Finally Same-Sex Legislation

I am very happy to see Parliament finally voting on C-38. It's about time. I have to give Martin and the liberals credit for showing some leadership to call the Conservative's bluff and extend the sitting of parliament to get this legislation passed. The Globe reports in this article.

As for those that call themselves 'Liberals' who are voting against C-38, I am dissapointed and hope that us progressive Liberals can work so that you do not get the nomination next time. Reports suggest that Joe Comuzzi has resigned from cabinet. Good riddance! Make some room for some progressive MPs.
On Tuesday, Mr. Comuzzi resigned his cabinet post, chosing instead to sit as a Liberal backbencher, according to reports.
Kudos to MP Mark Holland. From this report in The Hill Times, he has done a lot of work to ensure that this legislation would be passed speedily. Keep up the good work! This proves that you can be a good MP even though you are young. Mr. Holland is 31. Email him here.
