Facing public outcry and a human rights complaint, the city of Gatineau, Que., is getting rid of a controversial “statement of values” for immigrants that advises against honour killings, cooking smelly foods and being late for work. At the time of its publication last November, the city said the 16-point “guide” was intended to help immigrants integrate with their new community by imparting “essential values” shared by all Canadians and Quebecers. The city says it has removed the booklet from circulation and its website.
