MONTREAL (CP) - Canadians can decide the issue of same-sex marriage for themselves and don't need help from other countries, a coalition of same-sex marriage advocates said Tuesday.

Right-wing Christian Americans have been telephoning MPs to tell them how to vote on the proposed Civil Marriage Act. One Ontario MP has said she has received 30 calls from Americans in the last 10 days.

Anyone know of this happening to their MP's???

3. The Liberals should, during question period, demand...

Harper and his faux Conservatives condemn the actions. That should be good for some entertainment, lol.

I think this is a really dumb move on the part of the fundies in the US, it will turn those MPs toward voting for the bill rather than against because their lobbying is an insult in so many ways.
