Interesting since there are Muslims who have immigrated to Canada that want Canada to allow them to live under Sharia law and be able to practice their faith and marriage customs and not be subjected to Canadian law.

If Canada is catering to same gender marriage, then plural marriage should be allowed.

Yes, we do. Alberta was the last hold out Province, but gave up when the Supreme Court of Canada ruled it illegal to not allow it.

This polygamist community in Bountiful, BC has been in the media a lot in Canada; so I knew it was Canada and not Utah.

He should appeal to the Canadian Supreme Court for Polygamy. If Canada can cater to one group then it should be across the board.
