Alberta Town Outlaws Swearing, Spitting, Screaming, and Oh–Assembling
Taber, Alberta, has passed an ordinance banning foul language, yelling, screaming, and spitting in public, in an effort to improve the quality of life in this town about 32 miles (51 km) east of the city of Lethbridge. Other behavior under attack: loud noises and assemblies of three persons or more, if the police believe that those gathering might disturb the peace. Local attorneys stand at the ready to consult with those who run afoul of the law. More here from the Globe and Mail.
