Personally, I am against the idea of gay marriages, but that is from a religious standpoint. I don’t see a reason why they should be illegal.

Court ruling favors gay marriage

Canada took a major step toward legally recognizing same-sex marriage on Friday when an Ontario court ruled that to do otherwise is unconstitutional.

A three-judge panel of the Ontario Superior Court decided that granting marriage licenses only to heterosexual couples violates Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

According to the Associated Press, the court also ordered the federal Parliament to officially redefine “marriage” within the next two years. Current federal law defines marriage as “a union between one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others.”
