Dangerous cyanobacteria lifting off the bottom of St. John River

The bacteria was responsible for the death of three dogs in 2018

A University of New Brunswick biologist is trying to get the word out about a dangerous toxin in the St. John River between Fredericton and the Mactaquac Dam.

Cyanobacteria die in the winter months but come back in small pockets on the bottom of the river as the weather warms up.

Now they cover almost 90 per cent of the river floor in some parts of the St. John River, says biologist Janice Lawrence.


She and her colleagues at the Canadian Rivers Institute sent a warning to the Department of Environment this week about a massive lift-off of the bacteria in the Fredericton area.

Once the bacteria cover a larger area, they thicken into pads that are more likely to be swept down the river with heavy currents and lifted off the bottom of the river. Once a pad of cyanobacteria is on the surface, people are more likely to come in contact with it and eventually the cyanobacteria can end up on shorelines.

"That's when there's a greater chance individuals or dogs may come in contact with it," Lawrence told Information Morning Fredericton on Thursday.

Researchers only became aware of the bacteria in the river in 2018 after three dogs died shortly after coming in contact with the water. A fourth dog died in 2019.

Cyanobacteria is different from blue-green algae and can be dangerous to humans too, especially children who play in the water and are more likely to ingest it.

The bacteria can be brown, rusty, burgundy or chalky.


"This type of bacteria produces a neurotoxin which actually causes paralysis of the muscles associated with breathing," Lawrence said. "The neurotoxin will actually cause suffocation and death if it's ingested in large enough quantities."

Lawrence said there is no evidence to suggest that man-made materials, such as fertilizer washing into the river, have any impact on the amount of cyanobacteria growth.

However, the bacteria grow better in warmer temperatures and because of global warming, larger amounts of the bacteria are being found.
Lawrence said locally researchers are hoping to figure out other things that may be helping the bacteria's growth.

"We would really like to try and see if there are factors that are enhancing the growth of this thing and in the meantime being really vigilant with individuals or animals that are going to be more susceptible to being exposed to it."

She said she knows some people are worried but suggested they just treat cyanobacteria as they would other dangers present in the environment.

"If you go out into the woods and you know there will be bears there, you just take precautions," she said. "I would take the same approach with the river with anywhere else."

The New Brunswick government has guidelines on its website for safe water activities, including always checking the water for signs of algae, being careful not to ingest river water, and showering after swimming.

Information on cyanobacteria advisories can be found on the government website.

John Grail is the real expert on blue green algae. CBC should interview him. Who needs scientists when there is the internet.

Reply to @Jeff LeBlanc: Please read the linked CBC article where this same expert mentions that algae blooms are caused by run-off...Willful ignorance is your strong suit...


John Grail 
Reply to @Richard Bend: Yeah, because I am saying let's eat our fecal matter...nice straw man...more fallacies. Can anyone even posit a legitimate argument?


John Grail 
Reply to @Jeff LeBlanc: Speaking of experts, how much research have you done? Just by looking at twonof the links in the article would prove my point. I mean I know it's hard to admit you're wrong:

"Although nutrients are naturally occurring in a lake and are needed for plant and animal life, too much phosphorus and nitrogen can cause problems by offsetting the natural balance of the lake. • These problems arise or are compounded when storm water, agricultural runoff, industrial and wastewater effluent, faulty septic systems and lawn fertilizers find their way into the lake."

ROBERT GAUVIN SERA CANDIDAT



Le député indépendant de Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou, Robert Gauvin. - Archives

L’avenir politique de Robert Gauvin se précise peu à peu. Le député indépendant n’a pas encore décidé où il se présentera lors des prochaines élections provinciales, mais confirme qu’il a récemment discuté avec les libéraux de la possibilité de porter leurs couleurs dans Baie-de-Shediac–Dieppe.
En entrevue téléphonique avec l’Acadie Nouvelle, le député de Shippagan-LamèqueMiscou ne tourne pas autour du pot lorsqu’on lui demande s’il a l’intention d’être candidat lors du prochain scrutin.
«Oui», dit-il sans hésiter le moindrement du monde. Et est-il sûr de cela? «Oui», répond-il du tac au tac.
Une retraite hâtive de la politique n’est donc plus dans les cartes. Il avait évoqué cette idée en février, peu après avoir claqué la porte du Parti progressiste-conservateur en raison de la décision de Blaine Higgs de fermer six urgences rurales la nuit.
«C’est impossible pour moi de me présenter pour Blaine Higgs.»
Ce qui n’est toujours pas clair, c’est quelles couleurs il portera lors des prochaines élections.
Robert Gauvin affirme qu’il apprécie beaucoup la liberté de parole qui vient avec son statut de député indépendant, mais qu’il n’a pas accès à beaucoup de ressources.
«T’es obligé de négocier avec les autres partis pour avoir une question (à l’Assemblée législative). Il faut que tu grattes pour avoir de l’information. Ce n’est pas viable à long terme. Il va falloir que je prenne une décision bientôt. Surtout avec l’approche imminente des élections.»
Il confie qu’il est à peu près certain qu’il ne sera pas candidat indépendant et rappelle qu’il a eu des discussions avec les libéraux et les verts à ce sujet au cours des derniers mois.
L’ex-vice-premier ministre du gouvernement Higgs affirme d’ailleurs qu’il est hors de question qu’il retourne au sein du Parti progressiste-conservateur. Le premier ministre a tout simplement brisé trop de promesses, selon lui.
UNE CANDIDATURE DANS BAIE-DE-SHEDIAC-DIEPPE?
Reste à savoir si Robert Gauvin va se représenter dans Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou, la circonscription qu’il représente depuis 2018 et où il a grandi.
«Je ne sais pas, ça se peut que je me présente ailleurs», dit-il.
Et est-il vrai – comme le veut la rumeur – qu’il est en pourparlers avec le Parti libéral pour porter ses couleurs dans l’ancienne circonscription de Brian Gallant, Baie-deShediac–Dieppe?
«Il y a eu des discussions là-dessus. Mais mon nom n’est pas signé nulle part», confirme-t-il.
Rappelons que le chef du Parti libéral, Kevin Vickers, a déjà fait savoir qu’il briguera ce siège lors de l’élection partielle qui devrait normalement avoir lieu prochainement.
Il a cependant précisé que c’est dans Miramichi qu’il se présentera lors des prochaines élections provinciales, prévues en 2022 (mais qui pourraient être déclenchées n’importe quand).
UN CHOIX DÉCHIRANT ENTRE LA PÉNINSULE ET LE SUD-EST
Robert Gauvin explique que si Baie-deShediac–Dieppe est sur son radar, c’est parce qu’elle est libre et qu’elle se trouve près de
«Avec ce qui s’est passé, c’est impossible pour moi de me présenter pour Blaine Higgs. [...] Premièrement, il m’a promis qu’il apprendrait le français. Il avait aussi promis qu’on ne toucherait pas aux hôpitaux. Et on avait promis qu’on n’abandonnerait pas les régions francophones.»
Moncton, où il habite avec son épouse et leurs deux enfants.
Il raconte que sa petite famille avait l’intention de quitter Moncton pour déménager à Shippagan après les élections de 2018, mais que ce plan est tombé à l’eau lorsque son épouse a trouvé un emploi qui lui plaisait beaucoup à Shediac.
Aujourd’hui, il ne veut pas que sa femme et ses enfants aient à se déraciner pour qu’il puisse poursuivre sa carrière politique. Mais d’un autre côté, il pense à ses collaborateurs et à ses proches dans ShippaganLamèque-Miscou. Il est donc confronté à une décision difficile.
«Je suis tellement reconnaissant de représenter les gens de Shippagan, Lamèque et Miscou. Ils ont mis mon père [l’ancien député et ministre Jean Gauvin: NDLR] sur la mappe et ont accepté de me faire confiance. Écoutez, je suis un gars qui est émotif, mais ç’a été toute une expérience. Je suis vraiment fier. Et si j’ai à décoller de là, oui ce serait déchirant. Mais ce serait un choix familial et il n’y a rien qui passe au-dessus de la famille.»
Il poursuit pour l’instant sa réflexion et dit qu’il veut prendre tout le temps dont il aura besoin pour se faire une tête. ■

Gauvin «est un très bon député», selon Jean-Claude D’Amours

  • Acadie Nouvelle

Le député libéral Jean-Claude D’Amours – qui préside le caucus de son parti à l’Assemblée – a été invité à se prononcer sur l’avenir politique de Robert Gauvin, lundi en mêlée de presse.
Un journaliste lui a demandé si les libéraux discutent présentement avec le député indépendant de ShippaganLamèque-Miscou.
«Écoutez, il y a toujours une bonne communication. Je discute avec lui sur une base régulière. C’est un très bon député. Il représente très bien les citoyens du Nouveau-Brunswick alors
nous verrons quel sera le résultat final.»
La possibilité que Robert Gauvin se joigne à un autre parti politique a été abordée lors d’une mêlée de presse avec le premier ministre, mardi à Fredericton.
L’Acadie Nouvelle lui a demandé s’il pense que Robert Gauvin a déjà réellement eu des convictions progressistes conservatrices.
«Il faudrait que vous le lui demandiez. C’est dommage, je ne souhaitais pas qu’il quitte lorsque l’on a traversé une période difficile. On fait tous face à des défis et a tous des pressions personnelles de notre circonscription et il faut y faire face. Ce n’est pas toujours agréable. [...] Il a fait son choix.», a-t-il dit. - PRN - Avec la participation du journaliste Mathieu Roy-Comeau







ROBERT GAUVIN SERA CANDIDAT

Le député indépendant de Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou, Robert Gauvin. - Archives
Little by little, Robert Gauvin's political future is taking shape. 
 
The independent MP has not yet decided where he will run in the next provincial election, 
but confirms that he recently discussed with the Liberals the possibility of wearing their colors 
in Baie-de-Shediac – Dieppe.
 
 In a telephone interview with Acadie Nouvelle, the member for Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou 
does not beat around the bush when asked if he intends to be a candidate in the next election. 
 
"Yes," he said without hesitating in the least. And is he sure about this? 
 
“Yes,” he replies tit for tat. 
 
A hasty retirement from politics is therefore no longer in the cards. He had brought up the 
idea in February, shortly after he slammed the door on the Progressive Conservative Party 
over Blaine Higgs' decision to shut down six rural emergencies overnight. 
 
"It’s impossible for me to introduce myself to Blaine Higgs."

What is still not clear is what colors he will wear in the next election.

Robert Gauvin says he values ​​the freedom of speech that comes with being an independent member of Parliament very much, but he doesn't have access to many resources.

"You have to negotiate with the other parties to get a question (in the Legislature). You have to scratch to get information. This is not sustainable in the long term. I'm going to have to make a decision soon. Especially with the looming elections looming."

He says he is fairly certain he will not be an independent candidate and recalls that he has had discussions with the Liberals and Greens about this over the past few months.


The former Deputy Prime Minister of the Higgs government says there is no way he will return to the Progressive Conservative Party. The Prime Minister has simply broken too many promises, he says.

A CANDIDATURE IN BAIE-DE-SHEDIAC-DIEPPE?


It remains to be seen whether Robert Gauvin will represent himself in Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou, the riding he has represented since 2018 and where he grew up.


“I don't know, I might show up somewhere else,” he said.

And is it true - as rumor has it - that he is in talks with the Liberal Party to wear his colors in Brian Gallant's former riding of Baie-deShediac – Dieppe?

“There have been discussions about it. But my name isn’t signed anywhere, ”he confirms.

Recall that Liberal Party leader Kevin Vickers has already indicated that he will run for the seat in the byelection that is expected to take place soon.

He said, however, that it is in Miramichi that he will run in the next provincial election, scheduled for 2022 (but which could be called at any time).


A HORRID CHOICE BETWEEN THE PENINSULA AND THE SOUTHEAST

Robert Gauvin explains that if Baie-deShediac – Dieppe is on his radar, it is because it is free and it is near

“With what happened, it's impossible for me to come forward for Blaine Higgs. [...] First, he promised me he would learn French. He also promised that we would not touch the hospitals. And we promised that we would not abandon the French-speaking regions."
Moncton, where he lives with his wife and their two children.

He says his small family intended to leave Moncton and move to Shippagan after the 2018 election, but that plan fell through when his wife found a job she liked very much in Shediac.

Today he does not want his wife and children to have to uproot themselves so that he can continue his political career. But on the other hand, he thinks of his collaborators and relatives in Shippagan-Lamèque-Miscou. He is therefore faced with a difficult decision.

“I am so grateful to represent the people of Shippagan, Lamèque and Miscou. They put my father [former deputy and minister Jean Gauvin: Editor's note] on the map and agreed to trust me. Look, I'm an emotional guy, but it's been quite an experience. I am really proud. And if I have to take off from there, yes that would be heartbreaking. But it would be a family choice and there is nothing that passes above the family."

He reflects on this for now and says he wants to take all the time he needs to get his head dirty.





Gauvin «est un très bon député», selon Jean-Claude D’Amours


Acadie Nouvelle22 Jul 2020

Liberal MP Jean-Claude D’Amours who chairs his party's caucus in the Assembly was invited to comment on Robert Gauvin's political future on Monday in a press scrum.
A journalist asked him if the Liberals are currently discussing with the independent member for ShippaganLamèque-Miscou.

“Listen, there is always good communication. I chat with him on a regular basis. He is a very good MP. He represents the citizens of New Brunswick very well so we'll see what the end result will be.”

