has announced he will not participate in the Cultural Olympiad accompanying the 2010 Games because of rules he claims muzzle artists.
Cran is referring to the contract that artists must sign before participating in the cultural celebrations commissioned by VANOC, the 2010 Olympic organizing committee.
The contract includes this clause: "The artist shall at all times refrain from making any negative or derogatory remarks respecting VANOC, the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Olympic movement generally, Bell and/or other sponsors associated with VANOC."
