Ontario Set To Pass Anti-Sharia Law To Protect Muslim Women
By Lost Budgie
Tuesday, February 14, 2006
The Ontario Legislature returned to work today - and one
of the pieces of law set to pass within the next three weeks is Bill 27, the
"Family Statute Law Amendment Act."
What is unique about this law is that it is being
introduced for one purpose only: to prevent Muslims from participating in a
successful arbitration process that sanctions arbitration of custodial and
marital disputes by religious tribunals. Toronto Star Article
Although Christians and Jews have quietly and
successfully run religion-based arbitration tribuals for a decade, they will
now lose this legal right in the name of "fairness" as Ontario cannot
legally exclude one religious group and allow others to continue.
Ontario Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty had previously been prepared to recognize "parts" of Muslim Sharia law, but did a 180 degree turn in the face of massive public opposition: much of which came from Muslim women.
Alia Hogben, executive director of the Canadian Council
of Muslim Women summed it up by saying, "We don't want to be ghettoized. We're Canadian women."
The problem, of course, is the brutal and barbaric nature
of Muslim Sharia law as widely practiced - which includes such provisions as...
Wife Hitting as Religiously Sanctioned Family Discipline
Wife as Husband's Property
Children as Husband's Property
Sanctioned Polygamy
Child brides for older men.
Stonings for Adultery CAUTION - VIDEO NOT PRETTY (wwww.apostatesofislam.com/media/stoning.htm)
Amputations as Punishment.
Eye Gouging as Punishment.
The Muslim view of "Human Rights" as
illustrated by the actual decisions of Sharia Law Tribunals throughout the
Muslim world is hardly a model that should be incorporated into Canadian
jurisprudence in any form.
For supporters of Sharia in Western societies, the devil
IS in the details of how Sharia is really practiced when implemented. It must
be a tough sell when the system you want to implement here includes rape of
daughters and wives as punishment for a man's lawbreaking.
Yes, you read that correctly - Muslim Sharia Tribunals
still call for rape of women family members as punishment many times a year. Sure, many Muslim scholars will argue
that this is not "correct" Sharia - but the truth of any value system
is not illustrated in what people say, but in the actions of the people who
profess to share that value system.
