Canada's public service is stuck in 'analog' and the world 'has moved

Canada's public service is stuck in 'analog' and the world 'has moved on': Former clerk

Janice Charette said the federal service ‘underestimated’ ramp-up after COVID-19

"The public service is still working in what I would describe as kind of analog ways and the world has moved on," former clerk of the Privy Council Janice Charette, told Rosemary Barton Live in an interview airing Sunday.

"You can make a dinner reservation, you can book a cruise, you can move money in and out of your bank account, transfer between the two of us — it's remarkable the things you can do in a digital world and the public service, and our service delivery infrastructure has not kept up with that."

It's a gap that Charette said was on display when the public service couldn't deliver services such as passports once COVID-19 restrictions were lifted. 

"In all humility, we know we have to do a better job there," she said.

Proud of initial pandemic response

Charette, who refers to her job as being "steward of one of the most important institutions in our democracy," retired Friday after nearly 40 years in the service, including stints as clerk for prime ministers Stephen Harper and Justin Trudeau.

Reflecting on her tenure, Charette said she's proud of the way the public service jumped into action during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, spending billions to support people and businesses. 

"One of the things I completely believe about public service is that in a crisis we can be magnificent," she said.

"Decisions had to move quickly, benefits had to move quickly … and the challenge is, how do you maintain that going forward?"

As the lockdowns lifted, services lagged and frustrations grew.

The government was put on the defensive last year when passport offices were overwhelmed by a surge of applications.

The immigration department was also caught on its back foot by demand. At one point last year more than 2.4 million applications were stuck waiting for processing. 

"I think in the public service maybe we underestimated how quickly people were going to want to return to their lives, how quickly they were gonna want to travel and have their passports, and how quickly we were gonna start the immigration system, how much people were going to want to move," Charette said. 

"This was not the best of times for the public service because we underestimated that ramp-up."

Charette defends outside contracts 

Another issue for her successor, John Hannaford, will be how to handle procuring outside consultations.

The auditor general is reviewing the millions of dollars worth of contracts the federal government awarded to management consulting firm McKinsey & Company following news reports. 

Charette said she believes there are times when it makes sense to bring in outside experts.

"The public service is not and never should be seen as a source of all knowledge," she said.

"There are many cases where, whether it's something which is a temporary need or a specialized kind of need, that we don't want to build it inside the public service. It's actually more economical and more efficient and maybe better for the public that we actually go out and get external expertise."

Besides being the head of the public service, the clerk acts as the deputy minister to the prime minister and secretary to the cabinet.

"I have had the honour of sitting in the cabinet room for some of the most fascinating conversations about issues that really matter to Canadians," Charette told Barton.

That would have included the tense discussions in February 2022 around whether or not the government should invoke the Emergencies Act. 

Didn't want to be 'intimidated' by Emergencies Act decision 

As clerk, Charette recommended the government use the never-before-used law to clear anti-public health measure protests that had gridlocked downtown Ottawa for nearly a month.

That decision thrust her into the spotlight when she was later called to testify at the Public Order Emergency Commission last fall and defended her rationale. 

While Commissioner Paul Rouleau ultimately ruled that the federal government met the threshold needed to invoke the Emergencies Act, the government's decision remains polarizing for many across the country.

Duration 1:11
Janice Charette told the Emergencies Act inquiry that there is a broader definition of a threat of violence than the one identified by CSIS, and it was this broader definition that led to her recommending the PM invoke the Emergencies Act.

Charette said she couldn't let the unprecedented use of the act scare her and other decision-makers away from using it if it was needed. 

"I remember very much thinking we have never used this piece of legislation, so implicit in that is you're going to make history, but you also don't want to be intimidated by that either," she said.

"The public service is known for being risk-averse. You don't want to bring a bias, 'Oh my gosh, it's such a big thing. Oh, maybe we shouldn't do it.' Is it the right instrument at the right time with all the right protections around it?"

Charette said many protesters had "totally legitimate questions."

"There's only so long you can kind of hold people back. Then there's like, OK, well, what about me? What about my interest in my family's interest?" she said.

"The concern for me was this other element that we saw creeping into it and it almost felt like there some taking advantage of what was a widespread protest, a widespread debate going on, by people who had a different point to make."

As Emergencies Act report tabled, key witnesses have moved on

Public Order Emergency Commission to release findings later today

hearings in Ottawa on Nov. 4, 2022. The commission will table its
final report in Parliament later today. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian
Press)

As the Public Order Emergency Commission (POEC) prepares to release
its highly anticipated report into last winter's convoy protests, many
of the witnesses from the City of Ottawa and the Ottawa Police Service
who testified last fall have either left or moved to new roles.

On Thursday, the commission announced it would make its final report
public later today after tabling it in Parliament.

The Canadian Press reported the commission had requested, and been
granted, an extension to the original Feb. 6 deadline for submitting
its final report to the government.

The deadline for tabling the report in Parliament — Feb. 20 — remained
intact, however. That meant the commission's findings and
recommendations had to be made public no later than Monday, the Family
Day statutory holiday in Ontario.

(The timeline set out by the Emergencies Act requires that the report
be submitted to Parliament and released to the public within 360 days
of the emergency declaration being revoked, which occurred on Feb. 23,
2022.)

re-election. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)
Mayor, councillors gone

The commission heard from 76 witnesses over six weeks of public
testimony, from Oct. 14 until the prime minister's appearance on Nov.
25. Of those, seven were either elected officials or senior
bureaucrats with the City of Ottawa, and five more were senior members
of the Ottawa Police Service (OPS).

None of the elected officials from the city who testified — former
mayor Jim Watson, former councillor and police services board chair
Diane Deans, and former councillors Mathieu Fleury and Catherine
McKenney — remains in office. Of those, only McKenney ran for
re-election last fall, but failed in their bid to become mayor.

Of the other city officials who testified, only Kim Ayotte, Ottawa's
general manager of emergency and protective services, remains in the
same job.

Former city manager Steve Kanellakos, who testified about his efforts
to broker a deal between police and the protesters, resigned amid
controversy on Nov. 28, just two days before the release of a damning
report on Ottawa's troubled LRT project.

Press)
All 5 OPS witnesses remain

All five senior members of the Ottawa Police Service who testified
before the commission last fall remain, though most have changed jobs.
(This doesn't include former chief Peter Sloly, who resigned during
the occupation of Ottawa by convoy protesters, and who had been out of
policing for more than eight months by the time he testified before
the commission in late October.)

Steve Bell, who was named interim chief after Sloly's resignation, and
who oversaw the eventual dispersal of the protest in Ottawa, is now a
deputy chief and chief administrative officer of the OPS. At the time
of the convoy's arrival in Ottawa, Bell was in charge of intelligence,
information and investigation for the force.

Patricia Ferguson, who testified to the deep "dysfunction" at the top
of the OPS, and said the force was left "floundering" when protesters
failed to leave the capital after the first weekend, remains acting
deputy chief.

Russell Lucas, an inspector with the police service's special events
section during the protests, is currently an acting superintendent,
according to an update provided by the OPS on Thursday.

Supt. Robert Bernier, an inspector within the force's communications
branch who was appointed event commander during the occupation, is
also listed by the OPS as an acting superintendent.

Supt. Robert Drummond, who was tasked with overseeing the police
liaison team that negotiated with protest leaders and the public order
unit that eventually helped end the occupation, also maintains that
rank. (Drummond was in an acting role at the time of his testimony
last fall.)

'Multiple points of failure'

In an email to CBC, Paul Champ, a lawyer who represented downtown
residents and businesses during the Emergencies Act inquiry, noted the
commission heard "extensive evidence of multiple points of failure" by
both government officials and police.

"Even though many of those responsible have left the stage, the POEC
report will memorialize those mistakes and serve as a guide for public
officials going forward. I would also like to see some apologies by
the police, the city and the province, but that's probably asking too
much," Champ wrote.

He said he also hopes to see the report provide some guidance "about
the oversight and direction the Ottawa Police Services Board can have
over the Ottawa Police Service."

Journalists covering the inquiry will be allowed to peruse an
embargoed version of the report starting at 10 a.m. ET. The embargo
will be lifted once the report is tabled in Parliament.

Commissioner Paul Rouleau will also read a prepared statement, which
will be streamed live on the commission's website, where the full
report will be made available to the public.

Bell Media asks regulator to remove its obligations to local TV news

Bell Media asks regulator to remove its obligations to local TV news

Company applies to CRTC to drop spending requirements, calling it 'regulatory relief'

BCE's media arm says it wants the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to amend "certain conditions of licence" regarding its local English- and French-language TV stations, CTV and Noovo.

Bell Media calls it "regulatory relief" to counter online competition and help offset losses racked up in recent years.

"Unfortunately, Bell Media has been losing tens of millions alone in the production and delivery of local news," it said in a summary of the application posted Friday and filed on June 14 — the same day BCE announced it's cutting 1,300 positions, shutting or selling nine radio stations and closing two foreign bureaus.

"In the four-year period between 2016 and 2019, [Bell Media's] average annual news operating loss was $28.4 million," the company said.

It said that number increased to $40 million last year because of internet advertising that has captured a "massive share" of revenue from Canadian businesses.

Last week's layoffs included a six per cent cut at Bell Media.

Fewer hours for local news 

The company wants the CRTC to waive requirements for the number of hours its TV stations must devote to local news each week.

Bell Media said the commission said in 2021 that the average number of hours Canadians spent watching traditional television services has decreased a total of 16.5 per cent since 2013.

"Over the last decade, the operating environment for traditional, private Canadian broadcasters has changed dramatically," the company said.

"Whereas in the past, Canadians looked to domestic services for information and entertainment, they can now access a virtually unlimited array of DMBUs [digital media broadcasting undertakings] such as Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple+, most of which are foreign‑owned and controlled."

Bell said the CRTC's implementation of the Online Streaming Act (Bill C-11) has the potential to provide relief to media companies through compensation from online streaming giants, but it cannot afford to wait for outcome of the regulator's consultations on the legislation.

Union vows to fight for programming

Unifor, one of Canada's largest unions in the media sector, said it strongly opposes the application to eliminate the regulatory requirements.

"We will do everything in our power to ensure that Bell Media continues to live up to its legislated obligations to fund and create local news and programming," Unifor national president Lana Payne said in a statement.

"If approved, Bell Media's outrageous and misguided scheme would deprive the Canadian public of vital local news and programming, while putting hundreds of highly trained and professional journalists out of work," Payne added. 

She said the union will be filing a formal response with the CRTC in the coming weeks.

Chretien - this did get rid party lines and upgraded phone line so dial up would work

Martin - Promised was there but too short lived as PM

Harper - Budget $200 million for rural internet getting 200,000 rural home internet

Trudeau - Did a bit with Starlink by subsidizing rural prices

Seems election promise that keeps coming up. 3 out 4 did something but I think Martin has valid excuse for not doing anything.

Oh dear, the ‘competition’ word. And they can’t wait for relief from the online streaming act. They had no problem accepting $122.9 million from the government for that much needed (wink wink) wage subsidy during COVID. They just want to try and squeak a few more bucks out before the new legislation kicks in, to get an extra boost.

First question: who watches 'traditional TV'? Cords have been cut everywhere and it's been years since I've seen an over-the-air antenna; even satellite dishes are becoming obsolete. Streaming means a) seeing what you want when you want to watch it and b) having the option to see news content that isn't bundled with a lot of other content, most of which is of no interest. "So it turns out news content media aren't paid a dime" - well that's the fake news that the traditional news sources want us to believe ... but it isn't true: there are plenty of news focused streaming channels that are monetized, by the good old fashioned method of advertising as well as subscriptions. Traditional news sources can and do do the same but now they want to double dip by combining advertising revenue with a consumption tax; somehow, they've even been able to claim privilege over the many other streaming news broadcasters and publishers. They even want content indexers (aka search engines), who index content at a cost but no cost to them, to pay them a fee. If indexers are now required to pay a surtax on content, they should legitimately be able to pass that charge on to the consumer: imagine if google were no longer a free service and/or YouTube was accessible by subscription only and/or Roku which is built into many video devices would now require a paid subscription ... only in Canada you say!?

I wonder when in the old days of TV guide as a magazine and a newspaper section those publications paid TV networks a fee for the privilege? Will Canadians then also now be charged for access to news content from public broadcasters such as TVO?

More Static Hits Bell Canada Deal

Now that an appeals court has quashed approval for the $51.8 billion leveraged buyout of Bell Canada, siding with angry bondholders in a ruling, what’s next for the troubled telecommunications giant?

While the unanticipated decision may not be the final ruling on the buyout, the largest leveraged deal in history, it puts its future in legal jeopardy.

The New York Times noted that there is some hope in the investment community that Telus, the dominant telephone company in Western Canada, might make another attempt to acquire Bell if the private equity bid failed.

Telus looked at Bell last year but did not bid, apparently because of Bell’s reluctance to provide access to its internal financial data.

A purchase by Telus might also raise serious competition questions, particularly given that the government is now seeking to lure more operators into the wireless phone business, which is now split between Telus, Bell and Rogers Communications.

In any case, Bell Canada shares are likely to be hit when the market opens Thursday morning. An analyst with the Royal Bank of Canada wrote in a research note that the stock is “likely to trade down significantly.”

The speculation comes after a five-judge panel of the Quebec Court of Appeal found that Canada’s largest telecommunications company “never attempted to justify the fairness and reasonableness of an arrangement that results in a significant adverse economic impact on the debenture holders while at the same time it accords a substantial premium to the shareholders.”

Because the buyout is structured under Canadian law as a “plan of arrangement” it requires court as well as shareholder approval. The new ruling sets aside court approval that was granted in early March.

“Everyone was telling us we didn’t stand a chance of winning this case,” John L. Finnigan, one of the lawyers for the bondholders, told The Times. “Now the deal has been killed. This plan of arrangement cannot go through.”

Within minutes of the release of the decision early Wednesday evening, Bell said that it would appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada and suggested that it would extend the current June 30 closing date for the deal.

“The judgment overturning the Quebec Superior Court decision rewrites Canadian law relating to the duty of Canadian boards of directors to maximize value for shareholders in the context of a change-of-control transaction, as well as to the entitlements of bondholders,” Martine Turcotte, the company’s chief legal officer, said in a statement.

Mr. Finnigan disagreed with that assessment.

“The ruling is absolutely consistent with earlier supreme court rulings,” he told Teh times.

In an e-mail message, Deborah Allan, a spokeswoman for the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan, which is leading the buyout group, said: “We’re reviewing the ruling and evaluating our options with respect to the bondholder claims. We remain committed to the transaction.”

Bell said that the closing date for the deal now depended on the supreme court’s willingness to hear the case and the timing of any hearing that could result.

The decision to take the company private disturbs bondholders because it will burden Bell with about 30 billion Canadian dollars in additional debt. That will most likely depress the price of current bonds because of concerns that a debt-laden Bell is a riskier investment.

In its decision, the appeal court noted that before agreeing to the buyout, Bell executives, including Michael J. Sabia, the president and chief executive, emphasized the company’s interest in maintaining a high credit rating.

Other recent developments have also raised questions about the deal’s viability. Last week a consortium of banks providing financing for the deal proposed substantial alterations to the terms of their loans to the purchasers, who also include Providence Equity Partners, Madison Dearborn Partners and Merrill Lynch Global Private Equity and the Toronto-Dominion bank, according to The Times.

The sweeping revisions sought by the banks, led by Citigroup, suggested to some investors and analysts that the banks were trying to escape the lending commitments, which they made last June, before the start of the current turmoil in credit markets.

The legal turmoil surrounding the case, if it continues for any extended period of time, might provide the bankers with at least an argument for walking away. Under the sale terms, Bell is required to resolve all regulatory issues and do its best to wind up litigation related to the purchase.

“I’ve probably got a lot of best friends I don’t know at Citigroup now,” Mr. Finnigan told The Times.

The widespread expectation among legal specialists in Canada had been that the appeal court would follow the trial judge’s lead and dismiss the bondholders’ complaint.

Shortly before the decision was released, Lionel David Smith, a professor specializing in commercial law at McGill University in Montreal, described the bondholders’ case as “an uphill battle.”

It is not clear if the supreme court will hear Bell’s appeal. Professor Smith told The Times that some of the bondholders’ case was based on a legal concept known as oppression that is relatively untested by the high court in Canada.

Oppression cases have usually involved disputes between owners or shareholders of relatively small companies or partnerships, he told The Times, and involved actions that, while legal, were outside of the partners’ or owners’ private understandings. The appeals court did not address the oppression arguments directly.

While Professor Smith said that it was quite possible that the supreme court would hear the case, that is not likely to happen before the deal’s deadline date.

Bell shares have been trading below the takeover price of 42.75 Canadian dollars.

School year wraps up with bitterness and uncertainty among teachers

Teachers still don't have collective agreement, feel pitted against parents in gender-identity debate

Gender-identity policy changes come into effect on July 1 and teachers still don't know if they'll be forced to say no to a child's request to informally use a different name and pronoun without parental consent.

They also don't know whether they'll face consequences if they do use a child's chosen pronoun, and they still don't have a collective agreement.

On top of that, some district education councils have adopted differing policies. Anglophone South and East passed policy amendments mandating school staff respect all students' informal chosen names and pronouns, regardless of parental consent or age. Official name and pronoun changes for kids under 16 have always required parental signoff, even before the review.

Man in suit, reflected in camera viewfinder in foreground New Brunswick's Minister of Education Bill Hogan introduced controversial changes to Policy 713 earlier this month. (Radio-Canada)

Connie Keating, the president of the New Brunswick Teachers Association, said the union's relationship with this government has been "bitter."

"It's unsettling. We don't know where we're going to be come fall," she told Information Morning Fredericton.

"Over the summer, will we be able to get a collective agreement? Will we find ourselves on the picket line? Those are not the questions we want to be asking. We really want to be focused on student learning."

Keating declined to explain the sticking points in contract negotiations because they're now in the middle of a conciliation process with mediators. She said the union and the employer submitted briefs to a conciliation board, which is expected to deliver a report in mid-July.

2 education council policies differ from province's

Earlier this month, Education Minister Bill Hogan announced changes to Policy 713, which outlines basic protections for LGBTQ students. 

Hogan said one of the changes effectively bans teachers and staff from using a child under 16's chosen name and pronoun informally, unless the child gets parental consent first. And if the child doesn't want to address this with parents, they're to be "directed" to a school psychologist or social worker to come up with a plan to speak to their parents. 

The union representing those mental health professionals has filed a  grievance over these policy changes, saying the policy is not clear and it makes them complicit in harming children.

The New Brunswick Association of School Psychologists said denying a child's right to identity is against the New Brunswick Human Rights Act, and it also causes psychological harm.

Minister Hogan previously said the changes were made to maintain the parents' right to know. He said if a child requests an informal pronoun change from their teacher, and declines to include their parents, using that pronoun is tantamount to "keeping secrets." He said teachers shouldn't be keeping parents in the dark.

Keating said the narrative around these policy changes has harmed the relationship between parents and teachers. 

"We feel that it's tried to paint teachers and parents on opposite sides of the issue. And not only has it done that, there seems to have been a conscious effort to undermine the trust that teachers hold with their students," she said.

"Parents and teachers, we are partners and children's education and their well-being, and this is not where we should be."

A man wearing glasses and a plaid shirt Rob Fowler, for chair of the Anglophone South District Education Council, says the DEC policies are stronger, better protect children. (Hadeel Ibrahim/CBC)

The people involved in creating this policy, including district education councils and and mental health experts, say the intention of the policy is to provide a safe space for students to be themselves without fear. Not all parents are supportive, and children should be able to trust that they won't be reported to parents if they confide in a teacher.

Rob Fowler, who was the chair of Anglophone South education council for years, said the goal is to protect children above all else. He said he knew of a student who was engaged with school work but started to change, became sullen and his marks went down.

"He said, 'Well I came out to my parents, they threw me out of the house, so I'm living in a park.' That's the child we're trying to protect," Fowler told Shift N.B.

"We shouldn't be outing kids who by very nature are not feeling comfortable enough to tell their parents but they have found a safe place in the school."

​As the school year draws to a close, teachers are feeling a lot of uncertainty heading into the summer vacation.​ Jeanne Armstrong spoke to NBTA ​p​resident Connie Keating​.​

Fowler said the local policies passed by the district education councils are stronger, and typically, district staff follow the stronger policy. 

"I hope that teachers and staff will follow that," he said. 

The Anglophone West council is expected to meet in a few weeks to decide whether to follow suit. Francophone Nord-Ouest said it has no plans to change Policy 713. The remaining education councils did not respond to CBC's request for information.

An opposition motion passed in legislature mandating that child and youth advocate Kelly Lamrock review the changes to Policy 713. He's expected to make recommendations on Aug. 15, but nothing he recommends will be binding.

I get so frustrated reading anything regarding public opinion on teachers. Having done this job for 25+ years, the lack of support from government and the public around what we do is such a sign of the times. Yes, many colleagues are deciding to change professions or opting for early retirement. This is the sad reality. No, it is not just based on one policy being altered, but a lack of overall trust and respect that not only are the children's needs being met, but parents' role is being respected and those parent/teacher relationships are seen as a necessity to fully support the child. What the public does not understand is the dire situations some of these children experience every day, with home lives that are abusive or neglectful. The amount of children coming to school malnourished or with other obvious signs of abuse is nothing short of a crisis. It is the teachers, administration and support staff that deal with these situations, (from what I have experienced) with empathy and care. The role of the teacher has changed. We can't deny this. With this, the burn out levels are also undeniable. And to continue to belittle the profession publicly might make some people who hate their jobs, or hate that they have to work in the summers feel better about themselves. I guess if the government doesn't recognize the worth or have respect for the profession, it only makes sense that the public will follow suit.

I don't see any "both ways" in this discussion. Parents see teachers as a homogenous group; union affiliation has nothing to do with it.

And why would any teacher consider severing from a mechanism with some ability to assist, when the gov't has hinted at punitive measures against any teacher who fails to strictly follow the updated policy?

It boggles the mind...

Teaching used to be a respectable profession. Unions ruined that and protected the do-nothings. There are good and bad in every profession. Unions make sure the bad ones remain employed. Just teach...dont parent. No one in interested in your philosophy....just do the job.

Taken over education, healthcare and are now reeling in the social work world. Just this morning they're doing damage control, covering up for those whose subpar performance has allowed horrible things to transpire in NB. Thanks unions.

It is really all a moot point anyways . Premier Higgs is doing a Cabinet shuffle as I type this ; and there will probably be an election this fall which will be a deciding factor on policy 713 ; as all N.B.ers will get a chance to cast their opinion at the ballot box .

Higgs faces growing dissent from cabinet on LGBTQ policy review

"Ministers who can't publicly support a government policy or decision would normally be expected to resign, Wright said. 

"But Higgs will be feeling the heat," he added. "Politically, it's never good to lose or fire a cabinet minister. And he certainly doesn't want to precipitate a caucus revolt."

Former education minister Dominic Cardy, who quit last fall over proposed changes to French immersion, says there are plenty of reasons why ministers are reluctant to resign.

"You lose a very large chunk of your salary, you lose access to a government car, different benefits," he said.

"But in the end, what's the point of this job? The point of being an elected official is to serve the people of the province."

A wave of departures could either force Higgs back to the more moderate style he adopted early in his term or push him out, Cardy said."

Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick
 Legislative calendar released for 2016-17

19 October 2016

FREDERICTON (GNB) – The provincial government has laid out its
proposed legislative calendar for the third session of the legislative
assembly, which is expected to run from November 2016 to November
2017.

“We have brought forward rule changes to modernize proceedings,
similar to how our neighbouring provinces conduct legislative
business,” said Government House Leader Rick Doucet. “Last year, for
the first time in New Brunswick, we published a legislative calendar
to provide predictability for MLAs, media and the public. We are doing
so again this year, and will go a step further by asking the
legislature to formally adopt the calendar.”

The government will propose a motion early in the session to adopt its
proposed sitting calendar. This is in response to best practices in
several other provinces and to a recommendation by the Green Party.

“I am glad to see the government is committed to having the
legislative assembly adopt a fixed calendar for its work,” said David
Coon, leader of the Green Party of New Brunswick. “I look forward to
working together over the coming months as we continue to build a
stronger, more effective legislature where all parties work more
collaboratively.”

The proposed legislative calendar is as follows, by week or month:

•House: Nov. 2, 8 and 15; Dec. 6 and 13; Jan. 31; Feb. 7; March 14, 21
and 28; April 25 and May 2.
•Committee: Nov. 22; Jan. 17; Feb. 14, 21 and 28; April 11 and 18;
Sept. 26; Oct. 3 and 10.
•Constituency: Nov. 29; Dec. 20 and 27; Jan. 3, 10 and 24; April 4;
May 9, 16, 23 and 30; full months of July and August; Sept. 5, 12 and
19.
•March break: March 7.
Additionally, in respect of the right of opposition parties to prolong
debate on legislation, the government has set aside the following
weeks for supplementary sittings, if required. This is similar to the
longstanding federal practice in Ottawa:

•Supplementary committee weeks: June 6 and 13.
•Supplementary house weeks: June 20 and 27.

If you had two aardvarks would you let me borrow one? Or maybe both of

The obvious answer is: You see my phone number why not call me and ask me direct? I ain't shy.It is not my fault you never heard of me. I ran for a Seat in Parliament twice with no hope of getting elected if you are so concerned about LNG whay not ask me what i know of the crap. Furthermore I sent you some emails to prove my integrity. Didn't so it I before I tried to post my comments in your blog? Why did you block them? My question Mikey MacDonald is who the hell are you?

Mr Amos when I tore apart Mr Chases article I sent it to him with my full name .I don't care that you know who I am.

I may soon have a pipeline running through my back yard which is going to change the quality of life of my family.I am a citizen who got fed up with one sided journalism.There is no smoke and mirrors with me.I am calling them as I see them.If you don't like the blog .I guess all I can say is don't blog or blog away .Thats what it is there for.I don't expect everyone to agree with me.Thats democracy.
If you are trying to intimidate me with your rants.think again.

No you think again Mikey Baby. USE your telephone as I challenged you to do. The simple truth should not intimadate an honest man. It was you who struck my words. If you had bothered to read my so called rants before you ignored them and then asked the world you the Hell I am, you would have noticed I agree with you and in fact know about this crap than you can dream of.

Now stayed tuned to this particular blog and watch Frenchie make it melt. He is the liar not me. He labelled me as a Hells Angel when I ran against the aptly named lawyer Rob Moore in Fundy in 2004. There is no denying that I am a vindictive son of a bitch with a long memory but even you must admit that i am fair. Although both Chucky and Indymedia erased their blogs when I protested their obvious malice, like you they erased everything I attemped to post. Ask yourself why Mikey Baby and the cry me a river again about what Irving is having crammed through your backyard. Guess who saves every word I write or what is said of me to use in litigation? In answer to your question in your own blog. Yes the people in Saint John should sue somebody in order to put a stop to the evil Empires control. Good luck finding a lawyer that ain't afraid of Irvings. You took a picture down as soon as you got a phone call. In my book that makes you a chickenshit. You talk the talk but do not walk the walk. You should have let them sue you in order to meet them in court and make you issues well known and recorded in the public record. I have been begging someone to sue me for years if they think they can prove what I say is untrue because whenever I sue them the corrupt courts meerely see it dismissed and stricken from the record. Look up Byron Prior sometime in Google and then tell me again that you
Obviously you used my phone number now I know yours. Clearly you just pissed me off Lets see you apology ya bastard.

Rick Hancox Executive Director
c/o Suzanne Ball Senior
Legal Counsel
and Manon Losier General Counsel
and Secretary to the New Brunswick
Securities Commission
85 Charlotte Street, Suite 300
Saint John, NB E2L 2J2
RE: Securities Fraud and Public Corruption
Sir,
Pursuant to our conversation today please find enclosed exactly the same material sent to the eight other provincial Attorney Generals in Canada before I returned to my native land again this year. Obviously the AGs Brad Green and Tom Marshall have known the truth of my matters since the summer of 2004. They have maliciously ignored my false imprisonment in the USA for their own political benefit. The tapes enclosed are exactly the same copies that were served upon the lawyers acting for Rogers Media byway of their newsman Tom Young today. As you listen to the tape you will hear that I mentioned your Commission on air in Saint John weeks ago. Methinks you should have called me then instead of waiting for me to contact you again today.
The tapes and the CD of wiretap tape #139 are served upon the Commission's lawyers Ms. Ball and Ms. Losier as in confidence as officers of the court in order that my allegations of illegal wiretaps by crooked law enforcement authorities may be finally properly investigated ASAP by ethical law enforcement authorities. Hopefully this will be done before I sue the Crown about my false imprisonment but I am not holding my breath. April 3rd is coming fast. Upon your study of these documents you will see that I have not yet given the Yankee SEC all of my evidence of Securities Fraud. However every Attorney General in Canada has been made well aware of it for quite sometime before the SEC declared it was willing to investigate the actions of the former Minister of Finance Ralph Goodale. To date not one person has responded me nor did me the simple courtesy of returning my calls or emails as you finally did today.
Clearly I must complain of the Crown myself without delay before further harm is done to my Clan. Rest assured I will be calling you, Mr. Hancox and the lawyers within your Commission to testify at a trial of my matters in Federal Court in Fredericton. A very pigheaded yet ethical Maritimer knows that justice has been delayed way past too long for the benefit of public corruption and not the public trust. I will not wait for anyone on public service to act within the scope of their employment anymore. To put it simply, after our conversation today I had no faith that you were willing to do your job.

Nope the first question should be Chucky where is the computer I gave you in 2004 Yopu know the one the Anglo due from Minto took home for you. You claimed it was no good yea well I would like to have it back
Anonymous said...
The next question is does your buddy Vaughn Burnett still have the material that you promised you would serve upon Brad Green in June of 2004 for me? Has he listened to the CD which is a copy of police surveilance tape # 139? I will call hinm and you as witnesses to testify in Federal Court in Fredericton. The wannabe lawyer and you buddy Bernard Richard both admitted to me that they had the evidence before I was falsely imprisoned in the Yankee jail in 2004. So much for etyhical EH?

What do you do with a computer that don't work?

You know the answer!

Papers? to deliver to the Justice Minister? Sorry...I'm not a Sheriff!!!!

As far as blogging goes I do have one but do not post much. Because unlike you I feel that less is moreI do not need a blog I employ other people's blogs and only deal with the issues they raise first then take them down the path of the garden of good and evil just like I did with you years ago when they call me a liar. Check with your associate Mikey. He did not allow even my first comment. Just like your buddies in Indymedia. However they certainly allowed you to slam me. Didn't they Chucky?
Just in case anyone cares about the spelling I am typing quickly because Methinks Chucky will soon erase this stuff just like he always does. However here is my phone number again call me and I will show anyone the proof of what I is true and I will even allow them to listen to a wiretap tape or two.

Your said the computer didn't work but I know that it did and I brought it all the way from Boston because you were crying poor mouth on the phone. Furthermore I have to witnesses that heard you say you would love to take on Brad Green. the Anglo dude from Minto is one. you the one you call a bigot. I was looking for you in the legislature library to witness me serving the liberal lawyers Burke and Lamrock next door at 710 Queen St when your buddy Dannyboy Bussieres and the Fredericton cops threw me out on June 24th 2004. I was not talking from the gallery as you falsely claim. I have a witness to that fact to . In fact he is a Deputy Minister you was on the floor at the time. the Commisssioners you have befriended made false allegations about me.

Mr. David Raymond Amos,

We respectfully invite you to consider a Letter to the Editor, i.e.., How Free Trade undermines Maritime Economic Development. We had heard you make some representation about a U.S. company which truck out Maritime 'wealth', as a result of not having similar .provincial resources rights as Alberta, Many Maritimes would be potentially interested in such an editorial.

Merci.

Hey Mr. Stokes
Thanks for the suggestion. As you should know the most glaring example of a company that has been raping the Maritimes with abandon for many years is obviously the Irving Empire. However lately there are some very nasty new players on the scene such a PCS and Corridor Resourses etc etc. I am very busy these days and I am not a journalist. You people are though yet it seems you would rather me say the awlful truth than yourselves because of some possible lawsuit EH?
So be it. I will because it is not slander if one's words are true. Perhaps you should consider checking my work and then come to court sometime in order to listen to me argue all the smiling bastards. You can have much of my work in a click of the button of my mouse. But first please allow me to introduce you to the New Brunswick Securities Commission. I got a rather interesting response from them today whilst I was in Fredericton. They have ignored my concerns for almost a year but now that Bernie Lord's government is getting tipsy, it appears all the bad actors want to show me their arse just in time for me to boot it.
It is Securities Commissions such as this that allow many publicly held companies such as Corridor Resources or Magna Entertainment etc to get away with many things rather than remind them of the law and on how they should conduct business in an ethical fashion. That said, these Commisssions have no say whatsoever over the Irving Empire and that is truly bad. It is a privately held corporation that knows very well the power of money and on how to pay off greedy politicians in order to get anything they want. In the nutshell of the Maritimes that is quite simply everything. It seems that I am the only Maritimer who is not afraid of the ghost of mean old KC Irving and his monoply game. It has always been hard times in the Maritimes. We lament about it all the time but our apathy and fear of the Irvings etc gives us the govenments we deserve.
Print this if you wish. You are off the hook that Irving's lawyers threaten ordinary folks with. I am fearless yet never reckless with the truth. I stand by my own words and invite anyone to sue me if they think I am a liar and wish to argue me. I hate it when the chickenshits send crooked cops against me bearing false allegations in a faint hearted effort to shut me up. It does the smiling bastards no good and only serves to make matters worse.

Re: Public Corruption

Sirs,
Pursuant to my many phone calls and email to your offices please find enclosed the material I promised to you before I file my complaints in Federal Court in Fredericton. The CD which is a true copy of wiretap tape number 139 is served upon you all in confidence as officers of the court in order that it may be investigated byway of my suing the Crown.
While Norm Betts and Derek Burney’s buddy Stevey Boy Harper is busy in New Brunswick today trying hard to shore up the shaky government of Jody Carr’s buddy, Bernie Lord with long delayed federal tax dollars. I am polishing off my promises to crooked lawyers in the hope that the very corrupt House crumbles ASAP. If not maybe President Chavez will help me bankrupt the crooks working within NB Power within a crooked government’s blessing. Methinks Tanker will need another lawyer if the one he has now continues to play dumb. Lord paid Allaby a lot of money to study the doings of the Justice Dept a long time ago. He should understand the scene.
Shame on you all for forcing me to go to such lengths to protect my rights under the Charter. Methinks you have underestimated my diligence EH? Now ask yourselves why I don’t sue you after I sue the Crown? I fail to see any reason not to. That is the only way I know of to hold such people as you accountable. Stevey Boy Harper never will even though he talks the talk of such things. Everybody knows what I served upon his party’s lawyer Arthur Hamilton before I was falsely imprisoned in the USA in 2004.
Despite whatever Act our latest Prime Minister wishes to introduce to the Canadian people that he claims will compel our government to act with integrity, he can never deny my right to drag anyone into court. In fact he has done so himself in the past and I am no less of a man than he. Even a simple pigheaded Maritimer has the right to argue the law even with people who think themselves above it. How you all have failed to uphold the law and the public trust placed in your public office is either a matter of public record or soon shall be or my name ain’t Dave. There is no Democracy without Truth and Justice. It is just that simple.
Thats all for now fellas. I look forward to seeing you all in court someday or I will die trying to make it happen in an ethical fashion. It is just another one of those things I do that lawyers fail to appreciate. Ask your friends why that is if you don’t already know.

Hey
Everybody received hard copy in hand to their offices except of course what the UPS dudes are bringing to Paul Shuttle and Andre Arthur. Obviously Yankees ain't as quick as me even when I give them two days head start. I have signatures and pictures to prove that all the New Brunswickers named below got their material today as I promised last week except for the sneaky Conflict of Interest Commmissioner Mr. Patrick who hides behind locked doors. He just sent the Sergeant at Arms who tried to run me off again.
However the Frenchman Danny Boy Bussieres had to accept my material on behalf of the Commissioner and our Queen whom he represents no matter how much he wishes to ban me from the Legislature. He didn't sign anything but what transpired between us was witnessed by a man who was not involved. I gave the crooked Quebecer hard copy in hand. Somebody speaking for the Queen should answer me ASAP. EH? If Danny Boy wishes to attempt to ban me from the Legislature again he really should put it in writng. EH? Perhaps he should clearly state the reasons behind his malice and who is accusing me of what. Otherwise I will ignore him until we meet in court. Then I will have many questions for him on the public record. I repeat, I have never threatened or harassed anyone. The next time he and I meet I hope to have many witnesses watching our exchange of words instead of just one man.The Sergeant at Arms Danny Boy Brouseirres lake most lawyers and politicians is a liar.
I will leave you all to wonder who receives this email next but lets just say I was very correct about my assessment of the Public Utilities Board and the New Brunswick Securoties Commission. corrupt Maritimers act just like crookedYankees. After all most of them are lawyers and their brotherhood practices their malice across borders all day long every day. The thing is can they trust each other when the politiking gets down and dirty. Methinks there is no honour amongst theives no matter how powerful they are. What say you? I know your answer already and that only time will tell the tale to prove what I say is true. Until then I will simply remain a man of my word and hope for justice to prevail. It is your job to uphold the Public Trust not mine.

Well I must say I am not surprised. I am in fact delighted to introduce some folks in the Martimes to the man most responsible for my false imprisonment in the USA. I have been fishing for him to make his usual appearance within a Blog. If one speaks of the devil long enough he is sure to appear. EH Chucky? This crook's name is Deputy Dog Robert F. O'Meara of the Norfolk County sheriffs Dept. A bigger snake in Massachusetts there never was. Right now it is suppertime and I ain't goona let it grow cool worrying about what he may say of me but rest assured I will relish and save every word of it. Stay tuned and I will post many of his words that have been deleted from many other blogs in order to protect him and the crooks who have covered up his many crimes.
At least I have a name EH Deputy Dog? Even on the internet you use girlfriend's Wicked Wanda Willard's ID

Now that I finally see one vote of confidence.It is time to stress Chucky's words to the max. Lets see if this post stands the test of time. I am posting something that only a few politicians have seen. Whereas Chucky's buddy Danny Boy Brussieres had banned me from the Legislature and Chucky did not have the balls to deliver the material to Brad Green I and my son, Max delivered in hand the matereial to both of the following dudes offices in Moncton right after Canada Day and Paul Martin's boat had been caught in Sidney with more coke than coal on board. We then went home to where I was raised in Dorchester Nb and I laughed at the thought of Charles LeBlanc as I drove through his hometown. If he had had the sand to deliver this letter and the material I had given him to Brad when he promised to so. He would be my hero, Bernie Lord's government would have fallen, my adversary Deputy Dog Robert F. O'Meara would have gone to jail instead of me and most importantly my little Clan would be still in their home today. If Brad Green Bernie Lord and Franky Boy McKenna had acted with integrity I would not have to sue the Crown in order to have a fraudulent warrant for my arrest revoked in the USA. Anyone should feel free to print or email the text of this letter with abandon simply because Brad Green answered it. I can email anyone a copy of his response in a tif file. In fact I will email one to Frenchie and Deputy Dog Robert F. O'Meara, Brad Green and his buddies first first. You will know that Chucky got it first and can never play dumb no more. I will forward it on to anyone who asks and they can decide you is crazy and who is not and who is a liar and who is not. My email address is motomaniac_02186 at yahoo.com and my phone number is 506 434 1379 I do not call people collect as Chucky does.

RE: Corruption
Hey Fellas,
Please find enclosed exactly the same material served upon Paul Zed before he met Paul Martin at the airport last weekend. The copy of wiretap tape numbered 139 is served upon you in confidence as officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated. As you review the material it should be painfully obvious to you why I have no respect for your chosen profession of lawyer/politician. I must say that both Mr. Lord and Mr. McKenna were clever to keep some distance from the recent federal election but I don’t think it was very wise for Mr. Lord to have me expelled from the Legislature Building for political reasons rather than legal reasons.
I have done as the Sargent at Arms ordered on June 24th and stayed away from the Legislature and waited for it to take its summer break so that no more bullshit about me can be said. I have now delivered this material to your constituency office Mr. Lord so that you may deal with this at a personal level with Mr. Green. I will complain of you Mr. Lord and your friends Mr. Green, Mr. Armstrong and Mr. Burke to court along with the Fredericton Police Dept. and the Sargent at Arms if I do not receive a satisfactory response very quickly and convince me of your ethics and stand with me. I have not heard from the Fredericton Police Dept. thus I suspect that Corporal Ross has done as he threatened and thrown this material in the trash for the benefit of his fellow police officer, Mr. LeBlanc.
Mr. Green may I suggest that you study every word and listen to the CD closely and prepare to argue every word if you disagree with the fact that a fellow Canadian has the right to seek justice and relief for the many wrongs practiced against him. What would you do if the Men in Black had appeared at your door and were willing to take you away to Cuba without counsel because of false allegations were made against you in order to stop you from defending your family’s interests? As you can see I have come home to protest these actions in a political and legal fashion. I have done only as the Solicitor General Anne McLellan has suggested and given the evidence to those who claim to have jurisdiction over me. You speak for the Sargent at Arms and the Fredericton Police. They dropped the ball the instant they pulled me outside the building for no reason. They claimed jurisdiction but refused to investigate. I have seen it reported that I had tried to speak from the gallery and the Sargent at Arms falsely claimed that I had attempted to serve someone within the legislature building. Both statements are untrue. I left materials at the door in the custody of the security guard as he requested. I was only looking to find Charles Leblanc in order that he may witness me delivering the enclosed materials to T.J. Burke’s office. This was necessary for me to do because as you know most lawyers are reckless with the truth. I will let your fellow politician/lawyer. Peter McKay, explain to you the reason why that is. However it was no longer necessary to require a witness because the Sargent at Arms and the Fredericton Police had watched me go into 710 Queen St and come out without the material they had just refused after harassing me. They are my witnesses as you are now.
As for you, Mr. McKenna, I expect you and your fellow lawyers at McInnes Cooper to uphold the law and conduct yourselves in a professional manner according to the rules that allow you to practice law for a fee. Don’t you think you should act ethically rather quickly and report your newfound knowledge of crime? At the very least I have made you witnesses to my complaints and rest assured I will be asking you many questions in court if the RCMP doesn’t ask you first. Mr. McKenna, I read your recent speech about how you likened the actions of federal political leaders to various purebred dogs. I must add my two bits worth to your comments. Those fancy dogs don’t hunt like the mangy old mutt that is the guard dog of my little Clan. I don’t bark but I am quick to bite. If you turn around you will see me sniffing at your heels. If any lawyer makes one false move, I make every effort to rip his nuts off. Check my work before you call me a liar.
I have followed the money home to the Maritimes. I find that you and many other liberals have been in pursuit of filthy lucre every bit as much as Mr. Mulroney, Mr. Crosbie and their many cohorts. The Maritime Provinces have suffered the most from the many years of political abuse by greedy lawyers and their bosses. Mr. Harper called Maritimers defeatists but he failed to say who was beating us up. Obviously it was federal politicians on both sides of the fence. The last thing Mr. Martin is to me is noble. In my opinion he is a fine example of a very crooked lawyer aspiring to be an adept politician like his daddy. I view your speech about dogs simply as a little dog licking a big dog’s nuts in a stylish way in order to win the Alfa male’s favor and someday win his position amongst a pack of political thieves. Feel free to argue me after you explain to me real slow how Cardinal Law was legally removed from my complaint and what right the Men in Black had to try to take me away because I am exposing the awful truth about bad acting bankers and Feds. Please don’t pretend that you guys don’t know a few very well heeled Yankees that have helped you along in your own personal pursuit of happiness. Mr. Tobin got a great job working for an interesting Conservative. Eh? Should Belinda listen to Mr. Mulroney and Mr. Harper or to her new CEO? What do you think? How much time do you think I may have left on the planet for asking such questions as this? What do you think may cause my demise? In the end I will rest assured that someday my ghost will be very vindictive against lawyers that failed to uphold the law. At this point in time it would be very easy for some lawyer to act ethically and become the people’s political hero. What say you? Can you trust your legal and political friends to not turncoat and stand with me? Interesting dilemma, eh?

Only the crooks are scared that I am back in the Maritimers. A lot of ordinary folks like me are laughing at how I am poking holes in their stuffed shirts. This letter is wickedly funny, Both Adrienne Clarkson and Herménégilde Chiasson answered this one after my wife and I and a lawyer who wanted Rob Moore's seat in parliament visited the Police Commission in New Brunswick. Bev Harrison would not answer this letter or even return my calles even though he has represented me from my spot on the hill since I landed home last year. His assistants have affirmed to me several times that they received it. I am demanding an answer from Tanker now tha old Bev's assistant Bill Oliver refused to call me back for the last time on Friday. I do not care what the tough talking Danny Boy Bussieres says only the Speaker can authorize the Sergeant at Arms to ban a man from the legislature. Besides that the Governor General his ultimate boss told me I was doing the right thing before I returned to the USA and into Deputy Dog's buddy's jail.

RE: Corruption
Sirs,
Please find enclosed exactly the same material served upon Premier Lord and Frank McKenna on the day after Canada Day and a copy of Brad Green’s response. I have also enclosed a letter to Senator Joe Day that was to be forwarded to the Arar Commission. The copy of wiretap tape numbered 139 is served upon you in confidence as the Queen’s representatives of in order that it may be properly investigated. I ask New Brunswick’s Lieutenant-Governor of, Herménégilde Chiasson to forward this material to the Governor General of Canada. I have already emailed her notice to expect this material and I will email her the text of this letter as well.
Whereas the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick stands adjourned until Tuesday, December 14, 2004, at 1 o'clock p.m, perhaps you fellas can find a little time to answer me before I sue the Queen in the USA. My questions are as follows: Why did Sergeant-at-Arms, Dan Bussieres and the Fredericton Police Dept. ask me to step outside the Legislature Building and then forever ban me from re-entering the premises on June 24th, 2004? What will you do with your newfound knowledge of crime?
It is only fair that I ask these questions. After all I am a Canadian Citizen and I do have the right to ask any question to those who represent me. Whether they are born to the position or elected or appointed or merely hired, they all must uphold the law and the public trust. The Queen of Canada, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, is the official Head of State and is represented in New Brunswick by the Lieutenant-Governor. Therefore, the Lieutenant-Governor is the nominal Head of State at the provincial level, empowered with the responsibility of representing the Queen in the province. Thus I have asked him the aforesaid questions before I leave the jurisdiction of New Brunswick.
The Ombudsman, Bernard Richard told me to take my matter up the Speaker of the House and thus far Mr. Harrison has ignored my phone calls and emails. Bev Harrison did have the opportunity to ask me any question he wished before he decided not to vote for me. It seems he would rather have the lawyer, Rob Moore speak for him in Parliament. I would not be surprised to learn that Bev Harrison was the same man I had spoken to months ago or that he had attended the debate in Hampton. I have no doubt that Mr Harrison knows exactly who I am and why I was in Fredericton that day. I am not a rebel just because I make inquiries and demand that people in public service uphold the law.
The problem is that on June 24th I was a candidate for the 38th Parliament. I was busy challenging those still in public service such as John Herron to do their jobs and uphold the law. I was merely in the legislative building looking for the Frenchman Charles Leblanc so he could witness me serve this material upon the lawyer, T J Burke next door. I had made certain that many politicians were made well aware of my concerns and allegations before coming home to run for a seat in the next Parliament. The local liberal, Leroy Armstrong was willing to debate me so I was giving this material to his liberal lawyer friends to review. Dan Bussieres offended me for political reasons not legal reasons. The Speaker of the House should not have allowed the Sergeant’s actions or at least responded to my inquiry. These must be irrefutable facts because after almost two months of asking everyone imaginable about the actions of the Sergeant-at-Arms, no one would even tell me his name let alone explain his actions, It appears that the Government of Canada would rather assist corrupt politicians within a country that had rebelled against the Queen than assist one of her subjects to escape their harassment.
I must return to the USA because I have been summoned to court to argue more false allegations made against me. Whereas my country is willing to throw me back into Ashcroft’s clutches, I must complain of the Crown. It seems the Yankees may have been right long ago when they refused to pay taxes without proper representation. Perhaps Canada should follow suit. We all know what has been said about the evils of longstanding governments. What say you sirs? Am I speaking sedition or common sense?
I have heard that Louis Riel once said that the French would take over Canada without firing a shot. Now many of the French wish to separate. Maybe true Canadians can reunite our country in the same fashion. There is no need of the cartridge box as long as we properly employ the soap box and ballot box. The tools of bloodless revolutions are the laws of the land. They are in the hands of people begging us for our vote every so often. Canada does not need to pay homage to a Queen who will not check the work of the people representing her and us. We need a new form of government. I agree with Louis Riel’s thinking when he proclaimed that the Metis were “loyal subjects of Her Majesty the Queen of England’. If we are rebels, we are rebels against the Company that sold us” Although he was labelled a rebel, Louis Riel was a Canadian patriot who did stop Western Canada from being absorbed by the USA. He was also elected to Parliament twice. He would abhor NFTA as much as I. The words in Riel’s diary are well worth heeding.
“O my God! Save me from the misfortune of getting involved with the United States. Let the United States protect us indirectly, spontaneously, through an act of Providence, but not through any commitment or agreement on our part.” Riel stated in his diary this as well: “God revealed to me that the government of the United States is going to become extraordinarily powerful.”

This letter really put Lizzy Weir's panties in a knot. Chucky's buddy Bernie Richard answered me immediately but she never did. When I got out of jail and jumped bail in the USA one year later and started demanding answers from the NDP she was not long taking a job from Bernie Lord and leaving her party in the toilet. Bernie Richard di the same thing years ago to save Lord nasty little minority. The problem is the liberals are no better ask the not so good Dr. Doherty if he wishes to argue me in public about it. In order to argue him and the pretty woman Bernie Lord had his eyes on I tried to run in Bernie's snap election in Saint John Harbour because in my opinion I caused Lizzy to quit and run off. I knew I would never be elected but the decent folks who always voted NDP deserved to know the score and my opinion of the LNG scene is worth listening to. However the not so non partison Anne Hollies and her yo yo underling Paddy Addison illegally refused me for the benefit of Bernie Lord.The Irvings and the Spanish dudes who have lost their popularity in other countries want to put such a dangerous thing right int the damned harbour and the crooked Mayor suppots it? What planet is he from I must ask. People with no names call me crazy. Well in retort I say if the politicians are sane then I am glad I am nuts.
However before they put me away anyone can have this letter and Bernie Richard's very dumb answer. I would not be surprised if this blog turns into a pumpkin by midnight EH Chucky? However if you leave it up I will post sometime a very wicked Cinderella Affadavit by Newfy Johnny Crosbie's law firm of Patterson Palmer that will explain why the liberal President in NB Greg Byrne has now gone solo.

Well? As I said earlier in the day.

No swearing or smears and everything should be ok.

I can delete this particular blog in seconds but we'll keep it here.

So far so good....

Try to be nice....

One no named dude lamented that I go on and on and I admit that that is true. On ther other hand earlier another fella ask for more and lamented that I was too slow posting. Rest assured I know most Maritimers do not give a damn about legal crap or politics. I fit in that boat as well it is just that the smiling bastards attacked me and my little clan and I must defend myself the best way I know how. I figure fire with fire so to speak so I went fiercely political and did not care about being elected. I just wanted to make my issues public for the benefit of my family first and foremost and the awful truth only hurts crooks. Most folks would find this crap boring yet lawyers and politicians like old women are gossips big time. They climb to the top pulling on the balls of others to get there. Trust that many would find this an interesting read. There is a lot to tell after being blocked in most places for years and I am trying hard to stay local to Fredericton only simply because that is the audience the Chucky draws. If the dude don't like to read my stuff click to another of Chucky's mindless blogs and look a pictures that take a long time to look at in dial up.
For ethical lawyers (if there is such athing) benefit here is something that will help explain the news today in a very funny light. McAllister answered me but Miller did not. Miller's (David Hache's too)law firm is merging with the rest of Patterson Palmer's outfit so it appears I have now crossed paths with the same bunch of bastards at least four times in various matters. Merging makes a firm more powerful but it also opens the door to the need to defend the bad actions of your many partners. Everybody knows you can't trust lawyer the that Patterson and palmer in Halifax went with Franky Boy McKenna's buddies i all to funny to me. The dudes in Turo are the only smart ones in the bunch. They said to hell with them all. Maybe I will give then a call. If you cannnot find an honest lawyer your might as well hire the wisest one EH? As i said Byron Priors complaint will prove to the Maritimes why. Look him up on the web or in front of Parliament next week.

RE: Corruption
Sirs,
Please find enclosed exactly the same material served upon New Brunswick’s Lieutenant-Governor Hermenegilde Chiasson and many others. The copy of wiretap tape numbered 139 is served upon you in confidence as officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated.
Months ago I contacted you, Mr. McAllister by phone and informed you that I wholeheartedly agreed with your standing that Insurance companies were making the consumers cover their losses in the stock market. Brad Green and Premier Lord played Ms. Weir and the Commission like a fiddle and were merely doing their part to assist the interests of the Insurance Companies at the expense of the public trust. Although you were happy to hear that your opinions had been read and understood, you definitely did not want my evidence supporting your claims. Pursuant to my last statement to you, Mr. McAllister I have now proved to you that I am a man of my word and I now expect you to obey the Code of Conduct that you must obey in order to practice law for a fee.
Mr. Miller, the same holds true for you. Within these documents you will find the name of a lawyer you know very well, David Lutz. I find this man to be a very poor example of an officer of the court and I don’t mind telling the world my opinion of him. Please read my letter to him and let me know as to whether or not you stand with him and against me. If anyone were to ask me, Mr. Lutz is a man in need of legal aid and has no right to charge others for his malicious assistance. Will you spring to his defence when I file a complaint against him? Whether you fellas like it or not I have now made you witnesses to my sad complaints before I returned to the USA.
If I survive the malicious prosecution that I am looking forward to in Boston next month, I will return to litigate in New Brunswick. There is no middle ground for any lawyer to stand on in this battle within two corrupt justice systems. All that I have demanded from any lawyer is simple ethical conduct. Why is that too much to ask for?
I have read your various spit and chews with Brad Green and I must admit I find them to be quite comical from my position as a layman in the catbird seat. Rest assured that I will endeavour to make my opinions widely known. Sue me if you wish. In fact I double dog dare ya to. Bring this material to court so that the jury can have something to read while we argue truth, justice and the Maritimes kowtowing to the American Way.
Cya’ll in Court:)

Even if you do delete it Chucky you know for a fact that I already saved it. With luck I will be showing you a printed copy of it in court someday. I will ask you many questions in public not private emails about what the hell you know about this crap. Why you lied about me called me names and didn't give Brad Green my material as you promised spoke volumes to me about your integrity. Don't even try to argue me about my manners. I know how to behave myself it is you who does not.

A F F I D A V I T

I, Stephen J. May, of the City of St. John’s, in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Barrister and Solicitor, make oath and say as follows:

THAT I am a Partner in the St. John’s office of PATTERSON PALMER solicitors for William Matthews, the Member of Parliament for Random-Burin-St. George’s in the Parliament of Canada.

THAT Mr. Matthews originally retained Mr. Edward Roberts, Q.C. on or about 30 April 2002 after Mr. Byron Prior, the Defendant/Plaintiff by Counterclaim, had made allegations against Mr. Matthews in a publication called “My Inheritance - The truth - Not Fiction: A Town with a Secret”. In that publication, the allegation was made that Mr. Matthews had had sex with a girl who had been prostituted by her mother. That girl was alleged to have been Mr. Prior’s sister.

THAT upon being retained, Mr. Edward Roberts wrote a letter to Mr. Prior. That letter to Mr. Prior is attached as Exhibit “1" to my Affidavit.

THAT subsequent to Mr. Roberts’ letter to Mr. Prior, Mr. Roberts received a 1 May 2002 e-mail from Mr. Prior. That e-mail is attached as Exhibit “2".

THAT subsequent to Mr. Roberts receipt of the e-mail, Mr. Prior swore an Affidavit acknowledging that what had been said in that publication was false. That Affidavit is attached as Exhibit “3" to my Affidavit. Following Mr. Roberts’ receipt of that Affidavit, Mr. Matthews advised that he was satisfied not to pursue the matter any further and our firm closed our file.

THAT on or about 25 October 2004, I was retained by Mr. Matthews following his gaining knowledge that a web site, made a series of allegations against him relating to my having sex with a girl of approximately 12 years old through to an approximate age of 15 years old. It also accused him of being a father of one of her children and accused him of having raped that girl. Upon checking the web site I saw that Byron Prior, the Defendant, had been identified as the author of the material on the site.

THAT Mr. Matthews instructed me to write Mr. Prior, to remind him of the fact that the allegations had been admitted to being false through a 16 May 2002 Affidavit to advise him of Mr. Matthews’ intentions to commence legal proceedings if the comments were not removed from the web site. A copy of my letter to Mr. Prior is attached as Exhibit “4" to this Affidavit.

THAT I attach as Exhibit “5" a transcript from a 5 November 2004 voicemail left by David Amos, identified in the voicemail as a friend of Mr. Prior.

THAT I attach as Exhibit “6" a portion of a 6 November 2004 e-mail from Mr. Amos.

THAT until I received his voicemail and e-mail, I had never heard of Mr. Amos.

THAT Mr. Amos has continued to send me e-mail since his 5 November e-mail. Including his 6 November 2004 e-mail, I have received a total of 15 e-mails as of 23 January 2005. All do not address Mr. Matthews’ claim or my involvement as Mr. Matthews’ solicitor. I attach as Exhibit “7" a portion of a 12 January 2005 e-mail that Mr. Amos sent to me but originally came to my attention through Ms. Lois Skanes whose firm had received a copy. This e-mail followed the service of the Statement of Claim on 11 January 2005 on Mr. Prior. I also attach as Exhibit “8" a copy of a 19 January 2005 e-mail from Mr. Amos.

THAT I attach as Exhibit “9" a copy of a 22 November 2004 letter addressed to me from Edward Roberts, the Lieutenant Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador covering a 2 September 2004 letter from Mr. Amos addressed to John Crosbie, Edward Roberts, in his capacity as Lieutenant Governor, Danny Williams, in his capacity as Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador, and Brian F. Furey, President of the Law Society of Newfoundland and Labrador. I requested a copy of this letter from Government House after asking Mr. Roberts if he had received any correspondence from Mr. Amos during his previous representation of Mr. Matthews. He advised me that he received a letter since becoming Lieutenant Governor, portions of which involved his representation of Mr. Matthews. Mr. Roberts’ letter also covered his reply to Mr. Amos.

THAT I attach as Exhibit “10" an e-mail from Mr. Amos received on Sunday, 23 January 2005.

THAT I swear this Affidavit in support of the Application to strike Mr. Prior’s counterclaim.


SWORN to before me at

Hey Mr. Costello
Need I say I was not impressed by you yesterday. At least you confessed that you knew who I was but so much for a jealous defense of your client’s interests. EH? That said there is no need to send you hard copy of my material. Your associates within McInnes Cooper already have enough to review and confer with you about.
Perhaps you should call the dudes or ladies (: Tell them how I chuck rocks will ya? from Patterson Palmer in Halifax that merged with your firm or better yet Lenny Hoyt and Franky Boy McKenna. In my humble opinion your little buddy Franky Boy as Canadian Ambassador should have tried to stop NB Power’s malicious lawsuit against Venezeula in the USA before it picked up steam. But what do I know. EH? I think the dudes from Venezeula were wise to bring the issues back to the Maritimes and into the Irvings’ lap. I think it was a hoot that they employed your firm to do so. What say you? Whereas you do not wish to speak to me I will speak to these dudes about you, Embassy of Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, 32 Range Rd Ottawa Ontario K1N 8J4, Phone: 613 235-5151 and then send them what I sent Allan Rock Franky Boy Mckenna and the FBI almost one year ago. Perhaps you should call some of your friends mentioned below that I served my stuff upon yesterday after I talked to you and ask them what the Hell I am up to if you don’t already know.
Veritas Vincit
David Raymond Amos

P.S. the following was an interesting article to come out in the local paper just as Humpty Dumpty had the Governor Gerneral drop the Writ on the last election. It certainly seems to me that the Irving’s and Bernie Lord were trying hard to help Stevey Boy Harper’s government and John Wallace get elected in order to protect their own selfish interests. EH? If he won’t tell ya then ask me why Franky Boy does not want to be the liberal leader right now. I Double Dog Dare Ya. As I said in closing yesterday you have my number but maybe the dudes from Venezeula lost it so here it is again 506 434 1379. Your problem is do I want to talk to you now. Whilst I am talking to your clients about your incompetance I will explain to them why I am preparing to sue your whole god damned law firm.

Liberal leader ‘jeopardizing’ NB Power’s chances in lawsuit over failed Orimulsion deal: Tory MLA
New Brunswickers should question whether Liberal Leader Shawn Graham is fighting for them or for Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, says a Tory MLA. Jody Carr, MLA for Oromocto-Gagetown, made the stinging indictment against Mr.Graham Thursday during a heated committee hearing where the Liberal leader took repeated swipes at David Hay, NB Power’s president and chief executive officer, for failing to answer legal questions regarding the utility’s Orimulsion lawsuit. Mr. Graham questioned some of the tactics being advanced by NB Power’s legal staff and demanded to know how much the power corporation budgeted for the legal battle against the Venezuelan government and its state-owned oil company.
Mr. Carr said the Liberal leader crossed the line in Thursday’s committee hearing and could endanger NB Power’s lawsuit. “The issue is complicated and it shows the issue is far over his head to what he can comprehend,” Mr. Carr said in an interview later."He was in effect working on the side of the Venezuelan government by jeopardizing the court proceedings."He was jeopardizing the chances of government and NB Power recouping the $2.2 billion in savings and therefore, in essence, that put him on the other side.” NB Power restarted its lawsuit on Sept. 1, when it filed a statement of claim looking for $2.2 billion in financial damages, which equates to the price difference between purchasing heavy fuel oil to burn at the Coleson Cove Generation Station and Orimulsion, a cheap water-and-bitumen mixture patented by Petroleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA).
NB Power has hired Stewart McKelvey Stirling Scales to quarterback the lawsuits filed in Fredericton and New York along with Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP to serve as their U.S. counsel. Mr. Hay estimated that the corporation has already spent as much as $600,000 on legal bills relating to the Orimulsion lawsuit.The Liberal leader grew increasingly frustrated when Mr. Hay stonewalled his attempt to get a firm answer on NB Power’s budget for Orimulsion-related legal fees. “For the life of me I can’t understand how it could jeopardize the court proceedings in saying how much we are thinking this court challenge may cost,” Mr. Graham said.Throughout the committee session, Mr. Hay assured the Liberal leader that the power corporation was evaluating the risk-reward ratio at each legal “fork in the road.” Mr. Hay said he cannot disclose any details that could tip the utility’s legal hand considering the Venezuelans are keeping a close eye on the proceedings."We are dealing with people with extremely deep pockets. And if you go to a poker game “... and you say, I have my $1,000 here or whatever it is you are playing with, that gives an advantage to the other side,” Mr. Hay said.
Mr. Carr also accused Mr. Graham of misleading Saint John residents about the Orimulsion costs during the recent byelection campaign in Saint John Harbour. Mr. Carr said he found it disconcerting that Liberal campaign signs said the Conservative government lost $2.2 billion through the bungled Orimulsion fuel deal but now Mr. Graham admits the money was a “potential loss of savings.”

Mr. David Amos,
we talked about 2 years ago. My cell that we talked on is [Boston area code cellphone # snipped]

Much has happened good for me since then.

Are you in Canada, in Parliment, or are you still in the Boston area?

-Steve Erickson


Does this stuff answer your question Stevey Baby? I read what you said of me within your long winded Blogs. I told you the truth years ago and now I will tell you a little bit more. To me you are just another greedy sneaky Yankee now. But to be fair to you I must admit that we have our share of bull___ing bloggers and crooked politicians in the Maritimes as well One of them is a Frenchie named Charlie Leblanc and another named Bernie Lord. Please allow me to introduce them and some of their cohorts to you. Their emails are wittin and his Blog and yours is below. How dare you bastards imply that I am a one percenter in order to promote yourselves.

http://oldmaison.blogspot.com/2006/03/very-first-day-at-new-brunswick.html

This is obvious Bull__ supported by Charlie Leblanc for his old buddy the malevolent Sergreant at Arms Danny Boy Bussieres were talking two years ago. Now that he has lost his trusted staus he files a human rights compalint after he laughed at my false imprisonment in a Yankee jail?

