Toque - it is there for a reason.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumcision#Canada

The Fetus and Newborn Committee of the Canadian Paediatric Society posted "Neonatal circumcision revisited" in 1996 and "Circumcision: Information for Parents" in November 2004.[109] The 1996 position statement says that "circumcision of newborns should not be routinely performed", and the 2004 advice to parents says: "The overall evidence of the benefits and harms of circumcision is so evenly balanced that it does not support recommending circumcision as a routine procedure for newborns."[81]
