Canada and Denmark using Google as Battleground

TedRiot writes "Canada and Denmark are fighting over Hans Island using Google as battleground. A quick search of 'hans island' revealed a paid advertisement with the banner headline: 'Hans Island is Greenland. Greenland natives have used the island for centuries.' The ad was linked to the Danish government's foreign affairs web page with the letter condemning Graham's visit. Toronto resident Rick Broadhead placed a Google ad and said the Canadian government needs to get with the times." Reuters has coverage as well.

    As it should be. Same with anti-Muslim, anti-Jew, and anti-everything else that is irrational, unscientific, and downright stupid.

    Hope that helps.
