Canadian stand up comic charged with not being funny

July 2, 2008 By admin

Have I mentioned my legal defence fund recently (cough)…?

Ezra Levant comments:

As I’ve mentioned before, it will be fascinating to hear the government’s rules about which jokes are funny, and which aren’t. For example: if a rude joke is funny, does that make it legal? If a heckler is illegally rude, can the comedian be illegally rude back? Will the government send out joke-testers to night clubs, with big red stop signs? Or giant hooks? There’s so much we’re going to learn from the humourless prudes who preside over the BCHRT.
