Publisher Elizabeth Margaris said that Mark Tushingham, whose day job is as an Environment Canada scientist, was ordered not to appear at the National Press Club to give a speech discussing his science fiction story about global warming in the not-too-distant future.

"So I guess we're being stifled. This is incredible, I've never heard of such a thing," she said.

Greg Weston from the Ottawa Sun said that he is getting calls from MPs saying they are not happy and James Travers said when you start disiplining bureaucrats that's when the "brown envelopes" start arriving.
I think the guy is going to implode frankly.
