I suggest readers not take offence to Tabatha's column because her writing is satire and it is funny....and for Mr. Trost a reminder that he marginalized himself as a potential national leader by choosing to share his perspective on 'the gay thing'....i.e. he's homophobic.

Thankfully, most Canadians have an attitude of live and let live...the foundation of our country to some extent was about two cultures having to work out how to live within the same national state. I think that extends to the large majority of Canadians being 'ok' with the 'gay thing.' They probably have some gays or lesbians in their family or among their friends and have accepted them for who they are.

As some of those commenting, they notice there is a big part of our demographic that are millennials and the Conservative Party will certainly not win them over by being homophobic. It's 2017, not 1957, so let's move on. Let's avoid the divisiveness that is being encouraged south of the border.
