OTTAWA, May 12, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Tory MP Elsie Wayne who was called a hatemonger and bigot for her comments in the House of Commons strongly opposing homosexual ‘marriage’, has refused to back down from her stand despite the criticism.  Wayne told ATV news reporters today, “Everybody has the freedom speech. I don’t know why every other group has the right to freedom of speech, but those of us who believe in the tradition of family values and husband and wife as marriage are not allowed to speak out. I just don’t understand that.”  Listen to Michael Coren’s exclusive LifeSite commentary on Elsie Wayne and gay ‘marriage’: https://www.lifesitenews.com:7070/ramgen/Coren/051003elsiewayne.rm   To contact Wayne with a message of support:  Ottawa telephone:  (613) 947-4571 Ottawa fax:
