Not long [after the C-16 controversy] the following message was sent from his wife’s email address exhorting recipients to sign a petition opposing Ontario’s Bill 28. That bill proposed changing the language in legislation about families from “mother” and “father” to the gender-neutral “parents.”

A new bill, introduced in Ontario on September 29th, subjugates the natural family to the transgender agenda. The bill — misleadingly called the ‘All Families Are Equal Act’ — is moving extremely fast. We must ACT NOW to stop this bill from passing into law.”

This is not a free-speech issue so Jordan is wearing a different political hat. And what does a “transgender agenda” have to do with a bill protecting same-sex parents? What is this all about?

Combined with the knowledge that he had mis-represented Bill C-16, I started seeing JBP in a different light. He is misrepresenting people's intentions for his own ends. Shit like this is why I don't support social conservatism. Society evolves (and usually improves), deal with it. What bothers me is that his appeals sound like an effort to turn the clock back to a mythical golden age.
