One gay man is speaking out about Trudeau's announcement of $100 million to create an action plan for 2SLGBTQI+ communities..Martin Masse said: "These programs have nothing to do with helping members of sexual minorities, and everything to do with the Liberals funding far left activists who support them.".Masse's name may sound familiar because he is a PPC spokesperson and also policy director for People’s Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier..Masse told the Western Standard the PPC has been accused in the past of being “homophobic.”."This is one of the most ridiculous and unfounded accusations on the part of our opponents," Masse said.."There are gays and lesbians among our staffers, organizers and candidates. We also had a candidate in Quebec last year who was a transgender women. We don’t make a fuss about it. They’re just Canadians who fight for PPC principles and policies.".Masse said there is no such thing as a "2SLGBTQI+" community.."Gays have nothing in common with trans people, 2S, queer activists, or with any of the dozens of weird genders and sexual identities that crazy woke activists have invented," said Masse.."All there is is a group of government-funded activists who claim to speak in our name and represent our interests, when they do no such thing. They will be using the $100M not to offer useful services to the so-called 'community,' but mostly to push their woke nonsense on the rest of society, lobby to force everyone to use their ridiculous pronouns, encourage youth to transition and mutilate themselves, and generally advocate for far left policies that have nothing to do with being part of a sexual minority.".Masse said: "What most gays, lesbians, trans people, and other members of sexual minorities want is to be treated the same as everyone, have the same rights as everyone, and not being unjustly discriminated against."."That's all the federal government should be concerned with in its areas of jurisdiction and regarding the services it offers. Although there are still communities or social milieus where it's still difficult to openly be part of a sexual minority, we live in one of the most open and inclusive societies in the world, and that equality has essentially been achieved," said Masse.."I have lived openly as a gay man for 40 years and have never felt discriminated. I have lived with my partner in a rural area of Quebec for the past 13 years, and have never felt I was being treated differently by anyone. It's completely ridiculous to have the government spend money on '2SLGBTQI+ communities' that are supposedly 'experiencing additional marginalization' because they're living in rural communities.".Masse said he believes these programs have nothing to do with helping members of sexual minorities, and everything to do with the Liberals funding far left activists who support them.
