Fort McMurray, Alberta is home to a growing LGBTQ2S+ community. In this episode of Small Town Queer, three individuals put their hearts and personal lives on the line as they try to build lives in Canada’s “Oil Town.” Follow the intersecting lives of 3 champions of the LGBTQ2S+ community as they break down barriers in this often-misunderstood Northern Alberta town. A microcosm of small towns throughout North America, Fort McMurray is a case study in how people of all orientations and personal expressions are trying to find their own space in remote communities.
