I didn’t know that Canada officially approved C-38 yesterday. Why don’t I ever hear about this stuff?
Oh yeah, because I don’t pay attention to enough news. Phooey.
Well, this is awesome news. I’m glad our administration pays attention to issues of civil rights instead of taking a “we won, it’s our call” stance. I guess the minority status of the government helps with that. Now is a good time, I guess, to extend a hand to Americans who want to live somewhere where the government doesn’t hate them. Hey! Are you gay? Are you at all left-of centre in your political views? Are you female? Are you a member of an ethnic minority? Is your income level anywhere below “very comfortable”? If you answered yes to any of these questions, and you live in the US, your government hates you and works daily to disadvantage you to the benefit of those richer, whiter, maler, more conservative or straighter than you. Come to Canada where things aren’t perfect, but at least you’re treated like a person.
