... the Pajamahadeen?!!
No one escapes the long arm and eye of the pajamahadeen. No one. Bwahahaha!
The fact that they have to discuss a major issue affecting their own government over here because it would be illegal to do so over there puts the lie to any claim that Canada is a free country. Socialism enslaves.
It may not happen this time, but you just watch:
At some point in the future (and this would likely happen if the corrupt Liberals are still in power) when a 'gag order' or 'publication ban' is in place, Canadian ISPs may be directed to block websites like FR or other American websites/blogs/news resources in order to enforce whatever ban is in effect.
There are not that many major Canadian ISPs (compared to the US), and they don't want to incur the wrath of their imperial masters in Ottawa.
Sounds like Canada's subjects need a 'first amendment' -- then maybe they can become Canada's citizens.
... the Pajamahadeen?!!
That is precisely why this - place, for want of a better word - must be defended, fiercely if necessary, for the attacks on it will increase in their desperation as those who would protect corruption realize that their game is threatened.
The San Francisco ordinance is only the beginning. China has suggested that the UN be given control of the Internet. Mainstream journalists in the United States have suggested it be "regulated." I would look for such demands from an insanely regulation-happy EU.
They must be refused. This is not chaos, this is not anarchy, this is FREEDOM.

The present discussion aside, the above quote is EXACTLY why the UN should NEVER be allowed to control the internet, not even as to their current attempt to control who gets URLs.
