This is all I can find as to the law in Canada pertaining to what is obscenity:

Obscenity

The Code?s definition of obscenity is: "any material that contains the undue exploitation of sex, or of sex and any one or more of the following subjects: crime, horror, cruelty and violence."

As far as 2257 goes...yes, you're right - he could lose his hosting, but my argument was that it seems to me it would be highly unlikely the justice department would expend money to go after a guy in Canada for 2257 violations when they don't apply to people who live outside of the United States.

That code makes ME want to move to Canada