The possibility of Robert Gauvin joining another political party was raised during a media scrum with the Pemier on Tuesday in Fredericton.

L'Acadie Nouvelle asked him if he thinks Robert Gauvin ever really held any Progressive Conservative beliefs.

“You would have to ask him. It's a shame, I didn't want him to quit when we went through a difficult time. We all face challenges and personal pressures from our riding and we have to face them. It's not always pleasant. [...] He made his choice, ”he said.

$15K Sackville council contribution to 3 concerts on lake organized by for-profit makes waves

Only boaters can attend Levee on the Lake, but organizer says she's trying to keep unemployed musicians afloat


Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon· CBC News· Posted: Jul 25, 2020 10:00 AM AT


Melanie Morgan performed for a floating, physically distanced audience at Levee on the Lake in Sackville on July 18. (Levee on the Lake/Facebook)

A recent decision by Sackville council to contribute $15,000 to three, free concerts organized by a for-profit company on the shore of Silver Lake, which are accessible only to people with boats or waterfront property, has caused some waves.

The 5-2 vote in favour of supporting the Levee on the Lake concerts July 18, Aug. 15 and Sept. 12 was an unprecedented decision to use public funds for a private venture, said Mayor John Higham.

It was also a quick decision, unlike the lengthy grant application process some annual events, such as the arts and music festival Sappyfest, have to follow each year.


And just two weeks prior, council had decided against establishing an economic recovery fund to assist local businesses struggling through the COVID-19 pandemic downturn, which has already forced some shops to close.

But Shelley Chase, co-organizer of the concerts, contends they're not for-profit, even though they're under the name of her Newfoundland-based company Garrison Hill Entertainment, and they're not trying to compete with other events or businesses.
She and Stacey Read Whittleton, of the New Brunswick Old Time Fiddle Co., were just trying to find a way to help musicians and stage crews stay afloat during COVID-19, she said.

Under the Emergency Measures Act, bars closed in March, band tours have been cancelled, and all concerts and festivals are prohibited until at least the end of the year.

And while the provincial government and the Canada Council for the Arts have provided some funding for online initiatives, that hasn't helped those who rely on live music, said Chase.

'The show must row on'

"So the guy that, you know, does the line checks … he can't do a digital streaming show," she said. "So that was the impetus. That's why we were like, 'OK, we have to try a new model. We have to figure out how to get people in front of people.'"


Drive-ins are allowed under the legislation, so they decided "the show must row on," their new slogan. They placed a stage at the water's edge off Mount View Road for their first boat-in concert.

It raised $27,000 for five bands, or about 20 musicians, and two sound production companies, who had been unemployed since March, Chase said.


About 150 people attended Levee on the Lake in Sackville on July 18, throughout the five-hour concert. Only people in boats or with waterfront property could attend. (Submitted by Shelley Chase)

It was raised through sponsors like the Atlantic Lottery Corporation, the Royal Bank — and the Town of Sackville.

The money from council was a $12,000 sponsorship, not a grant, stressed Chase — $4,000 per concert, plus $1,000 of in-kind services for each concert.

"It's basically advertising," she said, "just like they would advertise in the tourism guide."
It earned the town logo space on the event website, T-shirt, and signage, as well as mentions on radio ads and on stage, she said.


We could also shine a light on Sackville and say, 'Hey, we're doing something innovative.'
- Shelley Chase, co-organizer of Levee on the Lake
The concert also gave people something to look forward to after all the other events the town normally puts on, such as Canada Day and New Brunswick Day, were cancelled, and helped boost morale, said Chase.

About 150 people from across New Brunswick, from as far as Quispamsis and Cocagne, and even Halifax, attended between noon and 5 p.m. (She knows because they had to collect the names and contact information of everyone who attended for Public Health for contact tracing purposes in the event of an outbreak.)


Shelley Chase, co-organizer of Levee on the Lake, said its innovative model has attracted the attention of festivals from as far away as Australia. (Facebook)

"We could also shine a light on Sackville and say, 'Hey, we're doing something innovative," she said.
Levee on the Lake proves there is a way for the cultural industry to engage audiences other than just in digital formats at home, said Chase.

The model attracted the attention of the founding directors of the Stan Rogers Folk Festival, who had to cancel their Canso, N.S. event, and travelled to observe, she said. It even drew the interest of the Australia Port Fairy Folk Festival organizers, who asked for information.

Largest visitor draw gets $4K

Sappyfest, which has been operating since 2006, receives $4,000 a year from the town through the grant process, said president Jeska Grue. That represents only about three per cent of the registered non-profit's operating expenses.


The festival "definitely would be the largest visitor draw to Sackville each year," said Grue. "There's probably just over 1,000 people that come to town, which would be audience members, volunteers and artists," she said.


Jeska Grue, president of Sappyfest, said they apply every year through the town's grant program and every year they receive $4,000, 'which equals out to a third of what was awarded to this business, which presented to council and did not apply through any sort of grant process.' (CBC)

Coun. Joyce O'Neil said Sappyfest draws people right into the downtown core. "And they're here for more than just a few hours," she said. "They contribute to our restaurants and grocery stores and everything involved here in the town."

"Where the Levee on the Lake, really the only people that could be involved or take part in that was if you had a boat," said O'Neil, describing them as "a chosen few."

Many people in town don't have a boat, she said. "A lot of them don't even have a way really to get up to the lake," which is located about five kilometres north of Sackville's town hall.

'Stirring up a can of worms'

O'Neil and Coun. Andrew Black voted against supporting the concerts. She said she she was willing to provide the in-kind services because council offers that for many events, but she opposed the cash contribution.

"As this was not a non-for-profit, I felt that we were just going to be stirring up a can of worms if we went outside of what we normally do," she said. "I just didn't feel that it was the right thing to do."


"If we weren't really going to help the businesses in town at this time, I certainly didn't feel that it was right that we allow a company from outside of town to come in and receive money."

Glenn Barrington, the former owner and operator of Thunder & Lightning Pub, said that was what he found most "troubling, or puzzling or hurtful" about council's decision.

"There have been a couple of local businesses that have closed and we have been speaking with the town for about three months, trying to develop ways in which the town could help local businesses in a bit of different, more hands-on way," he said.


Glenn Barrington, former owner and operator of Thunder & Lightning Pub, said council's decision to contribute to Levee on the Lake has 'kind of caused a big problem in town amongst a lot of people, local residents and business owners alike.' (Tori Weldon/CBC)

Barrington and his wife Anne Herteis, who had moved back to Sackville after 10 years in Toronto to take over the 50-person capacity pub from a friend, made the difficult decision in May to close. They had been in business for eight years.

"We just couldn't survive three months of not being in operation" during the COVID shutdown, he said, and had no money left to manage any transition back.

They had to let their two part-time staff go and they have no idea what they're going to do now, said Barrington. "A town this size, there's not much else to do."


Business owners confused, frustrated

On June 22, the town's chief administrative officer presented council with the idea of creating an economic recovery fund, which could help other businesses avoid the same fate.

The fund could assist with COVID-related expenses, such as the purchase of personal protective equipment, capital investments or renovations, online commerce, website improvements or other options based on recommendations from council, said Jamie Burke.

"And they said, no, they didn't want to do that," said Barrington. "They didn't want to set precedent by helping local businesses, and [two weeks] later, this was precedent-setting, giving money to a for-profit business. So I think that's where most of the confusion or frustration for local business owners would come from."

Benefits to town unclear

Barrington said he understands Sackville usually has a lot of events happening throughout the summer and "people are starved for entertainment.

"So I guess that was the idea ... that [Levee on the Lake] would be a positive. But I mean, it happened outside of town on a lake. Nobody came into town, so I'm not sure what it was supposed to do for the town itself."

The mayor couldn't say whether any of businesses in town, such as the restaurants, hotel, motel or inns, benefited.


Unlike the grant process, which can take three or four months and has "rather stringent terms," looking for non-profits and service organizations to detail the economic benefit of their event to retailers and to the economy, council didn't require the concert organizers to document anything in advance, said Higham.



Sackville Mayor John Higham said a lot of business people are suffering and everybody sees a different need, and council is 'doing its best to sort through which ones are going to have a good chance of helping and which ones are not.' (Tori Weldon/CBC)

That's because the presentation to council was just 12 days before the first concert.

"Council had to make a decision very quickly whether this was something they wished to try at this point or not. And it was certainly inferred to council, I think most council thought, that if they did not agree then all of the efforts that had happened so far may well be lost," he said.

Town staff are now looking into any possible benefits, Higham said.

But the findings won't affect the town's contributions to the next two concerts, he said. The money has already been committed, following "a lot of debate."


Chase said they made the concerts free in case the Emergency Measures Act changes or the weather doesn't co-operate and they need to cancel. That way, they won't be faced with refunds or having to reschedule. (Submitted by Shelley Chase)

Deputy Mayor Ron Aiken and councillors Bill Evans, Shawn Mesheau, Mike Tower and Allison Butcher voted in favour of supporting Levee on the Lake, while Coun. Bruce Phinney was reportedly unable to participate in the July 6 online meeting because of technical issues.


Higham didn't vote. As mayor, he only votes to break a tie. He declined to share his personal opinion on the funding decision, other than to describe it as a "very unusual one in an unusual year."

"Well, once council makes an opinion, that is our opinion, and my duty is to voice that opinion. And the opinion of council was that they wanted to see it go ahead, and they wanted to give it a try, and they hoped that no one saw it as a long-term precedent."

Will reimburse expenses

Higham said council feels it put good controls over the contributions by agreeing to reimburse certain eligible expenses, such as personal protective equipment, the stage rental and portable toilet rentals, up to $4,000 for each event, plus the $1,000 in-kind services.

"So each one is contingent upon the events taking place and invoices being submitted back for reimbursement. So it's not necessarily giving them [$15,000], it's a reimbursement of actual expenditures."

Asked about the proposed economic recovery fund for businesses, Higham said council reached no consensus on that despite a detailed discussion about what kind of role the town "could or should take."

"Are we going to become a bailout partner? Like when someone's rent is up, that we pay rent and then they still quit … What kind of relationship do we want to have?"


Council asked for more consultation with the business community, he said.


Organizers are hoping for an even bigger turnout for the next Levee on the Lake, slated for Aug. 15. (Submitted by Shelley Chase)

Chase said the reason she and Read were so late going to council is they had been waiting for the provincial government to decide whether it would recognize watercrafts, such as boats, kayaks and canoes, as vehicles, under the Emergency Measures Act, and allow people to remain in them during the proposed waterfront concerts, much like people are allowed to remain in their vehicles at a drive-in.

The decision came just a few weeks before the first concert, she said.

That's also the reason the Levee on the Lake was listed under her company's name, because they didn't have enough time to create a non-profit, said Chase.

"I can tell you right now that account is now empty with all the payables going out and I didn't get anything."

Non-profit to be created

A non-profit is now "in play," she said, adding that was always the plan — "not just for this event but to also support and lobby for the protection of intangible heritage and culture in New Brunswick."


A board of directors has been selected and she's awaiting the results of a name search before filing the paperwork, she said.

Although she realizes the concerts are inaccessible to people who don't have a boat, that's not her choice, that's the law right now, she said.

"As soon as they say we can … we will fill the field with people."

In the meantime, they're looking into filming the next concerts and finding some additional funding to post the videos online.

The short videos they've posted of the first concert have already gotten thousands of views, she said, which she hopes will contribute to increased attendance, along with having more than three weeks to promote the events.

"We are hopeful that word will spread that there is a family activity that's free in Sackville, that's cultural, you know, it is very family friendly."

The next concert will feature five New Brunswick bands again and the theme will be rock and pop, said Chase.

The last one will be an East Coast Kitchen Party theme and might include bands from the Atlantic provinces.

In an age where we talk about accessibility to these type of events for everyone, our town has funded the least accessible music festival of all time. 1%ers with boats and lake front property only. Disgusting.

One has to wonder if this is yet again an example of friends/relatives of politicians currying political favour to get an advantage over others. Certainly seems the process used is quite different than the norm. Wonder why that is. Maybe someone needs to investigate the ethics of all parties involved.

Taxpayer's money should NEVER be used to support a select few who have the means to attend such an event. Let the boaters pay for the free concerts, not taxpayers! Moreover, musicians, like many others, are receiving CERB money, and should be able to make ends meet.

This is another example of the need to scrutinize for-profits and non-profit charities when it comes to the taxpayer's money.

I agree with you initial premise that this event was limited to mostly wealthy people with access to the lake, but please use proper facts. And this approval process for the money was substantially less onerous than what not-for-profits have to undertake. Sappyfest can wait months on approval

Swampfest in 2020...festival formerly known as Sappyfest .. Stay tuned.

Being angry is a choice... choose love, choose tolerance, choose
co-creating and collaborating instead of competing and kicking down .. kick up.. don't kick down Jeska

Sappyfest chair expresses dismay


2020 Sappyfest’s flying cat
Jeska Grue, chair of Sappyfest says she was “angry and disheartened” last night when she learned that town council had decided to support a series of for-profit concerts with three times the amount it contributes each year to Sappyfest.
Re-inventing itself in 2020... to be a kinder more loving festival that does not hate on our police and on our white Canadian folks but seeks unity.

Small businesses scramble for cash flow in face of COVID-19 closures

Creative solutions needed to keep cash flowing while businesses shut down for COVID-19


Tori Weldon· CBC News· Posted: Mar 18, 2020 3:58 PM AT



Glenn Barrington, owner operator of Thunder & Lightning in Sackville closed his pub temporarily on Saturday because it seemed like the safest thing to do. He has invited regulars to purchase pay-it-forward tabs that can be used when he reopens. (Tori Weldon/CBC)

With the stresses of the novel coronavirus pandemic, small business owners have the added problem of a reduced cash flow, in many cases having to re-create their business model on the fly to stay afloat.

