As a Canadian, please dont. Really. We are as full of shit as anyone else. That verdict is pure common sense, it would have been the same anywhere else that isnt North Korea. Wait a few months before saying Canada wont sign into the TPP. Our mining companies wreck havoc world-wide. We have a Canadian Patriot Act. We dont give a shit about environment. Our reputation of being a peaceful country is no longer deserved, we have adopted an aggressive and antagonist approach to international politics. We censor our scientists and have destroyed decades worth of scientific data. We walk hand in hand with the NSA on civilian data collection. We have less massive demonstrations, but have been called out by the UN on those we've had because of the way police handled protesters. Now is really not the time to pat ourselves on the back.

Many people who usually made these laws and decisions don't understand the internet. I am glad that more people in the political and legal world are becoming more educated about something that is so vital in our lives.
So long as they're merely showing you what's out there, sure. If they're actively trying to censor some things associated with liabilities that ought not apply to someone merely showing what's out there then they're taking responsibility for the content they publish.
Since Google does censor and fudge search results, they've accepted responsibility for the content they publish. The ruling got it wrong.

Good, that's how it should be. You can't expect a search engine to censor the internet.

I read recently that Google decided to replace search results for Kickass torrents with a site loaded with malware. While legit arguments can be made against torrent sites, what's the next target they'll just decide "doesn't belong"?
