Two straight Canadians to marry | The Register
Eg ;)
ROFLMAO
Wtf.....I'm baffled, this does not make sence. Why? Since their straight?!!
To receive the 'Breaks' (Tax, health care, etc) that a married couple gets. That was one of the big factors on why Canada set up the law to recognize gay unions.Quote:

Hmm, seems a bit extreme for tax evasion though, dosn't it?
It might have been okay if no one knew they were married.
As men, they can keep their surnames, they can live as roomates to the public, even though they are married.
Now that this has been publicized, it will be hard to convince critics that they are truly heterosexual.
Might cause more social problems than anything else.
some ppl here saw that as a "tax evasion" technique, but maybe both are not straight as they are claimming to be.....Quote:

"Yes, i want to marry him just because the tax reduction, hey, im straight .. i dont like those things".....
gay couple posing as a straight couple posing as a gay couple... only in Canada! :confused:
It's been clear from the beginning thay gay marriage was all about money.
Historically, you could put your spouse on your health insurance (important
in the US but irelevant in Canada), pay a lower tax rate etc.
Once same-sex unions are recognized, everyone will have a "partner" in
order to obtained this favored status. If you stayed "single" you'd pay
all the taxes while everyone wondered why you were so stupid.
As a result of the abuse of this status, the tax rate break enjoyed by
married couples will probably disappear, and also the spousal discount
on health insurance. If "everyone" gets a special privelige, then no one
does, because all individuals will be treated the same, married or not.
Traditionally, married couples had priveliges because they perform
a useful social function, raising children. Governments figured it was
cheaper to give families a tax break than to take all those kids and
raise them at gov't expense in institutions.
:cool:
Bring back the birch, flogging, hanging, National Service, restore police powers, instead of all this" lets try to understand them" **** :D
That includes kids. Confiscate their games m/c's, computers etc . lock the little shits up. Why should we have to undestand their shitty obnoxious lives :D
It's pretty simple -- either they aren't straight or it has something to do with the taxes.
gay or straight, anyone can share a taxi (oops, sorry taxes :D )Quote:

Well...they do say it's a game to play on the gay marriage thing...technically, if two gay people can get married, why not two straight people of the same sex :D...it's going to be interesting how this plays out in Canadian courts.
Legally they are within their rights unless they change the law...this is one occurance I'll bet the courts didn't fathom in making the same-sex law :D
Eg ;)
jm459: True, but I'm not implying that it's both. It's either one of the two.
If the courts don't question it...I can just see it now :D...next...cross-species marriages :D
All the sheep are running for cover! :D

On a serious note. It just goes to show how the different national and local laws in each and every country effects peoples lives , politically and socially
