[mobglob-discuss] Irwin Cotler flip-flopping on same-sex marriage!

[Paul Browning]

ATTENTION FANS OF EQUALITY!!!

Irwin Cotler, the MP for Mount Royal, Quebec, has only been Justice Minister for one day and he's already starting to follow Paul Martin's lead on same-sex marriages. As you'll see in the article below, he's asking the Supreme Court to consider "civil unions" for same-sex couples, basically trying to deny same-sex couples the right to marry if they choose!

We need to remind Paul Martin and Irwin Cotler that "separate but equal" is NOT okay!