Theatres, bars, museums, buffet restaurants and gyms are just some of the public spaces the province has advised to shut down.

Glenn Barrington, owner operator of Thunder & Lighning in Sackville, closed  his pub on Saturday because he felt it was in the best interest of his staff and patrons.



"You're questioning everything that you're touching and everything you're doing and you know all your interactions with each person," said Barrington.

But like any business, Barrington relies on sales to pay the bills. Without any money coming in, he is offering "pay-it-forward tabs."

He put out a call online for regulars to estimate what they might spend at the pub over the next few weeks, and, if possible they buy a pre-paid tab.

"When we finally reopen everybody has a prepaid tab at the bar, so everybody can finally come out and socialize and, you know, enjoy each other's company for the first time in what could be a while and we're able to stay open."

Barrington said about 30 people have participated so far, and it's amounted to enough to give him some peace of mind for at least a few weeks.

"I don't know how long we can survive"

In Fredericton, Cara Hazelton owner and head teacher at Precision Pilates, had to switch her business model overnight to stay afloat.



In the days leading up to the government-recommended shutdown, she had been following regulations by reducing the number of people in the studio at one time and doing extra cleaning.

With the measures enacted, as of Wednesday morning all of her classes have moved online. She had the basic infrastructure in place, since she has offered private lessons via video feed for a while, "but not on the scale that I'm going to have to do it now."

But Hazelton is worried that while this will keep some money coming in, it won't be enough.
"I don't know how long we can survive."

"I've been in business for 13 years and I've not seen anything like it, I mean my rent isn't going away, my phone bill isn't going away," she said.

Hazelton relies on monthly memberships, and clients who have agreed to continue paying while taking online classes.



"But of course I have a number of clients that are self-employed like me and they're having to pull out of the studio for reasons I totally understand."


Premier Blaine Higgs said Wednesday mandatory measures for people to stay home could soon follow. 1:50

'Not sure where my next sales are going be coming from'

Other brick-and-mortar retailers are shifting away from walk-in customers to putting more effort into online sales.

Derrick Dixon said closing up shop wasn't necessary to keep people away. Business dried up at Hounds of Vintage, in Sackville, once nearby Mount Allison University cancelled in-person classes.

"I just sort of decided to follow suit and kind of take the time to focus energy on online sales, since there's not as much foot traffic in town right now," said Dixon.

The door of the shop isn't locked, but customers are coming by appointment-only in order to allow enough room for social distancing inside the store.

"It's pretty stressful, first of all and foremost just because I'm not sure where my next sales are going be coming from."



Dixon said customers have been supportive, and online sales have been strong, "but it's hard to say how that momentum will sustain itself over a longer period of time."

Disaster relief 

Cara Hazelton said as a small business owner, her days aren't spent at home making crafts with her kids. She's had to reduce staff and is teaching back to back hour-long Pilates classes.

"I'm now working more hours than I've ever had for less money than I've made to try to get ends to come together through this," said Hazelton.
She's doing what she can to keep her business of 13 years running, but she also feels a responsibility to her clients.

"It's really important for all of us to maintain our activity levels and to get exercises to stay healthy because we know that reduces stress and boost our immune systems."

All of these small business owners said they recognize the importance of working together to keep people safe, but financial help will be needed.

"Disaster relief funding is the only thing I can see that's going to help in this situation because otherwise two months from now or three months from now or six months from now when we come out of this, there's not going to be a bar, pub, café, clothing studio, Pilates studio," Hazelton said.

Feds say help in on the way

Wednesday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced an $82 billion aid package to help Canadians and businesses, including income supports, wage subsidies and tax deferrals as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic.

The program aims to help Canadians pay for rent and groceries, help businesses continue to meet payroll and pay bills, and to stabilize the economy. Supports could start flowing in weeks, Trudeau said.

"Hounds of Vintage" hounds Painted Pony & Maxime Bernier, PPC Nancy Mercier in Beausejour supporters


Read about it here first!
Facebook page "Hounds of Vintage" https://www.facebook.com/houndsofvintage/

"An Open Letter from Hounds of Vintage
Hello,
I am writing to express my concern for a Meet & Greet you are hosting this Friday with People’s Party of Canada candidate from Shediac, Nancy Mercier. Both Leader of PPC Maxime Bernier and Nancy Mercier both continually share inaccurate news on the climate catastrophe, encourage their members to speak out publicly against abortion and gender identity rights, and spout dangerous nationalist rhetoric that aligns with an alt-right political agenda.
I am your neighbour, and I am Queer. When voices like these are given platforms in my community I DO NOT FEEL SAFE OR WELCOME, nor do I feel like this community is a safe place for my customers, friends and family, both biological and chosen.
I encourage you to consider the implications of hosting such events. Events like this give voices to HATRED, BIGOTRY, AND VIOLENCE, and further the oppression and discrimination of marginalized people. By hosting such political ideologies in your establishment you are saying to me I am not welcome there, or in this town in general. This is not a message I would like associated with this town or my business.
Again, I would reconsider hosting this event and strongly think about cancelling. If not, you will definitely see my LOUD QUEER VOICE at your doorsteps Friday evening.
Sincerely,
Derrick Dixon
Business Owner,
Hounds of Vintage,
Sackville, NB"
Derrick .. I don't care if you are queer but if you are anti-free speech intolerant nazi dude then we have a problem..  you're a very naughty naughty fellow for doing this targetting and bullying -- if this is your idea of "social justice" I think its unjust and anti-social.. #radical agenda
Some people in this town are so intolerant of free speech they call the police over words... its very weak behaviour... this is what universities are producing.. and this is the kind of behaviour they think is perfectly normal ... yikes!:

"Tasia Alexopoulos Good for them.
Still won't ever forgive the time the owners called the cops on a local feminist for making a complaint online about a Ladies Night event (and she was questioned by police for over an hour) but, hey, this is something!"


"The Painted Pony Bar & Grill I thought I would respond to your message on Facebook giving you the full information regarding that particular situation. The feminist that you are speaking of did not write a complaint she posted that she wanted to burn the restaurant down. A student from the University called the RCMP and told them of the message. No one from the Painted Pony contacted the RCMP ...they actually contacted us after that post was placed as we were unaware of that threat. When the police contacted us we asked them to do nothing regarding it but because of the threat they had to follow through with it. Part of the problem with social media people jump on the bandwagon and start commenting on stuff that they're not fully aware of so I just thought I would let you know that is how the situation transpired"

Tasia Alexopoulos The Painted Pony Bar & Grill Hi again. I was with the student when the police called her and I took her to the police station. I spoke with a lawyer and her parents during the ordeal. So I'm not just "jumping on the bandwagon" actually. The police told her, outright, that the Painted Pony was charging her during her questioning. They showed her screenshots of facebook comments (that did not threaten to burn the restaurant down, she stated the misogyny should burn). So, that's on the cops for lying I guess. This all transpired after students asked multiple times for the "all you can drink" Ladies Night event to be cancelled. Everyone received rude responses. It's understandable that people were angry after expressing their legitimate concerns about and event that was all about getting women drunk fast and cheap. And thank you for responding publicly, you seem to think that's not what I wanted but I commented publicly so I think it's very transparent of you to do so."

A Little Background On Tasia Here:

Derrick follows up with...

"We sincerely appreciate the response we have had from The Painted Pony Bar & Grill regarding this issue. This is how you respond to bigotry and hatred and I am so proud to live and work in a town that takes action so swiftly. Thank you ❤️

    I , and several other small business owners from the Moncton and Riverview areas will be joining the protest if this event does happen. We understand sometimes groups host unofficial gatherings without contacting the establishment. We are giving you the benefit of the doubt.


  • There is NO such event. I would NEVER host such an event

    You need to state this publicly on your Facebook page before any of this is coming down.


    Coming down???? Please stop

    derrick this is almost threatening

    I was threatening to be vocal
    Against bigotry. This is directly across the street from my shop. I’m not going to be sorry about being vocal about this.

    there we're a few letters sent this morning on behalf of other people that weren't nearly as threatening as yours. there is a difference between making your voice heard and becoming hateful and potentially violent had this event happened. please by all means stand up, scream if you have to but don't stoop to a lower level.
    I’m not stooping to any level merely expressing my right to protest against alt right political groups.

    phone call would have been nice!

    Phyllis Wheaton actions like this need to be made public in order for them to be effective. Had I phoned no one else in town would have been made aware that this was going on. The bar has responded incredibly well and should be commended for their stance.
    but wasn't their event !

    yes we know that now 🙂
    the problem i have with this derrick is that this could have been a mistake made by the people planning the event and when they posted it could have tagged the location they we're nearest. Mistakes can be made. You assumed it was them and jumped all over it not even having the information needed. Instead you publicly posted a letter, told them to stop and threatened them even when they had ZERO posts pertaining to that event on their actual page.. phones get the point across just as well. simple as that.
    not everything on facebook is REAL!!! right!
    this is not how his played down. I appreciate your support but if you disagree so strongly with me standing against these things then pls unfollow. Posting this actually made the restaurant take a stand against this whereas they wouldn’t have known otherwise. Therefore it was effective imo.




















Once rejected by 2 political parties, Chris Duffie set to take on Dominic Cardy for Liberals

Once rejected by 2 political parties, Chris Duffie set to take on Dominic Cardy for Liberals

The Liberal candidate will run in Fredericton West-Hanwell


Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Jul 28, 2020 5:00 AM AT

New Brunswick Liberals are turning to a candidate they rejected less than three years ago to take on Education Minister Dominic Cardy in his Fredericton-area riding.

Chris Duffie was nominated by acclamation to run for the Liberals in Fredericton West-Hanwell, the third time he has tried to get on the ballot.

"There's lots of good work to be done out in the riding," he said. "It's exciting and I'm looking forward to doing it."


Premier Blaine Higgs has been dropping hints that he may call an early election by this fall.

In 2017 Duffie, a Progressive Conservative supporter at the time, took the party to court, arguing it tried to prevent him from challenging incumbent PC MLA Carl Urquhart for the party nomination in the riding of Carleton-York.

Duffie had missed the deadline to file his paperwork but argued it was because the party didn't properly publicize that the nomination was coming up.

After a judge ruled that the PC party hadn't broken any of its rules, Duffie decided to run for the Liberals.

But the Liberals also rejected him, refusing to let him seek their nomination.

New leader helped

This year Duffie got the green light to run from the party's vetting process, but in a different riding.


"What has changed? They understand where I'm coming from and what I'm working towards and what I'm working for," Duffie said. "I'm working for the people."

He also said a new Liberal leader, Kevin Vickers, "goes a long way" toward him being able to run.

In 2017 the Liberals said they disqualified Duffie because, as a PC member, he had criticized then-Premier Brian Gallant and his government only months before.
On Monday, former Liberal MLA Roly MacIntyre, a member of the committee vetting candidates, offered a different reason for that decision.

He said it was because it would "generally not be appropriate for someone who runs for another party's nomination to run for the Liberal nomination in the same election."

Because Duffie has remained involved with the Liberals since 2018, "we have no further concerns in this regard," he said.


Duffie doesn't live in Fredericton West-Hanwell but says he did in the past, for about 15 years, and has "a great footprint" in the area.

Chances are 'pretty good'


Chris Duffie said he isn't nervous about taking on Education Minister Dominic Cardy in the next provincial election. (Ed Hunter/CBC)

He isn't nervous about taking on Cardy, one of the most high-profile ministers in the government of Premier Blaine Higgs. "I think my chances are pretty good or I wouldn't be doing this."

In 2018, Cardy won the riding with 31.8 percent of the vote, with Liberal Cindy Miles close behind with 27.9 percent.

"I believe my record will speak for itself, as will Mr. Duffie's," Cardy said in an emailed statement.

"Whenever the election is called, I hope we can have a conversation based on our parties' contrasting visions for the future of the people of Fredericton West-Hanwell, and for our province."
The Cardy-Duffie race won't be the first time they have crossed paths. During his 2017 court challenge, Duffie presented evidence that Higgs and Cardy had promised him a job if he stayed out of the PC nomination race.

Both the PCs and Liberals have started nominating candidates, or scheduling nominations, ahead of a possible campaign this year.

The PCs have 13 nominating conventions scheduled so far in the coming weeks, 12 for ridings they hold and one in Tracadie-Sheila, held by the Liberals.

The Liberals have already nominated four candidates, including three sitting MLAs. Duffie is the first candidate nominated in a riding held by another party.

Liberals sure diggin at the bottom of the barrel looking for cndidates outside their SANB controlled ridings. First Vickers, and now Duffie . Add to that Arsenault and Gauvin, who never really were committed to the parties they supposedly represented until their true colours showed , an election looks bleak for the Liberlas . Melanson is scrambling to prevent one happening , grasping at any straws he can get his fingers on .


Jos Allaire
Reply to @Lou Bell: Higgs will never get a majority! If he does not want to work with the other parties, which is a mark of the CONservatives, he will never get better. This is the best he can hope for. He can thank the other COR party that he is able to call himself the Premier.

Researcher wants to know if New Brunswickers are slipping back into pre-COVID ways

Emergency room visits a good indication of adherence to warnings

Daniel Dutton wonders how long it took New Brunswickers to slip back into their pre-COVID habits.
The researcher with Dalhousie University's faculty of medicine in Saint John is looking at emergency room visits as an indicator of how closely people were following public health warnings.

