Hmm. I smell a setup. Was she blogging about it before the echoes of the announcement died down?

When she was in London Ontario days before she told a Muslim student he should have taken his camel to the event instead of his magic carpet.

the canadians are a bit more thoughtful, apparently, than their american counterparts. they don't countenance the spread of fascism so easily.

some of their leaders might need a clue, but it looks like ALL of our leaders need a bunch of clues.

“There was a risk there could be physical violence,” said Canadian conservative activist Ezra Levant, who was scheduled to introduce Ms. Coulter.

everyone knows that the threats copme from the right and they always have come from the right.

The CBC anchor is Jeanne Tripplehorn and the correspondent is Annie C. herself.

...Canadians must not have Fox news.

This ugly hate profiteering bitch will just play victim/and her liberal conspiracy card in order to sell her shitty senseless toilet paper(books).

please crawl back to your abyss.

on another thread but the optics for Coulter were very bad. Less than a hundred showed up to hear her speak and not all of those were supporters but several thousand protesters showed up. No threats against her were made and no acts of violence occurred. I want to ask Levant what he thinks of Coulter's comment that his university is bush league. Levant is a liar. He tried to make it appear as if the police forced the cancellation. In fact it was him.

This AP clip captures a bit more of the opposition rally itself.

(..but does a poor job of explaining the flying-carpet-camel riff!)

Protest Cancels Ann Coulter Speech in Ottawa

Excellent writeup of her appearance at the University of Western Ontario Monday. (Includes the flying-carpet-camel riff ..)

Ann Coulter brings heat in trip to Canada

...fascists are welcome only in the United States and Israel.

the low-information scrag get detained at the border, having her belongings tossed and laptops searched, long enough to delay her appearance .... ?

Nah, didn't think so ...

Those socialist Canadians sure look healthy and happy :-)

The magic carpet I rode in on is faster than the broomstick you rode in on bitch.

Guys, this is all propaganda. The speech wasn't canceled due to protesters, it was canceled due to the incompetence of the organizers, who couldn't control the crowd of their own supporters. They jumped on the "violent protesters" angle as an excuse. See http://www.cbc.ca/politics/insidepolitics/201...

Only is someplace other than the US is this, apparently, an issue.

Canadian journalist Vaughn Palmer said this morning on KUOW radio that the situation was restrained and she could have gone on to give her talk. This all plays into her persona of perpetual victimhood and gives her free publicity.

It's nice to see the traveling corporate fascist show get soundly rejected by other countries.

This "Dick Cheney with tits," came to a local business college a couple of years ago in our republican county. Thousands showed up and cheered for this hag as she rambled incoherently.

U.S.A.! We really are number one - in clueless bigot morons!

Canada keeps hate filled Christanics out like Holocaust deniers,. why didn't they keep that insane pile of Republican Christoshit in their country?

You stand up to their lying bullshit and they turn yellow, cower and run away so they can play their neurotic victim/martyr role.

cuz she will now use it in all her appearances, showing that the left is afraid of her words

better to let her speak, then during the q and a, hitting her on every ignorant thing she has said about canada over the past umpteen years

The University of Ottawa's provost warned her beforehand.

The private email, which was leaked to conservative news organizations, noted that Canada's Charter of Rights meant that "promoting hatred against any identifiable group would not only be considered inappropriate, but could in fact lead to criminal charges."

like laura ingraham, she has chosen not to marry or have children

so neither can pass down their putrid genes to another generation

see....there is a god

better informed.

Ann Coulter an "A" list pundit? More like an A-hole list pundit. Stuffs her bra allot too.

said that free speech is under attack or something of the sort.

Why?

Because people actually used that right to speak out against his side's hateful bitch of the week?

flatter Albertans by telling them that they are so different from the Ottawa lefties

Forcing her to cancel because you make threats is playing the same game as the teabaggers.

Fuck Ann Coulter.

Pardon my Canadian French or French Canadian or Frencanchadian or whatever.

Last March the Canadian government wouldn't let George Galloway across the border, claiming he was an extremist. He had to give his speech by remote video broadcast. So there is reason to wonder about free speech in this country.

And anyhow, it's likely Coulter was just as happy the thing got cancelled. I'll bet when this was arranged months ago she was planning to crow about Obama's *failed* health care initiative, but then it didn't turn out the way the Republicans hoped. Hah!

for the poor lost victim that was Ann Coulter.

This narrative is a lie spread by the right-wing. The crowd was peaceful and there were no threats. In fact, when George Bush came to Canada, the protesters were much much more boisterous with their demonstrations and yes, the war criminal still continued with his speech.

You can see the video of the protest at www.cbcnews.ca

Bravo to the protesters in Ottawa though!! There is no room for hate speech and bigotry in 21rst century Canada.

I'm Canadian and no Ann Coulter fan, but she should have spoke. There might have been some protest, yet nothing violent.

.

Show yourself. If our troups would have cut and run like you just did we never would have had the awesome victories that we experienced in both Viet Nam and Iraq. And you had the gall to suggest that the Canadians are cowards.

anne cut an ran?

Her speaking before a half full auditorium would make her look bad. Having her non-existent (since it doesn't apply outside the US) first amendment rights stomped on will ultimately sell more hateful books to hateful people in the US.
