An effort to put an end to the use of Sharia law in Ontario has remained stalled!

Interestingly enough, this is another instance where the usually Liberally viewed women’s groups are the ones taking the strongest stand against the efforts of Islamists. It is good that groups normally viewed as Liberal agree with us Conservatives regarding this threat.

Women’s groups protested that sharia law is often oppressive towards women and they worried in the power imbalance that often occurs when religion is allowed to dictate law, the rights of women and children would be trampled. And moderate Muslims feared the power of the imams they had come to Canada to avoid would follow them even in this country.
…

Now if moderate Muslims are the overwhelming majority as some would lead us to believe, why is it taking so long to do away with Sharia law in Ontario? And why here in America was a Muslim who spoke out against terrorism kicked out of his mosque? Also studies have found that 80% of mosques here in the USA receive money from Saudi Arabia, that teaches radical Islam. The fact is that the cult of Islam has a radical core and those who claim the radical side have far more proof in a chronological following of the Koran and life of Muhammad.

Robert Spencer has more coverage of Muslim Jamal Miftah being kicked out of his mosque for denouncing terrorists. The mosque will take him back if he apologizes for his article where he stood against terrorists.

In Ontario, it seems Sharia law is not the only thing the proposed changes would end.

…
Other religions already have in place their own faith tribunals, and those, too, would be shut down by the changes.
…

Obviously the other religious groups were not causing any problems, but it’s best that they be done away with also. If people wish to handle their disputes outside of the governing court system, that is something they need to do informally on their own accord. As far as the government is concerned, everybody should be held to the same standards under the same code of laws.
