A sign outside a business in Sooke is making waves in the local community.

It references a video posted to Twitter by recording artist Kid Rock in response to Bud Light's support of a transgender influencer.

"We’re part of a queer family and a queer community here in Sooke," said Lyndze Harvey, a local resident."That’s making our community unsafe for people and that’s just not acceptable," said Roach.Harvey identifies as queer and the couple's two children identify as transgender. On Monday morning, he said he was planning on removing the message but said that choice has nothing to do with community reaction. He just wants to change what the sign says.

She says Vancouver Island is seen as a safe place for transgender people but the message on the sign challenges that notion.For Harvey and Roach, it’s about making Sooke more inclusive, something that they say the community has already become.
