Portrait of a failing state: Canadian government's worst moments of 2013

With regards to the Book Burning claim. Mr. Doctorow posted a story two days ago alleging that Harper burned the original HMS Challenger logs in a fire, I pointed out the fact that those ORIGINAL logs are actually housed at the British National History Museum. The post was then updated to state…

A COPY of the logs survived overseas.

I again pointed out that the ORIGINALS are housed overseas and that there are in fact hundreds of copies throughout the world. I was then banned from posting on that thread.

Is it common practice on Boing Boing to ban and muzzle posters from speaking the truth? Seems rather puzzling for a website that routinely condemns such muzzling to actually be doing that same thing.
