Just Married is the firsthand account of an event that made international news headlines and human rights history in January 2001. By following the Christian practice of reading the banns, which has been incorporated into provincial law, the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto married two same-sex couples, issuing each a marriage licence. The Ontario provincial government is being challenged to register the marriages in a case that is expected to proceed to the Supreme Court of Canada; if successful, it will remove the last restriction on equal treatment of homosexuals under the law.
