Gay marriage and US acceptance
Since it is now legal in Canada (at least Ontario) for same sex marriages to take place, I was wondering about any requirements of the US to recognize these marriages.
For instance, if a couple from Canada (legally married there) were to move to the US, is the US obligated (by some sort of treaty) to recognize that marriage here? I don't know how detailed treaties are and whether they even mention marriage. If yes, is this recognition a sort of 'back door' approach to gay marriages (which I am in favor of) here? Bob
