"Liggett is a bigot" is a brilliant protest sign.

About 100 protesters gathered at Lower Main St. in the Galt area of the city at 3 p.m. and have marched to Cambridge City Hall. [...] Causarano-Bolton said Grand River Pride has been “really struggling” with their relationship with the city, citing its lack of transparency behind Cooper’s reprimand and sensitivity training.

[Mayor Bigot, sorry] Liggett told CBC News if she were to apologize that would be between herself and Mills.
