Well put Blah - and I agree he does look like a love child of Ed Asner and Bob Hoskins.

At least the Canadian courts didn't pander to any 'it's our culture' BS.

I have no issue with people who have moved to another country still practising their culture and traditions, as long it is within the laws of their chosen country, and ideally within the accepted norms of their chosen country. I believe that we can learn a lot from each other's cultures and like the diversity of multiculturalism, but if you aren't prepared to adapt to the country you have chosen to move to you can always choose to leave again.
