I have a lot of respect for Mr. McWeeney, QC but I am unsure of the point he is trying to make. No matter what happens with Bill 4, the government could legalize gay marriage tomorrow with a simple act of parliament. Bill 4 will not help or impede this fact. Defining sex as male or female does not strengthen any argument against gay marriage. If a man wants to marry a man that would squarely fall within that definition. Both parties involved are a male or female. Just so happens they are both male. But for the Marriage Act there is nothing in law or the constitution that prevents gay marriage. But for the proviso in the constitution that allows discrimaitiin on matters of marriage the Marriage Act would be unconsituional if Bill 4 passes as a man wanting to marry a man would be discriminatory based on their sex being male or female.
There has got to be more to the story. If she was born in the Bahamas and her birth certificate lists the father who is a Bahamian, she is a citizen of the Bahamas. She needs to higher a lawyer. How about comrad Fred Smith?
What a joke!! Nothing gets done when civil servants are involved without a handout and that is a fact. Handouts can cost someone over 100% of the real cost. And it is not even hidden anymore. Civil servants tell you outright now that they expect something when you return.
"But really sick people who have extra expenses because they have to pay for medical procedures and medications will face a lot of problems because of this."
You mean like the rest of the workforce in the Bahams you ignoramous jack ass.
This is the ignorance that's got this country in the shit hole its in. duppyVAT are you pretending or are you the ignorant assanine mutt that you come off to be?
