MPs react to BC polygamy ruling

I have a new story up on the national page of Xtra.ca today, which gathers political and legal scholar reaction to yesterday's BC Supreme Court decision on the polygamy reference. Being as I knew it was coming down the pipe, I gave the various parties a heads-up, and to their credit, they were ready with spokespeople for me. And once again, UofO law professor Carissma Mathen proved that she's a fantastic resource on these kinds of legal questions, and many thanks to her once again for taking the time to speak to me and explain some of the issues involved - and for creating a bit of controversy in the decision.
