Beth Graham brings in the socially conservative reinforcements

Just learned from Twitter that Tory MPP Garfield Dunlop is in town to support Beth Graham for the Ottawa West-Nepean by-election. Ottawa West-Nepean is of course represented federally by Tory MP John Baird, who was outed as gay by Toronto Centre PC candidate Pam Taylor during the recent campaign. Wonder how he feels about Dunlop coming around considering this is his record:

Garfield Dunlop is busy on the hustings, giving the same spiel at every door in his suburban Ontario district.

"I've got some literature here on same-sex marriage," says the avuncular politician, pressing a pamphlet into the palm of a white-haired woman who smiles and motions him into her home. "It's a sin," he continues, climbing into the foyer. "And it could tear apart the fabric of our society."


Beth Graham's hidden agenda indeed.

I'm actually quite curious, but IS John Baird gay?
