for refusing to tell the state about his love life? See my
article to be

if
the
tyrant
allows it, of course.
March
3, 2008 Nearly eight years ago, I made some forcasts
for the new Canadian firearms control, in a piece entitled "Three
Scenarios for
a
So-called
Law".
It is still a bit too soon to know which one will effectively
materialize, but the reader may like to check that the scenarios are still very
actual.
February
3, 2008 On December 27, I appealed the state's decision
to refuse to renew "my" gun licence (as we say, "my cancer")
and to revoke the
registration certificates of my guns. The appeal
motion (available in a pdf file)
is
only
in French as it was presented in a Québec court (although it challenges
the federal gun controls). I hope to find the time to translate it one of these
days. A court date has been fixed to March 28.
Read the whole strory about how refusing
to answer the cops' questions about your love life allows them to seize your
guns or makes
you
liable
to
10
years
in jail.
December
10, 2007 Today, Conrad Black was condemned
to
6½
years
in jail. Read my columns on this case over the years: when the
inquisition
began in
2004 (in the Western
Standard),
after Conrad
was
indicted (in the Western Standard), and
when
the
jury
verdict
was
rendered in
July
2007 (in the Ottawa Citizen). The picture above (click on it to get
a larger one) was taken at George Jonas's birthday party, in Toronto, on June
