Conservative party leader Stephen Harper was the only
party leader to address last month’s Supreme Court
ruling legalizing Canadian swingers clubs and group
sex venues, in last night’s English-language leadership
debate.
Harper
said he recognizes that many Canadians are unhappy with
the ruling, and said his government would revisit the
issue.
“I
think a lot of Canadians were troubled by that decision,”
said Harper. “[T]he government of Canada can look
at that provision and provide new legislation if it
thinks there’s a way to plug that loophole, and
our [Conservative] government will take a look at what
we can do.”
Prime
Minister Paul Martin and party leaders Jack Layton,
and Gilles Duceppe all ignored the issue of legalized
swingers clubs, although debate moderator Steve Paikin
had opened the topic for discussion.
