“It’s ok to be gay”: Local bakery sends message to MLA Drew Barnes
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Brendan Hillson said he wasn’t trying to start an argument or attract online trolls when he sent a box of two dozen doughnuts to Cypress-Medicine Hat MLA Drew Barnes on Tuesday.
Hillson owns McBride’s Bakery with his wife, Carole.
The doughnuts were covered in vanilla frosting and rainbow sprinkles. A few had blue frosting, spelling out a message which read, ‘It’s ok to be gay’.
