Ways to Contribute to Change as an Ally
Being an ally is more than a label—it’s a continual commitment. Active listening, ongoing learning, challenging biases, acting within one’s circles, confronting LGBTQphobia, and showing visible solidarity are practical steps. Every gesture, however small, enhances safety, inspires others, and propels lasting inclusion forward.
The Importance of Allies
Confronted with recent setbacks to LGBTQ+ rights in Canada, Fondation Émergence underscores the importance of allies. Their visible support shifts mindsets, creates a critical mass, and counterbalances the vocal hostile minority. Through their many small, combined actions, allies foster an inclusive society and protect hard‑won progress.
What Is an Ally?
Being an ally means actively supporting LGBTQ+ people: listening to their experiences, defending their rights, and calling out discrimination.

In 2024‑2025, LGBTQ+ rights are retreating in many countries through discriminatory laws, rising violence, hateful rhetoric, and declining social acceptance. Confronted with this global backlash, the mobilization of allies is essential.
