The award citation reads as follows:
For their SLAPP suit against Mordecai Briemberg, with whose opinions they disagree. For pressing Mordecai to �name names� while they press on with their agenda to suppress the truth. For suing Mordecai for alleged participation in the production of a farcical parody of a daily newspaper while they participate in a daily farce producing a parody of a newspaper. For forgetting that freedom of speech is a right for everyone, and for showing a sense of humour about as deep as their compassion for the fate of Canadian journalism."
