Offshore Alert, the Florida publication being sued in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by Vancouver restaurant owner Duane McGaw for defamation, has followed through with its promise to create a publicly viewable web page about Mr. McGaw. The page repeats many of the things that Mr. McGaw is suing over. They include his complaint that Offshore Alert called him the perpetrator of an investment fraud that totalled 98 million pounds.

The web page comes just weeks after Mr. McGaw, 44, filed a lawsuit against Offshore Alert. He claimed that the publication defamed him by calling him a Canadian con man, identifying him as one of those behind an investment fraud that ran under the name Argentum Group. He said that the accusation was false and malicious, and that it would seriously harm his business prospects. He also complained that he had received a letter from Offshore Alert in which the publication said it would create a web page dedicated to him if he sued.