IS ELVY ROBICHAID SEEING THE LIGHT????
by Charles LeBlanc Friday, Jun. 25, 2004 at 10:56 AM
Fredericton

updates from Charles

I got a few late stories that I want to bring up.
They had a protest at the Legislature on Wednesday
and I would say about 400 people showed up. I made my
own little investigation in the crowd and I soon found
out that many people from the Northern Part of the
Province knew about my protest.
These Acadians read about my protest in L’Acadie
Nouvelle! A few weeks earlier, I found out that the
English Population from the Miramichi area didn’t know
about my fight so this shows me that it’s so important
to have the media covering your issues.
During the protest, I felt like I was in a police
state. There were cops are over the place. I
approached three of them and said - My God? We need
violence, bricks going through windows, people being
shot and tear gas!!!
This is the only way that the Government will
listen.
One cop said - If I have to use my gun? I know
exactly where my first bullet is going to go!! Pretty
scary…lol….
Speaking of violence?
That guy from the Sackville area who went to
Toronto with his vehicle full of guns! Very scary
Stuff!!!
What did I tell you people in the past? Someone is
going to crack up one of these days and I know for a
fact the area targeted is going to be the Legislature.

There’s always undercovers cops around but only
when the House is in session.
As God as my witness I hope nothing happens but
it’s just a matter of time till someone is push over
the edge.
I guess a guy name David Amos was shown the door
yesterday at the Legislature. This guy is running as
an Independent candidate in the riding of Fundy Royal.
I met the guy over the net and he has a beef with our
political bureaucrats.
I admire people fighting for what they believe in
but you can’t get carried away. I guess in this case?
He wanted to speak from the Gallery and that’s a big
faux pas!

After Stevey Boy Harper gets sworn in I will call Washington to see if Spectre got the wiretap tapes and then start forwarding this email everywhere. In an ethical effort to impeach Bush and his lapdog Harper myself.
What did Lamrock, Burke, Murphy, McGuinley and you think of the copy of # 139? Scared the shit out of you EH? Whereas you little local liberal lawyers would not help me unseat Premier Lord and stop Stevey Boy Harper in h9s tracks i will through in the same lawsuits with him. It is hard to get good help these days. The word integrity does not fit in the job discription of a lawyer or a Parliamentian. EH?
The fact that Emerson just crossed the floor and the Dastardly Dave Dingwall story broke yesterday kinda sends your wicked little party down the tubes EH? From my point of view it looks good on you dudes. Say Hey to Franky Boy McKenna for me will ya? I hope to argue you all very soon in court.

To Whom it may concern
I know Petey Baby MacKay don't love me so there is no sense in wasting my dime calling him. Hell he has refused to answer my letters or call me back even after Belinda Baby dumped him, so I do not expect him to do the right thing as Minister of Foreign Affairs other than to accept nasty little Franky Boy McKenna's resignation ASAP. Tell me is Franky Boy entitled to severance pay like his fellow Malawyer ritime buddy Dingwall is? Whereas the liberals Wayne Easter and Landslide Annie refused to protect my dumb arse over the years in their capacity as Solicitor General/Minister of Public Safety. I guess I should be fair and allow it Mr. Day's to try to act ethically on my behalf for a day or so, before I sue the Crown. EH?
Rest assured that I ain't holding my breath waiting for Mr. Day to call me back. Like many of the rest of you Stockwell Day has known of my troubles ever since Harper was elected as his latest boss in 2004 when he sat in the 37th Parliament
In the meantime in answer to Andrew Kyrstal's very dumb question on the radio just now.,methinks I should inform the NHL dudes that are being prosecuted by corrupt Yankees how I can help them.I know Andrew Kystral and all the Rogers dudes never will. What the New Jersey Dudes are up to right now is merely a case of the big bad pot calling a minor little kettle black to me and Andrew Kyrtal knows it too. Just like the Lord Conrad Black versus FitzGerald matter in Chicago everybody is trying to play dumb and it was to funny that Peter C. Newman apologized after I sent his lawyers some of my stuff..
Tell me something honestly if any you can find it in your soul to do so. Do you really think that the Conservatives thought that I didn't notice that Mulroney's right hand man Dereck Burney set up your Cabinet or that Michael Fortier was not a partner in his law firm?

RE: Rampant Public Corruption in Canada and the USA
Hey,
Now that Paul Martin has finally set the date for his confidence vote, methinks its time to pack my bags and head for home. I must raise some serious political hell in the Maritimes before the Commonwealth of Massachusetts does its worst to bankrupt my wife and put my kids on the street before I can expose the rampant public corruption. This is also a very good day to prove within the USA that we are well aware of each other and of my concerns and allegations in order to stress test the integrity of the US Mail. It and the Canada Post have failed me big time in recent years particularly just before the Yankees falsely imprisoned me last year for the benefit of George W. Bush, John Kerry and Paul Martin to name a few. I have no doubt whatsoever each of you dudes know more about me than I do about you. However that does not mean that I have not studied each of you a lot more than the ordinary layman. Just so we are clear, I have no respect for any of you. I know that all of you are as crooked as Chief Mearn, his cops and the lawyers who are coming into our home tomorrow without a warrant. This mail should prove your malice and willingness to support crime and public corruption.
Pursuant to my many emails, phone calls and faxes etc., you will find enclosed as promised exactly the same material I served upon the Solicitor Generals Teddy Olson and landslide Annie McLellan last year before I ran for Parliament last year. The CD of the copy of wiretap tape # 139 is served upon you as officers of the court and FBI Agents in order that it may be properly investigated. Franky got this stuff and more last year. The FBI got even more the year before. Perhaps they should go find the original tapes that the Suffolk County District Attorney and Special Agent in Charge Ken Kaiser have been playing dumb about for far too long. This material was good enough to impeach George W. Bush last year and cause many people to quit or lose their jobs. It is every bit as valuable today and you all know it. Ask the many people whose names can be found within these documents or Franky Boy or Claude Richer, Allan Rock’s lawyer buddy in the RCMP about this stuff before you call me a liar. As you all know I am out of jail on bail pending my upcoming criminal trial in front of a jury of my peers. I have the right to remain silent in the USA. I will employ different rights in Canada and say a lot.
What I choose to say while stumping for a seat in Parliament in Canada is of my concern not yours. If you dudes do your jobs here and I act ethically and legally up home with luck the world will be far better off in short order. I have already checked the rules with the people working for Elections Canada. We agree it is perfectly legal for an innocent man to run for Parliament while being prosecuted with false charges in the wrong jurisdiction and venue in the USA. Everybody knows I can secure my personal freedom quicker in a political forum in Canada rather than argue crooked judges in the USA. They have already imprisoned me on bull**** charges without even reading me my rights or telling me why I was in jail. The crooks are not going to have a sudden fit of ethical behavior now without it becoming a matter of political will. We all know it is high time for a change, the sooner the better for the Maritimes as well as the rest of the world. What better politician to argue with than a right wing lawyer named Rob Moore?
As you all no doubt know I have been talking to many people within the UN and have sent many much of my stuff. You all must have laughed as hard as I did when the Cubans were afraid to talk about my stuff. I must agree with George Bush about one thing. The UN is certainly in need of an overhaul. Yet we all know that nasty dudes like Maurice Strong’s buddy, Paul A. Volcker, the Former North American Chairman of the Trilateral Commission and Karl Rove’s puppet, John Bolton are just going to make matters worse. The same holds true with the turncoat Robert C. Pozen. He now offers advice to Bush on how to fix Social Security simply because I sent him running for cover with my Putnam Investment concerns and the malevolent media control of Global Corporations. Feel free to argue me or act ethically. You choose. I don’t care. Franky Boy knows he is way past too late. I am just rubbing his nose it before I talk a lot about him and his failure to uphold the public trust in our old stomping grounds up home. I can’t help but wonder how he explained his “Harper is a lapdog for Bush” dogma to Karl Rove and his nasty cohorts. I suspect it was an allowed comment from an insider of the Carlyle Group. Don’t you? We all know Stephen Harper would never fit in that group. He is as dumb as a post. All of his successes playing at politicking have just been a matter of luck and playing on the PC and Liberal scandals. Harper is kinda scary to me. He has a truly awful agenda in store for all Canadians like evil old T. Alex Hickman and Johnny Crosbie did for our Newfys.
Sometimes less is more. So in conclusion I will just quote former Inspector General of the DHS Clark Kent Irwin and simply say it would have benefited all if he had taken his own advice way back in November of 2003 when he had an important job.
POGO: “Any advice for your fellow public servants?”
Irwin: “Well, just do your job and let the political chips fall where they may. Unless you’re willing to do that, it seems to me you shouldn’t take the job in the first place.” What say you?

So charlie what papers did he ask you to deliver to brad Green?

Hey David Amos you complain about Chucky's pictures. He posts many pictures of himself so you fall in love with him. He really likes you.

Chucky really needs you.

I am impressed with Chucky's newfound sense of ethics the blog still stands this morning. If anyone would like to view the material and listen to a copy of a wiretap tape that Chucky and his buddy Vaughn are so afraid of all they have to do is call me and meet me in public somewhere before I leave Fredericton. I am sitting in town right now and trying to write my first complaint to file in Federal Court ASAP. Here is my cell number again 506 434 1379

Oh ye critics with no names why not pick up the phone tomorrow and call your Ombudsman and Chucky's buddy Bernie Richard mention my name and ask him whether or not he received this email on August 11th, 2004 at 3.11 pm two weeks before he met my family in his office. Then if you grow up and get a name and an emaiul address watch me prove to you I am no friend of Charles Leblanc


Hey Bernard
Thanks for your response though. I didn't believe you on the phone the instant that you tried to make an issue about not receiving the email to Wayne Steeves. I figured that you were covering for Brad Green because that would mean that you knew the CISNB was involved. I laughed when you repeated it in the email. Do you think me dumb?The Fredericton PD guard the legislature correct? Ask Sgt. Kelly or Chief Carlisle if they had jurisdiction over me when they threw me out. The Crown always has jurisdiction over a Canadian citizen particularly when he is on native soil. I figured out it was Dan that threw mw out. He should have taken the stuff in the yard just as soon as he affirmed that he and the cops had jurisdiction over me as he ordered me away from the legislative building. They did watch me go into 710 Queen St to serve TJ Burke and come out without the stuff. They know I did it. Over Two hundred people watched me serve Leroy.Armstrong once he stuck his nose in my affairs. Anne McLellan and Brad Green both suggested that I give this stuff to cops that claim jurisdiction. Go argue Bruce Noble. .I don't need any luck Uncle Franky has been dead for two months even though no one has notified my wife I know it. Watch me turn the worm on the Secret Service, the FBI and the RCMP
There is no way you could have known about Connie Fogal without getting Wayne Steeves' email as well. He should have sent the CISNB out to do their job by now. Obviously that is not the case. Maybe Elizabeth Weir will have more luck making you understand. As for me I simply don't trust you. I will be calling you to court. We can argue about integrity and jurisdiction there. In the mean time perhaps you should go find Leroy Armstrong or T J Burke or Brad Green or Premier Lord or Bruce Noble and ask to see the documents and the copy of the wiretape tape I sent them before I compel you to argue about them with me. There is another fella running around Fredericton with the same stuff. His name is Vaughn Barnett. If the politicians won't talk to you, maybe he will. his number is 457-4559 But he is likely out in the front yard protesting something. I don't trust him either because he and Charles Leblanc are buddies and I know he is a liar.

Vaughn did you get my material as Leblanc claims? You are the third guy he says he gave it to. If not I know I will be the last. I have had enough of him and his funny ways at my expense. He whined and complained that he had no computer so I gave him one. But he failed to even say Thanks. Now the liar wants people to buy him a Bull Horn so he can bother more people with his Bullshit. Well Fredericton has already met a real legal and social activist and i did it all without a whisper or any press coverage. Soon Ottawa will receive the same stuff and much much more before I return to the USA to argue the bastards pulling the strings up here in our old houses. The folks working there seem to care more what language the liars are speaking in rather than what they are actually saying. Charles LeBlanc spoke with a forked tongue when he claimed his Scottish heritage. He made my blood boil and my ancestors bones rattle when he went on and on about his roots. First the frenchy wants his flag on the government houses then he wants to wave it wearing our kilts? I am of the Keith Clan and founded my own. My ancestors were fine and noble warriors. Read their motto on the beer bottle Chucky and tell me if you believe it or not. Rest assured I do. Neither my Septs nor I would accept such a man as Charles Leblanc as a trusted friend.
Anonymous said...
David,

Yes, Charles gave me the material - although I must admit that I was not able to make much sense of it. Because of that, and because it appears to be out of my area of expertise, I doubt that I can help you very much. Also, unfortunately, your clash with Charles, and your low opinion of him (which I feel is unwarranted) has created a conflict of interests, as Charles is a friend of mine and a fellow activist. Since I doubt I can assist you much anyway, perhaps that doesn't matter. In any event, good luck with your cause.

I never told you that I would give those papers to any MLA's. Why the hell do I want to be involded in your issues anyway.

I got enough on my own plate.

Ok...you got a little blog because a good supporter of this blog asked me to let you post your views.

Don't blow it!!!!

Is you wish to smear and used bad words? I'll delete the whole blog.

Try to be nice. Not too many websites allowso you to post your views so be nice in here.....

Watch the language....is not??? Well? Why don't you start a new blog????

I really don't understand your point of view.

All the activists are trying to bring important issues to the public and you wish to condenm the same people.

Why burn all those bridges?

Oh well c'est la vie.....
Anonymous said...
Lets get this straight Chucky so there is no misunderstanding. You only allowed my words to stand this time around because other people read them and asked you to? Hmmm some ethics EH?

As for guts not only is my belly bigger than you my balls are as big as basketballs compared to yours. I ain't afraid of Count Peter Hans Klovenbach so why would I be afraid of you? You and your wannbe lawyer friend know full well I have been trying to impeach George W. Bush byway of the courts since 2002. Long before that nonsense in Iraq began. You hate me because if you had even glanced at the papers you just confessed you read then you know I sued Cardinal Law and caused him to quit his job on Dec 13th, 2002. It had nothing to do with child abuse like the media claims. It was merely filthy lucre that is all. Well my wife's cousin the exbanker turned priest Robert T. Kickham is still around around and cooking the books for the brand new Cardinal in Beantown. You know the dude in named O'Malley.

Furthmore Chucky you offer no argument to anything I state other than lie about not promising to serve Brad Green or falsely claiming that the computer I gave you was no good? The best you can is make jokes or critize my choice of words whilst I point out your serious lack of integrity?

In my law books it is not illegal to have poor manners or use the words I have employed thus far(as of yet anyway) I believe it falls under something that can be found in the Charter

However to slander someone and tell ouright lies about them for one's own gain is more than offensive. I have been falsely imprisoned because of the perjury of people like you who choose to support public corruption for their own gain. Methinks I should seek relief in court in fredericton particularly when I can prove it. Furthermore you know you have told several lies within the very blog.

I will wager if I posted something that you can never refute this blog will evporate immediately. Perhaps I should seal its fate and let your friends wonder why you erased me so quickly after I busted you in front of everybody. Never fear though I saved this blog in its entirety already. However you really should check you email and press print on the tif file that I just sent you and yoy hard copy of the proof that I keep wonderful records. Some of your buddies and adversaries may be reading it already. At the end of the day you may realize that I just may turn out to be the honest man that you ever met.

Subject: Fwd: Sue me Eddy Baby I double Dog Dare Ya I telling Lord Black on you


Everybody loves a mystery. A lot of folks were no doubt wondering why the big talking old fart named Petey Newman apologized to Lord Conrad Black not long after he and Mikey Levine laughed off his lawsuit at the big party in Toronto. Didn't it seem strange to anyone that the Tory's law firm wrote the crooked old Lord a fat cheque as well? It seems that the Torys, a dude named Mr. Moate, Levine, Greenspan, Newman and I may be the only ones to know the true reason why and I am the only one who will tell the tale. Here is your clue see if you can figure it out. I know of two Maritimers who will never have a hope in hell of figuring it out because they do not have two clues between them and if the did they would not know what to do with them. One dude everybody calls Tanker and the other I call Frenchie. They know who they are do you

Bingo You Mr. Cleveland Allaby win the cake baked by Bernie Lord.

Cya'll in Court . Thanks for finally responding to me. Your timing is perfect. One hour before or so before the 39th Parliament begins and just in time before I polish off my first complaint to file in Federal court in Fredericton. Was it done so quickly after I blogged my letter to you in Chucky LeBlanc's web page? Did the gossip about my blogging in his website reach you first thing this morning? In my book you are as dumb as the Frenchie is. Wise or dumb I will call you as a witness to testify in Federal Court before I get around to suing you. Perhaps your lawyer and I should talk now. Hostile or not you will make an important witness not only on because of your lawsuits concernining Native Aboriginal matters (Remember Barry Bachrach represents me in the USA right now) but more importantly because Bernie Lord paid you a lot of money years ago to study the Justice Dept. (Wasn't it 112,000 grand or so?)
Obviously Cleveland you are no wiser than Eddy Greenspan. Clearly you think your status as a well known lawyer allows you not only to ignore and not uphold the law but break it if you wish. Should you have contacted the RCMP as soon as you listened the the CD I provided you with. Guess what I told them you got it already. My next calls are to the General Counsel of the SIRC and the old lawyer who represent the following folks. He has played dumb with me for way past to long.

Cleveland did you really think your email will scare me off? Look how fast I bounced it back and forwarded it to many others. When a man has been diligently attempting to impeach George W. Bush for over three years despite the attacks from crooked Feds etc nothing scares him anymore. A threat of litigation coming from the email box of a lawyer into mine is like manna from heaven to me. Didn't I slam Eddy Greenspan the same way? Man you are dumb if you though that I would not do the same thing with you. You just proved for me that every body else got my email and hard copy too. you asgin the same question I asked you on February 23rd. Whois your god damned lawyer maybe I know him already. If not tell him he has a fool for a client. Will ya?

Tell me honestly, Cleveland if you can find it in your your soul to do so. Why Didn't you sue Bernie Lord as you threatened to do particularly after you and I talked the day before I gave my material to your buddy Tom Young and the New Brunswick Securities Commission? I heard of no apology from him and I laughed when I saw Tanker being trundled down to the Speakers chair arm in arm with two crooks. I figured another backroom deal went down and Tanker needed a smarter lawyer because I had heard nothing from you and I made certain that you knew the score with Hard Copy of my material before that shit went down. Something definitely smells rotten in New Brunswick EH?

What, specifically, are all these people being sued for? You rant and rave and nobody can make heads or tails out of what you are talking about.

We know you ran for office. We know that you try to impeach Bush (and anybody who does that certainly gets good marks from me!) We know that for some reason they held you in jail? Is that correct?

I'm assuming its under the new terrorism laws, since you say they wouldn't let you see evidence. That also is not surprising the way the US is functioning.

But what are all the lawsuits about? There is something about wiretap evidence that for some reason you are sending to canadian politicians and lawyers..why is that?

What exactly are all these law firms doing? If they are crooked, then specifically what evidence do you have? That lawyers are crooks also doesn't surprise most people, I"m mostly surprised we continue to elect so many of them.

But if you could explain point by point what the grievances are against these people, then people may understand. Perhaps you don't care and just want to let off steam, that's fine too, that's what blogs are for. However, many people would like to know what you are suing these people for?
Anonymous said...
Good day to ye with no name. thanks for the question. Methinks by your questions you must be Vaughn.I stated the reason for my first lawsuit clearly live on CTV news to that Murphy character at suppertime just before I was allowed to debate Andy Scot in Oromocto.
My first lawsuit will be to seek relief for the offense against my rights under the Charter because I was falsely imprisoned without being charged, held without bail and it was all done without even being read my rights. Then I was denied my right to a trial after met the Canadian Consulate in jailand came screaming out. I had tried to remove the matter to the proper jurisdiction and venue in order to prove the malicious prosecution to no avail. the bastarsds in the USA will never give a jury of my peers and Federal Court in Canada does not employ a jury. Thus I must make my issues well known locally before I file so that the Judges will not dismiss my complaints so easily as they have done in the past. Give me a call if you are not Vaughn and I will meet you show you the evidence.

So you are suing the canadian government for being held in jail in the US? Is that right, or were you held in Canada? How does that even work?

Why go on a lengthy rant to 'test' Charles? Take a break if your manners are slipping. Having your messages deleted on the last place your story can be told hardly seems helpful.

"Then I was denied my right to a trial after met the Canadian Consulate in jailand came screaming out"

That makes no sense whatsoever. People don't need long rants, they need clarity. You are suing the canadian government because they refused to help you while in US custody, is that correct?

Well, that makes some sense anyway. So how are these New Brunswick lawyers involved? Are you saying that none of them will represent you or what? You are sending them this wiretap evidence for what reason? If it's federal court why are you even in New Brunswick, all the lawyers in this province are idiots and irving lackeys. Why not go to Toronto where there are at least some civil liberties lawyers.

The trouble is, I don't know of any legal grounds that 'forces' the canadian government to intervene in a foreign country's legal system. If somebody plants coke on you in columbia and you get caught, then plead with canada to help you out, you'll be out of luck.

Under the charter canadians have fewer rights than americans. Our 'terror laws' are the mirror image of the US's, but never even had moranda rights or anything ike that. In Canada, you are simply f&&&&& if you cross the state, as any native, environmentalist, protestor, or civil rights attorney will tell you.

I don't know of a single case where somebody successfully sued, even David Milgaard was given a settlement since it was dragging out so long. Natives have tried suing for years.

However, it's easy to talk from the outside. But if Ernst Zundel couldn't sue for being held for almost a decade with no charges against him in Canada, I don't see how far a lawsuit against Canada for not intervening in a foreign country will go.

If because a man lives somewhere else for awhile makes him a man of that place then how come a Newfy is always a Newfy everywhere he goes.

Nobody called you a yankee, but starting threatening people is sure to get you deleted, as well as guaranteeing no court in the country will give you the time of day except to prosecute. As was said, there is virtually zero chance of suing the government for your claim. At least Charles is being constructive and taking it to the human rights people and doing his part to get more rights for new brunswickers. But good luck getting to court.

I see that you are watching Vaughn. Spoken just like a lawyer you wish to be. "Hunt you down" is an expression. But it brought you out of the woods didn't it. Perhaps you should read your next email real slow. Before I go I must ask you are you trying to intimadate me by making false allegations against me?

Hmm maybe I will ask Vaughn under oath in court someday why he has formed that opinion of my pending lawsuit. Clearly he knows more of my matters than what I or Chucky have given him. I am still human don't you know. Fredericton does not have the only courts in this old World. I except them crooked judges here to try hard to dismiss my matters. Why to you think I am raising hell first. If anyone should understand what I am up to it is an actvist.

You certainly ain't Bruce Noble because he represents the Fredericton PD if you choose to send them to hassle me. He already know I have a few bones to pick with him in court. I would welcome more false charges. Here is the obvious question. Are you Chucky's buddy Vaughn or are you not? If not who are you?

I have noticed that Chucky hit counter has picked up a little speed. His count is starting to appraoch Byron Prior's website. Here it is if anybody cares. I know I do. Byron is human too and he has been far more offended than Chucky ever was.

I was bored waiting and check to see if it clicked over a big milestone for him.

80 grand was how many viewers he had when the MP Billy Matthews intmadted him into taking it down.

Chucky is appraoching that number for the first time. this is Byron second kick at the can of worms of injustice.

I don't know who Vaughn is, I was interested in the story because I couldn't decide whether you were crazy or just very angry. I still don't know.

I know there are constructive uses for anger, Charles has accomplished quite a bit with his. I'd hate to see ANYBODY spend all that time and energy in a fruitless cause such as trying to sue the government. The mention of being an 'activist' was heartening. Charles has been an activist and he and Tim Smith have almost single handedly got the rights of tenants on the map, and soon an injustice there 'may' be rectified, one that is a hundred years overdue.

Yet he and Tim accomplished it in less than two months, albeit with the help of a byelection.

Being imprisoned in the states is no crime in my book, their entire federal system is an illegal entity. Manlin Chee has been a public defender for over twenty years, won many awards, and now sits in jail because she sat on a panel that argued against the patriot act. While Canada isn't MUCH better, it is SOME better.

But like I said, the courts will give no recourse, as the courts have clearly stated that Canada's own terrorist act does not infringe on civil liberties. Anybody who thinks highly of civil liberties in Canada just needs to remember Oka, or Quebec, where thousands of french were rounded up without charge just so Trudeau could pretend to be macho.


There are lots of organizations that are attacking these things, and personally I think its a shame that those who have virtually identical claims against the government can't seem to get along. If there were a dozen Charles Leblanc's in the province we could literally turn the province upside down. YOu seem to have the passion, but maybe a little too much, as often you are incomprehensible. That's unfortunate because those who are victims of the aggression of the state are those whose stories most deserve to be heard.

Just a recommendation, but when you mentioned all those lawyers then you definitely got my interest. These guys work in a shroud of secrecy and somebody with the guts to air their dirty laundry would definitely accomplish more good with political activism than with lawsuits. Courts were designed to put undesirables in jail, not mete out justice. Hell, New Brunswick doesn't even allow class action lawsuits!

I don't always agree with Charles, and often his views and how he states them make me cringe, but I'm glad that he does what he does, and NB is a province that NEEDS more 'activism'. I'd just suggest doing it in a way that's guaranteed to get the most results. But that's just my opinion-not Vaughns.

What planet in cyber space are you from oh yet with noname who claims not to be Vaughn? The first thing you should do when you touch down on mother earth is get a name. Then learn to read BEFORE you write. I ain't no god damned activist. GET IT? However I am a very fierce political animal. GET IT? I am just a very pissed off Maritimer with way bigger balls than you.

Some activist you are with only half a mind to say something like this to me. Go to jail sometime in Yankee Doodleland and then come back home and tell me that crap again.
"Being imprisoned in the states is no crime in my book,"

After you figure out the nonsense that you just wrote in support of a liar. Why not get an email account and a telephone too and learn how to use them BEFORE you attack a man who understands more about what you are yapping about than you could ever dream. I have no doubt that you are clever and you may be well on your way to being just another lawyer but you cannot learn to be ethical in any law school. You must be born with the genes. It seems that you and Chucky are a couple bricks shy of that load.

On the other hand in reading some of your words about what Chucky has done I think you may be the political science student at the homeless shelter that the lady that was on Tom Young's show spoke of when I called her afterwards. Either way I don't care. i don't want to know you.
Ask you buddy Chucky sometime to share his emails from me with you if you are truly are not his buddy Vaughn. Better yet go on a mission with your mouse and go through Chuckys many blogs and figure out who he is for yourself. Then ask Vaughn if you can view the hard copy of the material he admited having BEFORE I was falsely imprisoned in 2004. Activists have a lot to learn about listening to folks before there is trouble. It seems they allow things to happen just so they can protest about it later. I was challenging the FBI etc and arguing crooked US Attorneys about other matters in Federal Court in Boston months before that nonsense in Iraq began. whereas you seem to have a love of lucre Vaughn should tell ya that in two matters I was awarded judgements by default for 32 million bucks and I laughed and told them to shove it up their arse because the judgement came from the wrong court. It is all about jurisdiction venue and justice. I cannot demand integrity of others without proving my own first. When the crooked lawyers filed motions to remove the defaults and file their answers late I did not oppose them. It so shocked the hell out of the Yankee bastards they were not long sending the Secret Service to try to take a man away who would rather argue the awful truth than take a pay off.
In my book false imprisonment is definite illegal and when I look at your writing and Chuckys I cannot forget what I was taught. There are NO degrees of honesty either you are or your are NOT. Go kiss Chucky good night. Will ya? I have had enough of both of you oh ye who may be Vaughn. I so not feel sorry that I do not believe you.(Damned for a little Damned for at lot)

One last ting before I sign off that I forgot to say. Yankee lawyers swear an oath before the Bar before they are allowed to practice law for a fee. Part of it goes something like this. "I will not delay or deny any man for lucre or malice" the politicians and lawyers I am arguing ignore their oath for lucre which far easier to understand than the malice you and Chucky wish against me. i tried to help Chucky and even gave him a computer because he whined that he did not have one. The only thing I asked in return was for him to go to Brad Green's office and give him a pile of documents and one CD in an unsealed envelope so that every one could see that there was nothing harmful inside.The liar claimed many things and slammed me six ways to Sunday while blocking my protests. I was getting even on April fools and draging him into a place where most lawyer fear to go. An ethical argument in public view. Like Tom Young on the radio he keep threatening to press the delete button when things were not going his way. Charles Leblanc is all about Charles LeBlanc no less no more.

Poilievre tells Trudeau to 'butt out' of New Brunswick's policy on LGBTQ students

'Let parents raise kids,' he said while addressing controversial changes to policy on LGBTQ students

Federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Tuesday the prime minister has no business weighing in on New Brunswick's Policy 713 on LGBTQ students and called on Justin Trudeau to "let parents raise kids."

The policy was designed to protect LGBTQ students in schools. But earlier this year, New Brunswick's Progressive Conservative government made changes that, in part, mean teachers are no longer required to use the chosen names and pronouns of transgender or non-binary students under 16 without parental consent.

At a Tuesday event in Moncton critiquing carbon taxation and the cost of living, Poilievre was asked whether he stands with New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs on the changes to Policy 713. He called it "provincial policy."

"I know that Justin Trudeau has butted into that. The prime minister has no business in decisions that should rest with provinces and parents," he said.

"So my message to Justin Trudeau is, 'Butt out and let provinces run schools and let parents raise kids.'"

Poilievre: PM has 'no business' in N.B. gender identity policy debate

Duration 0:28
Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre says the prime minister needs to let 'provinces run schools and parents raise children.'

Turmoil in Higgs government

The changes to Policy 713 prompted backlash from within Higgs's own cabinet, including numerous resignations by ministers who objected to his leadership style. On Tuesday morning, Higgs shuffled his cabinet to replace two ministers who voted against him on a resolution calling for more consultations on the school gender-identity policy.

Trudeau weighed in on the policy at a Pride event in Toronto about three weeks ago.

"Right now," he said, "trans kids in New Brunswick are being told they don't have the right to be their true selves, that they need to ask permission.

"Trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians. We need to stand against this."

In a tweet, federal Labour Minister Seamus O'Regan attacked Poilievre for his comments on Tuesday. He said not all parents are accepting and not all homes are safe, so schools should be both.

Higgs again defended the policy change during an interview with CBC's Power and Politics on Tuesday. He said "parents need to have a voice" and insisted he's taking "a balanced approach."

He said he's seeing "a tremendous outpouring of support" for his position.

"Nationally, people are saying, 'Why wouldn't parents play a role?'" he said.

Blaine Higgs drops 2 rebellious ministers in cabinet shuffle

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr are out, replaced by newcomers

Premier Blaine Higgs has reasserted his authority over his fractured Progressive Conservative government by dumping two ministers who voted against him on the contentious issue of New Brunswick's school gender-identity policy.

In a cabinet shuffle Tuesday, Higgs dropped Local Government Minister Daniel Allain and Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Jeff Carr, sending them to the backbenches.

He made it clear that their breaking ranks in a key vote on Policy 713 had cost them their jobs, violating the principle of cabinet solidarity.

"To go outside of that and to basically feel that it doesn't matter if you're in cabinet or not — it does matter. And to not address the situation is really putting the government in a very vulnerable position," Higgs told reporters after a 9 a.m. swearing-in.

"We have to respect the parliamentary system that we're in, the sanctity of cabinet, and the fact we'll have very frank and open discussion in cabinet or in caucus, but in cabinet you have to have solidarity."

The new additions to cabinet are Carleton-York MLA Richard Ames, Moncton South MLA Greg Turner and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus. All are first-timers as ministers. 

Rejoining cabinet are Moncton Southwest MLA Sherry Wilson, who was in cabinet from 2018 to 2020, and Oromocto-Lincoln-Fredericton MLA Mary Wilson, who was shuffled out of cabinet last fall.

Allain and Carr make four ministers no longer in Higgs's cabinet.

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr are out of New Brunswick’s cabinet. Replacing them are new additions including Carleton-York MLA Richard Ames, Moncton South MLA Greg Turner and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus.

The two other ministers, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, resigned, both of them citing Higgs's leadership style that they said was at odds with the values and traditions of the PC party.

All four voted with the opposition parties on June 15 to help pass a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

Higgs claimed that day that the vote was not whipped, but he said Tuesday "I never made it a free vote, either."

CBC News Explains: How did the New Brunswick government change Policy 713?

Duration 2:19
New Brunswick's Department of Education made several changes to a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students, affecting sections on self-identification, extracurricular activities and washrooms.

In the past, the premier has often tolerated minor acts of dissent in his cabinet and caucus, referring to it as "a diverse group" that has pushed the envelope the same way he did when he was the outspoken finance minister in the Alward government. 

But on Policy 713 Higgs has signalled he was losing patience.

"To take a position against the government in the legislature, voting in the legislature, is very significant," he said Tuesday.

Carr and Allain both said Tuesday they understood from Higgs that it was to be a free vote. 

"Obviously the definition of free vote differs from one individual to another," Allain said.

Both former ministers said they were questioning their futures in politics.

Allain said he was pondering whether "maybe there are other ways" for him to serve, given the party "is in a crisis. … I'm asking the question: is it worth the fight?"

He wouldn't say whether he supports the push for a review of Higgs's leadership.

Carr said he won't run in next year's provincial election if the premier is still leading the party.

He said he was disappointed but understands why he was removed from cabinet and did not regret his vote on Policy 713.

Carr insisted that the opposition motion called for exactly what the PC caucus had been promised by Higgs — a role for the child and youth advocate in determining if the policy changes were legally sound. 

He also wished the new ministers well in Higgs's cabinet.

"If they feel satisfied with that type of leadership and governing, then that's okay. I don't judge them for that." 

Higgs told reporters after the shuffle he'll try to reach out to unhappy grassroots members of the Progressive Conservative party, some of whom are organizing to remove him as leader

"I think we have some building to do, there's no question of that," Higgs said.

"I need to play a key role in that, reaching out to the membership, the executives throughout the province, and be able to sit down and have some very good discussions." 

New ministers proclaim support for premier

"I can guarantee you he doesn't have to ask me" about my loyalty, Mary Wilson told reporters.

"I have no problem with our premier. I think he does a great job."

Ames proclaimed that "it's a new day, a new team, new cabinet, great caucus — we're moving forward."

And Turner, who chaired the PC caucus until Tuesday, rejected the claims by Shephard and Holder that Higgs didn't listen to his MLAs.

CBC Explains: How does a leadership review work?

Duration 1:19
The CBC’s Jacques Poitras walks us through each step the PC party must go through to remove a sitting premier.

"In any caucus meetings I was in, absolutely. I was in all the caucus meetings. Absolutely," he said.

"Like any team, there has been a leader and there has been people who support the leader," Turner said. "I have full confidence in his leadership abilities for sure. There's no question about that."

Ames replaces Carr as minister of transportation and infrastructure, while Saint John East MLA Glen Savoie gets a promotion by taking over Allain's local government portfolio.

Allain was the senior francophone minister in government, representing a language community with few MLAs in the PC caucus.

"He'll continue to be a valued member in our caucus and I'm sure he'll continue to represent the community," Higgs said.

Carr, Allain, Shephard, Holder and two other ministers, Arlene Dunn and Jill Green, signed a statement earlier this month complaining about a lack of transparency and process in the government's review of Policy 713.

Dunn, who missed the June 15 vote but said the next day she'd have voted with the opposition, remains in cabinet and takes over the post-secondary education, labour and training duties that Holder held.

Asked why he kept her in cabinet, Higgs told reporters that "I know if someone had been there, they might have done differently … but the fact is they weren't there and they didn't stand against the government."

Dunn told reporters after the cabinet shuffle that her issue had been with Policy 713.

"I didn't think we should have touched that. I think we should have stayed away from it," she said.

But beyond that, "I do have confidence in the leadership of the premier."

Green also missed the June 15 vote and later said she didn't know how she would have voted. 

She's been promoted to minister of social development and also holds on to the housing file, with her provincial housing strategy expected to be released this week.

Opposition Liberal leader Susan Holt did not mention the internal PC party turmoil in a tweet congratulating the new ministers.

"Our team is ready to work with you to address the issues most important to New Brunswickers," she wrote.

New minister responsibilities:

  • Richard Ames — Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, former backbencher.
  • Jill Green — Minister of Social Development and responsible for Economic and Social Inclusion Corporation; still responsible for New Brunswick Housing Corporation,but no longer the Minister of Service New Brunswick. 
  • Arlene Dunn — Minister of Post-Secondary Education, Training and Labour, remains Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Minister responsible for Immigration; no longer responsible for Economic Development and Small Business and Opportunities N.B.
  • Greg Turner — Minister responsible for Opportunities N.B. and Economic Development and Small Business, former backbencher.
  • Glen Savoie — Minister of Local Government and still responsible for la Francophonie.
  • Mary Wilson — Minister of Service New Brunswick and responsible for Military Affairs; former backbencher shuffled out of cabinet last fall.
  • Tammy Scott-Wallace — remains Minister of Tourism, Heritage and Culture, but no longer Minister responsible for Women's Equality.
  • Sherry Wilson — Minister responsible for Women's Equality and for Addictions and Mental Health Services; minister from 2018 to 2020 who became a backbencher after the 2020 election.
  • Kathy Bockus — Minister responsible for Seniors, former backbencher.

Reply to David Amos
If there is a leadership convention than that is a distinct possibility but there has to be a vacancy at the top first and with 15 months to go before an election, there is no way to dispose of the current leader, hold a leadership race and convention and have the new leader prepared to fight an election and win. Danny Boy is not stupid enough to cut off his nose to spite his face. He's a much smarter man than I am (I think), if I can read the timeline, I'm sure he can as well. He would be in much better shape to wait till after the Sept 2024 election and step into a leadership race at that point if a vacancy at the top occurs.

No, only the party can dump the leader. That is the big difference between Britian's Westminster System and Canada's. Britian's Caucus does elect the leader and can dump them at any time. In Canada all Party Members have the right to vote for their leader and under the rules can bit them out as well. I definitely like our rules better.

That was then and this is now. Even Poitras now seems to understand who Higgs is. Half the PCs in the province (over half of the local riding presidents have asked him to resign) will stay home if an election is called. That is an opinion and not fact.

They will be bolstered by the fact that Susan Holt and the Liberals have not given any reason for them or us to think she/they will govern much differently then the PCs. In that they will keep the fee cuts for billionaires on crown land, and tax free living for the Irving enterprises.

NBers should make sure that neither the Liberals or the Conservatives get a majority the next time we vote. Look what happens when we don't do that. The premier of the day begins to think that the province belongs to him/her and their advisors.

You’re right, the Liberals under Holt need to prove that they are not the Party of the past. They have to show NBers that the billionaires will finally lose power, that regular folks will not be footing the bills while watching our services collapse. Watching the Legislature (as little of it there is) there seems to be hope in some of these new Liberal MLAs and Leader. Now they have to start proving it’s for real, not something that disappears the minute they take power. NBs are fed up with that scenario.

And you’re absolutely right on the need for a Minority Government. Ross Wetmore said in the Legislature that for all his years (13) in Government, the 2018 Minority Government was the best he had worked in. He seemed very emotional about what has become of Government in NB.

Over half the party ridings are calling for a leadership review, that's a fact, and also shows significant disappointment within the party. At least a third of his Cabinet, at least until this move, was also in open rebellion against him. That certainly shows a significant level of disappointment within his own elected members.

Your provided "fact" is a vote that is only for his riding, not for him as leader. In Alberta Kenney's UPC got elected with a strong majority yet he was ousted by his party. What you've outlined as "fact" is basically the scenario that happened in Alberta.

I guess we'll see what happen with the next election. The ridings may be calling for a review, but are the actual voters calling for it? We dont really know 100%, we can estimate, poll etc, but we dont really know whats on every voters mind until election time.

Winning a democratically instituted voting system where you win the majority of votes should be enough evidence of the majority agreeing. Therefore its not an opinion, but a fact.

Higgs's job is to represent the views of the people who voted for him. If he caves, it will be a huge disappointment for those who voted for him. If necessary, he may need to call an election to prove this.

Reply to Andrew Martin
Again, voters vote for their MLA, the party votes for the leader. Even if voters want the conservatives to remain in power, it doesn't mean they want Higgs as their premier.

Same thing happened in Alberta with Kenney, and quite possibly will happen with Smith, and I'd even go so far as including the federal Liberals with Trudeau.

Higgs doesn't seem to have the support of his party and it could be completely irrelevant what the voters want. If the party wants him out, he'll be gone.

And if the voters wanted him running it and the party votes him out, then they may get voted out

It’s also a fact that the unvaccinated Pandemic Election Majority was won with 26% of eligible voters. This was after success in a Minority Government scenario with Higgs near the top in the approval rating polls. The opinion is that after receiving his Majority it seems that was the beginning of his missteps and downward trend, IMO.

Higgs accused of launching 'vicious' attack on PC critic during Saturday meeting

Former president tells premier to ‘get over it’ ahead of Tuesday cabinet shuffle

Two ministers, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, have resigned from his cabinet in the last two weeks over their concerns about his approach.

Higgs's spokesperson Nicolle Carlin told CBC News on Monday morning that the premier will shuffle his cabinet on Tuesday.

Two other ministers, Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr, joined Shephard and Holder in voting against the government on June 15.

PC arguments about Higgs are 'arduous, tumultuous and in the public,' minister says

Duration 1:10
Daniel Allain comments on an internal battle within New Brunswick's governing Progressive Conservative party. Premier Blaine Higgs has come under fire inside caucus and across the party.

Allain said Monday afternoon he hadn't been told yet if he'd still be a minister on Tuesday.

"There's a process," he said at a news conference in Grand Bouctouche. "We serve at the pleasure of the premier."

Allain and the three other ministers helped to pass an opposition Liberal motion calling for further consultations on the government's Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ+ students in schools.

CBC Explains: How does a leadership review work?

Duration 1:19
The CBC’s Jacques Poitras walks us through each step the PC party must go through to remove a sitting premier.

All four helped to pass an opposition Liberal motion calling for further consultations on the government's Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in schools.

That vote crystallized a growing discontent within the party that Shephard said goes far beyond just Policy 713.

Former party president Claude Williams said last week that there are letters from presidents of 26 PC riding associations asking for a leadership review — more than the 20 required to force the provincial council to vote on whether to hold a vote.

Higgs looks at 'path forward'

Williston said the letters weren't submitted at Saturday's meeting because the number continues to grow, with two more presidents signing on after the meeting because of the premier's behaviour.

Higgs said on Saturday that there was "a good frank open discussion here and I think we have a path forward."

Asked about Williams telling reporters he was disappointed in comments by the premier in the meeting, Higgs said his remarks were "about team building, it was about us working together and having good discussions internally." 

But Williston said Higgs's comments were "almost borderline shocking." 

WATCH | In May, Higgs called for a controversial review of Policy 713:

Duration 2:03
Higgs says schools should have to inform parents if a child under 16 wants to change their names or pronouns, and young children should not be exposed to drag queen storytimes.

He also said the premier's critics tried to introduce a motion to schedule a special meeting of the council before the fall to deal with the leadership review issue but were ruled out of order based on procedure.

"Some people in the party are trying to to rag the puck," he said.

PC party president Erika Hachey, who ran Saturday's meeting, said Monday morning she had no comment on Williston's description of the discussion.

Williston said Higgs claimed in the meeting he was blameless for the party's poor election showings in francophone New Brunswick, pointing the finger instead at what he called negative coverage in the French-language newspaper L'Acadie Nouvelle.

​A​re the days numbered for Blaine Higgs as leader of New Brunswick's PC party? ​Jeanne Armstrong spoke to two party members who say it's time for the Premier to take a final bow. ​John Williston, a regional vice-president with the party, and Brian Harquail, former PC party president and one of the people who signed the letter calling for Higgs to resign.

Former PC party president Brian Harquail, who did not attend the meeting, told Information Morning that if Higgs can't unite his caucus and his party, he doesn't deserve to be governing New Brunswick. 

"I was elected twice as president and we have a reputation of eating our young, and blaming somebody else for our own mistakes," he said.

"Well, it's time we took control and started to lead the party in the right direction."

'Things are going to escalate'

Harquail was one of four former presidents who signed a letter last week calling on Higgs to resign to avoid a divisive, drawn-out leadership review fight.

He scoffed at Higgs blaming negative media coverage for his lack of popularity in francophone New Brunswick.

"To attack the newspaper for doing their job is childish and shows a very, very strong lack of leadership," he said.

"Get over it, Blaine, because that's life and that's the way it is. And you wanted the job, so let's get on with it."

Williston said far from calming down, he believes that "things are going to escalate" in the party's internal battle. 

He said the premier will eventually have to realize that he can no longer govern and that an election would be a risk now because many PC members in local riding associations won't work for him as leader.

Alward appoints faithful to key positions

CBC News · Posted: Oct 14, 2010 6:49 AM ADT

New Brunswick Premier David Alward appointed Tory faithful to key deputy minister posts Thursday, reversing a vow to change the way in which appointments are made by the provincial government.

The appointments include Daniel Allain to the key position of president and chief executive officer of NB Liquor. Dana Clendenning, the Liberal-appointed president of the Crown corporation, left his position last week with a taxpayer-funded severance package.

Previous premiers Shawn Graham and Bernard Lord both selected party loyalists for the job, which pays between $150,000 and $175,000 per year.

What has Higgs done for renewables in NB?

2016 was the first year when there were more people employed in renewable energy worldwide than there were in oil and gas worldwide.

Since then the job growth in renewables has continued to grow. But Higgs head was firmly stuck in the oilsands and NB has lost out on huge, well-paid job growth opportunities in renewables. Time for him to go.

Reply to Fred Brewer  
Our total renewable capacity in 2018 stood at 30.6%, in 2023 it now stands at 40.4%. Conversely, our Oil and Diesel was at 35.2%, it is now 15.5%. Looks like that debt clock needs another adjustment.

We've had hints of this from Ottawa. One incident, about six yrs ago, that made it to a couple of papers, was the time when he jumped up on a desk and started screaming a profanity laden 10 min outburst at an MP who dared to voice what his constituents wanted.

This article is about internal party frictions. How is Trudeau acting like a Conservative? There is little comparable internal friction within the Liberal Party. Alberta's Premier is watching behind her back and Higgs seems to be now too, both conservatives. And of course we can imagine that there might still be a few real conservatives out there who might fundamentally disagree with the direction the federal party is headed.

I'm not sure who you are David Amos, but you and most of your follows do
not seem to understand the procedure spelled out in the constitution of
the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick for making a
leadership review happen. If and when these so called letters are
delivered to the president of the Party and the numbers meet the
criteria then and only then will the process begins. The first step of
this procedure could be referred to as "a shot across the bow". When you
read the constitution you will see that the process maybe aborted at the
next step if a 2/3 majority of the Provincial Council is not achieved.
After attending the meeting on Saturday, I'm not sure if a 2/3 majority
can be achieved. In the mean time, Premier Higgs will be working on
resolving the rifts in his caucus. We will see how that goes. He does
appear to be remorseful and sincerely interested in changing his
management style. He does recognize many of his mistakes and I guess
that would be the first step.

I also want to tell you that under no circumstances is Dominic Cardy or
Jody Carr spokesmen for the PC Party of New Brunswick. Even though they
are members of PCNB, both of these gentleman are in the political
wilderness and are only commenting to the media for their own self
interests, not the Party. Mr Cardy claims he is a member in good
standing of PCNB. Member yes, good standing NO. I have talked with many,
many members of the Party in the past year and only one admits to being
an ally of Mr Cardy.  I have no idea why the media flocks to him each
time there is a new development in New Brunswick politics. His opinion
has zero value to most people in the Province. If the media wanted to
renew their credibility they would stop interviewing him.

Toronto is hosting Pride celebrations this weekend, but it comes at a
time where advocates say trans people are being targeted and harmful
rhetoric is on the rise.

In New Brunswick, the provincial government's decision to change an
education policy on gender identity has caused significant controversy
and even turmoil within the government. The changes make it mandatory
for teachers to get parental consent before using a student's chosen
name and pronouns.

School psychologists as well as child welfare, education and human
rights experts have all come out against these changes.

Our question this week: Is Canada becoming more or less accepting of
LGBTQ rights? What conversations are you having?

Our Ask Me Anything segment this week features former Conservative
leader Erin O'Toole. O'Toole resigned his seat as an MP at the end of
the House of Commons' spring session this past Wednesday. What
questions do you have?

PC rebels say majority of riding presidents support ousting Higgs
 
 
 

Premier Higgs says he won't resign after calls for his removal

Higgs intends to stay on even after the resignations of 2 cabinet ministers

When asked what's next for him and the party, Higgs batted down any suggestion of stepping aside.

"It won't be a resignation," Higgs said.

The premier has been under pressure to step aside after changes to Policy 713 — a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students in schools — prompted the resignations of two cabinet ministers and letters from more than 20 riding presidents calling on Higgs to resign.

Higgs said there was no formal discussion at the meeting about a possible leadership review, but did say he wants to work with the party and his caucus to resolve any issues behind closed doors.

"I think we have a path forward here as we work through some of our issues," he said.

Claude Williams, a former president of the party who attended the meeting, said the reason there was no formal discussion about a leadership review is because the rules of the meeting made it impossible.

He also said he was disappointed in the premier's closing remarks to the meeting, but didn't elaborate further.

Support cloudy

The amount of support the premier has in caucus, and in the party, is up for debate.

On Wednesday, CBC News reported at least 22 riding presidents have written letters calling for a leadership review vote.

But Mark Paul-Elias, the president of the PC's Fredericton-Grand Lake Riding Association, said the majority of the party stands behind the premier.

While he admitted not everyone was supportive of Higgs — mentioning at least one person who walked out of the meeting — Paul-Elias maintained the premier has the party's support.

"You don't have a family that doesn't have the odd person who doesn't agree with what's going on. But the party is really united and we intend to stay united," he said.

 "The turmoil within New Brunswick's Progressive Conservative Party was deepening Friday morning as another minister quit Premier Blaine Higgs's cabinet and four former top party officials demanded the premier resign.

Portland-Simonds MLA Trevor Holder, the longest-serving MLA in the legislature, announced in an open letter he was quitting as minister of post-secondary education, training and labour.

"Under the leadership of Premier Higgs, caucus has been less about consensus and more about him getting his own way," Holder wrote.

Holder's letter was sent out just one hour after four past presidents of the party called on Higgs to resign immediately.

"We ask that you avoid a disruptive, public battle that could tear the party apart. We ask that you leave graciously," the letter says.

The letter is signed by Claude Williams, Lester Young, Brian Harquail and Jason Stephen, all former presidents of the New Brunswick party."

"The main accusation by his caucus critics is that he cuts them out of his decision-making process.

His 2020 push for health reforms — including the proposed closure of small hospital emergency departments — cost him his only francophone MLA at the time, Robert Gauvin.

Gauvin's father was the late Jean Gauvin, a longtime member of Richard Hatfield's cabinet who helped keep the embers of PC support flickering in Shippagan during the party's 12-year exile from power.

Jean Gauvin also stood by Hatfield when party rebels tried to remove him from the leadership in 1985 — so his son's move to the Liberals is another symbol of Higgs's break with party history. "

"Another francophone who backed Hatfield during that battle, Jean-Pierre Ouellet from Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston, is now part of the push to dump Higgs, arguing the premier is advancing ideas inimical to the PC Party.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's trying to implement a platform that was the CoR platform when he was campaigning for the CoR party in the 1980s," Ouellete said."

Reply to Kat Jo 
 A child’s gender identity has no impact on the “rearing” aspect of a parent. Their support, love, and attention should not be impacted by their gender identity.

That’s why in this one singular niche situation the parent should be left out, if the child specifically requests it.

Parents are still informed and involved in literally everything else.

Another N.B. cabinet minister quits as turmoil over Higgs's leadership deepens

Trevor Holder resigns not long after 4 former party presidents call for premier to leave

Portland-Simonds MLA Trevor Holder, the longest-serving MLA in the legislature, announced in an open letter he was quitting as minister of post-secondary education, training and labour.

"Under the leadership of Premier Higgs, caucus has been less about consensus and more about him getting his own way," Holder wrote.

Holder said he has tried many times to explain to the premier the importance of working more collaboratively but to no avail.

"While I have tried my best to continue to work to maintain the integrity of the caucus system, I have finally come to the conclusion that this is no longer possible."

He also rapped the premier for "his lack of empathy as well as his inability to listen to valid concerns from all members of his caucus." 

Holder was first elected in the 1999 election and has been a minister under three different PC premiers.

He said he plans to stay on as MLA for Portland-Simonds and called on party members to "build a thoughtful conservative movement in this province that brings people together rather than divide them."

Holder's letter was sent out just one hour after four past presidents of the party called on Higgs to resign immediately.

They wrote in their statement that Higgs has achieved a lot during his more than four years as premier but also lacks the ability to achieve "the delicate balance" required to govern New Brunswick.

"We ask that you avoid a disruptive, public battle that could tear the party apart. We ask that you leave graciously," the letter says.

"You have had some important successes as Premier of New Brunswick. But the moment now demands that you pass the baton and the PCNB reorient itself to face the future and move forward."

The letter is signed by Claude Williams, Lester Young, Brian Harquail and Jason Stephen, all former presidents of the New Brunswick party.

The four former presidents accused Higgs of trying to make the internal fight a fight about Policy 713, the policy on protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools that the government recently revised. 

But they said the problems run deeper and include the premier's attempts to replace French immersion and weaken district education councils and to eliminate elected members of regional health authority boards. 

"Policy 713 was just the tipping point in a long line of disrespect he has shown to our Party, its values and its traditions," they wrote.

Stephen said in an interview that as a party volunteer for more than three decades, it was hard for him to sign the letter.

But he believes the party's future is at stake, including in the next election in October 2024.

"This is going to turn into a very divisive program, I believe. That's why I'm asking him to retire and pass the torch. He can leave a legacy of doing some very good things. But that legacy will be different if he tries to carry a fractured party into the election."

Southwest Miramichi-Bay du Vin MLA Mike Dawson said he's "behind Blaine Higgs 100 per cent" and doesn't understand what Holder's resignation will accomplish.

Since he was elected in a byelection last year, Dawson said, he's been in the Premier's Office many times, discussing issues with Higgs.

"Instead of letting the pot simmer and boil over, you go into the office, you have the discussions and you come out of the office on a level playing field, and everyone understands where each other stands," he said.

Dawson also defended the premier's hands-on approach to governing, which former cabinet minister Dorothy Shephard and others have complained about. 

"Blaine Higgs is the boss of the PC party. He's the CEO," Dawson said.

In a note addressed to the premier, the social development minister said, ‘I can no longer remain in your cabinet.’

Holder's resignation follows that of Shephard, his Saint John colleague who quit last week after she, Holder, two other ministers and two backbench PC MLA defied Higgs during a vote in the legislature.

They joined with the opposition parties to pass a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713. 

Holder said in his letter he now has to do "some significant soul searching" after a 24-year career in the legislature. 

Critics of Higgs within the party have collected 26 letters from presidents of party riding presidents calling for a leadership review.

That's six more than the threshold under the party constitution for the PC provincial council to debate it at an upcoming meeting. 

It also represents a majority of the 49 riding organizations in the province. 

Earlier this week Higgs called the push for a review "a strategically planned political drama" that has been "a focus from a certain group for a few years now" and that was heightened by the Policy 713 debate.

On Thursday two PC caucus members, cabinet minister Réjean Savoie and backbench MLA Sherry Wilson, said they support Higgs staying on.

Wilson said PC MLAs who can't support his leadership "need to go and just retire, just get out of politics, if that's the way they think."

PC caucus members voice support for Higgs amid push for leadership review

Moncton Southwest MLA says rebels should quit politics if they don’t like premier’s approach

Moncton Southwest PC MLA Sherry Wilson says Higgs's record on fiscal management and improving health care is a strong one, and members of the PC caucus who don't like his leadership should quit.

"For the people who don't support our premier, and don't look at the good work and the big picture and what's best for the people we serve here in New Brunswick, I think maybe it's time for them to step away," she said.

Critics of Higgs within the party say they have gathered letters from 26 presidents of PC riding associations and 50 rank-and-file members overall — more than enough to start the process of seeking to remove Higgs.

Those letters were gathered over the last 10 days as a debate over Policy 713, on the protection of LGBTQ students in provincial schools, erupted at the legislature.

Four cabinet ministers and two backbench PC MLAs voted with a Liberal opposition motion calling for consultations, helping to carry the motion 26-20.

Wilson said those Tory MLAs should leave if they can't endorse Higgs's approach.

"To me it's a Conservative value that parents are involved in their children's lives. How do we fix it? I think maybe some of them maybe need to step down. They need to go and just retire, just get out of politics if that's the way they think."

(Shane Magee/CBC)

Former minister Dorothy Shephard quit the cabinet last week but remains a PC MLA.

She said Higgs's handling of Policy 713 was "the last straw" and the latest in a string of examples where he has cut the cabinet and caucus out of decision-making and instead micromanaged issues.

But Wilson defended that approach.

"Blaine has his own leadership style. He does. But look at the work that's been done under his leadership. … He is the premier and he needs to know what's going on in every sector in government," she said. 

"In any of the departments, if something were to go wrong, the bucks stops with him. He needs to know so he can work with us and guide us."

Regional Development Corporation Minister Réjean Savoie, elected last year in a byelection in Miramichi Bay-Neguac, also defended Higgs. 

"The premier has done his job well," Savoie said. "We've never been in such a strong financial position."

He said he worried that the public split would damage the PC party.

"When we have a family disagreement, it should happen behind closed doors. … and the Progressive Conservative party is a family." 

Savoie was among the MLAs who stood behind Higgs in a media scrum minutes after the government lost the vote on the Policy 713 motion last Thursday.

He said the impact of the changes to the policy have been exaggerated. 

"I hope this will end well and we can try to calm things down," he said.

Former PC cabinet minister Jody Carr, whose brother Jeff Carr is a minister in the government and among those who voted for the motion, tweeted Thursday that it was sad to see Higgs "lose the confidence of his party, caucus and citizens, and be the last one to realize it."

Wilson was one of the few PC MLAs who supported Higgs in his campaign for the party leadership in 2016.

She became minister of women's equality and minister of Service New Brunswick when the party took power after the 2018 election, but was shuffled out of the cabinet when the PCs were re-elected in 2020.

The former minister of Service New Brunswick Sherry Wilson never did find my Harley. Perhaps she will now? 
 
 
 
 

Blaine Higgs, a visitor to the PC Party, may soon be shown the door

The premier ran for the party leadership as an outsider. That may now be his undoing

He's like that person who shows up at a house party as a virtual stranger or a new acquaintance barely known to the hosts.

They liven up the evening, but sometimes the party-goers look askance when they become disruptive.

"I did not grow up in a political family," Higgs said when he launched his campaign to win the PC leadership in 2016. "I did not come from deep roots politically."

Higgs had served one term as finance minister in a previous Tory government, but prior to 2010 never held elective office and hadn't even been a PC Party member.

He portrayed himself — accurately — as an outsider, the kind of person the party and the province needed to lead what he called "a movement" to save New Brunswick.

"I have the independence of thinking this province desperately needs," he said.

Now Higgs faces a push from within for a leadership review, with more than half of party riding presidents signing letters to trigger the process.

And his willingness to defy long-established partisan norms is coming back to haunt him.

As minister of finance from 2010 to 2014, that willingness to question the conventional wisdom of party politics was often bracing and refreshing.

Uncomfortable truths

He uttered uncomfortable truths that political veterans never acknowledged: that expensive, poorly thought out campaign promises were responsible for a large part of the province's big deficits and debt.

"It's a case when politicians are the most vulnerable, and people say 'I'll get him to promise this,'" he said.

Blaine Higgs reacts to a 2021 letter from Dorothy Shephard that said his leadership style 'destroyed' the team around him.

Another example was Higgs's refusal to endorse Premier David Alward's patronage appointment of cabinet minister Margaret-Ann Blaney to a plush Crown CEO job.

Longtime party stalwarts simply don't do that. They fall in line.

Higgs was different. That became his biggest asset, central to his brand.

Even Higgs's past involvement with the anti-bilingualism Confederation of Regions party — alarming to many francophones — underscored that he was truly different.

He once described threatening to resign when political staffers in Alward's office rewrote his budget speech on the eve of its delivery.

They backed off that time, he said, but in 2016 he argued he needed the top job to overcome those tired, same-old political considerations for good.

"I'm running for premier because I can't get it done as finance minister," he said.

Little support from MLAs

Only three sitting PC MLAs endorsed him, an indicator of how his more conventional colleagues saw his maverickness.

So he signed up countless new party members to go around them.

He told those recruits that "it doesn't matter what the party's called — use the PC Party as a conduit to change politics in New Brunswick."

Saint John Lancaster MLA Dorothy Shephard, who quit cabinet last week over Higgs's management style, wrote in a 2021 letter to him that most of his leadership supporters "had never supported the [PC Party] or had any connection to anyone in the party."

And, she added, most of them "are nowhere to be found now."

Most MLAs who worked with Higgs in the Alward cabinet endorsed other leadership candidates in 2016 and chafed at his open disdain for old-fashioned party ways.

"When it's done right … politics is what makes things happen," veteran Portland-Simonds member Trevor Holder said at the time.

"Sometimes that takes political friendships and alliances to get that done."

Higgs says schools should have to inform parents if a child under 16 wants to change their names or pronouns, and young children should not be exposed to drag queen storytimes.

Holder was among the cabinet ministers who defied Higgs last week to vote for an opposition motion calling for more consultations on changes to LGBTQ protections for students in Policy 713.

Higgs won the leadership and the sceptics fell in line, then watched as his unconventional approach became, in their minds, a political liability.

Criticism from caucus

The main accusation by his caucus critics is that he cuts them out of his decision-making process.

His 2020 push for health reforms — including the proposed closure of small hospital emergency departments — cost him his only francophone MLA at the time, Robert Gauvin.

Gauvin's father was the late Jean Gauvin, a longtime member of Richard Hatfield's cabinet who helped keep the embers of PC support flickering in Shippagan during the party's 12-year exile from power.

Jean Gauvin also stood by Hatfield when party rebels tried to remove him from the leadership in 1985 — so his son's move to the Liberals is another symbol of Higgs's break with party history. 

Another francophone who backed Hatfield during that battle, Jean-Pierre Ouellet from Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston, is now part of the push to dump Higgs, arguing the premier is advancing ideas inimical to the PC Party.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's trying to implement a platform that was the CoR platform when he was campaigning for the CoR party in the 1980s," Ouellete said.

Outsider status could be a threat

So the premier's outsider status — the very thing that propelled him to power — now threatens to undo him.

His best defence is his record: big budget surpluses, a lower provincial debt, low unemployment and unprecedented population growth.

But recent comments by Higgs suggest he doubts any potential new PC leader would live up to what he considers the high standards of success he has achieved.

"That is what's weighing heavy on my mind: are we going to keep the ball rolling or are we going to regress and go back into the political process?"

That's another alarming heresy for party veterans who value continuity, succession planning and long-term political viability.

A woman with short grey hair and glasses glances to the left of the photo with a serious expression. It's fairly close-up and only the collar of a black blouse with aqua squares and some red patterning is visible.    In her 2021 letter to Higgs, Shephard said that when he launched his leadership bid, she concluded he "didn't want to be leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick; you just wanted to be 'leader.' (Shane Magee/CBC)

Higgs dismissed the review push in a statement Wednesday that did not acknowledge there are letters from a majority of riding presidents.

Instead he called it "a strategically planned political drama" that has been "a focus from a certain group for a few years now," now heightened by the Policy 713 debate.

In her 2021 letter to Higgs, Shephard said that when he launched his leadership bid, she concluded he "didn't want to be leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick; you just wanted to be 'leader.'"

But the two can't be separated: if the push for a leadership review succeeds, Higgs would be facing the end of his tenure as both PC leader and premier.

