PRIDE Parade 2018
FCN Walks in PRIDE Parade
We are proud to tell you that pride will be happening again in Toronto.
Toronto, which happens the week of June 18th this year is slightly different than our previous 2 years. Our 1st year we marched naked and handed out both pens and postcards, last year we only handed out the postcards and because of the success Ray had last year with a booth, we opted to go with a booth as well as the parade this year. Pride in Toronto is also a bigger event than other parts of our country lasting an entire week. Church Street is closed for the Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday all day where we will be setting up a booth. In recent years we have merely walked Church St after the parade talking with anyone who approaches us as to why we are naked. This year we thought we’d park ourselves and have a booth with a better display of our lifestyle presented both graphically and personally as we are of the impression that we are able to be naked at our booth. We know we are permitted to be naked by Pride definition…. We have to wear something as totally nudity is not permitted, so a hat or combination of hat and sandals will suffice. The parade happens on Sunday June 24th. Anyone and everyone that is willing to be naked is welcome to join us at the parade. We will post our March time on our web site as soon as we know. Anyone wishing to help with the booth or has questions is encouraged to contact Kevin at: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Volunteers are needed for manning the Booth. Friday night, Saturday and Sunday. Contact Kevin!
Happy Pride!

Welcome to the Federation of Canadian Naturists
This is the Official Site of the Federation of Canadian Naturists.
Naturism—the practice of nudity—promotes wholesomeness and stability of the human body, mind, and spirit.
Naturism is founded on family participation. Children in naturist families learn to appreciate the body as part of their natural environment. They grow up with healthful attitudes and accept the physical nature of both sexes and all ages without fear or shame.
The Federation of Canadian Naturists (FCN) and the Fédération québécoise de naturisme (FQN) constitute together the national naturist organization in Canada. We strive to:
- Promote naturism to Canadians
- Help naturists find out how and where they may enjoy the naturist life
- Represent the interests of Canadian naturist individuals, families, clubs, resorts, and organizations.

Survey Says
14% of Canadians Willing to Bare it All
The results of the survey on Canadians’ experience and attitudes toward nudity and naturism is now available.
Identifying the size of the movement has always been challenging. While it is easy to count members of associations and visitors to naturist facilities, that represents only a small portion of participants. That question was first answered through a 1999 survey.
To update the data, determine trends, and reaffirm the original conclusions, a new survey was commissioned. The Federation of Canadian Naturists (FCN), the Fédération Québécoise de naturisme (FQN) and Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park used an Ipsos panel to ask a similar but more in depth set of questions. The survey was designed, implemented and interpreted by Mark Wilkins Communications.
