1993 * The Other Side Club (Cambridge) Opened
In 1993 Rick Lethbridge and Mark Jordan opened The Other Side Club on Dickson
Street in Cambridge; the club ran until early 1995.
It was a dance bar with monthly live entertainment events such as Open Mind (a popular folk/rock
duo of the time), Rita Chiarelli (blues artist), Carrie Chestnutt (sax and vocalist), female
impersonation artists and many more.
The bar was famous for its free nightly buffet.
When the bar closed, missing the community involvement, Rick and Mark started
Outlook Magazine.

1992, February 5 (Friday) * Imprint Art/Theatre Preview: Remains to be seen
This article is a preview of an U of W Drama Department's theatrical production titled, “Unidentified Human Remains and the True Nature of Love.” The play was scheduled to run from February 10-13th, 1993. The play tells the stories of 7 characters whose lives intertwine, and covers topics such as “prostitution, drug use, eating disorders,
friendship, marriage, homosexuality, casual sex, and more.” There were some complaints surrounding the play for various reasons in regards to nudity and violence,
and a complaint made of particular relevance to the 2SLGBTIA+ community.
In the article, the writer mentions that a complaint was made from GLLOW, who stated that “the term 'controversial lifestyles' in publicity is inappropriate for a play portraying homosexual acts.”

A letter to the editor written by Director of GLLOW at the time, Chris Chin.
“Re: "Remains to be seen" (Imprint, Friday 5 February). As the director of GLLOW, I wish to clarify the position of this organization with respect to the ad campaign for "Unidentified Human Remains and the True Nature of Love". Contrary to what Ms. Epps' article might suggest, GLLOW as an organization has no complaint with the term "controversial lifestyles". If individual GLLOW members have telephoned complaints to the Drama Department, they have done so without my knowledge and speak only for themselves and not for the organization as a whole. Chris Chin, Director, Gay & Lesbian Liberation of Waterloo.”

1993, March 5 (Friday) * Imprint News: Elmira newspaper editorial slams bisexual lifestyle, draws complaints
This article reports on how The Elmira Indpendent newspaper stopped printing the ad for the South Western Ontario Bisexual Network (SWOBN),
which had run in their classifieds section from November to January 1992. On February 22, 1993, Bob Verdun (the editor in chief of the Elmira newspaper),
ran an editorial condemning bisexuality, and also published misinformation about HIV/AIDS. The Federation of Students Human Rights Board and GLLOW worked together
to prepare a complaint to the Ontario Human Rights Commission and the Ontario Press Council, on the grounds of it being hateful literature and as Chris Chin, director of GLLOW at the time stated,
"at the very least as misinformation". The human rights complaint would also address the grounds of SWOBN being discriminated against because of sexual orientation. GLLOW president at the time, Jim Parrott,
said the the editorial was "mean-spirited" and expressed concern that there might be a backlash against gay & bisexual individuals in Elmira.

1993, March 5 (Friday) * Letters to the Editor: Ecce Homo
This letter to the editor, entitled Ecce Homo, was written in response to Justin Wells' “My New Revised Feminism...” (Imprint, Feb 26), of his take on what was wrong with the feminist movement at the time.
The writer of this letter self-identified as a feminist who “seek[s] healing in a broken world...I seek a genuine acknowledgement that our society continues to oppress women, people of colour,
homosexual people, differently-abled people and the poor.” Letter writer, Heather McCance, a Peace and Conflict/Religious Studies student states, critiques many of Wells' points that suggest hyperindependence and increased aggression from women
as solutions to what he deems issues in the feminist movement at the time. McCance states, “Men have always tried to dictate how women are
supposed to think, look, and act. Justin Wells has now continued this tradition in trying to dictate to me how I should respond to male oppression and our misogynist society. Rather ironic, isn't it?”.

Writer Nicki Beume (Alumna) states, “I find the violent language of the "new revised feminist" inadequate and short sighted. A new world of gender equality based on danger, fear, mutilation, and suffering cannot sustain valuable change...I look forward to Justin Wells' next political feature. Perhaps Native issues, the black movement,
or gay liberation organizations, too, require such insightful direction?!”

This article, entitled A happy, carefree dyke was part of a special feature of this issue of The Imprint to celebrate International Women's Day.
This is a short love letter to lesbians. Writer, Gretchen Zimmerman, says, “A happy, carefree dyke is even harder to work into the world picture
since her "outness," however large or small, says "I'm proud. I'm happy, I'm me, I'm a lesbian - get used to it." It's not up to lesbians to babysit the straight world, for they
should be old enough to take care of themselves...Women who love women: dykes, lesbians, gay women, queers. Call us what you will. We're here, so get used it.
I'm a dyke, I'm proud! Happy International Women's Day to all my lesbian sisters and to all women everywhere.”

