There is a fellow - a member of the science fiction community - who some
of you might want to read about. He's in Canada right now, fighting
extradition back to the US for offending a certain offshoot religious
movement that (ironically) also arose out of sci fi.

If you are in Canada and want to help, send me email for how to do it.
Anyplace else, a email of a few lines asking my local Member of Parliament
to help keep me in Canada would be highly appreciated. My MP is Lloyd St
Amand, his email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] And please send me a blind cc. If
you want to spread this to other places/list, please do.
Bit of an update.
What's needed are character references--so if a few lines won't do,
then longer is fine. At this point the MP's staff has already sent
out his letter to the Minister with only a couple of good strong
letters, but they're keeping a file of everything else they get, and
they're disregarding email that says "Henson got a raw deal. Let him
stay in Canada." The issue is what kind of citizen will I make in
Canada, not what happened in the States, no matter how gross.
Some of you know me in real life and many by my writing and reputation.
How you know me and how long is worth mentioning.
Much thanks,
Keith Henson
