In 1975, he gained prominence in a fight for gay rights with the University of Saskatchewan. The university's dean of the College of Education refused to allow Wilson into the school system to supervise practice teachers because of his public involvement with the gay liberation movement.[1] Wilson was vice-president of the Gay Community Centre Saskatoon and had been trying to start a gay academic union at the university. The Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission failed to protect Wilson and his case was unsuccessful.[2] Wilson spent most of his life fighting for human rights issues, activism and AIDS organizations. In 1977 he founded Stubblejumper Press, a small publishing house dedicated to works by Canadian lesbians and gay men. The company's first title was Wilson's own poetry collection The Myth of the Boy.[3] He served as executive director of the Saskatchewan Association on Human Rights from 1978 to 1983. In 1983 Wilson moved to Toronto to work for the Toronto Board of Education as an advisor to the Race Relations and Equal Opportunity Office. In 1984 he became one of the founding publishers of Rites: for lesbian and gay liberation. Wilson was the first openly gay candidate to be nominated by a major political party to stand for Parliament, as a candidate of the New Democratic Party in the Toronto riding of Rosedale in the 1988 election. During the campaign he was diagnosed with AIDS. He spent the rest of his life as an AIDS activist, helping to found AIDS Action Now! and founding chairperson of the Canadian Network of Organizations for People Living With AIDS. Wilson published his partner Peter McGehee's novels, Boys Like Us (1991) and Sweetheart (1992). One month before his death, he completed McGehee's notes of his third novel, Labour of Love (1993). Wilson died on September 24, 1992 at the age of 42.[4] In 1995 the University of Saskatchewan's gay organization (Gays and Lesbians at the U of S, GLUS) established the Doug Wilson Award, given annually to honour those individuals who have shown leadership and courage in advancing the rights of gays & lesbians at the University of Saskatchewan.[5] The University of Saskatchewan Students' Union (USSU) has presented the award since 2001, after GLUS folded following the establishment of the USSU-run Pride Centre.[6] In March 2009, Stubblejumper, a film about Doug Wilson was screened in venues across Saskatchewan.[7] It was directed by Saskatchewan filmmaker David Geiss.[8] In honour of his role as a significant builder of LGBT culture and history in Canada, a portrait of Wilson by artist Alfred Ng is held in the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives' National Portrait Collection.[9] References1. ^{{cite news|url = http://news.usask.ca/archived_ocn/09-mar-13/7.php|title = A case study in the gay prairie experience|last = McPherson|first = Colleen|work = On Campus News|publisher = University of Saskatchewan|date = 2009-03-13|accessdate = 2013-09-24}} 2. ^{{cite web|url = http://esask.uregina.ca/entry/wilson_douglas_1950-93.html|title = Wilson, Douglas (1950–93)|first = Valerie|last = Korinek|work = The Encyclopedia of Saskatchewan|publisher = Canadian Plains Research Center - University of Regina|year = 2006|accessdate = 2013-09-24}} 3. ^The Body Politic, Issue 53 (1978). 4. ^{{cite web|url = http://library2.usask.ca/sni/stories/her16.html|title = Gay Rights Activist Doug Wilson, 42, Dead|work = Saskatchewan News Index - University of Saskatchewan Library|publisher = The StarPhoenix|date = 1992-09-29|accessdate = 2009-04-03}} 5. ^{{cite web|url = http://scaa.usask.ca/gallery/uofs_events/articles/1995.php|title = 1995: Doug Wilson Award established|work = Events in the History of the University of Saskatchewan|publisher = University of Saskatchewan Archives|accessdate = 2009-04-03}} 6. ^{{cite web |title = Excellence Awards: Help Centre Award, Women's Centre Award and Pride Centre Doug Wilson Award |url = http://www.ussu.ca/excellenceawards/centreawards.shtml |publisher = University of Saskatchewan Students' Union |accessdate = 2013-09-24 |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20130927031219/http://www.ussu.ca/excellenceawards/centreawards.shtml |archivedate = 2013-09-27 |df = }} 7. ^{{cite web|url = https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1337027/|title = Stubblejumper|publisher = Internet Movie Database|accessdate = 2018-11-02}} 8. ^{{cite news|url = http://www2.canada.com/saskatoonstarphoenix/story.html?id=66bba779-2af4-4441-b45a-bf7df11cd562|title = Gay activist's story told|first = Cam|last = Fuller|work = The StarPhoenix|publisher = CanWest|date = 2009-03-13|accessdate = 2012-02-07}} 9. ^{{cite web|url = http://digitalcollections.clga.ca/items/show/156|title = Douglas Wilson (1950 - 1992)|publisher = Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives|year = 2001|accessdate = 2018-11-02}} External links
