International incident escalates to Google war
A Row between Canada and Denmark over who owns a lump of icy rock in the Artic has been shifted onto Google.
According to Reuters a Canadian man is dueling an unknown Dane over who really owns the disputed lump of rock in a war of Google ads.
The pair have placed online ads about which country controls the 1.3 square km (half a square mile) Hans Island, located between Canada's Ellesmere Island and Greenland, which belongs to Denmark.
Toronto author Rick Broadhead said he bought the ads on Google after spotting a Danish ad that said "Does Hans sound Canadian? Danish name, Danish island."
The ad, which sent the Canadian out clubbing, linked to the Danish foreign ministry's Web site and a copy of a protest letter Copenhagen sent Ottawa after Canada's defence minister visited the island. Broadhead's ad show a large Canadian Maple Leaf flag, and it now carries the message: "Hans Island is Canadian."
Apparently the matter is getting a lot of attention in Canada at the moment because it is summer silly season and there is little news
