Charles (or Chuck) is a local comedian who has been largely successful. I've seen him do some really funny comedy/dance acts at Grab That Dough and he performed in the 2003 and 2004 Pride comedy nights.

Charles also broadcasts on two radio stations including CKDU-FM 97.5 and 94.7FM SEASIDE-FM and participates in special Pride Broadcasts throughout the year.

In February 2005, Charles became the Events and Promotions Manager at Club NRG.

In January 2007, Chuck became Project Coordinator for NSRAP. KevinKindred writes: For the past five years Charles has been involved with various aspects in the Rainbow Community in Halifax. He was the former Events Manager for Club NRG/ Evolution in which he coordinated the application for their cabaret license with the Alcohol and Gaming Authority and the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board. Charles Hsuen has also performed and emceed for countless of Rainbow Organizations including Halifax Pride, ISCANS, Manna for Health, Family Pride Camping Association, and the AIDS Coalition of Nova Scotia.

Charles is a radio broadcaster in the HRM for three separate networks including: SEASIDE FM 94.7 in Eastern Passage, VoicePrint? which broadcasts across Canada, and CKDU 88.1FM in Halifax with an estimated audience of over 4.5 million listeners a week.

In the next few months, Charles plans to work closely with various LGBT groups in Nova Scotia to promote awareness, coordinate events, and unify the community with NSRAP's initiatives.

NSRAP has been working since 1995 throughout Nova Scotia as a voice for the Rainbow Community. NSRAP has grown over the years and relies on interested volunteers and active members who identify and bring relevant issues to the Board for action. We have developed strong links with many government departments and non-governmental organizations, especially in the areas of education, human rights, policing, legal/political affairs, health care, faith & religion, and community development.
