#6  You will realize that Canadian law puts reasonable limits on the freedom of expression.
Depending on who is doing the reasoning...

#5  I would like to see her make a speech where every word was previously uttered by Canadian muslims and then dare Canada to prosecute. A Fitna for the Great White North.

#4  Heh, I very much DO hope Ann Coulter hears this vice-rectal's warning, and rest confident in her ability to stick it to him in a very memorable way.

They are already skating on thin ice, and it might break their back, especially if she were to very carefully phrase her speech to break a bunch of their rules, without sounding like it.

One possibility is to phrase everything as "the Canadian Human Rights commissions have warned me not to tell you that muslims are..." so that she can STILL get her point across while claiming that she was only talking about the commissions, not Muslims.

#3  I think it would be hilarious for the Canadian "Human Rights" kangaroo courts commission to charge Ann Coulter with a crime. They are already skating on thin ice, and it might break their back, especially if she were to very carefully phrase her speech to break a bunch of their rules, without sounding like it.

And while they were trying to disabuse her, she could continue to savage them in her column, and do her level best to create an international incident out of it.

I would, however, like to inform you, or perhaps remind you, that our domestic laws, both provincial and federal, delineate freedom of expression (or “free speech”) in a manner that is somewhat different than the approach taken in the United States. I therefore encourage you to educate yourself, if need be, as to what is acceptable in Canada and to do so before your planned visit here. You will realize that Canadian law puts reasonable limits on the freedom of expression.

#1  Tell Vice-recteur aux études Houle to piss off and get someone else to speak. They don't deserve the likes of Coulter. Let the dead bury the dead!
