HISTORY IN THE MAKING 2008-2016

Good luck!

We've spent a good many years discussing politics, life, society and history. Most of all, the makers of history. The great events that changed the world - people, places, actions. Small acts have changed its hard-worn course, and effort and circumstance can make of its small actors immortal greats. In line with that sentiment, it seems pertinent now to recognize the potential of those who've made up this community for years, obvious through their contributions to the spirited debate and discussion that has proceeded here. HITM has sadly gone silent, though perhaps not lacking for things to say about making history, but rather for the realization that it is time we all commenced to do so, and make our mark.

Good luck to you all, see you in the history books!

And, if you decide to go to a Canadian court, you get to choose Sharia law! Hurray!

Hey, if they want it, fine by me. Our tolerance of other beliefs is one of the reasons we're among the most respected nations on earth.

Oh, and dumbass, you'd know that civil court doesn't do Sharia, if you knew anything about the Canadian legal system.

Um, civil court what?

Please show me where in my post I said anything about civil courts.

Not only that, but unless federally recognized as a court under the canadian law and constitution, it would have no ruling on any matters anyhow. Call it sharia, but it's convictions count for about as much as a Jew would in nazi germany.

What? :huh:

I don't know which Canada you live in, but in the North American Canada, people can choose to go to a Sharia court if they wanted to.

As I said before, if it's legally recognized as a court, by the federal, or provincial authorities.

Well then, there we go. Although..... might I ask where this source came from?

Cause I've been reading the papers daily for years, and it's never once made headlines, let alone the paper.

I haven't heard anything about it, so I'm kinda skeptical. Do you have a source or some article I could read?

I'm not accusing you of lying, I've just never heard anything about that.

The introduction of sharia law in Ontario, Canada, was effectively recommended by a 2004 report which prompted debate and street protests, both for and against its findings.

The act was an attempt to deal with a backlog of court cases. It enabled groups to use the guiding principles of their faith to help settle disputes over divorce, inheritance and custody.
