I hope someone is trying to bring this movie to Canada for release. It's been released in the US since April 16th. The lessons of government tyranny never get old, and Atlas Shrugged is a great reminder of how important the protection of individual freedoms are.
Author Ayn Rand was a libertarian and philosopher who knew all too well the dangers of statism and tyranny. However, in my opinion she glorifies selfishness and greed to some extent. Nevertheless, her illustration of the importance of the sovereignty of individuals is timeless.
Atlas Shrugged is a must read for conservatives, libertarians, classical liberals, fans of Hayek, and pretty much everyone else.

According to an email I received, there is a plan for the international release of Atlas Shrugged in June or July.
Paul McKeever of the Freedom Party is also attempting to rent the film for a private screening even sooner in Toronto, if at all possible.
Worst case scenario: DVD or Netflix download
Perhaps the worst book ever written, hands down.
