Well I've posted up some weird American laws in the "Everything Forum"...here are some Canadian ones...so how many times have you broken the law

1-It is illegal for non-dark sodas to contain caffeine.
(and the point of this is???)

2-In Alberta, wooden logs must not be painted.
(not even with that yellow reflective paint so you don't smack into it???)

3-In British Colombia, its illegal to kill a sasquatch.
(interesting but is there such a thing???)

4-In Nova Scotia, its illeagl to water ones lawn while its raining.
(This should be a law in Ontario cuz I've seen enough people doing this)

5-In Ottawa, its illegal to eat icecream on Bank St. on a Sunday.
(Ok good to know if I ever decide to go Ottawa)

6-In Toronto, you can't drag a dead horse down Yonge on a Sunday.
(Hmmmmmm so can you drag one up Yonge St on a Sunday???)

7-In Quebec, Margarine producers can't make their margarine yellow.
(Ok so wtf makes in yellow then everywhere else???)
 
8-Comic books which depict any illegal acts are banned.
(But it's ok to hear rappers rap about it on the radio)

9-35% of a radio stations content must be "Canadian Content".
(Which is fine by me cuz most Euro and Freestyle is Canadian)

10-You may not pay for a fifty-cent item with only pennies.
(OMG so next time the old Nona comes to work an wants to pay with her 2340987239847 pennies I'm calling the cops)

11-Citizens may not publicly remove bandages.
(Ok another one that's good to know)

12-No one in Canada may watch or listen to an encrypted broadcast which is not licensed by the Canadian government. This means using US satellite systems such as "DirecTV" is illegal.
(Ha no one follows this one)

13-It is illegal to kill a sick person by frightening them.
(So is it legal to kill them in any other way???)

14-It is illegal to pretend to practice witchcraft.
(Dammit so much for that idea)

In Alberta

1-Businesses must provide rails for tying up horses.
(Now if only they could promise the same for cars)

2-All business signs in the province of Quebec must be in French. If the business operator wishes to have other languages on the sign, the French must be larger than the other languages is. (Bill 86)
