I think this mostly has to do with how different communities across Canada celebrate Pride at different times of year. One city near me does Pride in June, the other in August. I don’t know of any one organization which has events throughout the entirety of Pride season.
Halifax has been hosting Pride marches in July for over 30 years. Ottawa has been hosting pride marches in August for over 30 years. Seems silly for both of them to change the dates of their annual marches to June just because that’s when the US decided to do theirs.
Doesn’t make a difference to me. I’m equally aroace the whole year. I also avoid parades like the plague, as I don’t like crowds of loud people. If y’all wanna have parades for a full year, have fun with that. I’ll be at home lol
A quarter of the year seems a bit excessive tbh. A shorter but higher intensity celebration is sufficient, as a member of the plus sign mafia.

I thought that it was a national thing for some reason lol. Makes sense as long as it’s about a month per area.
Seems pretty arbitrary. Why confine Pride events to a single month?
