Not necessarily, although it can take time to receive a response from governmental offices. Most cities or provinces have online request forms that require non-profit organizations to fill out and submit to receive an official proclamation. These proclamations need to be sent in weeks ahead of time, usually 6-8 weeks but the timeline is dependent on the office. To get a sense of the language you might be required to use, feel free to reference the language in the proclamation that was advocated for by the Two-Spirit Program team at CBRC.
