Many of these employees and personnel were forced to resign\, ruining lives and careers. But they fought back\, and survivors won a major class action lawsuit against the government in 2018. \nLe gouvernement canadien a enquêté sur des milliers d’employés\, de militaires et de membres de la GRC du 2SLGBTQI+ pendant la guerre froide. Beaucoup de ces employés et du personnel ont été forcés de démissionner\, ruinant des vies et des carrières. Les survivants ont gagné un important procès collectif contre le gouvernement en 2018 en raison de leur riposte. \nIn partnership with the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and Calgary Pride.
