Gay Top Model - Hamilton2009
Province of Ontario, somewhere between Toronto and the Niagara Falls lies the city of Hamilton. Apparently it all began with a poignant story of romance, separation and reunion - very much like some of the issues currently facing our gay community. After a successful first season of Vancouver's Next Gay Top Model all the way in Canada's pacific, the producer decided to venture into this very prosperous city. Hamilton no longer will be known only as the 'steel capital' but also as the Canadian city to host GAY TOP MODEL - HAMILTON2009. The plans are now undergoing and you can be a part of it.
