Mr. Speaker I rise today in support of the definition of a marriage as between one man and one woman.

I support allowing gay couples to marry because of - not in spite of - my values. And many of those values are the same ones deeply held by those who do not believe in gay marriage.

I rise today in support of Bill C-38 the Civil Marriage Act. I rise in support of a Canada in which liberties are safeguarded rights are protected and the people of this land are treated as equals under the law.

I do support a constitutional amendment on marriage between a man and a woman but I would not be going into the states to overturn their state law.

There is no greater excitement than to support an intellectual wife and have her support you. Marriage is a partnership in which each inspires the other and brings fruition to both of you.

I support gay marriage. I support gay marriage because I believe Conservatives support the institutions of commitment.

I am much more open to plural marriage than I was before and I now support it in certain situations. I do believe it is right for some people. But our example in America today is gross abuse - I can't support it in fundamentalist compounds.

I've always been clear I support the traditional definition of marriage.

It's nice to know you have support. Last night I got a marriage proposal. I just laughed.

Spending only what the country can afford rewarding savings encouraging independence supporting marriage: people know that these things are common sense.

The problem for those who assert biblical authority in support of traditional definitions of marriage is that one could with equal validity assert that the lending of money or certain kinds of haircuts are forbidden by God or that slavery and the subjugation of women are authorized by the Lord.

I have not supported same-sex marriage. I have supported civil partnerships and contractual relationships.

I support gay marriage. I believe they have a right to be as miserable as the rest of us.

My number one goal is to love support and be there for my son.

I really believe that everyone has a talent ability or skill that he can mine to support himself and to succeed in life.

These technologies can make life easier can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups get medical information the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I'm not downplaying that.

Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don't do that by sitting around.
