Whither Canada?

In case you have been sleeping...

It seems as though the Canadian government has gone and gotten itself into quite a pickle.  Big scandal, loads of corruption, that sort of thing.  Only trouble is, the average Canadian doesn't know it.  It seems that the Canadian government has control of the media, and prohibits people from broadcasting news that isn't favorable to the government.  Well, then.  My my.  So in comes the internet.  It seems some Canadians have learned that they can get their news from below the 49th Parallel.. Oh dear.  So what does Canada do?  Why, they make it illegal for anyone in Canada to link to an internet site that has information about the scandals.  Naturally, bloggers are all over it.  For a great rundown of the situation, complete with plenty of links, see this post from Michelle Malkin.  And now, just to draw the wrath of the Mounties, I am linking (again!) to the forbidden blogger.

If anyone North of the Border reads this, I will officially be a wanted man in Canada.  Well, I say come and get me, eh?

Oh, wait, you can't--because our First Amendment trumps your Mickey Mouse foreign law, at least until our Supreme Court "finds" another way to restrict our rights using the precedent of international law.

Maybe what Canadians need isn't a First Amendment, but a Second...
