To pander to social conservatives in Alberta who think we need this protection without realizing that, really, it wouldn't change a thing, at least medically. I believe that this is why she pretty much refuses to talk about it or make it an election issue. It's a vague comment meant to appease social conservatives including those within her party, but recognizing that it won't really change anything.
The marriage commissioner issue is a different debate and is where the real implications are, but that would the thrown out by the courts so it's likely of little consequence.
