The decision is also yet another giant step in the marginalization of conservative Christians, who are becoming an ever more endangered species in public life. We've already seen the Trudeau government's efforts to stamp out wrongthink by withholding summer jobs funds from groups that refuse to sign its "attestation" saying they respect abortion rights. This is secular bigotry - liberal intolerance - at its worst. We've already seen debates around the removal of funding from religiously based institutions that are constrained by their founding principles from offering assisted death.
