Speaker 1: That person I used to be known as Bradley Manning,
Speaker 1: now known as Chelsea Manning, ran into trouble at the
Speaker 1: Canadian border. The trouble did not come from our border, guys,

Speaker 1: get into Quebec on the way to Montreal in Vancouver,
Speaker 1: the former US soldier was stopped and detained overnight, then
Speaker 1: given a report stating this traveler was inadmissible to Canada
Speaker 1: due to a track record of serious criminality. The reports
Speaker 1: said that the crimes Manning had been convicted of under
Speaker 1: the US Espionage Act would equate to an indictable offense,
Speaker 1: namely treason, if they had been committed in Canada. So
Speaker 1: Canada told Bradley Slash Chelsea Manning, no thanks, stay home,
Speaker 1: don't pass go, we don't need your tourism dollars. Well,
Speaker 1: this Manning thing was outraged and plans to get a
Speaker 1: Canadian lawyer to fight Canada's refusal in a Canadian tribunal.
Speaker 1: You never know what's going to happen in court, but
Speaker 1: we do know this. The Canadian deans apparently think border
Speaker 1: security seriously. Being convicted of a crime like treason may
Speaker 1: earn you a presidential pardon from Obama here in America,
Speaker 1: but it doesn't get you and get out of jail
Speaker 1: free card everywhere else. And one more thing as politically
Speaker 1: liberal as Cannida is perceived to be. It turns out
Speaker 1: they do enforce their travel bands, don't they. They're serious
Speaker 1: up there,