Dutton says his findings could help governments tweak their future warnings for maximum effectiveness. He says there's a sweet spot between instilling too much and too little fear in people.


"The idea is that in the presence of another pandemic or an additional wave of this pandemic, that we would know how to manage messaging to decrease infection rates in our province," said Dutton, an associate professor in the department of community health and epidemiology.

Dutton is one of several New Brunswick researchers to receive money for COVID-19-related projects.

In March, the New Brunswick Innovation Foundation, in partnership with the New Brunswick Health Research Foundation (NBHRF), launched a COVID-19 Research Fund and invited researchers to apply — which they did in droves.

They received 60 applications and requests for $2.3 million in funding, which was more money than they had available.

That's when the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency stepped in to provide more money. In total, 27 projects across the province have been approved — to the tune of $846,707.

Dutton's project, entitled "The half-life of public health messages on infection control behaviour in the general public" was one of the successful candidates.


"I want to know how long people stay focused on what we, as public health practitioners, wish they would do with respect to stopping the spread of COVID-19," he said.
"You see these stories of people having large gatherings and whenever that happens somebody from public health, or the premier, will say, 'Please don't do that. That's not what we're supposed to be doing.' And we don't really have a way to judge how well people are sticking to the rules."

Dutton said the polarized minorities have been vocal about whether they're willing to wear masks.

"But that doesn't really help us because we want to know whether or not we should change our public health messaging to make it stronger or perhaps more effective or perhaps we should mix it up and do some research into what it is about masks that are stopping people from wearing them."

Dutton said the best way is through a survey, but surveys are expensive and rely on accurate self-reporting. He said there are other ways of predicting how well people are adhering to the warnings, including emergency department visits.

"The idea is that if people are avoiding the emergency room for what we would call low-acuity problems … maybe we would consider that to be successful public health messaging."


Dutton said there was a "large drop" in emergency room visits at the beginning of the pandemic — at least anecdotally.

He said there were reported cases of people staying home with serious medical conditions when they really should have gone to the emergency room.

Fast forward a couple of months and Premier Blaine Higgs was publicly chastising party-goers who were gathering in large groups, contrary to public health warnings that were still in place.
Dutton said those examples "underline exactly what it is we're trying to measure. We don't want to wait for those things to happen and then scold people, because it's not going to work. They've already gone to the party."

He plans to collect emergency room statistics from Horizon Health Network. When patients arrive at the ER, they're given a triage score based on the severity of their symptoms.

Dutton suspects the stats will show a quick drop in acuity early on and a slow return to normal levels as the number of cases in the province dropped off.


He will compare the fluctuations in acuity with the messages that were being delivered by health officials at the time. He hopes that will help determine what messages were being delivered effectively and which ones may have led to an over-reaction by patients.

 
New Brunswickers seemed to have followed public health warnings to avoid going to hospital emergency rooms early on in the pandemic. Researcher Daniel Dutton said that behaviour is a good indicator of the public's overall willingness to heed warnings. (Martin Trainor/CBC)

One interesting example, said Dutton, would be to look at what officials were saying that led people with serious health problems to stay away from the ER.

Knowing the effect that certain messages had on people's behaviours can help improve future messaging, he said.

​​Dutton suspects that New Brunswickers — thanks to relatively few cases in the province — slipped quite quickly back into their old ways.

"We've seen it from previous research on other infectious diseases, things like AIDS, is that if there's too much catastrophic messaging, people sort of give up, you know. They say, 'Oh well, it's going to happen to me anyway. I'm going to get COVID-19 anyway, so who cares?'

"So we need to figure out the sweet spot in between causing people to be on vigilant behaviour for their own health, and not giving up in the face of overwhelming negative messaging."

In other words the government will continue to double down out the outdated "Salesforcing" of "messaging" and access to deliberately limited and poorly communicated data and guidelines rather than transparency and plain truth, in order to instill the "appropriate amount of fear."

Good God please help us all. They're telling us what they're doing in no uncertain terms. This is the changeover from "representative democracy" to "blind allegiance to authoirty." We are being handled and our nanny knows best but few of us actually believe that. Game over.

If you have money and are in relatively good health look at investing in your own health equipment. It might take less than you think. The doctor of the future will be a person who follows algorithms in order to avoid lawsuits. Anybody can follow an algorithm and solve many of their own future medical problems through proactive preventative maintenance.

It might be cheaper and easier than you think if you're healthy and take care of yourself. Who wants to ever visit a hospital again with this "messaging?"

I get a kick on how much taxpayer's money is spent on studies. In the end they don't change anything except the bank account of the person doing the study.


SarahRose Werner 
Reply to @Gerry Ferguson: Generally speaking, I agree that a lot more money is spent on studies than the amount of change they produce. However, this is not necessarily the *taxpayer's* money. New Brunswick Innovation Foundation is a private foundation that uses venture capital to fund research. Studies are also often funded by charitable foundations. Furthermore, not all of the money stays in the researcher's pocket. Some is put back into the economy as the researcher pays for study-related expenses. Some may be used to hire research assistants, thus creating jobs.  


Koffi Babone
Reply to @Gerry Ferguson:
Where to start......
With regards to Covid-19, scientific studies publish findings that are peer reviewed. Public health agencies across the world will formulate recommendations/guidelines based on those studies. It then falls on the governments to either listen and follow/support those recommendations or to ignore them.
We have two very good examples of what happens when the advice is ignored or mocked.
We are lucky that in Canada, both federal and provincial governments fully support public health recommendations, they are after all the experts in that field. In NB, Dr Russel consults with the Public Health Agency of Canada 3 times a week.
Keep in mind that until the findings are published and peer reviewed, everything else is just a hypothesis or opinion (like that letter from over 200 scientists asking the WHO to declare SARS CoV-2 as being transmitted via aerosol). If those 200 or so scientists have proof, they need to publish the results so that others can look at the data.
So your statement that studies don't change anything is only true with regards to two countries. Incidentally, UNISaúde, a coalition of entities representing more than one million health workers in Brazil is accusing the Brazilian president of crimes against humanity......

U.S military personnel in St. John's not isolating, as confusion swirls around exemption rules

U.S military personnel in St. John's not isolating, as confusion swirls around exemption rules

Military members told Delta staff they were given OK to go out by CBSA


CBC News· Posted: Jul 28, 2020 2:13 PM NT



American military members enter the Delta Hotel in St. John's. They offered no comment when asked by a CBC reporter whether they were isolating. (Mark Quinn/CBC)

The manager of a St. John's hotel says American military members have been leaving the hotel, telling staff they were given the OK to do so by the Canada Border Services Agency.

Delta Hotel general manager Heather McKinnon said American service members staying at the downtown hotel have been leaving the premises and causing COVID-19 concerns in the community.

People took to social media Monday night, saying they had spotted members who, according to them, were not self-isolating. The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary said it received a report on Monday night about the Americans; however, officers weren't able to locate them.


"We've become aware that they are not self-isolating in the hotel," McKinnon told CBC News on Tuesday. "They're allowed to be together as a group, but we've become aware that they are leaving the hotel but that they have been advised they can."
If there’s any doubt that members of the U.S. military are here. Here they are at the Delta in St.John’s minutes ago .

McKinnon said the military members told Delta staff the CBSA said they're allowed to be out in public while in the country.

That runs contrary to provincial rules on visitors from outside of Atlantic Canada.
Even people travelling to Newfoundland and Labrador for essential work are required to isolate when they are not working.

CBC News has asked CBSA for clarification on this case. The military personnel declined comment while walking into the Delta on Tuesday.

Health Minister John Haggie said he heard the stories about American military members being in a downtown restaurant on Monday night, and his department is looking into it.


Haggie said military flights don't come through airport terminals, but rather use fixed-base operators — or FBOs — at airports.

"They have been made perfectly clearly aware that the instructions to be given to these military personnel is that they are to get in a bus or in a conveyance and go from the FBO to the hotel where they take room service and reverse the process the following morning," Haggie said.

There is an issue of federal versus provincial jurisdictions, and which sets of rules and exemptions should apply. The service members would fall under the federal Quarantine Act, and Haggie said he isn't aware of any exemptions that would allow them to wine and dine while in town on a stopover.
American military members make up a significant portion of the Delta's business. McKinnon said they account for about six per cent of total stays, and bring in around $1.8 million in annual revenue — which works out to around 8,000 room-nights.

While inside the hotel, all guests must wear face covering in public areas. McKinnon said there haven't been any issues with the Americans on those rules.

Reply to @Patrick Kennedy: We have multiple submarines although as we don't have any that can hop onto land and cruise around looking for Americans that was clearly a failure to plan.

Our navy is actually working quite hard to keep American leisure craft outside of Canadians waters. Instead of ridiculing our Navy you might try wondering what they have been doing lately

They risk possible infection with the closer encounters with those who have crossed over every day for us. It's not the kind of risk they thought they were signing on for and they don't get as much press as the army.

We have a current shortfall in enlistment so if you are young enough why not try it so at the very least you'd know the lengths that are gone to at any time for us.

Kis Brink 
Reply to @Gordon Wheaton: The article fairly clearly states that CBSA is trying to get clarification on if they were given an atypical exemption from isolation versus the standard one where they are a bit of a bubble which can travel to work and work and then return to the hotel.

So until we know for sure that the Federal govt didn't give a strange exemption they might be following the rules.

Not like they are the strong point in pandemic response late to close borders. not having any system to monitor the health of those actually exempt like truckers, and then theirs aviation.

So it's entirely plausible the Federal Govt was okay with putting Canadians at risk so let's find out if it's blame the govt time or blame the US Army.

Reply to @Jason Dawe (JD): Military is Federal so while they shouldn't have the authority it's much like all provinces can do about airplanes with no physical distancing is ask the airlines to explain who can decline.

It would take the Federal Govt saying stop using the middle seat and every other row or you aren't up so the ten or so positives on flights inbound to BC wouldn't create new positives and which didn't reach too many to bring up in the daily briefing.

There are quite a lot of places where the provinces have been powerless to do more than comment that they don't think something should be happening

Nova Scotia Shooter Behind The Scenes with Paul Palango a former senior editor at The Globe and Mail and author of three books on the RCMP, the most recent being Dispersing the Fog, Inside the Secret World of Ottawa and the RCMP. His work on the Nova Scotia massacre has been published in MacLeans and the Halifax Examiner.





 “An epic failure”: The first duty of police is to preserve life; through the Nova Scotia massacre, the RCMP saved no one

The RCMP has claimed it did its best in trying to deal with the Nova Scotia mass killer on the weekend of April 18 and 19, but a reconstruction of events by the Halifax Examiner strongly suggests that the police force made no attempt to save lives by confronting the gunman or stopping his spree at any point.

“Public safety and preservation of life are the primary duties of any peace officer,” said a former high ranking RCMP executive officer who asked for anonymity out of fear of retaliation by current and former law enforcement officials who are vigilant about any criticism of policing by those in the field. “As far as I can tell, the RCMP did nothing in Nova Scotia to save a life. They weren’t ready. It is embarrassing to me. The entire thing was an epic failure.”

Based upon interviews with other current and former police officers, witnesses, and law enforcement, and on emergency services transcripts, it seems clear that there was a collapse of the policing function on that weekend.

At no point in the two-day rampage did the RCMP get in front of the killer, who the Examiner identifies as GW. It also seems apparent that some Mounties, many of whom were called in from distant locales, were stunningly unaware of the geography and landmarks in the general area as the RCMP tried to keep up with GW.

Sources within the RCMP say a major problem was that communications between various RCMP units was never co-ordinated. “Everyone was on their own channels,” the source said. “Nothing was synchronized. They could have gone to a single channel and brought in the municipal cops as well, but for some reason they didn’t. It was like no one was in charge.”

RCMP Chief Supt. Chris Leather said in the days after the incident, that the RCMP was responding to a “dynamic and fluid” situation. “The fact that this individual had a uniform and a police car at his disposal certainly speaks to it not being a random act,” he said.

RCMP Support Services Officer Darren Campbell

In the days and weeks after the shootings, RCMP spokespersons repeatedly portrayed the gunman as a clever, psychotic criminal who had conceived what was essentially a brilliant plan to dupe police and evade capture. This subtly changed in an interview with the CBC earlier this month when Supt. Darren Campbell said: “There’s been no evidence that he was pre-planning [the mass shooting].”

As chaotic as the situation might have been for the RCMP, it is evident that the force failed to contain the shooter on the evening of April 18 at the initial multiple crime scenes in the Portapique Beach area of Central Nova Scotia. Thirteen people were murdered that night in which might well be called the first massacre. As has already been acknowledged, the RCMP did not set up roadblocks and perimeters around the area, even though it knew within minutes of arriving at the scene that the shooter was armed and likely on the loose in a replica Mountie police vehicle. 

On April 19, the second massacre took place. Unlike the night before, the RCMP knew beforehand who the suspect was, how he was dressed, and what kind of vehicle he was driving, a replica RCMP vehicle. The RCMP had sightings of the killer that morning, but again inexplicably did not seal off roads and highways and try to contain him after numerous 911 calls about sightings. Nine more people, including RCMP constable Heidi Stevenson, were murdered that day.

Preservation of human life is generally accepted to be the ultimate duty of all law enforcement officers in critical incident management. In basic training all Canadian police officers are taught to understand that when confronted with a life-threatening situation, the “priority of life” is demonstrated in this order: hostages, innocent by-standers, police/first responders, and suspects.

