BARRHEAD, Alberta (LifeSiteNews) –– Residents of a Canadian town have 
voted in a solid majority to pass a bylaw that will in effect ban 
pro-LGBT “Pride” themed designs from being displayed on public 
infrastructure, including such flags on government buildings and rainbow 
painted crosswalks.

Some 1,145 votes were cast in a Barrhead, Alberta, plebiscite this past 
Monday which saw 57 percent of residents vote for the ban, with 43 
percent voting against it.

The results of the Neutral Space Bylaw were posted on the town’s 
official website, which explained that the new regulation mandates that 
crosswalks are only painted in the standard white striped pattern 
between two parallel lines. The bylaw also stipulates that only the 
Canadian, Albertan, and town flag can fly on public buildings.

“There will be no decorations on town crosswalks or displaying of flags 
supporting political, social, or religious movements or commercial 
entities,” reads a portion of the bylaw.

The bylaw goes a step further by stating that there will be “No 
grandfathering of any existing crosswalks or flags that contravene the 
new bylaw will be authorized.”

As reported by LifeSiteNews, in June, residents from Barrhead started a 
petition to remove all LGBT rainbow crosswalks and “Pride” flags from 
municipal property. It was presented to the town’s council in July, with 
10 percent of citizens having signed it.

This past October it was announced that a plebiscite would be held 
regarding the petition.

Locals supporting the plebiscite faced stiff opposition from LGBT 
activists.

Barrhead is the second municipality in the province in recent months to 
ban all non-official flags from buildings, as well as nonstandard 
crosswalks.

Earlier this year, as reported by LifeSiteNews, residents in the Alberta 
town of Westlock passed a bylaw that bans all non-governmental flags 
from municipal buildings and mandates that crosswalks only be painted in 
the standard white-striped pattern.

The LGBT indoctrination in Canadian cities and towns via “Pride month,” 
which often includes flags and painted crosswalks, has been described by 
LifeSiteNews columnist Jonathon Van Maren as “not a ‘celebration of 
Pride,'” but as “an assertion of ownership, a declaration of dominance” 
over “public spaces.”

“That summarizes the situations unfolding across North America right now 
quite nicely. The point of rainbow crosswalks isn’t ‘celebration’ – it’s 
colonization, with punishment meted out harshly to those who dare to 
express their disagreement or discomfort,” he wrote.

Barrhead and Westlock are not the only Canadian towns fighting back 
against LGBT indoctrination. Emo, a small town in Ontario, was ordered 
to appear in front of a Human Rights Tribunal for rejecting a 2020 
motion to proclaim June as “Pride” month and fly the LGBT “Pride” flag.

It appears that the days of decency are returning, and thank God for that!
