The strange case of Malcolm Watson (a US citizen) a former high school teacher at Buffalo Seminary in Cheektowaga New York state who was convicted of sexually assualting a 15 year old student. Who instead of a prison term of 1 year will live with his wife (a Canadian citizen) and their three kids on 3 years probation. Who happen to live in St. Catharines Ontario. He was given probation because he had no priors and the relation ship was consentual, if both wrong and illegal. Anyway the Primier of Ontario, Dalton McGuinty, is fixing to have 2 kittens and a canary over the decision. And wants to work with Ottawa to boot Watson out. His comments to the CBC;

"It's obviously not the kind of precedent that we want to allow the Americans to establish, and it's not the kind of thing we're prepared to accept."
That there is typical rhetoric our elected official use when discussing US decisions they don't like.

The minister of immigration had this to say;

They really don't know what to think yet.


Also the Niagra regional police are investigating to see if Watson poses a threat to the community. If they determine he might be a threat then they could put him under house arrest or something. Which considering what he did would be a fate worse than 1 year in prison.

Pertinent CBC articles on the case.
General article on Watson's exile.
Primier McGuinty having a cow over it.
Canadian police investigate Watson's case.

If I seem facetious it's because this has pissing contest and cluster *sexual intercourse* written all over it.
