Shahid Mahmood, Air Canada Settle

It's one of those news items that was around just as comics blogs of all shapes and sizes began to proliferate on the Internet in a way where stories would flash across several sites at once: editorial cartoonist Shahid Mahmood's quest for justice after being denied travel on Air Canada for reasons they couldn't explain. Because of the settlement, we may never know if it was a case of mistaken identity, some sort of horrible post-9/11 profiling gone wrong, or even outright concern for the content of his cartoons. Still, if after this many years Mahmood is satisfied, perhaps we should be as well.
