Also, just for your own information (should it come up in trivia), Canada's form of government is actually a constitutional monarchy.
Read... you are confusing TWO things... I HAVE NOT STATED THAT THESE ACTIONS ARE NOT CENSORSHIP... clear... I have stated that the action is NOT Government controlled but JUDICIAL... the Judiciary acts in line with the laws of the land (which are enacted by the actual elected government) but it can independently modify them by interpretation and establishing precedent... Oh and you've also made my point about Judiciary and Government being separate as you actually state it above...
