Just resign

It has nothing to do with religious freedom and everything to do with professional responsibility.
If you resign your position as a marriage commissioner, no gay couple will ever again ask you to officiate at their wedding. But if you want to be a marriage commissioner, you are obliged to officiate at the weddings of anyone who is legally entitled to get married.
It's embarassing to see how our government of Saskatchewan fails to understand that.
Oh well, I supposed we can be grateful that at least the Wall government is asking for a court decision on this issue before passing an unconstitutional law, instead of passing said law first and forcing a couple to spend years in court to get it overturned.
Oh, and don't miss this -- Dawg ups the ante.
