Quebec town bans stoning women
I'll say its about time! From the Globe and Mail:
Montreal — A rural Quebec town has taken the unusual step of formally declaring that it is forbidden to stone women in public — part of a list of “norms” that it says is aimed at potential immigrants.
Herouxville, about 165 kilometres northeast of Montreal, passed a document at a town council meeting this month that outlines what it considers to be its official behavioural norms.
The document, sent to both the provincial and federal governments, states that “a woman can. . . drive a car, sign cheques, dance, decide on her own..."
“We have to ensure that people who come here want to live like us,” Mr. Drouin told Montreal's La Presse newspaper. “The Muslims that want to impose Shariah (law), if they realized that here we don't stone women, they would never have come.”
This is an idea whose time has come. Maybe they should also mention something about blowing youself up as a means of free speech. Should be a no-no everywhere.
