There Goes the Neighbourhood


In 175 to 122 vote, the House has voted against re-opening the debate on same sex marriage. Among the notables who opposed the motion:

Peter MacKay
Lawrence Cannon (who no doubt will go into a 15 minute monologue on who exactly is a same sex couple if asked afterwards)
Jim Prentice
David Emerson
Josee Verner
John Baird
Michael Chong
Joe Comuzzi

However, some people just can’t seem to get the idea of man on man monogamy out of their heads:

But opponents of gay and lesbian marriage said on Wednesday that rejection of the motion would not end their bid to have the legislation overturned.

“Oh no, absolutely not,” Charles McVety, president of the Canada Family Action Coalition, told the Globe when asked whether his group will abandon the fight if the motion was defeated.

“We are going to continue to lobby members of Parliament, to raise up grassroots and to engage in the democratic process.”

So, expect McVety to begin lobbying Parliament to re-open the debate on re-opening the debate on same sex marriage.
