Peter and Murray Corren
Peter Corren (born Cook; died 30 December 2009) and Murray Corren (born Warren) — Corren is a combination of their former names — are LGBT-rights activists from Vancouver, British Columbia whose complaint before British Columbia's Human Rights Tribunal led to an agreement whereby the provincial Ministry of Education would consult them on how gays are presented in the school curriculum. Peter Corren died of cancer on 30 December 2009.
==Background==
The Correns, a same-sex couple with one adopted son, are long-time activists for gay rights who have been involved in several high-profile cases. They were among the first gay couples to foster and adopt children in Canada. In the late 1990s, Murray Warren, a Coquitlam schoolteacher, was one of the petitioners in Chamberlain v. Surrey School District, a case that dealt with the Surrey School Board's refusal to approve as learning resources several children's books featuring same-sex parents.〔Mark Hume and Janice Tibbetts, "Ban on books unreasonable, court rules: 'Public schools must mirror diversity of community': Between the covers", ''National Post'' 21 December 2002, A08; Paula Brook, "War over words: it's a battle over three slim storybooks. But it has sparked a bitter values clash in Surrey, British Columbia, ''Chatelaine'' v. 71(12), December 1998, pp. 46–52 (Nancy Knickerbocker, "Supreme Court rules against book bank", ''Teacher Newsmagazine'' 15.3 (Jan./Feb. 2003) )〕
They also were petitioners in an early same-sex marriage case〔(''Gays challenge the marriage law'' ), ''Toronto Star'' 24 July 2001, p. A06; cf.〕 that lifted the ban on same-sex marriage in British Columbia.
They were one of the first same-sex couples to marry in Canada.
