SUMMARY
This enactment extends the legal capacity for marriage for civil purposes to same-sex couples in order to reflect values of tolerance, respect and equality, consistent with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. It also makes consequential amendments to other Acts to ensure equal access for same-sex couples to the civil effects of marriage and divorce.

From the Parliament website.

So I wasn't exactly right in what I said, but I was right in that it's taking care of the divorce issue, too.