The RCMP has said that officers who responded to the original incident employed a tactic known as Immediate Action Rapid Deployment (IARD). With such training, as well-described on-line, the first responding officers are authorized to be proactive and disrupt a crime before criminals become “active shooters.” 

“We are taught to move past injured victims and attack the situation,” said one current RCMP member. “If the suspect is in a building, we use a T formation. If he’s outdoors, it’s a diamond. You typically need four officers, but, if need be, you can do it with fewer. The point is to neutralize the suspect as quickly as possible and prevent further injuries or deaths.”

In spite of what the RCMP has publicly stated, law enforcement sources and others have told the Examiner that the first RCMP responders did not actively intervene after arriving at the scene. After discovering a considerable number of slain victims around a property and on or near the road, the officers retreated to a point near the top of Portapique Beach Road where they congregated to wait for reinforcements.

Several RCMP and law enforcement sources say that a corporal from a nearby detachment who was the initial supervisor on the scene froze in place to the distress of other Mounties. The corporal later ran into nearby woods and turned off their flashlight and hid. That officer continues to be off work on stress leave.

Some veteran Mounties say that there were likely a number of factors which caused the first Mounties on the scene to hesitate. 

“It could have been inexperience. Maybe there was no backup. And then there’s always that Canada Labour Code thing,” said one long time Mountie.

He was referring to a $550,000 fine imposed on the RCMP in January 2018 for failing to properly arm and train its members after three Mounties were murdered and two injured in a shooting rampage in Moncton on June 4, 2014. Since the Labor Code decision, all RCMP members on patrol are trained in the use assault weapons. Every Mountie carries a Colt C8 rifle with a 30-shot magazine in their patrol cars. The high-powered gun is considered to be an upgrade to the American made AR-15.

“They were in a bad situation,” said the Mountie. ”Their duty is to save lives, but whoever the supervisor was, he or she might have been thinking that they could be criminally sanctioned and go to jail if they send officers into a life threatening situation. At the very least, it could be the end of their career. That’s how the Labour Code fine is interpreted, even if the police are supposed to be exempt from it in the performance of their duties.”

Others have suggested that the RCMP called what has become to be known in policing circles as a FIDO—  Fuck it, drive on. What that means is that police deliberately avoid dangerous situations and delay or wait until everything has calmed down before making a move. 

Within an hour or so after the first call came in, Staff-Sergeant Allan Carroll took over as the officer-in-charge at a command centre set up in the RCMP detachment at Bible Hill. Sources say that Carroll did not attend the scene and it is not known precisely what he did or didn’t do.

It is noteworthy that his son, Jordan, an RCMP constable, was the second officer to arrive at the scene in Portapique. A knowledgeable source told the Examiner that Staff-Sgt. Carroll retired from the force three weeks ago. A party was held on June 27.  

As the Mounties maintained their static position at Portapique Beach Road, tensions were rising. “It was a shit show,” one Mountie said. 

Some of the frustrated Mounties wanted to follow their training, move forward and attack the situation. A RCMP tactical officer from Cole Harbour who was called to the scene became frustrated with the fact the Mounties were not attempting to move from their fixed position, save lives and possibly confront the killer. When that Mountie and another said they were going to do it on their own, an unknown supervisor told them: “If you go down there this will be your last shift in the RCMP.” The Mounties held their position.

The RCMP has refused to release its own communications from that night or transcripts of them, but interviews with and transcripts of communications from the nearby Truro Police Department and Emergency Medical Services along with other already noted sources helps fill in some of the gaps and paint a picture of the chaos inside the RCMP.

In the days after the shootings, the RCMP gave three different versions of how long it took the force to respond to the first 911 call which was at 10:01 p.m. First it said officers were on the scene in 12 minutes. On April 21, the RCMP said the first call came in at 10:30 p.m. The next day this was corrected to the call coming in at 10:01 p.m with the first Mounties arriving on the scene at 10:36 p.m. 

A local man was driving out of Portapique Beach Road when the killer in his replica cruiser approached him from the other direction and shot at him in his vehicle, wounding him in the arm. 

According to search warrant documents obtained by the Examiner, that man told investigators he drove up the road and met the cordon of Mounties waiting there. Police sources tell us that the man told Mounties that a man he believed was GW was in a marked police car had shot at him. This occurred sometime after 10:26 p.m. and before 10:35 p.m. when the vehicle was seen leaving the area driving across a field to Brown Loop which is about 200 metres to the east of where the police were positioned.

That man’s report is the first time, as far as we know, that the RCMP were aware that GW was in a recognizable police vehicle.

At or around 10:45 p.m., the killer and his vehicle later are identified as passing by a residence on his way to Debert where he arrived at 11:12 p.m. He parked his car behind a welding shop. He stayed there for six hours.

Until midnight, the fires raged but the RCMP held back the fire department. At least two people were hiding in the woods. One was Clinton Ellison, who had found his brother, Corrie, dead on the road and was stalked by the killer who was using a flashlight to try to find Ellison. The other was GW’s girlfriend, who later said she escaped being handcuffed in the back of another former police vehicle and ran into the woods where she reportedly stayed until 6:30 a.m.


The RCMP put out its first alert to the public on Twitter at 11:32 p.m. It read: “#RCMPNS remains on scene in #Portapique. This is an active shooter situation. Residents in the area, stay inside your homes & lock your doors. Call 911 if there is anyone on your property. You may not see the police but we are there with you #Portapique.” 

The RCMP did not alert the two municipal police forces on either side of Portapique, in Truro, 20 minutes away, and Amherst, 45 minutes away. This is significant because in both police forces most of the members have tactical training, a necessity in small departments where any officer could find themselves in a difficult incident without much or any notice. Both police forces had considerable numbers of officers primed and ready to go.

On the Truro Police communications log, at midnight the department received a call from someone at Colchester Regional Hospital reporting that they have a gunshot victim from Portapique and advised that the hospital is in lockdown.  

Truro Police Sgt. Rick Hickox called the RCMP six minutes later at 12:06 a.m. looking for an update.

The RCMP returned his call 49 minutes later at 12:55 a.m. to inform the Truro police of an active shooter in Portapique, although GW was long gone from that area.

Three minutes later at 12:58 a.m.: “RCMP dispatch calls advises shooter is associated to a former police car possibly with a decal on it.” 

Nine minutes later at 1:07 a.m. the RCMP issued a BOLO (Be on the lookout) for GW as an active shooter and suspect. The RCMP “ID’s some vehicles and girlfriend who is unaccounted for.”

At 1:07 a.m., therefore, the RCMP clearly knew the identity of the suspect and that he had killed many people. The RCMP was not sure about how many because the fires were still raging. Yet the RCMP advised police departments outside the scene to look for this incredibly dangerous person but did not themselves or ask anyone to put up roadblocks and lock down the area. Most importantly, in its tweets the RCMP fudged the markings on the car. The local man who was shot by GW told them it was a police car. The RCMP described it as a former police car with a Canada decal on it. Why the obfuscation?

Informed sources close to the investigation say it was around this time that that an Amherst Police officer was told that the RCMP did not need that force’s assistance because the Mounties had deemed the situation to be a murder-suicide and that the shooter was dead. Amherst Police Chief Dwayne Pike denied in an interview that such a conversation took place. When told about the chief’s denial, the original source persisted in his claim. “Municipal forces like Amherst depend upon the RCMP for lab services,” the source said. “They don’t want to say anything to piss off the Mounties because they will cut them off from the labs. That would cost the locals a lot of money. The RCMP plays rough and the local forces know it, so they keep their mouths shut.”

Chief Pike said recently in an email response from the Examiner that his force was still putting together a timeline of the force’s involvement that weekend. 

Back at Portapique Beach, the RCMP continued its investigations at the multiple crime sites. It obtained a search warrant for the killer’s properties at 200 and 287 Portapique Beach Road and 136 Orchard Beach Drive. In the search warrants it cited human remains as one of the things they were looking for.

The RCMP remained silent until 4:12 a.m., when it told Truro police about a Ford F150 truck associated to the suspect. Two minutes later at 4:14 a.m. it updated Truro about another vehicle. Ten minutes later at 4:24 a.m., the RCMP provides a list of vehicles the killer may be driving and noted:  “… he is still not in custody.” The RCMP didn’t know where the killer was. They knew he had killed about a dozen people by that time (some victims had not yet been located). But the force did not send out a provincial alert or set up roadblocks around the greater area.

In its communications the RCMP seemed to be suggesting that it was searching for GW, dead or alive, but it still has not done anything proactive to preserve life by obstructing his possible paths, if he were still alive. 

In the overnight hours the RCMP says it was busy clearing the various crime scenes in the Portapique Beach area. It is not clear how many Mounties were at the scene or where they came from, although some eventually were called in from New Brunswick. The RCMP has not been clear about any of this, stating that at times there were 30 members there and eventually “100 resources,” whatever that entails. Transfixed as it seemed to be with the nightmarish crime scenes, the force seemed to have put the notion that the killer was alive out of his collective thoughts. No one seems to know what he was doing in Debert. 

Some police sources have suggested that GW was perhaps in touch with the RCMP during this period. It is known that a RCMP crisis negotiator was on the scene in Portapique, but Supt. Campbell denied to the CBC in an unpublished interview that the force had any contact with the killer during the overnight period.

While the RCMP was putting out BOLOs as perhaps a hedge, by its actions over the next few hours, the force seemed to be convinced that shooter was no longer a threat. By 6:30 a.m. many of the Mounties on the scene at Portapique, including the staff-sergeant from Bible Hill, were allowed to go home after a long, gruelling night. 

Informed sources say that a new incident commander was scheduled to arrive at the scene at 10 a.m., possibly from “the Valley.”


In the interim, the RCMP put out a tweet at 8:02 a.m. reiterating that a shooter was still active in the Portapique area. This made the Truro police anxious. Corporal Ed Cormier immediately called the RCMP at 8:03 a.m. looking for an update. Four minutes later, at 8:07 a.m., the RCMP responded with an updated BOLO, elaborating on their tweet:  “[GW] arrestable for homicide. Advises of a fully marked RCMP car Ford Taurus. Could be anywhere in the province. Last seen loading firearms in vehicle. Vehicle photo will be sent when available.”

This information reportedly came from the killer’s girlfriend, who apparently came out of the woods at 6:30 a.m. However, this BOLO provided not much more information than the one at 12:58 a.m., five and a half hours earlier. It added the firearms, but any reader had to presume that GW had firearms in the earlier BOLO since he was described as a “shooter.”

Still, while telling other police agencies that GW “could be anywhere in the province,” so far as the public was told, GW was still in Portapique.

And the RCMP did not engage the local municipal police forces in Truro, Amherst, the New Glasgow area or even Halifax, an hour away. There are more than 900 Mounties employed in Nova Scotia in various capacities. Only a relative few of them were called in. The Mounties, however, did enlist the help of RCMP members in New Brunswick from Moncton and as far away as Fredericton, a three-hour drive at speed from Portapique.

Some expert police observers have said in interviews that the attempts to locate the killer and pursue him would have benefited from the use of a helicopter but the RCMP does not employ a helicopter in Nova Scotia. No helicopter was employed during the overnight hours, as well, to conduct a search.

“The RCMP has nine helicopters across the country, but as far as I know has never had one in Nova Scotia,” said a former executive level RCMP officer in an interview. “In renewing its contracts with the RCMP, it appears that the government of Nova Scotia has taken the position that a helicopter is an unneeded frill and dispensed with the idea. That was a big mistake. The questionable leadership of the RCMP and the questionable leadership of the government of Nova Scotia has failed to appreciate the changing dynamics of policing. The force needed a helicopter that weekend and didn’t have one. 

Twenty-two people died. Some of those lives could have been saved.”

Until 2001, the RCMP had an agreement with the provincial Department of Natural Resources, which commands four helicopters. In return, informed sources say, the DNR was allowed to use the RCMP’s forensic laboratories. The RCMP denied that use in 2001, so the DNR stopped allowing the RCMP the use of the helicopters.

In the intervening 19 years, whenever the RCMP required the use of a helicopter it either negotiated with the armed forces or it paid private rental companies for one.

The relaxed attitude of the RCMP in the early morning hours of Sunday was evidenced in a video shot by CBC at the RCMP command centre at the firehall in Great Village. Emergency response team members stand in a circle chatting away. A bored Mountie wielding a C8 rifle paces back and forth. Another Mountie helps local fire-fighters roll up some hose.

After this, things began to get even hairier.

An RCMP map shows GW’s route from 123 Ventura Drive in Debert to 2328 Hunter Road, Wentworth. Insets of still images taken from different videos show GW’s replica police car at 5:43am in Debert and passing a driveway on Hunter Road in Wentworth at 6:29am.

At 5:45 a.m. surveillance cameras record GW leaving the Debert Industrial Park as he began the 40-kilometre drive to Hunter Road in Wentworth. He is believed to have arrived at the house of Sean McLeod and Alanna Jenkins at around 6:30 a.m. McLeod and Jenkins were apparently murdered in their beds. McLeod’s two dogs were also killed. GW killed neighbour Tom Bagley who had come to investigate.

For some unknown reason, the killer lingered at the McLeod property for three hours. At some point he set the house on fire and left at 9:35 a.m. according to a security camera. It is not yet known what he was doing while he lingered there.

