That's why I wanted to showcase it. <BR/><BR/>And lots of people can confuse it too with the Centre for Excellence, so I am sure if Vancouverites knew the kind of financial distress that The Centre faces, they probably would help.Raulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09019134499145542436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26823415.post-63290317926597814562007-10-11T02:06:00.000-07:002007-10-11T02:06:00.000-07:00It's great to see the corporations doing more than...It's great to see the corporations doing more than commercializing the Pride Parade, and actually having real policies in place to support diversity in the workplace. <BR/><BR/>And yes, the Centre is a fantastic resource for the queer community throughout this region.