That's the choice now facing party members: what to do with this guest who, to many, is wearing out his welcome.

C’mon. It’s an article by reporters from the province about the province and talking to the politicians from Higgs’ party. It seems pretty good to this outsider. I mean, what is being reported is happening. It’s not all sunshine and daisies right now for this guy or the party. Higgs has not been listening to his people and is plowing ahead with a very controversial piece of legislation. That’s not smart politics. At the least you need your own team on your side, if you don’t have that then forget it.

And J P and the C B C can't help but twist it further.

Did you know lots of Europe including the Netherlands and the UK are changing the same policy NB just did? The reason being is gender affirmation in children that don't include the parent is not resulting in the outcomes they had expected. It is affecting them negatively. Read a book, NB.

"the Netherlands and the UK are changing the same policy NB just did"

{citation needed}

Higgs came in, like DeSantis and lots of other righties in the US, both barrels blazing. He didn't bother to take the time to have a discussion with people who implemented the policy in the first place, and ask them questions. He's clearly giving in to social conservatives who are simply using this as a wedge to defeat policies that accept the fact that people are non-binary. They see the whole "transition" thing as an easy target, from which they ca make further inroads toward their goal of reversing the entire spectrum of policies that support non-binary citizens.

This issue he has brushed aside as being trendy. His problems do not stem from this issue. This is the camel's straw. It's a governance matter. He's taking his advice from some place outside of NB and bypassing the elected representatives. I understand that Conservatives think they can save face by trying to make this about an issue that polls well for them with their base, but this is a leadership crisis now. Try to stay on point. Higgs has shown himself to be oblivious or flippant to the social question. PR strategizing is all that is occurring with the issue you raise. The recommendations he got from his paid planners bombed as far as I'm concerned. Their national spearhead movement to take on this issue has died in NB just like fracking did. We became world notables in putting an end to the madness, and we ought to keep doing it despite these doomsday prophets telling us we are in need of their savior's medicine.

This is simply respecting pronouns and names, it is not surgery or HRT. It is common decency and respect to use the pronoun and name someone requests, and their parents shouldn’t have say in the matter whatsoever if the child hasn’t decided to tell them yet


 
 

 

PC rebels say majority of riding presidents support ousting Higgs

More than 20 riding presidents signed letters, the first step in removing N.B. premier as leader of the party

A member of the party's provincial council says 25 presidents of PC riding associations have signed letters calling for a leadership review vote.

That's a majority out of the 49 ridings. It also surpasses a key threshold in the party's constitution to trigger the process.

"That number constitutes over 50 per cent of riding association presidents and I think it clearly shows there's a desire for a change of leadership amongst the membership," said John Williston, a regional vice-president of the party who supports the review.

"This is from every part of the province. … It's important that this reflects a wide scope of New Brunswick — anglophone, francophone, northern, southern. It shows unity among our party throughout the province."

CBC News has seen and verified 22 of the letters, two more than the number required to advance the issue.

Jean-Pierre Ouellet, president of the Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston riding association and one of the signatories, said Higgs has made too many decisions without consulting the public.

"It's 'my way or the highway,'" he said, pointing to an attempt to replace French immersion, legislation weakening the powers of anglophone district education councils and eliminating elected positions on regional health authority boards.

Surpassing the 20-letter threshold doesn't guarantee a membership vote on Higgs's leadership will be held.

The party constitution requires letters from 20 riding presidents, and 50 party members in total, for the party's provincial council — its governing body — to put the question on its agenda at its next meeting.

No more than five of the 50 members can be from any single riding.

Former party president Claude Williams told Radio-Canada's La Matinale on Wednesday morning that those 50 letters were also in hand.

"We have the numbers," Williams said. "If I were in his place, I'd retire." 

The council must vote by a two-thirds majority to schedule a convention within three months, where delegates would vote on whether to keep or remove Higgs.

Williston, a member of the council, said he believes a two-thirds vote is well within "striking distance."

"With approximately one-third of the caucus voting against the government and not willing to follow the premier at this point, it's quite obvious to me we need a change in leadership in the party."

Reviews are automatic if the party loses an election, but the process is elaborate and time-consuming when it's in power.

The move to dump Higgs is the first organized attempt to remove a sitting New Brunswick premier from their party's leadership since an effort against Premier Richard Hatfield in 1985.

Higgs was elected premier in September 2018 and re-elected two years later. 

Former cabinet minister Dorothy Shephard, who resigned as social development minister last week, said last week that she'd rather see Higgs leave "amicably" than face being ousted.

"I know that the party is mobilizing to consider a leadership review," she said on CBC's Power and Politics. "I'm sure that weighs on his mind."

But Higgs indicated Monday the ball was in the membership's court.

"It won't be a call that I make, right?" he told reporters. "If the party decides to do that, it won't be a decision I make. So if it happens, I guess it happens."

Shephard quit after she and five other PC MLAs, including three other ministers, voted with the opposition for a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713.

The premier said he was willing to face a party review process to defend his position on his controversial review of the policy, which sets out standards for providing safe and inclusive spaces for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

PC Party president Erika Hachey said in an email she has not received any letters yet from riding presidents calling for a review.

The provincial council is scheduled to meet this weekend, but the party constitution requires letters to be submitted 21 days in advance, so the review would only appear on the agenda of the next meeting this fall.

Hachey was unsure exactly how many members sit on the provincial council and what number would constitute two-thirds support for calling a convention.

The council includes the 49 riding presidents, several party officials, including the president and nine regional vice-presidents, five MLAs whom she did not identify, and Higgs himself.

Or

"A member of the party's provincial council says 25 presidents of PC riding associations have signed letters calling for a leadership review vote."

Which is it?

Calling for a review is not the same as calling to push Higgs out as party leader. Seems like a political ploy that is based more on hearsay than fact. Lets see the names of those calling for this review.

PC official wants Blaine Higgs's leadership put to review

PC party official hopes for discussion of N.B. premier's leadership at
annual general meeting

retire ahead of the next election in 2024 or seek another mandate.

A Progressive Conservative party official in southeast New Brunswick
is trying to trigger a review of Premier Blaine Higgs's leadership of
the provincial party.

In an email to fellow party members, Maurice Arsenault, the PC
regional vice-president for southeast New Brunswick, accuses Higgs of
a "dictatorial approach."

He's hoping to rally enough PC members to sign letters to trigger a
discussion of the premier's leadership at the party's annual general
meeting Nov. 4-5 in Fredericton.

"Let me remind it was Blaine Higgs who embraced Dominic Cardy and Kris
Austin without any consultation with our party," Arsenault wrote.

the Tories in March, was sworn into Higgs cabinet the same day Dominic
Cardy resigned. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

Cardy, a former NDP leader, joined the PCs in 2017 but resigned from
Higgs's cabinet last week over the premier's leadership style.

The same day, Austin, a former leader of the People's Alliance who
defected to the Tories in March, was sworn into the cabinet.

"There's a lot of people who are not satisfied, and everybody's
talking about it, and nobody's doing anything about it," Arsenault
told CBC News.

"Then Cardy jumped the boat, and he's not the only one who's
frustrated, so I believe it was time to put my letter forward."
Caucus backs Higgs

Moncton South PC MLA Greg Turner said he convened a meeting of the PC
caucus Monday night after they "got wind" of the letter, and the
support for Higgs was unanimous, with no dissent.

"Without exception, [it was] 100 per cent complete endorsement of the
premier and his leadership for our province, actually," he said.

"Everybody had a chance to speak who wanted to speak on the subject,
and it was very, very positive. Ministers and MLAs alike were unified
in our endorsement of the premier and the work we have done and he has
done in leading us."

caucus Monday night after they “got wind” of the letter and the

Poitras/CBC)

Arsenault, who lives in the riding of Moncton Centre, writes in his
letter that Austin "does not adhere to our party's constitution," a
reference to the Alliance party's opposition to aspects of official
bilingualism.

The PC constitution's principles include a statement that party
members support official bilingualism and the protection and promotion
of "the diversity of our two linguistic communities."

"It was enough to have Kris Austin" as a PC MLA, but "having him as a
minister, I can't stand that," Arsenault said.
Snap vote hurdles

He said he's been told by someone in the party that if he can gather
enough support quickly enough, the leadership question can be put on
the agenda at the annual meeting.

But the hurdles to a snap vote on removing the PC leader are considerable.

Reviews are automatic when the party loses an election, but when it's
in power, 50 party members, including 20 riding association
presidents, must ask the president's council for a vote on a review at
least 21 days before its next meeting.

The president's council is made up of members the party executive, its
regional vice-presidents such as Arsenault and all 49 PC riding
association presidents.

It must vote by a two-thirds margin in favour of a leadership review.
Only then would a vote by all members on ousting Higgs be scheduled
within three months, either at an annual meeting or special meeting.

PC party president Claude Williams says the president's council is
unlikely to meet until December and that means it's impossible for a
leadership review to get on the agenda at the annual meeting.
Debate has been going on for 'last few weeks'

Williams, a former cabinet colleague of Higgs in the David Alward
government, said as party president he cannot take a position on the
premier's leadership.

"The debate's been going on for the last few weeks," he said. "I don't
have an opinion."

Among Arsenault's other complaints is that Higgs has done nothing to
fix health care since firing the two regional health authority boards
in July, and has yet to respond to a review of the Official Languages
Act that was submitted 10 months ago.

He says he's been hearing "for months" from party supporters wanting a
change at the top.

    Health care crisis dominates N.B. Legislature's return

    Cardy says other ministers frustrated with Higgs should quit, too

But Turner says Arsenault is an isolated voice.

"We can't lose sight of the fact that this review call is from one
member of the party. That's how we look at this. I'm sure there's
always people who question the leadership of any organization at
certain times for certain reasons."

Higgs recently told Brunswick News that he'll announce during his
State of the Province speech in the new year whether he plans to
retire ahead of the next election in 2024 or seek another mandate.

But Arsenault says Higgs is "toying with us" and that timing is
"disrespectful" for a potential new party leader who would need to
establish their own agenda before the 2024 election.

Call for review of Blaine Higgs leadership in NB

By Teilor Stonein News
Spread the love

Call for review of Blaine Higgs leadership in NB.

A regional vice-president wants Blaine Higgs to be put to a vote of confidence.

Blaine Higgs, Premier of New Brunswick, at the press scrum at the
Legislative Assembly, in Fredericton, in October 2022.

In a letter addressed to the members of the executive committee of the
Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick and of which
Radio-Canada obtained a copy, a regional vice-president, Maurice
Arsenault, launches an appeal to his peers to initiate a process to
review the leadership of Prime Minister Blaine Higgs.

This call comes a few days after the ex-Minister of Education Dominic
Cardy set fire to the powder by resigning from his post and publishing
an inflammatory letter in which he denounces the actions of Blaine
Higgs. Dominic Cardy has since been kicked out of the Conservative
caucus.

    “For months I have heard [Progressive Conservative Party]
supporters want change at the top. Blaine Higgs must be reminded that
he was not elected Prime Minister, our party was elected to govern
with him as leader. »

    — Maurice Arsenault, Regional Vice-President of Westmorland Albert

In his letter, the Regional Vice-President of Westmorland Albert
denounces the dictatorial approach of the leader. He also criticizes
the arrival of Dominic Cardy and Kris Austin, without any consultation
with the party. He writes that the appointment of Kris Austin as
Minister is once again a snub to Francophones and criticizes the Prime
Minister's management of health.

[Blaine Higgs] is not philosophically aligned to guide a
reconstruction of post-COVID society with all its challenges, he
believes.

Mauritius Arsenault calls on members to send letters to party chairman
Claude Williams by October 28 asking for a leadership review. Maurice
Arsenault himself sent a letter to officially make this request.

Before a review process is launched, other Progressive Conservatives
will have to add their voice to that of Maurice Arsenault.

According to the constitution of the PCNB, a leadership review may
have take place at any time, even when the party forms the government.

To do so, at least fifty party members – including at least 20
constituency presidents – must apply to have the party leadership
review placed on the agenda for the next provincial council meeting.

Party chairman Claude Williams says the next council meeting should
take place before the end of December.

If two-thirds of council members vote in favor of a revision, a
meeting will be convened within three months to hold a secret vote.

In this secret ballot, party members – that is, all citizens
registered as members of the Progressive Conservative Party of New
Brunswick – will be asked to answer the following question: Do you
support [Blaine Higgs ] as Party leader? .

If more than 50% of members say no, a leadership convention will be
held within six months to choose a new leader.

In an interview with Radio-Canada on Monday afternoon, Maurice
Arsenault said he was confident that he would manage to obtain the
necessary mobilization to trigger the process.

I am very confident that I will get the twenties [necessary supports].
Already, I received a dozen comments in my favor and I think the rest
will come, not only from the French-speaking regions, from the
English-speaking regions too, he says.

News Release
Executive Council Office
Office of the Premier
Transition team announced
06 November 2018

FREDERICTON (GNB) – Premier-designate Blaine Higgs announced a
transition team to liaise with the civil service in the period leading
to the swearing-in of the new cabinet.

“A group of talented New Brunswickers have agreed to work with our
government to help ensure a seamless transition,” said Higgs. “These
team members bring decades of experience and expertise in the private
sector, governance and politics to this important process.”

The team members are:

    Louis Léger: With over 25 years of business experience, Léger has
spent  much of his career at the centre of the Atlantic Canadian
marketing communications industry and was recognized by Progress
Magazine as one of Atlantic Canada’s top 50 CEOs. Léger is on the
board of directors and chairs the finance committee of the Donald J.
Savoie Institute on Public Policy Research. He has also served on the
Université de Moncton’s board of governors.

    John Mallory: A retired deputy minister of finance, Mallory served
for 15 years under six premiers and seven finance ministers.

    Edith Doucet: Doucet has 33 years of experience in the public
service, including time as clerk of the Executive Council and head of
the civil service. She also served as deputy minister of social
development, healthy and inclusive communities and intergovernmental
affairs.

    Bob Youden: Youden is a partner in Savarin Consulting, a
consulting and holding company for business interests. He has over 30
years of experience working in the private and public sectors.

    Paul D’Astous: A retired chair and CEO with the New Brunswick
Insurance Board and former vice-president of sales and marketing with
Assumption Life, D’Astous is the executive director of the Progressive
Conservative Party of New Brunswick.

“Premier Gallant and I have met to discuss the transition and I want
to thank Mr. Gallant and the senior officials in the civil service for
the work they have done,” said Higgs.

Cash-strapped PCs 'working hard' on building campaign war chest

The Opposition party applied for government assistance to hire staff last year

Money was so tight at New Brunswick Progressive Conservative headquarters last year the party successfully applied for $4,700 in government wage assistance to help hire staff and had so many overdue bills it spent almost as much on late charges as it did on heat and lights.

Bob Hatheway acknowledges 2017 was a financial challenge for the PCs, but the party's long-time official agent and Fredericton businessman is confident it will be able to raise the substantial sums it needs this year to fight an effective province-wide election campaign — even with tough new donation rules.

"The party fundraising team has been working hard on that," said Hatheway.   

"I have every expectation that as the election writ drops we'll be fully funded for our budget we need for fighting the election."

Huge Liberal advantage

Raising money is traditionally difficult for opposition parties in New Brunswick, but the financial gap at the end of 2017 between governing Liberals, who had $1.8 million in the bank, and Opposition Tories, who had $13,000 and change in their accounts, looks especially daunting heading into this year's election season.

Progressive Conservatives raised $1.5 million to help fight the last election in 2014, but 54 per cent of that came from corporate donations which are now banned in the province. Maximum donations from individuals have also been lowered from $6,000 to $3,000.

That will limit how much money can be raised this year and could lead to a no-frills campaign for the party as it tries to live on what it can coax from individuals or qualify for in reimbursements from Elections New Brunswick to finance everything it does.

"I don't know that we'll be able to reach that past level. I do know we are being very conscientious of what our budget is," said Hatheway. 

"The amount of money that any of the other parties have is not really too relevant to us because we have a budget that's in place for our own purposes and we're going to be able to raise the money that's needed for that."

Hatheway wouldn't say what that budget is, but the party has spent more than $3 million in each of the last two election years, most of that on the campaign. 

In each of those campaigns, the party ended up borrowing money to supplement fundraising but, at the end of 2017, still owed $256,405 from past loans and is trying to avoid more debt this time.

"Our intention is to spend money we do have," said Hatheway

"The fundraising has been going very well. I'm quite excited about how it's going."

Blaine Higgs drops 2 rebellious ministers in cabinet shuffle

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr are out, replaced by newcomers

Premier Blaine Higgs has reasserted his authority over his fractured Progressive Conservative government by dumping two ministers who voted against him on the contentious issue of New Brunswick's school gender-identity policy.

In a cabinet shuffle Tuesday, Higgs dropped Local Government Minister Daniel Allain and Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Jeff Carr, sending them to the backbenches.

He made it clear that their breaking ranks in a key vote on Policy 713 had cost them their jobs, violating the principle of cabinet solidarity.

"To go outside of that and to basically feel that it doesn't matter if you're in cabinet or not — it does matter. And to not address the situation is really putting the government in a very vulnerable position," Higgs told reporters after a 9 a.m. swearing-in.

"We have to respect the parliamentary system that we're in, the sanctity of cabinet, and the fact we'll have very frank and open discussion in cabinet or in caucus, but in cabinet you have to have solidarity."

The new additions to cabinet are Carleton-York MLA Richard Ames, Moncton South MLA Greg Turner and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus. All are first-timers as ministers. 

Rejoining cabinet are Moncton Southwest MLA Sherry Wilson, who was in cabinet from 2018 to 2020, and Oromocto-Lincoln-Fredericton MLA Mary Wilson, who was shuffled out of cabinet last fall.

Allain and Carr make four ministers no longer in Higgs's cabinet.

Blaine Higgs explains why he dropped two cabinet ministers

Duration 1:20
Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr are out of New Brunswick’s cabinet. Replacing them are new additions including Carleton-York MLA Richard Ames, Moncton South MLA Greg Turner and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus.

The two other ministers, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, resigned, both of them citing Higgs's leadership style that they said was at odds with the values and traditions of the PC party.

All four voted with the opposition parties on June 15 to help pass a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

Higgs claimed that day that the vote was not whipped, but he said Tuesday "I never made it a free vote, either."

CBC News Explains: How did the New Brunswick government change Policy 713?

Duration 2:19
New Brunswick's Department of Education made several changes to a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students, affecting sections on self-identification, extracurricular activities and washrooms.

In the past, the premier has often tolerated minor acts of dissent in his cabinet and caucus, referring to it as "a diverse group" that has pushed the envelope the same way he did when he was the outspoken finance minister in the Alward government. 

But on Policy 713 Higgs has signalled he was losing patience.

"To take a position against the government in the legislature, voting in the legislature, is very significant," he said Tuesday.

Carr and Allain both said Tuesday they understood from Higgs that it was to be a free vote. 

"Obviously the definition of free vote differs from one individual to another," Allain said.

Both former ministers said they were questioning their futures in politics.

Allain said he was pondering whether "maybe there are other ways" for him to serve, given the party "is in a crisis. … I'm asking the question: is it worth the fight?"

He wouldn't say whether he supports the push for a review of Higgs's leadership.

Carr said he won't run in next year's provincial election if the premier is still leading the party.

He said he was disappointed but understands why he was removed from cabinet and did not regret his vote on Policy 713.

Carr insisted that the opposition motion called for exactly what the PC caucus had been promised by Higgs — a role for the child and youth advocate in determining if the policy changes were legally sound. 

He also wished the new ministers well in Higgs's cabinet.

"If they feel satisfied with that type of leadership and governing, then that's okay. I don't judge them for that." 

Higgs told reporters after the shuffle he'll try to reach out to unhappy grassroots members of the Progressive Conservative party, some of whom are organizing to remove him as leader

"I think we have some building to do, there's no question of that," Higgs said.

"I need to play a key role in that, reaching out to the membership, the executives throughout the province, and be able to sit down and have some very good discussions." 

New ministers proclaim support for premier

"I can guarantee you he doesn't have to ask me" about my loyalty, Mary Wilson told reporters.

"I have no problem with our premier. I think he does a great job."

Ames proclaimed that "it's a new day, a new team, new cabinet, great caucus — we're moving forward."

And Turner, who chaired the PC caucus until Tuesday, rejected the claims by Shephard and Holder that Higgs didn't listen to his MLAs.

Duration 1:19
The CBC’s Jacques Poitras walks us through each step the PC party must go through to remove a sitting premier.

"In any caucus meetings I was in, absolutely. I was in all the caucus meetings. Absolutely," he said.

"Like any team, there has been a leader and there has been people who support the leader," Turner said. "I have full confidence in his leadership abilities for sure. There's no question about that."

Ames replaces Carr as minister of transportation and infrastructure, while Saint John East MLA Glen Savoie gets a promotion by taking over Allain's local government portfolio.

Allain was the senior francophone minister in government, representing a language community with few MLAs in the PC caucus.

"He'll continue to be a valued member in our caucus and I'm sure he'll continue to represent the community," Higgs said.

Carr, Allain, Shephard, Holder and two other ministers, Arlene Dunn and Jill Green, signed a statement earlier this month complaining about a lack of transparency and process in the government's review of Policy 713.

Dunn, who missed the June 15 vote but said the next day she'd have voted with the opposition, remains in cabinet and takes over the post-secondary education, labour and training duties that Holder held.

Asked why he kept her in cabinet, Higgs told reporters that "I know if someone had been there, they might have done differently … but the fact is they weren't there and they didn't stand against the government."

Dunn told reporters after the cabinet shuffle that her issue had been with Policy 713.

"I didn't think we should have touched that. I think we should have stayed away from it," she said.

But beyond that, "I do have confidence in the leadership of the premier."

Green also missed the June 15 vote and later said she didn't know how she would have voted. 

She's been promoted to minister of social development and also holds on to the housing file, with her provincial housing strategy expected to be released this week.

Opposition Liberal leader Susan Holt did not mention the internal PC party turmoil in a tweet congratulating the new ministers.

"Our team is ready to work with you to address the issues most important to New Brunswickers," she wrote.

New minister responsibilities:

  • Richard Ames — Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, former backbencher.
  • Jill Green — Minister of Social Development and responsible for Economic and Social Inclusion Corporation; still responsible for New Brunswick Housing Corporation,but no longer the Minister of Service New Brunswick. 
  • Arlene Dunn — Minister of Post-Secondary Education, Training and Labour, remains Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Minister responsible for Immigration; no longer responsible for Economic Development and Small Business and Opportunities N.B.
  • Greg Turner — Minister responsible for Opportunities N.B. and Economic Development and Small Business, former backbencher.
  • Glen Savoie — Minister of Local Government and still responsible for la Francophonie.
  • Mary Wilson — Minister of Service New Brunswick and responsible for Military Affairs; former backbencher shuffled out of cabinet last fall.
  • Tammy Scott-Wallace — remains Minister of Tourism, Heritage and Culture, but no longer Minister responsible for Women's Equality.
  • Sherry Wilson — Minister responsible for Women's Equality and for Addictions and Mental Health Services; minister from 2018 to 2020 who became a backbencher after the 2020 election.
  • Kathy Bockus — Minister responsible for Seniors, former backbencher.

Methinks Higgy just sealed the deal to go to war with Mr Allian and his pals Now they will battle for the Leadership N'esy Pas?

I maintain Danny Boy will win the battle for leadership

Reply to David Amos
If there is a leadership convention than that is a distinct possibility but there has to be a vacancy at the top first and with 15 months to go before an election, there is no way to dispose of the current leader, hold a leadership race and convention and have the new leader prepared to fight an election and win. Danny Boy is not stupid enough to cut off his nose to spite his face. He's a much smarter man than I am (I think), if I can read the timeline, I'm sure he can as well. He would be in much better shape to wait till after the Sept 2024 election and step into a leadership race at that point if a vacancy at the top occurs.

Reply to David Amos
No, only the party can dump the leader. That is the big difference between Britian's Westminster System and Canada's. Britian's Caucus does elect the leader and can dump them at any time. In Canada all Party Members have the right to vote for their leader and under the rules can bit them out as well. I definitely like our rules better.

What I see as most disappointing...let's face it: Higgs is a huge disappointment, but what is most disappointing is that the provincial cabinet is now completely filled with a bunch of Higgs sycophants who will toe the party line but not really offer new thoughts or hopes for the people of New Brunswick.

That was then and this is now. Even Poitras now seems to understand who Higgs is. Half the PCs in the province (over half of the local riding presidents have asked him to resign) will stay home if an election is called. That is an opinion and not fact.

They will be bolstered by the fact that Susan Holt and the Liberals have not given any reason for them or us to think she/they will govern much differently then the PCs. In that they will keep the fee cuts for billionaires on crown land, and tax free living for the Irving enterprises.

NBers should make sure that neither the Liberals or the Conservatives get a majority the next time we vote. Look what happens when we don't do that. The premier of the day begins to think that the province belongs to him/her and their advisors.

You’re right, the Liberals under Holt need to prove that they are not the Party of the past. They have to show NBers that the billionaires will finally lose power, that regular folks will not be footing the bills while watching our services collapse. Watching the Legislature (as little of it there is) there seems to be hope in some of these new Liberal MLAs and Leader. Now they have to start proving it’s for real, not something that disappears the minute they take power. NBs are fed up with that scenario.

And you’re absolutely right on the need for a Minority Government. Ross Wetmore said in the Legislature that for all his years (13) in Government, the 2018 Minority Government was the best he had worked in. He seemed very emotional about what has become of Government in NB.

Over half the party ridings are calling for a leadership review, that's a fact, and also shows significant disappointment within the party. At least a third of his Cabinet, at least until this move, was also in open rebellion against him. That certainly shows a significant level of disappointment within his own elected members.

Your provided "fact" is a vote that is only for his riding, not for him as leader. In Alberta Kenney's UPC got elected with a strong majority yet he was ousted by his party. What you've outlined as "fact" is basically the scenario that happened in Alberta.

Reply to Robert Borden 
I guess we'll see what happen with the next election. The ridings may be calling for a review, but are the actual voters calling for it? We dont really know 100%, we can estimate, poll etc, but we dont really know whats on every voters mind until election time.

Winning a democratically instituted voting system where you win the majority of votes should be enough evidence of the majority agreeing. Therefore its not an opinion, but a fact.

Higgs's job is to represent the views of the people who voted for him. If he caves, it will be a huge disappointment for those who voted for him. If necessary, he may need to call an election to prove this.

Reply to Andrew Martin
Again, voters vote for their MLA, the party votes for the leader. Even if voters want the conservatives to remain in power, it doesn't mean they want Higgs as their premier.

Same thing happened in Alberta with Kenney, and quite possibly will happen with Smith, and I'd even go so far as including the federal Liberals with Trudeau.

Higgs doesn't seem to have the support of his party and it could be completely irrelevant what the voters want. If the party wants him out, he'll be gone.

And if the voters wanted him running it and the party votes him out, then they may get voted out

It’s also a fact that the unvaccinated Pandemic Election Majority was won with 26% of eligible voters. This was after success in a Minority Government scenario with Higgs near the top in the approval rating polls. The opinion is that after receiving his Majority it seems that was the beginning of his missteps and downward trend, IMO.

Higgs accused of launching 'vicious' attack on PC critic during Saturday meeting

Former president tells premier to ‘get over it’ ahead of Tuesday cabinet shuffle

Two ministers, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, have resigned from his cabinet in the last two weeks over their concerns about his approach.

Higgs's spokesperson Nicolle Carlin told CBC News on Monday morning that the premier will shuffle his cabinet on Tuesday.

Two other ministers, Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr, joined Shephard and Holder in voting against the government on June 15.

PC arguments about Higgs are 'arduous, tumultuous and in the public,' minister says

Duration 1:10
Daniel Allain comments on an internal battle within New Brunswick's governing Progressive Conservative party. Premier Blaine Higgs has come under fire inside caucus and across the party.

Allain said Monday afternoon he hadn't been told yet if he'd still be a minister on Tuesday.

"There's a process," he said at a news conference in Grand Bouctouche. "We serve at the pleasure of the premier."

Allain and the three other ministers helped to pass an opposition Liberal motion calling for further consultations on the government's Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ+ students in schools.

CBC Explains: How does a leadership review work?

Duration 1:19
The CBC’s Jacques Poitras walks us through each step the PC party must go through to remove a sitting premier.

All four helped to pass an opposition Liberal motion calling for further consultations on the government's Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in schools.

That vote crystallized a growing discontent within the party that Shephard said goes far beyond just Policy 713.

Former party president Claude Williams said last week that there are letters from presidents of 26 PC riding associations asking for a leadership review — more than the 20 required to force the provincial council to vote on whether to hold a vote.

Higgs looks at 'path forward'

Williston said the letters weren't submitted at Saturday's meeting because the number continues to grow, with two more presidents signing on after the meeting because of the premier's behaviour.

Higgs said on Saturday that there was "a good frank open discussion here and I think we have a path forward."

Asked about Williams telling reporters he was disappointed in comments by the premier in the meeting, Higgs said his remarks were "about team building, it was about us working together and having good discussions internally." 

But Williston said Higgs's comments were "almost borderline shocking." 

WATCH | In May, Higgs called for a controversial review of Policy 713:

Duration 2:03
Higgs says schools should have to inform parents if a child under 16 wants to change their names or pronouns, and young children should not be exposed to drag queen storytimes.

He also said the premier's critics tried to introduce a motion to schedule a special meeting of the council before the fall to deal with the leadership review issue but were ruled out of order based on procedure.

"Some people in the party are trying to to rag the puck," he said.

PC party president Erika Hachey, who ran Saturday's meeting, said Monday morning she had no comment on Williston's description of the discussion.

Williston said Higgs claimed in the meeting he was blameless for the party's poor election showings in francophone New Brunswick, pointing the finger instead at what he called negative coverage in the French-language newspaper L'Acadie Nouvelle.

​A​re the days numbered for Blaine Higgs as leader of New Brunswick's PC party? ​Jeanne Armstrong spoke to two party members who say it's time for the Premier to take a final bow. ​John Williston, a regional vice-president with the party, and Brian Harquail, former PC party president and one of the people who signed the letter calling for Higgs to resign.

Former PC party president Brian Harquail, who did not attend the meeting, told Information Morning that if Higgs can't unite his caucus and his party, he doesn't deserve to be governing New Brunswick. 

"I was elected twice as president and we have a reputation of eating our young, and blaming somebody else for our own mistakes," he said.

"Well, it's time we took control and started to lead the party in the right direction."

'Things are going to escalate'

Harquail was one of four former presidents who signed a letter last week calling on Higgs to resign to avoid a divisive, drawn-out leadership review fight.

He scoffed at Higgs blaming negative media coverage for his lack of popularity in francophone New Brunswick.

"To attack the newspaper for doing their job is childish and shows a very, very strong lack of leadership," he said.

"Get over it, Blaine, because that's life and that's the way it is. And you wanted the job, so let's get on with it."

Williston said far from calming down, he believes that "things are going to escalate" in the party's internal battle. 

He said the premier will eventually have to realize that he can no longer govern and that an election would be a risk now because many PC members in local riding associations won't work for him as leader.

Alward appoints faithful to key positions

CBC News · Posted: Oct 14, 2010 6:49 AM ADT

New Brunswick Premier David Alward appointed Tory faithful to key deputy minister posts Thursday, reversing a vow to change the way in which appointments are made by the provincial government.

The appointments include Daniel Allain to the key position of president and chief executive officer of NB Liquor. Dana Clendenning, the Liberal-appointed president of the Crown corporation, left his position last week with a taxpayer-funded severance package.

Previous premiers Shawn Graham and Bernard Lord both selected party loyalists for the job, which pays between $150,000 and $175,000 per year.

What has Higgs done for renewables in NB?

2016 was the first year when there were more people employed in renewable energy worldwide than there were in oil and gas worldwide.

Since then the job growth in renewables has continued to grow. But Higgs head was firmly stuck in the oilsands and NB has lost out on huge, well-paid job growth opportunities in renewables. Time for him to go.

Reply to Fred Brewer  
Our total renewable capacity in 2018 stood at 30.6%, in 2023 it now stands at 40.4%. Conversely, our Oil and Diesel was at 35.2%, it is now 15.5%. Looks like that debt clock needs another adjustment.

We've had hints of this from Ottawa. One incident, about six yrs ago, that made it to a couple of papers, was the time when he jumped up on a desk and started screaming a profanity laden 10 min outburst at an MP who dared to voice what his constituents wanted.

This article is about internal party frictions. How is Trudeau acting like a Conservative? There is little comparable internal friction within the Liberal Party. Alberta's Premier is watching behind her back and Higgs seems to be now too, both conservatives. And of course we can imagine that there might still be a few real conservatives out there who might fundamentally disagree with the direction the federal party is headed.

I'm not sure who you are David Amos, but you and most of your follows do
not seem to understand the procedure spelled out in the constitution of
the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick for making a
leadership review happen. If and when these so called letters are
delivered to the president of the Party and the numbers meet the
criteria then and only then will the process begins. The first step of
this procedure could be referred to as "a shot across the bow". When you
read the constitution you will see that the process maybe aborted at the
next step if a 2/3 majority of the Provincial Council is not achieved.
After attending the meeting on Saturday, I'm not sure if a 2/3 majority
can be achieved. In the mean time, Premier Higgs will be working on
resolving the rifts in his caucus. We will see how that goes. He does
appear to be remorseful and sincerely interested in changing his
management style. He does recognize many of his mistakes and I guess
that would be the first step.

I also want to tell you that under no circumstances is Dominic Cardy or
Jody Carr spokesmen for the PC Party of New Brunswick. Even though they
are members of PCNB, both of these gentleman are in the political
wilderness and are only commenting to the media for their own self
interests, not the Party. Mr Cardy claims he is a member in good
standing of PCNB. Member yes, good standing NO. I have talked with many,
many members of the Party in the past year and only one admits to being
an ally of Mr Cardy.  I have no idea why the media flocks to him each
time there is a new development in New Brunswick politics. His opinion
has zero value to most people in the Province. If the media wanted to
renew their credibility they would stop interviewing him.

Toronto is hosting Pride celebrations this weekend, but it comes at a
time where advocates say trans people are being targeted and harmful
rhetoric is on the rise.

In New Brunswick, the provincial government's decision to change an
education policy on gender identity has caused significant controversy
and even turmoil within the government. The changes make it mandatory
for teachers to get parental consent before using a student's chosen
name and pronouns.

School psychologists as well as child welfare, education and human
rights experts have all come out against these changes.

Our question this week: Is Canada becoming more or less accepting of
LGBTQ rights? What conversations are you having?

Our Ask Me Anything segment this week features former Conservative
leader Erin O'Toole. O'Toole resigned his seat as an MP at the end of
the House of Commons' spring session this past Wednesday. What

PC rebels say majority of riding presidents support ousting Higgs
 
 
 

Premier Higgs says he won't resign after calls for his removal

Higgs intends to stay on even after the resignations of 2 cabinet ministers

When asked what's next for him and the party, Higgs batted down any suggestion of stepping aside.

"It won't be a resignation," Higgs said.

The premier has been under pressure to step aside after changes to Policy 713 — a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students in schools — prompted the resignations of two cabinet ministers and letters from more than 20 riding presidents calling on Higgs to resign.

Higgs said there was no formal discussion at the meeting about a possible leadership review, but did say he wants to work with the party and his caucus to resolve any issues behind closed doors.

"I think we have a path forward here as we work through some of our issues," he said.

Claude Williams, a former president of the party who attended the meeting, said the reason there was no formal discussion about a leadership review is because the rules of the meeting made it impossible.

He also said he was disappointed in the premier's closing remarks to the meeting, but didn't elaborate further.

Support cloudy

The amount of support the premier has in caucus, and in the party, is up for debate.

On Wednesday, CBC News reported at least 22 riding presidents have written letters calling for a leadership review vote.

But Mark Paul-Elias, the president of the PC's Fredericton-Grand Lake Riding Association, said the majority of the party stands behind the premier.

While he admitted not everyone was supportive of Higgs — mentioning at least one person who walked out of the meeting — Paul-Elias maintained the premier has the party's support.

"You don't have a family that doesn't have the odd person who doesn't agree with what's going on. But the party is really united and we intend to stay united," he said.

 "The turmoil within New Brunswick's Progressive Conservative Party was deepening Friday morning as another minister quit Premier Blaine Higgs's cabinet and four former top party officials demanded the premier resign.

Portland-Simonds MLA Trevor Holder, the longest-serving MLA in the legislature, announced in an open letter he was quitting as minister of post-secondary education, training and labour.

"Under the leadership of Premier Higgs, caucus has been less about consensus and more about him getting his own way," Holder wrote.

Holder's letter was sent out just one hour after four past presidents of the party called on Higgs to resign immediately.

"We ask that you avoid a disruptive, public battle that could tear the party apart. We ask that you leave graciously," the letter says.

The letter is signed by Claude Williams, Lester Young, Brian Harquail and Jason Stephen, all former presidents of the New Brunswick party."

"Most MLAs who worked with Higgs in the Alward cabinet endorsed other leadership candidates in 2016 and chafed at his open disdain for old-fashioned party ways.

"When it's done right … politics is what makes things happen," veteran Portland-Simonds member Trevor Holder said at the time.

"Sometimes that takes political friendships and alliances to get that done."

"The main accusation by his caucus critics is that he cuts them out of his decision-making process.

His 2020 push for health reforms — including the proposed closure of small hospital emergency departments — cost him his only francophone MLA at the time, Robert Gauvin.

Gauvin's father was the late Jean Gauvin, a longtime member of Richard Hatfield's cabinet who helped keep the embers of PC support flickering in Shippagan during the party's 12-year exile from power.

Jean Gauvin also stood by Hatfield when party rebels tried to remove him from the leadership in 1985 — so his son's move to the Liberals is another symbol of Higgs's break with party history. "

"Another francophone who backed Hatfield during that battle, Jean-Pierre Ouellet from Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston, is now part of the push to dump Higgs, arguing the premier is advancing ideas inimical to the PC Party.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's trying to implement a platform that was the CoR platform when he was campaigning for the CoR party in the 1980s," Ouellete said."

 A child’s gender identity has no impact on the “rearing” aspect of a parent. Their support, love, and attention should not be impacted by their gender identity.

That’s why in this one singular niche situation the parent should be left out, if the child specifically requests it.

Parents are still informed and involved in literally everything else.

Another N.B. cabinet minister quits as turmoil over Higgs's leadership deepens

Trevor Holder resigns not long after 4 former party presidents call for premier to leave

Portland-Simonds MLA Trevor Holder, the longest-serving MLA in the legislature, announced in an open letter he was quitting as minister of post-secondary education, training and labour.

"Under the leadership of Premier Higgs, caucus has been less about consensus and more about him getting his own way," Holder wrote.

Holder said he has tried many times to explain to the premier the importance of working more collaboratively but to no avail.

"While I have tried my best to continue to work to maintain the integrity of the caucus system, I have finally come to the conclusion that this is no longer possible."

He also rapped the premier for "his lack of empathy as well as his inability to listen to valid concerns from all members of his caucus." 

Holder was first elected in the 1999 election and has been a minister under three different PC premiers.

He said he plans to stay on as MLA for Portland-Simonds and called on party members to "build a thoughtful conservative movement in this province that brings people together rather than divide them."

Holder's letter was sent out just one hour after four past presidents of the party called on Higgs to resign immediately.

They wrote in their statement that Higgs has achieved a lot during his more than four years as premier but also lacks the ability to achieve "the delicate balance" required to govern New Brunswick.

"We ask that you avoid a disruptive, public battle that could tear the party apart. We ask that you leave graciously," the letter says.

"You have had some important successes as Premier of New Brunswick. But the moment now demands that you pass the baton and the PCNB reorient itself to face the future and move forward."

The letter is signed by Claude Williams, Lester Young, Brian Harquail and Jason Stephen, all former presidents of the New Brunswick party.

The four former presidents accused Higgs of trying to make the internal fight a fight about Policy 713, the policy on protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools that the government recently revised. 

But they said the problems run deeper and include the premier's attempts to replace French immersion and weaken district education councils and to eliminate elected members of regional health authority boards. 

"Policy 713 was just the tipping point in a long line of disrespect he has shown to our Party, its values and its traditions," they wrote.

Stephen said in an interview that as a party volunteer for more than three decades, it was hard for him to sign the letter.

But he believes the party's future is at stake, including in the next election in October 2024.

"This is going to turn into a very divisive program, I believe. That's why I'm asking him to retire and pass the torch. He can leave a legacy of doing some very good things. But that legacy will be different if he tries to carry a fractured party into the election."

Southwest Miramichi-Bay du Vin MLA Mike Dawson said he's "behind Blaine Higgs 100 per cent" and doesn't understand what Holder's resignation will accomplish.

Since he was elected in a byelection last year, Dawson said, he's been in the Premier's Office many times, discussing issues with Higgs.

"Instead of letting the pot simmer and boil over, you go into the office, you have the discussions and you come out of the office on a level playing field, and everyone understands where each other stands," he said.

Dawson also defended the premier's hands-on approach to governing, which former cabinet minister Dorothy Shephard and others have complained about. 

"Blaine Higgs is the boss of the PC party. He's the CEO," Dawson said.

In a note addressed to the premier, the social development minister said, ‘I can no longer remain in your cabinet.’

Holder's resignation follows that of Shephard, his Saint John colleague who quit last week after she, Holder, two other ministers and two backbench PC MLA defied Higgs during a vote in the legislature.

They joined with the opposition parties to pass a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713. 

Holder said in his letter he now has to do "some significant soul searching" after a 24-year career in the legislature. 

Critics of Higgs within the party have collected 26 letters from presidents of party riding presidents calling for a leadership review.

That's six more than the threshold under the party constitution for the PC provincial council to debate it at an upcoming meeting. 

It also represents a majority of the 49 riding organizations in the province. 

Earlier this week Higgs called the push for a review "a strategically planned political drama" that has been "a focus from a certain group for a few years now" and that was heightened by the Policy 713 debate.

On Thursday two PC caucus members, cabinet minister Réjean Savoie and backbench MLA Sherry Wilson, said they support Higgs staying on.

Wilson said PC MLAs who can't support his leadership "need to go and just retire, just get out of politics, if that's the way they think."

PC caucus members voice support for Higgs amid push for leadership review

Moncton Southwest MLA says rebels should quit politics if they don’t like premier’s approach

Moncton Southwest PC MLA Sherry Wilson says Higgs's record on fiscal management and improving health care is a strong one, and members of the PC caucus who don't like his leadership should quit.

"For the people who don't support our premier, and don't look at the good work and the big picture and what's best for the people we serve here in New Brunswick, I think maybe it's time for them to step away," she said.

Critics of Higgs within the party say they have gathered letters from 26 presidents of PC riding associations and 50 rank-and-file members overall — more than enough to start the process of seeking to remove Higgs.

Those letters were gathered over the last 10 days as a debate over Policy 713, on the protection of LGBTQ students in provincial schools, erupted at the legislature.

Four cabinet ministers and two backbench PC MLAs voted with a Liberal opposition motion calling for consultations, helping to carry the motion 26-20.

Wilson said those Tory MLAs should leave if they can't endorse Higgs's approach.

"To me it's a Conservative value that parents are involved in their children's lives. How do we fix it? I think maybe some of them maybe need to step down. They need to go and just retire, just get out of politics if that's the way they think."

(Shane Magee/CBC)

Former minister Dorothy Shephard quit the cabinet last week but remains a PC MLA.

She said Higgs's handling of Policy 713 was "the last straw" and the latest in a string of examples where he has cut the cabinet and caucus out of decision-making and instead micromanaged issues.

But Wilson defended that approach.

"Blaine has his own leadership style. He does. But look at the work that's been done under his leadership. … He is the premier and he needs to know what's going on in every sector in government," she said. 

"In any of the departments, if something were to go wrong, the bucks stops with him. He needs to know so he can work with us and guide us."

Regional Development Corporation Minister Réjean Savoie, elected last year in a byelection in Miramichi Bay-Neguac, also defended Higgs. 

"The premier has done his job well," Savoie said. "We've never been in such a strong financial position."

He said he worried that the public split would damage the PC party.

"When we have a family disagreement, it should happen behind closed doors. … and the Progressive Conservative party is a family." 

Savoie was among the MLAs who stood behind Higgs in a media scrum minutes after the government lost the vote on the Policy 713 motion last Thursday.

He said the impact of the changes to the policy have been exaggerated. 

"I hope this will end well and we can try to calm things down," he said.

Former PC cabinet minister Jody Carr, whose brother Jeff Carr is a minister in the government and among those who voted for the motion, tweeted Thursday that it was sad to see Higgs "lose the confidence of his party, caucus and citizens, and be the last one to realize it."

Wilson was one of the few PC MLAs who supported Higgs in his campaign for the party leadership in 2016.

She became minister of women's equality and minister of Service New Brunswick when the party took power after the 2018 election, but was shuffled out of the cabinet when the PCs were re-elected in 2020.

The former minister of Service New Brunswick Sherry Wilson never did find my Harley. Perhaps she will now? 
 
 
 
 

Blaine Higgs, a visitor to the PC Party, may soon be shown the door

The premier ran for the party leadership as an outsider. That may now be his undoing

He's like that person who shows up at a house party as a virtual stranger or a new acquaintance barely known to the hosts.

They liven up the evening, but sometimes the party-goers look askance when they become disruptive.

"I did not grow up in a political family," Higgs said when he launched his campaign to win the PC leadership in 2016. "I did not come from deep roots politically."

Higgs had served one term as finance minister in a previous Tory government, but prior to 2010 never held elective office and hadn't even been a PC Party member.

He portrayed himself — accurately — as an outsider, the kind of person the party and the province needed to lead what he called "a movement" to save New Brunswick.

"I have the independence of thinking this province desperately needs," he said.

Now Higgs faces a push from within for a leadership review, with more than half of party riding presidents signing letters to trigger the process.

And his willingness to defy long-established partisan norms is coming back to haunt him.

As minister of finance from 2010 to 2014, that willingness to question the conventional wisdom of party politics was often bracing and refreshing.

Uncomfortable truths

He uttered uncomfortable truths that political veterans never acknowledged: that expensive, poorly thought out campaign promises were responsible for a large part of the province's big deficits and debt.

"It's a case when politicians are the most vulnerable, and people say 'I'll get him to promise this,'" he said.

Premier Higgs says he’s not perfect

Blaine Higgs reacts to a 2021 letter from Dorothy Shephard that said his leadership style 'destroyed' the team around him.

Another example was Higgs's refusal to endorse Premier David Alward's patronage appointment of cabinet minister Margaret-Ann Blaney to a plush Crown CEO job.

Longtime party stalwarts simply don't do that. They fall in line.

Higgs was different. That became his biggest asset, central to his brand.

Even Higgs's past involvement with the anti-bilingualism Confederation of Regions party — alarming to many francophones — underscored that he was truly different.

He once described threatening to resign when political staffers in Alward's office rewrote his budget speech on the eve of its delivery.

They backed off that time, he said, but in 2016 he argued he needed the top job to overcome those tired, same-old political considerations for good.

"I'm running for premier because I can't get it done as finance minister," he said.

Little support from MLAs

Only three sitting PC MLAs endorsed him, an indicator of how his more conventional colleagues saw his maverickness.

So he signed up countless new party members to go around them.

He told those recruits that "it doesn't matter what the party's called — use the PC Party as a conduit to change politics in New Brunswick."

Saint John Lancaster MLA Dorothy Shephard, who quit cabinet last week over Higgs's management style, wrote in a 2021 letter to him that most of his leadership supporters "had never supported the [PC Party] or had any connection to anyone in the party."

And, she added, most of them "are nowhere to be found now."

Most MLAs who worked with Higgs in the Alward cabinet endorsed other leadership candidates in 2016 and chafed at his open disdain for old-fashioned party ways.

"When it's done right … politics is what makes things happen," veteran Portland-Simonds member Trevor Holder said at the time.

"Sometimes that takes political friendships and alliances to get that done." 

WATCH | In May, Higgs called for a controversial review of Policy 713: 

Premier Blaine Higgs defends his government's review of Policy 713

Duration 2:03
Higgs says schools should have to inform parents if a child under 16 wants to change their names or pronouns, and young children should not be exposed to drag queen storytimes.

Holder was among the cabinet ministers who defied Higgs last week to vote for an opposition motion calling for more consultations on changes to LGBTQ protections for students in Policy 713.

Higgs won the leadership and the sceptics fell in line, then watched as his unconventional approach became, in their minds, a political liability.

Criticism from caucus

The main accusation by his caucus critics is that he cuts them out of his decision-making process.

His 2020 push for health reforms — including the proposed closure of small hospital emergency departments — cost him his only francophone MLA at the time, Robert Gauvin.

Gauvin's father was the late Jean Gauvin, a longtime member of Richard Hatfield's cabinet who helped keep the embers of PC support flickering in Shippagan during the party's 12-year exile from power.

Jean Gauvin also stood by Hatfield when party rebels tried to remove him from the leadership in 1985 — so his son's move to the Liberals is another symbol of Higgs's break with party history. 

Another francophone who backed Hatfield during that battle, Jean-Pierre Ouellet from Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston, is now part of the push to dump Higgs, arguing the premier is advancing ideas inimical to the PC Party.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's trying to implement a platform that was the CoR platform when he was campaigning for the CoR party in the 1980s," Ouellete said.

Outsider status could be a threat

So the premier's outsider status — the very thing that propelled him to power — now threatens to undo him.

His best defence is his record: big budget surpluses, a lower provincial debt, low unemployment and unprecedented population growth.

But recent comments by Higgs suggest he doubts any potential new PC leader would live up to what he considers the high standards of success he has achieved.

"That is what's weighing heavy on my mind: are we going to keep the ball rolling or are we going to regress and go back into the political process?"

That's another alarming heresy for party veterans who value continuity, succession planning and long-term political viability.

It's fairly close-up and only the collar of a black blouse with aqua squares and some red patterning is visible.    In her 2021 letter to Higgs, Shephard said that when he launched his leadership bid, she concluded he "didn't want to be leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick; you just wanted to be 'leader.' (Shane Magee/CBC)

Higgs dismissed the review push in a statement Wednesday that did not acknowledge there are letters from a majority of riding presidents.

Instead he called it "a strategically planned political drama" that has been "a focus from a certain group for a few years now," now heightened by the Policy 713 debate.

In her 2021 letter to Higgs, Shephard said that when he launched his leadership bid, she concluded he "didn't want to be leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick; you just wanted to be 'leader.'"

But the two can't be separated: if the push for a leadership review succeeds, Higgs would be facing the end of his tenure as both PC leader and premier.

That's the choice now facing party members: what to do with this guest who, to many, is wearing out his welcome.

C’mon. It’s an article by reporters from the province about the province and talking to the politicians from Higgs’ party. It seems pretty good to this outsider. I mean, what is being reported is happening. It’s not all sunshine and daisies right now for this guy or the party. Higgs has not been listening to his people and is plowing ahead with a very controversial piece of legislation. That’s not smart politics. At the least you need your own team on your side, if you don’t have that then forget it.

Did you know lots of Europe including the Netherlands and the UK are changing the same policy NB just did? The reason being is gender affirmation in children that don't include the parent is not resulting in the outcomes they had expected. It is affecting them negatively. Read a book, NB.

"the Netherlands and the UK are changing the same policy NB just did"

{citation needed}

Higgs came in, like DeSantis and lots of other righties in the US, both barrels blazing. He didn't bother to take the time to have a discussion with people who implemented the policy in the first place, and ask them questions. He's clearly giving in to social conservatives who are simply using this as a wedge to defeat policies that accept the fact that people are non-binary. They see the whole "transition" thing as an easy target, from which they ca make further inroads toward their goal of reversing the entire spectrum of policies that support non-binary citizens.

This issue he has brushed aside as being trendy. His problems do not stem from this issue. This is the camel's straw. It's a governance matter. He's taking his advice from some place outside of NB and bypassing the elected representatives. I understand that Conservatives think they can save face by trying to make this about an issue that polls well for them with their base, but this is a leadership crisis now. Try to stay on point. Higgs has shown himself to be oblivious or flippant to the social question. PR strategizing is all that is occurring with the issue you raise. The recommendations he got from his paid planners bombed as far as I'm concerned. Their national spearhead movement to take on this issue has died in NB just like fracking did. We became world notables in putting an end to the madness, and we ought to keep doing it despite these doomsday prophets telling us we are in need of their savior's medicine.

PC rebels say majority of riding presidents support ousting Higgs

More than 20 riding presidents signed letters, the first step in removing N.B. premier as leader of the party

A member of the party's provincial council says 25 presidents of PC riding associations have signed letters calling for a leadership review vote.

That's a majority out of the 49 ridings. It also surpasses a key threshold in the party's constitution to trigger the process.

"That number constitutes over 50 per cent of riding association presidents and I think it clearly shows there's a desire for a change of leadership amongst the membership," said John Williston, a regional vice-president of the party who supports the review.

"This is from every part of the province. … It's important that this reflects a wide scope of New Brunswick — anglophone, francophone, northern, southern. It shows unity among our party throughout the province."

CBC News has seen and verified 22 of the letters, two more than the number required to advance the issue.

Jean-Pierre Ouellet, president of the Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston riding association and one of the signatories, said Higgs has made too many decisions without consulting the public.

"It's 'my way or the highway,'" he said, pointing to an attempt to replace French immersion, legislation weakening the powers of anglophone district education councils and eliminating elected positions on regional health authority boards.

Surpassing the 20-letter threshold doesn't guarantee a membership vote on Higgs's leadership will be held.

The party constitution requires letters from 20 riding presidents, and 50 party members in total, for the party's provincial council — its governing body — to put the question on its agenda at its next meeting.

No more than five of the 50 members can be from any single riding.

Former party president Claude Williams told Radio-Canada's La Matinale on Wednesday morning that those 50 letters were also in hand.

"We have the numbers," Williams said. "If I were in his place, I'd retire." 

The council must vote by a two-thirds majority to schedule a convention within three months, where delegates would vote on whether to keep or remove Higgs.

Williston, a member of the council, said he believes a two-thirds vote is well within "striking distance."

"With approximately one-third of the caucus voting against the government and not willing to follow the premier at this point, it's quite obvious to me we need a change in leadership in the party."

Reviews are automatic if the party loses an election, but the process is elaborate and time-consuming when it's in power.

The move to dump Higgs is the first organized attempt to remove a sitting New Brunswick premier from their party's leadership since an effort against Premier Richard Hatfield in 1985.

Higgs was elected premier in September 2018 and re-elected two years later. 

Former cabinet minister Dorothy Shephard, who resigned as social development minister last week, said last week that she'd rather see Higgs leave "amicably" than face being ousted.

"I know that the party is mobilizing to consider a leadership review," she said on CBC's Power and Politics. "I'm sure that weighs on his mind."

But Higgs indicated Monday the ball was in the membership's court.

"It won't be a call that I make, right?" he told reporters. "If the party decides to do that, it won't be a decision I make. So if it happens, I guess it happens."

Shephard quit after she and five other PC MLAs, including three other ministers, voted with the opposition for a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713.

The premier said he was willing to face a party review process to defend his position on his controversial review of the policy, which sets out standards for providing safe and inclusive spaces for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

PC Party president Erika Hachey said in an email she has not received any letters yet from riding presidents calling for a review.

The provincial council is scheduled to meet this weekend, but the party constitution requires letters to be submitted 21 days in advance, so the review would only appear on the agenda of the next meeting this fall.

Hachey was unsure exactly how many members sit on the provincial council and what number would constitute two-thirds support for calling a convention.

The council includes the 49 riding presidents, several party officials, including the president and nine regional vice-presidents, five MLAs whom she did not identify, and Higgs himself.

Or

Which is it?

Calling for a review is not the same as calling to push Higgs out as party leader. Seems like a political ploy that is based more on hearsay than fact. Lets see the names of those calling for this review.

PC official wants Blaine Higgs's leadership put to review

PC party official hopes for discussion of N.B. premier's leadership at
annual general meeting

retire ahead of the next election in 2024 or seek another mandate.

A Progressive Conservative party official in southeast New Brunswick
is trying to trigger a review of Premier Blaine Higgs's leadership of
the provincial party.

In an email to fellow party members, Maurice Arsenault, the PC
regional vice-president for southeast New Brunswick, accuses Higgs of
a "dictatorial approach."

He's hoping to rally enough PC members to sign letters to trigger a
discussion of the premier's leadership at the party's annual general
meeting Nov. 4-5 in Fredericton.

"Let me remind it was Blaine Higgs who embraced Dominic Cardy and Kris
Austin without any consultation with our party," Arsenault wrote.

the Tories in March, was sworn into Higgs cabinet the same day Dominic
Cardy resigned. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

Cardy, a former NDP leader, joined the PCs in 2017 but resigned from
Higgs's cabinet last week over the premier's leadership style.

The same day, Austin, a former leader of the People's Alliance who
defected to the Tories in March, was sworn into the cabinet.

"There's a lot of people who are not satisfied, and everybody's
talking about it, and nobody's doing anything about it," Arsenault
told CBC News.

"Then Cardy jumped the boat, and he's not the only one who's
frustrated, so I believe it was time to put my letter forward."
Caucus backs Higgs

Moncton South PC MLA Greg Turner said he convened a meeting of the PC
caucus Monday night after they "got wind" of the letter, and the
support for Higgs was unanimous, with no dissent.

"Without exception, [it was] 100 per cent complete endorsement of the
premier and his leadership for our province, actually," he said.

"Everybody had a chance to speak who wanted to speak on the subject,
and it was very, very positive. Ministers and MLAs alike were unified
in our endorsement of the premier and the work we have done and he has
done in leading us."

caucus Monday night after they “got wind” of the letter and the

Poitras/CBC)

Arsenault, who lives in the riding of Moncton Centre, writes in his
letter that Austin "does not adhere to our party's constitution," a
reference to the Alliance party's opposition to aspects of official
bilingualism.

The PC constitution's principles include a statement that party
members support official bilingualism and the protection and promotion
of "the diversity of our two linguistic communities."

"It was enough to have Kris Austin" as a PC MLA, but "having him as a
minister, I can't stand that," Arsenault said.
Snap vote hurdles

He said he's been told by someone in the party that if he can gather
enough support quickly enough, the leadership question can be put on
the agenda at the annual meeting.

But the hurdles to a snap vote on removing the PC leader are considerable.

Reviews are automatic when the party loses an election, but when it's
in power, 50 party members, including 20 riding association
presidents, must ask the president's council for a vote on a review at
least 21 days before its next meeting.

The president's council is made up of members the party executive, its
regional vice-presidents such as Arsenault and all 49 PC riding
association presidents.

It must vote by a two-thirds margin in favour of a leadership review.
Only then would a vote by all members on ousting Higgs be scheduled
within three months, either at an annual meeting or special meeting.

PC party president Claude Williams says the president's council is
unlikely to meet until December and that means it's impossible for a
leadership review to get on the agenda at the annual meeting.
Debate has been going on for 'last few weeks'

Williams, a former cabinet colleague of Higgs in the David Alward
government, said as party president he cannot take a position on the
premier's leadership.

"The debate's been going on for the last few weeks," he said. "I don't
have an opinion."

Among Arsenault's other complaints is that Higgs has done nothing to
fix health care since firing the two regional health authority boards
in July, and has yet to respond to a review of the Official Languages
Act that was submitted 10 months ago.

He says he's been hearing "for months" from party supporters wanting a
change at the top.

    Health care crisis dominates N.B. Legislature's return

    Cardy says other ministers frustrated with Higgs should quit, too

But Turner says Arsenault is an isolated voice.

"We can't lose sight of the fact that this review call is from one
member of the party. That's how we look at this. I'm sure there's
always people who question the leadership of any organization at
certain times for certain reasons."

Higgs recently told Brunswick News that he'll announce during his
State of the Province speech in the new year whether he plans to
retire ahead of the next election in 2024 or seek another mandate.

But Arsenault says Higgs is "toying with us" and that timing is
"disrespectful" for a potential new party leader who would need to
establish their own agenda before the 2024 election.

Call for review of Blaine Higgs leadership in NB

By Teilor Stonein News
Spread the love

Call for review of Blaine Higgs leadership in NB.

A regional vice-president wants Blaine Higgs to be put to a vote of confidence.

Blaine Higgs, Premier of New Brunswick, at the press scrum at the
Legislative Assembly, in Fredericton, in October 2022.

In a letter addressed to the members of the executive committee of the
Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick and of which
Radio-Canada obtained a copy, a regional vice-president, Maurice
Arsenault, launches an appeal to his peers to initiate a process to
review the leadership of Prime Minister Blaine Higgs.

This call comes a few days after the ex-Minister of Education Dominic
Cardy set fire to the powder by resigning from his post and publishing
an inflammatory letter in which he denounces the actions of Blaine
Higgs. Dominic Cardy has since been kicked out of the Conservative
caucus.

    “For months I have heard [Progressive Conservative Party]
supporters want change at the top. Blaine Higgs must be reminded that
he was not elected Prime Minister, our party was elected to govern
with him as leader. »

    — Maurice Arsenault, Regional Vice-President of Westmorland Albert

In his letter, the Regional Vice-President of Westmorland Albert
denounces the dictatorial approach of the leader. He also criticizes
the arrival of Dominic Cardy and Kris Austin, without any consultation
with the party. He writes that the appointment of Kris Austin as
Minister is once again a snub to Francophones and criticizes the Prime
Minister's management of health.

[Blaine Higgs] is not philosophically aligned to guide a
reconstruction of post-COVID society with all its challenges, he
believes.

Mauritius Arsenault calls on members to send letters to party chairman
Claude Williams by October 28 asking for a leadership review. Maurice
Arsenault himself sent a letter to officially make this request.

Before a review process is launched, other Progressive Conservatives
will have to add their voice to that of Maurice Arsenault.

According to the constitution of the PCNB, a leadership review may
have take place at any time, even when the party forms the government.

To do so, at least fifty party members – including at least 20
constituency presidents – must apply to have the party leadership
review placed on the agenda for the next provincial council meeting.

Party chairman Claude Williams says the next council meeting should
take place before the end of December.

If two-thirds of council members vote in favor of a revision, a
meeting will be convened within three months to hold a secret vote.

In this secret ballot, party members – that is, all citizens
registered as members of the Progressive Conservative Party of New
Brunswick – will be asked to answer the following question: Do you
support [Blaine Higgs ] as Party leader? .

If more than 50% of members say no, a leadership convention will be
held within six months to choose a new leader.

In an interview with Radio-Canada on Monday afternoon, Maurice
Arsenault said he was confident that he would manage to obtain the
necessary mobilization to trigger the process.

I am very confident that I will get the twenties [necessary supports].
Already, I received a dozen comments in my favor and I think the rest
will come, not only from the French-speaking regions, from the
English-speaking regions too, he says.

News Release
Executive Council Office
Office of the Premier
Transition team announced
06 November 2018

FREDERICTON (GNB) – Premier-designate Blaine Higgs announced a
transition team to liaise with the civil service in the period leading
to the swearing-in of the new cabinet.

“A group of talented New Brunswickers have agreed to work with our
government to help ensure a seamless transition,” said Higgs. “These
team members bring decades of experience and expertise in the private
sector, governance and politics to this important process.”

The team members are:

    Louis Léger: With over 25 years of business experience, Léger has
spent  much of his career at the centre of the Atlantic Canadian
marketing communications industry and was recognized by Progress
Magazine as one of Atlantic Canada’s top 50 CEOs. Léger is on the
board of directors and chairs the finance committee of the Donald J.
Savoie Institute on Public Policy Research. He has also served on the
Université de Moncton’s board of governors.

    John Mallory: A retired deputy minister of finance, Mallory served
for 15 years under six premiers and seven finance ministers.

    Edith Doucet: Doucet has 33 years of experience in the public
service, including time as clerk of the Executive Council and head of
the civil service. She also served as deputy minister of social
development, healthy and inclusive communities and intergovernmental
affairs.

    Bob Youden: Youden is a partner in Savarin Consulting, a
consulting and holding company for business interests. He has over 30
years of experience working in the private and public sectors.

    Paul D’Astous: A retired chair and CEO with the New Brunswick
Insurance Board and former vice-president of sales and marketing with
Assumption Life, D’Astous is the executive director of the Progressive
Conservative Party of New Brunswick.

