   This union official-- Victoria Wojciechowska-- isn't even a Canadidian
   citizen. She's a Polish national.

How did you determine that? That isn't in the article. While the name
is almost certainly Polish she could be third or fourth generation
Canadian for all I know.

What the flying fuck does that mean?  That name wasn't in the article.
Where did you get the motherfucking name from?

   In any rational society, a foreign national making public threats of
   violence in the media against the citizenry would be instantly
   deported.

I agree that the threat should definitely be subject to legal
consequences for the person uttering them. I wouldn't be adverse to a
deportation either if she really is a Polish citizen.

I was rather appalled at the open threat of violence against the
professor made in a public place - the newspaper - and certainly hope
the police don't let that go by. I'd also like to see the professor get
a protection order (Canadian equivalent of a restraining order) against
the threatener, although I suppose the union has additional goons to
break legs if it wants.
