15 Votes Needed for Same-Sex Marriage in Canada

The spread of gay marriage has been moving at a brisk pace on a province by province pace - but same-sex couples across the entire country may soon have the opportunity to marry. The government of Prime Minister Paul Martin has finally put forward it's long-awaited same-sex marriage bill. A Globe and Mail poll finds 139 MPs in favor of the legislation and 118 opposed, with 49 undecided or not stating their preference. If 15 of those members vote in favor of the proposal, gay marriage will soon be the law of the land in our neighbor to the North.
