What grabbed the most attention is that the list includes a specific prohibition against stoning women in public and burning them alive and an interdiction against face covering, except at Halloween - measures clearly aimed at Muslims, even though the town is almost entirely old-stock Quebec francophone and there isn't a single Muslim resident.
So the Muslim groups are against a ban on stoning women to death and burning them alive? The town councilman has basically given these groups a big "fuck you".
Drouin, however, was unrepentant at a council meeting last night, where the council unanimously stood by the initiative and called on Charest to take action on setting rules for immigrants that would apply to the whole province.
Good for him. It's about time that people stood up against groups like this who have ridiculous demands. Go Little Herouxville!
Louise Trudel, who also attended the meeting, insisted there is nothing racist about the Herouxville initiative.
"I have nothing against immigrants, I know a lot of immigrants. But at one point there has to be a limit to accommodating them. If they came here, it must be because they like the way we live."
"We took our religion out of everything, the schools, the government. Why should they try to bring in theirs?"
