A tough sentence -- at least if you eat tough steaks!!!

A Guelph, Ont., man might want to avoid ordering steak for the next two years after a judge banned him from possessing knives – even while eating.
 
"He should be able to get along with a spoon and a fork," Justice R.T. Weseloh told Christopher Cormier's lawyer yesterday. "If he doesn't want to be inconvenienced, he shouldn't commit criminal offences."
 
Cormier, 24, pleaded guilty to eight offences covering a two-month period, including possessing a concealed weapon, taking a vehicle without permission, leaving the scene of an accident, possessing has oil and theft. The judge did allow for an exemption to the knife ban for the purposes of "legitimate work."
