Not one complaint that I know of to any library about Shakespeare.

DISSOLVE CRTC!!

We, the undersigned, believe that the CRTC has become a burden on the Canadian public and are failing to perform their duties in the interest of the Canadian public and that of a fair and unbiased telecom policy.

Yes, sad but true.

People who live on feelings, rather than principle, scare me more than Hitler.

Interesting that they take a blind eye or ear over the Who Song "Who are you?" with the line "who the fuck are you?" I hear that on Rock 101 all the time. They used to beep out the f word but in recent memory just let it play.

Modern society will tolerate the f word now on the air waves but one gay person in NFLD can have over 30 million people in Canada never hear the Dire Straits song Money for Nothing played ever again without a $10K fine

Very good point on the CL censorship a la CL from the USA and Harper following suit IMHO.

I do not think the CL website joined the US band wagon voluntarily.
