When this day comes, they have only themsel ves to blame. I am glad that this idiot hatemonger from England has been refused entry.
As far as Olivia Chow is concerened we know at what corner she is standing.

Don't try to derail the main issue, which is the Middle East Conflict, by changing the focus to George Galloway. He is just a messanger. The message should be debatet, not the messanger.

I suggest you focus on International Law and what it says in relation to continuous, criminal policies and actions of the terrorist, apartheid-style state of Israel. Stealing, killing, and lying will not pay – the whole civilized world can see it and is not buying the BS propaganda and Israel's hypocrisy anymore.

The only reason the taxpayer would cover his security is if he were at a government invitation. Instead it would be up to his sponsors here to cover his security. Did the Canadian government pay for the Hussein supporting (though the 80s) and war criminal George W. Bush to come to Calgary?

If you support Bush being here you should support Galloway. At least by banning Galloway you gave him SO much more of a voice than if he'd been ignored entirely by the media.

The root cause of much of this is economic deprivation, a system that fails to empower women, and right wing fundamentalism on ALL sides. Building walls and gagging people serves no one and nothing.

1luvRubyDhalla: "It's a dangerous precedent barring people for simply having an alternative view on foreign policy."

EXCUSE ME? Can you read? Can you process what you read? Or, do you only read what you want to read?

George Galloway is NOT being barred from Canada "for simply having an alternative view on foreign policy."

He has raised funds for both Hamas and Hezbollah, both terrorist organizations which have been outlawed in Canada. Outlawed. Understand? What is the point in groups being outlawed if they can continue to have funds for their nefarious objectives raised in Canada and are allowed to have activists like Galloway aid and abet their terrorist agendas on Canadian soil? Why should Canadians have to pay police to monitor whether or not Galloway breaks our laws or not?

It's about time that law and order in Canada prevail. It seems that the only "rights" being defended these days are those of ne'er do wells like Galloway's and groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, who push their terrorist agendas. This is NOT a free speech issue. George Galloway is a Brit who has absolutely no right to either enter Canada or speak his mind here. He has been denied entry into our country because he has supported and raised funds for outlawed terrorist organizations.

Saying that the CPC government won't allow him into Canada because they have "an alternative view on foreign policy" is patently false, as is the charge that he's not welcome because he disagrees with the war in Afghanistan. These are straw men continually constructed by our media so they can be knocked down. He's not being allowed to speak in Canada because he is considered a security risk, and I am grateful that my government is taking Canadians' safety and security seriously. I pay taxes here. George Galloway doesn't.

I suggest you educate yourself about Mr. Galloways actions. They speak louder than words.

I appears to me that you are just as dumb as Ruby. She repeated verbatim everything that Chretien said.
We are talking about fundraising for Hamas not just speaking.

Galloway is a great man The allegations against him are false, any one who does not support the terrorism and crimes of Israel receives this kind of treatment by certain groups. He was able to defend himself in American congress with courage. Those who are afraid of him are afraid of truth and they can not suppress the truth. It is undemocratic to deny entry to someone who did not have any problem entering US . I thought that US officials are reasonable and democratic enough not to deny him entry . It is just a vocal minority of certain ethnic and religious groups that protest his truth .I want to give message to Mr. Galloway that it is not the majority of Canadians who are responsible for insulting him and the govt does not represent the majority in this case.
