Quebec, not Ontario, is the problem here...if you took out the Quebec MP's, Bill C-38 would have been defeated by quite a healthy margin

The breakdown by province:
.....Yeas..Nays..Abs...Paired
BC...14....20....2.....0
AB...2.....25....1.....0
SK...1.....13....0.....0
MB...4.....9.....1.....0
ON...57....46....1.....1
QC...60....7.....5.....3
NB...5.....5.....0.....0
NS...8.....3.....0.....0
PE...3.....1.....0.....0
NL...1.....4.....2.....0
TER..3.....0.....0.....0
CAN..158...133...12....4

Without Quebec, the result would be 126-98 AGAINST gay marriage...and it would have been defeated on 2nd reading.

Without the Bloc Quebecois (Quebec separatists), the result would be 128-115, still a defeat for the bill.

It's NOT legitimate legislation since the only reason it is passing is because of separatists!!! Let Quebec have gay marriage as a sovereign country!

23 of the 32 Liberals that voted against the bill are from Ontario.
