They said same-sex relationships wasn't enough. It had to be called "marriage", or else they would declare that gays had no rights at all.
They said not to worry - nobody was going to be forced to marry gays against their will - only those who wished to do it would do it.
They said that this was the last human rights issue to be resolved. We didn't have to worry about things like polygamy being legal.
Then, gay marriage became legal under the Liberal government, against the will of most Canadians.
Then, the Liberals paid for a study that recommended that polygamy be legalized.
Then, the Liberal courts said "swinger" clubs were legal.
Then, the Conservatives came to power and were warned not to mess with marriage, because "it is just fine the way it is", despite that same argument causing liberal heads to explode when gay marriage was not legal.
Now, there are rumblings from liberals that churches should be forced to marry gays, or else lose their charitable status.
