Alberta ignores legislator passing out anti-marriage buttons
Canadian legislator Peter Goldring says despite warnings, he'll continue to hand out buttons that oppose same-sex marriage recognition with the governmental seal of Alberta. The province isn't planning to take action against him. "I'm using up the badges that have been printed," Goldring says, acknowledging that the province has told him it doesn't allow its logo to be used by others. His buttons are merely "repeating a well-known Alberta government policy" against same-sex marriage, Goldring says. One man who objected to the seal on the buttons says that's probably why the government hasn't done anything. David Leigh, who is heterosexual, says he decided to speak out on the issue because "gays should not have to fight this fight alone." Edmonton Sun
