GAY TRUTH

MOSCOW, RUSSIA , April 8, 2014, – The leader of one of Russia ’s political parties has introduced an initiative  to modify the country’s constitution to define marriage as being between one man and one woman. Igor Zotov, the sponsor of the measure, is the head of the Russian Pensioner’s Party, in addition to being a Lower House MP.   His proposal would change Article 38 of Russia’s constitution, inserting the line “Motherhood and childhood, family and marriage as a voluntary union between a man and a woman are under the protection of the state.”  Currently, the constitution mentions the “family,” but without defining it.  The proposal would change Article 38 of Russia’s constitution, inserting the line “Motherhood and childhood, family and marriage as a voluntary union between a man and a woman are under the protection of the state.” Zotov said that recent influence from the West and the growing prevalence of same-sex “marriage” necessitates the constitutional amendment.  Th

OTTAWA, February 11, 2014  – The mayor of Ottawa has defended the city as it joins other Canadian municipalities in raising a rainbow flag at city hall during the Olympics in Sochi to protest Russia ’s ban on homosexual propaganda. Mayor Jim Watson is facing criticism because of an exchange with one of his critics on Twitter . The critic criticized the flag, writing, “This is a stupid waste of time. You’ve lost my vote.” Mayor Jim Watson sprays the crowd with a water gun at the 2013 Pride parade in Ottawa . The mayor responded to this, “If you have that point of view, I really don’t want your vote.” The comment has a national pro-family leader up in arms. In an interview, Brian Rushfeldt, executive director of Canada Family Action, said,   “For a mayor to say I don’t want your vote because you disagree with me on an issue – that to me shows the bigotry and the intolerance that is coming from the pro-homosexual community extensively in this day and age.” “Th

Let’s face it, Russians are different: Tsarism, Stalinism, Putinism all set Russia apart and have given the West a superiority complex. But, like the rest of us, Russians like to boast about the high points of their culture and history – Tolstoy, the Bolshoi, Sputnik and all that – which they did to awesome effect in the  opening ceremony  of the Winter Olympics at the weekend. Not even the most expensive – and possibly most impressive -- Olympic extravaganza to date, however, could obliterate the carping about gay rights that has accompanied the Sochi games.  Everyone from UN boss  Ban Ki Moon  to a little old  grandmother  in Berlin has been wagging the finger or waving placards at Russia’s terrible homophobic laws. “More than 200 leading international authors including Salman Rushdie, Margaret Atwood and Jonathan Franzen criticised the anti-gay law as well as blasphemy legislation as a 'chokehold' on creativity, in an open letter published in Britain's

SOCHI, February 11, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A member of the American luge team in Sochi is furious over an ad produced by a Canadian homosexual advocacy group, saying the attempt to portray doubles luging as sexually suggestive in order to promote "gay rights" is “ridiculous” and “sad.” The 33-second video, produced by the Canadian Institute of Diversity and Inclusion (CIDI), features two figures sitting on a luge sled and swaying back and forth suggestively to music with the lyrics "Don't you want me baby.” A screen grab from the sexualized 'gay luge' advertisement. The ad ends with the tagline: “The Games have always been a little gay. Let’s fight to keep them that way.” “It’s a gross misrepresentation of everything. All of it seems like a lie to me,” three-time Olympian luger Christian Niccum told Reuters. “To compare sports to sexuality is ridiculous." The ‘gay luge’ ad can be viewed on Youtube  here .

The cities include Montreal, Ottawa, Vancouver, and St. John’s. Edmonton has plans to fly the rainbow flag as well, according to a  tweet  from Mayor Don Iveson, and the Quebec government will fly one outside Montreal’s Olympic Stadium . New Democrat MPs stand outside Parliament in Ottawa with rainbow scarves to protest Russia's ban on homosexual propaganda. New Democrat MPs also chose to don rainbow scarves and ties to caucus yesterday. "They wanted to send a message before the games to remember that LGBT rights are important here and everywhere,”  said  caucus spokesperson Veronique Breton to CBC News . Russia’s recent laws protecting children from homosexual propaganda have received heavy criticism from many Westerners who condemn them as “anti-gay” and a violatio

VANCOUVER, February 6, 2014  – REAL Women of Canada has blasted the Vancouver City Council for using taxpayers' money to send the city's deputy mayor to the Sochi Winter Olympics to lobby for "gay rights." "It is unacceptable that the Vancouver City Council has forced the taxpayers to fund an expensive ($100,000 plus) junket for veteran gay activist Vancouver city councillor Tim Stevenson to lobby the International Olympic Committee in Russia. His objective is to impose what he calls Canada's ‘social revolution’ on the rest of the world," said Gwendolyn Landolt, National Vice-President of REAL Women of Canada, in the statement. Vancouver Deputy Mayor Tim Stevenson She explained that homosexual special interest groups want “sexual orientation” explicitly included in the IOC Charter. "But the Charter already recognizes that 'Every individual must have the possibility of practicing sport, without discrimination of any kind, in the

LONDON, January 31, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – In the midst of increasing media uproar over the Russian Federation ’s “gay propaganda ban,” the UK ’s Foreign Ministry has waded in, offering funding to homosexualist activist groups. One week before the start of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Britain’s Culture Secretary Maria Miller said it is “common sense” for the UK to fund Russia’s homosexualists’ demonstrations at the event. Miller told the BBC , “It’s very important indeed we use the opportunity of the Winter Games to underline the importance of treating people fairly, which is at the heart of the Olympic charter and important to the Olympic movement.” Numerous pro-homosexual demonstrations are planned as the Sochi Winter Olympics begin next week. She said that the law has placed, “considerable strains on gay rights.” “We are already putting in place additional support to make sure that gay rights organisations have got the sort of support and expertise that I think ca

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, January 30, 2014 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A number of Vancouver taxpayers are furious that they are being forced to foot the bill for a homosexual activist who is a city councillor to travel to Sochi not for the Olympics, but to lobby the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to include sexual orientation in its charter. “We’re not there for the Olympics,” Councillor and Deputy Mayor Tim Stevenson  told  the  Globe and Mail  on Tuesday, a day after his departure. “In fact, the Olympic Games open on the 7th and we come back on the 9th. I want the IOC to have a constitutional change in their charter so that sexual orientation is included in their charter.” Vancouver Deputy Mayor Tim Stevenson is in Sochi lobbying the IOC to include "sexual orientation" in its charter. Stevenson, an ordained minister in the pro-homosexual United Church of Canada (UCC) who is married to UCC gay minister Gary Paterson, will meet with representatives of the IOC,
