Steven Hawking Considering Move To Canada

thepacketmaster learned of "...the possibility of Steven Hawking moving to Waterloo in Canada: 'A report out of Britain suggests Stephen Hawking is considering an invitation to come work at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics....But he's also being encouraged to move to Ontario by his University of Cambridge colleague Neil Turok, the mathematical physicist who will take over as Perimeter's executive director on Oct. 1. Perimeter confirmed last night that it has made a standing offer to Hawking...Turok is leaving Cambridge after failing to persuade university authorities, research councils and sponsors to spend $40 million...By comparison, Waterloo's Perimeter Institute has about $600 million in funding...The addition of Hawking to Perimeter's staff of top physicists would be a major coup for the research institute, founded in 1999 by Mike Lazaridis, founder and co-CEO of Research In Motion, which makes the BlackBerry.'"

genocide? currently, no.
Later, maybe but you'd have to have oil or something.
All you guys need now is Marshall law and you have a fascist state.
Think about it:
-Media is controlled
-they have an internal surveillance system
-Corps can do anything (FISA, DMCA, laws for sale)
-You have a gulag (GuantÃnamo)
-You have Rampant Cronyism and Corruption

They sound too dumb to be yanks. Maybe they were Canadians who accidentally moved too far South?
