Besides, what is the point of your questions? Do you live in Canada? Cousin marriage has been legal here for well over a decade. My question to you would be, why are you against cousin marriage?

I wasn't aware that cousin marrying was allowed in Canada. Interesting that you knew that though.
But replace cousins with siblings then. How many people here are against sibling marriage and why?
