    I'm not entirely happy with CBC coverage of what is going on, the following quotes aren't put in context.

    "Who are we actually governed by?" asked Curran. "Are we governed by our elected representatives or a small cabal of largely left-leaning judges?"

    Among many grassroots conservatives, there has long been a current of anger about "activist judges" whom they believe are overstepping their roles by shaping laws and policies through their decisions.
