When In Canada?

A lot of this seems very extreme, but maybe some might agree with this little bit at least?

 

"We wish to inform these new arrivals that the way of life which they abandoned when they left their countries of origin cannot be recreated here,"

NO STONING, CANADA MIGRANTS TOLD

 

Don't stone women to death, burn them or circumcise them, immigrants wishing to live in the town of Herouxville in Quebec, Canada, have been told.

 

The rules come in a new town council declaration on culture that Muslims have branded shocking and insulting.

Quebec is in the midst of a huge debate on integrating immigrant cultures…

 

Its council published the new rules on the town's website.

 

"We wish to inform these new arrivals that the way of life which they abandoned when they left their countries of origin cannot be recreated here," the declaration reads.

 

"We consider it completely outside norms to... kill women by stoning them in public, burning them alive, burning them with acid, circumcising them etc."

 

It points out that women are allowed to drive, vote, dance and own their own homes.

 

The rules ban Sikh children from carrying ceremonial daggers to school, even though the Supreme Court has ruled they can.

 

The man behind the declaration, councillor Andre Drouin, told the National Post newspaper the rules were not racist.

"We invite people from all nationalities, all languages, all sexual orientations, whatever, to come live with us, but we want them to know ahead of time how we live," he said.

 

Mr Drouin said there had been a number of recent incidents of culture clashes that meant the new rules were needed.

In one a Toronto judge ordered a Christmas tree removed from a court so as not to offend non-Christians. In another a Montreal gym installed frosted windows after a Hasidic synagogue complained the sight of adults exercising was offensive.

Good for him.

 

Only those that are first part of a system have any right to try and change it for the majority IMO.

 

So, the Iriquoie are making the laws in Canada, the Sioux in N America, the Inca in S America, the Aborigini tribes in Australia,etc;

Listen to yourself fool.
