Freedom Cruise Update: The 70

The first evidence emerges that Ezra Levant's "Freedom Cruise" is not an elaborate hoax.  Through the link given at bottom you can see the uncropped version of this shot, with Ezra himself and FrackNation co-director Magdalena Segieda visible to the right.

Lets analyze what we can see here a bit, shall we:

Minus Ezra and Magdalena,  I count 70 people in this, the ship's theater of the Holland America Line's ms Zuiderdam. My count includes special guests John Robson and Patrick Moore, visible towards the back.  Also, from the flaming hairdoo, I suspect that the dark, standing figure rear-center is Brian Lilley.  These people can be fairly described as Ezra's personal "base", his acolytes.

Note that the facial expressions are, generally speaking grim.  The audience has just seen FrackNation, and has been informed that the second half of the double-bill will be Atlas Shrugged, Part I.  A few of  them are probably praying for death right about now.

And speaking of proximity to death, note also that, generally speaking, this crowd is...how shall I put it...not too mobile. They won't be leading a conservative revolution any time soon, unless their walkers come with a jet-pack attached.
