[Section 15] Renaming the WikiMinister

The Edmonton Journal, via Michael Geist, has suggested a new moniker for Minister Jim Prentice, who is apparently in charge of dismantling our Fair Use rights: The WikiMinister.

Employees under Prentice appear to have been favourably editing Prentice's wiki entry, of late, as previously reported by Michael Geist.

I have to respectfully disagree with this proposed moniker. Wikis are a good thing, relying considerably upon -- you guessed it -- copyright Fair Use. May I suggest a few better titles, suitable for a Fair Use-denying, wiki bending front bencher? How about

The DISEMBLERMINISTER
The DISINFOMINISTER

Any more ideas?
