Why is that any of your business?
It is against the law. &

You are right, It's not against the law anymore. IE:
PROVINCE/TERRITORY LAWS
No province or territory has sodomy laws.
All province and territory ages of sexual consent are 14 for oral sex, and 18
for anal sex.
*************************************************
So Homos can legally go around blowing boys of 14 and get it up their ass at 18.
That's real progress!
When you are blowing and buggering boys in the US make sure you know what state
you do it in
