MarkedForDeletion: not local. No one reading this needs a definition of homophobia.
Now, maybe the definition of homophobia changes over the decades in Halifax, in which case we can start a new page.
Fear or hatred of, aversion to, or prejudice or unjust discrimination against homosexual people. It is sometimes used to mean any sort of opposition to same-sex romance or sexual activity. For the encyclopedia entry, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homophobia
NsRap is one of the organizations in Halifax devoted to fighting homophobia.
