So if polls show Canada supports gay marriage
Edited on Sun Dec-19-04 05:06 PM by HEyHEY
Why the fuck is Ralph Klien saying MPs should have a free vote over it? I mean... if the polls show the nation supports it...and a buncha MPs bring their personal ideals into the mix...is that democracy?

2. I'm surprised
anybody is giving any thought to what he is saying. He's got 3 remaining brain cells, and those should be used towards figuring out how not to kill the rest.

3. They don't
A minority is opposed, a minority supports it, and about half the population here supports "civil unions". What it really means is that the majority here support gay marriage as long as nobody calls it marriage.
