Monkman agreed because it appeared Pride Toronto was dropping the demand for ownership. Pride needed an image for the 2019 Pride Guide, which Monkman provided in good faith even though there was no contract.


Monkman again left the project on April 29, 2019 because Pride Toronto would not send a contract. Yet, 9 days later Pride filed a grant report indicating a "fully executed" contract with Monkman. The Pride Guide ad was included in this report.


The day after Pride Toronto reported a "fully executed" contract with Kent Monkman, Canadian Heritage filed its approvals for the $600,000 grant, referencing both Kent Monkman and the AFN


Did Pride Toronto double-dip the chip? Pride claimed a "fully executed" contract with Kent Monkman and raised $850,000 across two grants, even after Monkman cancelled his involvement in the project.



Before the contribution agreement could be signed for the $600,000 grant, Canadian Heritage required details on the mobile Two-Spirit art exhibit, including which Indigenous communities had partnered with the project. Pride provided a list of communities.


After Pride Toronto provided the list of Indigenous communities partnering with the project, the $600,000 started to flow. Months after he cancelled involvement Canadian Heritage still believed Kent Monkman was part of the project.


Canadian Heritage you should be funding the artists directly and ideally both Jason Baerg and Kent Monkman should receive funding and compensation for all the time and effort wasted and the taxing amount of stress this kind of foolery puts on these artists!
