Choir Protests Russian Anti-Gay Laws as Sochi Games Open

The opening ceremony of the Sochi Winter Olympic Games takes place on February 7, but there have been concerns about possible security threats, incomplete facilities, allegations of unpaid construction workers and what’s seen as President Putin’s aggressive anti-gay stance. Last year, Russia banned the promotion of “non-traditional” sexuality attracting international condemnation. This Toronto choir group sings its protest. Credit: Nobu Adilman
