Do you think this "conscience rights" nonsense is the reason for that?

No i dont....but go ahead and tell people they have to do something against their beliefs and tell me it wont make the shortage worse.

If you jump through all sorts of hoops to get a job, and then refuse to do certain aspects of that job, what exactly are you being forced to do?
If I take a job with Suncor, and refuse to have anything to do with oilsands production because it goes against my conscience, what do you think should happen to me? If you are consistent with your "conscience rights" business, obviously I should be able to keep my job.
But we all goddamn well know that I'd be turfed, and rightly so.

Why would you get a job with an oil company if ou didnt believe in the production of it?
So you think people who are against gay marriage should be forced to do exactly that? How about doctors who are against abortion ( a number i think would be incredibly small btw)....should they not be allowed to treat any other malady or illness because of a belief system? Just fire them all?
Again this whole boogeyman argument is just nonsense. Are there whackos out there against such things? Of course there are and it is their RIGHT to believe what ever they like....but to deny them employment (particularly doctors and nurses) based on a procedure they do not want to be part of is assinine.

Obviously this is not true. You believe that some public servants should be allowed to discriminate against gay people if their "conscience" dictates.

No i think that no one should be forced to do something against their beliefs with the threat of dismissal if they dont...especially when other people would be readily available to supply the same service. Rights have to work both ways.
Seriously...lets look at the reality of what is being argued here...how many would truly not perform their sevices based on religious beliefs? 5% maybe?
Again this is all such a non-issue in real terms but this is what the left does.
