The fourth unnumbered page featured an article by Allison MacFarlane and Jim Parrott entitled Can We Talk, which described plans to start up a GLLOW discussion group to support members of the community through sharing of personal experiences; the article concluded with a list of potential topics. The page also included an ad for the Spartacus '91/92 directory/guide for gay men. The fifth unnumbered page was a piece by Peter J. Dillon called Travelogue: Where are Your Rights Respected? which spoke about human rights for and personal safety in various parts of the world.

The eighth unnumbered page included GENERAL NOTICES, and also instruction for supplying information to the PTCC. The ninth unnumbered page had the title Fruit Cocktail '91 and reported on the gay and lesbian vaudeville show of that name held in Toronto on November 28, 1991.

1992, January 20? (Monday?) * K-W Record: Arts shows give local AIDS group fund-raising boost

Arts shows give local AIDS group fund-raising boost. This article by Pauline Durichen occurred after the recent January 18 concert, and may have appeared in the January 20 issue of The Record (the date on our photocopy is unclear). The article was based largely on an interview with Michael Grit, fundraising co-ordinator for ACCKWA. Grit emphasized the usefulness of shows in the areas of music, theatre and cabarets - pointing in particular to the opera gala on Saturday that raised $1,600 for ACCKWA, and also a visit by Andrew Llyod Weber's Starlight Express that raised $6,200 through the sale of autographed posters. Grit referred to a couple of future events, included performances of Arthur Miller's play The Crucible. An interesting piece of information is that ACCKWA's counselling and support services were at the time in quarters rented from St. Mary's Hospital, and they were reaching the point where larger premises and more staff might soon be needed.

[source: Jim Parrott.]

1992, January * GLOBAL: The Beginnings

An article by Feaz Rahim, on p.3 of the March 1992 Issue of the Pink Triangle Community Calendar, began: “On February 6, Peter J. Dillon, U of W Geography student and GLLOW member, addressed a sociology class at Wilfrid Laurier University on the topics of homophobia and being gay.” Towards the end of this article was the statement: “Dillon's speech at Laurier, however, comes at a critical time because in the last couple of weeks there has been a concentrated effort to set up a gay and lesbian association there.” This would place the beginnings of GLOBAL around late January, 1992. [It would be some time before the group was actually set up.]

1992, February * Pink Triangle Community Calendar (PTCC)

This issue had 12 unnumbered pages printed on pink paper. Its format size was 21.6 cm x 14.0 cm (8.5" x 5.5"). It also had a one-sheet insert on white paper of the same size (a subscription form printed on one side and information about advertisement rates on the other side).

The front page of this issue was headed An Open Letter From CLGRO in which CLGRO reported that they had recently applied for a grant from Health & Welfare Canada: Proposal to Identify and Address the Health Care and Social Service Needs of Sexual Minorities in Ontario. In the letter, they asked for letters of support. The second unnumbered page contained an article by Chris Chin entitled Youth Support. This article noted that since Lesbian & Gay Youth of Kitchener had folded, there was little local support for LBG youth. It mentioned that a high school student in Cambridge was interested in starting up a youth group. It also referred to a new group that was still in the process of being set up: Lesbian & Gay Youth of Waterloo Region (LGYWR.

The third unnumbered page consisted of two articles: one by Chris Chin, who reported on the January 2 bomb attack on Little Sister's Book and Art Emporium (in Vancouver), a major gay and lesbian bookstore in Western Canada; the other article by Allison MacFarlane, who reported on attending the reception celebrating the 17th anniversary of the Coalition for Lesbian and Gay Rights in Ontario.

The fourth unnumbered page featured a Travelogue article on Los Angeles by Chris Chin; it ran to the fifth unnumbered page, which concluded with an announcement about the Pan-Canadian Conference on Lesbian and Gay Rights to be held in Vancouver early in the Fall. The sixth and seventh unnumbered pages listed the February Events (which are listed in this Chronology) and radio shows, as well as bars and clubs. The bars and clubs listed were Circles! (Kitchener); The Robin's Nest (Cambridge); The Pink Zone (Kitchener); and 33 Mac (Guelph).

The eighth unnumbered page included General Notices, and also an ad describing the services of the AIDS Committee of Guelph and Wellington County. The ninth unnumbered page included a spotlight on the Sexuality Resource Centre at the UW. It also made tributes to Aaron Fricke (Brother of the Month) and Heather Bishop (Sister of the Month). The tenth unnumbered page indicated that Barry W was interested in starting up a baseball league in KW, and that there was also talk of starting up a bowling league. This page concluded with a review by John Paul Baguley of the Porphyria Unbound art exhibit in the Start Gallery.

The eleventh unnumbered page was a full-page ad for a Cabaret/Dance organized by ACCKWA and ACGWC at the Loft in Guelph.

The following organizations were listed on the twelfth unnumbered page: AIDS Committee of Cambridge, Kitchener-Waterloo and Area (ACCKWA); AIDS Committee of Guelph and Wellington County (ACGWC); Free Spirit Community Church (FSCC); Gay and Lesbian Liberation of Waterloo (GLLOW); Guelph Gay and Lesbian Equality (GGLE); Lesbian and Gay Youth of Waterloo Region; OWLS (a privately organized social/cultural group for women over 30); and Women Out Of Doors (WOODS).

