What do you mean - so people of the same sex can now legally get married, and this right is now (will be) protected by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms... and yet no religious group is forced/required to perform the marriages - so essentially it is a civil union that is performed by some churches/temples.
Basically it boils down to a full recognition of the right of homosexuals - rights that technically they are entitled to as per the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. So the rights of homosexuals are to be recognized/upheld, and the rights of religious denomonations are also to be recognized/upheld; I don't see what the issue is...
