519 Church St.) starting at 9:30 am before leading a march over to the restaurant. "Chick-fil-A has given millions of dollars to anti-LGBTQ2S organizations, including known hate groups and proponents of conversion therapy, and continues to do so every year," The 519 wrote in a statement. "Many US cities, campuses, and retail outlets have refused to allow Chick-fil-A to locate within their spaces, and/or have been vocal opponents of the corporations hateful values. Toronto and the rest of Canada need to be next in line." In the meantime, it looks like Chick-Fil-A is battening down the hatches against the impending PR firestorm: They've hired PR firm Navigator, famously retained by Jian Ghomeshi, to handle their launch. --- Haha, Yeah!

They literally just donate to Christian groups who are aren't for gay marriage. A position almost no big Democrats held until the giant opinion swing. Not like they are actively campaigning against it. Yet they are literally protesting wearing clothes made by third world children in awful conditions. <cite>MARKINGRAM22 posted [p:927028348] in Protestors...
