Dr. Weevil: Helping Mark Steyn

The good Doctor proposes a new flag for the totalitarian Canada of the near future.

Not being a lawyer (as far as I know) he has the right idea:

“It seems to me that the best way to make it fail ‘miserably and with embarrassment’ would be widespread ridicule by masses of ordinary people. Why not start an umbrella organization dedicated to freeing Steyn from oppression and call it the Mark-e-Steyn Liberation Organization? (…) If dozens or hundreds of demonstrators showed up to support him carrying signs with these names on them, the press would have to cover them.

“The most obvious uniform for demonstrations would be the one article of clothing popular in both Canada and Palestine: the black woolen ski mask. However, that could be seen as both cowardly and threatening, so I recommend a flannel keffiyah in a nice lumberjack plaid pattern.

(…)

“Sympathizers for Mark-e-Steynian rights could point out that Mark-e-Steyn was born in Canada, and later settlers have no moral right to dispossess him. Other slogans would practically write themselves. Perhaps the most obvious is ‘Insult those who behead for Islam’.”
