Something to think about- FYI, - and it is about time something is done about it! Follower

"Farallon Mining, on behalf of all the Plaintiffs, filed a lawsuit against Mr. Butler on October 5th, 2004 for posting various defamatory statements on the website at www.stockhouse.com. On March 30th, 2010, the Honourable Madam Justice Wedge of the Supreme Court of British Columbia, awarded each of the Plaintiffs general and punitive damages, while Mr. Thiessen was also awarded aggravated damages. The total damages awarded against Mr. Butler are $425,000. Madam Justice Wedge also awarded costs against Mr. Butler, as well as ordering a permanent injunction against him, restraining him from publishing any further defamatory statements against the Plaintiffs. The Plaintiffs intend to vigorously pursue enforcement of the Order against Mr. Butler to the full extent permitted under the law."
