Good news :) The Canadian Supreme Court has ruled that the definition of marriage as 'the lawful union of two persons' does not violate our constitution. It also decided that clergy should have the right to refuse to perform homosexual marriage for religious reasons - which is fine. I wouldn't force a Muslim to eat pork. (I know the two aren't quite on the same level, but frankly, I wouldn't want to be married by someone who believed my marriage was an abomination anyway).

Surprisingly enough, the Apocalypse failed to arrive.

Thanks to those of you who sent me encouraging stuff last night. I never know quite how to reply, so I'll just say thank you very much and offer hugs all round.

I wanna move to Canada. I suppose I'll have to get recertified as a teacher if I do ......

The only thing my mother needed (she has a B.Ed. from an English university) when she wanted a license to teach in Quebec was a course on the history of education in Quebec.

It took her about a year, I think. Evening classes at McGill twice weekly.

If you're really serious, I could put you in touch with her.
