The Evangelical Fellowship of Canada (EFC) has voiced its regret over the passage of Bill C-38, the Civil Marriage Act, which will legalise marriage between same-sex couples in all courthouses and city halls in Canada. The EFC fears the new law will have detrimental effects to both the family and religious freedom in the country.

Bruce Clemenger, president of the EFC, said: 'Today our government has chosen to redefine the foundational institution of our society. The consequences of this massive social experiment have not been fully examined or understood.'"
