In the province of British Columbia in Canada, the head of the ruling political party is a person named Svend Robinson. Svend is a homosexual, and is quite public about it. In fact, he was known before he became the head of his political party.
Once Svend's party got elected, he wasted little time with his attack against God. First, he introduced a bill to have "God" erased from Canada's Charter of Rights, the equivalent of the American Declaration of Independence. So you could say he wanted to erase the "one nation under God" phrase from the Charter. Fortunately, this bill failed.
That didn't deter Svend though because he introduce another bill. This one sought to make it illegal to speak against homosexuality, on a par with Canada's laws against racial slander. This makes it a part of the criminal code. If passed, this bill would make it perfectly legal to imprison a pastor or reverend who preaches the dangers and sinfulness of homosexuality to his/her congregation. Svend, however, says it is not intended to jail preachers. This bill was passed!!
In Toronto, Ontario, a homosexual group approaches a printer, a small businessman, with a job to print material blatantly promoted homosexuality. The printer, being a child of Almighty God, refuses.
Offended, the homosexuals have him formally charged and dragged into court. There, the printer receives a fine of $5000 dollars. Large coin for a small businessman. The printer is appealing.
Switch now to Alberta, which is "Canada West". A man, who ministers to troubled teens, including those that have been enticed into the homosexual lifestyle, writes a "Letter to the Editor", expounding on the dangers of this lifestyle, and the teaching of it in public schools!!!
Seeing the damage firsthand, and dealing with it in the Spirit of Grace, he was compelled to trigger the alarm of the damage to the young ones who are exposed and allured to homosexuality.
Well, an indignant group of homosexuals decided that this "unenlightened one" should pay for his "letter to the editor". He is currently being dragged into the Alberta Human Rights court, (

That's really nice Svend! Pastors and preachers are exempt from your little law, eh? Yeah right! Nobody should believe the word of a man caught red-handed stealing a $50,000 dollar piece of jewelry. Not to mention walking away scott-free from such an adventure. AND on a day that represents much to a Christian. (

Anybody see the sick irony of Satan here?
Pray my brethren. We sorely need your faith and your love here in Canada. We have/are becoming a nation to be despised.
