==Liberal Opposition==
There has been liberal opposition to father's day, wanting to replace it with "Family Day." This concept was created in Canada due to the legislation of [[Same sex marriage]] as it was felt to be unfair to adopted children of Same-sex couples. Such a move has been opposed by many normal parents who do not want to see this tradition being overtaken by political corectness.<ref>http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/05/23/parents-launch-petition-to-bring-back-fathers-day-cards-after-elementary-school-replaces-holiday-with-family-day/</ref> The Liberal opposition do not seem to care about honoring the role of the father, which is highly important for the support and the guidance for children.
