Duels

Marginal note:Duelling

• (b) attempts to provoke a person to challenge another person to fight a duel, or
• (c) accepts a challenge to fight a duel,

is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years.

I'm not sure if "by any means" includes a glove slap. I suppose the argument could be made.
