Dear GayCalgary & Edmonton Magazine,

Emperor 34 Fred Wolf Would and Empress 34 Malibu Stacey Stevens would like to thank all of our guests that came to celebrate our Stepdown on April 16th, 2011. We would like to thank our entire upper house and everyone who was involved with the 34th Reign for all the hard work they did throughout our year, for we would not have made it without them.

We would also like to thank all the volunteers who helped throughout the year, along with all of the organizations that allowed us to do functions in their establishments.

We would like to congratulate Emperor 35 Chris Tron and Empress 35 Makayla Quinn on their succession and look forward to helping when we can.

We would also like to invite everyone to our Annual General Meeting, happening Sunday June 12th 2011, at the Calgary Eagle (424A 8th Ave SE) starting at noon.

Sincerely,

Emperor and Empress 34

Fred and Malibu

Dear GayCalgary & Edmonton Magazine:

As a transgender who is a proud member of the Conservative Party of Canada, I fully endorse Elections Canada having Special Advance Polls on post-secondary campuses. But I also agree with the Conservative Party that the seven-hundred votes cast should be tossed out since Elections Canada did not inform the Tory War Room and/or the local Tory candidate that the poll at the University of Guelph would be in existence. If the Liberals keep on insisting what they are saying is legitimate about the ballots being valid, let me again remind them that they tried to have ballots thrown out at a University campus in 2008 and were successful.

People might think it’s odd that a tranny would back the Conservatives, but I am straight, not gay. Besides if say 22,634 people voted for Laurie Hawn last time, roughly 2,263 were gay or transgendered (ten percent extrapolated based on United Nations population trends). We gay and tranny folks love our Conservative MP’s especially heroes like John Baird, Jason Kenney, and Rob Anders.

Regards,

Walter Dean