1993, March 5 (Friday) * Imprint Features: The Second Annual International Women's Day Rag - Toto, wake me up when we get to ... A homo-positive Canada
This article (entitled “Toto, wake me up when we get to ... ... A homo-positive Canada”)
was part of a special feature of this issue of The Imprint to celebrate International Women's Day. This article covers the state of LGBTQ+ legal and civil rights
at the time, where “It seems almost every week we hear of another court decision that is changing the face of lesbian and gay rights in Canada.”
The article also shares that Carol Allen, a feminist lawyer from Toronto, who has worked with the Legal Education Actiom Fund (LEAF), will be speaking on Friday, March 12th in celebration of International Women's Week.
Ms. Allen also planned to discuss lesbian rights, specifically. The writer, Tammy Speers, states: “We are at a crossroads today. Canadian society is poised to either head into the Twenty-first century
by giving equal rights to lesbians and gays or we will regress and re-enter the repressive conservative state that has existed in the past. We must tell our legislators that Canada is ready for an equal, unoppressive society.
We must educate ourselves so we know what we have left to fight...”

lesbian bookstores.” The writer acknowledges the hypocrisy of Canadian Customs and says, “If it is legal and right for
Canada Customs to keep gay and lesbian, or any alternative books out of Canada in order to protect us, where is the RCMP protecting us from the likes of
Heritage Front hate mongers and loony university professors?”

This is an article covering the news of how the University of British Columbia voted to shut down their student newspaper, The Ubyssey, for a variety of reasons. Of relevance to the rainbow community about this
occurrence, is a mention of how the type of content The Ubyssey publishes were contested: “The topic of content was addressed...the example of a "sex issue" which had been published. Apparently, the
gay and lesbian contigency on campus were outraged over censorship, and felt that they were being excluded from the paper.”

A news profile covering the concerning rise of neo-Nazi groups operating in Kitchener-Waterloo at the time, with a focus on a low-profile group,
the Church of the Creator (COTC). The writer, Stuart O'Grady, begins “Residents in the Kitchener Waterloo area were shocked recently
by the wave of racist rallies in the downtown core. The rallies prompted local anti-racists, including many WPIRG members, to support
a demonstraion against the supremacists. The demonstration, which took place five weeks ago, almost turned violent when anti-racists
charged the white supremacists. This article looks at one of the supremacist organizations.”

1993, July 30 (Friday) * Imprint - Arts/Classifieds - No Sammy's, but lots of Dianes
This article was part of a movie review series entitled
“Cinema Scope”; the article reviews Last Call at Maud's, a
documentary about an iconic lesbian bar in San Francisco that unfortunately shut down in 1989. The article was printed in advance of
the Princess Cinema showing this documentary as part of their “August emphases on non-fiction and homosexuality.”
The review is overall positive and moving in its portrayal of over 20 years of
Maud's serving as a lesbian organizing space, a safe space for lesbians - despite the police raids and obstacles that Maud's staff and patrons faced, and a place of celebration and entertainment. The Princess Cinema screened the film on 1993, August 16th and 17th.
[Note; The title of the article is a reference to the two lead characters in the sit-com “Cheers”.]

1993, October 8 (Friday) * The dyke dilemma
In a rather long special to the Imprint, writer Tammy Speers reflects on contemporary issues facing lesbians by recounting
a recent visit (Friday, October 1, 1993) from “JoAnn Loulan, a California sex therapist specializing in lesbian sexuality,
made a rare appearance in Waterloo.” Speers writes on some key themes from Loulan's talk including complexities of gender presentation
for queer and lesbian women. Speers writes aptly on the rise of "lesbian chic" as a style, and that the mainstream society's
fascination and “attempt to assimilate lesbian culture into the status quo...JoAnn could not stress enough that lesbians are not the same as
straight people as much as society wants to claim we are "just like you."... We are the culture that has slumber parties consisting of endless processing about
life.” She also covers how Loulan talked about “the eternal butch/femme debate” - a conversation still happening in 2022. The overall experience of Speers (and her mother) attending Loulan's talk was overwhelmingly positive.

1993 * Out & About Radio Show
In an archived version of the Out & About website taken by the Wayback Machine
on 1998, January 11, we read:
“Out and About was created in 1993 by David Grant.
He hoped it would serve as a resource for the gay community.
A way to foster unity in Waterloo region.
After his death in 1995, his producer David Callander took over the hosting duties along
with close friend Alan Fraser, who became the show's producer.
Another friend, Steve Clark, joined us as a regular co-host.”
Other hosts and contributors at that time included Brenda Spencer, Carl Borrowman and
Steve Brown.
A special feature was their ongoing soap-opera comedy, The Nelson Schaeffer Follies.
Out & About was broadcast from the community radio station CKWR 98.7 FM in Waterloo
for a number of years before ceasing.
