                <text>Born in 1951 in Aylmer, Quebec, David Kelley began working for the Ottawa Youth Services Bureau upon graduation from Carleton University in 1972. It was at the bureau, in 1977, that he met Tom Stewart, the man who would be his life partner for 19 years. Upon moving to Toronto, David worked professionally with a myriad of organizations, including Central Toronto Youth Services, the Ministry of Community and Social Services, the Ministry of Health's AIDS Bureau, and the People With AIDS Foundation (where he spent a year as Executive Director).&#13;
&#13;
As a volunteer he was an integral part of a staggering number of organizations, both as a founder and participant: Coalition for Services for Gay and Lesbian Youth, Gays and Lesbians in Health Care, Toronto Area Gays and Lesbians, the HIV Mental Health Group, the United Way, AIDS Committee of Toronto, and Positive Youth Outreach. With Tom, he founded a Gay Men's Couples Support Group, and a Gay &amp; Lesbian Bridge Players Group. As a volunteer with the Lesbian Gay Community Appeal, he was an early supporter of the Appeal's Fruit Cocktail productions, and performed in four of those productions as The Apple.&#13;
&#13;
David Douglas Kelley died of AIDS on April 25, 1996. In keeping with his generosity and unrelenting support to the community, he bequeathed money to the Toronto Counseling Centre for Lesbians &amp; Gays, which merged with the Toronto Family Services Association, and now offers services to the gay, lesbian and HIV communities known as the David Kelley Program. It is a wonderful and fitting tribute to his life and work.&#13;
&#13;
Né en 1951 à Aylmer (Québec), David Kelley a commencé à travailler pour le Bureau des services à la jeunesse d'Ottawa après l'obtention de son diplôme de l'Université Carleton en 1972. C'est à ce Bureau, en 1977, qu'il a rencontré Tom Stewart, l'homme qui devait devenir son partenaire pendant 19 ans. Une fois installé à Toronto, David a œuvré de façon professionnelle auprès d'organismes tels que Central Toronto Youth Services, le ministère des Services sociaux et communautaires, le Bureau du SIDA du ministère de la Santé et la Fondation de People With AIDS (où il fut directeur général pendant un an).&#13;
&#13;
En tant que bénévole, il a été intimement associé à une foule d'organismes, soit comme fondateur, soit comme participant, notamment : Coalition for Services for Gay and Lesbian Youth, Gays and Lesbians in Health Care, Toronto Area Gays and Lesbians, HIV Mental Health Group, Centraide, Comité du sida de Toronto et Positive Youth Outreach. Avec Tom, il a fondé un groupe d'appui pour les couples gais et un groupe de gais et lesbiennes jouant au bridge. Son rôle de bénévole auprès de Lesbian Gay Community Appeal l'a amené à appuyer dès ses débuts les productions d'Appeal's Fruit Cocktail et à jouer le rôle de La Pomme dans quatre de ces productions.&#13;
&#13;
David Douglas Kelley est mort du sida le 25 avril 1996. Conformément à sa générosité et à son appui continu à la communauté, il a laissé une somme d'argent au Toronto Counseling Centre for Lesbians &amp; Gays, qui a fusionné avec Toronto Family Services Association et qui offre maintenant des services aux communautés de gais, lesbiennes et personnes atteintes du VIH. Ces services portent le nom de Programme David Kelley, un hommage bien mérité qui souligne sa vie et son œuvre. (2003 Déclaration d’Induction)</text>

                <text>Born in the United States in 1942, Richard Hudler  is a social worker and an activist who has been working tirelessly to advocate for gay and lesbian rights since immigrating to Canada in 1971.&#13;
&#13;
Working for 5 years in Goderich as a counsellor for the Ontario ministry of Community and Social Services, Hudler moved to London Ontario where he pursued a career as a social worker, entering private practice in 1985.&#13;
&#13;
In 1980 Hudler joined the board of HALO, and starting in 1981, became the long serving board president. He represented HALO through the Project Guardian scandal with the local police, and in 1995 Hudler filed an official complaint with the Ontario Human Rights Commission against London Mayor Diane Haskett when she refused to issue a Gay Pride Proclamation.&#13;
&#13;
An early member of the Coalition for Lesbian and Gay Rights in Ontario, Hudler continues his activism through Queer Ontario, a provincial network of individuals — and their allies committed to questioning, challenging, and reforming the laws, institutional practices, and social norms that regulate queer people.&#13;
&#13;
He has a BA (Roosevelt University, 1965) and a Master in Social Work (Wilfred Laurier University, 1978).</text>

