PHILADELPHIA

Gay Discrimination

Stats and Info

On September 18, 2003 the Parliament of Canada voted

to amend the Criminal Code to include sexual orientation

as an identifiable characteristic for protection from hate crime

Fifteen percent of gays or lesbians and 28% of bisexuals reported being victims of spousal abuse in comparison to 7% of heterosexuals

The rate of violent victimization for gays and lesbians was almost 2.5 times higher than the rate for heterosexuals while the rate for bisexuals was 4 times higher than the rate for heterosexuals

While 90% of GLBT employees in Canada indicated that their current bosses and coworkers are tolerant of their sexual orientation, just under 50% indicated that they’ve experienced discrimination

at some point in their careers.
