Well then a 'free vote' will just have to change them right back again, won't it ... why can't we have relatively free enterprise without the whacko authoritarian myth-pushers in charge??

You have a snowballs chance in hell of ever getting a free vote in the House with the liberals running the show. Fortunately for those that blindly follow the left-libs, that's a good thing because it saves them from the tedious chore of defending their contentious beliefs in the public forum.....if social policy is dictated, they figure, their views to be "normal" and alternate views to be otherwise. Caring and Compassion by legislation and Supreme Court decree.........a truly Canadian Concept....albiet a bit chickenshit. Consequently, you will seldom see those that are afraid of letting the majority of the populace influence public policy support a political party that does.
