Canada 4th Nation to Legalize Gay Marriage
By ROB GILLIES, Associated Press Writer 20 minutes ago
Canada legalized gay marriage Wednesday, becoming the world's fourth nation to grant full legal rights to same-sex couples.
Supreme Court Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin signed the legislation making it law, hours after it was approved by the Senate late Tuesday night despite strong opposition from Conservatives and religious leaders.
The bill grants same-sex couples legal rights equal to those in traditional unions between a man and a woman, something already legal in eight of Canada's 10 provinces and in two of its three territories.
The legislation drafted by Prime Minister Paul Martin's minority Liberal Party government easily passed the Senate, which essentially rubber stamps any bill already passed by the House of Commons, which passed it late last month.
The Netherlands, Belgium and Spain are the only other nations that allow gay marriage nationwide.

Canada's equality= Bible is hate speech but some bile spewing radical mullah.
Canada's Healthcare= 18 month waiting list for transplants and non life-threatening surgeries.
Glaciers- melting, and inhabited by polar bears and wild tusked walri (plural for walrus anyone?)
Mountains- not too shabby.
You forgot the SISSY BOY Frenchies in Quebec. They're actually KEEPING people from wanting to go to Canada, or at least Quebec. Sheesh, more Bush haters than.... can't go there, leave it to Triumph The Insult Dog.
That's Good, FOR ME TO POOP ON!

Global Warming is NOT OUR FAULT. Canada has its own factories. Wanna get pissed at pollution, go to China, Japan, Russia, Indonesia, and every other TURD WORLD Country. We're not entirely at fault. Kyoto was a sham anyway.
