I am happy with the results. I suspect those who would be against this legislation are either licking their wounds or are just staying silent because, what can they say? The legislation passed...
It is interesting to note that opposition leader and conservative Stephen Harper says he will push for another vote if his party is elected. Great. Just what we need. What, he'll have his vote and then when the Liberals get back in power they have have a vote and we can see-saw back and forth on the issue?
The vote passed. It *was* the right thing to do and as I said in another thread... Future generations will wonder what all the fuss was about and why we took so long (much like giving women the right to vote) to recognize basic human rights...
