Some animals are more equal...

Than others...
-- EDMONTON -- A Hutterite community in Alberta that believes willfully being photographed is a sin has won the legal right to have a provincial driver's licence without a picture.

Madam Justice Carole Conrad wrote in yesterday's 37-page decision that driving is important to the Hutterites' communal way of life, and the lack of photo-free licences violated their Charter rights.
Where would we be without the sacred Charter of Rights... I mean, besides having one set of law that applied equally to each and every one of us?
