Taber bylaw bans public swearing, spitting and yelling in Alberta town

Watch your language in the small Alberta town of Taber, where the council has passed a bylaw that outlaws swearing in public.

The first offence would cost $150, while a second offence could set you back $250 — and that goes for yelling or screaming in public as well.

Taber Mayor Henk De Vlieger​ said council is going to give the bylaw a six-month trial before reviewing it. The mayor said the bylaw will only be enforced in extreme circumstances.

"It's just like every other tool, you can use it and abuse it," he said. "A hammer I can use to pound a nail, which it is intended for, or it can kick in your brains."
