I also have to research something--I thought the province of Quebec was the
largest Canadian province--time to get out my old Geography textbooks...

Anyway, I think this is a good thing.  But that's just me.

Québec is the largest in size, but Ontario is the biggest in population, no?

Anyway, it's sad to see the Liberals trying endlessly to block that. Gays should
be allowed to de the same things as hetero.  That's what true freedom and
equality is all about right?

We've had a similar law to allow Gays to get in a form of marriage for quite
some time now here in Québec.  But the western provinces are blocking every step
of the way so that the federal govt adopts these laws...
