ICYMI--Michael Mann To Be Climate Cornholed With His Hockey Stick

As if it weren't bad enough that Steve McIntyre has taken apart his formal pleading in his "defamation" case against Mark Steyn and found it filled with lies about how his work was scientifically exonerated by a host of unimpeachable sources, Mann has a much larger problem--and it's all his doing.
You see, before he was stupid enough to sue Steyn, Mann sued Dr. Timothy Ball...in Canada where he hoped the Orwellian speech police tribunal (which Steyn dismantled in another lawsuit) would find that Ball's comments on Mann faking his Hockey Stick data were libelous.
Operating on the premise that the truth is a defense against libel, and with clarity of thought foreign to most American legislators, the Canadian court ordered Mann to produce his metadata--you know, the same metadata he and UVA spent millions to keep hidden from Ken Cuccinelli--Mann refused, repeatedly.
Last week, the court ruled him in default--meaning Ball wins. It also means Ball can call him a lying, junk-science charlatan because he has the backing of a court ruling.
Oh yeah, one more thing--it means Ball can counter sue for damages. He hasn't yet, but Steyn has--for $10 million. Mwuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Well, Ball would get the first bite--his suit is older--and not just at Mann, but also at his flu$h backer$, including David $uzuki. Bwuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
It doesn't get much better than that.

UPDATE: From Mikey's Facebook page, where his lawyer says Sullivan is full of shit.
