canada goes for uniform civil law: good work!

sept 12

in india, the recent violence against women bill had an interesting characteristic: it applies to women of all religions.

the first baby steps towards a uniform civil code in india?

here's the canadian experience. all the semitic types lose big. good for the canadians.

christian and jewish people had voluntary tribunals to settle family disputes, since 1991 in Ontario. and now there is a ruckus , beause the muslims have asked one for themselves and then the premier wakes up and dismisses all forms of tribunals. the premier did not know their existence till today. it the right thing to have uniform civil code but not just when it is inconvenient not to have one.
