Quebec legislature bans the word "weathervane"

http://www.thestar.com/News/article/267582

"Politicians in Quebec's legislature will have to come up with a new way to slag their opponents now that the word `weathervane' has been added to the list of unparliamentary language.

Speaker Michel Bissonnet judged the word to be "hurtful" as the legislature resumed Tuesday after the summer break."