“Premier Gallant and I have met to discuss the transition and I want
to thank Mr. Gallant and the senior officials in the civil service for
the work they have done,” said Higgs.

Cash-strapped PCs 'working hard' on building campaign war chest

The Opposition party applied for government assistance to hire staff last year

Money was so tight at New Brunswick Progressive Conservative headquarters last year the party successfully applied for $4,700 in government wage assistance to help hire staff and had so many overdue bills it spent almost as much on late charges as it did on heat and lights.

Bob Hatheway acknowledges 2017 was a financial challenge for the PCs, but the party's long-time official agent and Fredericton businessman is confident it will be able to raise the substantial sums it needs this year to fight an effective province-wide election campaign — even with tough new donation rules.

"The party fundraising team has been working hard on that," said Hatheway.   

"I have every expectation that as the election writ drops we'll be fully funded for our budget we need for fighting the election."

Huge Liberal advantage

Raising money is traditionally difficult for opposition parties in New Brunswick, but the financial gap at the end of 2017 between governing Liberals, who had $1.8 million in the bank, and Opposition Tories, who had $13,000 and change in their accounts, looks especially daunting heading into this year's election season.

Progressive Conservatives raised $1.5 million to help fight the last election in 2014, but 54 per cent of that came from corporate donations which are now banned in the province. Maximum donations from individuals have also been lowered from $6,000 to $3,000.

That will limit how much money can be raised this year and could lead to a no-frills campaign for the party as it tries to live on what it can coax from individuals or qualify for in reimbursements from Elections New Brunswick to finance everything it does.

"I don't know that we'll be able to reach that past level. I do know we are being very conscientious of what our budget is," said Hatheway. 

"The amount of money that any of the other parties have is not really too relevant to us because we have a budget that's in place for our own purposes and we're going to be able to raise the money that's needed for that."

Hatheway wouldn't say what that budget is, but the party has spent more than $3 million in each of the last two election years, most of that on the campaign. 

In each of those campaigns, the party ended up borrowing money to supplement fundraising but, at the end of 2017, still owed $256,405 from past loans and is trying to avoid more debt this time.

"Our intention is to spend money we do have," said Hatheway

"The fundraising has been going very well. I'm quite excited about how it's going."

713 is a bullshit policy for all this controversy,  in reality it relaxed the rules for older kids. As for the rest of the email, I'm not sure what you are saying.

Do you really think school districts have the power to change policy?
Thisisnothing more than sabre rattling by people who think they are
above the rule of law. BTW current policy is, all students can request
teachers, staff, and administrators address them by their chosen
pronouns and preferred name but require parental permission to change
said names and pronouns on their Official Record. The new policy
allows those that are 16 and up to change their Official Record but
those under 16 still require Parental Consent.See how the media has
misrepresented the facts of this?

Francophone DEC joins effort to undo government changes to gender-identity policy

3 DECs have again made it mandatory to respect all students' chosen pronouns regardless of age

It's the first francophone DEC to confirm it will be taking action against the changes to Policy 713, joining the Anglophone East and Anglophone South councils.

In a statement, chair Michel Côté said the idea of the revised policy coming into effect as it is on July 1 causes the board "great discomfort."

"Having not been consulted during the policy review process, and fearing that it could jeopardize the health and safety of members of our school community, the DEC … voted unanimously to develop its own policy on sexual orientation and gender identity," he said.

This month, Education Minister Bill Hogan said he amended the policy to ban teachers and staff from using a child under 16's chosen name and pronoun, even informally and verbally, unless parents consent. 

It has always been mandatory to get parental consent to change a child under 16's name on official documentation like report cards, but Hogan said he's now extending that to even informal name and pronoun changes.

Under the revised policy, if a child says no to including parents, they're to be "directed" to a school psychologist or social worker to come up with a plan to eventually include the parents. 

Changes could increase risk of self harm

The New Brunswick Association of School Psychologists has come out against these changes, saying it's forcing students to choose between coming out to their parents when they're not yet ready, or having their identity rejected by staff.

"Misgendering transgender and gender diverse people increases risk of self-harm, suicidal ideation, and other mental health concerns," the association previously said.

WATCH Catch up on why the N.B. government changed a policy aimed at protecting LGBTQ students

CBC News Explains: How did the New Brunswick government change Policy 713?

Duration 2:19
New Brunswick's Department of Education made several changes to a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students, affecting sections on self-identification, extracurricular activities and washrooms.

The union for school psychologists and social workers has filed two grievances against the policy, saying it makes them complicit in harming children and is coercing them into contravening the Human Rights Act. It said it was not consulted on the policy review and its members will be verbally respecting a child's request for a different pronoun regardless of parental consent.

District education councils are allowed to develop policies and procedures that are consistent with the provincial policy or are even more comprehensive. 

Removing age requirement

Last week, Anglophone East and Anglophone South did so by passing policies that effectively use the old wording, mandating that school staff verbally respect all students' choice of name or pronoun regardless of age or parental consent.

Francophone South DEC is now doing the same.

It said it is currently working on the policy wording, which will come into effect this fall.

As part of controversial changes, Hogan also removed any reference to gender identity in Policy 713's wording about about extracurricular activities.

All three DECs are restoring that reference, mandating that students will be able to participate in extracurricular activities that are safe, welcoming, and "consistent with their gender identity."

Anglophone West DEC said it will be discussing the issue at its upcoming meeting this week. It has also previously criticized the revised policy.

Dispelling myths about shale gas

A special series of essays from citizens on the issue of shale gas exploration

Ed Armstrong is a retired civil servant, who is living in Sussex.

Armstrong worked for Department of Transportation as a heavy equipment technician for 24 years and two years as assistant to the district systems analyst.  From 1983 to 2000, he was on the provincial executive of the Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 1190 and also served as a first vice-president.

Armstrong is concerned the debate over the future of New Brunswick's shale gas industry is being dominated by a series of myths.

The former civil servant writes that there are reasonable questions surrounding the industry but he argues the debate should be centred on facts.

Let me begin by saying, I’m not totally convinced that shale gas extraction in its current form is 100 per cent safe and foolproof, nor do I think it has to be to work in New Brunswick. 

I do feel, however, that any company doing business in the proposed gas fields of New Brunswick had better be prepared to do it better than they have ever been required to before now. I’d also expect as new technologies are developed and certified, that these will become the norm in New Brunswick. In other words we want the best available practices in place all the time not yesterday’s best still in use tomorrow.

We all have read, heard, and watched countless stories concerning the pros and cons of "fracking." To quote the middle school principal at the time my girls were in his school, "There are two sides to every story and somewhere in the middle lies the truth."

Here is the inherent problem with a debate based on passion, not facts where both sides claim to have the "true facts" on the issue, reminding me of one more quote, this one attributed to President Barack Obama, "You Are entitled to your opinion, you are not entitled to your facts". 

What I hope to do is provide, what in my opinion, the true and accurate facts in fracking are, dispel the facts that can’t stand up to true scientific scrutiny by supplying links to the proof from sources beyond reproach.

Certain research circulating out there in the vastness of the internet is accepted as fact based solely on the fact that the link was found through a credible search engine, but let’s separate fact from fiction and see where we end up.

Debunking Gasland

My first issue deals with the movie Gasland. There are just as many webpages devoted to debunking the movie as there are web pages supporting it or debunking the debunkers.

However, I offer you one link that takes you to specific incidents in the movie and offers sources where the statements range from outright falsehoods to very strongly slanted.  This article was the first Google listing under the search term debunking gasland. I suggest everyone check out the links they provide and form your own opinions.

I for one have a strong tendency to believe various non connected state and provincial agencies who investigate a problem within their jurisdiction and all come to the same conclusions. I have a hard time embracing the environmental movement whose main tactic, when challenged, is to provide only like-minded defence of their positions without seeking the research by well-respected educational and technical colleges and universities.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) released a far-reaching paper on the future of natural gas in 2010  and its conclusions on shale gas are included in that report that you can view or download. A summary of those findings appeared in  The Engineer. The magazine was launched in 1856 and is the only magazine serving the U.K.'s engineering technology community. 

Deconstructing the protesters

My second issue deals with the NIMBY’s, the BANANA’s and the professional "Anti Everything" protesters.

NIMBY, an acronym for Not in My Back Yard.

These individuals have a point to a degree; no one wishes to have an industrial plant butting up against their immediate property. 

However, if said industrial facility meets every requirement under provincial and federal law and there aren’t any zoning issues (i.e., rural areas) then beside NIMBYs what is there to stop the establishment of this plant? Nothing and that is the way it should be.

BANANA, an acronym for Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anything.

These individuals and groups seem to cause the most harm. Regardless of the development, they are opposed. Why?

Some people have a personal issues with the development, others opposed in general because anything from big business can’t be good (businesses lie) and still others are opposed to anything that has any potential whatsoever to harm the environment while others just oppose for the sake of opposing.

This brings me to my third and final category of protester. The Professional.

These people have for the past several years protested anything and everything just because they can. It makes no difference what the cause, but you will see certain individuals in every community front and centre at the microphones or in front of the cameras making sure they get their 15 seconds of fame with the sound bite.

These people in my opinion usually have no stake in the issue at hand, but they are dammed sure they will be seen and heard on as many media outlets that are willing to broadcast their drivel.

Looking for strong leadership

I came across an article in the New York Times and I found a very interesting quote that sums up those opposed to fracking, "There’s no arguing with a person who is opposed to hydrofracking." This pretty well sums it up in less than a dozen words.

There is another statement made in that article from the dairy farmer that is the centre of the story, "This land and my family are my life," Ms. Huntington said. "We probably use three to four million gallons of water to feed my cows. I’m not going to spoil something I need to make my living and for future generations to come."

Again, this lady speaks for most of us on the pro side, we would no more want the natural gas industry to ruin our communities with an environmental disaster than we would want our neighbour to lose his job or have his house burn down.

We are all in and from the area, some of us have roots going back more than 200 years. We want this development, but we only want it if it can be done in a safe responsible manner by companies committed to doing the same.

We are also looking at our government to show strong leadership. 

Along with the very stringent regulations and strict enforcement through rigorous inspection, we expect that the royalties derived from this venture will be more than a few token coins but all stakeholders will derive significant benefit from the development of what appears to be a very significant natural gas area.

Higgs compromises on language law, but not enough for Liberals, Greens

Premier’s amendments to bill restore mandatory 10-year review of the act

Premier Blaine Higgs announced five amendments Tuesday afternoon during a committee session examining the legislation.

Four of them deal with reinstating a mandatory review of the act after 10 years, a review Higgs had wanted to remove.

The premier told the committee he was bringing back the review "upon reflection and listening to the many comments that were expressed" after the bill was introduced in March.

The opposition Liberals, the Greens and the Acadian Society of New Brunswick all denounced the elimination of the mandatory review as a weakening of the legislation, which lays out the province's obligation to communicate with the public in both English and French.

Higgs had argued that a newly created languages secretariat within the civil service would be enough to ensure the bill is regularly re-examined and updated, but he eventually gave ground.

"We believe that a 10-year cycle, combined with the role of the secretariat and the fact that a review can be done at any time, will be sufficient and will address concerns expressed regarding the lack of mandatory review," he said Tuesday.

The Liberals and Greens said Higgs had spurned their efforts to meet and craft the wording of the amendments together, and it was unlikely they'd be able to vote for the bill, even with the review restored.

Liberal Leader Susan Holt pointed out that every version of the act and every major change over more than five decades has won the unanimous support of all MLAs in the legislature.

"Now that this government isn't interested in collaborating and in unifying the province ... I'm disappointed," she told reporters. 

Green MLA Kevin Arseneau said putting the mandatory review back in would not represent a strengthening of the bill to address the fact that francophones still don't always get equal service in their language.

"Status quo, when you don't have substantive equality, status quo is actually a step back," he said.

"I'm not voting for a step back. My caucus is not voting for a step back. We have decided we're not going back."

The mood in the committee session turned tense late Tuesday as several opposition MLAs accused Higgs of refusing to listen to them and of not understanding minority francophone language concerns.

The Liberals tried to amend Higgs's amendments to require the review every seven years, but the Progressive Conservative majority on the committee voted that down.

Instead, they adopted wording that requires whoever is premier to initiate the next review so that it's finished by Dec. 31, 2031.

The committee approved four of Higgs's five amendments, but wasn't able to finish its review of the legislation and vote before its scheduled adjournment time at 6 p.m.

After the committee eventually votes on the amended bill, it will send it back to the legislature for third reading and a final vote.

Both parties had wanted the law to establish a permanent committee of the legislature on official languages, but Higgs rejected that.

According to Green Leader David Coon, Higgs said a committee of the legislature would "duplicate work and weigh down current processes."

A fifth amendment introduced by Higgs on Tuesday clarifies how the official languages commissioner will describe complaints in their annual reports.

The original bill, introduced by Higgs in March, said the commissioner would identify the "origin" of a complaint — raising concerns that could identify complainants who are supposed to be guaranteed confidentiality.

The premier's amendment removed the reference to the "origin" of a complaint.

All government services are to be provided in both official languages. This is also creeping into private business. We have and English school system and a French school system. If one parent speaks French or attended a French school you qualify for the French school system and if you are an immigrant you get to choose which school system you want your child to attend no matter what language your family speaks. Our healthcare system is also two systems. One English and one French system but both are to supply bilingual services.

Wriitten to appease one group of people , just not ALL NBers . It's been abused for decades . One just need look at the Mckenna Liberals annual " trade missions " to France , or their paying hundreds of millions to companies ( most American servicing American consumers ) to bring low paying call center jobs to NB in the guise of our " bilingual capacity " . Companies and jobs that disappeared once all the financial giveaways were used up ! Wonder where those so called " bilingual jobs went ? Most , back to the US !

Apparently maintaining the "status quo" (which Higgs should have done in the first place) is a "step back" for Arsenault (no big surprise there). Susan Holt talks in circles and nobody listens to Coon.

Looks like the NB political status quo is very much intact.

"Ministers who can't publicly support a government policy or decision would normally be expected to resign, Wright said.

"But Higgs will be feeling the heat," he added. "Politically, it's never good to lose or fire a cabinet minister. And he certainly doesn't want to precipitate a caucus revolt."

Former education minister Dominic Cardy, who quit last fall over proposed changes to French immersion, says there are plenty of reasons why ministers are reluctant to resign.

"You lose a very large chunk of your salary, you lose access to a government car, different benefits," he said.

"But in the end, what's the point of this job? The point of being an elected official is to serve the people of the province."

A wave of departures could either force Higgs back to the more moderate style he adopted early in his term or push him out, Cardy said."

Poilievre tells Trudeau to 'butt out' of New Brunswick's policy on LGBTQ students

'Let parents raise kids,' he said while addressing controversial changes to policy on LGBTQ students

Federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Tuesday the prime minister has no business weighing in on New Brunswick's Policy 713 on LGBTQ students and called on Justin Trudeau to "let parents raise kids."

The policy was designed to protect LGBTQ students in schools. But earlier this year, New Brunswick's Progressive Conservative government made changes that, in part, mean teachers are no longer required to use the chosen names and pronouns of transgender or non-binary students under 16 without parental consent.

At a Tuesday event in Moncton critiquing carbon taxation and the cost of living, Poilievre was asked whether he stands with New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs on the changes to Policy 713. He called it "provincial policy."

"I know that Justin Trudeau has butted into that. The prime minister has no business in decisions that should rest with provinces and parents," he said.

"So my message to Justin Trudeau is, 'Butt out and let provinces run schools and let parents raise kids.'"

Poilievre: PM has 'no business' in N.B. gender identity policy debate

Duration 0:28
Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre says the prime minister needs to let 'provinces run schools and parents raise children.'

Turmoil in Higgs government

The changes to Policy 713 prompted backlash from within Higgs's own cabinet, including numerous resignations by ministers who objected to his leadership style. On Tuesday morning, Higgs shuffled his cabinet to replace two ministers who voted against him on a resolution calling for more consultations on the school gender-identity policy.

Trudeau weighed in on the policy at a Pride event in Toronto about three weeks ago.

"Right now," he said, "trans kids in New Brunswick are being told they don't have the right to be their true selves, that they need to ask permission.

"Trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians. We need to stand against this."

In a tweet, federal Labour Minister Seamus O'Regan attacked Poilievre for his comments on Tuesday. He said not all parents are accepting and not all homes are safe, so schools should be both.

Higgs again defended the policy change during an interview with CBC's Power and Politics on Tuesday. He said "parents need to have a voice" and insisted he's taking "a balanced approach."

He said he's seeing "a tremendous outpouring of support" for his position.

"Nationally, people are saying, 'Why wouldn't parents play a role?'" he said.

Blaine Higgs drops 2 rebellious ministers in cabinet shuffle

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr are out, replaced by newcomers

Premier Blaine Higgs has reasserted his authority over his fractured Progressive Conservative government by dumping two ministers who voted against him on the contentious issue of New Brunswick's school gender-identity policy.

In a cabinet shuffle Tuesday, Higgs dropped Local Government Minister Daniel Allain and Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Jeff Carr, sending them to the backbenches.

He made it clear that their breaking ranks in a key vote on Policy 713 had cost them their jobs, violating the principle of cabinet solidarity.

"To go outside of that and to basically feel that it doesn't matter if you're in cabinet or not — it does matter. And to not address the situation is really putting the government in a very vulnerable position," Higgs told reporters after a 9 a.m. swearing-in.

"We have to respect the parliamentary system that we're in, the sanctity of cabinet, and the fact we'll have very frank and open discussion in cabinet or in caucus, but in cabinet you have to have solidarity."

The new additions to cabinet are Carleton-York MLA Richard Ames, Moncton South MLA Greg Turner and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus. All are first-timers as ministers. 

Rejoining cabinet are Moncton Southwest MLA Sherry Wilson, who was in cabinet from 2018 to 2020, and Oromocto-Lincoln-Fredericton MLA Mary Wilson, who was shuffled out of cabinet last fall.

Allain and Carr make four ministers no longer in Higgs's cabinet.

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr are out of New Brunswick’s cabinet. Replacing them are new additions including Carleton-York MLA Richard Ames, Moncton South MLA Greg Turner and St. Croix MLA Kathy Bockus.

The two other ministers, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, resigned, both of them citing Higgs's leadership style that they said was at odds with the values and traditions of the PC party.

All four voted with the opposition parties on June 15 to help pass a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

Higgs claimed that day that the vote was not whipped, but he said Tuesday "I never made it a free vote, either."

WATCH | Catch up on why the N.B. government changed a policy aimed at protecting LGBTQ students

CBC News Explains: How did the New Brunswick government change Policy 713?

Duration 2:19
New Brunswick's Department of Education made several changes to a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students, affecting sections on self-identification, extracurricular activities and washrooms.

In the past, the premier has often tolerated minor acts of dissent in his cabinet and caucus, referring to it as "a diverse group" that has pushed the envelope the same way he did when he was the outspoken finance minister in the Alward government. 

But on Policy 713 Higgs has signalled he was losing patience.

"To take a position against the government in the legislature, voting in the legislature, is very significant," he said Tuesday.

Carr and Allain both said Tuesday they understood from Higgs that it was to be a free vote. 

"Obviously the definition of free vote differs from one individual to another," Allain said.

Both former ministers said they were questioning their futures in politics.

Allain said he was pondering whether "maybe there are other ways" for him to serve, given the party "is in a crisis. … I'm asking the question: is it worth the fight?"

He wouldn't say whether he supports the push for a review of Higgs's leadership.

Carr said he won't run in next year's provincial election if the premier is still leading the party.

He said he was disappointed but understands why he was removed from cabinet and did not regret his vote on Policy 713.

Carr insisted that the opposition motion called for exactly what the PC caucus had been promised by Higgs — a role for the child and youth advocate in determining if the policy changes were legally sound. 

He also wished the new ministers well in Higgs's cabinet.

"If they feel satisfied with that type of leadership and governing, then that's okay. I don't judge them for that." 

Higgs told reporters after the shuffle he'll try to reach out to unhappy grassroots members of the Progressive Conservative party, some of whom are organizing to remove him as leader

"I think we have some building to do, there's no question of that," Higgs said.

"I need to play a key role in that, reaching out to the membership, the executives throughout the province, and be able to sit down and have some very good discussions." 

New ministers proclaim support for premier

"I can guarantee you he doesn't have to ask me" about my loyalty, Mary Wilson told reporters.

"I have no problem with our premier. I think he does a great job."

Ames proclaimed that "it's a new day, a new team, new cabinet, great caucus — we're moving forward."

And Turner, who chaired the PC caucus until Tuesday, rejected the claims by Shephard and Holder that Higgs didn't listen to his MLAs.

CBC Explains: How does a leadership review work?

The CBC’s Jacques Poitras walks us through each step the PC party must go through to remove a sitting premier.

"In any caucus meetings I was in, absolutely. I was in all the caucus meetings. Absolutely," he said.

"Like any team, there has been a leader and there has been people who support the leader," Turner said. "I have full confidence in his leadership abilities for sure. There's no question about that."

Ames replaces Carr as minister of transportation and infrastructure, while Saint John East MLA Glen Savoie gets a promotion by taking over Allain's local government portfolio.

Allain was the senior francophone minister in government, representing a language community with few MLAs in the PC caucus.

"He'll continue to be a valued member in our caucus and I'm sure he'll continue to represent the community," Higgs said.

Carr, Allain, Shephard, Holder and two other ministers, Arlene Dunn and Jill Green, signed a statement earlier this month complaining about a lack of transparency and process in the government's review of Policy 713.

Dunn, who missed the June 15 vote but said the next day she'd have voted with the opposition, remains in cabinet and takes over the post-secondary education, labour and training duties that Holder held.

Asked why he kept her in cabinet, Higgs told reporters that "I know if someone had been there, they might have done differently … but the fact is they weren't there and they didn't stand against the government."

Dunn told reporters after the cabinet shuffle that her issue had been with Policy 713.

"I didn't think we should have touched that. I think we should have stayed away from it," she said.

But beyond that, "I do have confidence in the leadership of the premier."

Green also missed the June 15 vote and later said she didn't know how she would have voted. 

She's been promoted to minister of social development and also holds on to the housing file, with her provincial housing strategy expected to be released this week.

Opposition Liberal leader Susan Holt did not mention the internal PC party turmoil in a tweet congratulating the new ministers.

"Our team is ready to work with you to address the issues most important to New Brunswickers," she wrote.

New minister responsibilities:

  • Richard Ames — Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, former backbencher.
  • Jill Green — Minister of Social Development and responsible for Economic and Social Inclusion Corporation; still responsible for New Brunswick Housing Corporation,but no longer the Minister of Service New Brunswick. 
  • Arlene Dunn — Minister of Post-Secondary Education, Training and Labour, remains Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Minister responsible for Immigration; no longer responsible for Economic Development and Small Business and Opportunities N.B.
  • Greg Turner — Minister responsible for Opportunities N.B. and Economic Development and Small Business, former backbencher.
  • Glen Savoie — Minister of Local Government and still responsible for la Francophonie.
  • Mary Wilson — Minister of Service New Brunswick and responsible for Military Affairs; former backbencher shuffled out of cabinet last fall.
  • Tammy Scott-Wallace — remains Minister of Tourism, Heritage and Culture, but no longer Minister responsible for Women's Equality.
  • Sherry Wilson — Minister responsible for Women's Equality and for Addictions and Mental Health Services; minister from 2018 to 2020 who became a backbencher after the 2020 election.
  • Kathy Bockus — Minister responsible for Seniors, former backbencher.

What if a new right wing political party is created in NB and Higgy dissolves the PC Party like his buddy Austin did with the PANB recently and MacKay did 20 years ago?

If there is a leadership convention than that is a distinct possibility but there has to be a vacancy at the top first and with 15 months to go before an election, there is no way to dispose of the current leader, hold a leadership race and convention and have the new leader prepared to fight an election and win. Danny Boy is not stupid enough to cut off his nose to spite his face. He's a much smarter man than I am (I think), if I can read the timeline, I'm sure he can as well. He would be in much better shape to wait till after the Sept 2024 election and step into a leadership race at that point if a vacancy at the top occurs.

No, only the party can dump the leader. That is the big difference between Britian's Westminster System and Canada's. Britian's Caucus does elect the leader and can dump them at any time. In Canada all Party Members have the right to vote for their leader and under the rules can bit them out as well. I definitely like our rules better.

That was then and this is now. Even Poitras now seems to understand who Higgs is. Half the PCs in the province (over half of the local riding presidents have asked him to resign) will stay home if an election is called. That is an opinion and not fact.

They will be bolstered by the fact that Susan Holt and the Liberals have not given any reason for them or us to think she/they will govern much differently then the PCs. In that they will keep the fee cuts for billionaires on crown land, and tax free living for the Irving enterprises.

NBers should make sure that neither the Liberals or the Conservatives get a majority the next time we vote. Look what happens when we don't do that. The premier of the day begins to think that the province belongs to him/her and their advisors.

You’re right, the Liberals under Holt need to prove that they are not the Party of the past. They have to show NBers that the billionaires will finally lose power, that regular folks will not be footing the bills while watching our services collapse. Watching the Legislature (as little of it there is) there seems to be hope in some of these new Liberal MLAs and Leader. Now they have to start proving it’s for real, not something that disappears the minute they take power. NBs are fed up with that scenario.

And you’re absolutely right on the need for a Minority Government. Ross Wetmore said in the Legislature that for all his years (13) in Government, the 2018 Minority Government was the best he had worked in. He seemed very emotional about what has become of Government in NB.

Reply to Andrew Martin
Over half the party ridings are calling for a leadership review, that's a fact, and also shows significant disappointment within the party. At least a third of his Cabinet, at least until this move, was also in open rebellion against him. That certainly shows a significant level of disappointment within his own elected members.

Your provided "fact" is a vote that is only for his riding, not for him as leader. In Alberta Kenney's UPC got elected with a strong majority yet he was ousted by his party. What you've outlined as "fact" is basically the scenario that happened in Alberta. 

 
Andrew Martin
Reply to Robert Borden 
I guess we'll see what happen with the next election. The ridings may be calling for a review, but are the actual voters calling for it? We dont really know 100%, we can estimate, poll etc, but we dont really know whats on every voters mind until election time.

Winning a democratically instituted voting system where you win the majority of votes should be enough evidence of the majority agreeing. Therefore its not an opinion, but a fact.

Higgs's job is to represent the views of the people who voted for him. If he caves, it will be a huge disappointment for those who voted for him. If necessary, he may need to call an election to prove this.
 
 
Robert Borden 
Reply to Andrew Martin
Again, voters vote for their MLA, the party votes for the leader. Even if voters want the conservatives to remain in power, it doesn't mean they want Higgs as their premier.

Same thing happened in Alberta with Kenney, and quite possibly will happen with Smith, and I'd even go so far as including the federal Liberals with Trudeau.

Higgs doesn't seem to have the support of his party and it could be completely irrelevant what the voters want. If the party wants him out, he'll be gone.

 
Andrew Martin
Reply to Robert Borden
And if the voters wanted him running it and the party votes him out, then they may get voted out 


Donald LeBlanc 
Reply to Andrew Martin
It’s also a fact that the unvaccinated Pandemic Election Majority was won with 26% of eligible voters. This was after success in a Minority Government scenario with Higgs near the top in the approval rating polls. The opinion is that after receiving his Majority it seems that was the beginning of his missteps and downward trend, IMO.

Higgs accused of launching 'vicious' attack on PC critic during Saturday meeting

Former president tells premier to ‘get over it’ ahead of Tuesday cabinet shuffle

Two ministers, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, have resigned from his cabinet in the last two weeks over their concerns about his approach.

Higgs's spokesperson Nicolle Carlin told CBC News on Monday morning that the premier will shuffle his cabinet on Tuesday.

Two other ministers, Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr, joined Shephard and Holder in voting against the government on June 15.

Daniel Allain comments on an internal battle within New Brunswick's governing Progressive Conservative party. Premier Blaine Higgs has come under fire inside caucus and across the party.

Allain said Monday afternoon he hadn't been told yet if he'd still be a minister on Tuesday.

"There's a process," he said at a news conference in Grand Bouctouche. "We serve at the pleasure of the premier."

Allain and the three other ministers helped to pass an opposition Liberal motion calling for further consultations on the government's Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ+ students in schools.

The CBC’s Jacques Poitras walks us through each step the PC party must go through to remove a sitting premier.

All four helped to pass an opposition Liberal motion calling for further consultations on the government's Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in schools.

That vote crystallized a growing discontent within the party that Shephard said goes far beyond just Policy 713.

Former party president Claude Williams said last week that there are letters from presidents of 26 PC riding associations asking for a leadership review — more than the 20 required to force the provincial council to vote on whether to hold a vote.

Higgs looks at 'path forward'

Williston said the letters weren't submitted at Saturday's meeting because the number continues to grow, with two more presidents signing on after the meeting because of the premier's behaviour.

Higgs said on Saturday that there was "a good frank open discussion here and I think we have a path forward."

Asked about Williams telling reporters he was disappointed in comments by the premier in the meeting, Higgs said his remarks were "about team building, it was about us working together and having good discussions internally." 

But Williston said Higgs's comments were "almost borderline shocking." 

WATCH | In May, Higgs called for a controversial review of Policy 713: 

Premier Blaine Higgs defends his government's review of Policy 713

Duration 2:03
Higgs says schools should have to inform parents if a child under 16 wants to change their names or pronouns, and young children should not be exposed to drag queen storytimes.

He also said the premier's critics tried to introduce a motion to schedule a special meeting of the council before the fall to deal with the leadership review issue but were ruled out of order based on procedure.

"Some people in the party are trying to to rag the puck," he said.

PC party president Erika Hachey, who ran Saturday's meeting, said Monday morning she had no comment on Williston's description of the discussion.

Williston said Higgs claimed in the meeting he was blameless for the party's poor election showings in francophone New Brunswick, pointing the finger instead at what he called negative coverage in the French-language newspaper L'Acadie Nouvelle.

​A​re the days numbered for Blaine Higgs as leader of New Brunswick's PC party? ​Jeanne Armstrong spoke to two party members who say it's time for the Premier to take a final bow. ​John Williston, a regional vice-president with the party, and Brian Harquail, former PC party president and one of the people who signed the letter calling for Higgs to resign.

Former PC party president Brian Harquail, who did not attend the meeting, told Information Morning that if Higgs can't unite his caucus and his party, he doesn't deserve to be governing New Brunswick. 

"I was elected twice as president and we have a reputation of eating our young, and blaming somebody else for our own mistakes," he said.

"Well, it's time we took control and started to lead the party in the right direction."

'Things are going to escalate'

Harquail was one of four former presidents who signed a letter last week calling on Higgs to resign to avoid a divisive, drawn-out leadership review fight.

He scoffed at Higgs blaming negative media coverage for his lack of popularity in francophone New Brunswick.

"To attack the newspaper for doing their job is childish and shows a very, very strong lack of leadership," he said.

"Get over it, Blaine, because that's life and that's the way it is. And you wanted the job, so let's get on with it."

Williston said far from calming down, he believes that "things are going to escalate" in the party's internal battle. 

He said the premier will eventually have to realize that he can no longer govern and that an election would be a risk now because many PC members in local riding associations won't work for him as leader.

Alward appoints faithful to key positions

CBC News · Posted: Oct 14, 2010 6:49 AM ADT

New Brunswick Premier David Alward appointed Tory faithful to key deputy minister posts Thursday, reversing a vow to change the way in which appointments are made by the provincial government.

The appointments include Daniel Allain to the key position of president and chief executive officer of NB Liquor. Dana Clendenning, the Liberal-appointed president of the Crown corporation, left his position last week with a taxpayer-funded severance package.

Previous premiers Shawn Graham and Bernard Lord both selected party loyalists for the job, which pays between $150,000 and $175,000 per year.

What has Higgs done for renewables in NB?

2016 was the first year when there were more people employed in renewable energy worldwide than there were in oil and gas worldwide.

Since then the job growth in renewables has continued to grow. But Higgs head was firmly stuck in the oilsands and NB has lost out on huge, well-paid job growth opportunities in renewables. Time for him to go.

Our total renewable capacity in 2018 stood at 30.6%, in 2023 it now stands at 40.4%. Conversely, our Oil and Diesel was at 35.2%, it is now 15.5%. Looks like that debt clock needs another adjustment.

This article is about internal party frictions. How is Trudeau acting like a Conservative? There is little comparable internal friction within the Liberal Party. Alberta's Premier is watching behind her back and Higgs seems to be now too, both conservatives. And of course we can imagine that there might still be a few real conservatives out there who might fundamentally disagree with the direction the federal party is headed.

I'm not sure who you are David Amos, but you and most of your follows do
not seem to understand the procedure spelled out in the constitution of
the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick for making a
leadership review happen. If and when these so called letters are
delivered to the president of the Party and the numbers meet the
criteria then and only then will the process begins. The first step of
this procedure could be referred to as "a shot across the bow". When you
read the constitution you will see that the process maybe aborted at the
next step if a 2/3 majority of the Provincial Council is not achieved.
After attending the meeting on Saturday, I'm not sure if a 2/3 majority
can be achieved. In the mean time, Premier Higgs will be working on
resolving the rifts in his caucus. We will see how that goes. He does
appear to be remorseful and sincerely interested in changing his
management style. He does recognize many of his mistakes and I guess
that would be the first step.

I also want to tell you that under no circumstances is Dominic Cardy or
Jody Carr spokesmen for the PC Party of New Brunswick. Even though they
are members of PCNB, both of these gentleman are in the political
wilderness and are only commenting to the media for their own self
interests, not the Party. Mr Cardy claims he is a member in good
standing of PCNB. Member yes, good standing NO. I have talked with many,
many members of the Party in the past year and only one admits to being
an ally of Mr Cardy.  I have no idea why the media flocks to him each
time there is a new development in New Brunswick politics. His opinion
has zero value to most people in the Province. If the media wanted to
renew their credibility they would stop interviewing him.

Toronto is hosting Pride celebrations this weekend, but it comes at a
time where advocates say trans people are being targeted and harmful
rhetoric is on the rise.

In New Brunswick, the provincial government's decision to change an
education policy on gender identity has caused significant controversy
and even turmoil within the government. The changes make it mandatory
for teachers to get parental consent before using a student's chosen
name and pronouns.

School psychologists as well as child welfare, education and human
rights experts have all come out against these changes.

Our question this week: Is Canada becoming more or less accepting of
LGBTQ rights? What conversations are you having?

PC rebels say majority of riding presidents support ousting Higgs
 
 
 

Premier Higgs says he won't resign after calls for his removal

Higgs intends to stay on even after the resignations of 2 cabinet ministers

When asked what's next for him and the party, Higgs batted down any suggestion of stepping aside.

"It won't be a resignation," Higgs said.

The premier has been under pressure to step aside after changes to Policy 713 — a policy designed to protect LGBTQ students in schools — prompted the resignations of two cabinet ministers and letters from more than 20 riding presidents calling on Higgs to resign.

Higgs said there was no formal discussion at the meeting about a possible leadership review, but did say he wants to work with the party and his caucus to resolve any issues behind closed doors.

"I think we have a path forward here as we work through some of our issues," he said.

Claude Williams, a former president of the party who attended the meeting, said the reason there was no formal discussion about a leadership review is because the rules of the meeting made it impossible.

He also said he was disappointed in the premier's closing remarks to the meeting, but didn't elaborate further.

Support cloudy

The amount of support the premier has in caucus, and in the party, is up for debate.

On Wednesday, CBC News reported at least 22 riding presidents have written letters calling for a leadership review vote.

But Mark Paul-Elias, the president of the PC's Fredericton-Grand Lake Riding Association, said the majority of the party stands behind the premier.

While he admitted not everyone was supportive of Higgs — mentioning at least one person who walked out of the meeting — Paul-Elias maintained the premier has the party's support.

"You don't have a family that doesn't have the odd person who doesn't agree with what's going on. But the party is really united and we intend to stay united," he said.

 "The turmoil within New Brunswick's Progressive Conservative Party was deepening Friday morning as another minister quit Premier Blaine Higgs's cabinet and four former top party officials demanded the premier resign.

Portland-Simonds MLA Trevor Holder, the longest-serving MLA in the legislature, announced in an open letter he was quitting as minister of post-secondary education, training and labour.

"Under the leadership of Premier Higgs, caucus has been less about consensus and more about him getting his own way," Holder wrote.

Holder's letter was sent out just one hour after four past presidents of the party called on Higgs to resign immediately.

"We ask that you avoid a disruptive, public battle that could tear the party apart. We ask that you leave graciously," the letter says.

The letter is signed by Claude Williams, Lester Young, Brian Harquail and Jason Stephen, all former presidents of the New Brunswick party."

"Only three sitting PC MLAs endorsed him, an indicator of how his more conventional colleagues saw his maverickness.

So he signed up countless new party members to go around them.

He told those recruits that "it doesn't matter what the party's called — use the PC Party as a conduit to change politics in New Brunswick."

"Most MLAs who worked with Higgs in the Alward cabinet endorsed other leadership candidates in 2016 and chafed at his open disdain for old-fashioned party ways.

"When it's done right … politics is what makes things happen," veteran Portland-Simonds member Trevor Holder said at the time.

"Sometimes that takes political friendships and alliances to get that done."

Reply to David Amos 
"The main accusation by his caucus critics is that he cuts them out of his decision-making process.

His 2020 push for health reforms — including the proposed closure of small hospital emergency departments — cost him his only francophone MLA at the time, Robert Gauvin.

Gauvin's father was the late Jean Gauvin, a longtime member of Richard Hatfield's cabinet who helped keep the embers of PC support flickering in Shippagan during the party's 12-year exile from power.

Jean Gauvin also stood by Hatfield when party rebels tried to remove him from the leadership in 1985 — so his son's move to the Liberals is another symbol of Higgs's break with party history. "

Reply to David Amos  
"Another francophone who backed Hatfield during that battle, Jean-Pierre Ouellet from Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston, is now part of the push to dump Higgs, arguing the premier is advancing ideas inimical to the PC Party.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's trying to implement a platform that was the CoR platform when he was campaigning for the CoR party in the 1980s," Ouellete said."

Reply to Kat Jo 
 A child’s gender identity has no impact on the “rearing” aspect of a parent. Their support, love, and attention should not be impacted by their gender identity.

That’s why in this one singular niche situation the parent should be left out, if the child specifically requests it.

Parents are still informed and involved in literally everything else.

Mark Paul-Elias does not apparently read the news. This is like Higgs' family has put all his worldly possessions on the sidewalk and changed the locks on the door. In that this is no small family disagreement.

No surprise that Higgs would put himself ahead of his party and his province. He is a bitter ender of there ever was one. This is going to get much worse in the days ahead.

You do know that there is only one poll that counts. Polling done for any party (paid for) are easily manipulated to get the result they desire, which they then advertise as the definitive authority.

Another N.B. cabinet minister quits as turmoil over Higgs's leadership deepens

Trevor Holder resigns not long after 4 former party presidents call for premier to leave

Portland-Simonds MLA Trevor Holder, the longest-serving MLA in the legislature, announced in an open letter he was quitting as minister of post-secondary education, training and labour.

"Under the leadership of Premier Higgs, caucus has been less about consensus and more about him getting his own way," Holder wrote.

Holder said he has tried many times to explain to the premier the importance of working more collaboratively but to no avail.

"While I have tried my best to continue to work to maintain the integrity of the caucus system, I have finally come to the conclusion that this is no longer possible."

He also rapped the premier for "his lack of empathy as well as his inability to listen to valid concerns from all members of his caucus." 

Holder was first elected in the 1999 election and has been a minister under three different PC premiers.

He said he plans to stay on as MLA for Portland-Simonds and called on party members to "build a thoughtful conservative movement in this province that brings people together rather than divide them."

Holder's letter was sent out just one hour after four past presidents of the party called on Higgs to resign immediately.

They wrote in their statement that Higgs has achieved a lot during his more than four years as premier but also lacks the ability to achieve "the delicate balance" required to govern New Brunswick.

"We ask that you avoid a disruptive, public battle that could tear the party apart. We ask that you leave graciously," the letter says.

"You have had some important successes as Premier of New Brunswick. But the moment now demands that you pass the baton and the PCNB reorient itself to face the future and move forward."

The letter is signed by Claude Williams, Lester Young, Brian Harquail and Jason Stephen, all former presidents of the New Brunswick party.

The four former presidents accused Higgs of trying to make the internal fight a fight about Policy 713, the policy on protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools that the government recently revised. 

But they said the problems run deeper and include the premier's attempts to replace French immersion and weaken district education councils and to eliminate elected members of regional health authority boards. 

"Policy 713 was just the tipping point in a long line of disrespect he has shown to our Party, its values and its traditions," they wrote.

Stephen said in an interview that as a party volunteer for more than three decades, it was hard for him to sign the letter.

But he believes the party's future is at stake, including in the next election in October 2024.

"This is going to turn into a very divisive program, I believe. That's why I'm asking him to retire and pass the torch. He can leave a legacy of doing some very good things. But that legacy will be different if he tries to carry a fractured party into the election."

Southwest Miramichi-Bay du Vin MLA Mike Dawson said he's "behind Blaine Higgs 100 per cent" and doesn't understand what Holder's resignation will accomplish.

Since he was elected in a byelection last year, Dawson said, he's been in the Premier's Office many times, discussing issues with Higgs.

"Instead of letting the pot simmer and boil over, you go into the office, you have the discussions and you come out of the office on a level playing field, and everyone understands where each other stands," he said.

Dawson also defended the premier's hands-on approach to governing, which former cabinet minister Dorothy Shephard and others have complained about. 

"Blaine Higgs is the boss of the PC party. He's the CEO," Dawson said.

In a note addressed to the premier, the social development minister said, ‘I can no longer remain in your cabinet.’

Holder's resignation follows that of Shephard, his Saint John colleague who quit last week after she, Holder, two other ministers and two backbench PC MLA defied Higgs during a vote in the legislature.

They joined with the opposition parties to pass a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713. 

Holder said in his letter he now has to do "some significant soul searching" after a 24-year career in the legislature. 

Critics of Higgs within the party have collected 26 letters from presidents of party riding presidents calling for a leadership review.

That's six more than the threshold under the party constitution for the PC provincial council to debate it at an upcoming meeting. 

It also represents a majority of the 49 riding organizations in the province. 

Earlier this week Higgs called the push for a review "a strategically planned political drama" that has been "a focus from a certain group for a few years now" and that was heightened by the Policy 713 debate.

On Thursday two PC caucus members, cabinet minister Réjean Savoie and backbench MLA Sherry Wilson, said they support Higgs staying on.

Wilson said PC MLAs who can't support his leadership "need to go and just retire, just get out of politics, if that's the way they think."

PC caucus members voice support for Higgs amid push for leadership review

Moncton Southwest MLA says rebels should quit politics if they don’t like premier’s approach

Moncton Southwest PC MLA Sherry Wilson says Higgs's record on fiscal management and improving health care is a strong one, and members of the PC caucus who don't like his leadership should quit.

"For the people who don't support our premier, and don't look at the good work and the big picture and what's best for the people we serve here in New Brunswick, I think maybe it's time for them to step away," she said.

Critics of Higgs within the party say they have gathered letters from 26 presidents of PC riding associations and 50 rank-and-file members overall — more than enough to start the process of seeking to remove Higgs.

Those letters were gathered over the last 10 days as a debate over Policy 713, on the protection of LGBTQ students in provincial schools, erupted at the legislature.

Four cabinet ministers and two backbench PC MLAs voted with a Liberal opposition motion calling for consultations, helping to carry the motion 26-20.

Wilson said those Tory MLAs should leave if they can't endorse Higgs's approach.

"To me it's a Conservative value that parents are involved in their children's lives. How do we fix it? I think maybe some of them maybe need to step down. They need to go and just retire, just get out of politics if that's the way they think."

Former minister Dorothy Shephard quit the cabinet last week but remains a PC MLA.

She said Higgs's handling of Policy 713 was "the last straw" and the latest in a string of examples where he has cut the cabinet and caucus out of decision-making and instead micromanaged issues.

But Wilson defended that approach.

"Blaine has his own leadership style. He does. But look at the work that's been done under his leadership. … He is the premier and he needs to know what's going on in every sector in government," she said. 

"In any of the departments, if something were to go wrong, the bucks stops with him. He needs to know so he can work with us and guide us."

Regional Development Corporation Minister Réjean Savoie, elected last year in a byelection in Miramichi Bay-Neguac, also defended Higgs. 

"The premier has done his job well," Savoie said. "We've never been in such a strong financial position."

He said he worried that the public split would damage the PC party.

"When we have a family disagreement, it should happen behind closed doors. … and the Progressive Conservative party is a family." 

Savoie was among the MLAs who stood behind Higgs in a media scrum minutes after the government lost the vote on the Policy 713 motion last Thursday.

He said the impact of the changes to the policy have been exaggerated. 

"I hope this will end well and we can try to calm things down," he said.

Former PC cabinet minister Jody Carr, whose brother Jeff Carr is a minister in the government and among those who voted for the motion, tweeted Thursday that it was sad to see Higgs "lose the confidence of his party, caucus and citizens, and be the last one to realize it."

Wilson was one of the few PC MLAs who supported Higgs in his campaign for the party leadership in 2016.

She became minister of women's equality and minister of Service New Brunswick when the party took power after the 2018 election, but was shuffled out of the cabinet when the PCs were re-elected in 2020.

The former minister of Service New Brunswick Sherry Wilson never did find my Harley. Perhaps she will now? 
 
 
 
 

Blaine Higgs, a visitor to the PC Party, may soon be shown the door

The premier ran for the party leadership as an outsider. That may now be his undoing

He's like that person who shows up at a house party as a virtual stranger or a new acquaintance barely known to the hosts.

They liven up the evening, but sometimes the party-goers look askance when they become disruptive.

"I did not grow up in a political family," Higgs said when he launched his campaign to win the PC leadership in 2016. "I did not come from deep roots politically."

Higgs had served one term as finance minister in a previous Tory government, but prior to 2010 never held elective office and hadn't even been a PC Party member.

He portrayed himself — accurately — as an outsider, the kind of person the party and the province needed to lead what he called "a movement" to save New Brunswick.

"I have the independence of thinking this province desperately needs," he said.

Now Higgs faces a push from within for a leadership review, with more than half of party riding presidents signing letters to trigger the process.

And his willingness to defy long-established partisan norms is coming back to haunt him.

As minister of finance from 2010 to 2014, that willingness to question the conventional wisdom of party politics was often bracing and refreshing.

Uncomfortable truths

He uttered uncomfortable truths that political veterans never acknowledged: that expensive, poorly thought out campaign promises were responsible for a large part of the province's big deficits and debt.

"It's a case when politicians are the most vulnerable, and people say 'I'll get him to promise this,'" he said.

Premier Higgs says he’s not perfect

Blaine Higgs reacts to a 2021 letter from Dorothy Shephard that said his leadership style 'destroyed' the team around him.

Another example was Higgs's refusal to endorse Premier David Alward's patronage appointment of cabinet minister Margaret-Ann Blaney to a plush Crown CEO job.

Longtime party stalwarts simply don't do that. They fall in line.

Higgs was different. That became his biggest asset, central to his brand.

Even Higgs's past involvement with the anti-bilingualism Confederation of Regions party — alarming to many francophones — underscored that he was truly different.

He once described threatening to resign when political staffers in Alward's office rewrote his budget speech on the eve of its delivery.

They backed off that time, he said, but in 2016 he argued he needed the top job to overcome those tired, same-old political considerations for good.

"I'm running for premier because I can't get it done as finance minister," he said.

Little support from MLAs

Only three sitting PC MLAs endorsed him, an indicator of how his more conventional colleagues saw his maverickness.

So he signed up countless new party members to go around them.

He told those recruits that "it doesn't matter what the party's called — use the PC Party as a conduit to change politics in New Brunswick."

Saint John Lancaster MLA Dorothy Shephard, who quit cabinet last week over Higgs's management style, wrote in a 2021 letter to him that most of his leadership supporters "had never supported the [PC Party] or had any connection to anyone in the party."

And, she added, most of them "are nowhere to be found now."

Most MLAs who worked with Higgs in the Alward cabinet endorsed other leadership candidates in 2016 and chafed at his open disdain for old-fashioned party ways.

"When it's done right … politics is what makes things happen," veteran Portland-Simonds member Trevor Holder said at the time.

"Sometimes that takes political friendships and alliances to get that done." 

WATCH | In May, Higgs called for a controversial review of Policy 713:

Higgs says schools should have to inform parents if a child under 16 wants to change their names or pronouns, and young children should not be exposed to drag queen storytimes.

Holder was among the cabinet ministers who defied Higgs last week to vote for an opposition motion calling for more consultations on changes to LGBTQ protections for students in Policy 713.

Higgs won the leadership and the sceptics fell in line, then watched as his unconventional approach became, in their minds, a political liability.

Criticism from caucus

The main accusation by his caucus critics is that he cuts them out of his decision-making process.

His 2020 push for health reforms — including the proposed closure of small hospital emergency departments — cost him his only francophone MLA at the time, Robert Gauvin.

Gauvin's father was the late Jean Gauvin, a longtime member of Richard Hatfield's cabinet who helped keep the embers of PC support flickering in Shippagan during the party's 12-year exile from power.

Jean Gauvin also stood by Hatfield when party rebels tried to remove him from the leadership in 1985 — so his son's move to the Liberals is another symbol of Higgs's break with party history. 

Another francophone who backed Hatfield during that battle, Jean-Pierre Ouellet from Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston, is now part of the push to dump Higgs, arguing the premier is advancing ideas inimical to the PC Party.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's trying to implement a platform that was the CoR platform when he was campaigning for the CoR party in the 1980s," Ouellete said.

Outsider status could be a threat

So the premier's outsider status — the very thing that propelled him to power — now threatens to undo him.

His best defence is his record: big budget surpluses, a lower provincial debt, low unemployment and unprecedented population growth.

But recent comments by Higgs suggest he doubts any potential new PC leader would live up to what he considers the high standards of success he has achieved.

"That is what's weighing heavy on my mind: are we going to keep the ball rolling or are we going to regress and go back into the political process?"

That's another alarming heresy for party veterans who value continuity, succession planning and long-term political viability.

A woman with short grey hair and glasses glances to the left of the photo with a serious expression. It's fairly close-up and only the collar of a black blouse with aqua squares and some red patterning is visible.    In her 2021 letter to Higgs, Shephard said that when he launched his leadership bid, she concluded he "didn't want to be leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick; you just wanted to be 'leader.' (Shane Magee/CBC)

Higgs dismissed the review push in a statement Wednesday that did not acknowledge there are letters from a majority of riding presidents.

Instead he called it "a strategically planned political drama" that has been "a focus from a certain group for a few years now," now heightened by the Policy 713 debate.

In her 2021 letter to Higgs, Shephard said that when he launched his leadership bid, she concluded he "didn't want to be leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick; you just wanted to be 'leader.'"

But the two can't be separated: if the push for a leadership review succeeds, Higgs would be facing the end of his tenure as both PC leader and premier.

That's the choice now facing party members: what to do with this guest who, to many, is wearing out his welcome.

Higgs has not been listening to his people and is plowing ahead with a very controversial piece of legislation. That’s not smart politics.

"the Netherlands and the UK are changing the same policy NB just did"

{citation needed}

Higgs came in, like DeSantis and lots of other righties in the US, both barrels blazing. He didn't bother to take the time to have a discussion with people who implemented the policy in the first place, and ask them questions. He's clearly giving in to social conservatives who are simply using this as a wedge to defeat policies that accept the fact that people are non-binary. They see the whole "transition" thing as an easy target, from which they ca make further inroads toward their goal of reversing the entire spectrum of policies that support non-binary citizens.

This issue he has brushed aside as being trendy. His problems do not stem from this issue. This is the camel's straw. It's a governance matter. He's taking his advice from some place outside of NB and bypassing the elected representatives. I understand that Conservatives think they can save face by trying to make this about an issue that polls well for them with their base, but this is a leadership crisis now. Try to stay on point. Higgs has shown himself to be oblivious or flippant to the social question. PR strategizing is all that is occurring with the issue you raise. The recommendations he got from his paid planners bombed as far as I'm concerned. Their national spearhead movement to take on this issue has died in NB just like fracking did. We became world notables in putting an end to the madness, and we ought to keep doing it despite these doomsday prophets telling us we are in need of their savior's medicine.

PC rebels say majority of riding presidents support ousting Higgs

More than 20 riding presidents signed letters, the first step in removing N.B. premier as leader of the party

A member of the party's provincial council says 25 presidents of PC riding associations have signed letters calling for a leadership review vote.

That's a majority out of the 49 ridings. It also surpasses a key threshold in the party's constitution to trigger the process.

"That number constitutes over 50 per cent of riding association presidents and I think it clearly shows there's a desire for a change of leadership amongst the membership," said John Williston, a regional vice-president of the party who supports the review.

"This is from every part of the province. … It's important that this reflects a wide scope of New Brunswick — anglophone, francophone, northern, southern. It shows unity among our party throughout the province."

CBC News has seen and verified 22 of the letters, two more than the number required to advance the issue.

Jean-Pierre Ouellet, president of the Madawaska-Les Lacs-Edmundston riding association and one of the signatories, said Higgs has made too many decisions without consulting the public.

"It's 'my way or the highway,'" he said, pointing to an attempt to replace French immersion, legislation weakening the powers of anglophone district education councils and eliminating elected positions on regional health authority boards.

Surpassing the 20-letter threshold doesn't guarantee a membership vote on Higgs's leadership will be held.

The party constitution requires letters from 20 riding presidents, and 50 party members in total, for the party's provincial council — its governing body — to put the question on its agenda at its next meeting.

No more than five of the 50 members can be from any single riding.

Former party president Claude Williams told Radio-Canada's La Matinale on Wednesday morning that those 50 letters were also in hand.

"We have the numbers," Williams said. "If I were in his place, I'd retire." 

The council must vote by a two-thirds majority to schedule a convention within three months, where delegates would vote on whether to keep or remove Higgs.

Williston, a member of the council, said he believes a two-thirds vote is well within "striking distance."

"With approximately one-third of the caucus voting against the government and not willing to follow the premier at this point, it's quite obvious to me we need a change in leadership in the party."

Reviews are automatic if the party loses an election, but the process is elaborate and time-consuming when it's in power.

The move to dump Higgs is the first organized attempt to remove a sitting New Brunswick premier from their party's leadership since an effort against Premier Richard Hatfield in 1985.

Higgs was elected premier in September 2018 and re-elected two years later. 

Former cabinet minister Dorothy Shephard, who resigned as social development minister last week, said last week that she'd rather see Higgs leave "amicably" than face being ousted.

"I know that the party is mobilizing to consider a leadership review," she said on CBC's Power and Politics. "I'm sure that weighs on his mind."

But Higgs indicated Monday the ball was in the membership's court.

"It won't be a call that I make, right?" he told reporters. "If the party decides to do that, it won't be a decision I make. So if it happens, I guess it happens."

Shephard quit after she and five other PC MLAs, including three other ministers, voted with the opposition for a Liberal motion calling for more consultations on Policy 713.

The premier said he was willing to face a party review process to defend his position on his controversial review of the policy, which sets out standards for providing safe and inclusive spaces for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

PC Party president Erika Hachey said in an email she has not received any letters yet from riding presidents calling for a review.

The provincial council is scheduled to meet this weekend, but the party constitution requires letters to be submitted 21 days in advance, so the review would only appear on the agenda of the next meeting this fall.

Hachey was unsure exactly how many members sit on the provincial council and what number would constitute two-thirds support for calling a convention.

The council includes the 49 riding presidents, several party officials, including the president and nine regional vice-presidents, five MLAs whom she did not identify, and Higgs himself.

Ms Shepard was wrong about one thing in that Higgs ran the province like a business. Anyone running their business like he is won't be running a business for long.

Fractures appearing in Canada's Conservative parties both federally and Provincially can only end up being a good thing for everyone. I don't disagree in principle with the fact that parents have rights too, but this Premier seems to know no boundaries on his own agenda-pushing.

He was the first Premier of NB to be reelected since Frank McKenna over 28 years ago (1995). It is shocking to think that he might not even get to finish his second term. Looks like it isn't just the electors who don't like second-term Premiers.

Higgs got re-elected in 2020, nine months after the pandemic hit New Brunswick. Those are hardly normal circumstances. People were still in shock, and at that point, Higgs appeared to be doing a decent job of managing the pandemic.

"PC Party president Erika Hachey said in an email she has not received any letters yet from riding presidents calling for a review."

Or

"A member of the party's provincial council says 25 presidents of PC riding associations have signed letters calling for a leadership review vote."

Which is it?

Calling for a review is not the same as calling to push Higgs out as party leader. Seems like a political ploy that is based more on hearsay than fact. Lets see the names of those calling for this review.

PC official wants Blaine Higgs's leadership put to review

PC party official hopes for discussion of N.B. premier's leadership at
annual general meeting

A Progressive Conservative party official in southeast New Brunswick
is trying to trigger a review of Premier Blaine Higgs's leadership of
the provincial party.

In an email to fellow party members, Maurice Arsenault, the PC
regional vice-president for southeast New Brunswick, accuses Higgs of
a "dictatorial approach."

He's hoping to rally enough PC members to sign letters to trigger a
discussion of the premier's leadership at the party's annual general
meeting Nov. 4-5 in Fredericton.

"Let me remind it was Blaine Higgs who embraced Dominic Cardy and Kris
Austin without any consultation with our party," Arsenault wrote.

the Tories in March, was sworn into Higgs cabinet the same day Dominic
Cardy resigned. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

Cardy, a former NDP leader, joined the PCs in 2017 but resigned from
Higgs's cabinet last week over the premier's leadership style.

The same day, Austin, a former leader of the People's Alliance who
defected to the Tories in March, was sworn into the cabinet.

"There's a lot of people who are not satisfied, and everybody's
talking about it, and nobody's doing anything about it," Arsenault
told CBC News.

"Then Cardy jumped the boat, and he's not the only one who's
frustrated, so I believe it was time to put my letter forward."
Caucus backs Higgs

Moncton South PC MLA Greg Turner said he convened a meeting of the PC
caucus Monday night after they "got wind" of the letter, and the
support for Higgs was unanimous, with no dissent.

"Without exception, [it was] 100 per cent complete endorsement of the
premier and his leadership for our province, actually," he said.

"Everybody had a chance to speak who wanted to speak on the subject,
and it was very, very positive. Ministers and MLAs alike were unified
in our endorsement of the premier and the work we have done and he has
done in leading us."

Poitras/CBC)

Arsenault, who lives in the riding of Moncton Centre, writes in his
letter that Austin "does not adhere to our party's constitution," a
reference to the Alliance party's opposition to aspects of official
bilingualism.

The PC constitution's principles include a statement that party
members support official bilingualism and the protection and promotion
of "the diversity of our two linguistic communities."

"It was enough to have Kris Austin" as a PC MLA, but "having him as a
minister, I can't stand that," Arsenault said.
Snap vote hurdles

He said he's been told by someone in the party that if he can gather
enough support quickly enough, the leadership question can be put on
the agenda at the annual meeting.

But the hurdles to a snap vote on removing the PC leader are considerable.

Reviews are automatic when the party loses an election, but when it's
in power, 50 party members, including 20 riding association
presidents, must ask the president's council for a vote on a review at
least 21 days before its next meeting.

The president's council is made up of members the party executive, its
regional vice-presidents such as Arsenault and all 49 PC riding
association presidents.

It must vote by a two-thirds margin in favour of a leadership review.
Only then would a vote by all members on ousting Higgs be scheduled
within three months, either at an annual meeting or special meeting.

PC party president Claude Williams says the president's council is
unlikely to meet until December and that means it's impossible for a
leadership review to get on the agenda at the annual meeting.
Debate has been going on for 'last few weeks'

Williams, a former cabinet colleague of Higgs in the David Alward
government, said as party president he cannot take a position on the
premier's leadership.

"The debate's been going on for the last few weeks," he said. "I don't
have an opinion."

Among Arsenault's other complaints is that Higgs has done nothing to
fix health care since firing the two regional health authority boards
in July, and has yet to respond to a review of the Official Languages
Act that was submitted 10 months ago.

He says he's been hearing "for months" from party supporters wanting a
change at the top.

    Health care crisis dominates N.B. Legislature's return

    Cardy says other ministers frustrated with Higgs should quit, too

But Turner says Arsenault is an isolated voice.

"We can't lose sight of the fact that this review call is from one
member of the party. That's how we look at this. I'm sure there's
always people who question the leadership of any organization at
certain times for certain reasons."

Higgs recently told Brunswick News that he'll announce during his
State of the Province speech in the new year whether he plans to
retire ahead of the next election in 2024 or seek another mandate.

But Arsenault says Higgs is "toying with us" and that timing is
"disrespectful" for a potential new party leader who would need to
establish their own agenda before the 2024 election.

Call for review of Blaine Higgs leadership in NB

By Teilor Stonein News
Spread the love

Call for review of Blaine Higgs leadership in NB.

A regional vice-president wants Blaine Higgs to be put to a vote of confidence.

Blaine Higgs, Premier of New Brunswick, at the press scrum at the
Legislative Assembly, in Fredericton, in October 2022.

In a letter addressed to the members of the executive committee of the
Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick and of which
Radio-Canada obtained a copy, a regional vice-president, Maurice
Arsenault, launches an appeal to his peers to initiate a process to
review the leadership of Prime Minister Blaine Higgs.

This call comes a few days after the ex-Minister of Education Dominic
Cardy set fire to the powder by resigning from his post and publishing
an inflammatory letter in which he denounces the actions of Blaine
Higgs. Dominic Cardy has since been kicked out of the Conservative
caucus.

    “For months I have heard [Progressive Conservative Party]
supporters want change at the top. Blaine Higgs must be reminded that
he was not elected Prime Minister, our party was elected to govern
with him as leader. »

    — Maurice Arsenault, Regional Vice-President of Westmorland Albert

In his letter, the Regional Vice-President of Westmorland Albert
denounces the dictatorial approach of the leader. He also criticizes
the arrival of Dominic Cardy and Kris Austin, without any consultation
with the party. He writes that the appointment of Kris Austin as
Minister is once again a snub to Francophones and criticizes the Prime
Minister's management of health.

[Blaine Higgs] is not philosophically aligned to guide a
reconstruction of post-COVID society with all its challenges, he
believes.

Mauritius Arsenault calls on members to send letters to party chairman
Claude Williams by October 28 asking for a leadership review. Maurice
Arsenault himself sent a letter to officially make this request.

Before a review process is launched, other Progressive Conservatives
will have to add their voice to that of Maurice Arsenault.

According to the constitution of the PCNB, a leadership review may
have take place at any time, even when the party forms the government.

To do so, at least fifty party members – including at least 20
constituency presidents – must apply to have the party leadership
review placed on the agenda for the next provincial council meeting.

Party chairman Claude Williams says the next council meeting should
take place before the end of December.

If two-thirds of council members vote in favor of a revision, a
meeting will be convened within three months to hold a secret vote.

In this secret ballot, party members – that is, all citizens
registered as members of the Progressive Conservative Party of New
Brunswick – will be asked to answer the following question: Do you
support [Blaine Higgs ] as Party leader? .

If more than 50% of members say no, a leadership convention will be
held within six months to choose a new leader.

In an interview with Radio-Canada on Monday afternoon, Maurice
Arsenault said he was confident that he would manage to obtain the
necessary mobilization to trigger the process.

I am very confident that I will get the twenties [necessary supports].
Already, I received a dozen comments in my favor and I think the rest
will come, not only from the French-speaking regions, from the
English-speaking regions too, he says.

News Release
Executive Council Office
Office of the Premier
Transition team announced
06 November 2018

FREDERICTON (GNB) – Premier-designate Blaine Higgs announced a
transition team to liaise with the civil service in the period leading
to the swearing-in of the new cabinet.

“A group of talented New Brunswickers have agreed to work with our
government to help ensure a seamless transition,” said Higgs. “These
team members bring decades of experience and expertise in the private
sector, governance and politics to this important process.”

The team members are:

    Louis Léger: With over 25 years of business experience, Léger has
spent  much of his career at the centre of the Atlantic Canadian
marketing communications industry and was recognized by Progress
Magazine as one of Atlantic Canada’s top 50 CEOs. Léger is on the
board of directors and chairs the finance committee of the Donald J.
Savoie Institute on Public Policy Research. He has also served on the
Université de Moncton’s board of governors.

