6th International Editorial Cartoon Competition
1. The theme of the 6th International Editorial Cartoon Competition, is “Cartooning in a dangerous environment”: to illustrate the pressure under which cartoonists perform their craft: the “chill” of a potential libel suit, the temptation of self-censorship, and security, political, economic and/or editorial constraints to artistic expression.
2. Prizes: three prizes will be given: a first prize of $1500, a crystal trophy, plus a Certificate from the Canadian Commission for UNESCO, a second prize of $750, and a third of $500. All sums are in Canadian dollars. Ten additional cartoons will receive an ³Award of Excellence². Regrettably no financial remuneration accompanies the Awards of Excellence.
3. A maximum of three cartoons will be accepted from each cartoonist. They may be in color or black and white. They may be original, copies, or attachments to an e-mail. They may not have won an award. They will not be returned.

Show them what true conservative humor while “Cartooning in a dangerous environment” is all about!
I should give this a try myself.
Even if it is a "Stick drawing" done with your "Off Hand", go for it!
Ping. Gordon, how about a cartoon of Clinton delivering tainted blood to Canada?
Beheading...
JIHAD THIS, BABY!
write at the e-mail above and ask, I am sure they will let you know, but I doubt it. animations do not play well in magazines and newspapaers.
I was just going to ping you on this. Go for it!!
I think I'll try my hand at this. Bwahaha.
BTW, what's the conversion of $CAN to US$?

Hi Humblegunner,
I'm Allegra's little sister and I am doing post-graduate work in England, and just want to say that that is f-in brilliant!! The normal peeps in the UK are getting really fed up with all the appeasement and apologies that the Labour party makes toward these morons, so hopefully a change is afoot...And, no, before any apologist Libs brand me a racist, I'm not, I just don't think Western Civilization can co-exist with these effin morons...
Western civilization can't help but prevail, give my best
to the blokes and yobs enduring the pacification effort.
I like yer sister! ;-)
