    xtra has a timeline of the last 50 years of LGBTQ+ rights in Canada https://www.dailyxtra.com/looking-back-at-the-past-50-years-of-lgbtq2-activism-in-canada-156427

    It's very eastern Canada focused, a lot on raids and protests in Toronto and Montreal not so much on anywhere else. Nonetheless it's a nice reminder that there's more to queer history and civil rights than Stonewall.

      One quibble is that it makes it seem like bath house raids and other forms of police harassment were a thing in the 80s and then no more.

      The last raid on Goliath's, in Calgary, was in 2002. The same year Ontario upheld same sex marriage rights.
