Rainbow Flags go up on Bank Street

It may not be by official decree, but rainbow flags and decals are going up at businesses along a six-block stretch of Bank Street, the efforts of a non-profit group committed to having the area gain visibility as a gay village.

"It's exciting to have real, tangible results now," said Glenn Crawford, who last year spearheaded a campaign to have the city officially recognize Bank Street between Nepean and James streets as a gay village.
