These nice, tolerant people managed to shut down Ann Coulter speech at University of Ottawa where some 2000 protesters surrounded a building with rocks and sticks and pulled a fire alarm. Then the cops moved in to shut it down. There were blogs calling for Coulter to be hurt. And the MPs were banned from going, Coulter denounced by an MP in the Parliament.
?It?s always the bush league schools,? Coulter contends
Let's see, the definition of "tolerance" is to abridges someone else's freedom of speech through violence? Over there? Land of the .... free?

“Since I’ve arrived in Canada, I’ve been denounced on the floor of Parliament — which, by the way, is on my bucket list — my posters have been banned, I’ve been accused of committing a crime in a speech that I have not yet given, I was banned by the student council, so welcome to Canada!”
The “accusation” of which Coulter speaks is a reference to an e-mail she received from University of Ottawa vice-president and provost Francois Houle on Friday, warning her that freedom of speech is defined differently in Canada than in the U.S. and that she should take care not to step over the line.
Coulter said that letter set the tone for and encouraged the protesters. She said it’s well known on the campus speaking circuit that conservatives need to travel with security staff, as she did.
“I’m pretty sure little Francois A-Houle does not need to travel with a bodyguard,” she said. “I would like to know when this sort of violence, this sort of protest, has been inflicted upon a Muslim — who appear to be, from what I’ve read of the human rights complaints, the only protected group in Canada. I think I’ll give my speech tomorrow night in a burka. That will protect me.”

Chuck Todd (chucktodd) on TwitterWhile lack of Obama-Netanyahu photo-op is a bit of a snub, worth remembering that this meeting ONLY happening because POTUS not in Indonesia.
