Two young children are to be adopted by a gay couple, despite the protests of their grandparents. The devastated grandparents were told they would never see the youngsters again unless they dropped their opposition. The couple, who cannot be named, wanted to give the five-year-old boy and his four-year-old sister a loving home themselves. But they were ruled to be too old - at 46 and 59. For two years they fought for their rights to care for the children, whose 26-year- old mother is a recovering heroin addict.Here in Canada, the legal conditions for a similar tragedy were established years ago. The very same bill which had finalized the redefinition of marriage, also contained a clause that replaced the definition "natural parents" with "legal parents"; thus becoming a first step towards imposing a fatherless or motherless home on a child as a matter of state policy. Disguised as a "human rights" issue, spearheaded by the activism of the local Liberal and NDP politicians, fast-tracked by the threats of "charter" challenges, homosexual adoption made its way from coast to coast.
...
When the grandparents eventually conceded defeat, they were assured by social workers that they would still have regular contact with them. The fostering arrangement worked well, but the council decided that the children should be adopted, to give them a permanent home. The grandparents agreed - as long as they could be assured that the adoptive parents would be a loving mother and father. The couple were then told an adoption had been arranged - but the grandfather ‘hit the roof’ when he discovered that the adoptive parents were two gay men.
...
When they made their opposition clear, however, the couple were told that social workers would ‘certainly look’ at allowing them access to the children ‘when you are able to come back with an open mind on the issues’.
Not sure if there's still a province that stands by the old principle that every child deserves to have a mother and a father. What we can be sure of - is that every province has more than enough radical social workers who would be more than happy to find an excuse to take the children away from their loving parents or relatives and hand them over to perverts - as an act of "tolerance", as a show of "open mindedness" and as an exercise in "equal rights". And that is a threat to every parent.