                <text>"Thirty years ago I didn't want tolerance. I didn't want my lover and companion Ron Shearer and I to be tolerated. Nor did I want other lesbians and gay men to be merely tolerated. I wanted us, all of us, to be understood and acknowledged and yes, loved, in our sexual orientation. Through the efforts of thousands of lesbians and gay men and our straight friends, family, and supporters, much has been accomplished in Canada and around the world to achieve those goals. But there is still much to do. Today I am much more tolerant of the word and concept of tolerance, but we must constantly be on guard to maintain our hard-won gains, for they can be easily lost."

                <text>"In 1969 when I became President of the University of Toronto Homophile Association, I identified myself, both personally and publicly, as a gay male. In my work in the gay movement in Toronto and Ottawa up to the mid 1970s I sought to come to terms with that identity and counter those forces which saw me, and my sisters and brothers, only in those terms. For the National Gallery of Canada I have organized exhibitions of Canadian Painting in the Thirties (1975), of the photographs of John Vanderpant (1976), of the paintings of James Wilson Morrice (1992) and of The Group of Seven (1995) among others. I now identify myself as a gay, male, middle-class art historian and civil servant with numerous, additional, qualifying adjectives, both positive and more dubious."

                <text>Tolerance, for me, is sitting on a subway train in the middle of the day right here in Toronto, the city of my choice, and to look up from my reading and realize, out of the blue, that everyone in this car is of a different colour, of skin I mean, of a different race, from a different part of the world. There are, I swear to myself, people here from at least twenty countries on six continents - not bad when you consider that there are only about -fifty people, in total, in this particular car. And I can hear the muted ebb and flow of at least a dozen different languages. Music to my ears. Music to my soul.&#13;
&#13;
And all these people? They're not killing each other, not like they are in so many countries the whole world over. They're not shooting each other, not chopping off each other's limbs with machetes, not blowing up each other's pubs, cars, or children with bombs, grenades or land mines. They're standing and sitting right here together, respecting each other's sense of privacy, each other's differentness. And me, as a Cree-Canadian with very brown skin? I fit right in. I'm just a regular, ordinary part of this fabulous tapestry. And I love it. This is my home, I say to myself, my city, my country. It may not be perfect. But it sure is pretty darn good. Hey. Know what? I think they should re-name "Toronto" "Tolerance". Wouldn't that be neat? I mean, think of it. As you travel the world, whenever you are asked where you come from, you could turn to them and say, "Me? I come from Tolerance. Tolerance, Ontario. Tolerance, Ontario, Canada."

&#13;
Reclaiming our spiritual health and wholeness is a crucial step in the full development of our community. When we found ourselves excluded, we determined to create for ourselves a safe place. Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto has been that for myself and thousands of others. When we found the laws of the land made us second class citizens, we determined to have them changed. Canada has been a place where that has been possible.&#13;
&#13;
May we continue to ensure that faith and freedom are available to our people here and around the world. Tolerance seldom is given as a gift. We have had to work for it in our families, work places, worship places and governments. The Gay and Lesbian Community is a significant force for justice and spiritual health. It has been a challenging and glorious quest." (Rev. Brent Hawkes, Toronto, 2000 Induction Statement)&#13;

                <text>John Greyson is one of Canada's most important filmmakers. His films, Zero Patience, an extravagant musical about AIDS, and Lilies, a luscious revenge tale, gained Greyson an international following. His earlier works, Urinal and The Making of Monsters, established Greyson as "one of queer culture's strongest Canadian voices, addressing issues of sexuality and the gay image in both gay and mainstream society."(ICON, May 1995). As film critic Cameron Bailey said of Zero Patience, "For 10 years, Greyson has made videotapes to shake down the house of homophobia and erect a pulsing new monument to gay identities in its place" (NOW, March 2, 1994).
