David Warren writes for the Ottawa Sun. His web site contains his essays that are always thoughtful and eloquent. To be savored. His Gomery Canada essay concludes:

The Iraqis could, finally, under the oppression of a monstrous tyranny, turn for help to the U.S. Marines. It is sad that they could not liberate themselves. It is sadder that, as tyranny begins to encroach upon the throat of our own Canada, we must turn for help to the U.S. bloggers brigade.

Written before the ban was lifted, there were many Canadian bloggers who risked more than any U.S. blogger to print the truth. It is a triumph of the human spirit that American and Canadians could work together to bring public the disgrace of the ban.
