Lazarus_Long. ....."This one you ain't gonna BELIEVE:"..... Came close but never happened....scary though that this brutal stupid moslum law would even be considered anywhere in Canada. Still moslums still carry out their burtal so called honor murders in Canada and a lot of the time the murdering muslin filth get away with it. Sharia law decision opposed by religious groups By David F. Dawes canadianchristianity.com REPRESENTATIVES of some of Canada's major faiths are united -- in opposition to a decision just announced by one of Canada's premiers. "There will be no sharia law in Ontario," Dalton McGuinty declared September 11. Strict Islamic law, however, is not the only thing which will be affected by his government's policy. Speaking to the Canadian Press, he added: "There will be no religious arbitration in Ontario." Such arbitrations, he said, "threaten our common ground." McGuinty said his government intends to provide "one law for all Ontarians. [They] will always have the right to seek advice from anyone in matters of family law, including religious advice. But no longer will religious arbitration be deciding matters of family law." According to The National Post, legislation will be introduced later this year, outlawing the use of religious tribunals. McGuinty's announcement came after international protests over the proposed implementation of sharia law in Ontario. Demonstrations were held recently in various Canadian cities, as well as London, Paris, Amsterdam and Dusseldorf. Protesters maintained that sharia discriminates against women.

You article is very dated. I propose that you are attempting to cause trouble by spreading inaccurate disinformation. If not, you are very behind the times. Try to catchup or others will keep making you look like an idiot. They put the kibosh on that and stopped sharia law in Canada in 2005. September 12, 2005 Ontario premier rejects Shariah law jihadwatch.org A hard-won victory for human rights. It is only unfortunate that the other religious arbitration arrangements have to be sacrificed, which feeds the assumption that they are all morally equivalent. If Western authorities could dare to speak honestly about the distinctive characteristics of Islamic law, this would not be necessary. From AP, with thanks to all who sent this in: TORONTO -- The premier of Ontario said Sunday that he won't let his province become the first Western government to allow the use of Islamic law to settle family disputes and that he will move to ban all religious arbitration. Ontario's provincial government has been reviewing a report recommending that Shariah, or Islamic law, be allowed to settle family disputes like divorce and had said it would soon make a decision. "There will be no Shariah law in Ontario. There will be no religious arbitration in Ontario. There will be one law for all Ontarians," Premier Dalton McGuinty told The Canadian Press. The proposal to let Ontario residents use Islamic law for settling family disputes drew protests Thursday in Canada and at some of its diplomatic sites in Europe. Ontario, the most populous province in Canada, has allowed Catholic and Jewish faith-based tribunals to settle family law matters on a voluntary basis since 1991. The practice got little attention until Muslim leaders demanded the same rights. Officials had to decide whether to exclude one religion, or whether to scrap the religious family courts altogether. McGuinty said such courts "threaten our common ground," and promised his Liberal government would introduce legislation as soon as possible to outlaw them in Ontario. "Ontarians will always have the right to seek advice from anyone in matters of family law, including religious advice," he said. "But no longer will religious arbitration be deciding matters of family law."
