Saw this when I followed a backlink to my site:
<blockquote>
C-68 - a gay rights issue?
C-68 requires prospective firearm permit applicants to list all sexual partners with whom they have "cohabited" during the past two years. When filling out that form, remember that you can be imprisoned for up to five years for making
any false statement. This permit is not a one-time requirement - it must be renewed yearly and thus the firearm control bureacrats will learn your cohabitating sexual partners on an ongoing basis. Not only is this requirement offensive
to many monogamous heterosexuals, it could be catastrophic for any gay or bisexual people who have chosen not to publicly disclose their sexual preference. The firearm control bureacracy wants to know your sexual preference - and
your partner(s) name(s). Why? Why should our government agencies need to know the most intimate details of your life before you are allowed to keep your lawfully purchased firearm? This level of government intrusiveness, which should be bothersome to everyone regardless of sexual orientation, permeates bill C-68 and is one of the main reasons to oppose this flawed legislation. Canada's first openly gay mayor, Winnipeg Mayor Glen Murray, is failing his more private gay or bisexual constituents by supporting C-68.

Obviously, this would be an issue for everyone else, too. Your ex-spouse gets in trouble, the cops visit your abode as well. Lovely.
