It is a move to curb free speech in Canada. We must stop all those who seek to curb free speech, as they do so that they may profit from our ignorance.

I strongly oppose the editorial policies of CanWest to give unqualified support to the criminal action of Israel in occupied Palestine. I demand that you stop your SLAPP suit against two individuals who parodied this support. I will gladly give up my subscription if this suit continues and I will encourage others to do so.

You bludgeon your own reputation by pursuing this lawsuit! Shame on you. Parody is an important and crucial tool of free speech. You bludgeon your own reputation by pursuing this lawsuit!

Check out the Viacom vs. YouTube fight. Viacom backed down within weeks and pulled out of court, even though the judge found *for* them. This was done by boycotting both Viacom and its advertisers. Anonymous backed off the Church of Scientology from using DMCA [Tom Cruise video] and supposedly "terrorist" legislation against the right to speak out. CoS countered by buying advertising. Anonymous came back with massive uploading of anti-CoS videos and street protests. This fight has been going on all over the intertubes. Has everyone in Canada been sleeping? Get the general libertarian free speech netmongers in on the fight. Call for a CanWest AND its' advertisers' boycott. My problem with this isn't whether it's Palestine vs. Israel and the media bias. It's much simpler. Parody is a political statement and cannot be shut down just because CanWest doesn't like a different viewpoint. I'm off to prepare video for this fight and I will see that a copy goes to Rabble. You are more than welcome to add it [Creative Commons licensing] if you like.
