(Lila: My invitation was withdrawn by the seminar hosts from fear that Canadian authorities/other seminar participants might object to opinions I’ve expressed on Israel-Palestine on my blog (I don’t believe they would have). My apologies to any readers who signed up anticipating my speaking there, but now you’ll get more time with Walter Block, Paul Geddes, and Larry Reed. Have fun!)
