It seems that Justice Minister Rob Nicholson is backing off from including “honour killings” as a distinct aspect of the Criminal Code, as sought by some women’s advocates.
Good.

Anyone who thinks about that for a moment, should realize that such an amendment is unnecessary.

A so-called honour killing is nothing but murder, and no justification for it should be accepted in Canada or the U.S.

Those who argue — and some do — that death is justifiable for girls who defy their parents and refuse arranged marriages, or have sexual encounters before marriage, or refuse to wear a veil, or do any of a variety of things that certain cultures frown upon (like using cosmetics or wearing the wrong clothes), are wrong and should not be tolerated.


Agree?

If you live in Canada, you should abide by Canadian laws. No exceptions. :grrrrrr:

As for these lowlife fuckers who actively commit and condone so called "honour killings", throw the book at them! Or ship them back where they came from. :grrrrrr:
