-- TORONTO -— An Ontario boy can legally have two mothers and a father, the province's highest court ruled Tuesday.It's hard to imagine that the courts could now, similarly but reciprocally, rule against, say, Muslims in polygamous marriages... or even a group of people in a commune wanting to be collective parents of all the kids in their self-defined group.
The same-sex partner of the child's biological mother went to court seeking to also be declared a mother of the boy.
Not that there's anything wrong with 7 dads and 15 moms...
UPDATE: Liberal Attorney-General Michael Bryant is M.I.A.
Smells like... no new taxes, Hydro payoff, Caledonia...
“The government was not a party and did not intervene in this case, but the Ministry of the Attorney-General is reviewing the decision,” he said Wednesday. “And while we are reviewing the decision, we won't be making any further comment.”
