Howard Ludwig is a straight stay-at-home dad who visited a play group hosted by The Center on Halsted. The Center provides local LGBT outreach - and started the play group for lesbian and gay parents [and their kids] three months ago.
Howard writes about his experience in the suburban Chicago news source, SouthtownStar.com.
That's the message behind a new Tourism Toronto campaign marketing the city as one of the world's top destinations for gays and lesbians.
As any marketer knows, gays are "high-value" travellers. Worldwide, the gay travel market is a $55-billion industry.