1992, March * Pink Triangle Community Calendar

This issue of the Pink Triangle Community Calendar consisted of 12 regular pages, with an additional sheet containing information about subscriptions and advertising rates. The masthead (on p.2) stated “The PTCC has been published through the efforts of volunteers, for the most part students, with considerable financial support provided by the Gay & Lesbian Liberation of Waterloo. The PTCC staff of publishers and editors includes: Chris Chin, Tony Diep, Peter J. Dillon and Feaz Rahim.” The issue included an article by Peter J. Dillon entitled “Death of University Groups,” indicating, among other things, that the University of Western Ontario had been without a campus group since the previous year, and that there were currently attempts at Wilfrid Laurier University to “start up a gay and lesbian group but the WLU Student Union requirements stipulate that a minimum of seven full-time students and an executive support the group.” Dillon indicates that this sort of requirement is problematic at many universities, where students are often still coming out. There is a note describing Women Out of Doors (WOODS), and indicating that they had already been in existence for three and a half years. There was also a piece by a heterosexual person arguing for understanding amongst people of different sexualities. There was an article by Feaz Rahim about a talk by Peter J. Dillon to a sociology class at Wilfrid Laurier University on the topics of homophobia and being gay, a notice about GLLOW's Speaker's Bureau, an ad for the AIDS Committee of Guelph and Wellington County, an article by Peter J. Dillon about the bars and clubs in Montreal's gay village, an ad for Lesbian & Gay Youth of Toronto, an ad for Harbinger of Spring Women's Dance in Kitchener, a listing of events in March, some “Outings” (events that would involve some travel), a listing of local bars and clubs, some general notices, a listing of local radio shows, a listing of local organizations, information on the GLLOW Line, short biographies on two famous queer people (Eleanor Roosevelt and Leonard Bernstein), a cartoon and a poem, some classified ads, and a list of some local women's music concerts in March.

This issue of the Pink Triangle Community Calendar consisted of 12 pages.

The ptcc staff of publishers and editors are: Chris Chin, Tony Diep, and Peter J. Dillon.” The issue included an review (beginning on p.2 and concluded on p.8) by Lynne Waddington of the First Annual London Lesbian Film Festival. There was a letter to the Editor by Jim Parrott about the GLLOW Discussion Group, and a letter by Bob Bawboza about how the RCMP outed thousands of gays during the 1960s. There was a travelogue piece by Chris B. about a gay woman's experience in Montreal, a report by Chris Chin about the recent formation of the Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Collective of the Student Union of the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, an ad for a “Summer T-Dance” on May 3, 1992 at Circles (sponsored by ACCKWA, GGLE and GLLOW), and an article by Chris Chin on the dearth of sexuality-related campaigns mounted by provincial and federal agencies and organizations. This was followed by a two-page listing of events from May 2 to June 7, brief biographies of two famous queer-folk (Rob Eichberg and Natalie Goldberg), a list of local organizations, bars and clubs, radio shows, some “Outings” (events that would involve some travel), general notices, an ad for a series of 7 gay & lesbian films to be shown at the Princess Cinema from May 6 to June 17, and a page of classified ads.

Veldhuizen also refers to GLLOW, “the campus gay and lesbian association” for readers looking "to take one step further in their coming out process", and to to get more involved in rainbow community on U of W campus.

1992, November 27 (Friday) * Imprint News Article: MathSoc caught by homophobic incident

This article covered the Math Society's election campaign, where large banners were defaced by the self-defined anonymous satirical group, Mathbooze, in the Math and Computer building's main entrance with slogans with homophobic slurs (“Vote Mathbooze — or be a big fag ”). A member of GLLOW contacted the Math Society via e-mail to address how offensive these were, specifically “pointing to the fact that approximately ten percent of MathSoc members are gay or lesbian”, and to insist they be removed. Math Society Computer Director at the time, Murray Kucherawy, stated that the posters were not approved by MathSoc officials and would be taken down. There was a delay in taking the banner down, but after the banner was removed and apologies given, “the complainant” [GLLOW] was satisfied with the situation.

1992, December 4 (Friday) * Imprint News Analysis: Farcical apology for homophobic banner

This article was written in follow-up to an article in the past issue, Volume 15, No. 19 regarding when the satirical group MathBooze hung up banners with homophobic slurs in the main entrance of the Math and Computer Building during the Math Society's election. This article is responding to the hypocritical nature and hollowness of the apology issued from MathBOOZE. The Imprint writer, Iain Anderson, addresses MathBOOZE's comfort in anonymity and that, “the effect of their apology is, unfortunately, both ludicrous and minimal, wrapped inside their faceless identity”. Anderson also addresses MathBOOZE's history of sexist messaging. Anderson also reports that the president of the Math Society and Dean of Mathematics at the time plan to discuss a future course of action. Anderson ends with, “If they are content with the anonymous apology note, they will be sending a dangerous and damaging signal to their membership and the university community. A group like MathBooze should have to do more than just produce a blank apology note as a sign of their remorse.”
