Liberals in Canada think our morals are improving. “Improving”, to liberals, means legalizing prostitution, legalizing pot-smoking, spending our nations’ treasure on taxpayer-funded abortions without any limitations at all whatsoever, state-run media, state-run daycare and indoctrination programs, social programs to reduce productivity and inhibit personal responsibility, patronage appointments to every facet of government and the judiciary, high taxes, huge governments, Liberal Party payoffs to citizens and corporations in order to get them addicted to the Liberal Party, promoting gay marriage, being anti-American, being anti-religion, and of course refusing to defend our nation militarily and promote freedom and democracy throughout the world.

A majority felt “homosexual relations” were unacceptable, with 52 percent of the respondents disapproving.
More public tolerance was shown for other behaviors and their attendant outcomes. The poll found 66 percent accepted divorce, 58 percent accepted sex between unmarried men and women, and 54 percent did not have a problem with children born out of wedlock—a figure that has risen 11 points in the past three years.
