If the province of Ontario has already decided to sanction special Roman Catholic and Jewish tribunals, then it would be highly unjust of it to disallow an Islamic tribunal. If they are so worried about preventing discrimination against women, then they should not have "opened the door" (so to speak) by setting up these religious tribunals in the first place.
Does the government actually "sanction" the tribunals or does it simply refrain from banning them?
The entanglement with religion, morality, and religious law is, perhaps, another argument in favor of states just recognizing "civil unions" for everybody, and leaving marriage to society and to the churches.
Absolutely
However, note that allowing some to participate in marriages that are strictly religious in nature necessarily means that churches would have sole authority over those marriages. This would require the presence of tribunals.
It goes without saying that BRTD's religious restrictions would be blatantly unconstitutional.
