Thread Name: Colorado City: Folk Song on Polygamy
Subject: RE: Colorado City: Folk Song on Polygamy
So far, the settlement practicing polygamy in southern British Columbia hasn't been bothered. The group has been active for some 65 years in Bountiful, B.C., approximally 1000 members in 2006.
A paper was published by three lawyers at Queens University, recommending that the practice be legalized, and pointing out that the practice may be constitutional and prohibition illegal.

The article was published in the Vancouver Sun on January 13, 2006. The RCMP asked some questions in 2006, but no prosecutions were laid. Nothing in the news lately.
