New Canadian anti-terror protocol: Shut down wireless

The Inquirer reports that mobile radio signals are being jammed at the site of the G8 summit in Alberta (to stop terrorists from using cellphones) and speculates that the Mounties will also block 2.4Ghz emissions. More alarming is the speculation that the Pope's visit to Toronto at the end of July will evoke the same countermeasure. Blocking cellular and WiFi in the largest city in the country for a whole week is just Not On.
