Canada's LGBTQ2S+ Community Is Now '1 Million Strong' But Still Faces Big Systemic Issues

Data from Statistics Canada on the country's queer community revealed that as of 2018, there were approximately one million LGBTQ2S+ people in Canada.

Canada's statistical agency released the data on June 16 to create a "portrait" of the "demographic and social profile of Canada's diverse LGBTQ2+ communities" — however, much of the data "[focuses] on LGB Canadians (lesbian, gay, bisexual), since Statistics Canada has been collecting detailed information on these communities since 2003."

Couples Who "Fight" More, Love Each Other More

Let me just start by saying that this article is not meant to offend anyone, and that if you are in a loving, caring, conflict free relationship, please move on and read my article on the unicorn boyfriend (since you clearly have one).

Here I'm talking about those couples who constantly argue with each other yet somehow end up being the strongest, most loving couples you know. Well, truth is there's a scientific reason behind that.

10 Signs He's Playing You Harder Than A Bass Guitar

You meet this guy. He seems to be everything you've ever wanted. He is smooth, charming, beautiful, and can keep up a conversation with pretty much anyone in sight. And the chemistry... Let's not even get started on the obvious magnetic field that surrounds the both of you when you're in the same room. Sounds like a one way ticket to paradise. Not too fast, sparky.

Yes, Irina did confirm that Fvckboys make the best husbands, but that's when they are ready to settle down. What happens before the fact? How do you differentiate between "I want to settle" and "I want to fvck your brains out multiple times, and then eventually ghost you". It's a tough call. Especially since Montreal is filled with knockout guys and girls, that are playing the game better than the pickup guru Strauss in the book itself.

You had a rough breakup and are finally slowly moving on, when, all of a sudden, boom! You get that dreaded text message from your ex saying something completely random and seemingly harmless, like "Adele's song made me think of you..." How do you react? Do you reply?

Why I'm Already Sick And Tired Of The Snow

Okay fine, so it's only the first real snow fall of the season. And there isn't even that much snow on the ground, barely an inch. But I for one am sick and tired of the snow, and so are you.

Snow used to be this amazing magical thing that happened every year when you were a kid. It was synonymous with awesomeness. Imagine having a playground fall from the sky for you to play in. You could build snowmen (or snow people for the politically correct), igloos and forts. You had unlimited ammunition for the inevitable wars that would break out, and for some reason you used to have a much higher tolerance for the cold weather.

10 Things Montreal Men Wear That Women Hate

Honestly, men should be able to wear anything they want... BUT! Some things they wear make women cringe, gag and cry simultaneously. Certain fashion statements men opt for are best to be avoided if they want to meet females and get laid eventually. Why do women care about clothes, you ask? Because your wardrobe is an extension of your personality. It tells us what kind of person you are. You might say something like, "Haters gonna hate", but the reality is - haters are hating for all the right reasons in this particular situation. If you own anything from the list below, you know what to do - throw. it. out. ASAP.

13 Types Of Montrealers The Whole City Hates

Photo cred - Alanah Heffez

Montreal is full of wonderfully great and awesome people. And also not. There are always those bad apples out there that ruin it for everyone, and while you may think hate is a strong word, don't worry, we give you permission to hate them. After all, we support you because we hate them too. In fact, the whole city hates these types of Montrealers. So yes, we should all strive to show a little more compassion and understanding blah blah for these horrible, despicable, bane-of-your-mortal-existence types, but let's content ourselves first with this little list of some of the worst offenders, shall we? And as always, this is just for fun.
