That doesn't justify you saying that I have no soul because I'm Canadian.

Many Texan cities have gay pride parades. BTW They have two things in Texas steers and religious zealots.

I wonder whether the opinions about Toronto have changed. Do you still think so?

Yes they have. 15 years ago it was a thriving multicultural city where everything worked. Today it's no longer that.
