Married in Canada

A passport to married life


Local gay couple’s Canadian wedding is full of surprises

The couple had talked about getting married in Massachusetts last year. But they decided against the idea after right-wing groups in that state launched an effort to amend the state’s constitution to ban gay marriage.

"We didn’t want to be part of something that could possibly have been taken away from us," Bush said. "No matter what happens in this country, we are now legally married in Canada."

Equality Terminated

Equality California to Governor Schwarzenegger: ‘WE’LL BE BACK!’

SACRAMENTO, CA – Today, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed Equality California-sponsored Assembly Bill 849, the Religious Freedom and Civil Marriage Protection Act, by Assemblyman Mark Leno (D-San Francisco), bringing this bill's dramatic progress in recent weeks to a halt.

'The Governor has simply delayed – not ended – the inevitability of marriage equality in California,' said Equality California Executive Director Geoffrey Kors."
