Stupid Laws in Canada
Have you ever watched any of those crime shows on television and seen many countries have way different laws then our own? Well this got me thinking about my own country "Canada" and some of the dumb laws we have here and I'd like to share some of them with all of you.
- In Nova Scotia a person is not allowed to water their grass when it's raining. Not like someone would do this, but it's against the law in Nova Scotia!
- In Cobourg, Ontario if you have a water trough in your front yard, it must be filled by 5:00am!
- In Guelph, Ontario, the city is classified as a no pee zone!
- In Toronto, Ontario, where I lived, it's illegal to drag a dead horse down Younge St on a Sunday!
- In Montreal, Ontario you are not allowed to wash your car in the street or park your car in a way that it blocks your own driveway!
- In Ottawa, Ontario you are not allowed to eat ice cream on Bank St on a Sunday!
- In Beaconsfield, Canada it's considered an offense to have more than two colours on your house; and you are not allowed to own a log cabin!
- In Uxbridge, Ontario it's illegal to have an internet connection faster than 56k!
- In Kanata, Ontario, believe this, it's illegal to have a clothes line in your back yard!
- Finally, in Oshawa, Ontario it's illegal to climb trees!
Some laws are so worthless they are not even worth the time or effort to try and even enforce. Check out some of your local dumb laws and you'll be surprised in what you might find is illegal where ever you might live.

Funny list lol... but heres one that will top at least 6 of those. "IF two or more Native or Metis people walk onto your property in Saskatoon Saskatchewan you can LEGALY shoot them if your in a covered wagon
I dont beleive these, because if someone would take the time to look up and write this list, they would have the time to realise MONTREAL is in QUEBEC not ONTARIO
wow, i live in nova scotia and i know for a fact that there is no law even close to not watering your grass when its raining!
Dumbass.... These laws don't exist. If they do I've broken the Ottawa ones, and the Oshawa ones numerous times,and you messed up on a lot of place names. There's 2 Beaconsfield's and It's Montreal, Quebec. I am a proud Canadian
Why is Guelph a no pee zone?
I don't get the Guelph law.
The ottawa one could be true; like it could just be a VERY old one that they never wrote out
What's with the locational errors? Montreal, Ontario? Last time I check it was in Quebec! Beaconsfield, Canada? Which one? There's one in Quebec and in Ontario!
Yeah, teh Ottawa one isn't true either. I live there and I'm sure I've done that before.
