Satellite dishes are also illegal in Canada... just like in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

I thought that there was at least Canadian satellite service available to Canadians and it was just illegal to receive American satellite TV.

Amazing. I didn't know that. Absolutely astounding - it reveals much about the Canadian government - and why, after Quebec eventually splits away, the English-speaking provinces (other than Ontario, the seat of Candian socialism) will court statehood with the United States.

On the other hand, if things keep going the way they're going _here_, satellite dishes and Internet connections may someday be illegal HERE, as well!

Cheers!

Satellite dishes are also illegal in Canada... just like in the Islamic Republic of IranSatellite dishes aren't banned in Canada. Only satellite content controlled by the government is permitted. You can't tune into the U.S. satellite services becasue that would violate the Canadian content laws. The coverage of criminal trials cannot be done until after the trial is over. ALso, the goverment censors news stories on election day untill all polls are closed. Canada is the incubator for the Thought Police and where government beurocrats know what's best for you to learn and that does not include anything pro-American.
