As far as I can tell, Pride Group is not associated with LGBTQ+. At least, the article didn't suggest they are.

That’s what I’m here for.

Although a queer trucking company would have been really cool.

The only reason I read the article was to figure out why LGBTQ+ was going broke in Canada. Given that (as near as I can tell) "Pride" has been associated with LGBTQ+ (or their historical analogs) since about the 70's, that's quite the name for an unaffiliated company.

My first thought was that it was a white supremacist organization, and was curious how they'd racked up so much debt.

A number of years ago, 'pride' was a word used for other things too. Even a group of lions is a pride; and Prince sang of it in Purple Rain.
