From knowing a fair number of people in the LGBTQ circles, it would appear the UCP has all but vaporized their support for him because of the GSA issue with the announcement yesterday. This is a group that is also concerned about jobs, pipelines, and strength of the economy, I hope people don't think this community doesn't care about those issues either and simply focus on the GSA one.

But Kenney really didn't have to do this, and he did. I'm guessing either he is a luddite who doesn't get it, or has so much confidence in his win he can afford to sacrifice the entire LGBTQ vote to appease the religious schools.

For some people, at the end of the day, personal rights mean more than anything else. And that's a fair position to take.

Well, I'm sure Jeromy Farkas will still vote for him. That's probably for certain.
