POLL FINDS CANADIAN SUPPORT FOR SSM DROPPING: From the National Post

A new National Post poll suggests Canadians' views on same-sex marriage have shifted markedly in recent months, with a solid majority now
opposed to the notion.

That compares to an almost even split--with a slight advantage to supporters of gay and lesbian marriage--in other polls this summer and fall.

But the new COMPAS Inc. survey, conducted in October and November, also indicates many of those who are against recognizing same-sex couples under the existing marriage law would agree to endorsing such unions in a
separate legal category.

When asked in the COMPAS poll to choose one of three options, 30% said marriage should include only heterosexuals, and 37% said the definition of marriage should stay intact but a new category that includes
same-sex unions should be created.

Only 31% said traditional marriage should be opened to gays.
