BILL c-38 PASSED!!!!! Canada has become the third country in the world to wholly sanction Gay Marriage!!!!! The constitution is going to be changed to read "Marriage is between two PEOPLE" and EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not that I didnt think it would pass, but now it HAS!!!!!!!
It was right outside my window. You can hear people honking and yelling right now. I'd assume they're celebrating the announcement.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

So technically then anyone could get married by anyone. Unless they put out a list of legitimate religions that are authorized to marry people, but that again would be against the charter.

I'm very proud to be a canadian and very ashamed of being an albertan. Just realize within the cities of Edmonton and Calgary it's not like that at all. Rural ridings are way over represented in the Alberta legislature, so all the PCs have to do to keep winning elections is appease all the rural, generally religiously conservative, ridings. So the views expressed by Mr. Klein are not necessarily the view of the majority of albertans, and they are certainly not my views.

no, you can't. The old definition of marriage was between a man and woman. So you could ask the same question of that one - if a man is married to a woman, can he then marry another woman? - no, of course he can't, polygamy is illegal in this country, so in that regard the law on marriage has not changed.
I <3 Alexxx.
I agree Dabekk, all that albertan stuff is mostly rural. Calgary is a super nice city, very liberal(Or so it seemed to me). Oh well, Klein is an alcoholic, he probably doesn't know what he's saying.
Eeeee!
Yay Canada!
