Just read it in the paper...
Same-sex marriage law passes 158-133
One thing that I haven't liked about this issue is that eveyone keeps saying "it's my right to get married", and having them say that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms was unconstitutional.
The truth is that this issue has nothing to do with the charter. Marriage is not a right granted to citizens of the country.
I'm glad that they came to the decision they did, but they are fighting for the wrong reasons, or at least, giving the wrong justifications.
