    Canada
    1937 Canada Wife Beating IS Legal

    8th Aug. 1937 : In Hamilton, Ontario a man who was charged with beating his wife was deemed to be within his legal rights. Canadian judge, William McLeary cited the English Common Law made in 1879 which stated that a man has a right in certain cases to “chastise or confine” his wife.

    What's good for them is good for us. Let's have the day off, get pissed and go home and slap the wife :D
