		After all, despite Boyd’s willingness to respond to whatever voice manages to lobby her, as it stands now there is nothing in the Arbitration Act that says that religious-based arbitration is allowed, and her report confirms that.

		Former attorney-general Marion Boyd's 150-page report favouring the introduction of Sharia, or "Muslim principles" (in her language), in the proposed Arbitration Board has become the proverbial last straw.
		Name calling - the portrayal of Marion Boyd as "racist" and the Muslim advocates of Sharia as "fundamentalists", or the Muslim opponents of Sharia as "apostates" - is not going to help anybody.
		Marion Boyd and like minded non-Muslim well wishers of the Canadian Muslim community should learn more about Sharia, Islam and Muslims.

		Boyd's review, which began at the request of Premier Dalton McGuinty in June, was prompted by the announcement of another Muslim group, the Islamic Institute of Civil Justice, that they would provide shariah arbitrators to parties who wanted them, just as Jewish and Christian groups do using their own religious texts or customs.

		In her report, Boyd noted that some "participants in the Review fear that the use of arbitration is the beginning of a process whose end goal is a separate political identity for Muslims in Canada, that has not been the experience of other groups who use arbitration."
		Most of the concerns about the creation of "Shariah" tribunals have focused on the fear that Muslim women may feel they are being forced into taking part in a process of binding arbitration according to Muslim family law instead of resolving their disputes through the court system.
		In her report, Boyd stressed that any faith-based system would have to conform to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

	Humanist Association of Toronto - Sharia Letters
		Marion Boyd has presented is a long and complex report with some very good suggestions and observations and with some with which I have serious concerns. Below is by no means a thorough and exhaustive review of the report. Rather it is a highly subjective and personal analysis of the points that particularly interested me.
		There is something inherently dishonest in Marion Boyd’s “review of arbitration of family law and inheritance matters and its impact on vulnerable people”.
		When Marion Boyd or I use arbitration that is true. But for thousands of women in Ontario they use it because for social, religious, economic, psychological and other reasons, they really have no choice. They have only a legal choice, but in reality, they have no other choice.
