| An Wright Detained
Posted: 10/25/2007 2:08:43 PM | | Peace activist Ann Wright was recently detained at the Ottawa airport as she tried to enter Canada where she was supposed to speak on Parliament Hill. It`s too bad Canada is following the U.S. lead on the road to fascism | |

Posted: 10/25/2007 2:17:38 PM | OTTAWA - An American peace activist has been refused entry to Canada for the second time because of misdemeanour convictions related to peaceful anti-war protest.
Sounds to me like she has some legal trouble of some kind.
Fascism? Wright...labeling anything you don't like, agree with, or understand isn't fascism? | |

Border guards on both sides have been turning people away over misdemeanor convictions for as long as I can recall.
Does anyone one remember when the US tried to prohibit the Canadian PM from coming to the US because he was "too left wing"? Or Tommy Chong? Or...
It's an age-old game that really has little to do with fascist tendencies on either side of the border. | |
