The lawyer for one of two B.C. men accused of practising polygamy is
planning to invoke Canada's gay marriage laws as part of his defence arguments.
Blair Suffredine, who's representing Bountiful resident Winston Blackmore, says they'll be making the argument that the Canadian definition of marriage, which includes same-sex couples, should then also include multiple partners....
The landmark cases against Blackmore, 52, and James Oler, 44, which will determine whether polygamy practised in the name of religion is legal in Canada, began Wednesday.
