The way the law looks like it will go, regardless of what Klein has to say about it is: Same Sex marriage will be legal across Canada.
As I understand it, there is a cop-out on the Charter, which essentially allows provinces to say "sorry, we're exempt". I believe Alberta's government has already put this into practice. Even if homosexuals aren't allowed to marry in Alberta, their marriages are still recognized if they are married.
