Marriage was legalized in Canada......Has the country grown up now? Have people stopped persecuting you at every corner and restaurant or whatever?



We have long taken steps to look at the bigger picture. Public opinion is more informed and mature (on this and other issues). And yes, I do believe that we are in a better place for it. When the leader of the country has no problems standing up and saying 'this is necessary' than I think it speaks volumes for the citizenry. Granted, it's not perfect. There are still those who will never realize ther ignorance (we still hear of racial bigotry in today's day and age)...but as a whole, I think things are getting there.

And a side note, the vote for a national amendment to the marriage laws takes place tomorrow. As it stands now, there are still provinces that don't recognize gay marriage.

If karma's a bitch, it will be my bitch!
