Plural Wife

Syndicate content
Introspection and self-reflection of a former plural wife. Though I am no longer living polygamy, I maintain my faith and beliefs.

Plural family arrangements should not be criminal. The state has no business dictating the personal, private and family arrangements of consenting adults. Most plural families are loving, nurturing, and dedicated to each other. As with any marriage or family, there can be challenges. Polygamous families are no different.

Canadian Reference Case Ruling Draws Sharp Criticism

Tue, 11/29/2011 - 04:40
The ruling came down on the Canadian Reference case. You can read the 300+ page opinion here: Reference re: Section 293 of the Criminal Code of Canada, 2011 BCSC 1588

Interestingly, there have been several articles, editorials and opinion pieces published that are critical of the Opinion. I'm going to post those links here because I agree with the opinions expressed.

Here they are:

Macleans - Emmett Macfarlane A Confused Judicial Treatise on Polygamy
National Post - Jesse Kline on Polygamy - State Shouldn't Interfere in Consenting Adult Relationships
The Globe and Mail - Tabatha Southey - We have as Many Double Standards on Polygamy as Solomon had Wives
