Justice Spotlight: Definition of Marriage

Beginning in 2002 the CCG encouraged the Canadian government to uphold the heterosexual definition of marriage, and to address the legitimate legal/justice needs of people in other interdependent relationships (including same-sex unions).

Yet, Bill C-38—a bill to redefine "marriage"—was passed in the summer of 2005.

Read the CCG's introduction to the issue titled Marriage at a Crossroads, and the formal brief that CCG presented to Parliament in 2003.
Following the first brief, CCG presented a second brief (with executive summary) to the Legislative Committee on Bill C-38. We made an appearance before the committee on June 9 2005.
