英文摘要	Canada's lesbian and gay rights movement had an inauspicious birth, starting as it did with the We Demand rally, held on a rainy, cold Saturday in August 1971 on a near-empty Parliament Hill. In response, a number of gay men gathered in Ottawa to found Gays of Ottawa (go). Rapidly, go became a prominent organization within the country's gay rights movement, remaining in operation until 1995. Born into an era when homosexuality was deeply stigmatized, lesbians and gays in Ottawa experienced additional anxieties due to rcmp efforts to remove homosexuals from the federal civil service. Convincing this anxious population to organize - to realize its potential as a community - was the task go set itself. Based on a comprehensive study of go from 1971 to 1995, this article considers events that go executive members believed to be instrumental to creating community. It focuses on the years 1971-7, during which go hosted community dances to foster a sense of community. More importantly, go directly lobbied Ottawa City Council and resisted Ottawa Police actions against gay men. As a result, go came to believe that we became the community. Le mouvement en faveur des droits des lesbiennes et des gais au Canada est ne sous un mauvais jour, puisqu'il a commence par le rassemblement << We Demand >>, tenu sur une Colline du Parlement presque deserte, un samedi pluvieux et froid d'aoUt 1971. En reaction, un certain nombre d'hommes gais se sont reunis a Ottawa pour fonder l'association Gays of Ottawa (GO), qui est vite devenue une organisation de premier plan au pays au sein du mouvement en faveur des droits des gais et qui a continue d'exister jusqu'en 1995. une epoque oU l'homosexualite etait profondement stigmatisee, les lesbiennes et les gais d'Ottawa ont connu d'autres angoisses dues aux efforts de la GRC pour chasser les homosexuels de la fonction publique federale. GO s'est donne pour mission de convaincre cette population anxieuse de s'organiser de realiser son potentiel en tant que communaute. Reposant sur une etude detaillee de GO de 1971 a 1995, le present article traite d'evenements qui, selon les dirigeants de GO, ont contribue a la creation d'une communaute. Il se concentre sur les annees 1971 a 1977, au cours desquelles GO a organise des danses communautaires pour stimuler le sentiment d'appartenance. Chose plus importante, l'association a fait pression directement aupres du conseil municipal d'Ottawa et a resiste aux interventions de la Police d'Ottawa contre les hommes gais. En consequence, GO en est venue a croire qu'elle << etait devenue la communaute >>. a venir]
