Walmart wages war on free speech


Wal-Mart is trying to limit the free speech of a Canadian group that is critical of its anti-union activities. Wal-Mart has filed an injunction against WalmartWorkersCanada.ca to stop them from using the word “Wal-Mart” either, “alone or with other words…in a color scheme of blue, white and gold.” Wal-Mart also added that it wants to restrict the usage of circular shapes on the group’s website. If Wal-Mart succeeds in court, “an oval, circular or semi-circular design,” will be off limits to groups critical of Wal-Mart’s business practices!