    John Mallory: A retired deputy minister of finance, Mallory served
for 15 years under six premiers and seven finance ministers.

    Edith Doucet: Doucet has 33 years of experience in the public
service, including time as clerk of the Executive Council and head of
the civil service. She also served as deputy minister of social
development, healthy and inclusive communities and intergovernmental
affairs.

    Bob Youden: Youden is a partner in Savarin Consulting, a
consulting and holding company for business interests. He has over 30
years of experience working in the private and public sectors.

    Paul D’Astous: A retired chair and CEO with the New Brunswick
Insurance Board and former vice-president of sales and marketing with
Assumption Life, D’Astous is the executive director of the Progressive
Conservative Party of New Brunswick.

“Premier Gallant and I have met to discuss the transition and I want
to thank Mr. Gallant and the senior officials in the civil service for
the work they have done,” said Higgs.

Cash-strapped PCs 'working hard' on building campaign war chest

The Opposition party applied for government assistance to hire staff last year

Money was so tight at New Brunswick Progressive Conservative headquarters last year the party successfully applied for $4,700 in government wage assistance to help hire staff and had so many overdue bills it spent almost as much on late charges as it did on heat and lights.

Bob Hatheway acknowledges 2017 was a financial challenge for the PCs, but the party's long-time official agent and Fredericton businessman is confident it will be able to raise the substantial sums it needs this year to fight an effective province-wide election campaign — even with tough new donation rules.

"The party fundraising team has been working hard on that," said Hatheway.   

"I have every expectation that as the election writ drops we'll be fully funded for our budget we need for fighting the election."

Huge Liberal advantage

Raising money is traditionally difficult for opposition parties in New Brunswick, but the financial gap at the end of 2017 between governing Liberals, who had $1.8 million in the bank, and Opposition Tories, who had $13,000 and change in their accounts, looks especially daunting heading into this year's election season.

Progressive Conservatives raised $1.5 million to help fight the last election in 2014, but 54 per cent of that came from corporate donations which are now banned in the province. Maximum donations from individuals have also been lowered from $6,000 to $3,000.

That will limit how much money can be raised this year and could lead to a no-frills campaign for the party as it tries to live on what it can coax from individuals or qualify for in reimbursements from Elections New Brunswick to finance everything it does.

"I don't know that we'll be able to reach that past level. I do know we are being very conscientious of what our budget is," said Hatheway. 

"The amount of money that any of the other parties have is not really too relevant to us because we have a budget that's in place for our own purposes and we're going to be able to raise the money that's needed for that."

Hatheway wouldn't say what that budget is, but the party has spent more than $3 million in each of the last two election years, most of that on the campaign. 

In each of those campaigns, the party ended up borrowing money to supplement fundraising but, at the end of 2017, still owed $256,405 from past loans and is trying to avoid more debt this time.

"Our intention is to spend money we do have," said Hatheway

"The fundraising has been going very well. I'm quite excited about how it's going."

Fired cabinet minister speaks out on premier's leadership style

Dissenting minister who survived New Brunswick cabinet firings puzzles scholar

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr were fired for publicly opposing government policy but not Arlene Dunn

"The convention of cabinet solidarity was broken by all three," said Emmett Macfarlane, a political scientist at the University of Waterloo.

"Arguably the premier has misunderstood the convention."

On Tuesday, Higgs shuffled his cabinet and removed former local government minister Daniel Allain and former transportation minister Jeff Carr.

Two weeks earlier the pair, along with then social development minister Dorothy Shephard and then post secondary education minister Trevor Holder and two additional backbench government MLA, voted for an opposition motion to further study government changes to Policy 713, which covers the treatment of LGBTQ students in public schools.

Shephard submitted her resignation from cabinet on June 15 following the vote, as did Holder days later.

A fifth government minister, Arlene Dunn, was not in the legislature for the vote but publicly announced the following day she, too, would have sided against the government had she been there. 

On Tuesday, while Allain and Carr were fired, Dunn retained her job and was given additional responsibilities.

Higgs explained that although Dunn had publicly opposed the government's plan in interviews and public statements, that wasn't the same violation of cabinet solidarity committed by those ministers who voted against it.

"When you have cabinet ministers who take a position against the government in the legislature, it's very significant," said Higgs.

"If you look at the parliamentary system we operate under, cabinet support is paramount."

But Macfarlane said that is not a full understanding of the principles and traditions involved.

"The convention does not apply to voting. It applies to any public disagreement with the government," said Macfarlane.

He explained that in a parliamentary system the premier and cabinet ministers are "collectively" responsible for government policies and decisions and are required to defend all of them, even those they might disagree with privately, or resign.

Dunn, he argues, was in the same position opposing the government's changes to the 713 policy outside the legislature as Carr and Allain were voting against it inside the Legislature. 

"You have a real problem when a cabinet minister even just articulates dissent," said Macfarlane.

"Under our traditional view of the convention of cabinet solidarity the minister should have actually resigned."

No 'hard' rules

Greg Flynn, chair of the department of political science at McMaster University in Hamilton, said Higgs can do as he pleases because parliamentary traditions are not "hard and fast rules" and can be applied or not at the premier's discretion.

However, he said it is difficult to argue any parliamentary tradition would suggest treating Dunn differently than Allain and Carr.

"Generally speaking, any deviation or expression of disapproval from a government's position/policy should trigger either a resignation by the Minister or dismissal from Cabinet," wrote Flynn in an email about the issue.

Yan Campagnolo, a law professor at the University of Ottawa, does see some room for Higgs to treat Dunn's opposition to the government policy differently than the other ministers, but said all three were on thin ice.

"In a system of cabinet government, a minister who cannot publicly support a significant government policy would normally be expected to resign," said Campagnolo.

A man wearing a suit jacket standing outside with his arms crossed University of Ottawa law professor Yan Campagnolo says ministers who cannot support a government policy normally resign on principle. (University of Ottawa)

In his view, a minister voting against the government in the legislature is "the ultimate form of dissent" that no premier would tolerate, but he said it's not clear to him if Dunn's absence from the vote was a scheduling problem or a deliberate decision not to embarrass Higgs.

"Arlene Dunn's case is not as clear cut," he said.

Higgs had publicly announced prior to the vote in the legislature that he would not be requiring government MLAs to support any particular position and on Wednesday Carr said that signaled to ministers they were free to vote their conscience.

"It's not a whipped vote and nobody asked us how we were going to vote," Carr told CBC News.

But Macfarlane said that's not how cabinet solidarity works, either.

He said free votes for cabinet ministers are rare and always explicit, and he said every minister who feels it important to be publicly critical of a government policy or to vote against it, normally would resign their cabinet position on their own beforehand.

"We would always, except for very rare exceptions in Canadian history, expect cabinet members to vote with the government. That is in fact the convention of cabinet solidarity,"  said Macfarlane.

Fired cabinet minister speaks out on premier's leadership style

Jeff Carr remains PC MLA, supports leadership review

On Tuesday, Higgs shuffled his cabinet, replacing Carr in transportation and former local government minister Daniel Allain.

The reason given was that the two former ministers broke with cabinet solidarity by voting for an opposition motion on Policy 713.

"We have to respect the parliamentary system that we're in, the sanctity of cabinet, and the fact we'll have very frank and open discussion in cabinet or in caucus, but in cabinet you have to have solidarity," said Higgs after the shuffle.

But Carr isn't buying that explanation.

"Cabinet solidarity, yeah, you can't square that up when it's an opposition motion," said Carr, speaking to Information Morning Fredericton. 

"It's not a whipped vote and nobody asked us how we were going to vote. Nobody talked to us about that after we voted for, like, 18 days."

Cabinet conflict

Cabinet solidarity is the concept that cabinet ministers must openly support the government on all matters, and if a minister can't or won't support the government they should resign.

But this clashes with the idea of a free vote, meaning government members are not whipped — expected to vote on the government side, which sometimes happens with votes on issues such as abortion or LGBTQ rights.

There are different interpretations on whether cabinet ministers can vote against the government on a free vote, like Carr did, or must simply abstain, as Arlene Dunn did on the same Policy 713 vote. She remains in cabinet.

J.P. Lewis, a political scientist at UNB Saint John, said cabinet ministers have been expected to support the government even on free votes, historically, but the interpretation of that rule comes down to the premier.

"It's the premier's prerogative," said Lewis. "It's up to the first minister to interpret when they think a minister has violated [cabinet solidarity.]"

Premier 'lost' says Carr

Carr said he questions whether he should have stayed in cabinet as long as he did, but said he was hoping to have a moderating effect on the premier.

He said there have been ongoing issues with Higgs's leadership style, adding the premier's behaviour at a weekend PC party meeting was indicative of his style behind the scenes.

"People were offering the premier an olive branch to ask him to fix this within caucus," said Carr. "He burned that olive branch in front of a number of very good volunteers."

Premier Blaine Higgs rewards MLAs for their loyalty, and dumps two Ministers who veered from that path​. Jeanne Armstrong spoke to one of them, Jeff Carr, MLA for New Maryland-Sunbury​.

Carr also had criticism for the people running that meeting, saying it was unorganized and the agenda was changed without advance warning.

"It was like it was purposely unofficial so that there would be no record of what would happen on Saturday," said Carr.

CBC News has reached out to PC party president Erika Hachey about Carr's description of the meeting and is awaiting a response.

Carr remains PC MLA

He dodged questions about whether he still supports Higgs, but said he doesn't support his leadership style.

He does support a leadership review.

"The premier seems to have lost his way with this style," said Carr. 

"I feel for him and his family and my colleagues, and we have to do something soon."

Deja Vu?

Several high-profile ministers dropped as Blaine Higgs unveils new cabinet

Premier appoints 6 women to 16-member cabinet in Tuesday's swearing-in ceremony

Jacques Poitras · CBC News · Posted: Sep 29, 2020 2:40 PM ADT

Premier Blaine Higgs has jettisoned six members of his previous cabinet and has appointed six women as ministers in a sweeping post-election shuffle.

The six Progressive Conservative MLAs who served in Higgs's cabinet from 2018 until they were dropped Tuesday include high-profile members Andrea Anderson-Mason, who was attorney general, Jeff Carr who was at Environment and Local Government, and Jake Stewart who was minister of Aboriginal affairs.

Bill Oliver, Sherry Wilson and Ross Wetmore are also out.

Reply to David Amos  
 "Higgs told reporters that dropping six ministers was "nothing personal," and he said his new lineup is what he has "right now," holding out the possibility that reorganizing departments in the coming years could let some MLAs return to cabinet.

"We will look going forward at what needs to change," he said.

In other cabinet moves, Bruce Fitch replaces Shephard as minister of social development, while Education and Early Childhood Development Minister Dominic Cardy remains in that job. Mary Wilson moves from Economic Development to minister of Service New Brunswick.

Rookie Moncton East MLA Daniel Allain becomes the minister of local government and local government reform.

Allain told reporters the title is a sign that the government considers reform a major priority.

Other first-time MLAs joining cabinet are:

Margaret Johnson as minister of agriculture, aquaculture and fisheries.

Arlene Dunn as minister responsible for economic development. She is also minister responsible for immigration and minister of Aboriginal affairs.

Tammy Scott-Wallace as minister of tourism, heritage and culture and minister responsible for women's equality.

Jill Green as minister of transportation and infrastructure."

It was an opposition motion, but Carr has been around long enough to know that voting for it (rightly or wrongly) meant voting against the very government with which he enjoyed cabinet status. He knows why he's out.....bye Jeffy....should have pulled an Arlene Dunn.

"Greg Flynn, chair of the department of political science at McMaster University in Hamilton, said Higgs can do as he pleases because parliamentary traditions are not "hard and fast rules" and can be applied or not at the premier's discretion.

However, he said it is difficult to argue any parliamentary tradition would suggest treating Dunn differently than Allain and Carr."

As the 3rd Carr Brother from the New Maryland area to serve in Cabinet, Jeff knew very well his actions could get him removed from Cabinet or should have. As the old saying goes, "Don't bite the hand that feeds you", you must play by the rules. As for Arlene Dunn, The Premier must figure she is more valuable inside Cabinet than sitting outside throwing the snowballs the others make.

Carr did know what was going to happen. Anyone that works with Higgs knows what the outcome would be. Carr and others had the guts to get out from under the premier's thumb and let the public see what this govt is actually like. When Higg's was in private business he would terminate employees and never see them again. He can't do that here and it's driving him mad. He can't fire them from their MLA position.

Actually they're very real, just like spending in excess of what you earn and then borrowing more from the bank.

Who was the first authoritarian premier who demanded to be supported or else? Did this come from England? What the political scientist does tell us is that a premier could just as easily think differently. So there you go, we can focus on electing someone who will answer that question about his preference before we vote for him. Remember the question. The desire to have people comply might be found in all parties if we don't select against it.

As New Brunswick changes its LGBTQ policy in schools, advocates worry it's just the beginning

'There's nothing stopping a government from passing discriminatory legislation,' says professor

A policy about LGBTQ students at the heart of a political battle in New Brunswick could have a ripple effect across Canada, according to experts who say they're concerned it could open the door for other provincial governments to make similar changes.

New Brunswick's Policy 713, which was introduced in August 2020, outlines minimum requirements for a safe environment for LGBTQ students. Earlier in June, the province's Progressive Conservative government made changes to the policy, scheduled to take effect on July 1.

If those changes go forward, similar "attacks against the transgender and the non-binary community" could happen elsewhere in Canada, said Kristopher Wells, an associate professor at MacEwan University in Edmonton, and the Canada Research Chair for the Public Understanding of Sexual and Gender Minority Youth.

"Once one government makes a change, then it becomes often easier or more popular for other governments to consider those changes as well," he told CBC News.

"I think other provinces are obviously watching very closely to see what the potential fallout will be," said Helen Kennedy, the executive director for LGBTQ advocacy group Egale Canada.

New Brunswick's recent changes to the policy mean it's no longer mandatory for teachers to use the preferred pronouns or names of transgender or non-binary students under the age of 16.

A teacher or school would need to obtain parental consent for any child who wants to change their name at school. A student who refuses parental involvement would be referred to a school psychologist or social worker to develop a plan to inform the student's parents.

Premier Blaine Higgs has said that the changes reflect the government's desire to ensure parents play a role in the "formative years" of their children.

Higgs defended the changes again Tuesday during an interview with CBC's Power and Politics, saying he was seeing "a tremendous outpouring of support" for his position.

"Nationally, people are saying, 'Why wouldn't parents play a role?'" he said.

‘Trans kids need to feel safe’: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau weighs in on Policy 713

Duration 0:32
Speaking at a Pride event Thursday night in Toronto, the prime minister spoke out against changes made by the Higgs government to Policy 713.

Backlash, political debate

The change has caused turmoil in Higgs' cabinet, including two resignations. On Tuesday, he dropped two ministers who had voted against him on the gender-identity policy. Unionized school psychologists and social workers have filed two grievances with the provincial government.

It has also sparked federal debate, with both Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre chiming in. Speaking at a Pride even in Toronto earlier in June, Trudeau spoke out against the changes.

"Trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians. We need to stand against this," he said.

On Tuesday, Poilievre told reporters that Trudeau should stay out of it, saying "the prime minister has no business in decisions that should rest with provinces and parents." 

"So my message to Justin Trudeau is, 'Butt out and let provinces run schools and let parents raise kids.'"

Poilievre: PM has 'no business' in N.B. gender identity policy debate

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre says the prime minister needs to let 'provinces run schools and parents raise children.'

The changes have drawn national attention, with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) saying it will cause harm to trans and non-binary kids — not just in New Brunswick, but potentially across Canada.

"Make no mistake that this decision sets a dangerous precedent and that could instigate similar attempts to harm the rights of children across the country," Harini Sivalingam, lawyer and director of the Equality Program at the CCLA, said in a June 9 press release.

Meanwhile, a conservative Christian group based in B.C. is calling it a test case for its own efforts to roll back school LGBTQ policies.

Court challenges an option that take time

LGBTQ rights in Canada are protected under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression are protected in every provincial and territorial Human Rights Act.

According to Wells, this means any public institution by law must provide a discrimination-free environment.

"But that doesn't mean that the rights won through the courts and through government can't be stripped away or taken away," he said. 

Wells points to what happened after Jason Kenney was elected premier in Alberta — his United Conservative Party passed a controversial education bill that rolled back previous protections for children who join Gay-Straight Alliances in schools.

While politicians can pass legislation or policies that can be seen as discriminatory, these can also be challenged in the courts, Wells said, noting that there are checks and balances in the system.

In New Brunswick, he said, the only recourse the community really has is to either file a human rights complaint or go through the court system.

"But the reality is it takes a long time to challenge a government in court to get legislation ruled as being unconstitutional and stricken down," Wells said.

"There's nothing stopping a government from passing discriminatory legislation. That's why people need to to be very careful about how they vote."

Just the beginning?

Egale Canada's Kennedy says she worries the changes to Policy 713 are just the beginning.

"Do I see a political trend here to scapegoat members of the 2SLGBTQI community? Absolutely," Kennedy said. "We forget that there are human beings attached to the other end of all these political opportunist actions."

It's a hostile environment right now for the LGBTQ community, she said, noting the recent targeting of Pride flags as just one example.

Several communities across Canada, including Norwich, Ont., and Hope, B.C., have recently decided not to fly Pride flags. There have also been reports this year of flags in various provinces being stolendamaged and burned

Earlier this month, students in Vaughan, Ont., walked out over the York Catholic District School Board's decision not to raise a Pride flag at its education centre.

As far as Policy 713 is concerned, Kennedy says other provinces are likely looking at both the political response — will an election be called? Will Higgs fall? — and the community response, such as parental pushback. And while she says it's been encouraging to see some opposition, she also says the damage has been done.

"It's out there. We all know how [Higgs] feels about members of the 2SLGBTQI communities, and it's disturbing," she said.

"Every child, every student, has a right to a safe and inclusive education."

IMHO Ethical students of law do not need a fancy building to do
research. They can query the dockets from home on their laptops just
like I do

Out of the gate he "Lawmaker" Dominic LeBlanc and his cohorts should
explain why Rule 55 exists because if judges can ignore the rules then
there are no rules, Hence no need to study law at all Correct?


https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-98-106/fulltext.html

Varying rule and dispensing with compliance

55 In special circumstances, in a proceeding, the Court may vary a
rule or dispense with compliance with a rule.

Historic Fredericton justice building to become UNB law school

Historic Fredericton justice building to become UNB law school

A new justice building under construction on King Street is projected to open in 2025

A combined $62 million will be put toward making the project a reality, with $24.9 million from the federal government, $20.7 million from the province and $16.6 million from the University of New Brunswick.

Announcing the project Wednesday, Dominic LeBlanc, the federal minister of intergovernmental affairs, infrastructure and communities, said the money will pay for upgrades to the building's ventilation and communication systems, accessibility features and lighting.

It will also address flooding, he said. To avoid being closed because of high water some years, the Fredericton courthouse has had to relocate out of the downtown area, away from the St. John River.

(Pat Richard/CBC)

"The renewal of the building will preserve the history of the building, while providing a more modern and energy efficient space for students, faculty, staff and the public," said LeBlanc.

"This is very much about bringing the law faculty closer to the community [and] the community closer to the law students, the faculty [and] the researchers that will be doing work."

A new justice building is going up on King Street, between Regent and Carleton, scheduled to be completed by 2025 according to the province.

Use of the building as a school isn't a new idea. In fact, it began as one.

The original stone and brick structure opened in 1876 as a Normal School for training teachers. In 1929, that building burned down, but the columned-front entrance was preserved and the school was rebuilt and reopened in 1931.

Eventually, it became the high school in Fredericton, and then in the 1970s was turned into a courthouse.

Premier Blaine Higgs said an estimated 350 new law students are expected to enrol in the faculty over the next five years.

With the downtown location, he said the school will be able to provide important services to the community, including a permanent home for the UNB legal clinic, which offers free legal representation for those who don't qualify for legal aid.

A man in a navy blue suit standing at a wooden podium Michael Marin, the dean of law at UNB, said the building will be home to a legal observatory and multiple research centres. (Pat Richard/CBC)

Michael Marin, the dean of law, said the UNB legal clinic has already served more 100 clients in Fredericton. 

There will also be multiple new research centres for "major legal and policy challenges," he said.

With the additional space for the faculty that will come with taking over the justice building, Marin said there will be room for new programs that will "make legal education more available to more people."

"In doing all of this, our students and professors will be interacting every day with the ordinary people they serve, enabling all kinds of informal learning that's just as important as anything taught in a classroom," he said.

The photograph of the building with the word "Justice" on it reminded me of a story that Ralph Nader tells about how Richard Posner, a well-known judge, author and professor of law at the University of Chicago, would begin his course by writing the word 'justice' on the blackboard and saying that that was the last time that that word would be seen in this course.

LeBlanc is currently minister of intergovernmental affairs, northern affairs and internal trade.

RE : DAVID RAYMOND AMOS v. HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Court File: A-48-16
_______________________________________________________________________
DIRECTION

The Registry is requested to advise the parties:

Upon notice that William F. Pentney, Q.C. is named as solicitor of record for the respondent;

Upon notice June 23, 2017, of the appointment of William F. Pentney, Q.C., former Deputy Attorney General of Canada, as judge of the Federal Court, and ex officio member of the Federal Court of Appeal;

And upon considering that pursuant to Rule 126(b)(i), a party is deemed not to be represented by a solicitor if that party does not appoint a new solicitor after its solicitor of record ceases to act for the party because of appointment to a public office incompatible with the solicitor’s profession;

And upon concluding that by the effect of Rule 126(b)(i), the respondent is deemed not to be represented by a solicitor;

And upon notice that Nathalie G. Drouin became Deputy Attorney General of Canada, effective June 26, 2017;
 
 And upon considering Rule 55 which permits the Court to vary a rule or dispense with compliance with a rule;

The Court considers the solicitor of record for the respondent to be Nathalie G. Drouin, Deputy Attorney General of Canada.

Federal Court of Appeal Finally Makes The BIG Decision And Publishes It Now The Crooks Cannot Take Back Ticket To Try Put My Matter Before The Supreme Court


https://decisions.fct-cf.gc.ca/fca-caf/decisions/en/item/236679/index.do 
 

[22]           Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true copy of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this CD. He has also indicated that he has “provided a true copy of the CD entitled 139 to many American and Canadian law enforcement authorities and not one of the police forces or officers of the court are willing to investigate it”. Since he has indicated that this is an “American police surveillance wiretap”, this is a matter for the American law enforcement authorities and cannot create, as Mr. Amos suggests, a conflict of interest for any judge to whom he provides a copy.

[23]           As a result, there is no conflict or reasonable apprehension of bias for Justice Webb and therefore, no reason for him to recuse himself.

DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
Respondent on the cross-appeal
(and formally Appellant)
and
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Appellant on the cross-appeal
(and formerly Respondent)
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT BY THE COURT

I.                    Introduction

[1]               On September 16, 2015, David Raymond Amos (Mr. Amos) filed a 53-page Statement of Claim (the Claim) in Federal Court against Her Majesty the Queen (the Crown). Mr. Amos claims $11 million in damages and a public apology from the Prime Minister and Provincial Premiers for being illegally barred from accessing parliamentary properties and seeks a declaration from the Minister of Public Safety that the Canadian Government will no longer allow the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Canadian Forces to harass him and his clan (Claim at para. 96).

[2]               On November 12, 2015 (Docket T-1557-15), by way of a motion brought by the Crown, a prothonotary of the Federal Court (the Prothonotary) struck the Claim in its entirety, without leave to amend, on the basis that it was plain and obvious that the Claim disclosed no reasonable claim, the Claim was fundamentally vexatious, and the Claim could not be salvaged by way of further amendment (the Prothontary’s Order).


[3]               On January 25, 2016 (2016 FC 93), by way of Mr. Amos’ appeal from the Prothonotary’s Order, a judge of the Federal Court (the Judge), reviewing the matter de novo, struck all of Mr. Amos’ claims for relief with the exception of the claim for damages for being barred by the RCMP from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 (the Federal Court Judgment).


[4]               Mr. Amos appealed and the Crown cross-appealed the Federal Court Judgment. Further to the issuance of a Notice of Status Review, Mr. Amos’ appeal was dismissed for delay on December 19, 2016. As such, the only matter before this Court is the Crown’s cross-appeal.


II.                 Preliminary Matter

[5]               Mr. Amos, in his memorandum of fact and law in relation to the cross-appeal that was filed with this Court on March 6, 2017, indicated that several judges of this Court, including two of the judges of this panel, had a conflict of interest in this appeal. This was the first time that he identified the judges whom he believed had a conflict of interest in a document that was filed with this Court. In his notice of appeal he had alluded to a conflict with several judges but did not name those judges.

[6]               Mr. Amos was of the view that he did not have to identify the judges in any document filed with this Court because he had identified the judges in various documents that had been filed with the Federal Court. In his view the Federal Court and the Federal Court of Appeal are the same court and therefore any document filed in the Federal Court would be filed in this Court. This view is based on subsections 5(4) and 5.1(4) of the Federal Courts Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. F-7:


5(4) Every judge of the Federal Court is, by virtue of his or her office, a judge of the Federal Court of Appeal and has all the jurisdiction, power and authority of a judge of the Federal Court of Appeal.
[…]
5(4) Les juges de la Cour fédérale sont d’office juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale et ont la même compétence et les mêmes pouvoirs que les juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale.
[…]
5.1(4) Every judge of the Federal Court of Appeal is, by virtue of that office, a judge of the Federal Court and has all the jurisdiction, power and authority of a judge of the Federal Court.
5.1(4) Les juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale sont d’office juges de la Cour fédérale et ont la même compétence et les mêmes pouvoirs que les juges de la Cour fédérale.


[7]               However, these subsections only provide that the judges of the Federal Court are also judges of this Court (and vice versa). It does not mean that there is only one court. If the Federal Court and this Court were one Court, there would be no need for this section.
[8]               Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Courts Act provide that:
3 The division of the Federal Court of Canada called the Federal Court — Appeal Division is continued under the name “Federal Court of Appeal” in English and “Cour d’appel fédérale” in French. It is continued as an additional court of law, equity and admiralty in and for Canada, for the better administration of the laws of Canada and as a superior court of record having civil and criminal jurisdiction.
3 La Section d’appel, aussi appelée la Cour d’appel ou la Cour d’appel fédérale, est maintenue et dénommée « Cour d’appel fédérale » en français et « Federal Court of Appeal » en anglais. Elle est maintenue à titre de tribunal additionnel de droit, d’equity et d’amirauté du Canada, propre à améliorer l’application du droit canadien, et continue d’être une cour supérieure d’archives ayant compétence en matière civile et pénale.
4 The division of the Federal Court of Canada called the Federal Court — Trial Division is continued under the name “Federal Court” in English and “Cour fédérale” in French. It is continued as an additional court of law, equity and admiralty in and for Canada, for the better administration of the laws of Canada and as a superior court of record having civil and criminal jurisdiction.
4 La section de la Cour fédérale du Canada, appelée la Section de première instance de la Cour fédérale, est maintenue et dénommée « Cour fédérale » en français et « Federal Court » en anglais. Elle est maintenue à titre de tribunal additionnel de droit, d’equity et d’amirauté du Canada, propre à améliorer l’application du droit canadien, et continue d’être une cour supérieure d’archives ayant compétence en matière civile et pénale.


[9]               Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Courts Act create two separate courts – this Court (section 3) and the Federal Court (section 4). If, as Mr. Amos suggests, documents filed in the Federal Court were automatically also filed in this Court, then there would no need for the parties to prepare and file appeal books as required by Rules 343 to 345 of the Federal Courts Rules, SOR/98-106 in relation to any appeal from a decision of the Federal Court. The requirement to file an appeal book with this Court in relation to an appeal from a decision of the Federal Court makes it clear that the only documents that will be before this Court are the documents that are part of that appeal book.


[10]           Therefore, the memorandum of fact and law filed on March 6, 2017 is the first document, filed with this Court, in which Mr. Amos identified the particular judges that he submits have a conflict in any matter related to him. 


[11]           On April 3, 2017, Mr. Amos attempted to bring a motion before the Federal Court seeking an order “affirming or denying the conflict of interest he has” with a number of judges of the Federal Court. A judge of the Federal Court issued a direction noting that if Mr. Amos was seeking this order in relation to judges of the Federal Court of Appeal, it was beyond the jurisdiction of the Federal Court. Mr. Amos raised the Federal Court motion at the hearing of this cross-appeal. The Federal Court motion is not a motion before this Court and, as such, the submissions filed before the Federal Court will not be entertained. As well, since this was a motion brought before the Federal Court (and not this Court), any documents filed in relation to that motion are not part of the record of this Court.


[12]           During the hearing of the appeal Mr. Amos alleged that the third member of this panel also had a conflict of interest and submitted some documents that, in his view, supported his claim of a conflict. Mr. Amos, following the hearing of his appeal, was also afforded the opportunity to provide a brief summary of the conflict that he was alleging and to file additional documents that, in his view, supported his allegations. Mr. Amos submitted several pages of documents in relation to the alleged conflicts. He organized the documents by submitting a copy of the biography of the particular judge and then, immediately following that biography, by including copies of the documents that, in his view, supported his claim that such judge had a conflict.


[13]           The nature of the alleged conflict of Justice Webb is that before he was appointed as a Judge of the Tax Court of Canada in 2006, he was a partner with the law firm Patterson Law, and before that with Patterson Palmer in Nova Scotia. Mr. Amos submitted that he had a number of disputes with Patterson Palmer and Patterson Law and therefore Justice Webb has a conflict simply because he was a partner of these firms. Mr. Amos is not alleging that Justice Webb was personally involved in or had any knowledge of any matter in which Mr. Amos was involved with Justice Webb’s former law firm – only that he was a member of such firm.


[14]           During his oral submissions at the hearing of his appeal Mr. Amos, in relation to the alleged conflict for Justice Webb, focused on dealings between himself and a particular lawyer at Patterson Law. However, none of the documents submitted by Mr. Amos at the hearing or subsequently related to any dealings with this particular lawyer nor is it clear when Mr. Amos was dealing with this lawyer. In particular, it is far from clear whether such dealings were after the time that Justice Webb was appointed as a Judge of the Tax Court of Canada over 10 years ago.


[15]           The documents that he submitted in relation to the alleged conflict for Justice Webb largely relate to dealings between Byron Prior and the St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador office of Patterson Palmer, which is not in the same province where Justice Webb practiced law. The only document that indicates any dealing between Mr. Amos and Patterson Palmer is a copy of an affidavit of Stephen May who was a partner in the St. John’s NL office of Patterson Palmer. The affidavit is dated January 24, 2005 and refers to a number of e-mails that were sent by Mr. Amos to Stephen May. Mr. Amos also included a letter that is addressed to four individuals, one of whom is John Crosbie who was counsel to the St. John’s NL office of Patterson Palmer. The letter is dated September 2, 2004 and is addressed to “John Crosbie, c/o Greg G. Byrne, Suite 502, 570 Queen Street, Fredericton, NB E3B 5E3”. In this letter Mr. Amos alludes to a possible lawsuit against Patterson Palmer.
[16]           Mr. Amos’ position is that simply because Justice Webb was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer, he now has a conflict. In Wewaykum Indian Band v. Her Majesty the Queen, 2003 SCC 45, [2003] 2 S.C.R. 259, the Supreme Court of Canada noted that disqualification of a judge is to be determined based on whether there is a reasonable apprehension of bias:
60        In Canadian law, one standard has now emerged as the criterion for disqualification. The criterion, as expressed by de Grandpré J. in Committee for Justice and Liberty v. National Energy Board, …[[1978] 1 S.C.R. 369, 68 D.L.R. (3d) 716], at p. 394, is the reasonable apprehension of bias:
… the apprehension of bias must be a reasonable one, held by reasonable and right minded persons, applying themselves to the question and obtaining thereon the required information. In the words of the Court of Appeal, that test is "what would an informed person, viewing the matter realistically and practically -- and having thought the matter through -- conclude. Would he think that it is more likely than not that [the decision-maker], whether consciously or unconsciously, would not decide fairly."

[17]           The issue to be determined is whether an informed person, viewing the matter realistically and practically, and having thought the matter through, would conclude that Mr. Amos’ allegations give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias. As this Court has previously remarked, “there is a strong presumption that judges will administer justice impartially” and this presumption will not be rebutted in the absence of “convincing evidence” of bias (Collins v. Canada, 2011 FCA 140 at para. 7, [2011] 4 C.T.C. 157 [Collins]. See also R. v. S. (R.D.), [1997] 3 S.C.R. 484 at para. 32, 151 D.L.R. (4th) 193).

[18]           The Ontario Court of Appeal in Rando Drugs Ltd. v. Scott, 2007 ONCA 553, 86 O.R. (3d) 653 (leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada refused, 32285 (August 1, 2007)), addressed the particular issue of whether a judge is disqualified from hearing a case simply because he had been a member of a law firm that was involved in the litigation that was now before that judge. The Ontario Court of Appeal determined that the judge was not disqualified if the judge had no involvement with the person or the matter when he was a lawyer. The Ontario Court of Appeal also explained that the rules for determining whether a judge is disqualified are different from the rules to determine whether a lawyer has a conflict:
27        Thus, disqualification is not the natural corollary to a finding that a trial judge has had some involvement in a case over which he or she is now presiding. Where the judge had no involvement, as here, it cannot be said that the judge is disqualified.


28        The point can rightly be made that had Mr. Patterson been asked to represent the appellant as counsel before his appointment to the bench, the conflict rules would likely have prevented him from taking the case because his firm had formerly represented one of the defendants in the case. Thus, it is argued how is it that as a trial judge Patterson J. can hear the case? This issue was considered by the Court of Appeal (Civil Division) in Locabail (U.K.) Ltd. v. Bayfield Properties Ltd., [2000] Q.B. 451. The court held, at para. 58, that there is no inflexible rule governing the disqualification of a judge and that, "[e]verything depends on the circumstances."


29        It seems to me that what appears at first sight to be an inconsistency in application of rules can be explained by the different contexts and in particular, the strong presumption of judicial impartiality that applies in the context of disqualification of a judge. There is no such presumption in cases of allegations of conflict of interest against a lawyer because of a firm's previous involvement in the case. To the contrary, as explained by Sopinka J. in MacDonald Estate v. Martin (1990), 77 D.L.R. (4th) 249 (S.C.C.), for sound policy reasons there is a presumption of a disqualifying interest that can rarely be overcome. In particular, a conclusory statement from the lawyer that he or she had no confidential information about the case will never be sufficient. The case is the opposite where the allegation of bias is made against a trial judge. His or her statement that he or she knew nothing about the case and had no involvement in it will ordinarily be accepted at face value unless there is good reason to doubt it: see Locabail, at para. 19.


30        That brings me then to consider the particular circumstances of this case and whether there are serious grounds to find a disqualifying conflict of interest in this case. In my view, there are two significant factors that justify the trial judge's decision not to recuse himself. The first is his statement, which all parties accept, that he knew nothing of the case when it was in his former firm and that he had nothing to do with it. The second is the long passage of time. As was said in Wewaykum, at para. 85:
            To us, one significant factor stands out, and must inform the perspective of the reasonable person assessing the impact of this involvement on Binnie J.'s impartiality in the appeals. That factor is the passage of time. Most arguments for disqualification rest on circumstances that are either contemporaneous to the decision-making, or that occurred within a short time prior to the decision-making.
31        There are other factors that inform the issue. The Wilson Walker firm no longer acted for any of the parties by the time of trial. More importantly, at the time of the motion, Patterson J. had been a judge for six years and thus had not had a relationship with his former firm for a considerable period of time.


32        In my view, a reasonable person, viewing the matter realistically would conclude that the trial judge could deal fairly and impartially with this case. I take this view principally because of the long passage of time and the trial judge's lack of involvement in or knowledge of the case when the Wilson Walker firm had carriage. In these circumstances it cannot be reasonably contended that the trial judge could not remain impartial in the case. The mere fact that his name appears on the letterhead of some correspondence from over a decade ago would not lead a reasonable person to believe that he would either consciously or unconsciously favour his former firm's former client. It is simply not realistic to think that a judge would throw off his mantle of impartiality, ignore his oath of office and favour a client - about whom he knew nothing - of a firm that he left six years earlier and that no longer acts for the client, in a case involving events from over a decade ago.
(emphasis added)

[19]           Justice Webb had no involvement with any matter involving Mr. Amos while he was a member of Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law, nor does Mr. Amos suggest that he did. Mr. Amos made it clear during the hearing of this matter that the only reason for the alleged conflict for Justice Webb was that he was a member of Patterson Law and Patterson Palmer. This is simply not enough for Justice Webb to be disqualified. Any involvement of Mr. Amos with Patterson Law while Justice Webb was a member of that firm would have had to occur over 10 years ago and even longer for the time when he was a member of Patterson Palmer. In addition to the lack of any involvement on his part with any matter or dispute that Mr. Amos had with Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer (which in and of itself is sufficient to dispose of this matter), the length of time since Justice Webb was a member of Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer would also result in the same finding – that there is no conflict in Justice Webb hearing this appeal.

[20]           Similarly in R. v. Bagot, 2000 MBCA 30, 145 Man. R. (2d) 260, the Manitoba Court of Appeal found that there was no reasonable apprehension of bias when a judge, who had been a member of the law firm that had been retained by the accused, had no involvement with the accused while he was a lawyer with that firm.

[21]           In Del Zotto v. Minister of National Revenue, [2000] 4 F.C. 321, 257 N.R. 96, this court did find that there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias where a judge, who while he was a lawyer, had recorded time on a matter involving the same person who was before that judge. However, this case can be distinguished as Justice Webb did not have any time recorded on any files involving Mr. Amos while he was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law.

[22]           Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true copy of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this CD. He has also indicated that he has “provided a true copy of the CD entitled 139 to many American and Canadian law enforcement authorities and not one of the police forces or officers of the court are willing to investigate it”. Since he has indicated that this is an “American police surveillance wiretap”, this is a matter for the American law enforcement authorities and cannot create, as Mr. Amos suggests, a conflict of interest for any judge to whom he provides a copy.

[23]           As a result, there is no conflict or reasonable apprehension of bias for Justice Webb and therefore, no reason for him to recuse himself.

[24]           Mr. Amos alleged that Justice Near’s past professional experience with the government created a “quasi-conflict” in deciding the cross-appeal. Mr. Amos provided no details and Justice Near confirmed that he had no prior knowledge of the matters alleged in the Claim. Justice Near sees no reason to recuse himself.

[25]           Insofar as it is possible to glean the basis for Mr. Amos’ allegations against Justice Gleason, it appears that he alleges that she is incapable of hearing this appeal because he says he wrote a letter to Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien in 2004. At that time, both Justice Gleason and Mr. Mulroney were partners in the law firm Ogilvy Renault, LLP. The letter in question, which is rude and angry, begins with “Hey you two Evil Old Smiling Bastards” and “Re: me suing you and your little dogs too”. There is no indication that the letter was ever responded to or that a law suit was ever commenced by Mr. Amos against Mr. Mulroney. In the circumstances, there is no reason for Justice Gleason to recuse herself as the letter in question does not give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias.


III.               Issue

[26]           The issue on the cross-appeal is as follows: Did the Judge err in setting aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the Claim in its entirety without leave to amend and in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action?

IV.              Analysis 

A.                 Standard of Review

[27]           Following the Judge’s decision to set aside the Prothonotary’s Order, this Court revisited the standard of review to be applied to discretionary decisions of prothonotaries and decisions made by judges on appeals of prothonotaries’ decisions in Hospira Healthcare Corp. v. Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, 2016 FCA 215, 402 D.L.R. (4th) 497 [Hospira]. In Hospira, a five-member panel of this Court replaced the Aqua-Gem standard of review with that articulated in Housen v. Nikolaisen, 2002 SCC 33, [2002] 2 S.C.R. 235 [Housen]. As a result, it is no longer appropriate for the Federal Court to conduct a de novo review of a discretionary order made by a prothonotary in regard to questions vital to the final issue of the case. Rather, a Federal Court judge can only intervene on appeal if the prothonotary made an error of law or a palpable and overriding error in determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and law (Hospira at para. 79). Further, this Court can only interfere with a Federal Court judge’s review of a prothonotary’s discretionary order if the judge made an error of law or palpable and overriding error in determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and law (Hospira at paras. 82-83).

[28]           In the case at bar, the Judge substituted his own assessment of Mr. Amos’ Claim for that of the Prothonotary. This Court must look to the Prothonotary’s Order to determine whether the Judge erred in law or made a palpable and overriding error in choosing to interfere. 


B.                 Did the Judge err in interfering with the Prothonotary’s Order?

[29]           The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following paragraphs from the Crown’s submissions as the basis for striking the Claim in its entirety without leave to amend:

17.       Within the 96 paragraph Statement of Claim, the Plaintiff addresses his complaint in paragraphs 14-24, inclusive. All but four of those paragraphs are dedicated to an incident that occurred in 2006 in and around the legislature in New Brunswick. The jurisdiction of the Federal Court does not extend to Her Majesty the Queen in right of the Provinces. In any event, the Plaintiff hasn’t named the Province or provincial actors as parties to this action. The incident alleged does not give rise to a justiciable cause of action in this Court.
(…)


21.       The few paragraphs that directly address the Defendant provide no details as to the individuals involved or the location of the alleged incidents or other details sufficient to allow the Defendant to respond. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to determine the causes of action the Plaintiff is attempting to advance. A generous reading of the Statement of Claim allows the Defendant to only speculate as to the true and/or intended cause of action. At best, the Plaintiff’s action may possibly be summarized as: he suspects he is barred from the House of Commons.
[footnotes omitted].


[30]           The Judge determined that he could not strike the Claim on the same jurisdictional basis as the Prothonotary. The Judge noted that the Federal Court has jurisdiction over claims based on the liability of Federal Crown servants like the RCMP and that the actors who barred Mr. Amos from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 included the RCMP (Federal Court Judgment at para. 23). In considering the viability of these allegations de novo, the Judge identified paragraph 14 of the Claim as containing “some precision” as it identifies the date of the event and a RCMP officer acting as Aide-de-Camp to the Lieutenant Governor (Federal Court Judgment at para. 27).


[31]           The Judge noted that the 2004 event could support a cause of action in the tort of misfeasance in public office and identified the elements of the tort as excerpted from Meigs v. Canada, 2013 FC 389, 431 F.T.R. 111:


[13]      As in both the cases of Odhavji Estate v Woodhouse, 2003 SCC 69 [Odhavji] and Lewis v Canada, 2012 FC 1514 [Lewis], I must determine whether the plaintiffs’ statement of claim pleads each element of the alleged tort of misfeasance in public office:

a) The public officer must have engaged in deliberate and unlawful conduct in his or her capacity as public officer;

b) The public officer must have been aware both that his or her conduct was unlawful and that it was likely to harm the plaintiff; and

c) There must be an element of bad faith or dishonesty by the public officer and knowledge of harm alone is insufficient to conclude that a public officer acted in bad faith or dishonestly.
Odhavji, above, at paras 23, 24 and 28
(Federal Court Judgment at para. 28).

[32]           The Judge determined that Mr. Amos disclosed sufficient material facts to meet the elements of the tort of misfeasance in public office because the actors, who barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004, including the RCMP, did so for “political reasons” (Federal Court Judgment at para. 29).

[33]           This Court’s discussion of the sufficiency of pleadings in Merchant Law Group v. Canada (Revenue Agency), 2010 FCA 184, 321 D.L.R (4th) 301 is particularly apt:

…When pleading bad faith or abuse of power, it is not enough to assert, baldly, conclusory phrases such as “deliberately or negligently,” “callous disregard,” or “by fraud and theft did steal”. “The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called upon to pronounce is not an allegation of material fact”. Making bald, conclusory allegations without any evidentiary foundation is an abuse of process…

To this, I would add that the tort of misfeasance in public office requires a particular state of mind of a public officer in carrying out the impunged action, i.e., deliberate conduct which the public officer knows to be inconsistent with the obligations of his or her office. For this tort, particularization of the allegations is mandatory. Rule 181 specifically requires particularization of allegations of “breach of trust,” “wilful default,” “state of mind of a person,” “malice” or “fraudulent intention.”
(at paras. 34-35, citations omitted).

[34]           Applying the Housen standard of review to the Prothonotary’s Order, we are of the view that the Judge interfered absent a legal or palpable and overriding error.

[35]           The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim disclosed no reasonable claim and was fundamentally vexatious on the basis of jurisdictional concerns and the absence of material facts to ground a cause of action. Paragraph 14 of the Claim, which addresses the 2004 event, pleads no material facts as to how the RCMP officer engaged in deliberate and unlawful conduct, knew that his or her conduct was unlawful and likely to harm Mr. Amos, and acted in bad faith. While the Claim alleges elsewhere that Mr. Amos was barred from the New Brunswick legislature for political and/or malicious reasons, these allegations are not particularized and are directed against non-federal actors, such as the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick and the Fredericton Police Force. As such, the Judge erred in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action.

[36]           In our view, the Claim is made up entirely of bare allegations, devoid of any detail, such that it discloses no reasonable cause of action within the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts. Therefore, the Judge erred in interfering to set aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the claim in its entirety. Further, we find that the Prothonotary made no error in denying leave to amend. The deficiencies in Mr. Amos’ pleadings are so extensive such that amendment could not cure them (see Collins at para. 26).

V.                 Conclusion
[37]           For the foregoing reasons, we would allow the Crown’s cross-appeal, with costs, setting aside the Federal Court Judgment, dated January 25, 2016 and restoring the Prothonotary’s Order, dated November 12, 2015, which struck Mr. Amos’ Claim in its entirety without leave to amend.

Civil liberties group threatens lawsuit, N.B. premier stands by changes to LGBTQ policy

Policy will come into effect before any legal action, Canadian Civil Liberties Association says


Hadeel Ibrahim· CBC News · Posted: Jun 29, 2023 1:21 PM ADT

The changes made to Policy 713 are "unlawful and unconstitutional and should not stand," Harini Sivalingam, director of equality for the Canadian Civil Liberties Association said Thursday outside the legislature, where the group held a news conference.

"I am here ... to deliver a final message to the government of New Brunswick," she said. "Canadians from all across the country are watching."

Education Minister Bill Hogan has announced changes to the school policy that sets out minimum requirements for a safe learning environment for LGBTQ students.

He said the changes to Policy 713 ban teachers and staff from using a child under 16's chosen name and pronoun, even informally and verbally, unless parents consent. 

Under the revised policy, if a child says no to including parents, they're to be directed to a school psychologist or social worker to come up with a plan to eventually include the parents.

CBC News has sought a response from government.

National civil liberties group threatens legal action against New Brunswick

Duration 1:16
The Canadian Civil Liberties Association delivers ‘final message,’ calling on Premiere Blaine Higgs to reverse changes to the gender-identity policy for schools.

The changes are expected to come into effect on July 1, before any legal action begins.

Higgs and Hogan have previously said they changed the policy to protect "the rights of parents to know" what's going on with their children. They said teachers were keeping secrets from parents by not notifying them when a child requests to use a different pronoun informally in class.

Since it was introduced in 2020, Police 713 has always required parental consent for official name changes for children under 16 in school records.

A man in suit and tie and wearing glasses speaks. New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs previously said the changes to the policy on gender identity is meant to protect 'the rights of parents.' (Stephen MacGillivray/The Canadian Press)

Education, legal, child welfare and mental heath experts have all spoken out against the changes. The child and youth advocate called the changes "shoddy" and "inadvertently discriminatory."

The union representing school psychologists said rejecting a child's request for a specific pronoun will "increase the risk of self-harm and suicide," and it's grieving the changes because it "coerces" members to contravene the children's human rights.

Sivalingam said lawyers for the civil liberties group are looking at the new policy and compiling a legal strategy for a lawsuit. She did not share a specific timeline for a legal challenge.

Sivalingam said the review to the policy began because of an anti-LGBTQ "vocal minority," and the premier did not protect LGBTQ children from this group.

"[Premier Blaine Higgs] capitulated to extremist views and he forgot that New Brunswick is not Florida," she said, referring to the anti-transgender legislation that's been passed in the state. 

Trans students 'will start disappearing'

Evie Robinson-Dyck, a Grade 12 Saint John High School student, spoke at the news conference about what could happen if the policy changes are applied next school year. She said said kids will have to stay in the closet because getting their parents' consent is not an option.

"These amazing friend and community members that I have known …Will start disappearing and disappearing, they'll have to change their names and their pronouns, they'll stop being themselves," she said.

The ones who will treat their child differently. Who will be physically mentally or verbally abusive based on names, pronouns, their sexualities, and things that are truly just who we are."

So do it. Don't expect schools to teach transphobic ideology. Do it on your own time. Your kids are in school to learn, and learning is enhanced significantly by a respectful environment.

What debate?

This was not going to come between children and parents, incidentally. If you don't already know your own child's identity, you've already placed something significant between yourself and them. And it's not the school.

Incidentally, we know that a respectful environment enhances learning. The original policy would have provided that. Now it does not. So the original policy's opponents have no ground from which to claim they care about learning.

As New Brunswick changes its LGBTQ policy in schools, advocates worry it's just the beginning

'There's nothing stopping a government from passing discriminatory legislation,' says professor

 
Natalie Stechyson· CBC News · Posted: Jun 28, 2023 5:00 AM ADT

A policy about LGBTQ students at the heart of a political battle in New Brunswick could have a ripple effect across Canada, according to experts who say they're concerned it could open the door for other provincial governments to make similar changes.

New Brunswick's Policy 713, which was introduced in August 2020, outlines minimum requirements for a safe environment for LGBTQ students. Earlier in June, the province's Progressive Conservative government made changes to the policy, scheduled to take effect on July 1.

If those changes go forward, similar "attacks against the transgender and the non-binary community" could happen elsewhere in Canada, said Kristopher Wells, an associate professor at MacEwan University in Edmonton, and the Canada Research Chair for the Public Understanding of Sexual and Gender Minority Youth.

"Once one government makes a change, then it becomes often easier or more popular for other governments to consider those changes as well," he told CBC News.

"I think other provinces are obviously watching very closely to see what the potential fallout will be," said Helen Kennedy, the executive director for LGBTQ advocacy group Egale Canada.

New Brunswick's recent changes to the policy mean it's no longer mandatory for teachers to use the preferred pronouns or names of transgender or non-binary students under the age of 16.

A teacher or school would need to obtain parental consent for any child who wants to change their name at school. A student who refuses parental involvement would be referred to a school psychologist or social worker to develop a plan to inform the student's parents.

Premier Blaine Higgs has said that the changes reflect the government's desire to ensure parents play a role in the "formative years" of their children.

Higgs defended the changes again Tuesday during an interview with CBC's Power and Politics, saying he was seeing "a tremendous outpouring of support" for his position.

"Nationally, people are saying, 'Why wouldn't parents play a role?'" he said.

‘Trans kids need to feel safe’: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau weighs in on Policy 713

Duration 0:32
Speaking at a Pride event Thursday night in Toronto, the prime minister spoke out against changes made by the Higgs government to Policy 713.

Backlash, political debate

The change has caused turmoil in Higgs' cabinet, including two resignations. On Tuesday, he dropped two ministers who had voted against him on the gender-identity policy. Unionized school psychologists and social workers have filed two grievances with the provincial government.

It has also sparked federal debate, with both Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre chiming in. Speaking at a Pride even in Toronto earlier in June, Trudeau spoke out against the changes.

"Trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians. We need to stand against this," he said.

On Tuesday, Poilievre told reporters that Trudeau should stay out of it, saying "the prime minister has no business in decisions that should rest with provinces and parents." 

"So my message to Justin Trudeau is, 'Butt out and let provinces run schools and let parents raise kids.'"

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre says the prime minister needs to let 'provinces run schools and parents raise children.'

The changes have drawn national attention, with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) saying it will cause harm to trans and non-binary kids — not just in New Brunswick, but potentially across Canada.

"Make no mistake that this decision sets a dangerous precedent and that could instigate similar attempts to harm the rights of children across the country," Harini Sivalingam, lawyer and director of the Equality Program at the CCLA, said in a June 9 press release.

Meanwhile, a conservative Christian group based in B.C. is calling it a test case for its own efforts to roll back school LGBTQ policies.

Court challenges an option that take time

LGBTQ rights in Canada are protected under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression are protected in every provincial and territorial Human Rights Act.

According to Wells, this means any public institution by law must provide a discrimination-free environment.

According to Kristopher Wells, an associate professor at MacEwan University in Edmonton, and the Canada Research Chair for the Public Understanding of Sexual and Gender Minority Youth, 'there's nothing stopping a government from passing discriminatory legislation.' (MacEwan University)

"But that doesn't mean that the rights won through the courts and through government can't be stripped away or taken away," he said. 

Wells points to what happened after Jason Kenney was elected premier in Alberta — his United Conservative Party passed a controversial education bill that rolled back previous protections for children who join Gay-Straight Alliances in schools.

While politicians can pass legislation or policies that can be seen as discriminatory, these can also be challenged in the courts, Wells said, noting that there are checks and balances in the system.

In New Brunswick, he said, the only recourse the community really has is to either file a human rights complaint or go through the court system.

"But the reality is it takes a long time to challenge a government in court to get legislation ruled as being unconstitutional and stricken down," Wells said.

"There's nothing stopping a government from passing discriminatory legislation. That's why people need to to be very careful about how they vote."

Just the beginning?

Egale Canada's Kennedy says she worries the changes to Policy 713 are just the beginning.

"Do I see a political trend here to scapegoat members of the 2SLGBTQI community? Absolutely," Kennedy said. "We forget that there are human beings attached to the other end of all these political opportunist actions."

It's a hostile environment right now for the LGBTQ community, she said, noting the recent targeting of Pride flags as just one example.

Several communities across Canada, including Norwich, Ont., and Hope, B.C., have recently decided not to fly Pride flags. There have also been reports this year of flags in various provinces being stolendamaged and burned

Earlier this month, students in Vaughan, Ont., walked out over the York Catholic District School Board's decision not to raise a Pride flag at its education centre.

As far as Policy 713 is concerned, Kennedy says other provinces are likely looking at both the political response — will an election be called? Will Higgs fall? — and the community response, such as parental pushback. And while she says it's been encouraging to see some opposition, she also says the damage has been done.

"It's out there. We all know how [Higgs] feels about members of the 2SLGBTQI communities, and it's disturbing," she said.

"Every child, every student, has a right to a safe and inclusive education."

Political revolt amid LGBTQ changes in New Brunswick
24:24

SAROJA COELHO:Hi, I'm Saroja Coelho.

SOUNDCLIP

BLAINE HIGGS:Mr. Speaker, we're seeing a rapid onset of gender dysphoria. It's expanded the last several years, and it's becoming popular and trendy.

SAROJA COELHO:What you're hearing is the top politician in New Brunswick, Premier Blaine Higgs, in an address that is laden with misleading comments about trans people. He's defending changes to a policy that was designed to protect LGBTQ students. But as of this Saturday, his government says that children under 16 will need permission from their parents if school staff are going to use their preferred pronouns.

SOUNDCLIP

BLAINE HIGGS:It really came to light, Mr. Speaker, when the story-time issues became more prevalent, more pronounced. When it came into policy in 2020, it kind of slid into the system without much being known about it.

SAROJA COELHO:The Canadian Civil Liberties Association has said reviewing a policy like this is unprecedented in Canada. LGBTQ advocates say forcing kids to come out to unwelcoming parents is a real danger. And on the national stage, this has drawn fire from the prime minister.

SOUNDCLIP

JUSTIN TRUDEAU:Trans kids in New Brunswick are being told they don't have the right to be their true selves; that they need to ask permission. Well, trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians.

SAROJA COELHO:And then there's the reaction from the official opposition.

SOUNDCLIP

PIERRE POILIEVRE:My message to Justin Trudeau is butt out and let provinces run schools, and let parents raise kids.

SAROJA COELHO:Some MLAs in Higgs' own party are in revolt over a long line of controversies, and it appears enough leaders have signed letters to trigger a vote on his leadership. So why is Blaine Higgs bent on changes that critics are calling discriminatory? And what could this mean for the wider identity of conservative politics in Canada and the future of LGBTQ rights? To explain, I am joined today by two of my colleagues from New Brunswick. Hadeel Ibrahim has been covering the impacts of the upcoming changes, and Jacques Poitras is the provincial affairs reporter. Hi, Hadeel. Hi, Jacques.

HADEEL IBRAHIM:Hi.

JACQUES POITRAS:Hello.

SAROJA COELHO:So Hadeel, I'm going to begin with you. Policy 713 was originally enacted in 2020. The idea was to protect LGBTQ students. Then in May of this year, we found out that the education department under Premier Higgs was reviewing it. The next step to this story is that this month, what three specific changes were announced.

HADEEL IBRAHIM:So I'll start with the self-identification section of the policy. The original policy said that all school staff and teachers have to respect all children's chosen names and pronouns, and use them regardless of age or parental consent. It also stipulated that if a child under 16 wanted to change their name and pronoun officially in school records, they would have to get parental consent. But the principal has to explain to the child that means that their parents will have to be told about their identity. And if the child says no to including their parents, then the school would come up with a plan to continue to use their chosen name and pronoun informally, and continue to use their birth names in official records. The new policy, it keeps the mandate to respect students' chosen names and pronouns, but only for kids who are 16 years old and older. And the section about requiring parental consent for children under 16 for official changes is still there, and it says that if a child says no to including their parents, they now have to be, quote: "directed to a school psychologist or social worker to come up with a plan to include their family if and when they're ready." So the minister says that that effectively means that while the child is working to include their parents, the teachers and school staff would have to continue using their birth name and pronoun regardless of what they requested, even informally, verbally in the classroom. The second change was for-- The old policy said that kids should be able to participate in all extra curriculars in a safe and welcoming environment, and that are consistent with their gender identity. The minister of education removed the reference to 'consistent with their gender identity,' so now it just ends at safe and welcoming. And the third change was actually considered a win for the LGBTQ community, because they were worried that there would be changes to washroom access. But that policy remained pretty much the same. There was an addition of a requirement that each school would have to have at least one gender neutral or universal change room, on top of the requirement that was already there for at least one gender neutral washroom.

SAROJA COELHO:Jacques, I want to turn to you. Adding to this controversy, there has been Higgs' own comments to defend these changes. What has he said about transgender youth and why he thinks these changes are necessary?

JACQUES POITRAS:Well, he has talked almost exclusively about the role of parents. And one of the striking things in almost all of his comments that Hadeel pointed out to me, actually: you never hear him talk about the children or from the perspective of a trans student in schools. He-- There was a very contentious scrum with journalists at the legislature one day, where he essentially was questioning the journalists in the scrum who were parents, about their own parenting if they didn't understand where he was coming from on this.

SOUNDCLIP

BLAINE HIGGS:It's clear from this scrum, is that you feel parents play no role in their child's growing up and maturing. That seems to be the theme.

JOURNALIST:We're asking questions.

BLAINE HIGGS:Yeah, well, I'm giving a perception of what is very evident here.

JOURNALIST 2: We're asking questions, and most of us are parents, too.

BLAINE HIGGS:Right? Yes. You should be very concerned.

JACQUES POITRAS:You know, some of his colleagues who have supported the review have allowed for the possibility that there would be cases where a student would not feel safe talking to their parents about their gender identity or their sexual orientation. But the premier himself, that has not entered the conversation. So that's where he's coming from. And then, you know, he's made comments in the legislature during the debate on an opposition motion on this, where he talked about gender dysphoria, and said we have a situation that's growing because there's been such acceptance that this is fine.

SOUNDCLIP

BLAINE HIGGS:And, Mr. Speaker, there's also great evidence, I would say, that in later years when major surgeries have been done, when we see situations where there have been physical changes made and you can't go back, they're irreversible. That we see Europe looking at this now and saying, whoa, what's happening here? Because the suicide rate in those age groups is going up, dramatically.

JACQUES POITRAS:And so those are comments that have really provoked strong reaction from advocates.

SAROJA COELHO:I'm going to go back to Hadeel for that, because you're quite right, Jacques. Hadeel, just to be clear here, what does the research say about why we are seeing more youth come out as transgender?

HADEEL IBRAHIM:So there is a need for more research on this because it is a fairly recent phenomenon, I guess, where there's a big increase in the number of young people who identify as transgender. But the experts that I spoke to - psychologists, pediatricians - they said that there is no evidence that there is this idea of social contagion or this kind of rapid onset temporary gender identity confusion.

SOUNDCLIP

PSYCHOLOGIST:I don't think it's so much of, like, a contagion. You know, like, 'My child's friend was trans, so now they think they're trans.' I just think that children who have, and teens that have things in common, tend to spend time together.

HADEEL IBRAHIM:What the experts are saying is - like, most likely, and the leading theory - is that there has been an increase in representation, an increase in acceptance, and a decrease in discrimination, a relative decrease in discrimination, that is encouraging people to be more open about their identity. So it's not necessarily increasing the number of transgender kids, it's just allowing them to be more visible.

SAROJA COELHO:Jacques, do you think you could give me a bit of a backstory on Higgs? Before he came to the Conservative Party, where was he from and how did he spend his career?

JACQUES POITRAS:Well, his professional career was with Irving Oil, which is a, you know, very well-known, high-profile company in New Brunswick. They run Canada's largest oil refinery, which is where he worked in a senior management role. The other thing about Blaine Higgs is he was part of a, in effect, a protest party in the late 1980s. He ran for the leadership of the Confederation of Regions Party, which was an offshoot of the Progressive Conservatives back when they were divided on a number of questions, including official bilingualism. And they were briefly the official opposition in New Brunswick, and sort of populist, small-c conservative, and very vehemently opposed to New Brunswick's official bilingualism, which is entrenched in the Constitution. So when he ran for the Progressive Conservatives in 2010, he'd never held elective office. He joined the PC party that year to run. So he's always been regarded by some in the party - moderates and francophones, in particular - with a bit of wariness; as a visitor to the party who isn't necessarily someone who really has always appreciated sort of the bedrock values of the party as a centre party. A party that tries to bridge language differences and tries to be moderate in its approach.

SAROJA COELHO:I want to go straight to some of his personal beliefs, things that he's brought with him. Both of you have covered his beliefs on abortion. What have you seen there?

JACQUES POITRAS:Well, for one thing, you know, in 2014, the new Liberal premier made a change to abortion regulations, where he eliminated a requirement that a woman had to have the consent of two doctors to get an abortion covered by Medicare in a hospital. And Blaine Higgs, then an opposition member, gave a very impassioned speech, where his personal views was clear that he was against it, and would be called, you know, anti-abortion or pro-life.

SOUNDCLIP

BLAINE HIGGS:So I ask that, you know, is there a right to end life? And in many cases you have to say, we believe in all other aspects of society. There is not a right to end life. Is it convenient? Well, yes, it seems that we think it is. My question is to the premier....

JACQUES POITRAS:As premier, he's made that view clear, although he hasn't turned back any policies. He has also resisted a sort of growing push for more access.

SAROJA COELHO:Well, there's also a lot of growing discontent around him. Certainly a vibrant debate happening within the party before the 713 changes this month. Which have been the most controversial?

JACQUES POITRAS:Well, there are quite a number. But one is, you know, English schools in New Brunswick: there's a French immersion program - a second language program - for English kids to learn French. The government decided last fall that they would replace that with a new program. That-- There were a lot of labels attached to it, but in fact, it was going to mean a lot less second language French instruction in English schools. And there was a huge reaction to that.

SOUNDCLIP

REPORTER: For the third time in two weeks, New Brunswick's education minister found himself in the hot seat over proposed changes to French immersion. Over 300 people filling the room for the latest consultation.

JACQUES POITRAS:The government did eventually back down because it was clear that it was costing them dearly. So those are-- In some of the discussion about Policy 713, where some people within his party have talked about his, you know, his lack of consultation, his unwillingness to listen to experts, to civil servants, to people within his own cabinet and caucus, they've also said that the same thing happened with this French immersion change.

SAROJA COELHO:Hadeel, I'm going to come to you. Let's get into the current reaction over Policy 713. This month, six of Higgs' MLAs actually revolted and voted for the province's child and youth advocate to do a full consultation on the changes that have been suggested specifically around transgender children. So just before this, what did the advocate himself have to say?

