Any position I may have had or not may change (or not) after participating in this thread.

I think it's important to try and understand throughly the reasoning of the Canadian governments posture here. I doubt we want to conclude from the outset that everyone involved in crafting this law are a group of idiots. I'm sure they are not. Many of them are most likly more educated than either one of us and also people whom care for their communities too. That said, I don't want to assume they are correct either without giving through thought to the argument.
