Untitled[edit]

There was a Trial about this movie. It's probably worth to mention it in the article.

"In 1994, the House of Commons passed Bill C-42 in one day, amending over 100 aspects of the Criminal Code. Senators were concerned about provisions allowing publication bans. The Standing Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs held five hearings on the bill, giving publishers and criminal lawyers a chance to voice their concerns. While the Committee was reviewing the bill, the Supreme Court of Canada struck down a ban preventing the CBC from broadcasting The Boys of St. Vincent. The Court was protecting the right to freedom of expression guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Senate Committee struck out the offending clauses, the House of Commons agreed, and the bill became law."

Yes, but this text does not clearly explain the publication ban on the film, and when and how that happened. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:29, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
We should incorporate this into the main page, it was a significant controversy at that time for the public and the church. Grumpy Midget (talk) 04:02, 21 May 2014 (UTC)GrumpyMidget[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Boys-of-st-vincent.jpg[edit]

Image:Boys-of-st-vincent.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 18:05, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove External links in header[edit]

External links / Website / www.nfb.ca/collection/films/fiche/... that appears in the header, not only has an unneccesarily long url that distorts the article, it is already in External links at the end anyway. It seems to come from some metadata and isn't in the WP code. Can someone please remove it? DadaNeem (talk) 04:25, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