HADEEL IBRAHIM:So the child and youth advocate came out with a reaction report calling for a complete reversal of all the changes. He said the changes in the new policy is shoddy and unclear; the minister's interpretation is not totally borne out by the written policy, so. He also said that, specifically, the new changes on self-identification can be inadvertently discriminatory, because it basically adds a specific special rule for name changes if the child was transgender. And there's no other, you know, similar rules for if it was a nickname.

SOUNDCLIP

ADVOCATE KELLY LAMROCK:Now you have two different processes. So if Kelly says, “Could you call me ‘Kel’?” -- that isn't covered. The people just respect that. But if there is a situation where somebody is choosing a name and you suspect it might be for gender-identity purposes, you have a whole different process and new barriers. That's textbook legal discrimination.

SAROJA COELHO:Meanwhile, we've had response from people who work directly with children. I mean, clearly this has caused an eruption of conversation and dissent. What have school psychologists had to say about these changes?

HADEEL IBRAHIM:So school psychologists and social workers were mentioned by name in the amended policy, and they said that they were not consulted. If they were, they would say that this is not something that they would want to participate in. So they came out with a statement saying that denying a child's request for a specific pronoun to be used can cause harm; that misgendering children can increase the risk of self-harm and suicide. And they said that they would not-- basically, would not be following this policy. And their union has filed two grievances against the policy, saying that it is unclear, and it also coerces psychologists and social workers into contravening the Human Rights Act. So they are asking that these changes don't apply to them, because they don't want to be complicit in harming children.

SOUNDCLIP

TRANSGENDER YOUTH:I came out at school first, just because it was a more comfortable space. One of my friends would most likely get kicked out of their house, and another one could be at risk of physical abuse. Like, that's the reality of the situation, and that's what this policy was originally trying to prevent.

SAROJA COELHO:If we go a little bit further here: even before Higgs shuffled his cabinet to oust two of the MLAs who had been part of that revolt - that was just this week - two other members had resigned. So why did the first resign? That was Social Development Minister Dorothy Shephard. And what did she say about what was the breaking point for her? Jacques, I'll come to you for that.

JACQUES POITRAS:She said that Policy 713 and the process on it - you know, the way the premier didn't listen to his caucus and cabinet - was the last straw for her. But she made it clear that it was really just the latest in a series of these examples.

SOUNDCLIP

DOROTHY SHEPHARD:I resigned because there is no process. Cabinet and caucus are routinely dismissed. I have been struggling with this since October of 2021. I have had colleagues and friends encourage me to stay in the inner circle, to do the best I can do. I feel I've done that, but I've run out of runway. There's no accomplishing anything more...

JACQUES POITRAS:She actually released a letter that she'd written to him a couple of years ago, where she said that, you know, he often ignores what civil servants and experts are telling him, what his caucus is telling him, and is sort of influenced by the last person he spoke to, who plants some idea in his mind that happens to conform with his existing way of thinking. And then a minister or some staff in a department have to spend time kind of getting him off that idea and back to square one, and then they have to start over explaining issues. So that, that seems to be the common diagnosis.

SAROJA COELHO:But the revolt against Higgs hasn't ended where you're describing it. In fact, I'm seeing lots of little fires here on the political landscape. Jacques, how have we seen MLAs and riding associations pushing for a leadership review, which essentially could lead to the ousting of Higgs?

JACQUES POITRAS:That's right. I mean, this has been going on in two tracks. There was in the legislature with the caucus and the cabinet -- that's kind of where it's at now because he shuffled his cabinet. But then separate from that - but influenced by it, obviously - is, you know, grassroots party members. There's thousands of them in the province, and they have been-- The presidents of the riding associations have been signing letters asking for a leadership review. Now, it's a long process and there's several steps, but the first trigger of that would be 20 riding association presidents signing this letter. Well, they-- they've surpassed 26, I think, at last count. That's more than a majority of the ridings in the province. So there is a considerable amount of support within the party to push forward and eventually get to a convention where party members would vote on whether they want to remove him as leader. But there are a lot of steps to go through, and I don't think we can take for granted that that vote would succeed. But there's certainly a growing constituency for that within the party.

SAROJA COELHO:I want to take a bit of a cynic's view here, because I'm not entirely understanding sticking to things like reducing or reviewing rights available for transgender children in the midst of all of this discontent and conversation. Is it possible that transgender children are being used as a piece of political leverage? Because I'm not really sure that kids are at the centre of this conversation.

JACQUES POITRAS:Well, I'll say this: he has backed down in the past. So we talked about French immersion and how he backed down on that. There were some difficult hospital reforms that were announced in 2020 that he backed down on, when it looked like he would lose a confidence vote in the legislature. On this one, he has stuck to it.

SOUNDCLIP

BLAINE HIGGS:It potentially could force an election. That's a possibility.

REPORTER 2: Would you do that?

BLAINE HIGGS:It's not without the realm of possibility. I believe that strongly, in the case of finding a solution here, where we do not exclude parents in their child's life.

JACQUES POITRAS:I mean, we could analyze that as a political move because maybe there is a lot of support among some Conservatives, among the party base. They are getting a lot of emails from different groups that are voicing support for what he's doing. Just today, I saw an email from a religious conservative activist who was asking her supporters to sign on to say they support Blaine Higgs on this. So they may be reading it as something that will help them win an election. But, you know, there's some debate about that because it's those voters in the middle who didn't vote for him in 2018, but who voted for him in 2020 because they liked his handling of COVID. Where would they go in an election fought on this? It's, it's really hard to say.

SAROJA COELHO:Hadeel, I want to broaden this out nationally. We've talked about what's happening in the United States with politicians attacking trans rights, and how that discourse has then enabled the emergence of extremist views. So why are there fears, as this discussion unfolds in New Brunswick, that the discrimination could spread outside the province?

HADEEL IBRAHIM:So it is a fact that there is a rise in anti-transgender sentiment -- not only in the U.S., but also in Canada. Generally, anti-LGBTQ sentiment. But it seems to be really focused on transgender people. In this case, in New Brunswick, this is the first time in the country that an elected politician is kind of using some talking points that we are hearing in places like Florida where there was a ban on transgender care for children under 18. He's not going that far. But basically, what advocates are saying is any challenge to the right of these vulnerable children, any talk about bringing them back or rolling them back, is really scary because they are the most recent rights that have been asserted. And so with an elected politician saying things like, you know, gender dysphoria is trendy and popular, and, you know, lamenting the risk of children getting hormone treatment and then regretting it later, not addressing that there are safeguards in place and that actually surgery can only be done on people 18 and over -- all of that is kind of scaring people because it's adding to those talking points.

SAROJA COELHO:Well, you're speaking there really to an information and misinformation campaign that is very effective when it comes to issues like this. The murkier it gets, the more frightening it is for people. What is happening with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association in the meantime?

HADEEL IBRAHIM:Right. So they are making an announcement today. I don't know exactly what they will be announcing. But before the review results were announced they said that they would seriously consider legal action depending on what the results are. They've told me that their lawyers have been reviewing the changes. They have been talking with the local LGBTQ organizations, and they said they might either file their own legal action or support a legal action on behalf of a local organization. They're already suing the province for abortion access, so I guess they're kind of familiar with the landscape here.

SAROJA COELHO:Ultimately, this comes down to a question about what parents have the right to know about their child, versus the rights of children to safely make decisions about their own identity. What are experts saying about why children's rights need to take precedence? Why what's happening to them emotionally and psychologically is really where we should be placing our concentration?

HADEEL IBRAHIM:Well, experts are saying the way that children transition if they are questioning their gender identity: they would usually open up first in an informal way at school or among their friends or to one trusted adult. And teachers can be that trusted adult, and that is just the first step in coming into their identity. So if the parent is going to be supportive, the experts say, you know, your kid will tell you eventually. Also, there's this fear that this is going to, you know, start them off on a path that's permanent, that they might regret, and making decisions based on, like, social media and things like that. But the psychological experts that I spoke to are saying that using a different pronoun is a natural part of a child's discovery of their identity. So not every kid who's going to use a different pronoun is going to be a trans child. Allowing them to explore that will help them know. We also don't have any evidence that, quote unquote, "indulging that request" will hurt them. It causes harm to reject this request, and there is no proven harm to using the pronoun informally.

SAROJA COELHO:I want to thank you both for helping us understand what's happening in New Brunswick and what it might mean for the wider country. Thank you so much for this conversation.

JACQUES POITRAS:Thank you.

HADEEL IBRAHIM:Thank you.

SAROJA COELHO:And that's it for this edition of Front Burner. I'm Saroja Coelho. Thanks for listening.

David Raymond Amos Versus The Crown T-1557-15



                                                                                             Court File No. T-1557-15

FEDERAL COURT

BETWEEN:                      
DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
                                                                                                  Plaintiff
and

HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
                                                                                                  Defendant

STATEMENT OF CLAIM

The Parties

1.      HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN (Crown) is Elizabeth II, the Queen of England, the Protector of the Faith of the Church of England, the longest reigning monarch of the United Kingdom and one of the wealthiest persons in the world. Canada pays homage to the Queen because she remained the Head of State and the Chief Executive Officer of Canada after the Canada Act 1982(U.K.) 1982, c. 11 came into force on April 17, 1982. The standing of the Queen in Canada was explained within the 2002Annual Report FORM 18-K filed by Canada with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It states as follows:

     “The executive power of the federal Government is vested in the Queen, represented by the Governor General, whose powers are exercised on the advice of the federal Cabinet, which is responsible to the House of Commons. The legislative branch at the federal level, Parliament, consists of the Crown, the Senate and the House of Commons.”

     “The executive power in each province is vested in the Lieutenant Governor, appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the federal Cabinet. The Lieutenant Governor’s powers are exercised on the advice of the provincial cabinet, which is responsible to the legislative assembly. Each provincial legislature is composed of a Lieutenant Governor and a legislative assembly made up of members elected for a period of five years.”      

2.      Her Majesty the Queen is the named defendant pursuant to sections 23(1) and 36 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act. Some of the state actors whose duties and actions are at issue in this action are the Prime Minister, Premiers, Governor General, Lieutenant Governors, members of the Canadian Forces (CF), and Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), federal and provincial Ministers of Public Safety, Ministers of Justice, Ministers of Finance, Speakers, Clerks, Sergeants-at-Arms and any other person acting as Aide-de-Camp providing security within and around the House of Commons, the legislative assemblies or acting as security for other federal, provincial and municipal properties.

3.      Her Majesty the Queen’s servants the RCMP whose mandate is to serve and protect Canadian citizens and assist in the security of parliamentary properties and the protection of public officials should not deny a correspondence from a former Deputy Prime Minister who was appointed to be Canada’s first Minister of Public Safety in order to oversee the RCMP and their cohorts. The letter that helped to raise the ire of a fellow Canadian citizen who had never voted in his life to run for public office four times thus far is quoted as follows:

  “Mr. David R. Amos                                                               Jan 3rd, 2004

153Alvin Avenue

   Milton, MA U.S.A. 02186

                Dear Mr. Amos

      Thank you for your letter of November 19th, 2003, addressed to   
                my predecessor, the Honourble Wayne Easter, regarding your safety.  
                I apologize for the delay in responding.

      If you have any concerns about your personal safety, I can only
               suggest that you contact the police of local jurisdiction. In addition, any
               evidence of criminal activity should be brought to their attention since the
               police are in the best position to evaluate the information and take action
               as deemed appropriate.

       I trust that this information is satisfactory.

                                                              Yours sincerely
                                                                        A. Anne McLellan”

 

 


74.  The Plaintiff states that in June of 2009 while Byron Prior was before the court a supporter of his, Robin Reid informed the Plaintiff that she was barred from the legislative properties of Alberta and while visiting a constituency office of a MP she had been arrested by the RCMP and assaulted in a locked cell of a hospital in the St Albert area of Alberta. Her arrest was after her visits to the constituency offices of the Prime Minister and an Edmonton MLA. Ms. Reid forwarded her emails to and from the Prime Minister’s office, the RCMP, a former Premier and the office of the Sergeant-at-Arms and asked the Plaintiff to support her. The Plaintiff introduced himself to all the aforementioned parties in order to assist Robin Reid and they were ignored for years. In 2012 the Plaintiff discovered he could no longer assist Ms. Reid because she agreed with the actions of Neo Nazis who supported Byron Prior and Werner Bock. The RCMP and many other law enforcement authorities in Canada and the USA are well aware of the reasons why the Plaintiff is not associated with such people in any fashion other than to attack them with his written words. Neo Nazis are not worthy of further mention in this complaint against the Crown but their Zionist foe, Barry Winters is.  

75.  The Plaintiff states that the RCMP is well aware of the libel, sexual harassment, and death threats practiced against his family that have been published on the Internet since 2005 by fans (Trolls) who supported Byron Prior. Four Trolls who live in Alberta are Barry Winters, Dean Roger Ray, Eddy Achtem and Patrick Doran They have many “Anonymous” cohorts throughout Canada, the USA and the United Kingdom. The actions of these Trolls created an important example of cyberbullying. Law enforcement officials have ignored these Trolls because of the Plaintiff’s standing as a whistleblower exposing corruption within the justice system. The Plaintiff is aware that several people complained about their actions over the years. In fact the mother of Dean Roger Ray recently her indignation in Barry Winter’s blog. Complaints about Barry Winters can be seen on the Internet by Glen Canning and Professor Kris Wells, two politically well-connected people who complain of cyberbullying often. Proof the Edmonton Police Force (EPS), RCMP, FBI and police in the UK have been ignoring the Plaintiff’s complaints about these Trolls can also viewed on the Internet. The Plaintiff fought fire with fire but did so in a legal fashion and kept the police fully informed of his actions. The Plaintiff was successful in causing numerous egregious videos and several blogs to be taken down after doing his best to find out who the “Anonymous” people were and reporting them. He saved all the blogs and videos published about his family before the malice was removed from public view. Three Trolls who continue to attack his family and others are Dean Roger Ray, Barry Winters and one government employee. A member of the legal dept. of Edmonton tried to claim that the Plaintiff was Barry Winters then complained to the EPS about the Plaintiff’s questions about her incompetence. Professor Kris Wells, who was associated with the Police Commission of Edmonton and Glen Canning, who lost his daughter to cyberbullying, said nothing. They were content that the Plaintiff managed to convince Google’s lawyers to remove one of Barry Winters’s blogs on October 23, 2014 and say nothing about his blog within WordPress that the Troll uses to continue his libel of them and their friends. Instead Glen Canning slandered the Plaintiff within Twitter after Kris Wells sent the Plaintiff an email stating his lawyer had advised him to ignore Barry Winters and his blogs. 

76.  The Plaintiff states that since the fall of 2014 he has given up on the notion that any police officer or Glen Canning and Professor Kris Wells would ever act with any semblance of integrity. All their actions appear to be for the purposes of self-promotion and personal gain. Canning and Wells received the same emails that were sent to politicians and law enforcement authorities and only Barry Winters responded to all and disputed the Plaintiff’s words. The EPS in June of 2015 informed the Plaintiff that they intend to prosecute Barry Winters for sending “False Messages” instead of prosecuting for his published malice under Sections 300 and 319 of the Criminal Code. That fact must be true because since June the Plaintiff has not received any emails from Barry Winters and within his blog he has slandered the EPS and often mentions the topic of “False Messages”. In the meantime Canning and Wells ignore the Plaintiff’s common concerns while continuing to profess of their abundant knowledge of bullying to university students and anyone else who will listen to them particularly members of the corporate media. The Plaintiff saves every word of Canning and Wells that they cause to be published on the topic cyberbullying and plans to file them as his exhibits to support a lawsuit to seek relief from the cyberbullying of his Clan.He considers the blogs of Barry Winters and the videos of his associates that remain published on the Internet to be important evidence of cyberbullying that the Crown will be arguing within a provincial court of his choice after the election of the 42nd Parliament. Therefore other than remind the Crown and others that he is recording the work of the Trolls, he has not reported their malice to Google and WordPress anymore because the RCMP should have done so long ago.

77.  The Plaintiff states that in June of 2015 when a member of the EPS called him four times with an anonymous telephone number asking him to stop emailing public officials about Barry Winters’s blog and to file a formal complaint. The Plaintiff was offended by the anonymous talk of “False Messages”. He refused and stated that if the questionable public officials found his emails quoting the blog of Barry Winters upsetting then the EPS and the RCMP should uphold the law and do something about it in order to protect their reputations. 

78.  The Plaintiff states that until the EPS member clearly identified himself with his badge number in the fourth phone call and sent a follow up email to back up his words, the Plaintiff could not know for certain that a Troll or the EPS had been calling him. The Plaintiff has a record of two fraudulent calls to him during the same period of time, one using an RCMP phone number and the other used the phone number of Dana Durnford, a well-known Troll and friend of Byron Prior. The Plaintiff returned the calls. Dana Durnford in a predictable fashion denied knowing him and hung up but the Plaintiff did discuss the malice of Trolls with an ethical member of the RCMP. The RCMP and the FBI know that anyone can access several websites based in the USA and engage their free services to harass people with. The RCMP know that some programs allow cyberbullies to pretend to be anyone by having their telephone numbers (including that of the RCMP or the EPS) appear on their victims’ phone display. The Crown knows commercial programs assist in political deceit. Recently, it sent a former assistant of the MP the Plaintiff ran against Fundy-Royal in 2004 to jail because of robo calls.

79.  The Plaintiff states that he has clearly explained his intentions to sue the EPS and the RCMP many times because they have been ignoring his complaints for eight years. It was obvious to him what the EPS was trying to do with him in June was trick. The RCMP has been trying to pull the same trick on the Plaintiff since 2003. The Crown knows that if the EPS managed to secure a complaint with the Plaintiff’s signature then it would delay his lawsuit because the EPS could claim that his complaint under investigation and that the EPS could say nothing about it until the matter had concluded. The Plaintiff informed the EPS that anyone could use an anonymous phone number and claim to be anyone if it wished to talk then it should do so from an identifiable telephone line or put it in writing just like he does. In fact the Plaintiff’s family have been getting anonymous calls for many years and the police claimed they could do nothing because the malicious calls came through the Internet. The RCMP would have acted ethically if the families of public officials were subject to the harassment his Clan has suffered instead of assisting in the illegal barring from the parliamentary properties of Canada. 

80.  The Plaintiff states that the subject of the Crown and Internet harassment became incredibly worse in 2007 long before the demise of two Canadian teenagers caused new cyber laws to be created and promptly ignored. In 2008 while the Plaintiff’s family and friends were being much harassed within many YouTube Channels by Trolls, the RCMP in NB created a YouTube channel of its own to use as tool to catch a local arsonist. As soon as the Plaintiff made a comment about eleven incidents of arson on his friend’s farm in the same area the Plaintiff and his friend were attacked by many Troll’s within the Crown’s domain within YouTube and the RCMP only laughed at the obvious malice that they were publishing for a year without attempting to moderate the comments. In early 2009 the comments within the RCMP YouTube channel change greatly with the arrest and imprisonment of members of the Tingley family pertaining to charges of “Organized Crime”. The libel continued until Werner Bock printed all the comments within the RCMP YouTube channel and delivered hard copy of it in hand to a local office of the RCMP.  Once the Plaintiff had a conversation with a member of the RCMP in Moncton NB who was investigating Bock’s complaint, the RCMP took down their video with all the comments and said nothing further about it. The Plaintiff did manage to save most of the comments digitally before they were deleted by the Trolls and the RCMP. Years later the Crown stayed the “Organized Crime” charges against the Tingleys and a publication ban was placed on their concerns about malicious prosecution. The matter was put before the Supreme Court of Canada Rodney Tingley, et al. v. Her Majesty the Queen SCC Docketno. 34107 and the Plaintiff had no idea of any outcome. However in late 2014 he did speak with some of the Tingleys and they admitted to knowing about him and his common concerns with the RCMP. One Tingley stated that their lawyers have advised them not to speak to him because of the publication ban. The same holds true with his former friend Werner Bock and Hank Temper another German who moved to NB to farm. They had trouble with the RCMP acting against them. A search on the Internet with their names and the Plaintiff’s easily proves his assistance but they will never acknowledge it as they attack the Crown, Bock byway of social media and Tepper byway of lawsuit.

81.  The Plaintiff states that matters of harassment that the police refuse to investigate would have entered the realm of ridiculous in 2012 if the reasons behind the suicides of teenagers did not become well known by the corporate media. In the summer of 2012 a new member of the FPS who as a former member of the EPS had inspired a lawsuit for beating a client in Edmonton called the Plaintiff and accused him of something he could not do even if he wanted to while he was arguing many lawyers byway of emails about a matter concerning cyber stalking that was before the SCC.  The member of the FPF accused the Plaintiff of calling the boss of Bullying Canada thirty times. At that time his MagicJack account had been hacked and although he could receive incoming calls, the Plaintiff could not call out to anyone. The Plaintiff freely sent the FPF his telephone logs sourced from MagicJack after his account restored without the Crown having to issue a warrant to see his telephone records. He asked the FPF and the RCMP where did the records of his phone calls to and from the FPF and the RCMP go if his account had not been hacked. The police never responded. Years later a Troll sent Dean Roger Ray a message through YouTube providing info about the Plaintiff’s MagicJack account with the correct password. Dean Roger Ray promptly posted two videos in YouTube clearly displaying the blatant violation of privacy likely to protect himself from the crime. The Plaintiff quickly pointed out the videos to the RCMP and they refused to investigate as usual. At about the same point in time the Plaintiff noticed that the CBC had published a record of a access to information requests. On the list of requests he saw his name along with several employees of CBC and the boss of Bullying Canada. The Plaintiff called the CBC to make inquiries about what he saw published on the Internet. CBC told him it was none of his business and advised him if he thought his rights had been offended to file a complaint. It appears the Plaintiff that employees of CBC like other questionable Crown Corporations such as the RCMP rely on their attorneys far too much to defend them from litigation they invite from citizens they purportedly serve. The employees of CBC named within the aforementioned and the CBC Legal Dept. are very familiar with the Plaintiff and of the Crown barring him from legislative properties while he running for public office. 

82.  The Plaintiff states that any politician or police officer should have seen enough of Barry Winter’s WordPress blog by June 22, 2015 particularly after the very unnecessary demise of two men in Alberta because of the incompetence of the EPS. Barry Winters was blogging about the EPS using battering ram in order to execute a warrant for a 250 dollar bylaw offence at the same time Professor Kris Wells revealed in a televised interview that the EPS member who was killed was the one investigating the cyber harassment of him. It was obvious why the police and politicians ignored all the death threats, sexual harassment, cyberbullying and hate speech of a proud Zionist who claimed to be a former CF officer who now working for the Department of National Defence (DND). It is well known that no politician in Canada is allowed to sit in Parliament as a member of the major parties unless they support Israel. Since 2002 the Plaintiff made it well known that he does not support Israeli actions and was against the American plan to make war on Iraq. On Aril 1, 2003 within two weeks of the beginning of the War on Iraq, the US Secret Service threatened to practice extraordinary rendition because false allegations of a Presidential threat were made against him by an American court. However, the Americans and the Crown cannot deny that what he said in two courts on April 1, 2003 because he published the recordings of what was truly said as soon as he got the court tapes. The RCMP knows those words can still be heard on the Internet today. In 2009, the Plaintiff began to complain of Barry Winters about something far more important to Canada as nation because of Winters’ bragging of being one of 24 CF officers who assisted the Americans in the planning the War on Iraq in 2002. In the Plaintiff’s humble opinion the mandate of the DND is Defence not Attack. He is not so naive to think that such plans of war do not occur but if Barry Winters was in fact one of the CF officers who did so then he broke his oath to the Crown the instant he bragged of it in his blog. If Winters was never an officer in the CF then he broke the law by impersonating an officer. The Plaintiff downloaded the emails of the Privy Council about Wikileaks. The bragging of Barry Winters should have been investigated in 2009 before CBC reported that documents released by WikiLeaks supported his information about Canadian involvement in the War on Iraq.

83.  The Plaintiff states that now that Canada is involved in more war in Iraq again itdid notserve Canadian interests and reputation to allow Barry Winters to publish the following words three times over five years after he began his bragging:

Little David Amos’ “True History Of War” Canadian Airstrikes And
Stupid Justin Trudeau

Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide
behind Amerka’s and NATO’s skirts.

When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign in Iraq, the Coalition of the Willing. This was against or contrary to the wisdom or advice of those of us Canadian officers that were involved in the initial planning phases of that operation. There were significant concern in our planning cell, and NDHQ about of the dearth of concern for operational guidance, direction, and forces for operations after the initial occupation of Iraq. At the “last minute” Prime Minister Chretien and the Liberal government changed its mind. The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not deploy combat troops for the Iraq campaign, but would deploy a Canadian Battle Group to Afghanistan, enabling our amerkan cousins to redeploy troops from there to Iraq. The PMO’s thinking that it was less costly to deploy Canadian Forces to Afghanistan than Iraq. But alas no one seems to remind the Liberals of Prime Minister Chretien’s then grossly incorrect assumption. Notwithstanding Jean Chretien’s incompetence and stupidity, the Canadian Army was heroic, professional, punched well above it’s weight, and the PPCLI Battle Group, is credited with “saving Afghanistan” during the Panjway campaign of 2006.

What Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don’t tell you now, is that then Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chretien committed, and deployed the Canadian army to Canada’s longest “war” without the advice, consent, support, or vote of the Canadian Parliament.

What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling chattering classes are too addled to understand is the deployment of less than 75 special operations troops, and what is known by planners as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a deployment of a Battle Group, nor a “war” make. 

The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have the “constitutional authority” to commit the Canadian nation to war. That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by constitutional scholar Phillippe Legasse. What Parliament can do is remove “confidence” in The Crown’s Government in a “vote of non-confidence.” That could not happen to the Chretien Government regarding deployment to Afghanistan, and it won’t happen in this instance with the conservative majority in The Commons regarding a limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.

President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror attacks in New York; that the Taliban “occupied” and “failed state” Afghanistan was the source of logistical support, command and control, and training for the Al Quaeda war of terror against the world. The initial defeat, and removal from control of Afghanistan was vital and essential for the security and tranquility of the developed world. An ISIS “caliphate,” in the Middle East, no matter how small, is a clear and present danger to the entire world. This “occupied state,” or“failed state” will prosecute an unending Islamic inspired war of terror against not only the “western world,” but Arab states “moderate” or not, as well. The security, safety, and tranquility of Canada and Canadians are just at risk now with the emergence of an ISIS“caliphate” no matter how large or small, as it was with the Taliban and Al Quaeda “marriage” in Afghanistan.

One of the everlasting “legacies” of the “Trudeau the Elder’s dynasty was Canada and successive Liberal governments cowering behind the amerkan’s nuclear and conventional military shield, at the same time denigrating, insulting them, opposing them, and at the same time self-aggrandizing ourselves as “peace keepers,” and progenitors of “world peace.” Canada failed. The United States of Amerka, NATO, the G7 and or G20 will no longer permit that sort of sanctimonious behavior from Canada or its government any longer. And Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Foreign Minister John Baird , and Cabinet are fully cognizant of that reality. Even if some editorial boards, and pundits are not.

Justin, Trudeau “the younger” is reprising the time “honoured” liberal mantra, and tradition of expecting the amerkans or the rest of the world to do “the heavy lifting.” Justin Trudeau and his “butt buddy” David Amos are telling Canadians that we can guarantee our security and safety by expecting other nations to fight for us. That Canada can and should attempt to guarantee Canadians safety by providing “humanitarian aid” somewhere, and call a sitting US president a “war criminal.” This morning Australia announced they too, were sending tactical aircraft to eliminate the menace of an ISIS “caliphate.”

In one sense Prime Minister Harper is every bit the scoundrel Trudeau “the elder” and Jean ‘the crook” Chretien was. Just As Trudeau, and successive Liberal governments delighted in diminishing, marginalizing, under funding Canadian Forces, and sending Canadian military men and women to die with inadequate kit and modern equipment; so too is Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Canada’s F-18s are antiquated, poorly equipped, and ought to have been replaced five years ago. But alas, there won’t be single RCAF fighter jock that won’t go, or won’t want to go, to make Canada safe or safer.

My Grandfather served this country. My father served this country. My Uncle served this country. And I have served this country. Justin Trudeau has not served Canada in any way. Thomas Mulcair has not served this country in any way. Liberals and so called social democrats haven’t served this country in any way. David Amos, and other drooling fools have not served this great nation in any way. Yet these fools are more than prepared to ensure their, our safety to other nations, and then criticize them for doing so.

Canada must again, now, “do our bit” to guarantee our own security, and tranquility, but also that of the world. Canada has never before shirked its responsibility to its citizens and that of the world.

Prime Minister Harper will not permit this country to do so now

I talked to Don Newman earlier this week before the beancounters David Dodge and Don Drummond now of Queen's gave their spin about Canada's Health Care system yesterday and Sheila Fraser yapped on and on on  CAPAC during her last days in office as if she were oh so ethical.. To be fair to him I just called Greg Weston (613-288-6938) I suggested that he should at least Google SOUCOM and David Amos It would be wise if he check ALL of CBC's sources before he publishes something else about the DND EH Don Newman? Lets just say that the fact  that  your old CBC buddy, Tony Burman is now in charge of Al Jazeera English never impressed me. The fact that he set up a Canadian office is interesting though

"But Lang, defence minister McCallum's chief of staff, says military
brass were not entirely forthcoming on the issue. For instance, he
says, even McCallum initially didn't know those soldiers were helping
to plan the invasion of Iraq up to the highest levels of command,
including a Canadian general.
 
That general is Walt Natynczyk, now Canada's chief of defence staff,
who eight months after the invasion became deputy commander of 35,000 U.S. soldiers and other allied forces in Iraq. Lang says Natynczyk was also part of the team of mainly senior U.S. military brass that helped prepare for the invasion from a mobile command in Kuwait."

"I remember years ago when the debate was on in Canada, about there being weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Our American 'friends" demanded that Canada join into "the Coalition of the Willing. American "veterans" and sportscasters loudly denounced Canada for NOT buying into the US policy.

At the time I was serving as a planner at NDHQ and with 24 other of my colleagues we went to Tampa SOUCOM HQ to be involved in the planning in the planning stages of the op....and to report to NDHQ, that would report to the PMO upon the merits of the proposed operation. There was never at anytime an existing target list of verified sites where there were deployed WMD.
 
Coalition assets were more than sufficient for the initial strike and invasion phase but even at that point in the planning, we were concerned about the number of "boots on the ground" for the occupation (and end game) stage of an operation in Iraq. We were also concerned about the American plans for occupation plans of Iraq because they at that stage included no contingency for a handing over of civil authority to a vetted Iraqi government and bureaucracy.

There was no detailed plan for Iraq being "liberated" and returned to its people...nor a thought to an eventual exit plan. This was contrary to the lessons of Vietnam but also to current military thought, that folks like Colin Powell and "Stuffy" Leighton and others elucidated upon. "What's the mission" how long is the mission, what conditions are to met before US troop can redeploy?  Prime Minister Jean Chretien and the PMO were even at the very preliminary planning stages wary of Canadian involvement in an Iraq operation....History would prove them correct. The political pressure being applied on the PMO from the George W Bush administration was onerous
 
American military assets were extremely overstretched, and Canadian military assets even more so It was proposed by the PMO that Canadian naval platforms would deploy to assist in naval quarantine operations in the Gulf and that Canadian army assets would deploy in Afghanistan thus permitting US army assets to redeploy for an Iraqi operation....The PMO thought that "compromise would save Canadian lives and liberal political capital.. and the priority of which  ....not necessarily in that order. "

You can bet that I called these sneaky Yankees again today EH John
Adams? of the CSE within the DND?



84.  The Plaintiff states that the RCMP is well aware that he went to western Canada in 2104 at the invitation of a fellow Maritimer in order to assist in his attempt to investigate the murders of many people in Northern BC. The Plaintiff has good reasons to doubt his fellow Maritimer’s motives. The fact that he did not tell the Plaintiff until he had arrived in BC that he had invited a Neo Nazi he knew the Plaintiff strongly disliked to the same protest that he was staging in front of the court house in Prince George on August 21, 2014. The Plaintiff was looking forward to meeting Lonnie Landrud so he ignored the Neo Nazi. Several months after their one and only meeting, Lonnie Landrud contacted the Plaintiff and asked him to publish a statement of his on the Internet and to forward it to anyone he wished. The Plaintiff obliged Landrud and did an investigation of his own as well. He has informed the RCMP of his opinion of their actions and has done nothing further except monitor the criminal proceedings the Crown has placed against the Neo Nazi in BC and save his videos and webpages and that of his associates. The words the Plaintiff stated in public in Prince George BC on August 21, 2014 were recorded by the Neo Nazi and published on the Internet and the RCMP knows the Plaintiff stands by every word. For the public record the Plaintiff truly believes what Lonnie Landrud told him despite the fact that he does not trust his Neo Nazi associates. Therefore the Plaintiff had no ethical dilemma whatsoever in publishing the statement Lonnie Landrud mailed to him in a sincere effort to assist Lonnie Landrud’s pursuit of justice. The Crown is well aware that Plaintiff’s former lawyer, Barry Bachrach once had a leader of the American Indian Movement for a client and that is why he ran against the former Minister of Indian Affairs for his seat in the 39th Parliament.

85.  The Plaintiff states that while he was out west he visited Edmonton AB several times and met many people. He visited the home of Barry Winters and all his favourite haunts in the hope of meeting in person the evil person who had been sexually harassing and threatening to kill him and his children for many years. The Crown cannot deny that Winters invited him many times. On June 13, 2015 Barry Winters admitted the EPS warned him the Plaintiff was looking for him. 

86.  The Plaintiff states that on December 15th, 2014 the Crown in Alberta contacted him byway of an email account he seldom uses since his last communications with the Sergeant-at-Arms and Robin Reid. The Sergeant-at-Arms wanted to know about a contact he had that day with the constituency office of a recently appointed Cabinet Minister. All the other statements in this complaint should prove that the Plaintiff knew why a political lawyer from NB was ignoring a new constituent’s contacts all summer after answering a message in Twitter promising to meet with him. It was obvious to the Plaintiff that as soon as the lawyer was a Cabinet Minister he was attempting to use his influence to intimidate the Plaintiff byway of the Sergeant-at-Arms like his political associates in NB did in 2004.

87.  The Plaintiff states that before he had a chance to respond to the email from the Sergeant-at-Arms of Alberta, three members of the RCMP members in plain clothes were pounding on the basement entrance of a condo at 1:30 AM. They did not identify themselves as being the police as they attempted to harass the Plaintiff on private property in the middle of the night without a warrant. The Plaintiff was twice the age of the oldest one and considered them to be tough talking kids who were trying to enter a home in the middle of the night so as he closed the door he told them he was calling the cops. They hollered on the other side of the door that they were the cops as the Plaintiff called their headquarters and was immediately patched through to them. The Plaintiff refused their request when RCMP tried to con him into coming outside in freezing temperatures in the middle of the night so they could supposedly speak with him instead of saying what they needed to say over the telephone. If what the RCMP was saying was remotely true then they should have identified themselves and asked for him instead of someone else when he answered the door. The Plaintiff’s response to the RCMP’s trickery was that it was best that they communicate in writing and that he would be contacting their lawyers in the morning. The Crown received its very justifiable responses and the law was not upheld. The Plaintiff was ignored as the RCMP continued to harass his family deep into the New Year as he headed for the BC coast then back to the Maritimes to run for public office again. 

88.  The Plaintiff states that in regards to this complaint the actions and inactions of the Sergeant-at-Arms and the RCMP in Alberta affirmed to the Plaintiff that he is still barred under threat of arrest from all parliamentary properties in Canada because they did not deny it. The RCMP does not have the integrity to talk to or email him about anything because they know he tries to record everything just like they do. Instead of acting ethically the standard operating procedure of the RCMP since 2004 is to intimidate his friends and family in a malicious effort to impeach his character and separate them. That is the reason the Plaintiff stays away from most people most of the time. The actions of the RCMP towards the Plaintiff and many others and his experiences in the USA served to convince him that the Crown acts just like corrupt Americans. In order to cover up wrongs it would prefer to injure and imprison ethical citizens in mental wards rather than uphold the law or argue them publicly in a court of law. In 2002 the Plaintiff explained why he would seek public office in Canada to American lawyers he was suing within statements of a lawsuit about legal malpractice. Now he is doing the same to Canadian lawyers in the employ of the government whose wages are once again being paid by his fellow taxpayer. As the Plaintiff prepares to deal with a predicable motion to dismiss and a motion for a publication ban to delay and conceal this matter before polling day perhaps the lawyers working for the Crown should study the Plaintiff’s work found within documents in the Governor General’s office. Trust that he will look forward to talking to the first lawyer to answer this complaint because it has been years since he could get any lawyer in Canada to discuss anything with him. There is no ethical dilemma to be found in this statement, the Crown counsels should just do their job according to the law of the land, seek the documents in the possession of the lawyer who is the Governor General of Canada and let the political cards fall where they may. In closing the Plaintiff must remind the Crown that two members of the Canadian Forces acting as security for the Highland Games held on the grounds of the Lieutenant Governor’s residence in NB approached the Chief of the Amos Clan claiming that an unnamed party found him “overbearing”. He gave them a copy of the Governors General’s letter and freely left the parliamentary property.

Dr. Kristopher Wells

MacEwan University congratulates Dr. Kristopher Wells , associate professor in the Bachelor of Child and Youth Care program , on being named a Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Sexual and Gender Minority Youth Issues. The CRC program was established by the Government of Canada to attract and retain world-class researchers and to reinforce academic research and training excellence in Canadian post-secondary institutions.

This is MacEwan’s first-ever Canada Research Chair, and the university looks forward to the incredible work that Kris will continue to do given the funding and support provided by the prestigious position.

“The awarding of our first Canada Research Chair marks the further maturation of MacEwan as an undergraduate university,” says Dr. Craig Monk, provost and vice-president, Academic. “We are proud that Dr. Kristopher Wells has been recognized as an emerging scholar of exceptional achievement and further promise, and his influence is felt throughout Alberta and beyond.”

Kris’s Tier II Canada Research Chair (which grants $500,000 in total over the next five years) will focus on three key areas in support of the public understanding of sexual and gender minority youth by investigating and supporting inclusive and responsive policies, developing equitable and evidence-informed practices, and encouraging the full and equitable participation of LGBTQ2S+ youth in all aspects of our society.

Kris says that he hopes to develop new courses, create research opportunities for undergraduate students and postdoctoral fellows, and develop new and innovative resources and tools to help increase the public understanding of sexual and gender minority youth in Canada.

“I also hope that this Canada Research Chair will serve as a springboard for MacEwan to grow and support the development of other faculty members and CRCs to address some of the most pressing research questions and challenges currently facing our society,” he says. “We in the academy are in a unique position to use research to help ensure that evidence comes to bear on important policy developments and to help shape and inform public discourse. I strongly believe that research can be used as a catalytic force to both serve and benefit the public good.”

Kris says there is much to learn from youth when we listen, support and nurture them to become leaders in their schools, families and communities. “By using research to inform policies, practices and participation, especially in the domains of education, health and sport, sexual and gender minority youth will be afforded the opportunity to do more than simply try to survive in hostile and uninviting environments — they can be supported to thrive and live up to their full and amazing potential.”

PC dissidents submit letters to trigger review of Higgs leadership

Letters from 26 riding presidents are first step in bid to remove premier

They said in a statement that they're taking the "drastic and rarely used step" because of Higgs's approach to governing as premier.

Party president Erika Hachey confirmed in an email that staff at the party office received the letters Thursday morning.

"The premier would have you believe this is solely about one policy," the dissident group says in a statement, referring to the controversy over Policy 713. "Not true.

"This is about a pattern of autocratic leadership over the past three years that has resulted in serious missteps and the undermining of New Brunswickers' confidence in the Progressive Conservative government."

It takes letters from 50 party members, including the presidents of 20 riding association presidents, to force the provincial council of the party to hold a vote on a review.

The statement says letters from 26 riding presidents and the "necessary documents" from other party members were submitted.

It's signed by Marc Savoie, the president of the riding association in Moncton East.

That is the riding now represented by MLA Daniel Allain, one of two ministers Higgs dropped from his cabinet in a shuffle Tuesday.

He and Jeff Carr were among the ministers who voted with opposition MLAs to pass a motion on June 15 calling for more consultations on Policy 713, which sets out protections for LGBTQ students in provincial schools.

Two other ministers who voted with the opposition, Dorothy Shephard and Trevor Holder, resigned ahead of the shuffle, citing Higgs's top-down leadership style.

The provincial council must vote at its next meeting by a two-thirds majority on holding a convention where members would vote on whether to remove Higgs.

"This will be a divisive and bruising process for our party. We still hold out hope the premier will avoid this and step down," Savoie's letter says.

It criticizes Higgs for not holding a policy convention with grassroots PCs since becoming leader in 2016.

It also cites what it calls a "stunningly ill-advised attempt" to replace French immersion, a cancelled 2020 plan for nighttime closures of emergency departments in six small hospitals, the elimination of elected spots on regional health authority boards and the neutering of decision-making powers of anglophone district education councils. 

The letter also slams Higgs for what it calls "condescension and neglect" toward francophone and Indigenous communities, which it says has led to "barely breathing" PC organizations in northern New Brunswick and a "needless" court battle with the Wolostoqey nation.

Questions premier's sincerity

Savoie said in an interview he believes those who want Higgs gone will have two-thirds support on the provincial council to hold a convention.

After Tuesday's cabinet shuffle, Higgs said he would try to mend fences with unhappy party members in the coming weeks.

"I think we have some building to do, there's no question of that. I need to play a key role in that, reaching out to the membership, the executives throughout the province, and be able to sit down and have some very good discussions." 

Savoie said in an interview he questions if that's sincere.

"He hasn't in the last six years. He hasn't done that at all. So we seriously doubt that he would start now." 

In a statement Thursday, Higgs repeated his previous assertion that the review push is tied to Policy 713.

He pointed out the process is "long and detailed" and said while it unfolds he'll focus on governing in the best interests of all New Brunswickers.

Dissenting minister who survived New Brunswick cabinet firings puzzles scholar

Daniel Allain and Jeff Carr were fired for publicly opposing government policy but not Arlene Dunn

"The convention of cabinet solidarity was broken by all three," said Emmett Macfarlane, a political scientist at the University of Waterloo.

"Arguably the premier has misunderstood the convention."

On Tuesday, Higgs shuffled his cabinet and removed former local government minister Daniel Allain and former transportation minister Jeff Carr.

Two weeks earlier the pair, along with then social development minister Dorothy Shephard and then post secondary education minister Trevor Holder and two additional backbench government MLA, voted for an opposition motion to further study government changes to Policy 713, which covers the treatment of LGBTQ students in public schools.

Shephard submitted her resignation from cabinet on June 15 following the vote, as did Holder days later.

A fifth government minister, Arlene Dunn, was not in the legislature for the vote but publicly announced the following day she, too, would have sided against the government had she been there. 

On Tuesday, while Allain and Carr were fired, Dunn retained her job and was given additional responsibilities.

Higgs explained that although Dunn had publicly opposed the government's plan in interviews and public statements, that wasn't the same violation of cabinet solidarity committed by those ministers who voted against it.

"When you have cabinet ministers who take a position against the government in the legislature, it's very significant," said Higgs.

"If you look at the parliamentary system we operate under, cabinet support is paramount."

But Macfarlane said that is not a full understanding of the principles and traditions involved.

"The convention does not apply to voting. It applies to any public disagreement with the government," said Macfarlane.

He explained that in a parliamentary system the premier and cabinet ministers are "collectively" responsible for government policies and decisions and are required to defend all of them, even those they might disagree with privately, or resign.

Dunn, he argues, was in the same position opposing the government's changes to the 713 policy outside the legislature as Carr and Allain were voting against it inside the Legislature. 

"You have a real problem when a cabinet minister even just articulates dissent," said Macfarlane.

"Under our traditional view of the convention of cabinet solidarity the minister should have actually resigned."

No 'hard' rules

Greg Flynn, chair of the department of political science at McMaster University in Hamilton, said Higgs can do as he pleases because parliamentary traditions are not "hard and fast rules" and can be applied or not at the premier's discretion.

However, he said it is difficult to argue any parliamentary tradition would suggest treating Dunn differently than Allain and Carr.

"Generally speaking, any deviation or expression of disapproval from a government's position/policy should trigger either a resignation by the Minister or dismissal from Cabinet," wrote Flynn in an email about the issue.

Yan Campagnolo, a law professor at the University of Ottawa, does see some room for Higgs to treat Dunn's opposition to the government policy differently than the other ministers, but said all three were on thin ice.

"In a system of cabinet government, a minister who cannot publicly support a significant government policy would normally be expected to resign," said Campagnolo.

A man wearing a suit jacket standing outside with his arms crossed University of Ottawa law professor Yan Campagnolo says ministers who cannot support a government policy normally resign on principle. (University of Ottawa)

In his view, a minister voting against the government in the legislature is "the ultimate form of dissent" that no premier would tolerate, but he said it's not clear to him if Dunn's absence from the vote was a scheduling problem or a deliberate decision not to embarrass Higgs.

"Arlene Dunn's case is not as clear cut," he said.

Higgs had publicly announced prior to the vote in the legislature that he would not be requiring government MLAs to support any particular position and on Wednesday Carr said that signaled to ministers they were free to vote their conscience.

"It's not a whipped vote and nobody asked us how we were going to vote," Carr told CBC News.

But Macfarlane said that's not how cabinet solidarity works, either.

He said free votes for cabinet ministers are rare and always explicit, and he said every minister who feels it important to be publicly critical of a government policy or to vote against it, normally would resign their cabinet position on their own beforehand.

"We would always, except for very rare exceptions in Canadian history, expect cabinet members to vote with the government. That is in fact the convention of cabinet solidarity,"  said Macfarlane.

Maybe Dunn isn't male enough for Higgs to feel threatened when she stands up to him.

Then why were his statements about what was in the changes at odds with the actual text? Why wouldn't he at least read the changes before speaking to the press?

There's also the fact he was elected a couple of weeks after the start of the first school year the policy was in effect, so he may never have dealt with it while in the school system.

Former Higgs cabinet ministers level tough questions at government

Three former cabinet ministers take aggressive approach at public accounts committee


Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Feb 18, 2021 5:00 AM AT


Public accounts committee meetings have included tough questions for government from three former Higgs cabinet ministers. (Karissa Donkin/CBC)

They're not exactly rebels, but a trio of backbench Progressive Conservative MLAs have been flexing their independence at the legislature's Public Accounts committee and turning its livestream into must-see political TV.

Last week the three Tories, all former ministers dumped from the PC cabinet last fall, put the spotlight on school construction decisions, slow ambulance response times and unspent climate funds.

All three exchanges were compelling, and all three topics are potentially uncomfortable or awkward for the PC government.

"The goal is not to be quiet and go and hide when you're in government," says one of the MLAs, Jake Stewart, who represents Southwest Miramichi-Bay du Vin. "The goal is to work on behalf of constituents."

Stewart asked Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson about her recent conclusion that the Ambulance New Brunswick contract favours urban areas because missed response targets in rural areas get less weight in the calculations.

Stewart's hometown of Blackville was one of the affected communities and he said during the meeting he wants the contract changed.

"That issue is extremely important where I live," Stewart told CBC News. "I don't think it would be possible for me to be there on that committee and not ask those questions."

New Maryland-Sunbury MLA Jeff Carr kicked off the pot-stirring last week when he endorsed Adair-MacPherson's finding that the construction of a new school in the riding of Education Minister Dominic Cardy was not based on evidence.

"I think we have to pay attention to what you offer us and try to make the changes for everybody involved," Carr told her. 

He added that an upgrade to Oromocto High School, which serves his riding, was "pushed way over to the side" when the Hanwell school was able to "jump the queue."

Stewart followed up later the same day with his comments on Ambulance New Brunswick.

"Ambulance coverage is human life. It's life and death," he told Adair-MacPherson.

"The need for a new contract is evident, because we can't allow rural areas of the province to suffer. … That's not acceptable to any taxpayer or any citizen of New Brunswick." 

The next day, Fundy-The Isles-Saint John West MLA Andrea Anderson-Mason used courtroom-style cross-examination questioning to reveal that almost $4 million in carbon tax revenue wasn't spent on climate change projects as required in 2018-19. 

"There's always a risk in terms of not spending the full budget," deputy environment minister Cade Libby acknowledged after a series of rapid-fire questions from the former attorney general.

The three episodes caught the attention of the opposition Liberals.

"Normally that doesn't happen," said Victoria-La Vallée MLA Chuck Chiasson, a veteran of the public accounts committee."Quite honestly, it took me off guard.

"I actually texted one of the other [Liberal] people on the committee … and I said 'Are you giving them these questions?' I thought, 'Gee, those are the questions we need to be asking."

Carr and Anderson-Mason did not respond to interview requests.

Stewart's approach 'nothing new'

Stewart says he wasn't looking for an "aha moment" and his approach was nothing new.

"I think I've always been fairly independent," he says. "I've been accused of it, or guilty of it, for a number of years."

He said backbench MLAs like him can "scream at the top of your lungs," or they can use the committee system to work "in a professional and precise way" raising issues important to their constituencies.

"Public accounts does provide a significant forum to drill down on the issues that really matter," he says. 

All three MLAs were cabinet ministers in Premier Blaine Higgs's minority government. But when the PCs won a majority last September, Higgs shuffled them out in favour of newcomers. 

Stewart was Aboriginal affairs minister before the shuffle and supported calls for an inquiry into systemic racism, putting him at odds with Higgs.

After her demotion, Anderson-Mason complained about the slow pace of government action on broadband internet in her riding, which Higgs labelled "sour grapes."


Jamie Gillies, political scientist at St. Thomas University, says MLAs outside cabinet are a little freer to work for their constituents. (CBC)

Chiasson said last week's questions may reflect "a little bit of frustration, a little bit of division" within the PC caucus, but political scientist Jamie Gillies of St. Thomas University says not to read too much into it.

"I don't think I would describe it as even dissent in the caucus or a revolt, but I think what we're seeing is maybe a little bit of an evolution since the election," he says.

"They're feeling a little more comfortable to say, 'You know, we're not down a couple of seats here. We've got a majority and I don't like how this is being treated within caucus,' or 'I agree with the auditor general on this.'"

The Health Department says it continues to discuss a new ambulance contract with Medavie Health Services New Brunswick, which operates the service.

""""PAC is supposed to be non-political or non-partisan, but I've never seen it function that way, so yeah, they can bring on more.- Chuck Chiasson, Liberal MLA

"These discussions are ongoing and no decisions have been made," said spokesperson Bruce Macfarlane.

Education officials also appeared at the committee last week and explained the school ranking formula needed changes to account for rapid population growth in Fredericton and Moncton. That led to the approval of the Hanwell school, they said.

Libby told Anderson-Mason that while the provincial carbon tax deposited $37.4 million in the climate fund in 2018-19 for projects, the government only spent $33.7 million of it. 

It was the first public acknowledgement that $3.7 million wasn't spent the way it was supposed to be spent. Libby said the department hoped the money would be rolled over to be used in 2019-20, but it turned out that would violate federal climate plan requirements.

"The government has committed to spending this particular budget on climate change initiatives," he said.

Non-partisan intent

Gillies says PC MLAs acting more independently "could become a problem if it gets a little bit out of control," but it's normal members no longer in cabinet will become more vocal advocates for their ridings. 

School upgrades and construction are "a good thing to raise if you're looking to get re-elected and you want to voice the concerns of your constituents," he says.

With a minority government, "there's always the pressing issue of whether we can keep the government going," but now that the PCs have a majority, "they can be a little more aggressive in advocating for things."

Chiasson says he hopes for more tough questioning from the three PC MLAs.

"It's always good to see. PAC is supposed to be non-political or non-partisan, but I've never seen it function that way, so yeah, they can bring on more."

>>> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
>>> in its entirety.
>>>
>>> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
>>> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
>>> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
>>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
>>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal).  In that letter
>>> he stated:
>>>
>>> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
>>> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
>>> You are your brother’s keeper.
>>>
>>> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
>>> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
>>> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
>>> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
>>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
>>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
>>> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
>>> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
>>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
>>> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
>>> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
>>> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
>>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
>>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>>> Police.
>>>
>>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
>>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
>>> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
>>> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
>>> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
>>> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
>>> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.

Mr. AMOS,

I am emailing you, as you keep hanging up the telephone on me.

I request that you fill out a statement documenting the nature of the
emails that Mr. WINTERS sent to you and how those emails made you
feel. You can either write a statement (which you can obtain from your
local Police station and scan it and email it to me or you could write
a statement in email form. Your cooperation will be very much
appreciated and will help the Crown in obtaining a conviction against
WINTERS.

As stated in my conversation with you over the telephone, Barry
Winters was charged with conveying false messages to you. I have
imposed an undertaking condition that he have no contact, direct, or
indirect with you.

Should Mr. WINTERS contact you, please advise me and I will
investigate with a view to arrest him and charge him with breach of an
undertaking.

I also ask that you contact me directly instead of the City hall here
in Edmonton, as those messages are quite vulgar and upset the staff at
the City that have to read them. I assure you that all messages to me
will be investigated and if appropriate charges will be laid.  I ask
that you also avoid contacting Mr. WINTERS, as this may antagonize him
and make matters worse.

Should you have any questions or concerns please contact me.

Respectfully,


Reg#2515 Cst. LYNCH
Edmonton Police Service
Northeast Division / Patrol
780-293-5213

Edmonton blogger charged with promoting hate dies

A man charged with promoting hatred against public figures, women and numerous marginalized groups on his blogs has died. 

Barry Winters, 62, was charged with wilful promotion of hatred in June. He died July 4 after suffering a stroke, a complainant in the case said. 

Hate crimes investigators said Winters’ websites used “strong, hate-based rhetoric” that targeted a number of communities on his blogs, the Baconfat Papers and the Baconfat Chronicles. Police alleged Winters also made violent threats against specific individuals in posts on the sites.

The charge is a rarely used section of the Criminal Code, but police said Winters was an “extreme” case. 

Sgt. Gary Willits with the Edmonton Police Service hate crimes unit said “nobody was safe from (Winters’) comments or hatred” at a news conference about the charge June 14. Police officials said the investigation took more than a year. 

The Justice and Solicitor General Ministry confirmed Winters died and that the charges will be stayed prior to Aug. 4, his next scheduled court appearance.

Kristopher Wells, an LGBTQ advocate and University of Alberta professor who was a complainant in the case, said police told him Winters had died. 

Kristopher Wells is an assistant professor in the faculty of education and director with the Institute for Sexual Minority Studies and Services, University of Alberta. Wells was a complainant in the Winters case.

“I think it’s tragic when anyone passes away, and I think it’s very unfortunate this person died with so much hate in their heart,” he said.

Wells said he was specifically threatened in Winters’ writing and made the complaint to police because he feared for his safety. 

“I’m thankful the police service brought forward the charges, I think it sends an important message to those who want to hide behind keyboards to promulgate hate in our society that they’re going to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”

He said he had mixed feelings that the case won’t go to trial. 

“You want due process to unfold and hear this person’s motivations,” he said. “And it’s also an opportunity to talk about the impact that this kind of hate has on not only myself, but the reverberations through an entire vulnerable community.”

Paula Simons: He may be Canada's 'ultimate troll,' but should Edmonton blogger be charged for spreading hate?

The blogger was charged over posts that attack feminists. Indigenous people. Muslims. Black people. Rape victims. People from the Maritimes. Pre-schoolers

Photo by Ed Kaiser /00053771A

Police charged Edmonton blogger Barry Kent Winters, 62, with wilfully promoting hatred against an identifiable group June 1.

That’s an extremely rare charge under the Criminal Code. The Edmonton Police Service can’t recall any other time when they’ve charged someone under its provisions. There’ve been just three charges under that section in Alberta in the last six years.

Winters’ appalling blogs, the Baconfat Chronicles and the Baconfat News, have been a cancer in Edmonton for years. They contain horrible references to indigenous people, using the most scurrilous racist terms, calling them animals and subhuman. They contain equally terrible terms about gays, lesbians and transgender people. They attacked feminists. Muslims. Fat people. Chinese people. Black people. Rape victims. The homeless. People with developmental disabilities. People from the Maritimes. Catholics. The United Church. Cyclists. Pre-schoolers.

The blogs are a spray of hate diarrhea, spewed in the most vile vocabulary.

The blogs also contain rants about public figures, including Edmonton actor and anti-racism activist Jesse Lipscombe, First Nations writer and politician Wab Kinew, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier Rachel Notley. They attack local gay academic Kris Wells, and local trans activist Marni Panas. The blogs repeatedly threatened to post nude pictures of young Halifax sexual assault victim Rehteah Parsons, who had committed suicide following her assault. They also accused her father, Glen Canning, of molesting her.

“He’s just mean and cruel,” says Canning. “It’s very sick stuff. He called for Elizabeth May and me to be tied to stakes and bayoneted, while he watched. He’s the ultimate troll in Canada right now. He’s just a disgusting bigot.”

In most cases, the blogs didn’t threaten people directly. Instead, they contained fantasies about the different ways they might die.

One post described how wonderful it would be to watch a gorilla rape and kill a prominent female Alberta politician. Another post fantasized about watching feminist journalists, lawyers and academics forced at gun point into a gas chamber.

In another era, the blogs’ author would be a bitter crank yelling at strangers in the food court. Instead, police say, the blogs had thousands of readers, with a growing audience. And so after years of complaints, and a 13-month investigation, police finally laid the rare hate charge, with the written consent of Alberta’s deputy attorney general, Philip Bryden.

I’m grateful to see Edmonton police taking the case seriously. It’s sickening to think the blogs found an eager online readership. Already, the courts have forced Winters to take them down, as a condition of his pre-trial release.

Yet is this the way to deal with speech — even awful speech — in a free and democratic society? Quite apart from the possible impact on the Charter free speech rights we all enjoy, we run a risk in taking a relatively anonymous loser and giving him national notoriety.

Maybe you cause more harm than you fix, when you bring down the heavy arm of the state on crazy people

When Jim Keegstra, the anti-Semitic Eckville teacher was charged with promoting hatred in 1984, he wasn’t silenced. Instead, 12 years of appeals and retrials gave him a platform to posture as a free-speech martyr. Even after his conviction was upheld by the Supreme Court in 1996, his sentence was a mere 200 hours of community service. Meantime, he used his infamy to become leader of the federal Social Credit party.

“It doesn’t make a free society look very good when we criminalize speech we find offensive,” says Eric Adams, who teaches constitutional law at the University of Alberta. “Maybe you cause more harm than you fix, when you bring down the heavy arm of the state on crazy people.

“Ultimately, I think it is a reasonable limit to have some criminal sanctions on some forms of speech. But then you have to set a very high bar to charge someone.”

It probably does symbolic good for our community to signal our collective denunciation of the loathsome blogs. They don’t just express views; they encouraged violence. They don’t make explicit threats, but they incite specific hatred. And I applaud the brave Edmontonians who stood up to the bullying and complained to police.

But arresting a crackpot blogger makes me nervous, and not just because it erodes freedom of speech for us all. Hate is a hydra. Cut off one head, and two or three more grow in its place. I worry less about Barry Winters, and more about what darkness marches in his wake.

 

 

Edmonton police charge blogger with hate crime against prof

'It made me concerned for my own safety,' said Kris Wells, one of the LGBTQ advocates allegedly targeted

Edmonton police have charged a local blogger with a hate crime for allegedly targeting some local well-known LGBTQ advocates in a series of online posts, CBC News has learned.

Court records show police have charged Barry Winters, 62, with wilful promotion of hatred in ongoing posts for his blog The Baconfat Papers over a two-year period ending Dec. 31, 2016.

The charge is the result of a lengthy investigation after Kris Wells, professor and director of the Institute for Sexual Minority Studies and Services at the University of Alberta, and at least one other LGBTQ advocate, complained more than a year ago.

As an advocate for human rights, Wells said he is regularly harassed by phone and online.

"But this particular kind of message really did cross the line and targeted me personally," he said in an interview. "It made me concerned for my own safety."

Over the past year there have been several high-profile investigations by the Edmonton Police Service's hate crimes detail but the threshold is high to lay a hate-related charge.

But Marni Panas, another well-known activist, said when she first stumbled upon the blog in May 2016 she feared for her personal safety and decided to report it.

"I was quite concerned because this person was from Edmonton, and if you read it you will see this person has a clear level of hate towards gay people, transgender," said Panas.
 
            Marni Panas said the Edmonton charge is a reminder to all communities to report hate-based incidents. (Submitted by Marni Panas) 

Panas said she worries her complaint will make her more of a target "but yet if we remain silent, words have a way of turning into action. And so when we see it we must point it out and talk about it and report it."

Panas said she was emotional when police called her two weeks ago to inform her of the charge.

"They took it incredibly seriously and clearly they took the due diligence that they needed to find grounds to charge this man," said Panas. "It just reinforces how important our police service is, and how actively engaged they are in trying to stop hate. And a reminder to the rest of community, all communities, that when you see something you report it."

The Alberta Hate Crimes Committee advocacy group Tuesday put out a news release expressing concern about the most recent data from Statistics Canada showing that, overall in Alberta, hate incidents were up by 39 per cent in 2015, climbing from 139 to 193, compared to a five per cent rise nationally

The Alberta Muslim Public Affairs Council, which tracks Islamophobic-related incidents, says members are seeing an upsurge.

When we see it we must point it out and talk about it and report it
- Marni Panas, advocate

"It seems in the age of Trump that some people feel more and more emboldened to spew this hateful rhetoric and they're going to be held accountable," said Wells, singling out those "hiding behind keyboards" to send hateful messages.

"I think that's the key message that comes out of this case with the Edmonton Police Service — that you cannot hide if you're going to promote hate," said Wells.

EPS declined comment on the charge. But a police spokesperson said the issue will be discussed Wednesday at a news conference planned to talk about hate crimes. 

Wells said he doesn't favour stifling free and fair speech and respects differences of opinion expressed through constructive conversations. "But no one should have to experience this level of victimization and trauma," he added.

Hate incidents don't just target the individual but also send a message that tells the wider community they don't belong and "they're not safe here," he said.

Lewd, homophobic flyers target Eggen, Wells

In another case involving Wells, Education Minister David Eggen's department has made a complaint to police after the distribution in his Edmonton riding of lewd, defamatory, and homophobic flyers.

The flyers, which CBC isn't printing due to their highly offensive nature, falsely claim Eggen and Wells sought to educate school children about sexual acts, including one described in crude detail.
 
Homophobic and defamatory flyers were recently distributed in Education Minister David Eggen's riding. (CBC)

"These images are highly inappropriate for children and I can't begin to imagine why someone would deem it reasonable to distribute them publicly," wrote Eggen in a statement. "My understanding is this matter has been turned over to the police."

The pamphlet also notes that a government-funded website, overseen by Wells' organization and meant to support students who belong to gay-straight alliances, was forced to remove some online links in March after complaints from Edmonton blogger Theresa Ng.

CBC requested comment through the email address provided at the bottom of the pamphlet but received no response.

Pride complaints

Meanwhile, several incidents that occurred during last weekend's Pride celebrations in Edmonton have also been reported to police, including a rainbow flag cut down at an Edmonton high school. Police confirmed alleged harassment of some revellers caught on video are being looked at by hate crime investigators.

But Wells said "the love and energy" at the Pride festival "far outweighs the small-minded actions of hate and homophobia" in the community.

"We we will not be afraid, we will not hide away," said Wells. "In many cases these hateful responses only embolden us where we can turn this hurt to help ... and a force for building inclusive communities all across our province and country."

Wilfully promoting hatred carries a maximum penalty of up to two years in prison. Winters appeared in court June 9 but no further court appearances have been scheduled.

'Nobody was safe from it': Edmonton blogger charged with rare hate crime targeted individuals across Canada

Police say Barry Winters, 62, made derogatory remarks about race, gender, politics

Blogs that led to a rare charge of promoting hatred were more extreme than anything he's ever seen before, says an Edmonton police investigator.

"I've never seen such extreme hatred from an individual," said Edmonton police Sgt. Gary Willits. "He just kept spewing and nobody was safe from it.

