Canada joined the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain today in recognizing gay marriage nationwide. Expect some interesting legal cases as Canadians marry same-sex U. S. citizens, U. S. gay couples want to marry in Canada, and Canadian gay couples want to immigrate to the U. S. Someone should calculate what all of this will cost the U. S. court system (i.e., taxpayers). Wouldn’t it be better spent on, say, improving our kids’ education?
Oh Canada!
