      They're trying to start a boycott of film-making here but so far only a couple of small independent studios have agreed to join it.

        It is showing locally. There was attempt to stage a protest, but only 3 people showed up to protest, and they.... um... were a really bad caricature of the loony left. I'll see if I can find pictures.

        (or maybe a good caricature of the really bad loony left?)

          Looks like Canuckistanis won't likely be able to see Unplanned since the major film distributors in that country have made it clear that they won't carry it apparently because of its pro-life content. According to Chuck Konzelman, the writer and producer of Unplanned, Canuckistani law requires films to be distributed in order to be shown locally and that "films cannot be granted an official rating if there’s no distributor attached either. Thus Unplanned will not be playing in Canada."

            So much for free speech.

              Does Canada have official free speech?
              If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

                They have a "reasonable exception" clause that allows them to pass laws "that limit free expression so long as the limits are reasonable and can be justified in a free and democratic society".

                So, no, not really.

                  If Canada is signatory to the UN declaration of human rights, the right would technically exist. Though 'tis true that UN declaration does seem to have no more value than the paper it's written on (and the copy I have is a PDF)

                    IIRC they added exceptions that make it useless.

                      Canada sucks under Trudeau. None of this crap was in place when Stephen Harper was PM.

                        Here is a link to Canada's own government website addressing the "reasonable limits" to which I referred.

                          This seems to be less the government and more the fact none of the distributors want to touch it, though.

                            It seems a joint effort -- Canada's law requires distribution in order for the film to be shown (a limitation) and the major distributors have to be aware of that. Like I said, so much for free speech.

                                That would obviously be different than showing in theaters, yes?
