#1 Michelle Malkin has some info on the Steyn case. Apparently, once a human rights case is taken, the defendent is already deemed guilty, and all the bureaucrats want is: a groveling apology. Steyn is expected to deny that Muslims won`t assimilate to the West, and seek to takeover same. Duh, I believe that; DON`T SHOOT ME!

#2 Stalin and Vishinsky would have loved Canada:

"BUKHARIN: This is not my defence, it is my self-accusation. I have not said a single word in my defence. If my program-stand were to be formulated practically, it would be, in the economic sphere: state capitalism. the prosperous muzhik individual, the curtailment of the collective farms, foreign concessions, surrender of the monopoly of foreign trade, and, as a result: the restoration of capitalism in the country." (March 5, 1938; Military Collegium of the Supreme Court of the USSR)

#3 It will take a martyr to end this. That is, when they order the persecution of someone, they refuse the punishment.

Let the fines accumulate, and stay in prison as a "political prisoner". Continue to say what they have been forbidden to say, if necessary by confederates outside of Canada.

If possible, have your confederates hire computer hackers, to break into public Internet sites to remind the public of the political prisoner, and what he is imprisoned for.

Have them take your case before international human right tribunals, file lawsuits against the government of Canada. Request diplomatic letters of protest from the Vatican.

If any of the human rights panel leaves the country, arrange their arrest for criminal or civil offenses.

Keep fighting.

#5 As long as Mr. Steyn remains in exile from Canada, there really isn't anything they can do to him, except punish his publishers. His main publisher is fighting this thing, and last I heard wasn't losing.

#6 I don't know... I wouldn't put it past the State Department to extradite him (or advocate his extradition) - if only to shut him up.