At 9:43 a.m., the Truro police were notified by the RCMP about “a dead woman in Wentworth on the road. Advises RCMP car was seen in the area and there was a loud bang.” The killer had shot retiree Lillian Hyslop who was out for her morning walk, unaware that he was in the area because an alert has just been issued as she left the house.

The RCMP flooded the area and thought it had the killer contained, even though callers to 911 had told them that he had been seen heading eastbound on Highway 4 toward Truro. Thinking it had the killer trapped, the RCMP again failed to mobilize in an attempt to find, stop or capture him. As it had in Portapique, the RCMP did not call for help from other forces, did not set up roadblocks, call for a helicopter or track, contain or attack GW. 

Instead of calling in local police for help, the Mounties relied on their own, some from far away who were entirely unfamiliar with the territory and couldn’t find roads. One couldn’t find the RCMP building in Bible Hill just outside Truro. Another indicated to a Truro police dispatcher that he didn’t realize that there was a hospital in Truro.

Further evidence of the communications disconnect between Mounties and their commanders and between Mounties and other police forces was how messages about what was going on in Wentworth were disseminated. 

At 9:46 a.m., a RCMP officer at the Colchester Regional Hospital told Truro Constable Cormier that the force believed it had the killer pinned down in Wentworth. Two minutes later Truro Constable Thomas Whidden reported that that he had heard informally from the RCMP that the killer was headed to Truro. The RCMP was not formally engaging the Truro Police.

Then, at 10 a.m., RCMP Chief Supt. Chris Leather, the number two Mountie in the province and the chief of criminal operations, further added to the ball of confusion. He sent an e-mail to Truro Police Chief Dave McNeil that the RCMP had the shooter pinned down in Wentworth. But that wasn’t true. What Leather later told reporters is that he had meant to Onslow, 30 kilometres to the south of Wentworth, an 8-minute or so drive west of Truro.  

By now the killer was heading back to the Debert area where he had spent the overnight parked behind a garage in the industrial park. Despite the fact that 13 people had been murdered, just west of there in Portapique, there were still no roadblocks or impediments to his travel.

At 9:48 a.m., GW visited the house of a couple he knew who lived on the 2900 block of Highway 4, in Debert, just north of the intersection with Highway 104.  The couple hid under their bed, a gun cocked and ready. The killer backed off and continued moving south. GW left without harming them, and the couple called 911.


At 10:04 a.m. the RCMP sent out a tweet asking people to avoid the Hidden Hilltop Campground in Glenholme, which is near the couple’s home. But GW wasn’t there. He had moved on to Plains Road in Debert, where he killed Heather O’Brien and Kristen Beaton, two Victorian Order of Nurses who were driving in separate cars. The RCMP later said that the killer pulled them over and later still corrected that statement, saying he hadn’t. The force has yet not explained what really happened.

Near Onslow, the killer passed a Mountie who was driving the other way. The unnamed Mountie thinking that he had just seen the suspect is reported to have turned around to pursue him, but lost sight of the killer. There was no RCMP back up in the area.

Although the killer had been spotted,  the RCMP did not issue a province wide alert or take any action to impede or stop the killer with the ultimate intention of preserving life. 

The killer then headed to Truro where he drove down Walker, Esplanade, and Willow streets between 10:16 and 10:19 a.m. and then headed south out of town toward Brookfield. The Truro police were entirely unaware that he had done that until video surfaced later that week.

Meanwhile, the RCMP finally had negotiated the use of a helicopter from the Department of Natural Resources. A source close to the DNR said that department was told that the helicopter would be used to scout the Portapique Beach Road fire scenes to ensure that the fires had not spread into the woods. The helicopter with a Mountie on board took off for Portapique. The pilot was never instructed to hunt for the killer in his readily identifiable mock RCMP cruiser — it was the only one on the road in the area that featured a push bar or ram package over its front bumper.


Back in the Truro area, more than 12 hours since the first alarm went in at Portapique Beach Road, the RCMP were still playing catch-up. At 10:21 a.m., the force tweeted that GW was in the Central Onslow and Debert area “in a vehicle that may resemble what appears to be an RCMP vehicle & may be wearing what appears to be an RCMP uniform.” By then, he was long gone, but the tweet or whatever else the RCMP was saying in its internal communications may well have provoked one of the strangest known incidents that day.

Around 10:30 a.m., two Mounties emerged from a black Hyundai Elantra and started firing toward an emergency services worker outside the Onslow Belmont Fire Brigade Fire Hall. The Mounties shot up the fire hall and just missed hitting people inside while causing considerable damage to equipment. One of the Mounties went into the fire hall for a moment and then the two left in the Hyundai.

The killer was well on the other side of Truro by then.

Five minutes earlier, at 10:25 a.m., in a well-known security video, the killer pulled into the lot of a business in Millbrook, got out of the car and changed out of a RCMP jacket into a yellow vest. He got back in the car and headed south toward Shubenacadie where two RCMP constables, Chad Morrison and Heidi Stevenson were driving in separate vehicles to meet up near the intersection of Highway 2 and 224.

Ten minutes after changing into the vest, the killer pulled up beside Const. Morrison who was waiting by the side of the road for Const. Stevenson. He fired into the car, striking Morrison in one hand and the other arm.

Morrison apparently radioed for help, but the media have not been privy to that communication. 

A Nova Scotia EHS tape, widely circulating on the Internet, indicates that at around the time shortly after Morrison was shot and paramedics responded. In the conversation with a dispatcher, a paramedic described a “member” (the common term for a Mountie) who was shot in the foot. The paramedic says he can’t transport the patient to hospital yet because he first had to recover a gun the officer had left in the woods and lock his police car. The RCMP has not confirmed any of this.

At 10:48 a.m., the killer slammed his vehicle into that of Const. Stevenson at the traffic circle connecting highways 2 and 224. The RCMP says Stevenson “engaged” the killer, but witnesses say he shot at her through the windshield and then dragged her out of her damaged vehicle. He then executed her with multiple shots as she lay on the pavement. He set his and Stevenson’s vehicles on fire. When a passerby, Joey Webber, stopped to help, he was killed. The killer then dragged his guns and paraphernalia to Webber’s Chevy Tracker and drove off.

After the shootings were reported, the RCMP still did not try to get in front of the killer and stop him.

Between 11:06 and 11:23 a.m. the killer was less than a kilometre from the traffic circle where Stevenson was killed, now at the home of Gina Goulet, a fellow denturist. He shot her and her dog, changed clothes and stole her car, a Mazda 3.

The RCMP, meanwhile, was now looking for GW in Joey Webber’s Chev Tracker, issuing a Tweet to that effect at 11:24 a.m. 

Unfortunately, for the killer, Goulet’s vehicles gas tank may have been empty. That seems a likely reason why he pulled into the Irving Station at Endfield; or, perhaps, he felt the gathering police presence around him. Instead of blocking off roads, the RCMP was going to businesses such as Sobeys and asking them to close their doors.

It was around this time that Halifax Police became engaged and began to set up a roadblock at exit 5A on Highway 102 heading into Halifax, one exit south of the airport. The Halifax Examiner previously reported another curiosity about the lookout for the killer in that Halifax Police Chief Dan Kinsella apparently ordered his officers to attempt to capture the killer and not shoot him.

Whatever the case, suspect was in his vehicle at the Irving station when a Mountie, reportedly a canine officer, who was stopped to fill up his vehicle recognized him. A brief confrontation ensued and the shooter was killed.

Meanwhile, the Department of Natural Resources helicopter was done with its reconnaissance of the Portapique crime scenes and was returning to Halifax. In the distance, the black smoke from the two burning cars at the traffic circle. Sources say they pilot was never engaged to try and hunt down the killer.

Obviously operating on a different frequency than other Mounties, the pilot was informed that the suspect was down at the Irving Station at Exit 7 on the 102.

As he landed in a field near the station to let off the Mountie who was with him, the pilot received a transmission from a gruff sounding RCMP Officer who identified himself as being “the RCMP Command Post.”

What the Mountie had to tell him was that the suspect had been brought down at the Irving Station in Enfield “at Exit 11.”

Exit 11, as it turns out, is in Stewiacke, approximately 43 kilometres to the north.
It was a fitting end to an epic policing failure.

>
>     “The executive power of the federal Government is vested in the

>     “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

>
> 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

Inquiry into N.S. mass shooting to go ahead, public safety minister says

'Canadians deserve answers to how such a tragedy could occur,' Bill Blair says


Brooklyn Currie, Anjuli Patil· CBC News· Posted: Jul 28, 2020 1:39 PM AT



Public Safety Minister Bill Blair on Tuesday announced a public inquiry into the Nova Scotia mass shooting amid mounting pressure from fellow MPs, families of victims, legal experts and the public who were upset that a review panel had been announced last week instead. (Jon Collicott/CBC)

After days of criticism about the decision to launch a review panel into the Nova Scotia mass shooting, the federal government has announced that the tragedy will instead be the subject of a public inquiry.

"Canadians deserve answers to how such a tragedy could occur," Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair said in a statement on Tuesday, announcing the inquiry amid mounting pressure from fellow MPs, families of victims, legal experts and the public who were upset after a review panel was announced last week.

"This situation requires that our governments work diligently with all those affected by this tragedy to bring forward the critical answers, and to ensure an event such as this will never happen again."



Twenty-two people died in the April 18-19 shootings, which began in the small community of Portapique, N.S.

A public inquiry will allow the power to summon witnesses and require them to:
  • Give evidence, orally or in writing, and on oath or, if they are persons entitled to affirm in civil matters, on solemn affirmation.
  • Produce such documents and things as the commissioners deem requisite to the full investigation of the matters into which they are appointed to examine.
The same people who had been involved with the highly criticized review panel will take part in the public inquiry, Blair said.

J. Michael MacDonald, Anne McLellan and Leanne Fitch agreed to assist in the public inquiry and will serve as commissioners.

'I'm sorry,' premier tells families

In an interview with CBC Nova Scotia News at Six on Tuesday, Premier Stephen McNeil apologized to the families of victims. He said his intent was not to cause families additional harm, but to get them answers with the panel review.

In an interview with CBC Nova Scotia anchor Tom Murphy, Premier Stephen McNeil said families are getting what they wanted, but he maintained the province needed federal support to move forward with a public inquiry. 14:45

"Clearly, they did not agree with that. They felt that the inquiry was the only way that they would achieve the answers they were looking for. We've delivered that today, and for them I would say I'm sorry if the process created more anguish for you."

Relief and happiness

Robert Pineo, the lawyer representing 21 of the 22 families in a class-action lawsuit against the killer's estate, and whose firm is handling the class-action suit against the province and the RCMP, said he's glad the two levels of government had a change of heart.

"It is unfortunate the families had to go through the turmoil of the last three days worrying about this, but at the end of the day, the government did the right thing," Pineo said.

He said he's only spoken with one of the families since the news broke, but he said they're glad a public inquiry is moving forward.

"There's a lot of relief and a lot of happiness right now."

Families had organized a march for Wednesday and Pineo said they still plan to do that.



"The family member that I spoke with said he would like to see the march go on as ... a show of support to the families and to the processes coming," Pineo said. "The families are going to be there tomorrow and so will some of their supporters."

Earlier on Tuesday, Nova Scotia Justice Minister Mark Furey said he would support a public inquiry into the April mass shooting if the federal government agreed.

His comments came following days of criticism about the decision to instead appoint a review panel.

"If the federal MPs agree that their government should conduct a joint public inquiry rather than a review, they should take that up with the federal minister and their federal colleagues," Furey said in a release on Tuesday afternoon.

The joint review panel was announced last Thursday by the federal and Nova Scotia governments.
Unlike a public inquiry, witnesses cannot be subpoenaed and will not testify under oath. All documents and information collected as part of the review will be kept confidential, and it's not clear whether any hearings will be held in public.



On Tuesday, several Nova Scotia Liberal members of Parliament called for a full public inquiry into the killings, despite their names being attached to a letter welcoming the joint review when it was announced.

'Deeply upset' by decision

Kody Blois, the MP for Kings-Hants, sent out a letter on the day of the announcement on behalf of all the Liberal MPs in the province.

"The Nova Scotia Federal Liberal Caucus welcomes the announcement of a joint-review into the Nova Scotia mass shooting," the letter said.

But in a statement on Facebook Tuesday morning, Sean Fraser, the MP for Central Nova and the parliamentary secretary to the minister of finance, said he was "deeply upset" by the decision to move forward with a review instead of a public inquiry.

"If ever there was a moment to listen to Nova Scotians and reconsider the path being taken, it is now," Fraser said in his post.



