“A key milestone for lesbian, gay, transgender, queer and two-spirited people.”

Canada has unveiled a new one dollar commemorative coin that features two men kissing.

The Royal Canadian Mint said the new coin represented “a key milestone for lesbian, gay, transgender, queer and two-spirited people.”

Federal Finance Minister Bill Morneau insisted that progress in terms of ‘LGBTQ2’ rights was not complete.

“They recognize, as we should all recognize, that we are not at the end of this path,” he said. “We have much more to do.”

I'm glad they told us is was two men kissing, because I wouldn't have been able to tell from the "art" on the coin itself.
