Gay Marriage to be debated in Canada again
Posted by Jeremy under: Canada; Politics; del.icio.us .
Stephen Harper’s government has vowed to revisit the same-sex marriage debate once again this fall. Yay! There’s my tax dollars at work once again. I wish as a society we could get over this. It is only fair for people to marry whoever they want. It’s nobody else’s business.
It surprises me that Harper would bring this up again because gay couples don’t reproduce, which means that his government would have to shell-out even less money for childcare. If less money’s going to childcare they can reduce business taxes even more.
I thought this issue was done the last time it reared its head. There was substantial discussion around election time, but it’s really gone quiet recently. Maybe they are going to try to push some other things through in the fall and want to deflect the headlines by bringing this topic up again?
What do you think?
