"To what purpose are powers limited, and to what purpose is that limitation committed to writing,
if these limits may, at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained?"
-- Chief Justice John Marshall, Marbury v. Madison, 1803
Ah, the Canadian Army. Such a lethal fighting force.
As far as his fiancé was concerned, Officer Cadet Jason Stewart was planning a simple weekend getaway to Toronto.
But when a white stretch limo rolled up outside Joey Schwehr’s Kingston, Ont., home Friday afternoon, he realized it was much more than that. It became the much-anticipated weekend they would say their vows, making Stewart, who attends Kingston’s Royal Military College, the first man in the military to marry another man.
“The first time we went on a date, (Joey) said he wanted to be picked up in a white stretch limo with white roses in the back and be surprised,” said Stewart, 19, from the Fairmont Royal York hotel yesterday afternoon, just hours after they were wed.
Accompanied by a few close friends, the two were married at city hall. Last night, they celebrated at the Britney Spears concert after finding front-row tickets for $150 apiece.
Nothing says “Terminate with extreme prejudice” more than a gay wedding with white roses and a Britney Spears concert. Following their honeymoon Stewart will be stationed in the Canadian Army’s elite interior decoration corps.