Sean Fraser
on Tuesday
Statement in Support of Public Inquiry into Mass Shootings
It is obvious that a comprehensive public inquiry into the mass shootings that left our Province reeling this Spring is necessary to provide any meaningful opportunity for the affected families to experience healing, and for our communities to feel any meaningful sense of justice. If there is not trust in the process, there will not be trust in its outcome.
Upon learning the process would include a review, as opposed to a comprehensive public inquiry, I was immediately disappointed. Shortly after becoming aware of the details of the process, I saw my name was included on a letter that welcomed the decision. I became aware of the proposed letter shortly before its publication and I expressed my disappointment with the decision and my preference for a public process. I have come to understand that the letter was sent as a result of a serious, albeit innocent, misunderstanding of my views. I should have been more explicit and unequivocal in my opposition to being included in that letter, and I remain responsible for that.
For the sake of expressing my own views with clarity, I am deeply upset by the decision to move forward with something less than a comprehensive public inquiry that provides answers to our province and solace to the families who now live every day in our communities without their loved ones.
There are some positive features of the announced review that should be carried into a more fulsome inquiry. The members of the panel selected for the review are of the highest quality and their credentials are beyond reproach. I also find extraordinary value in different aspects of the Terms of Reference given to the panel, specifically including the requirement that the panel consider the aspects of this particular massacre that relate to misogyny and gender-based violence. However, the planned process lacks the essential ingredient of public trust, which will ensure the process does not succeed if no action is taken.
I have been dedicating myself over the past few days to advocate for a reconsideration of the current approach and will continue to do so until we have a process that provides a level of comfort to those most affected by the tragedy. I have spoken with many of my colleagues, including direct conversations with the Prime Minister, to express my strong desire for a public process that provides confidence to the families affected by this tragedy that every question they have, no matter how difficult, will be answered by the time the inquiry reaches its conclusion.
This decision mattered greatly to me and to my constituents and it is essential that the approach taken be revisited to provide whatever powers to the Panel that are necessary in order to engender trust in the process amongst both the families and the general public.
During the course of our emergency response to the ongoing pandemic, I’ve heard from many members of my community that were more impressed with our willingness to listen and change course on policy decisions in response to feedback from our communities than they were with any particular policy we have advanced.
Nova Scotians are asking us to listen once again. The families who lost loved ones are telling us that the process, as it stands, will not provide the healing they so desperately need, and our communities are telling us that the process must take place in public to allow us the opportunity to better understand the circumstances leading to the deadliest massacre in our Province’s history.
If ever there was a moment to listen to Nova Scotians and reconsider the path being taken, it is now.
My hope is that we can find a path forward that will provide the victims, their families, and the public with a process they can trust, so that we can help facilitate the healing process our Province so deeply needs and obviously deserves.
Sincerely,
Sean Fraser
Member of Parliament for Central Nova

Demands for 'greater response'

Darren Fisher, MP for Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, also said in a tweet Tuesday he's been "advocating" for a public inquiry.

"I believe that the decision to move forward with a joint-review was made with good intentions; however, the gravity of this tragedy demands a greater response," the tweet said.

Halifax MP Andy Fillmore, who is parliamentary secretary for infrastructure, tweeted Tuesday that a public inquiry is "the best way forward" to get answers and closure for the families of the victims.

CBC News reached out to Fraser and Fisher, but neither was available for comment Tuesday.

Cape Breton-C​​​​​anso MP Mike Kelloway issued his own statement Tuesday afternoon saying that since Thursday he's been hearing from constituents expressing their disappointment in the government's plan.





"We know that the families of the victims are crying for a public inquiry and in my opinion that is what they deserve."

Kelloway said it's the government's duty "to uphold the values" of Nova Scotians and "honour the families of the victims by moving forward with a full public inquiry and not a joint review."

On Monday, the MP for Cumberland-Colchester, Lenore Zann, said she was upset she was not consulted about the independent review. Many of the families of the victims live in her riding.

Relatives of victims have been calling for a public inquiry into the massacre for months. On Monday, two rallies in Halifax and Bridgewater did the same.

Karen Casey, Nova Scotia's finance minister and the MLA for Colechester North, a district that includes Portapique, said she knows her constituents have questions, and she supports whatever process gets them the information they deserve.

Casey said she wasn't concerned about the path the two levels of government announced last week, but she is concerned that people get what they need as she said the community is still "very much in the grieving process."





Some want answers more quickly, some want things done more publicly, but everyone has questions, and Casey said she wants those questions answered in a way that provides confidence to the public.

"Whatever the process is, it will be traumatic for them and it will be difficult for them ... they need to be confident they're getting the answers they're looking for."

'Flawed start' 

Nova Scotia's lone Conservative MP, Chris d'Entremont, says word of the inquiry "is welcome" but also "raises a number of serious questions."

Some of those questions, he said, include why a public inquiry wasn't called on Friday, why families have to fight their government for transparency and answers they deserve, and "how can Nova Scotians trust this process after its flawed start?"

"Nova Scotians deserve a government they can trust, who will stand up for their priorities," d'Entremont said in a statement. "It's clear that the Trudeau Liberals have let them down again. Conservatives will continue to fight for the answers you deserve."

Earlier Tuesday, Nova Scotia Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Houston had called for the premier to call a public inquiry himself without waiting for the federal government.

Houston said a review panel instead of a public inquiry was "a slap in the face to the victims' families and all Nova Scotians."

Celebrating the inquiry: ‘This was because of the families, our determination, our drive, and the Nova Scotians, the Bluenosers’ halifaxexaminer.ca/province-house
by @ydentremont






Celebrating the inquiry: ‘This was because of the families, our determination, our drive, and the Nova Scotians, the Bluenosers’

Tuesday’s announcement that there will be a full public inquiry into April’s mass shooting had nothing to do with politicians and everything to do with the victims’ families and Nova Scotians.

That was the message Nick Beaton delivered to reporters during a celebration event in downtown Halifax on Wednesday morning.

Initially planned as a protest march from the Halifax Ferry Terminal to Province House, it shifted to a victory celebration march after the news broke late yesterday that the review was being dumped in favour of the inquiry the families had been demanding all along.

“I want to start off by saying this was not because of the government, right from Lenore Zann right to the top of Bill Blair. This was because of the families, our determination, our drive, and the Nova Scotians, the Bluenosers,” Beaton told reporters. 

Beaton’s pregnant wife Kristen Beaton was killed on April 19 by the gunman the Halifax Examiner refers to as GW. Beaton said while politicians are “pretty quick to pat themselves on the back,” he wondered where they’ve been for the last three months. 

He was alluding to the Nova Scotia Liberal MPs who yesterday publicly broke ranks with their government to state they were disappointed in a review and were advocating for an inquiry. This came after significant and widespread public protest and condemnation since the review was announced last Thursday. 

In a Tuesday afternoon statement, Nova Scotia Justice Minister Mark Furey said the province would support a joint public inquiry if the federal government came onboard and called on the participation and testimony of key federal agencies. 

By day’s end, federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair announced there would be a public inquiry.

“The ones saying that they wanted it, they wanted it? They could’ve called for it, they could’ve stuck their neck out and said they wanted it, but they didn’t until … it hit the fan,” Beaton said, adding the victims’ families were grateful to Nova Scotians and Canadians who stood behind them and rallied with them as they fought for a public inquiry.

“It just proves that the little man can have a voice if you band together and stay peaceful and respectful, that you can make a change even in our government that together we can conquer,” he said.

Several families who lost loved ones during the mass shooting showed up on Wednesday morning to express their gratitude to Nova Scotians and Canadians for their support. 

Dan Jenkins lost his daughter Alanna Jenkins and son-in-law Sean McLeod during the gunman’s rampage. He said learning yesterday that there would be a public inquiry was the best feeling he’s had in more than three months.

Clearly emotional, Jenkins told reporters his family was grateful for the outpouring of support from Nova Scotians who marched in protests, signed petitions and sent letters. He said he doesn’t think the reversal of course would’ve happened without the public outcry. 

“It’s nice to be able to get out and thank them for a change and tell them how much we appreciate their support,” he said.

gratitude to Nova Scotians for supporting the victims’ families and their call for a public inquiry.

Charlene Bagley lost her father Tom Bagley during the tragedy. She showed up to celebrate the announcement that a joint inquiry will in fact be the route taken by governments. She said her primary motivation was to thank everyone in the province across the country for their support.
In an interview, she described the last week as “a nightmare.”

“Yesterday when we heard the news, that was probably the best I have felt in the last three months. It still doesn’t change the outcome of what happened, but at least now the families hopefully can get some of the answers that they need,” Bagley said. 

She described it as “not one bit of an exaggeration” to say the families have been further traumatized since last week’s announcement that the provincial and federal governments would be pursuing a joint review instead of a joint public inquiry. 

“When we heard that we may not get the answers we need, it just kind of put our grief to the forefront again and it’s really hard to move on if you don’t know the whole story,” she said. 

“I don’t think we would have gotten it (public inquiry) if it wasn’t for the whole province behind us … I’m hoping we’ll get the answers now, and I think it’s a long road ahead but at least we’re on the right track.”

Nova Scotia NDP leader Gary Burrill told reporters he commended the provincial government for reversing its decision, calling it the “honourable thing” to do. 

“There has been a broad based public outcry of a sort that we don’t usually see,” Burrill said. 
“It would have been a deep error of judgment on the government’s part to deny it, and in my judgment they have done the honourable thing to recognize the mistake that they made last week in announcing something other than a public inquiry and to rectify the mistake as they did yesterday afternoon.”

Nova Scotia PC leader Tim Houston described the journey to securing a public inquiry as “an odd route.” He told reporters the goal now should be ensuring the inquiry has the proper scope, gets the needed results, and that any recommendations that come from it are followed through. He said he was surprised that no one from the Liberal government had shown up to Wednesday morning’s event.

“I don’t know what to read into that, but I think it was an opportunity for the government to really sincerely show the families that they are behind this inquiry and that they do support this inquiry and that they are apologetic for the additional emotions of the past week,” Houston said.

“They decided to pass on that opportunity and I think that’s a missed opportunity for them.”

There will be a public inquiry into April’s mass shooting in Nova Scotia after all.

Following significant public protest, statements from multiple Liberal MPs in opposition to an independent review, and a challenge from Nova Scotia Justice Minister Mark Furey, federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair announced his government is launching a public inquiry.

“We have heard calls from families, survivors, advocates, and Nova Scotia Members of Parliament for more transparency,” Blair said in a news release Tuesday afternoon.
The Government of Canada is now proceeding with a full Public Inquiry, under the authority of the Inquiries Act R.S.C., 1985, into the tragedy that occurred on April 18th and 19th. This will include the power to summon witnesses, and require them to:
a) give evidence, orally or in writing, and on oath or, if they are persons entitled to affirm in civil matters on solemn affirmation; and
b) produce such documents and things as the commissioners deem requisite to the full investigation of the matters into which they are appointed to examine.
Through these additional authorities, it is our sincere hope that the terrible tragedy of April 18th and 19th will be fully examined and that all relevant facts and evidence will be made public.
The Honourable J. Michael MacDonald, the Honourable Anne McLellan, and Leanne Fitch have once again agreed to assist in this Public Inquiry and will serve as Commissioners.
The about-face follows Furey’s statement earlier on Tuesday afternoon, challenging the federal government to make the call.

“I have heard from family members and many Nova Scotians who are opposed to a joint review of the tragic events of April 18 and 19 and would prefer a joint public inquiry,” Furey said in a news release Tuesday.

“Now, a number of federal MPs have come out against their own government’s decision to participate in a joint review.”

Nova Scotia Liberal MPs Lenore Zann, Darren Fisher, Sean Fraser, Mike Kelloway and Andy Fillmore had all come out against the government’s original decision after their names appeared on a letter in support of the review.

“If the federal MPs agree that their government should conduct a joint public inquiry rather than a review, they should take that up with the federal minister and their federal colleagues,” Furey said in the release.

“If the federal government agrees to a joint public inquiry where federal agencies including the RCMP, Canada Border Services Agency, Criminal Intelligence Services Canada, Canadian Firearms Registry and the Public Alert Ready System will participate and offer testimony, I will support that and so will our government.”

Last Thursday, Furey and federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair announced an independent review into the April 18-19 mass killings that began in Portapique, N.S.:
The panel will be chaired by former Nova Scotia Courts Chief Justice Michael MacDonald. The other two members are former Liberal cabinet member Anne McLellan and Leanne Fitch, the former chief of police in Fredericton. All three are well-respected, but it’s an open question as to whether they can gain public trust.
That’s because unlike a public inquiry, the review panel will not have the power to compel testimony, nor will it have subpoena power. The government ministers say, however, that all government institutions (i.e., the RCMP, but others as well) have agreed to “participate fully,” and if those government institutions don’t cooperate with the review panel, the panel “may notify the public about the lack of cooperation.”
In the event that the panel needs information from non-government institutions (such as telephone companies, banks, etc), the panel does not have the power to ask the court for production orders. But the government will assist the panel in those matters.
The Terms of Reference for the review panel calls its work to be “guided by restorative principles in order to do no further harm, be trauma informed and be attentive to the needs and impacts upon those most directly affected and harmed.” In short, the desire is to not further harm victims and family of victims through the process of the review. To that end, the testimony of those witnesses will not be public.
But documents and testimony from government institutions will also not be public, although the panel has the ability to refer to such documents and testimony in its published reports.
The panel is charged with producing an interim report on February 28, 2021, and a final report on August 31, 2021 — 15 months after the event.
The decision was immediately condemned by families of the victims, women’s groups and Nova Scotians in general — with protests on Monday and a march on Province House planned for Wednesday.

Province could strike out on its own

The provincial government had the power to launch its own public inquiry under the Public Inquiries Act, as highlighted in statements by both of Nova Scotia’s opposition leaders on Tuesday.

“It’s never too late to do the right thing,” Progressive Conservative leader Tim Houston said in a news release.

“So I am urging the Premier not to wait for the participation of the Federal Government and to call this inquiry today. This would allow for testimony to be heard under oath and would grant the power to compel witness testimony.”


Nova Scotia NDP leader Gary Burrill said the Liberals were continuing to fail Nova Scotians with a lack of leadership in response to the mass shooting.

“To say today, only after a major public outcry, that they are willing to support a public inquiry if the federal government agrees to it, is a further abdication of the leadership that is needed,” Burrill said in a news release.

