Canada’s CIBC bank paints ATMs in rainbow colors to support homosexuality

-

The Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC) is defending the decision of a local Ottawa branch to paint its ATMs located in the front entrance in rainbow colours in support of homosexuality. 
Ottawa resident Donald Bruneau said he was shocked when he saw the rainbow painted ATMs while making a recent trip to the branch located at 84 Bank Street in Ottawa. 
“When I asked the teller the meaning behind the rainbow colors, she replied, ‘Equality.’ When I asked her if they would be willing to paint an image of the Christian cross that I wear around my neck on an ATM to celebrate Christian equality, she did not answer,” he told LifeSiteNews. 
Bruneau said that CIBC’s decision to push the “gay agenda” on its ATMs has made him decide to switch to a different bank. 

“When I use a bank, I simply want to perform financial transactions and not be confronted in my face with propaganda from the homosexual movement,” he said. 
LifeSiteNews reached out to branch manager Robert Jenkins for comment, but Jenkins did not return messages left on his voicemail as well as an email. 
LifeSiteNews then reached out to CIBC’s corporate head office located in Toronto. Olga Petrycki, CIBC’s Director of Public Relations, responded that CIBC is “proud” to support the LGBT movement. 
“CIBC is proud to be an inclusive organization that supports the diversity of Canada and our communities,” she said in an email response. 
On its website, CIBC states that it was one of the first corporations in Canada to “dedicate an entire month to the celebration of diversity” through “diversity education” of its about 40,000 employees. It also has its own employee-led “Pride Network” to support “gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans-identified employees.”
Last May at the Rome Life Forum LifeSiteNews editor-in-chief John Henry Westenspoke about what he believes is the forthcoming “imposition” of the homosexual ideology on individuals through pressures exerted by huge corporations, such as banks, who have signed onto promoting the ‘diversity and equality’ agenda. 
“We have seen the financial coercion go from the international level to the national. As I mentioned earlier we have also begun to see it affect certain individuals. I would suggest it will not be too long before that pressure is applied to each individual,” he said. 
The list of other banks which have gone out of their way to show their support for homosexuality includes, but is not limited to, Toronto-Dominion Bank, the Royal Bank of Canada, as well as the Bank of Montreal. 
Westen fears the time is coming when individuals who refuse to embrace the homosexual agenda will have their financial freedoms stripped away as a penalty for not being an “upstanding citizen.” 
Bruneau said that Christians need to start seeing the signs of the times with regard to the advancement of homosexuality. 
“We Christians need to wake up, or we are going to be swallowed by this movement. I decided to leave this bank as a way of making a statement of my beliefs as a Christian,” he said.

A Catholic school board in Ontario will vote next week on a motion to fly the rainbow-colored homosexual pride flag at all board-run schools during the month of June. Halton Catholic District School Board (HCDSB) Trustee Brenda Agnew gave notice of her motion titled “supporting our diverse school community” during an April 6 board meeting. Quoting Pope Francis along with LGBT talking points about “equity and inclusion,” the motion calls for the Board’s Director of Education Pat Daly to “direct all HCDSB schools including the Catholic Education Centre to fly the Pride flag during the month of June starting with 2021.” The motion is expected to be voted on by the Board at their next meeting on April 20. With nine trustees, the motion requires five votes to pass. A tied vote results in a fail. The HCDSB states on its website that its mission is to provide “excellence in Catholic education by developing Christ-centred individuals enabled to transform society.” The Catholic Church, basing i...

Christian baker must make ‘wedding’ bakes for gay couples, court rules

DENVER, CO ,  – A Colorado board has ruled that a Christian business owner must make wedding cakes for homosexual "marriages" despite his religious objections. Business owner Jack Phillips came under legal fire in 2012, when he refused to bake a cake for Dave Mullins and Charlie Craig , who had traveled to Massachusetts for a marriage license, and wanted to celebrate in their home state. They sued on the basis of a state law that prevents the application of religious beliefs if one owns a business. The Commission's ruling, which was issued verbally on Friday, orders Phillips to report every three months for the next two years on anti-discrimination training for his staff, and any customers who are refused service at his establishment. "I can believe anything I want, but if I'm going to do business here, I'd ought to not discriminate against people," said one of the Civil Rights Commission 's seven members in a public statement.

Australia: Gay Hate tribunals are coming

Are Hate Tribunals Are Coming In Canada , it is considered discriminatory to say that marriage is between a man and a woman or that every child should know and be raised by his or her biological married parents.  It is not just politically incorrect in Canada to say so; you can be saddled with tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees, fined, and forced to take sensitivity training. Anyone who is offended by something you have said or written can make a complaint to the Human Rights Commissions and Tribunals. In Canada, these organizations police speech, penalizing citizens for any expression deemed in opposition to particular sexual behaviors or protected groups identified under “sexual orientation.” It takes only one complaint against a person to be brought before the tribunal, costing the defendant tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. The commissions have the power to enter private residences and remove all items pertinent to their investigations, checkin...
