And in Ontario, if you live together for 2 years then you are
"married."  Recent federal Supreme Court rulings and legislative
changes (removing reference to gender in a wide variety of laws) implies
that the sexual orientation of the couple living together for 2 years is
irrelevant.

Alberta (30 or 40 years behind Canada) is resisting these changes.
