Even though good news has arrived in the particular case of Dale Askey, listeners should still write to your local Canadian diplomatic office against the libel laws having such a different standard in Canada and how the potential threat of a lawsuit while visiting Canada is a chilling matter. Just because the threat to Dale Askey is finished for now does not mean the mechanisms are gone to menace somebody else.
