National Post: Canada: New citizenship guide says no to ‘barbaric’ practices
— Canada’s “The Rights and Responsibilities of Canadian Citizenship” document states: “In Canada, men and women are equal under the law… Canada’s openness and generosity do not extend to barbaric cultural practices that tolerate spousal abuse, ‘honour killings,’ female genital mutilation or other gender-based violence. Those guilty of these crimes are severely punished under Canada’s criminal laws.”
