A town with no Muslims publicly banned stoning and acid burning of women

Evidence

Perhaps nothing expresses the rising hysteria better than the action taken by a small rural town in Quebec to declare formally that the town forbids the stoning of women and the burning of them with acid. Explaining why a town of three hundred white citizens in which there are no Muslims felt compelled to proclaim its ‘standards’ publicly, the town’s mayor simply declared: ‘I like the way we live and I don’t want it to change.’ — Sherene Razack, Casting Out, 28 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
