Dear Vic...

Justice Minister Vic Toews told The Globe and Mail in early October that, while his department was preparing measures to introduce should the motion [to open the debate on same-sex marriage] pass, he was also working on policy options to bring in if the motion fails.

You don't bring any motions forward Vic, that's what we said during the last campaign. This is soon to be dead, dead, dead. Please, let it die with dignity. If our government is pre-occupied with this issue we will lose, and we will deserve to lose. Not because we are anti-SSM, but because there are so many issues that need to be addressed. Broadbased tax-relief, the hopelessly outdated CRTC, the Wheatboard and a little train wreck we like to call the Canadian Healthcare system come to mind.
