CBC, Global and CTV are all abuzz about the new 16-point statement of values released by the good burghers of Gatineau today.
Apparently it covers everything from smelly cooking to bribery and a lot in between. There is much angst in the media and talk of paternalistic approach to new immigrants. I think the author of the article that follows has a few good points to make in the lists favor.
