Hurrah Hurrah for Canada!
In 20 to 30 years our children will look back on this debate and see it as silly as when cross-racial or cross-religious marriages were considered strictly taboo. "How silly the government would ban such a thing?", our children will say, and we'll smile for we were alive when it changed.
I actually listened to the final night of debate and the vote on CPAC. My heart filled with pride when the bill passed third reading. What a wonderful country we live in!
Yes, some people say we're getting to liberal, and they are entitled to their views, but I am so looking forward to the day I get to see my GLBT friends marry who they love.
What a beautiful bill. What a beautiful country. Parliament gave us a great gift for Canada's birthday: equality in marriage.
