After all the press and controversy over gay marriages, Canada got it right by simply defining marriage as a "union between two people." No religious overtones in the law. No strictures or restrictions. No blessings given, nor implied. Churches may marry or refuse to marry at their pleasure. Others may take their own path.

This simple definition should satisfy the situation for all except those intent on minding their neighbors business.

If it doesn't pertain to you, don't be concerned about it seems to be is the Canadian take on the non event of gay marriage.

Thank you Canada for setting an example, we are indebted to you.
