Sharia Canada & America
Like some of its European counterparts, the government of Canada for years has been tacitly condoning the application of Sharia law among Canada's Muslim immigrants by sending multiple welfare checks to polygamous Muslim men who raise multiple families in Canada.

Recently, however, the Muslim community of Ontario, Canada's immigrant-rich province, sought to have the Sharia law officially and legally recognized by the government. After a fierce debate, the Premier of Ontario refused to recognize Sharia, at least for now.

But with Canada's Muslim population doubling in the last 10 years, the demographic trends favor a greater role for Sharia law in Canada, where giving out Bibles is still legal but quoting Bible verses that condemn sins (e.g., homosexuality) is already a punishable hate crime.

How about Sharia in America?

At 9 million, the Muslim population in the United States is still relatively small - about the size of the Hispanic population 25 years ago - but it is growing 6 times faster than the national rate.

And in areas with large Muslim communities, Sharia is already being felt. In Minnesota, for example, Sharia's prohibition against alcohol led the government agency managing the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to propose different color top lights for taxis driven by Muslim drivers so that they can refuse passengers who land with (duty-free) alcohol.

In 2007, Koran for the first time was used to swear into office a new United States Congressman. Carefully positioned away from terrorism, Islam in America is portrayed as a religion of peace.
