What’s up with DefendMarriage.ca?

Written by Joel Johannesen on Friday June 03 2005 at 01:16 PM


Apparently some Liberal MPs allowed their web site domain registration to lapse without renewing it (stupid them).  So the point-man at DefendMarriage, Charles McVety, who was obviously waiting for just this thing to happen, registered the names himself under the DefendMarriage banner, and set up web sites which looked like the official web site of the MP at first glance. 

Click here for example: DonBoudria.ca.

This has been tried umpteen times before without success. 

It’s stupid.  They should abandon and apologize.  In the meantime, until they do, I’ll remove their free ad from our forum section.

Strike two for the Right, in as many weeks.

Here’s the WHOIS info:

Interestingly, this was all done in February of this year.  It’s not like this was a huge shock for Don Boudria, who is feigning as much outrage as possible of course.  The same thing was done to Ontario Progressive Conservative premier Mike Harris back in the day.