"He literally in some of these blogs was saying to kill people."

After an investigation of more than a year, Edmonton police confirmed Wednesday a CBC News report a day earlier that revealed Barry Winters, 62, was charged with wilful promotion of hatred on a blog called The Baconfat Papers and other blogs between 2014 and 2016. But police say there's reason to believe the posts date back at least two years earlier.

Copies of the blog submitted for evidence by one of many complainants in the case show the blogger repeatedly made derogatory comments about numerous individuals across the country, including a number of well-known politicians and LGBTQ advocates in Edmonton.

The remarks don't exclusively target one particular group, but focus on various factors, including race, gender, sexual orientation and culture. Others attack individual politicians in various levels of government.

Willits said it's possible some people still don't know they were targeted in the blog posts.

Complainants hurt, scared

Glenn Canning, based in Toronto, said there were dozens of posts on Winters' blog between 2014 and 2016 about his daughter, Rehtaeh Parsons. She committed suicide after she was sexually abused by a group of teenage boys at a party in Halifax in 2013.

Canning said he discovered his daughter and his family were the subject of the blog posts after someone contacted him and told him about them.

It just broke my bloody heart in half to read that.
- Rehtaeh Parsons's father Glen Canning

The blogs that focused on Rehtaeh were "just disgusting and sick," Canning said.

"It just broke my bloody heart in half to read that. It was cruel and it is even crueller to know that the guy did it for no other reason than he enjoyed hurting somebody."

Canning said he was in touch with police over the past year after they opened the investigation. He's glad police have finally laid a charge.

"I've cried over this," Canning said. "When it happens to you over a very personal thing, it affects you pretty badly."

Marni Panas, an Edmonton-based LGBTQ advocate, said she was appalled when she stumbled across posts on a blog suggesting she move to a country where transgender women, like herself, are persecuted.

You don't know who's on the other end of these keyboards.
- Marni Panas

"You don't know who's on the other end of these keyboards.You don't know what they're capable of and that instills a real fear," said Panas, who notified police in 2016.

Panas said she has experienced online hateful comments before, but said it stood out that the blogger in this instance was from the same city.

She said she'd never met the the blogger, to her knowledge, but wondered what would happen if she did.

Exhausting investigation

Willits said police began the investigation in early 2016, after they received complaints about the blog posts. Collecting the evidence was time-consuming and complicated, he said, because patterns of hatred, threats and harm had to be documented meticulously.

Willits said stating an opinion, a personal dislike, of something or someone, is not the same as "intruding on others" and "uttering threats."

The charge Winters faces is rare. Alberta Justice said in an email that province-wide, that type of charge has only been laid on three other occasions since 2011.

Edmonton police had to seek approval from the attorney general to charge the blogger, who police say had a growing following numbering into the thousands. 

The posts were filled with derogatory words and "dehumanized scorn" toward people and identifiable groups, Willits said.

pretended that I don't exist ever since.However the corrupt cops allow
you to go on and on for some strange reason even after I had your old

That said watch me embarass the cops a little more tonight byway of

Notice how quick G $ made a Twitter account slammed your evil wifey
then fed you more info on my kid that embarassed the Hell out of you
in a heartbeat because he had fooled you into thinking it was my
daughter who was attacking you?

FYI I am constantly astonished and how stupid you are but I love
embarassing the Hell out your cop friends with your evil work and that

RCMP loses another top officer in Rod Knecht
Rod Knecht was seen as a candidate to replace Bill Elliott, but he
opts for Edmonton police chief’s job; Elliott will now stay until
September

TONDA MACCHARLES / TORONTO STAR Order this photo

RCMP Senior Deputy Commissioner Rod Knecht will soon head back out
west to take up job of Edmonton police chief.

By: Tonda MacCharles Ottawa Bureau, Published on Tue May 24 2011

OTTAWA—Another senior RCMP officer is quitting the force early,
bringing to seven the number of senior commanders who have left RCMP
headquarters on Commissioner Bill Elliott’s watch.

Senior deputy commissioner Rod Knecht, 54, was tapped less than a year
ago to be the top operational Mountie and Elliott’s right-hand man.

Knecht says he never came to Ottawa in August hoping, or even wanting,
to replace Elliott as commissioner. But many believed that with 33
years service, and a stellar record, he was next in line for the top
job that Elliott has held since July, 2007.

Knecht admitted he found it more “difficult” than expected to work at
RCMP headquarters, arriving at a time when Elliott was under fire for
what his critics called a “verbally abusive” management style.

But in an exclusive and candid interview at an east-end coffee shop
with the Star, Knecht insists “the big factor” in his decision to quit
Ottawa and the RCMP is family. His two teenaged daughters found the
move to Ottawa tough, and he has opted to return to Alberta.

He accepted a five-year contract as chief of Edmonton’s police service
in early April, replacing former Toronto deputy chief Mike Boyd.

Knecht’s decision to quit was announced quietly during the federal
election campaign. Just as quietly, Elliott has let it be known the
election delayed his own June departure and he will stay until
September.

An active search is underway for Elliott’s replacement. Knecht has a
frank view of what’s needed.

“I think we do suffer a crisis of leadership in the organization. I
think we as an organization haven’t been very good at identifying and
developing future leaders.”

He points to the Canadian military which “was in a similar situation
as we have been in” since the late 1990s and early 2000s “and they
have really embraced leadership and aggressively pursue it.”

Arriving amidst the turmoil of Elliott’s tenure, Knecht says he
quickly decided to “focus on operations,” including a redrawing and
rejuvenation of the RCMP’s senior organizational structure. It’s led
to more than 40 officers in leadership positions across the country
shifting around.

Knecht himself followed the footsteps of a leader he admired: Bill
Sweeney, his predecessor as senior deputy commissioner as well as the
past top commanding officer in Alberta. Sweeney retired in July for
family reasons and never publicly complained about the commissioner.

But Sweeney did reveal concerns to the Privy Council Office in an exit
interview last June, a parliamentary committee has been told.

That led to the government summoning several other senior officers,
including deputy commissioner Raf Souccar, to discuss Elliott’s
workplace behaviour. Souccar testified under oath he never leaked the
turmoil to the media. But Elliott accused him of betrayal.

Souccar retired from the force and is now running security at the
Royal Canadian Mint. Others have also left: assistant commissioner Pat
McDonell, now in charge of Senate security; his brother Mike McDonell,
an assistant commissioner who left for the Ontario Provincial Police;
deputy commissioner Tim Killam; and assistant commissioner Bernie
Corrigan. All chose to retire with full pension.

Knecht says change at the RCMP must be constant. That’s why he
authored a big policy change — now in the hands of the senior
executive committee to decide — to rotate the RCMP’s leaders on a
five-year basis from national headquarters back out to the field.

Reflecting on what the RCMP needs in leadership, Knecht said “it’s
really all about” improving public safety and security for Canadians
and “supporting our personnel” to focus on that job. “In its simplest
form that’s what being the commissioner of the RCMP boils down to.”

In an organization of 31,000 employees, “people will make mistakes in
the organization and people will do bad things, and you’ve got to deal
with those people. If I had a criticism of the RCMP we are too slow in
dealing with our issues. We take too long.”

The other clear “imperative” Knecht sees is that the RCMP needs
“better and more respectful” relationships with governments at all
levels.

“The RCMP cannot be political but they have to be politically astute.
I would say we need to work at that.”

The contenders list for the top job usually includes: Peter German,
deputy commissioner for the Western region; Bob Paulson, deputy
commissioner for federal and international policing (replacing
Souccar); Peter Hourihan, deputy commissioner and commanding officer
for B.C.; and assistant commissioner Bill Smith, commanding officer in
Newfoundland and Labrador.

Possible outside contenders are Ottawa police chief and former Mountie
Vern White and Garry Loeppky, a former deputy commissioner who retired
but returned on contract during the Olympics. Toronto police Chief
Bill Blair’s name has also surfaced.

But it is clear a search committee is canvassing even more broadly
outside the force in search of a leader. Rob Wright, a past national
security advisor to Paul Martin, has surfaced as a possible candidate.

Chief Rick Hanson

 Chief Rick Hanson joined the Calgary Police Service in 1975, and has
extensive experience in a number of different investigative and
operational areas. For more than half of his law enforcement career,
Chief Hanson has worked at a senior management level, both within the
Calgary Police Service and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Chief Hanson has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Social Sciences from the
University of Calgary, and an Honorary Bachelor of Arts Degree in
Criminal Justice from Mount Royal University. He is also a graduate of
the University of Calgary's Executive Development Program, the FBI
Leadership in Counter-Terrorism Program, and the Canadian Police
College Executive Development Program.

Before returning to the Calgary Police Service in 2007, Chief Hanson
was the RCMP "K" Division Chief Superintendent in charge of Integrated
and Federal Policing.

Constantly in contact with the community he serves, Chief Hanson has
tight ties to organizations supporting the city's homeless, victims of
domestic violence and programs geared towards youth intervention and
education.

He is also a strong advocate of establishing effective diversion and
treatment programs, and aligning the Calgary Police Service with other
important agencies to address social disorder and addictions at the
earliest stages.

>>>>>
>>>>> I had gone to the emergency department at the local hospital and as I
>>>>> was having my temperature and blood pressure taken a Doctor Grapes
>>>>> walks over and picks up my medical records and starts to read and as
>>>>> he is doing this he looks at the nurse and states right in front of
>>>>> me. I quote: "Isn't that funny, me and the other doctors have a bet on
>>>>> who gets to pronounce him dead." I could not believe my ears. He then
>>>>> set down my file and walked out the door.
>>>>>
>>>>> I will expand on this by stating that the cop who tried to murder me
>>>>> in my hime and the one who I shot in the left arm with a 12 gauge shot
>>>>> gun loaded with #4 birdshot, his wife was a nurse here in Quesnel for
>>>>> years. She has worked with all these doctors and they all have seen my
>>>>> internet statement on YouTube. (Quesnel, RCMP, Corruption: The Lonnie
>>>>> Landrud Story – for those of you who haven't seen or heard about it).
>>>>>
>>>>> I will continue by stating that I am sitll suffering Post Traumatic
>>>>> Stress Disorder (PTSD) and that I cannot even get treated because the
>>>>> RCMP have stated that this event never happened, nor any of the
>>>>> others. I for one know when I shot someone in my home and even if I
>>>>> were in my home alone the RCMP members cannot prove me wrong. That
>>>>> night they had to radio out on a public channel because their ghost
>>>>> channels do not work or their cell phones due to my property's
>>>>> location. There are dozens of people who heard what was taking place
>>>>> and heard that Paul Collister was shot by me. There are a lot of
>>>>> scanners here in public hands that are monitored around the clock. I
>>>>> have spoken to some of these people. Perhaps someone should start to
>>>>> listen to the whole truth! Like I have stated in previous letters, if
>>>>> I could not prove my story I sure as hell would not be risking my
>>>>> life. The evidence can speak for itself. I can sure point to a lot of
>>>>> evidence, all's I need is for someone outside the RCMP to investigate
>>>>> and to interview the people that I have spoken with.
>>>>>
>>>>> Now at this point some of you Honourable Members might want to send me
>>>>> to the RCMP Complaints Commission or the Independent Investigations
>>>>> Office of B.C. (IIOBC). I have already tried and neither one has the
>>>>> mandate to investigate this situation. The Complaints Commission only
>>>>> reviews paperwork put forth by the RCMP. The other's mandate is to
>>>>> investigate only after September 12th, 2012. This is the date given by
>>>>> Shirley Bond, BC Solicitor General to the IIOBC and this was after the
>>>>> fact that she knew the situation that I have been trying to deal with
>>>>> (I have a letter from her that was handed to her by Kevin Falcon and
>>>>> the reply letter that she sent me). She too sent me to the Complaints
>>>>> Commission. Then she signed a twenty year deal with the RCMP shortly
>>>>> thereafter.
>>>>>
>>>>> There is not one thing that anyone of you Honourable Members can't
>>>>> tell me to do that I have not tried. I have had five legal advocates
>>>>> and not one could do anything. I have contacted hundreds of lawyers
>>>>> and cannot find one to represent me. They are all scared to be
>>>>> victimized by the RCMP. I've been to the media and had the same
>>>>> outcome with then. I have also tried a private investigator and he too
>>>>> was threatened with obstruction of justice charges which would destroy
>>>>> his credibility. I have sent a letter to Wally Opal, Supreme Court
>>>>> Justice who was looking into the murdered and missing women by way of
>>>>> Public Inquiry. I received no reply at all.
>>>>>
>>>>> I have in my possession enough evidence to prove that I have No Legal
>>>>> Rights, No Civil Rights and No Human Rights in Canada.
>>>>>
>>>>> The reason being the RCMP are above the law and will be until they no
>>>>> longer investigate themselves.
>>>>>
>>>>> Now I would hazard to guess you're asking why would I continue to
>>>>> expose myself to the danger that I face? My reply is these cops are
>>>>> not going to stop trying to murder me anyway so what do I have to
>>>>> lose? Then add the fact that I have survived this thus far. Unlike the
>>>>> thirteen people who have been murdered by these RCMP members and on
>>>>> top of all that the fifty girls that have came forward to the Human
>>>>> Rights watch dogs in Prince George, B.C., then you had better realize
>>>>> there is a lot more at stake than this. I've spoken to a few of them.
>>>>>
>>>>> There is no way in hell that I am going to sit back and let members of
>>>>> the RCMP murder people. Just like I am not going to let you Honourable
>>>>> Members hid behind your mandates and policies. Someone had better
>>>>> realize that I have nothing left to lose but I still have a means to
>>>>> expose this to the people of Canada and the world.
>>>>>
>>>>> Now I will tell you my story and I'm going to give the names of the
>>>>> RCMP members involved and expose what they have done to cover up the
>>>>> truth. I am not going to start with what led up to the first attempt
>>>>> on my life.
>>>>>
>>>>> I was house sitting for a friend's mom when I witnessed the murder of
>>>>> Deena Lynn Bream by Paul Collister and Bev Hosker, both members of the
>>>>> Quesnel RCMP. But there was a paid informant, Dianne Fuccenecco there
>>>>> also.
>>>>>
>>>>> I phoned the Quesnel detachment of the RCMP however their night calls
>>>>> go to Prince George dispatch. I told them about the gun shots that I
>>>>> was hearing, eight in all. It sounded like a twelve gauge shot gun. I
>>>>> never gave my name. I was told that they would dispatch the police to
>>>>> the location (Sugar Loaf Ball Park in West Quesnel). The next morning
>>>>> I had a surveillance team in a trailer next door. It consisted of the
>>>>> following RCMP officers: Constable Gill, Constable Gruending,
>>>>> Constable Hughs, Constable Hosker and later on Constable Collister.
>>>>> These are the names that I was giving to Sgt. Norrise of the Kamloops
>>>>> RCMP the morning after I shot Constable Collister in my home.
>>>>>
>>>>> Unknown to me I was recorded and after the tape was tampered with was
>>>>> used in court and with the Complaints Commission when I filed a
>>>>> complaint. I can prove it was tampered with. I had a witness sitting
>>>>> right next to me when I spoke to Sgt. Norrise and what I wait was a
>>>>> lot different than the tape. What my witness suggested I tell them
>>>>> (which I did) does not even appear on the tape. There are also other
>>>>> discrepancies that appear on the tape.
>>>>>
>>>>> At the time I did not know the names of the members that, with
>>>>> Constable Collister, came to my property. They were Constable Kinloch
>>>>> and Constable Coutier (the ones on top of my house and the ones who
>>>>> pursued me across my landing). Constable Barkman, Constable McMillan,
>>>>> Constable Anderson, these were the police officers that I saw at my
>>>>> gate. Constable McMillan and Constable Anderson were the ones who
>>>>> hunted me in my field. This was the third attempt.
>>>>>
>>>>> The second attempt was a few months earlier in which Constable
>>>>> McMillan, Constable Rogas came to my friend's home and arrested me for
>>>>> obstruction of justice. I committed no crime and had no idea why I was
>>>>> being arrested. I was severely beaten with a flashlight while in
>>>>> handcuffs and taken to the Quesnel detachment where Constable Paul
>>>>> Collister's old partner Constable Sardinea tried to murder me with a
>>>>> pressure point attack that has not healed to this day.
>>>>>
>>>>> The attempts in between were by paid informants or police officers
>>>>> that I could not get a good look at. I can identify some of the paid
>>>>> informants.
>>>>>
>>>>> The eighth attempt was by Constable Ray Kinloch of the Quesnel RCMP.
>>>>> He came to my rural home and property. He was dressed in camouflage
>>>>> and wearing the same fur hat as the night that I shot Constable
>>>>> Collister.
>>>>>
>>>>> It was an hour and a half after dark and he had to travel two
>>>>> kilometres through the bush to be where he was at. I felt a direct
>>>>> threat to my life and I shot at his head and then heard him run
>>>>> through the bush and trip and fall. I left and went to my mom's. When
>>>>> I returned a few days later I located where he tripped on a piece of
>>>>> blowdown and I found something that fell out of his pocket. I also
>>>>> have a witness to corroborate part of my story.
>>>>>
>>>>> The ninth attempt was by a paid informant. Again, severe injuries.
>>>>>
>>>>> The tenth attempt was by someone with a rifle with a silencer that
>>>>> tried to shoot me in the head in my own yard. As I stated to Christy
>>>>> Clark it was dumb luck that the bullet missed me. However I again did
>>>>> not escape injury.
>>>>>
>>>>> The eleventh attempt was on January 19th, 2013 when, after spending
>>>>> the night at my friend's trailer (the same one I phoned the police
>>>>> from years earlier when I witnessed the murder), someone during the
>>>>> night tampered with my propane ignition system in my truck by taking a
>>>>> hose clamp off and pulling the hose off the intake to my engine and
>>>>> also pulling a plug wire off the front spark plug.
>>>>>
>>>>> My truck also runs on gasoline and I was using that until my trip
>>>>> home. When I changed over I was moving and had travelled a few miles
>>>>> before the truck exploded. If I had been sitting still I would not
>>>>> have survived. However I was moving and the explosion occurred beneath
>>>>> the truck lifting it off the ground. The result was a near fatal
>>>>> accident with a family of four including two children. They were
>>>>> passing me and travelling in the same direction and were right next to
>>>>> me at the time.
>>>>>
>>>>> I'm in a quandary and have no understanding as to why this situation
>>>>> has been allowed to continue. I have tried everything humanly possible
>>>>> to have this investigated from outside the RCMP. There is a lot more
>>>>> information and witnesses that I can expose but for now I feel like
>>>>> this should prove that this is no delusion.
>>>>>
>>>>> To the Honourable Christy Clark: Re: The letter that was your response
>>>>> after the tenth attempt on my life. Here is what happened after you
>>>>> suggested going to pro-bono law, Access to Justice. In late December
>>>>> 2012 I tried five times to contact them and leaving messages. I
>>>>> received no replies.
>>>>>
>>>>> I tried again in late January 2013 and spoke to someone. He stated
>>>>> that he was the office manager. He never gave his name. I explained my
>>>>> situation and what was taking place and what I have done. He suggested
>>>>> that I run. I told him that I had nowhere to go. He gave me a phone
>>>>> number and said that they could help me. It turned out to be a
>>>>> homeless shelter. So I phoned him back leaving him a message. He
>>>>> returned my call four days later. I explained to him that I did not
>>>>> need a shelter, that I needed a lawyer to give me legal advice. To
>>>>> this day I've had no legal advice!
>>>>>
>>>>> I again explained my situation. He stated that he was a lawyer and he
>>>>> could not help me. I requested that in writing. His reply was, "We get
>>>>> 10,000 calls a day and we do not have the time to write letters to
>>>>> everyone." He went on to state that I should continue to deal with the
>>>>> Complaints Commission. This after I explained to him that I've been
>>>>> down that road before and they only review paperwork put forth by the
>>>>> RCMP. He went on again to state that I should run!
>>>>>
>>>>> A couple of days later I phoned the Complaints Commission to request
>>>>> the phone numbers of Bob Paulson, Head RCMP commissioner and Craig
>>>>> Cullen, Deputy Commissioner here in B.C. I spoke to a lady who stated
>>>>> she was a complaints commissioner and that I had no right to that
>>>>> information. That she, herself, could not contact them directly. She
>>>>> suggested that I try the RCMP website. I have no access to a computer.
>>>>> I however have had and the web sites that are connected to me are
>>>>> being stalked by the RCMP. I have exposed two such sites that have
>>>>> been created by the RCMP. I will also state that my mom's phone has
>>>>> been tapped and after contacting Telus I was told that I have no right
>>>>> to that information.
>>>>>
>>>>> On January 19th 2013 I went to the Native Friendship Centre and spoke
>>>>> to Criss Dunlope who handles legal aid and explained my situation to
>>>>> her. She asked, "Why are you coming to me?" I told her that I needed a
>>>>> lawyer and legal advice. She said that she was not a lawyer and
>>>>> everything she could suggest I have already done. She went on to state
>>>>> that I should go underground because my situation will not change
>>>>> until the RCMP quit investigating themselves.
>>>>>
>>>>> On February 6th, 2013 I again phoned the RCMP Complaints Commission. I
>>>>> asked the receptionist that answered if the commission's mandate has
>>>>> changed or do the RCMP still investigate themselves. She stated, "No,
>>>>> our mandate is still the same and the RCMP still investigate
>>>>> themselves." I told her my situation and she said, "I will have an
>>>>> analyst phone me back."
>>>>>
>>>>> I received a phone call twenty minutes later. It was a man's voice who
>>>>> asked, "Now what the fuck do you want?"
>>>>>
>>>>> Now I am a logger and used to such belligerence until he continued by
>>>>> stating, "We have been down this road in 2005 and we will not deal
>>>>> with this any further you fucking asshole." So I asked him, "Can I get
>>>>> that in writing?" He replied, "No, we have given you everything in
>>>>> writing we are going to give you!"
>>>>>
>>>>> So I asked, "So you're telling me I have no rights. I just had someone
>>>>> try to blow me up after I was at a friend's and some one tampered with
>>>>> my propane system."
>>>>>
>>>>> He asked, "Did anyone see who did it?" I replied, "Well the only
>>>>> enemies that I have been dealing with are cops and they are the ones
>>>>> I'm trying to get investigated." He said, "No, we cannot help you." So
>>>>> I said, "So you're telling me that you're going to do nothing just
>>>>> like when I shot Constable Paul Collister? I mean it would have been
>>>>> really simple to subpoena the medical records of Collister." I went on
>>>>> and said, "You know that I did shoot him in the left arm with a twelve
>>>>> gauge shotgun loaded with #4 birdshot! That he is still being treated
>>>>> for a blockage in his ulna." I then added, "I could implicate him in
>>>>> as many as thirteen murders." He then stated that they have done
>>>>> everything that they could and then told me again that I could go fuck
>>>>> myself.
>>>>>
>>>>> I understand why he treated me the way that he did. In my opinion he
>>>>> did an inadequate and inept job when asked for a review by the
>>>>> Complaints Commission. He went solely on the word of Sgt. Hildebrant
>>>>> who was Constable Collister's cohort for years and then add the
>>>>> tampered-with tape.
>>>>>
>>>>> I mean, would you not ask for proof that Collister was not shot? How
>>>>> hard would it have been to ask for medical reports?
>>>>>
>>>>> It's also my opinion that the Complaints Commission is just a cover-up
>>>>> organization for the RCMP and is a useless facet of our justice
>>>>> system.
>>>>>
>>>>> Something I do not understand is why do the RCMP have such control?
>>>>> They are just people like us.
>>>>>
>>>>> You know that I have been asked by lawyers why I was not dead yet and
>>>>> why are you trying to get us killed?
>>>>>
>>>>> I have also been told that I am a threat to national security by these
>>>>> same lawyers. I have always asked why? I'm just trying to deal with a
>>>>> system that has a crack in it that I've unknowingly fallen into. I'm
>>>>> just trying to stay alive. Is that too much to ask? I've had to relive
>>>>> this much too long.
>>>>>
>>>>> The stress and anxiety and the fear for my life, along with the
>>>>> physical injuries, has left me feeling like I'm being tortured to
>>>>> death.
>>>>>
>>>>> I ask all you Honourable Members what do I do, let them murder me? I
>>>>> have always stated to everyone that I may have to forfeit my life.
>>>>> That, I have always expected, but I ask you, am I not going to fight
>>>>> to defend my life?
>>>>>
>>>>> I mean I could go ballistic like the ex-L.A. police officer who was
>>>>> reported to have murdered other police officers. I can relate to some
>>>>> of the feelings but my no means can I understand why he did what he
>>>>> did. I believe there has been enough killing already. That is why I'm
>>>>> doing what I'm doing to prevent me from having to harm anyone. I have
>>>>> only asked for someone to investigate from outside the RCMP and I
>>>>> request to be put in protective custody till this is resolved. I also
>>>>> request medical treatment to see if my injuries can be treated.
>>>>>
>>>>> On the other hand, what do I do if you ignore my requests? Do I go to
>>>>> the United States and ask for asylum? These RCMP members are above the
>>>>> law and will not stop till I'm dead and there is no one who protects
>>>>> me from my supposed protectors. I always thought this was a free
>>>>> country to do what I want within the laws of Canada. Having to live in
>>>>> almost house arrest conditions for nine years has shown me that we
>>>>> live in a police state. I cannot even go to my own home, I have to
>>>>> live with my mother in order to feel any sort of safety and even then
>>>>> it's very little. There has been no way out of this. I have tried
>>>>> everything.
>>>>>
>>>>> I ask the Honourable Christy Clark about your letter dated November
>>>>> 28th, 2012. You stated that you could not get personally involved. Yet
>>>>> you sent my letter to the Quesnel RCMP detachment to be investigated.
>>>>> Your actions exposed every piece of personal identification that I
>>>>> possess to the people who are trying to murder me. These RCMP members
>>>>> have a computer system called C.P.E.C. and now can track me where ever
>>>>> I go in Canada. I ask you, is that not overstepping your mandate and
>>>>> in doing so exposing me to further threat?
>>>>>
>>>>> The RCMP officer who phoned me on your behalf was police officer Ray
>>>>> Kinloch. He asked me to go in and make a statement. I refused. Reason
>>>>> one is for fear of my life and reason two is I'm not going to give him
>>>>> the evidence so it can be altered or go missing.
>>>>>
>>>>> I realize that by stating this I'm not making friends or allies and I
>>>>> do apologize if I've offended you. That was never my intention, ever.
>>>>> I wish that I did not have to involve any of you Honourable Members
>>>>> but what choice do I have? The truth is the truth and life is like
>>>>> that. I have only tried to deal with what's been given to me.
>>>>>
>>>>> I believe that you are the people who look out for society's best
>>>>> interests. These RCMP officers murdering people and investigating
>>>>> themselves is a threat to society is it not? You Honourable Members
>>>>> are our representatives by way of legal election. I've never voted for
>>>>> who would be members of the RCMP and I sure never put them in a
>>>>> position where they are above the law. This has resided in the
>>>>> policies that government has mandated since the time of confederation.
>>>>>
>>>>> I believe that this arcane system has done nothing to protect myself
>>>>> or anyone from being victimized by members of the RCMP and in doing so
>>>>> has left these same RCMP members unaccountable for any crimes that
>>>>> they choose to commit.
>>>>>
>>>>> I will state that if someone from outside the RCMP with a mandate to
>>>>> investigate the RCMP does investigate and I am found not to be telling
>>>>> the whole truth I would expect to be charged with obstruction of
>>>>> justice with the full knowledge of the maximum sentence that can
>>>>> brought down upon me. I fully expect to be held in compliance with
>>>>> Canadian law.
>>>>>
>>>>> I ask you Honourable Members if the I.I.O. office in Ontario can
>>>>> investigate the members of the B.C. RCMP. They have been mandated for
>>>>> a longer period of time. I however do not know if they can be
>>>>> interprovincial. They are a federal branch are they not? I have no way
>>>>> to contact them.
>>>>>
>>>>> Look. I am not trying to destroy the RCMP. I just believe that they
>>>>> should be held accountable. I also know that they are a valuable
>>>>> organization with a lot of good people who are a benefit to society's
>>>>> safety. On the other hand there is a subculture within the RCMP that
>>>>> is a detriment to the safety of the Canadian public by being above the
>>>>> law and investigating themselves.
>>>>>
>>>>> Please do something. I cannot go on living in fear for my life when I
>>>>> know that the laws can be changed and I can feel free to live my life
>>>>> again.
>>>>>
>>>>> I do request a reply in writing from all you Honourable Members in
>>>>> regards to this matter.

>>>>>
>>>>> The Obvious Need for a National Public Inquiry!
>>>>>
>>>>> August 19, 2014 (Ottawa, ON) - The Native Women’s Association of
>>>>> Canada (NWAC) is once again extremely disheartened and discouraged to
>>>>> learn that the wrapped body, pulled out of the Red River, Manitoba on
>>>>> August 18, was that of 15 year-old Tina Fontaine, who had only very
>>>>> recently gone missing.  And, just a week ago prior to this event, the
>>>>> remains of another young Aboriginal woman, Samantha Paul, was found
>>>>> near Kamloops, BC.  “Every week now, we hear of another Aboriginal
>>>>> girl or woman, who has gone missing, to be found brutally murdered.
>>>>> This must stop!” exclaimed Michèle Audette, President of the Native
>>>>> Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC).
>>>>>
>>>>> As indicated in the recently released Royal Canadian Mounted Police
>>>>> (RCMP) report, Missing and Murdered Aboriginal Women: A National
>>>>> Operational Overview, the total number of Aboriginal who have been
>>>>> identified as missing or murdered clearly indicates that they are
>>>>> over-represented among all of Canada’s missing and murdered women.
>>>>> “This is a national disgrace, a national tragedy and a travesty of
>>>>> justice for Aboriginal women and is an issue that all Canadians have
>>>>> to take ownership of”, said President Audette.  NWAC, and its’ many
>>>>> supporters, have been relentless in its call for a national public
>>>>> inquiry and a comprehensive action plan to address this crisis.  “With
>>>>> the ever increasing number of missing and murdered Aboriginal girls
>>>>> and women, there is an obvious need for a National Public Inquiry -
>>>>> nothing else will do”, said President Audette.
>>>>>
>>>>> The Native Women's Association of Canada (NWAC) is founded on the
>>>>> collective goal to enhance, promote, and foster the social, economic,
>>>>> cultural and political well-being of First Nations and Métis women
>>>>> within First Nation, Métis and Canadian societies.  As a national
>>>>> organization representing Aboriginal women since 1974, NWAC's mandate
>>>>> is to achieve equality for all Aboriginal women in Canada.

More Stupid Human Tricks! And More Stupid Amos And Stupid You Tuber Tricks
Last Wednesday Lori was off work. She has most Wednesday's off. And I
try to take her out after I am off work on Wednesday's, to a late
lunch, dinner, shopping, or just enjoying  Summer's last days. Last
Wednesday, Lori and I decided to have a late lunch, (around 3:15) at
the Sherlock Holmes Pub, a landmark if you will, in downtown Edmonton.
This is a wonderful UK style pub in a marvelous two story old
building.

It being 3:15 in the afternoon the pub was deserted, and we sat down
at a table for two in front of the bar. We both ordered "a pint" and
steak and kidney pie, and Lori a chicken pot pie. Lunch for two at
this trendy landmark with two pints each is about seventy-five bucks,
with tip. So one wants a pleasant experience for their money.

A small group of four arrived from work apparently, and seated
themselves at the table for six beside us. In a short while two others
joined them. The two story pub was deserted. As the server, brought us
our really delightful looking lunches, and a second pint each, the
just arrived loud, obnoxious, "paki" leader of the pack told the
server, "they were going to need," the table we were sitting at. The
server to her great and everlasting credit told the "drone" she had,
"just served our lunches and moving them (us) was not an option. But
the entire pub was empty perhaps they could sit up stairs or on the
other side of the bar!"

The "wacky paki" drone thereupon immediately came to me, and told me,
"they needed our table, and we had to move."  I put on my very best
John Wayne voice, and said, "not hardly!" He reiterated, "I don't
think you understand our group requires that table." I told him, "I
don't give a shit what you require, and don't get your hands too close
to my wife's face whilst she is eating, or you may lose them." Our
"wacky paki" did not appreciate the humour, but the bartender
certainly did. What on earth would possess some immigrant to order
about a couple having lunch. this sort of thing, simply "isn't on!"

After work today, I wasn't feeling well, so I stopped at the food
court in Commerce Place to drink some water, and wait for the next
bus. I bought a National Post, two bottles of water, placed my water,
cane, hat, and hoodie upon the paper, and shuffled off to the Men's
room. When I returned a large, almost elderly guy was reaching for my
paper.  I said, " what the fuck are you doing?" He looked surprised as
he said, " I'm sorry, I thought the paper didn't belong to anyone!" I
told him. " Whilst, I may be inclined to listen to how he may have
come to such a conclusion, but I didn't think he was bright enough to
come up with a plausible explanation for such abject stupidity." He
just left, quickly.

Let us now update the "situation" of our "friend" David Amos, and his
family of diseased "sex trade workers!" They say in Halifax, "no one
swallows paste like an Amos!" David Amos, and his daughter's have
refrained from spamming Lori's and my e mail boxes, and stopped the
harassing "tweets." Except for of course David's Brother in Fort
McMurray 780 713 6836. David Amos told me "he was going to ignore me
for awhile." For which Lori and I are eternally grateful. But alas our
little "friend" David checks my blog several times a day, and trolls
Pat Doran's You Tube Channel by posting selective quotes of posts I
published about the You Tube world, culture and etiquette.

Patrick Doran and I don't always "see eye to eye" on everything, but
who does! I like, and admire Pat and so does Lori. Unlike David Amos,
or Charles Leblanc, Pat works, is self- reliant, helps take care of
the people he's with, because notwithstanding one's views, that's what
men, real men do. Having said that, I confess to utter confusion, over
"slut shaming," the "mano-sphere," or "false flagging," video games,
pop culture, "conspiracy theories," why anyone in their right mind
would listen to Alex Jones, and the so called You Tube "community."
Nevertheless, Pat Doran has honour. Something our favourite troll and
pimp David Amos is bereft of!

As I caught the # 1 bus in front of Commerce Place to go home, I ran
into my blind friend Robert. As I attempted to help him and climb
aboard the bus a incredibly black couple, the woman being huge pushed
both Robert and myself aside, boarded the bus and sat in the priority
seating for the impaired , elderly, blind strollers and etc. I asked
politely for them to move, and "big mama" was both rude and
belligerent. Saying she didn't have to get up for "white people!" At
that point the ETS driver interjected, " but you do have to get up for
blind and mobility impaired white people."

I would say, there's another "stupid human trick" but alas "big mama"
obviously isn't human.

RE EPS File#15-024047 If Paul Lynch is the "conniving, charming, yet not too bright Irish cop" his client Barry WINTERS aka Mr Baconfat is referring to then perhaps he should file his own complaint?

The EPS and many politicians are well aware that their client Barry
WINTERS immediately after polling day in Alberta published proof of my
contacts with Cindy BRUNEAU, many politicians and her threat to have
me arrested by the EPS.

Hell 5 months earlier WINTERS even went so far as to publish my
contact with BRUNEAU'S City Hall lawyer Don MARSHALL way back in 2009
as he FALSELY CLAIMS THAT I HAD SENT HIM A DEATH THREAT?

Then on June 13th after he had been purportedly arrested WINTERS
reveals to all byway of his blog that the EPS had paid him a visit on
exactly the same night in December of last year when the RCMP were
harassing me again?

I have proven this all to the RCMP, many other cops lawyers,
bureaucrats and politicians, Edmonton City Hall, the EPS, its lawyers
and its Police Commission byway of writing since 2007. You all have
continued to ignore me or threatened me with arrest until Const
Woodall was killed and now the EPS wishes to pretend it is willing to
uphold the law before I sue City Hall Correct?

Well scroll down to review only some of your client's many PUBLISHED
malicious words that do constitute Death Threats, Sexual Harrassment,
Hate Speech, Libel and slander etc all very much against various
sections of the Canadian Criminal Code.

A word to the wise please note that WINTERS has published his bragging
of his guns many times and claims that his military training as a
sniper NCO in the PPLI has made him a crack shot at a 1000 yards with
a 7.62.

Quite frankly I truly believe WINTERS recent postings in his blog
attacking the EPS since he was arrested is a ploy in order to use a
mental health defence against his proper prosecution.

“Negro” Women, Knives, and Edmonton Transit
by baconfatreport on June 18, 2015

baconfatreport:

    A conniving, charming, yet not too bright Irish cop was offended
by a post about Edmonton’s Bus Pigs not being around or on the buses.
I reblog this related classic for his edification and vexation.

Originally posted on baconfat55:

Today after work, I boarded a not too crowded #5 bus in front of
Commerce Place on Jasper Avenue to return home from work. I embarked
the bus and sat on one of the front side-facing seats. Two black women
sat on the front-facing seats directly adjacent to me. One stop into
our commute two Transit Peace Officers, one woman, and one Man,
boarded the bus. The two black women were stunning in a sleazy sort of
way. Both had black leggings on, had “camel toes,” hooker boots, and
titties spilling out of their blouses / tops.

One of the women smiled broadly, and shrilled, “sir, sir, can I ask
you a question?” The male Transit “cop” looked down upon our “wannabe
hooker’s” titties and immediately began to drool. I almost asked the
“lady” if she wanted a handkerchief to wipe the “cop’s” drool of her
off her titties, but alas, I restrained…

Convicted and registered sex offender and pedophile David Amos is

    David Amos’ daughters, son and his mother have been fucking
sailors, dogs and negroes, and swallowing paste for in the Boston area
for decades. Little David Amos does NOT like this humble blog. He has
called, harassed, cried, whined, bitched, moaned, commiserated, and
complained about this blog to: Prime Minister Stephen Harper, CSIS,
CSE, The Boston Field Office of the FBI, SEAL TEAM SIX, “those US
Marshall Dudes in DC,” my landlord, two Premiers of New Brunswick,
Premier Redford of Alberta, “Yo Jimmy Boy Prentice Premier of Alberta,
the Governor of the Bank of Canada, the RCMPJ Division, RCMP K
Division, the Military Police, three Canadian Forces colonels, a
Major, two sergeants, and an entire platoon of other ranks, the
Halifax Police, the Edmonton Police, the Calgary Police, and Elizabeth
II Queen of England. To absolutely no avail, no effect, in fact no one
on the planet listens to little David Amos, Dale Amos, or his
prostitute children. I still write my blog, and no one has ever
complained to me about it, save little David Amos, and molester of his
own daughter Glenford Canning.

    Sonya D Higgins has tried to shut me up, anonymous tried to shut
me up, Glenford Canning tried to shut me up, threatened myself and my
wife with “guys from CFB Edmonton,” called and threatened my wife at
her place of employment, and with a media “outing.” No media has
written about me, or “outed” me. Slut Girl Rehtaeh Parsons is still
dead as a mackerel, food for the worms, Glenford Canning is still
guilty of child abuse, and still hated throughout Halifax. And …I
still write whatever I want.

    Dale, and David Amos and the “klan” are still bent over holding
their knees…my little bitches, whilst I grunt, and drool all over
them. The Amos “klan” has been well and truly fucked over the last
roughly ten years. They are beaten, defeated, whupped like a mule. I
still blog, and the Amos “klan” still is ignored and despised.

The Rantings of Violent David Amos!
by baconfatreport on December 14, 2014

David Amos e mailed myself and the Edmonton Police Service to tell
them that it appeared Mayor Iveson and Chief of Police Rod Knecht
would be pleased that David Amos and myself would “kill each other,”
come Monday morning. Now little David Amos isn’t a threat to anyone.
First of all David Amos, and his siblings are the product of drunken
incestuous sexual congress. David Amos has the attention span of a
gnat. Little David is dyslexic, and devoid of the requisite mental and
financial capacity to rise to the purchase of an air fare and actually
find Edmonton Alberta on the best day he ever had.

David Amos is so pathetic he had his brother Dale Amos come to
Edmonton, late last summer video my apartment building, go to my local
bar, masturbate outside our window, and claim, “he was gonna get me!”
David Amos lives in Halifax, in maritime kanada that’s sort of
behavior is considered normal.

Here is an example of what he calls his work!

>
> I am freelance writer and photographer living in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
> Since April of 2013, following the death of my daughter Rehtaeh
> Parsons, I has been an advocate for her and other victims of sexual
> violence as well as victims of cyber-harassment. I’ve met with Prime
> Minister Harper and numerous other public figures with the goal of
> turning tragedy into positive change. I am the recipient of the 2013
> Rosalind Prober Award for Advocacy.
>
> I am available for select speaking engagements. I do not charge a fee

> The purpose of my life has taken a dramatic turn following the death

> My writing has appeared the world over. I’ve been interviewed by the

>   It’s sad some people find meaning through the suffering of others.
> Rehtaeh’s story has attracted international headlines and with that I

>
> Another troll is Chris Rowe who also admits he blackmailed Amanda
> Todd. He uses the alias Philip Rose online and comments on almost

>
> Locally in Halifax there are a couple – Andrew Douglas and Blake
> Hunsley. Douglas texted me asking if I liked the talk about naked
> little girls during a sentencing hearing into Rehtaeh’s case. He also
> has exposed a rape victims name and harasses her continuously. Hunsley

> Rehtaeh’s death.

> Fortunately most people see the troll nonsense for what it is.

>   I was born in Baden, Germany, and raised in Alberta and Ontario,

> I joined the Canadian Navy in 1981 and retired in 2009 after more than

Blog taken down, blogger facing charges for hate-based content

Julia Parrish, Web Reporter, CTV Edmonton
@JuliaParrishCTV

Published Wednesday, June 14, 2017 11:15AM MDT

Edmonton police said a man had been arrested and charged for the
operation of a number of hate-based websites.
The Edmonton Police Service Hate Crimes Unit started their
investigation in June 2016, after a number of complaints came in over
hateful content published on a number of websites – the sites included
daily posts containing strong, hate-based rhetoric targeting a number
of communities.
It’s alleged some posts included violent threats of harm against
specific people – targeting the LGBTQ community and political leaders.

“It’s one thing to post something that you don’t like but you start to
promote hatred and threaten an individual, and threaten to put harm up
on an individual and create a following, that’s when we are going to
start getting involved,” Sgt. Gary Willits with the EPS Hate Crimes
Unit said.
“There is often an assumption of anonymity when crimes are committed
in an online forum,” Const. Trevor Shelrud with the EPS Hate Crime
Unit said in a statement. “We want citizens to know that regardless of
the forum, we take hate crime seriously.”
It’s believed the websites dated back as far as 2014 to the present.
Barry Winters, 67, has been charged with willful promotion of hatred.
Police said Winters had amassed an online following with thousands of
members, and one of his targets was Marni Panas, a well-known
transgender advocate.
“You’re always wondering, is the next one going to be Barry Winters,
or more importantly is it going to be someone who read his blogs and
have been motivated by his words to act out on these things,” Panas
said.
Panas told CTV News she ‘Googled’ herself, and came across a blog
called The Baconfat Papers, which had thousands of followers.
“Very disturbing comments from people on many faiths, many races,”
Panas said, in addition to the threats she found that were against her
specifically.
“As I read more and I shared with my friends, we realized this person
was from Edmonton, that was certainly concerning, that’s just very
close to home,” Panas said. She called police, and an investigation
was launched.
EPS said this may be the first time that this type of charge has been
laid. Police said the charge can be difficult to prove, but police
said the case had extreme concerns as the accused often promoted harm
against others.
Police said Winters posted daily, and his posts included violent
threats against specific individuals, including the Prime Minister.
“We went from political figures to certain races, to genders, sexual
orientation, no one was safe from his comments or hatred,” Willits
said.
Meanwhile, the blog has been taken down, and Winters has been released
on conditions – including he can’t publish content online.
The charge carries a sentence of up to two years in jail.

Edmonton police charge blogger with hate crime against prof
'It made me concerned for my own safety,' said Kris Wells, one of the
LGBTQ advocates allegedly targeted
By Andrea Huncar, CBC News Posted: Jun 13, 2017 4:32 PM MT

Edmonton police have laid hate crime charges after a complaint from
LGBTQ advocate Kris Wells, pictured above. (CBC)
Edmonton police have charged a local blogger with a hate crime for
allegedly targeting some local well-known LGBTQ advocates in a series
of online posts, CBC News has learned.
Court records show police have charged Barry Winters, 62, with wilful
promotion of hatred in ongoing posts for his blog The Baconfat Papers
over a two-year period ending Dec. 31, 2016.
The charge is the result of a lengthy investigation after Kris Wells,
professor and director of the Institute for Sexual Minority Studies
and Services at the University of Alberta, and at least one other
LGBTQ advocate, complained more than a year ago.
As an advocate for human rights, Wells said he is regularly harassed
by phone and online.
"But this particular kind of message really did cross the line and
targeted me personally," he said in an interview. "It made me
concerned for my own safety."
•       No charges laid after Edmonton hate-crime investigation into man
with noose on LRT platform
•       Edmonton police threaten charges for distributing anti-Islam flyers
•       Rainbow flag cut down on Pride day at Edmonton high school
Over the past year there have been several high-profile investigations
by the Edmonton Police Service's hate crimes detail but the threshold
is high to lay a hate-related charge.
But Marni Panas, another well-known activist, said when she first
stumbled upon the blog in May 2016 she feared for her personal safety
and decided to report it.
"I was quite concerned because this person was from Edmonton, and if
you read it you will see this person has a clear level of hate towards
gay people, transgender," said Panas.

Marni Panas said the Edmonton charge is a reminder to all communities
to report hate-based incidents. (Submitted by Marni Panas)
Panas said she worries her complaint will make her more of a target
"but yet if we remain silent, words have a way of turning into action.
And so when we see it we must point it out and talk about it and
report it."
Panas said she was emotional when police called her two weeks ago to
inform her of the charge.
"They took it incredibly seriously and clearly they took the due
diligence that they needed to find grounds to charge this man," said
Panas. "It just reinforces how important our police service is, and
how actively engaged they are in trying to stop hate. And a reminder
to the rest of community, all communities, that when you see something
you report it."
The Alberta Hate Crimes Committee advocacy group Tuesday put out a
news release expressing concern about the most recent data from
Statistics Canada showing that, overall in Alberta, hate incidents
were up by 39 per cent in 2015, climbing from 139 to 193, compared to
a five per cent rise nationally.
The Alberta Muslim Public Affairs Council, which tracks
Islamophobic-related incidents, says members are seeing an upsurge.
'When we see it we must point it out and talk about it and report it'
- Marni Panas, advocate
"It seems in the age of Trump that some people feel more and more
emboldened to spew this hateful rhetoric and they're going to be held
accountable," said Wells, singling out those "hiding behind keyboards"
to send hateful messages.
"I think that's the key message that comes out of this case with the
Edmonton Police Service — that you cannot hide if you're going to
promote hate," said Wells.
EPS declined comment on the charge. But a police spokesperson said the
issue will be discussed Wednesday at a news conference planned to talk
about hate crimes.
Wells said he doesn't favour stifling free and fair speech and
respects differences of opinion expressed through constructive
conversations. "But no one should have to experience this level of
victimization and trauma," he added.
Hate incidents don't just target the individual but also send a
message that tells the wider community they don't belong and "they're
not safe here," he said.
Lewd, homophobic flyers target Eggen, Wells
In another case involving Wells, Education Minister David Eggen's
department has made a complaint to police after the distribution in
his Edmonton riding of lewd, defamatory, and homophobic flyers.
The flyers, which CBC isn't printing due to their highly offensive
nature, falsely claim Eggen and Wells sought to educate school
children about sexual acts, including one described in crude detail.

Homophobic and defamatory flyers were recently distributed in
Education Minister David Eggen's riding. (CBC)
"These images are highly inappropriate for children and I can't begin
to imagine why someone would deem it reasonable to distribute them
publicly," wrote Eggen in a statement. "My understanding is this
matter has been turned over to the police."
The pamphlet also notes that a government-funded website, overseen by
Wells' organization and meant to support students who belong to
gay-straight alliances, was forced to remove some online links in
March after complaints from Edmonton blogger Theresa Ng.
CBC requested comment through the email address provided at the bottom
of the pamphlet but received no response.
Pride complaints
Meanwhile, several incidents that occurred during last weekend's Pride
celebrations in Edmonton have also been reported to police, including
a rainbow flag cut down at an Edmonton high school. Police confirmed
alleged harassment of some revellers caught on video are being looked
at by hate crime investigators.
But Wells said "the love and energy" at the Pride festival "far
outweighs the small-minded actions of hate and homophobia" in the
community.
•       Edmonton high school students told to remove Pride decorations raise
rainbow flag at legislature
"We we will not be afraid, we will not hide away," said Wells. "In
many cases these hateful responses only embolden us where we can turn
this hurt to help ... and a force for building inclusive communities
all across our province and country."
Wilfully promoting hatred carries a maximum penalty of up to two years
in prison. Winters appeared in court June 9 but no further court
appearances have been scheduled.

'Nobody was safe' from man charged with hate speech over 'extreme'
blogs: Edmonton police

Sgt. Gary WIllits, with the Edmonton police hate crimes unit, spoke to
media at Edmonton Police Headquarters at 9620 103a Ave. in Edmonton,
Alta., on Wednesday, June 14, 2017, after Barry Kent WInters, 62, was
arrested and charges with willful promotion of hatred on June 1, 2017.

A 62-year-old Edmonton man has been charged after police received
complaints regarding hateful content published on several websites.
“Nobody was safe from his comments or hatred,” said Sgt. Gary Willits
of the Edmonton Police Service hate crimes unit, speaking at police
headquarters on Wednesday.
Hate crimes investigators said the websites included daily posts that
used “strong, hate-based rhetoric” targeting various communities and
allegedly alluding to violent threats and harm against specific
individuals.
“This was extreme,” said Willits. “(The accused allegedly) had a
following and he was constantly promoting harm upon others. When we
see a pattern of that and a following he is creating and the fear that
he is putting in individuals, that’s a major concern for us.”
Barry Winters has been charged with wilful promotion of hatred.
He allegedly authored two blogs, the Baconfat Papers and the Baconfat
Chronicles, while contributing to other websites.
Kris Wells, a professor of education at the University of Alberta and
the director of the Institute for Sexual Minorities Studies and
Services, said he was one of the targets of the two blogs and a
complainant in the case.
“I hope this sends a message to all those people hiding behind their
keyboards that there will be consequences,” he said Wednesday morning.
Willits said he hopes this charge sends a strong message to those who
think they can use the anonymity of the Internet to escape the
consequences of their actions, warning, “We will hold you
accountable.”
Wells said the investigation was long and complicated, and took more
than a year.
Willits said detectives focused their investigation on comments dating
back to 2014, but found hateful posts going back to 2012 targeting
political figures and people of various genders, sexual orientations
and racial groups.
“When I met with police, they had binders and binders of material,” said Wells.
Complainant Marni Panas, a vocal transgender rights advocate, said
while seeing hateful messages written about her wasn’t new, being
written about by name by someone inciting violence who lives in the
same community made these threats “particularly disturbing.”
“You don’t know who is on the other end of these keyboards; you don’t
know what they are capable of,” Panas said.
While she was concerned reporting the hateful messages could make her
subject to more hatred, Panas thanked police investigators who made
her feel safe in reporting the crime.
“People like this work on that fear, and that fear silences you. By
remaining silent, you remain vulnerable. The Edmonton Police Service,
I can’t thank them enough for taking this as seriously as they did,”
Panas said.
The charge of wilful promotion of hatred is rare. It is the same
charge that Eckville social studies teacher Jim Keegstra faced in 1984
after teaching Holocaust denial and Jewish-conspiracy theories in his
classroom.

Paula Simons: He may be Canada's 'ultimate troll,' but is an Edmonton
blogger also a criminal?
 Paula Simons, Edmonton Journal

Published on: June 14, 2017 |
Police charged Edmonton blogger Barry Kent Winters, 62, with wilfully
promoting hatred against an identifiable group June 1.
That’s an extremely rare charge under the Criminal Code. The Edmonton
Police Service can’t recall any other time when they’ve charged
someone under its provisions. There’ve been just three charges under
that section in Alberta in the last six years.
Winters’ appalling blogs, the Baconfat Chronicles and the Baconfat
News, have been a cancer in Edmonton for years. They contain horrible
references to indigenous people, using the most scurrilous racist
terms, calling them animals and subhuman. They contain equally
terrible terms about gays, lesbians and transgender people. They
attacked feminists. Muslims. Fat people. Chinese people. Black people.
Rape victims. The homeless. People with developmental disabilities.
People from the Maritimes. Catholics. The United Church. Cyclists.
Pre-schoolers.
The blogs are a spray of hate diarrhea, spewed in the most vile vocabulary.
The blogs also contain rants about public figures, including Edmonton
actor and anti-racism activist Jesse Lipscombe, First Nations writer
and politician Wab Kinew, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier
Rachel Notley. They attack local gay academic Kris Wells, and local
trans activist Marni Panas. The blogs repeatedly threatened to post
nude pictures of young Halifax sexual assault victim Rehteah Parsons,
who had committed suicide following her assault. They also accused her
father, Glen Canning, of molesting her.
“He’s just mean and cruel,” says Canning. “It’s very sick stuff. He
called for Elizabeth May and me to be tied to stakes and bayoneted,
while he watched. He’s the ultimate troll in Canada right now. He’s
just a disgusting bigot.”

Glen Canning, father of Rehteah Parsons, the young Halifax girl who
committed suicide after being sexually assaulted, says his family has
been victimized for years by the Edmonton blogs. Lacy Gillott /
SunMedia
In most cases, the blogs didn’t threaten people directly. Instead,
they contained fantasies about the different ways they might die.
One post described how wonderful it would be to watch a gorilla rape
and kill a prominent female Alberta politician. Another post
fantasized about watching feminist journalists, lawyers and academics
forced at gun point into a gas chamber.
In another era, the blogs’ author would be a bitter crank yelling at
strangers in the food court. Instead, police say, the blogs had
thousands of readers, with a growing audience. And so after years of
complaints, and a 13-month investigation, police finally laid the rare
hate charge, with the written consent of Alberta’s deputy attorney
general, Philip Bryden.
I’m grateful to see Edmonton police taking the case seriously. It’s
sickening to think the blogs found an eager online readership.
Already, the courts have forced Winters to take them down, as a
condition of his pre-trial release.
Yet is this the way to deal with speech — even awful speech — in a
free and democratic society? Quite apart from the possible impact on
the Charter free speech rights we all enjoy, we run a risk in taking a
relatively anonymous loser and giving him national notoriety.

Holocaust denier Jim Keegstra, who died in 2014, used the notoriety of
his hate crimes trials to posture as a free speech martyr. CP
When Jim Keegstra, the anti-Semitic Eckville teacher was charged with
promoting hatred in 1984, he wasn’t silenced. Instead, 12 years of
appeals and retrials gave him a platform to posture as a free-speech
martyr. Even after his conviction was upheld by the Supreme Court in
1996, his sentence was a mere 200 hours of community service.
Meantime, he used his infamy to become leader of the federal Social
Credit party.
“It doesn’t make a free society look very good when we criminalize
speech we find offensive,” says Eric Adams, who teaches constitutional
law at the University of Alberta. “Maybe you cause more harm than you
fix, when you bring down the heavy arm of the state on crazy people.
“Ultimately, I think it is a reasonable limit to have some criminal
sanctions on some forms of speech. But then you have to set a very
high bar to charge someone.”
It probably does symbolic good for our community to signal our
collective denunciation of the loathsome blogs. They don’t just
express views; they encouraged violence. They don’t make explicit
threats, but they incite specific hatred. And I applaud the brave
Edmontonians who stood up to the bullying and complained to police.
But arresting a crackpot blogger makes me nervous, and not just
because it erodes freedom of speech for us all. Hate is a hydra. Cut
off one head, and two or three more grow in its place. I worry less
about Barry Winters, and more about what darkness marches in his wake.

Threats From Faggot And Pedophile Kris Wells

Over ten years ago four faggot pedophiles from a long ago "pride
parade" marshaling and gathering at Oliver Community League tried to
"pick up" or "lure" a tall sun bronzed fourteen year old Rugby player.
Austin was looking and admiring a 58 Cadillac and these animals were
admiring and plucking at his arms and head, until the boy's Mother and
myself intervened. Every faggot I see now, is a pedophile. Every
faggot is a pedophile. Faggots are pedophiles! Every "member" of the
so called LGBTQ "community" is a fraud, dishonest, a poseur, a liar
and animal pathetically begging society for "acceptance," and
validation."


Keep religious beliefs out of politics gay activist threatens Alberta
minister....

Kris Wells, "director" of The University of Alberta's so called
"Institute for Sexual Minority Studies has been caught lying. Faggot
pedophile Kris Well has been caught lying to the National Post, and
threatening Alberta Premier Jim Prentice, and Alberta Minister of
Education Gordon Dirks. Jim Prentice's choice of Gordon Dirks as
Education Minister is interesting for two reasons: The first being Mr.
Dirks is not an elected MLA, and second being; Mr. Dirks actually has
significant expertise and experience as a School Trustee, and Post
Secondary Christian Bible College official.

Our faggot pedophile "professor" Kris Wells has pompously and
fraudulently claimed that, "LGBTQ issues swing an entire campaign."
And that as Kris  Wells  knows is entirely a lie. Past, perhaps ill
advised, even zealous statements made by candidates previous to the
last election campaign had an effect on some Wild Rose Party
candidates. But throughout the entire campaign  so called "LGBTQ
issues" had no purchase, and nor do they now save in the mind of
faggot pedophile Kris Wells. No one cares about, or for the so called
LGBTQ "community." Nor has it any, absolutely any political sway.
Whereas the "religious right" in every North American political
jurisdiction, does have considerable political sway and influence.

People of faith, religious conviction whether Christian or otherwise
are not the problem. The religiously bigoted so called "LGBTQ
community, and faggot pedophile Kris Wells are the problem. Jim
Prentice and Gordon Dirks gave Kris Wells a hearing about pretend
lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and non existent  trans "issues" in the
Alberta education system. Which was very politically astute of them.

The sanctimonious faggot pedophile Kris Wells told the National Post.
"He had no problems with people of faith running for office." I
thought that rather presumptuous and ignorant of "Mr." Wells because
there are vastly more "people of faith" in Canada and the world, than
the combined so called LGBTQ "community.""Mr." Wells most graciously
said. "He was willing to give Mr. Dirks a chance to prove he could
separate his religious beliefs from his new role as education
minister." Our faggot pedophile Kris Wells has the addled idea that
the "tail can, indeed wag the dog."

No Albertans cares about the University of Alberta and its Women's and
Gender Studies "programme" having not one but two "pride weeks" a
year. No one cares about "gender neutral" bathroom because the freaks
claim they  need "safe place" to pee. Decent, real hard working
Albertans do NOT care about LGBTQ "issues" in the education system or
anywhere else. YOU have the God given Canadian Charter of Rights given
right to be whatever it is you are. But there is no Charter, legal,
moral or even God given right mandating we love, accept, understand,
condone, your sexual behavior, choices, proclivities and or
"orientation."  That includes "people of faith," and their churches,
"Mr." Wells.

YOU "people" have rights to freedom of expression, to education, equal
treatment under the law, the protection of the law, security of the
person, the right not to be bullied, to go about your business and
life, to marry, to adopt, to have the career of your choice and or
qualified for, and so on.

YOUR "human rights" are no different from my own, or that of, people
of faith. We have the God given, inalienable, Canadian Charter of
Rights and Freedoms right to, shun you. remove ourselves, and our
children from you, keep you out of our homes, decide if we really want
you or your ilk in our clubs, teams, and associations. As a parent I
can remove my child from a classroom presided over by a gay, lesbian,
trans "person," bi-sexual, or whatever. I have the right place my
children in private or charter schools to remove them from "people"
like you "Mr." Wells

Mr. Kris Wells your sanctimonious and unrealistic threats about
keeping "religious beliefs out of politics." Are just that,
sanctimonious and stupid. Religious beliefs play a huge role in
politics everywhere in the world. And there are more people on this
"little green planet" that despise and allow no rights human or
otherwise to "people" like you.

It has been recently announced that the University of Alberta is 89 or
84 ( I can't remember which) of the very top 100 universities in the
world. Obviously that was notwithstanding the existence of your
"institute" or the department of Women's and Gender Studies.

"Mr." Wells, non existent LGBTQ "issues" or that "community"  can not
or will not ever, "swing an entire election campaign," in Alberta! If
you told the Premier of Alberta that, "Mr." Wells, he laughed at you!

Blaine Higgs sits down with Dennis Atchison

Blaine Higgs - Voice of the Province - February 2, 2017

Opposition Leader Blaine Higgs sits down with Dennis Atchison to discuss the State of the Province Address, the 2017 Ice Storm, and New Brunswick's future.
 
 
 

New Brunswick NDP meet to elect new leader

The province's NDP will pick a new leader this weekend in Moncton and begin the process of rebuilding the party after dismal election results in 2006.

Communications specialist Dennis Atchison, 51, and former Catholic priest Roger Duguay, 44, will have their names on the ballot. Both men ran unsuccessfully in last year's provincial election.

Allison Brewer stepped down as leader when the party garnered just five per cent of the popular vote in the election. She said she couldn't continue in an unpaid position afterthe party didn't earn any seats in the legislature.

Of the 1,000 eligible voters, only 100 party members are expected to show up in person to vote on Saturday. With a one-member, one-vote system, many delegates have already mailed in their ballots to party headquarters, said Nan Luke, convention co-chair.

Unless the party is able to raise money and boost its profile in the province, it will continue to have difficulty electing members to the legislature, said Don Desserud, a political science professor at the University of New Brunswick.

It will become the responsibility of the new leader to rebuild the party from the ground up, said Desserud.

"It's incredibly difficult to do that unless you've got a dynamic leader that people will want to be with and want to meet and want to come out and see, so they have to do something that's going to be able to capture the imagination of the province," said Desserud.

"It's not so important you go into it well-known, but you'd better come out of this convention with some kind of a profile."

Both of the candidates have a strong background in communicating with the public, said interim leader Pat Hanratty.

"They realize that communication is vital, and also that the party does, and that they're going to have to step up the leader's schedule," Hanratty said.

According to the leadership candidate Atchison, the NDP needs to overcome internal resistance to trying new things and use the next three years to show voters that the party is a viable political option.

Meanwhile, Duguay has said the next leader must concentrate on raising money and restoring inactive riding associations.

New boards for Horizon Health Network, Vitalité Health Network begin term

New boards for Horizon Health Network, Vitalité Health Network begin term

Tom Soucy named chair of Vitalité; Carol Reimer named chair of Horizon

Carol Reimer, a registered nurse and health-care consultant, was named chair of Horizon's board while Tom Soucy, president and CEO of Groupe Westco, was named Vitalité's board chair.

Soucy told Radio-Canada that his role will be "to see what my experience in terms of business management can bring to the organization."

This announcement comes after Health Minister Bruce Fitch introduced legislation in May to change the boards from a mix of appointed and elected members, to entirely appointed boards. It was criticized by the opposition, but received royal assent last month.

Reimer and Soucy will replace Suzanne Johnston and Gérald Richard, who have concluded their terms as trustees of the Horizon and Vitalité health authorities, respectively.

Johnston and Richard were appointed last July in a shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership, following the death of a patient in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital's emergency department in Fredericton.

They have also completed their term as co-chairs of the provincial health plan implementation committee. They started in those positions in November 2021.

Each board of the health authorities will have seven voting members, and the new board members are:

Horizon Health Network

  • Carol Reimer, chair, Zone 3.
  • Dr. Stephen Bolton, Zone 3.
  • Denis Goguen, Zone 1.
  • Donna Redmond Gates, Zone 2.
  • Susan Harley, Zone 2.
  • Jane Nastasiuk, Zone 7.
  • Mike Walton, Zone 2.

Vitalité Health Network

The council will be chaired by the health minister and include two representatives from each of the two health authorities.

Fitch made the announcement through a statement issued Friday.

We will revisit this in 6 months, chances are there will be no positive change. These are cronies don't ever forget that. These are people that pander to the conservative party to get these positions. Conservatives are notorious for chopping budgets especially when budgets need to be increased in certain areas. If you don't believe me look at the more obvious ones such as infrastructure.

