Huh?

Of course, there's a little weirdness in that last CBC story; Paul Martin referring to Canada as "world's most post-modern country" is kind of odd, though not necessarily bad. But Stephen Harper trying to spin it as if the Supreme Court is on his side, like so:

Harper said the Supreme Court supports his party's policy because it also declined to express an opinion on whether the traditional definition of marriage is unconstitutional.

No. If they supported your party's policy, they'd have found a legalistic way to tell Martin to fuck off and keep marriage as between a man and a woman. They didn't do that.
