Pink Triangle Press (PTP) has announced the creation of a one-stop destination for credible and accessible health information for 2SLGBTQIA+ Canadians. Available in French and English, PTP Health will launch in late 2025, encompassing a website, three newsletters and multi-media social content. The health publications will be the latest addition to PTP’s expanding slate of brands, which includes television shows, documentaries, podcasts and flagship publication Xtra Magazine. Xtra Senior Editor Ziya Jones, who has led Xtra’s health coverage since 2020, will become the Managing Editor of Health for PTP. The project will kick-off with a nationwide research project exploring the state of healthcare for queer and trans-Canadians which will culminate in a Pink Paper on 2SLGBTQIA+ Health to be published this spring.
