From the Marriage Act, Alberta

Preamble . . .

WHEREAS marriage between a man and a woman has from time immemorial been frimly grounded in our legal tradition, one that is itself a reflection of long standing philosophical and religious traditions; . . .

1(c.1) "marriage" means a mariage between a man and a woman.

There is no doubt the Alberta law is unconstitutional. Ralph has threatened to use the "notwithstanding" provisions of the Charter in resistance.

I think the next generation will not view this as an issue.
