Equality
Same-sex marriage is already the law in eight of ten Canadian provinces. The sky has not fallen. When Bill C-38 passes and Canadians in those last two provinces are treated equally before the law it will not be a day too soon.
Opponents of the bill are actually claiming that the legislation is being fast-tracked. Two years after the first legal same-sex marriages and Parliament still hasn't dealt with the issue. And it's been a busy two years -- cross-Canada hearings of the Justice Committee, eight court decisions, one Supreme Court reference, one election campaign, three House of Commons votes, six months of debate on the Hill. It may be a lot of things, but fast isn't one of them!