It will be interesting to see how long before this collapses. We fail to have intelligent gov't in this province. All the Liberals and Conservatives care about is getting elected. Decisions were made that have blown up in the gov't faces and yet they fail to acknowledge them and they even blatantly refuse to try to fix them. Part of the problem in this province is that people don't get involved in politics and hold political parties responsible for their decisions. We need to have MLA recall. If you can fire employees in a company, you should be able to fire an MLA for their failing to do their job.

Historic Algonquin Resort in Saint Andrews under new ownership

InnVest Hotels will be provided with up to $30-million in a repayable loan

Opportunities New Brunswick was given approval to provide up to $30 million in a repayable loan to the owners, Algonquin Resort LP, of which InnVest is the majority partner, according to an Order in Council document signed by New Brunswick Lt.-Gov. Brenda Murphy.

Jeff Hyslop, a senior vice-president with InnVest, said in a recent interview the resort is a great addition to the company's portfolio and is the first one with a golf course.

Hyslop said the initial plan for renovations will be focused on staff areas.

"We're actually looking at expanding our offering of staff housing because in order for a resort like this to be successful, ensuring we can continue to attract top quality staff is going to be paramount for us," he said.

A head-and-shoulders shot of a man with blond hair and a light blue dress shirt  Jeff Hyslop, the senior vice-president asset management and investments for InnVest Hotels, said the Algonquin Resort is a great addition to the company’s portfolio. (CBC)

The company will also be doing a "soft goods" renovation of the existing hotel, which will include things like carpets, curtains and bedding, said Hyslop.

He said this renovation will not be a major disruption to business operations.

In 2012, the province sold the Algonquin to New Castle Hotels and Resorts and Southwest Properties. The government provided a $21-million repayable loan to those companies and major renovations were done to the building, well over a century old at that time.

Those renovations lasted nine months and the hotel reopened in 2014.

Brad Henderson, the mayor of Saint Andrews, said although he didn't live in the community at the time, he knows the temporary closure of the hotel had a "dramatic impact" on the local business community.

A man wearing a dark blue Nike shirt with a piece of artwork behind him on the left and a map hung up next to it on the right Brad Henderson, the mayor of Saint Andrews, said he met with InnVest in April to talk about the sale and was excited to hear about the plans to elevate the staff experience. (CBC)

He said it was also tough on students graduating from the hospitality program at the local campus of the New Brunswick Community College, as the hotel was a major employer. 

"If you look at all the groups and conferences and things that come to our community, that's so vital to our tourism and drawing numbers in our shoulder season. They all do stay at the Algonquin Resort," said Henderson.

"A successful Algonquin is a successful Saint Andrews and a successful Saint Andrews is a successful Algonquin."

Henderson met with InnVest in April to talk about the sale and said he was excited to hear about the plans to elevate the staff experience because it "bodes well for attraction, recruitment and of course, retention."

The Algonquin has hosted Canadian prime ministers, including the country's first, as well as U.S. president Theodore Roosevelt and then Prince Charles and Princess Diana during their 1983 visit to Canada.

It also served as a stop on the Amazing Race Canada in 2016.

"They're all part of a community effort to really try to put ourselves on the map," said Henderson. "We're looking forward to this next chapter with the new ownership of continuing to do that, if not, obviously elevate it to a new high."

Did we get any of the $21 million back? We usually don't. I thought Higgs was against corporate welfare. I guess that is the same as the concentration of power in the premier's office. He is against it when the other party is doing it, but for it when his is in power.

Prisons head said process to notify minister of Bernardo transfer was followed

Mendicino's office got advance warning of transfer, emails show

Emails released to The Canadian Press through the Access to Information Act appear to show Correctional Service of Canada Commissioner Anne Kelly was not clear on how or why Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino had not been informed before Bernardo was moved out of maximum security.

The public safety minister and his staff have been under heavy scrutiny over the past month as more details have emerged about the timeline of the prison transfer. The Conservatives have demanded that Mendicino resign over it.

The emails show Kelly herself wrote on May 26 to Public Safety Canada's deputy minister Shawn Tupper and associate deputy minister Tricia Geddes.

"I had said I would confirm the transfer with you. It will occur next week," Kelly wrote in an email with "High Profile Offender" in the subject line.

She told them the federal Public Safety Department, Mendicino's office, the Privy Council Office and the Prime Minister's Office "have been advised" and that "we have media lines ready."

Tupper replied just minutes later to thank Kelly for the confirmation.

Bernardo is serving a life sentence for the kidnapping, torture and murder of 15-year-old Kristen French and 14-year-old Leslie Mahaffy in the early 1990s near St. Catharines, Ont. He was also convicted of manslaughter in the December 1990 death of 15-year-old Tammy Homolka, the younger sister of his then-wife, Karla Homolka. Bernardo also ultimately admitted to sexually assaulting 14 other women.

Karla Homolka pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was released in 2005 after completing a 12-year sentence for her role in the crimes committed against French and Mahaffy.

Bernardo spent nearly three decades in maximum security — first at Kingston Penitentiary and then Millhaven Institution near Kingston, Ont. He was transferred to medium-security La Macaza Institution, about 190 kilometres northwest of Montreal, on May 29.

Mendicino's email

The reasons for the transfer have not been made public, with the correctional service citing privacy issues.

But when news of the move went public on June 2, Mendicino took to social media to share his outrage. Mendicino, a former federal prosecutor, described the transfer as an "independent decision" made by the correctional service. He called it "shocking and incomprehensible."

He said he planned to raise "the transfer decision process" with Kelly and expected the correctional service to "take a victim-centred and trauma-informed approach" in such cases.

The documents show Kelly wrote directly to Mendicino on the afternoon of Sunday, June 4.

"Hello minister, saw your tweet," Kelly wrote. "I remain available to meet with you."

Mendicino responded within 10 minutes: "Yes, we'll co-ordinate a call."

Mendicino's office informed in March: CSC

In a brief statement, Mendicino's spokesman said his office made Kelly's agency aware of the minister's tweet before it was posted.

"CSC was informed of the minister's statement through appropriate channels, before it was issued," wrote Alexander Cohen.

The next day, Mendicino told reporters that he had spoken with Kelly and told her that he was "profoundly concerned and shocked by this decision." The correctional service then said the decision to reclassify and transfer Bernardo, which was made according to a legislated set of criteria, was under review.

Two weeks later, the correctional service said it had first told Mendicino's office about the possibility of a transfer in early March and then again in late May after a date for the move had been set. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was briefed on May 29, the day the transfer took place, while Mendicino has said he found out the next day.

A spokeswoman for Mendicino's office has confirmed it was first asked about Bernardo's possible transfer by a staffer in Trudeau's office, who learned of the matter from the Privy Council Office, the secretariat that supports and advises the federal cabinet.

Staff made mistake: Mendicino

The newly released documents show Kelly wrote back to Tupper and Geddes on June 6 to check whether Mendicino's office had been advised of Bernardo's transfer, as she was being asked the same question by the clerk of the Privy Council.

"I understand from my staff that someone at (the Public Safety Department) said (the minister) had not been notified," she wrote in an email with the subject line "PRIVATE — Transfer."

"We have a notification process in place as you know and we certainly followed it."

Mendicino has acknowledged his staff made a mistake in not informing him, but denied it was done to intentionally keep him in the dark.

The minister has not divulged how he went uninformed, but has announced plans to issue a directive saying the public safety minister is to be told of such transfers directly.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Mendicino should issue a similar directive to ensure people convicted of multiple murders, like Bernardo, serve out their entire sentences in maximum-security prisons.

The Liberal government has insisted it needs to be careful not to interfere with the independence of the correctional service — a position with which criminal justice experts and other lawyers agree.

The Correctional Service of Canada has not yet provided an update on its review of Bernardo's transfer.

Tim Danson, a lawyer representing the French and Mahaffy families, has said they want the decision reversed, adding it happened around the anniversary of Leslie Mahaffy's kidnapping and death.

Mendicino's office said Public Safety Canada and the correctional service would provide statements Tuesday about the newly released documents.

Medium security doesn't mean the prisoner is closer to freedom, they're not going anywhere. In fact the only difference is that they may have a few more privileges. Also, there is an established process that was followed. This is according to what I've read from correctional services.

The process is called reintegration. I'm asking if that is the plan? Yes. Moving a prisoner from maximum to medium security is part of reintegration. That is the role of CSC, which Anne Kelly was appointed to take charge of.

David Raymond Amos Versus The Crown T-1557-15



                                                                                             Court File No. T-1557-15

FEDERAL COURT

BETWEEN:                      
DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
                                                                                                  Plaintiff
and

HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
                                                                                                  Defendant

STATEMENT OF CLAIM

The Parties

1.      HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN (Crown) is Elizabeth II, the Queen of England, the Protector of the Faith of the Church of England, the longest reigning monarch of the United Kingdom and one of the wealthiest persons in the world. Canada pays homage to the Queen because she remained the Head of State and the Chief Executive Officer of Canada after the Canada Act 1982(U.K.) 1982, c. 11 came into force on April 17, 1982. The standing of the Queen in Canada was explained within the 2002Annual Report FORM 18-K filed by Canada with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It states as follows:

     “The executive power of the federal Government is vested in the Queen, represented by the Governor General, whose powers are exercised on the advice of the federal Cabinet, which is responsible to the House of Commons. The legislative branch at the federal level, Parliament, consists of the Crown, the Senate and the House of Commons.”

     “The executive power in each province is vested in the Lieutenant Governor, appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the federal Cabinet. The Lieutenant Governor’s powers are exercised on the advice of the provincial cabinet, which is responsible to the legislative assembly. Each provincial legislature is composed of a Lieutenant Governor and a legislative assembly made up of members elected for a period of five years.”      

2.      Her Majesty the Queen is the named defendant pursuant to sections 23(1) and 36 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act. Some of the state actors whose duties and actions are at issue in this action are the Prime Minister, Premiers, Governor General, Lieutenant Governors, members of the Canadian Forces (CF), and Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), federal and provincial Ministers of Public Safety, Ministers of Justice, Ministers of Finance, Speakers, Clerks, Sergeants-at-Arms and any other person acting as Aide-de-Camp providing security within and around the House of Commons, the legislative assemblies or acting as security for other federal, provincial and municipal properties.

3.      Her Majesty the Queen’s servants the RCMP whose mandate is to serve and protect Canadian citizens and assist in the security of parliamentary properties and the protection of public officials should not deny a correspondence from a former Deputy Prime Minister who was appointed to be Canada’s first Minister of Public Safety in order to oversee the RCMP and their cohorts. The letter that helped to raise the ire of a fellow Canadian citizen who had never voted in his life to run for public office four times thus far is quoted as follows:

  “Mr. David R. Amos                                                               Jan 3rd, 2004

153Alvin Avenue

   Milton, MA U.S.A. 02186

                Dear Mr. Amos

      Thank you for your letter of November 19th, 2003, addressed to   
                my predecessor, the Honourble Wayne Easter, regarding your safety.  
                I apologize for the delay in responding.

      If you have any concerns about your personal safety, I can only
               suggest that you contact the police of local jurisdiction. In addition, any
               evidence of criminal activity should be brought to their attention since the
               police are in the best position to evaluate the information and take action
               as deemed appropriate.

       I trust that this information is satisfactory.

                                                              Yours sincerely
                                                                        A. Anne McLellan”

4.      DAVID RAYMOND AMOS (Plaintiff), a Canadian Citizen and the first Chief of the Amos Clan, was born in Sackville, New Brunswick (NB) on July 17th, 1952.

5.      The Plaintiff claims standing in this action as a citizen whose human rights and democratic interests are to be protected by due performance of the obligations of Canada’s public officials who are either elected or appointed and all servants of the Crown whose mandate is to secure the public safety, protect public interests and to uphold and enforce the rule of law. The Crown affirms his right to seek relief for offences to his rights under section 24(1) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Charter). Paragraphs 6 to 13 explain the delay in bringing this action before Federal Court and paragraphs 25 to 88 explain this matter.

6.      The Plaintiff states that pursuant to the democratic rights found in Section 3 of the Charter he was a candidate in the elections of the membership of the 38th and 39th Parliaments in the House of Commons and a candidate in the elections of the memberships of the legislative assemblies in Nova Scotia (NS) and NB in 2006.

7.      The Plaintiff states that if he is successful in finding a Chartered Accountant to audit his records as per the rules of Elections Canada, he will attempt to become a candidate in the election of the membership of the 42nd Parliament.

8.      The Plaintiff states that beginning in January of 2002, he made many members of the RCMP and many members of the corporate media including employees of a Crown Corporation, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) well aware of the reason why he planned to return to Canada and become a candidate in the next federal election. In May of 2004, all members seated in the 37th Parliament before the writ was dropped for the election of the 38th Parliament and several members of the legislative assemblies of NB and Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) knew the reason is the ongoing rampant public corruption. Evidence of the Plaintiff’s concerns can be found within his documents that the Office of the Governor General acknowledged were in its possession ten years ago before the Speech from the Throne in 2004. The Governor General’s letter is as follows:    

                                                                         “September 11th, 2004
          Dear Mr. Amos,     

           On behalf of Her Excellency the Right Honourable Adrienne Clarkson,        
           I acknowledge receipt of two sets of documents and CD regarding corruption,
           one received from you directly, and the other forwarded to us by the Office of
           the Lieutenant Governor of New Brunswick.     

                       I regret to inform you that the Governor General cannot intervene in
           matters that are the responsibility of elected officials and courts of Justice of
           Canada. You already contacted the various provincial authorities regarding

                                                              Office of the Secretary
                                                              to the Governor General”

9.      The Plaintiff states that the documents contain proof that the Crown by way of the RCMP and the Minister of Public Safety/Deputy Prime Minister knew that he was the whistleblower offering his assistance to Maher Arar and his lawyers in the USA. The Governor General acknowledged his concerns about the subject of this complaint and affirmed that the proper provincial authorities were contacted but ignored the Plaintiff’s faxes and email to the RCMP and the Solicitor General in November of 2003 and his tracked US Mail to the Solicitor General and the Commissioner of the RCMP by way of the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) in December of 2003 and the response he received from the Minister of Public Safety/Deputy Prime Minister in early 2004. One document was irrefutable proof that there was no need whatsoever to create a Commission of Inquiry into Maher Arar concerns at about the same point in time. That document is a letter from the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office Inspector General (OIG complaint no. C04-01448) admitting contact with his office on November 21, 2003 within days of the Plaintiff talking to the office of Canada’s Solicitor General while he met with the US Attorney General and one day after the former Attorney General of New York (NY) and the former General Counsel of the SEC testified at a public hearing before the US Senate Banking Committee about investigations of the mutual fund industry.

10.  The Plaintiff states that another document that the Plaintiff received during the election of the 39th Parliament further supported the fact he was a whistleblower about financial crimes. In December of 2006 a member of the RCMP was ethical enough to admit that he understood the Plaintiff’s concerns and forwarded his response to the acting Commissioner of the RCMP and others including a NB Cabinet Minister Michael B. Murphy QC. The Crown is well aware that any member sitting in the last days of the 37th Parliament through to the end of the 41st Parliament could have stood in the House of Commons and asked the Speaker if the Crown was aware of the Plaintiff’s actions. All parliamentarians should have wondered why his concerns and that of Mr. Arar’s were not heard by a committee within the House of Commons in early 2004. Instead, the Crown created an expensive Commission to delay the Arar matter while he sued the governments of Canada and the USA and his wife ran in the election of the 38th Parliament. In 2007, Arar received a $10-million settlement from the Crown and the Prime Ministergave him an official apology yet the US government has never admitted fault. A month after the writ was dropped for the election of the 42nd Parliament and CBC is reporting Syrian concerns constantly, Mr. Arar’s lawyer announcedthat the RCMP will attempt to extradite a Syrian intelligence officer because it had laid a charge in absentia and a Canada-wide warrant and Interpol notice were issued. The Plaintiff considers such news to be politicking practiced by the Minister of Public Safety. He noticed the usually outspoken Mr. Arar made no comment but his politically active wife had lots to say on CBC.Meanwhile, the RCMP continues to bar a fellow citizen from parliamentary properties because he exercised the same democratic rights after he had offered his support to Arar by way of his American lawyers. The aforementioned letter about financial crimes was from the Inspector General for Tax Administration in the US Department of the Treasury. Mr Arar’s lawyers, the RCMP, the Canadian Revenue Agency and the US Internal Revenue Service still refuse to even admit TIGTA complaint no. 071-0512-0055-C exists. However, the Commissioner of Federal Court, the Queen’s Privy Council Office and other agencies were made well aware of it before the Speech from the Throne in 2006.   

11.  The Plaintiff states that from June 24, 2004 until the day he signed this complaint he has diligently tried to resolve the breach of his rights under the Charter that are the subject of this complaint with any public official in Canada whom he believed had the mandate or the ability to request that the Crown investigate and correct the malicious actions and inactions of the RCMP, Sergeants-at-Arms and Aides-de-Camp in all jurisdictions. Until June 16, 2006 the Plaintiff did not have irrefutable proof to support this complaint. Time did not permit him to address it immediately in Federal Court in 2006 because his slate was full. For instance on June 16, 2006 while dealing with deeply troubling private family matters, he was running against the Attorney General for his seat in the NS provincial election while arguing members of the RCMP about strange calls he got from someone in Ottawa who claimed the Department of Public Safety as her client, dealing with many liberal party members who were about to witness in Moncton NB the first debate of all those who wished to become their new leader, assisting a farmer in his attempt to get some authority to properly investigate the demise of his cattle and discussing with members of the Saint John NB City Council the actions of a sergeant in the Saint John Police Force who was calling friends of the Plaintiff and claiming that he was drug dealing member of a bike gang that they should stay away from while he was preparing to intervene in pipeline matter that was about to heard by the National Energy Board in Saint John .

12.  The Plaintiff states that in April of 2007 he wrote a complaint about this matter and returned to the Capital District of NB in order to file it and argue the Crown before the Federal Court if it did not wish to settle. A clerk of this court informed him that his complaint was not composed correctly, so he began to rewrite this complaint. However, as soon as it was known what the Plaintiff was about to file he was subject to further police harassment and his family began to suffer from constant slander, sexual harassment and death threats on the Internet and on the telephone that continues to this very day while the RCMP, the FBI and many other law enforcement authorities continue to ignored the obvious evidence of cybercrime practiced against many people including his minor children. 

13.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown’s only response has been further harassment by the RCMP including false arrest and imprisonment and theft of his property by the Fredericton Police Force supported by other law enforcement authorities in Canada and the USA. The Governor General has had the Plaintiff’s documents for over ten years to study. The Crown now has one of the complaints that the RCMP has been delaying since 2003. It is as follows:

The Complaint

14.  The Plaintiff states that on June 24, 2004 during the election of the membership of the 38th Parliament the Crown breached his right to peaceful assembly and association under Section 2(c) and (d) of the Charter. The Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative Assembly of NB (a former member of the RCMP) supported by the Fredericton Police Force (FPF), the Corps of Commissionaires (COC) and at least one RCMP officer acting as Aide-de-Camp to the NB Lieutenant Governor barred the Plaintiff under threat of arrest from the legislative properties in NB.
 
 
 

About the Office

History

The position of governor general is considered the oldest public office in Canada. It dates back to colonial times, when monarchs appointed governors to act as their intermediaries in State affairs. In 1608, Samuel de Champlain—a governor in all but name—fulfilled several duties and responsibilities that would later be carried out by the governors of New France and, after Confederation in 1867, by governors general of Canada.

Over the years, the role and responsibilities of the governor general have changed and evolved under the French and British regimes and after Confederation. As the role of the governor general has changed, so, too, has our Office. Our actions are driven by the past, present and future of our country.

Our Office has been helping Canada’s governors general to connect, honour and inspire Canadians for more than 150 years. Our mission is to support the governor general and serve Canadians. We are also honoured to be the storytellers of Rideau Hall, in Ottawa, and the Citadelle, in Québec, the official residences and workplaces of the governor general of Canada.

Our Work

The Office of the Secretary to the Governor General (OSGG) supports the Governor General in fulfilling his/her constitutional, State and ceremonial responsibilities.

We are also responsible for planning and implementing the Governor General’s program and the many activities he/she undertakes with, and on behalf of, Canadians in communities across the country and abroad, as well as with the Canadian Forces as Commander-in-Chief. These activities serve to recognize outstanding achievement and the pursuit of excellence by Canadians, and to foster national identity, unity and pride. They also promote Canadian values such as respect for diversity, community participation and public education.

To help Canadians understand the roles and responsibilities of the Governor General and how he/she fulfills them, the Office offers both a public information program and extensive visitor and interpretation programs at the Governor General’s historic official residences at Rideau Hall in Ottawa and at La Citadelle in Quebec City. Together, close to 335,000 people visit these sites each year. 

Through the Chancellery of Honours, we administer all aspects of the Canadian Honours System, including the Order of Canada, the Decorations for Bravery, the Meritorious Service Decorations, Military Valour Decorations, the Polar Medal and the Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers. The Chancellery is also home to the Canadian Heraldic Authority, which is headed by the Governor General, and which creates and records armorial bearings in Canada.

The Operating Budget of the OSGG is approved by Parliament and the OSGG is therefore accountable to Parliament for its expenditures. These expenditures are made public through the Public Accounts process at the end of every year. 

Our Culture

We are proud of the work we do and strive for excellence. Our culture is deeply rooted in a long-standing tradition of service. We welcome members of the Royal family, heads of State, dignitaries and Canadians from all walks of life, all under the same roof. We work closely with the various levels of government, not-for-profit organizations and communities across the country to connect with Canadians and fulfill our mission. This collaboration enriches our work and gives our employees an even greater sense of purpose and accomplishment.

Our Vision and Mission

Our Office is responsible for supporting the governor general in fulfilling the constitutional, State, ceremonial and other responsibilities of the position.

Our vision is to connect, honour and inspire Canadians.   

Our mission is to support the governor general as The King’s representative in Canada and to serve Canadians.

We are responsible for planning and implementing the governor general’s programs and the many activities undertaken across Canada and abroad.

Our activities focus on:

  • Showcasing Canada on the world stage
  • Recognizing outstanding achievement by Canadians
  • Encouraging the pursuit of excellence
  • Supporting the governor general as the commander-in-chief of Canada
  • Fostering national identity, unity and pride in Canadian values.

Our Values

Our employees work together to support the governor general and to serve Canadians with integrity, honour and dedication, in a politically neutral manner. Our Office fosters mutual collaboration, trust and respect by promoting a safe and healthy work environment, where employees are valued for their diversity and expertise.

The core values that guide and motivate our attitudes and actions are:

  1. Pride and honour in service
  2. Proficiency in duty
  3. Respect and trust
  4. Political neutrality and integrity
  5. Collaboration and teamwork

Our Structure

Our Office is headed by a secretary, who serves as senior advisor to the governor general and is herald chancellor of the Canadian Heraldic Authority.

Our Policy, Program and Protocol Branch helps the governor general connect with Canadians through public events and visits. In addition, the Branch is responsible for the governor general and commander-in-chief programs in Canada and abroad. Through its visitor and interpretation programs, the Branch also shares the history of our institution with as many as 300 000 Canadians and international visitors who come annually to Rideau Hall, in Ottawa, and the Citadelle, in Québec.

The Chancellery of Honours recognizes and honours Canadians with medals, awards and decorations. It brings to light the stories of our successes and unsung heroes in our communities. It administers all aspects of the Canadian Honours System and several Governor General’s Awards. The Chancellery is also home to the Canadian Heraldic Authority, which is headed by the governor general and creates and records armorial bearings in Canada.

The Corporate Services Branch provides internal services and implements central agency policies and guidelines that apply across the organization. This branch is divided into two related sections. The first involves financial and material management, information technology, information resources and mail management. The second focuses on human resources, strategic planning, and internal communications, as well as security and transportation services.

Subject: The Commission for Public Complaints against RCMP - #2013-2824
To: "motomaniac333@gmail.com"<motomaniac333@gmail.com>

Dear Mr. Amos:

This is further to your recent communications with the Commission.
From September 18, 2013 to the present, our office has received 6
electronic messages from you. Many of these e-mails are not related to
RCMP conduct.

On October 1, 2013, you called our office and spoke with an Intake
Officer.  You wished to enquire about three complaint files. When the
Intake Officer attempted to inform you that you have three enquiry
files with the Commission, you became agitated and insisted otherwise.
You raised your voice and spoke over the Intake Officer.  You then
demanded the name of the Intake Officer, and subsequently yelled "see
you in federal court" and hung up the telephone line.

As a reminder, we request that all future correspondence with our
office must be courteous in tone and that you are respectful of the
requests that are made of you.  While it is clearly not the intention
of the Commission to prevent you from making complaints against
members of the RCMP, your recent emails and telephone call have been
unproductive for both you and for Commission staff.  In the future, we
request that all communication with our office be respectful in
language and related to our mandate.   In the event that this request
is not respected, the Commission will consider imposing restrictions
on how you may communicate with our office.

Should you have a complaint about a specific RCMP member surrounding a
specific incident, I invite you to visit the Commission's website
(www.cpc-cpp.gc.ca<http://www.cpc-cpp.gc.ca>) to submit an online
complaint, rather than to send an email that is difficult to follow or
a copy of a letter you have sent to many others. The complaint form
will guide you through the information required that will enable the
Commission to process your complaint. Should you have difficulty in
accessing the complaint form and wish to have one sent to you, you may
provide your mailing address and a form will be mailed to you via
Canada Post.

I would also invite you to send your correspondence regarding any new
or existing complaints (quoting the appropriate Commission file
number) by letter mail to:

Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP
National Intake Office
PO Box 88689

Dear Mr. Amos,

This will acknowledge receipt of the documents you sent to this office
and to advise you that I was unable to identify specific issues
related to the conduct of an RCMP member.  I am, therefore, writing to
clarify for you the mandate of the Commission for Public Complaints
Against the RCMP.

This Commission was established by Parliament to oversee the public
policing activities of the RCMP.  Part VII of the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police Act (“RCMP Act”) describes the mandate of this
Commission.  Its mandate is to review “the conduct, in performance of
any duty or function under the [RCMP] Act, of any member [of the RCMP]
…”  Taken as a whole, the concerns outlined in your letter do not
appear to qualify as conduct of the RCMP in the performance of a duty
or function under the Act and, therefore, do not fall within this
Commission’s mandate.

As a result, this Commission has no role to play in resolving the
issues you have raised in your letter.  Accordingly, we will be unable
to process your concerns as a public complaint under Part VII of the
RCMP Act.

If your intention is to submit a complaint regarding the on-duty
conduct of a member(s) of the RCMP, you will need to provide specific
details, such as the date, time and city of each incident, names of
the members you wish to complain about and the details of the improper
conduct as it relates to each of them.

You can do so through our online complaint form located at:

http://www.cpc-cpp.gc.ca/cnt/srv/mac/index-eng.aspx

Alternatively, we can also be reached by:

>> Beantown if you are game to take the bet.

>>

>>        I just called your office and hour or so ago and referred to

>> your recent letter in answer to my friend Byron Prior's years of

>> concerns. I also asked if you were a lawyer. The obvious question I

>> wish to ask you is whether or not the RCMP are under federal

>> Parliamment ask for a Royal Commission to investigate Byron Prior's

>> my business of torturing lawyers with the awful truth about themselves

>> in order that they may fall on their own swords. I am having way more

>> fun than Byron or Mr. Arar could dream of but I know that truth and

>> justice would at least make them happy.

>>

>>      I would think the issue of bringing Byron allegations into a

>> who was awarded the Order of Canada so show enough integrity to allow

>> a simple blood test in order to prove Byron's allegations false. If

>> Byron's allegations prove to be true by Hickman's denial of a blood

>> test or the results of one then many heads should roll throughout

>> Parliament and the RCMP for failing to uphold the Public Trust and the

>> law.I now realize that it ain't important if you Ms. Pilon are a

>> lawyer or not because your boss Irwin Cotler certainly is as are his

>> bosses, Anne McLellan and Paul Martin. Apparently everybody was

>>

>>       In my response to your words to my friend I will deliver many

>> documentsto another lawyer Ronald A. Irwin employed by Parliament to

>> speak for Canadians in Boston. Some of them will iclude documents

>> delivered to the Leutenant Governor Roberts. That man had Byron Prior

>> sign a very interesting document years ago that should be brought into

>> the public view because it concerns the actions of the MP Bill

>> Matthews. Don't try to tell me that is not of federal concern.

>>

>>      By the recent flood of letters sent to me dated on or about

>> Setember 3rd, it appears that many Canadian politically appointed

>> lawyers are rather surprised that I managed to escape the clutches of

>> Attorney General Ashcroft and his cohorts within the DHS and stand in

>> order on Sept 3rd and file many FBI tapes in the Public Record.

>> Apparently Ronald A. Irwin doesn't give a damn about my Safety just

>> like Anne McLellan and Wayne Easter didn't.I know that he is immune

>> from prosecution in the USA but I can certainly complain of him in

>> Canada. What say you Ms. Pilon?

>>

>>       Whereas you Ms. Pilon seem to have all the answers, I must ask

>> you a few questions. When I sue Her Majesty the Queen in the USA, do I

>> served the summons upon Ronald A. Irwin? He does speak for her here in

>> Boston correct? If not upon whom do I serve the documents? Furthermore

>> can I call Ronald A. Irwin to testify in my defense or can he simply

>> continue to ignore me? How do I as a Canadian citizen begin the

>> trying hard to inspire the NDP to cause a confidence vote. October 6th

>> should be an interesting day in Canada particularly if I am allowed to

>> stand in Dorchester District Court on Octber 1st in the USA.

>>

>>       Mere minutes ago I received by US Mail irrefuttable proof of

>> former Prime Ministers Brian Mulroney and Jean Chretien malice towards

>> my family and I. I had expected as much byway of an email notofication

>> from Coldwell Bankers last week yesterday while I stood in court in

>> Norfolk County to argue the very lawyer that began the actions on

>> behalf of criminals in Plymouth County the Clerks offfice of Plymouth

>> County mailed certified proof of the court's willingness to assist in

>> Vehicles is threatening to take our drivers licenses for not willing

>> to pay exise tax on vehicles stolen from our own yard by the State and

>> this after I had notified all their lawyers of the fraud etc.

>>

>>     Whereas many of my concerns involve Securities Fraud I believe

>> that many Canadians should be made well aware of my concerns and of

>> the sort of people that safeguard thei investments. If anyone has any

>> questions perhaps they should seek the counsel of Robert C. Pozen of

>> Boston a director of Bell Canada Inc. and an authority on Mutual Fund

>> The big reveal

>> Posted on May 19, 2014 by Philip Rose

>>

>> Well, the time has come for the final big reveal. And what a reveal it

>> is. Perhaps it was worth waiting for.

>>

>> I have reached a point where I am untouchable, unimpeachable. Who is

>> going to complain?

>>

>> The Todds can’t, because all the details of their appalling parenting

>> will be openly discussed in public, because the terrible behaviour of

>> little Princess Snowflake will make her look more like Queen

>> Queer-the-pitch. And Norm won’t want his peccadilloes exposed, if you

>> know what I mean.

>>

>> Glen Canning can’t, because he would be exposed as breaking the law on

>> several counts, using the mask of Anonymous to show new ‘evidence’

>> that was, in fact, sub judice, just for starters, and then we would

>> continue to the falsification of proof to frame the boys he considered

>> guilty, and then perhaps those naughty pictures of little girls – a

>> stash of which I have kept to myself, ready to be published in the

>> blink of an eye.

>>

>> The RCMP? Don’t make me laugh. Would they seriously want all their

>> ineptitude exposed?

>>

>> Sandy Garossino? Mother to the amphetamine-fuelled Grimes, who has

>> another ton of hidden dirty laundry. Alycha Reda? A mentally disturbed

>> fantasist. They know that I am the specialist. They know that I see it

>> all.

>>

>> Chuck in the pornographer Tara Murphy just for good measure.

>>

>> And last, and probably least, the incompetent Canadian Government.

>> What government is going to want the world to know that they invited

>> the confirmed liar Carol, the closet pedophile Glen and the online

>> mental case Alycha to give them sound advice?

>>

>> So I am invincible. Threats from the insane Anonymous wash over me

>> like water off a duck’s back. No attempt to find me, to name me, to

>> ‘out the vile creep’ have succeeded. In fact, it all just made me

>> laugh.

>>

>> And it’s time for the big reveal. I was the blackmailer.

>>

>> Didn’t any of you stop to think? How did I instantly know that Kody

>> was innocent? How do I know that Aydin Coban is just a hapless

>> scapegoat, a victim of the prevalent anti-foreigner mood that is

>> prevalent in that quasi-Nazi Dutch domain? How did I know every move

>> that Amanda Todd made, almost from cradle to grave? Didn’t it ever

>> occur to you that the chatlogs had to come from somebody who was

>> there? That intimate knowledge of the Capper Community only came from

>> being part of it? How did I know that the Tyler Boo messages had been

>> edited?

>>

>> I was going to put links to Peyton here. To Casey. To Lauren.  To

>> Morgan. Charmander. Who are they? Girls you don’t know, girls you have

>> never heard of (apart from Peyton perhaps). But they are all part of

>> the story, all proof that, yet again, only I know where the secrets

>> are buried. Bianca, Shylah, Tess and Sophie, and dozens more. But hey,

>> I’m fed up with spoon-feeding everyone with information.

>>

>> You will never know my name. Zapthosepests? Just an annoying little

>> traitor/hero faggot. mOd? A fool who wanted to be a moderator. perso?

>> Lots of lolz, an anagram of P. Rose. rOra? Another Dutch twat with a

>> crush on Peyton. Luvyashawty? An idiot who got burned. Google those

>> names. Get yourselves all of a dither. These people were just

>> irritating little fleas. I was top predator, and I still am.

>>

>> So. There it is. Now I’ve told you. Freud said that every criminal has

>> a desire to be caught. That is why the likes of Canning and company

>> subconsciously leave trails a mile wide. Me? I’ll never be caught. I

>> don’t believe in that Freud stuff. Or maybe I’m the exception that

>> proves the rule. I always win. I am the winner.

>>

>> Have a nice day!

>>> Give back flood victims' guns, Harper's office tells RCMP

>>> RCMP took guns out of homes in flooded High River, Alta.

>>>

>>> By Meagan Fitzpatrick, CBC News Posted: Jun 28, 2013 12:49 PM ET

>>>

>>>

>>> Harper's office issued a statement Friday morning in quick reaction to

>>> the news that the RCMP had taken some firearms that they said weren't

>>> stored properly in empty homes.

>>>

>>> "If any firearms were taken, we expect they will be returned to their

>>> owners as soon as possible," the statement said. "We believe the RCMP

>>> should focus on more important tasks such as protecting lives and

>>> private property."

>>>

>>> "We are expressing our view," a spokesman for Harper, Carl Vallee,

>>> said in an email when asked for comment about the statement.

>>>

>>> The RCMP would not comment on the PMO's suggestions, and a spokesman

>>> for the High River detachment said the RCMP were acting in the

>>> interest of public safety.

>>>

>>> "When RCMP officers were going door-to-door searching each residence

>>> for potential victims, we did come across a couple of residences where

>>> there were some firearms that were left insecure," Cpl. Darrin

>>> Turnbull told CBC News in an interview.

>>>

>>> "In those situations, when they were out in plain view and they were

>>> not properly secured and stored, those firearms were taken by the RCMP

>>> member and safely secured in the High River detachment."

>>>

>>> Search was for victims, not guns

>>> Turnbull said once people are allowed back in their homes, they can

>>> pick up their guns, which have been tagged with information so they

>>> will be returned to the proper owner. He didn't know exactly how many

>>> firearms had been collected and emphasized that officers were not

>>> specifically searching for guns or going out of their way to find

>>> them.

>>>

>>> "The RCMP were not searching houses looking for firearms. The RCMP

>>> were going into homes looking for victims. If while we were in that

>>> home looking for victims there was an unsecured firearm that was out

>>> in the open, we had to take that firearm to make sure it was safe."

>>>

>>> At a press conference Friday in High River held by provincial and

>>> municipal officials, RCMP Insp. Gerrett Woolsey told reporters several

>>> hundred guns had been seized as officers inspected every home they

>>> could enter over a period of several days.

>>>

>>> "It's no different than Slave Lake, to seize firearms or to secure

>>> firearms that are in plain view," Garrett said, referring to the

>>> Alberta community swept by fire in 2011.

>>>

>>> Garrett said it appeared that people in High River took their firearms

>>> out of storage with the intention of removing them or moving them to

>>> higher ground, but then left them behind as they fled their homes. He

>>> added that in "the unlikely event" RCMP found an illegal gun, the

>>> public prosecutor would be informed, but "in the vast majority of

>>> cases — I hope in all the cases — we are going to return these

>>> firearms to their owners as soon as possible."

>>>

>>> On Thursday, Alberta's Minister of Justice Jonathan Denis wrote to

>>> Commissioner Dale McGowan of RCMP K Division In Edmonton, asking for

>>> confirmation that the firearms had not been confiscated, but merely

>>> secured, and how firearm owners would be informed about how to

>>> retrieve their property.

>>>

>>> Denis also asked what process would be in place if proof of ownership

>>> of the firearm had been destroyed in the flooding. He ended the letter

>>> saying, "I thank you and the RCMP for their exceptional service at

>>> this time of crisis in southern Alberta."

>>>

>>> Premier defends RCMP

>>> Alberta Premier Alison Redford defended the RCMP and said this

>>> shouldn't be the focus of attention.

>>>

>>> "There is no suggestion that people will not be able to have their

>>> guns back again, and I really hope that we can focus on more important

>>> matters at hand, like getting 12,000 people back into High River than

>>> continue to circulate this story," she said. She wouldn't comment on

>>> the PMO's statement.

>>>

>>> The Canadian Shooting Sports Association doesn't agree with the RCMP's

>>> position that it was acting in the interest of public safety and said

>>> the RCMP had "breached and sullied their contract with the public to

>>> serve and protect."

>>>

>>> "This act of aggression is further proof that the RCMP have a

>>> not-so-hidden agenda to take guns away from responsible gun owners,"

>>> Tony Bernardo, head of the group, said in a release.

>>>

>>> Bernardo said the RCMP overstepped their mandate and he's happy

>>> Harper's office has got involved in the matter.

>>>

>>> "We are advised that the Prime Minister's Office will examine whether

>>> the rights of Canadians have been ignored by the police. I am

>>> confident that the federal government will deal swiftly with those who

>>> have portrayed Canada as a police state in the eyes of the of the

>>> world."

>>>

>>> The RCMP said in a statement issued Friday that officers had no way of

>>> knowing that firearms left unattended would be secure.

>>>

>>> "The last thing any gun owner wants is to have their guns fall into

>>> the wrong hands. Residents of High River can be assured that firearms

>>> now in possession of the RCMP are in safe hands, and will be returned

>>> to them as soon as is practically possible," said assistant

>>> commissioner Marianne Ryan, criminal operations, K Division RCMP. "Gun

>>> owners will also be provided the option of having the RCMP keep the

>>> guns until they are able to store them safely."

Subject: I read what you wrote to Byron lets see how you do with me


Attention
Ginette Pilon Manager,
Ministerial Correspondence
Justice Canada
Ministerial Secretariat
284 Wellington Street
Ottawa, Ontario
Canada K1A 0H8
Telephone: (613) 957-2950

       Please don't try to pretend that you do not know who I am. For
you information I did serve Mr. Byrne the letter at the bottom of this
email with many witnesses and Byron did likewise and got signatures.
On September the 13th Leutenant Governer of New Brunswick finally
answered me with a letter he claims to have written September 3rd.
However on September 2nd I got tired of waiting for everyone to act
ethically so I sent the stuff to Adreinne Clarkson myself and let her
know I was gonna sue the Queen providing the DHS did not to take me
away to be tortured. I tracked the letter and she got it before the
Acadian Leutenant Governor got up enough balls to respond.

       Do you know of anyone taking bets that I will live until
October 1st? Maybe I will give the bookies recorded on the tapes a
call and fix the game to hedge my bets. What say you? I have three
bucks that I will bet you on the side that says I do. To be fair I
have let some of the bastards in Beantown aware of the game to make it
a more even bet for you. I will give it to the Canadian Consulate in
Beantown if you are game to take the bet.

       I just called your office and hour or so ago and referred to
your recent letter in answer to my friend Byron Prior's years of
concerns. I also asked if you were a lawyer. The obvious question I
wish to ask you is whether or not the RCMP are under federal
juristion. When they dropped the ball and failed to investigate
legitmate complaints going back over forty years, should not
Parliamment ask for a Royal Commission to investigate Byron Prior's
concerns just as Mr. Arar now has to investigate his matters? As for
me I don't want one but I am willing to testify on Mr, Arar's or on
Byron's behalf. I just want the truth to be known by all as I go about
my business of torturing lawyers with the awful truth about themselves
in order that they may fall on their own swords. I am having way more
fun than Byron or Mr. Arar could dream of but I know that truth and
justice would at least make them happy.

     I would think the issue of bringing Byron allegations into a
Parliamentry investigation could be easily resolved by asking a man
who was awarded the Order of Canada so show enough integrity to allow
a simple blood test in order to prove Byron's allegations false. If
Byron's allegations prove to be true by Hickman's denial of a blood
test or the results of one then many heads should roll throughout
Parliament and the RCMP for failing to uphold the Public Trust and the
law.I now realize that it ain't important if you Ms. Pilon are a
lawyer or not because your boss Irwin Cotler certainly is as are his
bosses, Anne McLellan and Paul Martin. Apparently everybody was
comfortable with the answer you gave to my friend. Lets see how they
feel about your answer to me once I serve the man in Beantown that
speaks for us all down here. If don't get an answer in writing by my
wife's birthday I will send the Queen a summons for her to answer and
i don't think many Yankees will care if i do. (excepting of course
lawyers) Ms Pilon please feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I
beleive the following words are yours.

      In my response to your words to my friend I will deliver many
documentsto another lawyer Ronald A. Irwin employed by Parliament to
speak for Canadians in Boston. Some of them will iclude documents
delivered to the Leutenant Governor Roberts. That man had Byron Prior
sign a very interesting document years ago that should be brought into
the public view because it concerns the actions of the MP Bill
Matthews. Don't try to tell me that is not of federal concern.

     By the recent flood of letters sent to me dated on or about
Setember 3rd, it appears that many Canadian politically appointed
lawyers are rather surprised that I managed to escape the clutches of
Attorney General Ashcroft and his cohorts within the DHS and stand in
order on Sept 3rd and file many FBI tapes in the Public Record.
Apparently Ronald A. Irwin doesn't give a damn about my Safety just
like Anne McLellan and Wayne Easter didn't.I know that he is immune
from prosecution in the USA but I can certainly complain of him in
Canada. What say you Ms. Pilon?

      Whereas you Ms. Pilon seem to have all the answers, I must ask
you a few questions. When I sue Her Majesty the Queen in the USA, do I
served the summons upon Ronald A. Irwin? He does speak for her here in
Boston correct? If not upon whom do I serve the documents? Furthermore
can I call Ronald A. Irwin to testify in my defense or can he simply
continue to ignore me? How do I as a Canadian citizen begin the
process of seeing him removed from his office? As I write this I am
trying hard to inspire the NDP to cause a confidence vote. October 6th
should be an interesting day in Canada particularly if I am allowed to
stand in Dorchester District Court on Octber 1st in the USA.

      Mere minutes ago I received by US Mail irrefuttable proof of
former Prime Ministers Brian Mulroney and Jean Chretien malice towards
my family and I. I had expected as much byway of an email notofication
from Coldwell Bankers last week yesterday while I stood in court in
Norfolk County to argue the very lawyer that began the actions on
behalf of criminals in Plymouth County the Clerks offfice of Plymouth
County mailed certified proof of the court's willingness to assist in
fraud, larceny and perjury. The Massachuseets Registy of Motor
Vehicles is threatening to take our drivers licenses for not willing
to pay exise tax on vehicles stolen from our own yard by the State and
this after I had notified all their lawyers of the fraud etc.

    Whereas many of my concerns involve Securities Fraud I believe
that many Canadians should be made well aware of my concerns and of
the sort of people that safeguard thei investments. If anyone has any
questions perhaps they should seek the counsel of Robert C. Pozen of
Boston a director of Bell Canada Inc. and an authority on Mutual Fund
issues and a former legal counsel for the SEC. If you are wondering
about the realestate sale I am referring to,  perhaps you should
confer with Francis Galvin of Massachusetts or John R. Buckley Jr. the
Plymouth County Register of Deeds whom will seeks reelection shortly.
I will be suing those bastards in federal court in the USA in short
order along with Brian Mulroney and many lawyers within Cendant Corp.
You all will be invited to participate in the prosecution of an
necessary complaint either as witnesses or litigants against me. These
bastards made the sale of our property seem to be legal five months
after our property was stolen and destroyed without due process of law
in order to protect the interests of many a crooked lawyer in Canada
and the USA.

       Feel free to argue me but you really should wait until Ronald
A. Irwin receives his correspondence from me. One last question do you
think you can trust yyour yankee friends to protect your interests
when I start bringing up the subject of murder? Think fast. I have
already filed some of the evidence in a couple of courts. Everybody
knows there is no honour amongst theives. Ask T. Alex Hickman or John
Crosbie or dig up Joey Smallwood and watch him grinning from the
grave. Alas we all knew Joey too well.

                                                 Cya'll in Court
                                                                  David R. Amos

Barry looks like I guessed right eh? You really should stand with me
in court on Oct 1st and at least testify as to why the criminal
complaint against me involves federal issues.I don't care what your
partners think it is my ass that is on the line that is why I gave
your some of the wiretap tapes perhaps you should make certain that
someone I respect receives Three of them right away and simply send
her the contents of my mail to Dane M. Shulman but save the envelope
so that I can prove that I did not go his office on April fools day
but merely employed the US Postal Service.

    Hey Byron would you like me to sue the RCMP in Newfoundland? The
bastards gave me their final answer on September 3rd as well. I could
call you and Ms. Pilon to testify.



                                                   July 30, 2004

Mr. Byron Prior
66 Readers Hill Crescent
Conception Bay South, Newfoundland & Labrador
A1W 5B4

Dear Mr. Prior:

    On behalf of the Honourable Irwin Cotler, Minister of Justice and Attorney
General of Canada, I acknowledge receipt of your correspondence involving
allegations of sexual assault. The office of the Honourable Bill Graham,
then Minister of Foreign Affairs, as well as former Member of Parliament
Mr. Dennis Mills, also forwarded your concerns to Minister Cotler. I apologize
for the delay in responding.

    Allegations of criminal offences should be directed to the police. While
the Parliament of Canada is responsible for enacting criminal law, the
administration of justice in a province, including police services and the
prosecution of Criminal Code offences, is the responsiblility of the
provincial governments. Neither Minister Cotler nor any official of the
federal government can have any involvement in this matter.

   Thank you for expressing your concerns.

                           Yours Sincerely,

                                                Ginette Pilon
                                                Manager

The big reveal
Posted on May 19, 2014 by Philip Rose

Well, the time has come for the final big reveal. And what a reveal it
is. Perhaps it was worth waiting for.

I have reached a point where I am untouchable, unimpeachable. Who is
going to complain?

The Todds can’t, because all the details of their appalling parenting
will be openly discussed in public, because the terrible behaviour of
little Princess Snowflake will make her look more like Queen
Queer-the-pitch. And Norm won’t want his peccadilloes exposed, if you
know what I mean.

Glen Canning can’t, because he would be exposed as breaking the law on
several counts, using the mask of Anonymous to show new ‘evidence’
that was, in fact, sub judice, just for starters, and then we would
continue to the falsification of proof to frame the boys he considered
guilty, and then perhaps those naughty pictures of little girls – a
stash of which I have kept to myself, ready to be published in the
blink of an eye.

The RCMP? Don’t make me laugh. Would they seriously want all their
ineptitude exposed?

Sandy Garossino? Mother to the amphetamine-fuelled Grimes, who has
another ton of hidden dirty laundry. Alycha Reda? A mentally disturbed
fantasist. They know that I am the specialist. They know that I see it
all.

Chuck in the pornographer Tara Murphy just for good measure.

And last, and probably least, the incompetent Canadian Government.
What government is going to want the world to know that they invited
the confirmed liar Carol, the closet pedophile Glen and the online
mental case Alycha to give them sound advice?

So I am invincible. Threats from the insane Anonymous wash over me
like water off a duck’s back. No attempt to find me, to name me, to
‘out the vile creep’ have succeeded. In fact, it all just made me
laugh.

And it’s time for the big reveal. I was the blackmailer.

Didn’t any of you stop to think? How did I instantly know that Kody
was innocent? How do I know that Aydin Coban is just a hapless
scapegoat, a victim of the prevalent anti-foreigner mood that is
prevalent in that quasi-Nazi Dutch domain? How did I know every move
that Amanda Todd made, almost from cradle to grave? Didn’t it ever
occur to you that the chatlogs had to come from somebody who was
there? That intimate knowledge of the Capper Community only came from
being part of it? How did I know that the Tyler Boo messages had been
edited?

I was going to put links to Peyton here. To Casey. To Lauren.  To
Morgan. Charmander. Who are they? Girls you don’t know, girls you have
never heard of (apart from Peyton perhaps). But they are all part of
the story, all proof that, yet again, only I know where the secrets
are buried. Bianca, Shylah, Tess and Sophie, and dozens more. But hey,
I’m fed up with spoon-feeding everyone with information.

You will never know my name. Zapthosepests? Just an annoying little
traitor/hero faggot. mOd? A fool who wanted to be a moderator. perso?
Lots of lolz, an anagram of P. Rose. rOra? Another Dutch twat with a
crush on Peyton. Luvyashawty? An idiot who got burned. Google those
names. Get yourselves all of a dither. These people were just
irritating little fleas. I was top predator, and I still am.

So. There it is. Now I’ve told you. Freud said that every criminal has
a desire to be caught. That is why the likes of Canning and company
subconsciously leave trails a mile wide. Me? I’ll never be caught. I
don’t believe in that Freud stuff. Or maybe I’m the exception that
proves the rule. I always win. I am the winner.

Have a nice day!

“We are so pleased to be partnering with the Yukon government,”
Canadian Centre for Child Protection Executive Director Lianna
McDonald said. “With advancements in technology, never has there been
a more imperative time to come together to protect children and youth
from online sexual exploitation. We believe that in working together,
Yukoners and the Canadian Centre can help build stronger and safer

Hell many of the smiling bastards whom you thought were your friends have
been willingly assisting in the coverup of Public Corruption, Bank Fraud,
Tax Fraud, Securities Fraud, False Imprisonnment, Sexual Harrassment,
Pedophilia, Death Threats and MURDER for Years. Scroll through this email to
see some of the proof of my allegations. In a nutshell the greedy bastards
care about nothing but their own well being and of course their reputations.
Whearas they are trashing your reputation don't quit fight back and do your
best to remain true to your words as stated today.

In my humble opinion to save your job, stop a criminal record being created
and to make the feeding frenzy of the media and your political enemies stop
do something very simple and ethical. Just Press print on th pdf files
hereto attached and put them awy for safe keeping somewhere then
forward this email in its
entirety to the sneaky Yankee cops in St Paul who entrapped you and what the
Hell this is about and who the hell I am and the faint hearted chickenshits
will drop the charges against you like a hot potato and the Wildrose and
their very corrupt media butt buddies will clam up in a heartbeat.

Hey

As Harper sits and bullshits his cohorts in the Council of Foreign
Relations in the Big Apple today I bet he was listening to what was
happening with Obama and the IRS and Holder and his DOJ minions
in Washington.

Notice the Inspector General of the IRS Dudes within this old file?

http://www.scribd.com/doc/9092510/Chicago

Everybody and his dog knows Harper knew about my battles with the US
Treasury and Justice Depts way back when he was the boss of the
opposition in Canada's Parliament. Two simple files easily found on
the Internet cannot be argued.

Notice how old the letter and Form 211 are?

http://qslspolitics.blogspot.ca/2008/06/5-years-waiting-on-bank-fraud-payout.html

Here the Inspector Generals calling me 7 years ago?

http://www.archive.org/details/FedsUsTreasuryDeptRcmpEtc

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Office of Chief Counsel, Treasury.
Inspector General for Tax Administration, (202) 622-4068.

When Teddy bitches about polticians using the IRS to attack their
enemies because he knows it true because he helped Bush the IRS
against me when Obama was just a State Senator .

The proof was when I sent him the documents that came along with the letter
found on page 13 of this old file Teddy Baby Olson quit as Solicitor
General.

http://www.checktheevidence.com/pdf/2619437-CROSS-BORDER-txt-.pdf

Harper and every body else knows It was no coincidence that I sent the
lawyers Olson as Solicitior General, Ferguson as the co chair of the
Federal  Reserve Bank, and J Strom Thurmond Jr the youngest US
Attorney the same pile of documents on April Fools Day 2004.

The sad but terrible truth is that legions of cops, lawyers polticians
and bureaucrats in Canada and the USA knew about the US Secret Service
coming to my home after dark on April Fools Day 2003 bearing false
allegations of a presidential threat and threatening to use their
implied right to use exta ordinary rendition against me as a non
citizen less than two weeks after the needless War in Iraq began and
no WMD were ever found.

You can bet dimes to dollars i called some Yankee Inspector Generals
(starting with 202 622 4068) and reminded them that I am still alive
and kicking and reminding the world of their malicious incompetence

Veritas Vincit
David Raymond Amos
902 800 0369

PS Below you can review some emails I sent you and your Yankee cohorts
such asTeddy Baby Olson before Obama was reelected EH Harper? In truth
I would rather settle in confidence with Obama then sue the Hell out
of the CROWN and the Holy See Trust that the evil old Judge Bastarache
has known why for a very long time.

No matter either way

I agree with you sir So I attacked the RCMP bigtime as only I can

Your words

"You have the opportunity here to do something good and lets face it;
the court system in Nova Scotia was just going to rape her all over
again with indifference to her suffering and the damage this did to
her.

My daughter wasn’t bullied to death, she was disappointed to death.
Disappointed in people she thought she could trust, her school, and
the police.

She was my daughter, but she was your daughter too.

"Everything I see from you proves just one thing: that you are lying,
racist, ignorant, trash."  Paul N McCulloch

His Mother was very wise tto keep her children away from you because
strongly suspect that YOU ARE A PEDOPHILE.

Why else would you write such sick things about women and kids?

More importantly WHY DO THE CORRUPT COPS THINK YOU ARE FUNNY?

With luck I will see you soon.

"Its all about me"

Mr. Paul N McCulloch once wrote this about Remembrance Day:

P. McCulloch said...
Ah Mr. Winters, you are a total fool.

I still hate Remembrance Day, go on and hate me for that. But your
remarks are nothing but rhetorical flourish, straw man, and ad hominem
"arguments."

One thing IS certain though, I certainly don't have any idea as to the
stories of my grandfather and great-uncle. That is because YOU sir,
refuse to tell them to me. You refuse to speak to your own children
solely because they took until their mid 20s to start trying to look
you up.

Everything I see from you proves just one thing: that you are lying,
racist, ignorant, trash.

My comments refer to the useless and tired ceremonial of a bad
holiday. This does not mean, as you seem to think, that I do not
support Canadian military personnel.

Lets not forget that you do not even know a thing about me beyond the
text of my blog entry. Yet you dismiss my comments as nothing but
ignorant stoner speak.

There is still one more case out there. McKnight answered the CCLA
stating there were two cases under investigation. We still don't know
who the other person is.

They can't consider an inquiry until this second case is exposed and
dropped!

New Fredericton courthouse to close door on 'perp walks' for accused

New Fredericton courthouse to close door on 'perp walks' for accused

Building on King Street to be constructed with new system that restricts view of those being escorted inside

The controversial practice of perp walks are an opportunity for news media to capture images of a suspect in a system where cameras often aren't allowed in court.

The term appears to come from the U.S, where law enforcement officers are known to intentionally march a handcuffed suspect through a crowd of photographers and reporters.

In New Brunswick, the practice is more a by-product of the need to move suspects from the sheriff's van into the courthouse for hearings or trial.

(CBC)

But with the construction of a new justice building in Fredericton, the ability to photograph a suspect being walked into court will become a thing of the past.

Instead, suspects will be transported into the facility through what's known as a "sally port," said Judy Désalliers, spokesperson for the Department of Justice and Public Safety.

"These secure, controlled points of entry and exit are a means to keep corrections staff, sheriffs and inmates safe," Désalliers said, in an email.

It functions like a secure garage, she said, with the sheriff's vehicle driving into the space before an overhead door closes.

"They reduce opportunity for escape and mitigate risk of introduction of contraband as well as other security breaches."

Désalliers said the newer Miramichi, Saint John and Moncton courthouses already have sally ports, which she described as "a standard security feature in modern courthouses."

New courthouse in 2025

The province announced in 2021 that a new justice building would be built on King Street in Fredericton, replacing the courthouse in the Justice building on Queen Street, which was originally built as a school in 1876 before being converted to a courthouse in the 1970s.

The new courthouse is set to be finished in 2025 and will result in the closure of the Queen Street courthouse and the Burton courthouse, where Fredericton Court of King's Bench matters are currently heard.

In high-profile criminal cases, such as the trial of Matthew Raymond, who was found not criminally responsible for killing two police constables and two civilians in Fredericton in 2018, photos taken at his court appearances were the only opportunity for the public to match a face to the name.

Potential harm

Véronique Chadillon-Farinacci, an assistant professor of sociology and criminology at the University of Moncton, sees a problem with the so-called perp walk.

She said it can elicit shame and embarrassment from the accused, which can be problematic in instances where they're later found not guilty.

"If the person is declared innocent and there's a picture out there of that same person with handcuffs, maybe it would [generate] prejudice when you're looking for a job, when you meet a partner, where you want to volunteer in your community or when you have a business," she said.

With the new Fredericton courthouse being built with a sally port, Chadillon-Farinacci said she doesn't see much value lost in no longer being able to photograph suspects being led in and out.

"I'm just wondering what is the plus value? The courthouse is public, so if the public wants to see what's going on, wants to see the person, can go already.

"The perp walk doesn't have a plus value for the reparation process with the victim."

Shame can also move someone forward to redeem themselves. Maybe keep folks from doing wrong in the first place. You know , what parents should have taught you.

I guess in the history of the world, no persons tried for a crime has ever been found innocent. And even if they are innocent danny 'lower case' rugg still thinks they are guilty just by association.

Clean fuel charges in New Brunswick will be double those in N.S., N.L.

Clean fuel charges in New Brunswick will be double those in N.S., N.L.

On Friday, 8 cents will be added to prices in N.B., but only 4 cents elsewhere

Newfoundland and Labrador imposed the exact same charges in that province early Thursday morning. 

The amounts are half of what is expected to be an eight-cent charge in New Brunswick. 

Parties connected to the petroleum industry in Nova Scotia pushed for the province to follow New Brunswick's eight-cent plan, but the board found fault with that approach, according to David Roberts. 

"Nobody thought that the cost was really going to reach that amount," said Roberts, who is Nova Scotia's consumer advocate.

He argued against allowing oil companies to charge an extra eight cents to pay for federal clean-fuel standards, like in New Brunswick. The body settled on half that amount. (CBC)

He argued an eight-cent increase is well beyond expenses oil companies are likely to face and would punish drivers needlessly.

"There's not going to be any rebates going back to consumers if, as it turns out, they were paying four or five cents a litre more than the clean fuel regulations would have required to compensate suppliers," he said in an interview.

Campaign launched over cost

The New Brunswick government has been waging a major social media and advertising campaign to convince residents the upcoming eight-cent increase on gasoline and diesel is required. 

It claims the full amount is necessary to help oil companies pay for the high cost of federal clean fuel regulations that otherwise they would claw from the vulnerable retailers they supply. 

"New Brunswick has made amendments to how regulators set maximum prices because if this change was not made, small retailers in the province would have to absorb the additional cost of the federal government's clean fuel regulation," the province wrote in materials distributed last week that included rare, full front-page newspaper advertisements.

"Prices may go up by as much as eight cents per litre as a result of the clean fuel regulations." 

But Nova Scotia has decided four cents should be adequate, a ruling that will save consumers in that province about $1 million a week in clean fuel charges over what New Brunswick consumers will pay.

Clean fuel regulations took effect in Canada on July 1, but costs associated with them are to be included in formulas that set regulated prices in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick for the first time this Friday. 

The national regulations are meant to cut the "carbon intensity" of automotive fuels sold across the country.

The ads blame Ottawa entirely for the eight-cent fuel-price increase. (Robert Jones/CBC)

They are aimed at making refiners and importers of fuel lower the emission intensity of products they manufacture or resell by setting targets for those emissions and establishing financial rewards and penalties to reach them. 

The regulations do not apply to heating fuels or to petroleum products exported from Canada.

Companies can earn credits by changing practices

Refiners can comply with the new rules in different ways, including putting more ethanol in domestic gasoline, selling biodiesel products or finding ways to reduce their own refining emissions.

Companies that come in below the federal government's emissions intensity ceiling will earn credits they can sell on a market being set up for that purpose. Other producers can buy those credits if their fuels fall short.

It's also possible to earn credits through investments in things unrelated to refining, like electric-vehicle charging stations.

Oil companies have complained that making those changes will be costly and, in response, the New Brunswick and Nova Scotia governments each passed new rules to allow those costs to be passed to consumers. 

The New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board and Nova Scotia's Utilities and Review Board each held its own hearing to determine what those costs might be, but ultimately reached different conclusions.

Both regulators hired Angie Brown, with the consulting company Grant Thornton, to report on what would be fair. 

She built a model around existing clean fuel rules and credit-trading markets operating in California and estimated, based on the California experience, it would take roughly eight cents per litre added to gasoline and diesel retail prices in both provinces to compensate refiners and importers. 

Brown was questioned about the relevance of using California data to estimate costs of the new Canadian policy, but she said there were few examples to go by. 

"I acknowledge this is an imperfect solution and relying on actual data would likely get you a better outcome," said Brown during her Nova Scotia testimony. 

However, she argued if oil companies were under-compensated for new costs, they could decide to stop supplying local markets.

"I think there are some pretty significant risks if you do take the wait-and-see approach," she said.

Too early to fix costs, consultant says

Brown's modelling and recommendations went largely uncontested in New Brunswick, but not in Nova Scotia.

The Nova Scotia board hired a second expert who argued that because no one knows yet how expensive the new clean fuel rules will be, it is too early to charge consumers for them.

Vijay Muralidharan, with Calgary's R Cube Economic Consulting Inc., agreed the new regulations will add costs to oil companies, but said regulators should wait at least a couple of months to get some data on how companies actually respond to the rules.

"Any cost projection at this point would be an estimation with a relatively high degree of potential error, said Muralidharan in his evidence.

"Therefore, we recommend that the Board wait and conduct a study with the primary suppliers of fuel, once the new Clean Fuel Standard has been initiated, to understand the realized impact on their business before amending the current regulatory framework."

Reasons for the decision have not yet been issued, but its ruling to add four cents of clean fuel costs falls halfway between Grant Thornton's eight-cent recommendation and R Cube's advice of no immediate increase.

Roberts said R Cube's involvement in the Nova Scotia hearing likely had an important influence on the outcome, that was missing in New Brunswick.

"The difference is that there were no alternate scenarios put to the New Brunswick board other than the one that was included in the Grant Thornton report," said Roberts.

"The New Brunswick board accepted the [Grant Thornton] recommendation. The Nova Scotia board did not." 

Newfoundland and Labrador regulators have not held a hearing on clean fuel costs yet but were instructed by the province to implement an interim charge and earlier Thursday selected Nova Scotia's amounts as its own.

"On Friday, 8 cents will be added to prices in N.B., but only 4 cents elsewhere"

Sadly we all realize this 8 cents is just pathetic. It should be 100 cents. We all have to pull together, as Canadians, and do our fair part in reducing the global C2O pollutions that increase our climate temperatures. It's collective effort Canadians - all will have to chip in much more to stop the carbones.

If you are willing to increase your cost of living beyond what you can afford go ahead. I will not, while China and the US do not even have a carbon tax and they are the biggest generators of CO2 on the planet. If Canada did not generate one more milliliter of CO2 it would save 58 minutes of China's' output.
