Non-therapeutic circumcision and Canadian law
==Non-therapeutic circumcision and Canadian law==
The Government of Canada officially states:
<blockquote>
The equality of Women and Men
In Canada, men and women are equal under the law. Canada’s openness and generosity do not extend to barbaric cultural practices that tolerate spousal abuse, “honour killings,” female genital mutilation, forced marriage or other gender-based violence. Those guilty of these crimes are severely punished under Canada’s criminal laws.<ref>{{REFbook

Non-therapeutic [[circumcision]] of children is a practice that is of uncertain lawfulness in Canada.
