You can look at it another way. If it receives too much attention and affects such a small subset of people then why are the UCP even bothering to mention it at all? Why does it keep coming up in their plans. It shouldn't even be in their educational plans. Period. They keep coming back to it and it's weird.

It gives me insight into their true position on things they have no business being involved in.
It is because left-wing politics focuses on social issues which IMO governments shouldn't be involved with anyways.

So if the UCP doesn't chime in on social issues, NDP will tell everyone that this was the UCP's last stance and they'll focus on that. Then everyone gets pissy about that...it's a damned if you do damned if you don't.

Maybe we should focus on the really important topics that government should be focused on which is how they'll spend our money, how they'll tax us, and how they'll get out of our way.
