Instead, Canadian laws should be changed to better accommodate the problems of women in polygamous marriages, providing them clearer spousal support and inheritance rights.

I like this. If someone wanted to be a part of a polygamous marriage then they should be forced to abide by the same laws about support as a monogamous marriage. It make make people think twice if they are going to have to pay 3, 4, 50 ex-wives spousal support .


Cynthia, I'm not trying to attack you, but you keep saying how unhappy you are with the moral and views of this country and how if it gets any worse you are going to leave. If you are really that unhappy, maybe you should move to another country that shares your values.

However, living in Canada, there are numerous options for Joe Citizen to affect change. When election time comes around, vote for the candidate/party who espouses your beliefs. Encourage your friends who are feeling disenfranchised to exercise their rights to vote or try to convince them to vote for your party. If you're unhappy with current legislation, you are allowed to propose your own (although that route is much harder I will admit). Lobby against any of the government's proposed legislation if you don't like it.

There are so many things that you can do to try and change the climate of Canada. However, remember, not all Canadians are going to think like you and in our country majority rules. But I shouldn't have to explain that to you. But do something other than complaining if you don't like the way things are.
