Canadian Politics Today

Blackmore is now convicted.  Good.  He's a piece of dog ****.

There appear to be three fronts of attacks on monogamous marriage, from my observation: Fundamentalist Christians, fundamentalist Muslims, and hipsters.  The article says the high court allows for the banning of polygamous marriage but should it ?

Do we care ?

Furthermore, if these aren't attempted 'legal' marriages then how are they different from secular relationships ?  The court should stay out of those IMO.

I really couldn't care less if consenting adults want to engage in "open marriages", "swinging", polyamorous relationships, or any other kind of non-exclusive, non-monogamous sexual relationship.  Conversely I don't see any reason to give them any legal recognition either.

Prosecuting Winston Blackmore wasn't about putting an end to consenting adults getting frisky together. It was about putting an end to his disgusting cult.  Perhaps those outside BC aren't familiar with Blackmore.
