Mr. Vigna invents a tort
I mean, seriously, look at why Vigna says he’s going to sue me. On page three of his threat, he’s underlined what he says makes him really mad at me. He complains that I made fun of his courtroom antics, when he told a tribunal chairman that the whole hearing had to stop because Vigna didn’t “feel in a serene state of mind”. I compared Vigna’s lame series of excuses – a discussion that went on for twenty pages of court transcripts! – to a student who pulled the fire alarm to get out of writing an exam.You’d think that Vigna would want to forget about that awful, awful day when he turned the tribunal hearing into his own therapy session. But not Vigna – he says he’s going to sue me for calling his drama audition a “farce”. ezra levant
Ezra Levant made fun of Giacomo Vigna one of the CHRC’s lawyers in the Warman v. Lemire matter. Ezra was mean enough to quote transcript in which Vigna beclowned himself.
Ezra is a big meanie!
Mr. Vigna is threatening Ezra with a libel action but, in practice, Mr. Vigna is really threatening to ask the Court to invent the tort of “meanness”.
Ezra needs money to fight and when my Paypal account replenishes I will send him some. But his Statement of Defence could pretty much consist of “And you, Mr. Vigna, are a poopyhead.” and he would still win in a walk.
I wonder what the French is for “poopyhead”. Tete au Merde?
Update: Mark Steyn is moved to song:
I enjoyed it as a bad daytime soap, but I think for his next courtroom acting gig Mr Vigna should try a musical:I feel dizzy
Oh, so dizzy
I feel dizzy, not fizzy and gay
In a tizzy

Have they no sense of decency? At long last, have they left no sense of decency?

Go ahead, laugh. He’ll sue you next. And if he doesn’t, Warman Kinsella will.
Bigot!
