: in our rights."

: as a result of this decision."

Your comments are right on the mark.  These things will happen and much of
it has already happened, the CRTC for example has ruled that no
broadcastor, including religious broadcastors, can say anything negative
about homosexuality.  Hows that for living in a free country.
