Well, the debate’s largely done.
But this may be the icing on the cake.
Congrats to the grooms.
[quote=“CBC”]Liberal MP Scott Brison was married in Nova Scotia Saturday, becoming the first federal politician to marry a same-sex partner since gay marriage became legal in Canada more than two years ago.
Maxime St. Pierre and the member of Parliament for Kings-Hants exchanged vows at a church in Cheverie, the Nova Scotia community where Brison grew up. The wedding was to have taken place outside, but heavy rain caused the ceremony to be moved to a small United church up the road.
A number of dignitaries, including Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion, former New Brunswick premier Frank McKenna and former prime ministers Paul Martin and Joe Clark, were among the guests.
“Everyone involved felt like they were part of a history-making event,” McKenna said. “It seemed like a validation of a long process.”[/quote]
