I’m so happy and proud to be Canadian. Despite the fact that I deal with a bit of shit here and there in public for being in a gay relationship, legislatively, we’re all equal. The situation south of the border is what this country was at three decades ago. We got rid of homophobic military policies right when the Americans enacted “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” We enacted marriage equality before same-sex marriages were outright banned in some states.
This is a photo from an anti same-sex marriage rally in Maine the other day. For some reason, it gives me hope that things will change in the US. Full album here.
