Who died and made Elmasry the Muslim Pope?

On the wall outside the courtroom is a sign indicating the name of the case being heard inside. It doesn't say Mohammed Elmasry vs. Maclean's. It doesn't even say Khurrum Awan, standing in for Elmasry, vs. Maclean's.

It says Elmasry, on behalf of Muslims in British Columbia, vs. Maclean's.

Oh, really?

That's about as credible as Bernie Farber, Elmasry's Jewish analog, claiming to speak for all Jews.

I met a young Muslim philosophy student -- who took me out to lunch for sushi! -- who pointed said that he disagrees with censorship, and that Elmasry certainly does not speak for him.
