Conservative leader Stephen Harper’s anti-gay marriage ad campaign seems a worthy topic to address here.

However, when we asked CDs Andrew Simon and William Hammond to share their unique insight and give the issue the serious consideration it deserves, little did we know that they had a hand in

triggering the hubbub.
