Quebec uses a completely different legal system. Quebec uses the Napoleonic Code or Civil Law while the rest of Canada uses Common Law.

I can't believe any judge in their right mind would over turn a parental punishment. I think grounding the girl was too light of a punishment!

You say only in Canada...we say only in Quebec!
I don't think it has anything to do with the Napoleonic code! Louisiana's legal system is also based on the Napoleonic code, and you would NEVER see a decision like this in Louisiana!
