West Side Pride celebrates visibility, love and community in Stittsville

West Side Pride returns to Stittsville for its third year — bringing glitter, glam, and grassroots spirit to Ottawa’s west end. We speak with drag queen Skyler Sapphire and drag king BJ about why local Pride events matter and what to expect from this weekend’s celebration.

This is a radio segment I produced for CBC’s Ottawa Morning.
