Human Rights Complaint Against Canadian Publisher Over Danish Cartoons Dismissed According to wire stories that started to pop into existence last Friday, the Alberta Human Rights Commission has dismissed a complaint from the Edmonton Council of Muslim Communities that charged the publisher of Western Standard, Ezra Levant with human rights violations for republishing the Fall 2005 Danish Muhammed caricatures. Although it was a shame the charges were brought to begin with -- Levant claims that a half-million dollars was spent by the commission investigating him -- the commission found that the cartoons were news, which I think is totally reasonable. Levant suggests that Muslim groups may appeal the decision.
