By Rosalind Russell – Municipalities across the districts, including Espanola and Elliot Lake, have raised the Pride Flag in recognition of Pride Month.
Both municipalities made formal proclamations and raised the flags on Monday.
The Town of Espanola also painted a new crosswalk between Espanola High School and the complex, while Elliot Lake changed up its banner on its website as part of the campaign.
