Canadian town reconsiders 'Land of Rape and Honey' slogan

When you pull into the small, quaint Saskatchewan town of Tisdale, you are greeted with a sign welcoming you to the Land of Rape and Honey.

It's been the town's slogan for 60 years but some say it's time to rethink the rape part.

The word rape in the slogan refers to rapeseed, a bright yellow crop which has a number of varieties, including canola.

It's a key agriculture product of the town of just 3,200.

But, the town is now asking residents to take a survey asking whether the slogan should be changed.



Some other options include: "A Place to Bee" and "Land of Canola and Honey".
