Moore gets subpoenaed
UPI reports that Michael Moore has received a subpoena over the trip to Cuba in his movie Sicko.
It is illegal for Americans to travel to Cuba.
Perhaps Moore has found his next movie?

In 2006, Wayne Crookes, a major creditor of the Green Party of Canada who significantly financed the GPC's launch into mainstream politics, sued OpenPolitics.ca for libel. Although the trial has been put off at Crookes' request, legal bills remain.
By 2007 Crookes also had sued numerous other parties, including myself, Micheal Geist, P2PNet, PBWiki (now PBWorks), Wikipedia and Google. And, yes, Crookes is the person who is trying to argue that just having a hyperlink which is in some way pointing to material he claims to be libelous counts as disseminating libel, and thus is libelous in of itself. Other arguments in his claims make political wikis and blogs next to impossible to run in Canada -- and difficult elsewhere -- due to liability issues.
Although the content complained over is no worse than what we all read everyday in the blogosphere, Canada's libel laws heavily favour the plaintiff, often leaving even innocent defendants with considerable costs to bear.

Moore may have killed more than one bird with his stone Sicko. Highlighting the absurdity of a "free" country banning travel to another country next door.
GEE, I'm surprised HARPER hasn't provided a HomeLand Security office at Pearson so they can charge all those GRINGOS passing through YYZ to GET TO CUBA on vacation...
as it IS, many Americans are complaining they can't SEE the film, Sicko, because its not being locally distributed.