“The Liberal government’s continued resistance to the public inquiry that has been called for by legal experts, organizations addressing domestic violence, the public, and the families of those whose lives were lost, is both perplexing and disappointing. It is within the power of the provincial government to call a public inquiry; they should do so without delay.”

In defending the decision to hold a review, not an inquiry, during Friday’s COVID-19 briefing, Premier Stephen McNeil strongly hinted in an answer to CBC reporter Yvonne Colbert that the federal government wouldn’t agree to fully participate in a public inquiry.

“The reality is, we all know right, currently, today, we have a public inquiry going on in this province that the federal government is not sitting at the table,” he said, referring to the Desmond Fatality Inquiry.

“We want them at the table … They need to be part of the solutions so we can answer these questions for these families.”

Canadian Press reporter Michael Tutton followed up, asking McNeil whether he was saying the federal government wouldn’t agree to fully participate in a public inquiry. He didn’t answer that question directly.

“We currently have an inquiry going on in our province today where that is a fact. That often gets missed when people believe that the only way to get to the solution is an inquiry,” he said.

Furey’s statement on Tuesday puts the ball in the federal government’s court.

Opposition growing among Liberal MPs

Fraser (Central Nova) publicly stated he only learned his name was being added to a July 23 letter from the Nova Scotia Federal Liberal Caucus just before it went out. That letter, written on King’s-Hants MP Kody Blois’ letterhead, notes that the caucus “welcomes the joint-review” into the mass shooting and “applauds the inclusion” of a feminist analysis. 

In an emailed statement sent in response to a request from the Halifax Examiner, Fraser said when he learned the process would be a review, he was “immediately disappointed.” He added that shortly after becoming aware of the details of the review, he saw his name included on the letter welcoming the decision. He said he only became aware of the letter shortly before its publication. 

“I expressed my disappointment with the decision and my preference for a public process. I have come to understand that the letter was sent as a result of a serious, albeit innocent, misunderstanding of my views,” Fraser’s statement said. 

“I should have been more explicit and unequivocal in my opposition to being included in that letter, and I remain responsible for that.”

Fraser said it’s “obvious” that a comprehensive public inquiry is necessary for the affected families to heal and for communities to feel “any meaningful sense of justice.”

“If there is not trust in the process, there will not be trust in its outcome,” he said. 

Fraser continued that he is “deeply upset” by the decision to move forward with something less than a comprehensive public inquiry. He said while the members of the panel selected for the review are “of the highest quality,” the planned process lacks the “essential ingredient of public trust.”

He said he’s spoken with many colleagues, including direct conversations with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, to express his “strong desire” for a public process that provides confidence to the families affected by this tragedy “that every question they have, no matter how difficult, will be answered by the time the inquiry reaches its conclusion.”

Fraser’s statement also notes that “if ever there was a moment to listen to Nova Scotians and reconsider the path being taken, it is now.”

On Tuesday morning, Fisher (Dartmouth-Cole Harbour) said on Twitter that he’s heard from — and spoken with — many people regarding last week’s joint review announcement. He said although he’s pleased the federal and provincial governments agreed to review the tragedy and subsequent response, he has been advocating for a public inquiry. 

“I believe that the decision to move forward with a joint-review was made with good intentions; however, the gravity of this tragedy demands a greater response,” Fisher wrote. 

“I’ve made my voice heard to our Government’s decision-makers on this file, and I remain hopeful that greater authority will be given to this matter, with the ultimate goal being the announcement of a Public Inquiry.”

Early Tuesday morning, Zann told CBC News that she wasn’t consulted by the federal or provincial governments before last week’s decision of an independent review was announced, despite making repeated requests for a public inquiry since May.  

On Tuesday morning, the Halifax Examiner reached out to all Nova Scotia Liberal MPs (with the exception of Zann and Fisher) to ask if they were also advocating for a public inquiry, or if they believed the joint review was sufficient. 

At this point, Fraser is the only one of the eight MPs to reply with a statement. 

South Shore-St. Margarets MP Bernadette Jordan’s press secretary replied, indicating that the query would be best answered by Bill Blair, federal Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness. 

On Tuesday afternoon, Liberal MP Mike Kelloway (Cape Breton-Canso) added his name to the list of Nova Scotia Liberals opposing the review.

“As a government, I feel as though as though it is our duty to uphold the values of Nova Scotian’s [sic] and honour the families of the victims by moving forward with a full public inquiry not a joint-review,” he wrote in a statement posted to Twitter.

“I have expressed my thoughts to Minister Blair.”

Andy Fillmore (Halifax) chimed in on Twitter just after Kelloway: “My number one priority has always been to get the victims’ families the answers they have been asking for and the closure they deserve,” he wrote.

“Listening to them, it is evident to me that the best way forward is a full public inquiry.”

Cumberland-Colchester MP not consulted about independent review of N.S. mass killing decision

Liberal MP Lenore Zann has been calling for a public inquiry since May

Cassidy Chisholm· CBC News· Posted: Jul 28, 2020 6:00 AM AT

The member of parliament for Cumberland-Colchester says she wasn't consulted by the federal or provincial governments before last week's announcement of an independent review of April's mass shooting— despite submitting multiple requests for a public inquiry.

Lenore Zann, the MP for Cumberland-Colchester, said Monday she was upset she wasn't consulted since she has been requesting a public inquiry since May.

"From the very beginning, my constituents and I have been saying that we would like a public inquiry into what has now become known as the largest mass shooting in Canadian history," Zann said.





"People are disappointed. Most of the families of the victims live here and they are really actually outraged and they are demanding a public inquiry."
Families of victims, women's groups, legal experts and Canadian senators have been calling for an inquiry but on July 23, the provincial and federal governments announced an independent review consisting of a three-person panel.

Justice Minister Mark Furey said last week the province reviewed all options, including a public inquiry, but the review process provided the "most timely opportunity" for the earliest responses and setting up a panel.

The review process doesn't include some of the powers granted in a public inquiry, such as information provided under oath and the ability to subpoena.

The same day it was announced, Zann signed her name to a letter issued by the federal Liberal caucus welcoming the independent review and its inclusion of a "feminist analysis."

"Nova Scotians and all Canadians rightly deserve answers to questions about the tragedy on April 18-19. Nova Scotia Liberal M.P.s have asked Minister [Bill] Blair to ensure a robust process was established to provide answers to the victim's families, the circumstances that led to the shooting and the response from the RCMP in the [lead-up], during, and following this tragedy," the letter said.





Zann said although she welcomes the independent review, she still hasn't stopped advocating for a public inquiry.

"That doesn't negate the fact that I have been requesting and still am requesting a public inquiry and I would like to see them either morph [the review] into a public inquiry or reverse their decision and just announce a public inquiry," she said.
Zann said she has sent multiple requests to federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair — once on May 30, once on July 3 and again on July 27 — calling for a public inquiry. She said she hopes the provincial and federal governments are listening and that a public inquiry is considered.

"I think my constituents and the families of the victims, who have been traumatized, I think we deserve that," she said.

"We deserve answers in an open and transparent manner and so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and I'm doing everything I can behind the scenes to try and make that happen."

Trudeau fellowships are, I believe, awarded to the top candidates who
apply for PhD funding to SSHRC each year (which most institutions make
mandatory.) I say that just to say it is a research award more than a
political affiliation, although certainly raises questions whether
it’s ever appropriate to name research fellowships after political
figures. And they def try to network with the researchers etc.

Protesters decry ‘shocking and paternalistic’ decision to hold review,
not inquiry into Nova Scotia mass shooting
July 27, 2020 By Yvette d'Entremont

Gathered at Victoria Park in Halifax at noon Monday for a general
strike intended to draw attention to demands for a public inquiry into
the Nova Scotia mass killing.

The event was slated to run from noon to 12:22, a 22-minute strike to
pay homage to the 22 people whose lives were taken during the weekend
of April 18-19.

“This is something that all sectors of society have asked for,” Martha
Paynter, founder and coordinator of Women’s Wellness Within, told
reporters before the event started.

Her organization works for reproductive justice, prison abolition and
health equity. It was one of several feminist community activist and
advocacy groups behind Monday’s ‘Strike back: Demand an inquiry’
event."

‘Strike back: Demand an inquiry’ event." is a registered nurse
providing abortion and postpartum care. She is a Doctoral Candidate in
Nursing at Dalhousie University. She is the founder and coordinator of
Women’s Wellness Within, a non-profit organization supporting
criminalized women and transgender/nonbinary individuals in the
perinatal period in carceral institutions and the community. She works
 to advance reproductive justice through advocacy, collaboration and
nursing scholarship.

For her nursing advocacy and research, Martha has received numerous
awards including  the 2018 Rising Star Award from the Canadian
Association of Perinatal and Women’s Health Nurses, the 2018 Health
Advocacy Award from the Council of the College of Registered Nurses of
Nova Scotia, the 2018 3M National Student Fellowship, and in 2017, the
Senate of Canada Sesquicentennial Medal for volunteer service to the
country.

Martha Paynter was driving through New Brunswick this weekend and
texted me that she saw a billboard for the Airbnb in the old
Dorchester Jail.

Among the attractions listed on the website are that it was the site
of the last double hanging in New Brunswick (more on that in a
moment), with a highlight being that guests can stay in the former
cells.

Ray Adlington named to CBA Board of Directors

    May 2, 2017

Halifax partner Ray Adlington was recently named to the CBA Board of Directors.

In their announcement yesterday the CBA advised that the board would
come into effect September 1st, 2017.

    After collecting extensive input over the past two years, we know
that CBA members believe it’s important for the organization to have a
Board of Directors that reflects the diversity of the legal
profession, including a mix of practice types, experience, skills,
geography and more.
    Our new Board of Directors exemplifies this principle.

The board is composed from one member from each province as well as
the CBA President.

Congratulations Ray on this well deserved appointment.

>>> 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?

>>>
>>> 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

>>> Healthcare Corp. v. Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, 2016 FCA 215,

>>> 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

>>> 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

>>> of those paragraphs are dedicated to an incident that occurred in 2006

>>> 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

>>> Defendant to respond. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to
>>> determine the causes of action the Plaintiff is attempting to advance.

Threat against Burke taken seriously

By STEPHEN LLEWELLYN
dgleg@nb.aibn.com
Published Thursday May 24th, 2007
Appeared on page A1
An RCMP security detail has been guarding Justice Minister and
Attorney General T.J. Burke because of threats made against him
recently.

Burke, the Liberal MLA for Fredericton-Fort Nashwaaksis, wouldn't
explain the nature of the threats.

"I have had a particular individual or individuals who have made
specific overtures about causing harm towards me," he told reporters
Wednesday.

"The RCMP has provided security to me recently by accompanying me to a
couple of public functions where the individual is known to reside or
have family members in the area," said Burke. "It is nice to have some
added protection and that added comfort."

The RCMP provides protection to the premier and MLAs with its VIP security unit.

Burke didn't say when the threat was made but it's believed to have
been in recent weeks.

"When a threat is posed to you and it is a credible threat, you have
to be cautious about where you go and who you are around," he said.
"But again, I am more concerned about my family as opposed to my own
personal safety."

Burke said he doesn't feel any differently and he has not changed his
pattern of activity.

"It doesn't bother me one bit," he said. "It makes my wife feel awful nervous."

Burke served in an elite American military unit before becoming a
lawyer and going into politics in New Brunswick.

"(I) have taken my own precautions and what I have to do to ensure my
family's safety," he said. "I am a very cautious person in general due
to my background and training.

"I am comfortable with defending myself or my family if it ever had to happen."

Burke said it is not uncommon for politicians to have security concerns.

"We do live unfortunately in an age and in a society now where threats
have to be taken pretty seriously," he said.

Since the terrorism attacks in the United States on Sept. 11, 2001,
security in New Brunswick has been
beefed up.

Metal detectors were recently installed in the legislature and all
visitors are screened.

The position of attorney general is often referred to as the
province's "top cop."

Burke said sometimes people do not differentiate between his role as
the manager of the justice system and the individual who actually
prosecutes them.

"With the job sometimes comes threats," he said. "I have had numerous
threats since Day 1 in office."

Burke said he hopes his First Nations heritage has nothing to do with it.

"I think it is more of an issue where people get fixated on a matter
and they believe you are personally responsible for assigning them
their punishment or their sanction," he said.

Is the threat from someone who was recently incarcerated?

"I probably shouldn't answer that," he replied.

Reporters asked when the threat would be over.

"I don't think a threat ever passes once it has been made," said
Burke. "You have to consider the credibility of the source."

Bruce Fitch, former justice minister in the Conservative government,
said "every now and again there would be e-mails that were not
complimentary."

"I did have a meeting with the RCMP who are in charge of the security
of the MLAs and ministers," said Fitch.

"They look at each and every situation."

Fitch said he never had bodyguards assigned to him although former
premier Bernard Lord and former health minister Elvy Robichaud did
have extra security staff assigned on occasion.

He said if any MLA felt threatened, he or she would discuss it with the RCMP.

N.S. mass shooter allegedly had guns, drugs, secret rooms, court documents say

Gabriel Wortman smuggled drugs from Maine 'for years,' associate told police



Elizabeth McMillan· CBC News· Posted: Jul 27, 2020 6:34 PM AT |

The man responsible for the mass shooting in Nova Scotia had a stockpile of guns and drugs, and false walls and hiding spots on his properties, according to newly unsealed court documents that summarize police interviews. 

Provincial Court Judge Laurel Halfpenny MacQuarrie on Monday released some previously redacted sections of search warrant applications filed by the RCMP.

Police applied for permission to search Gabriel Wortman's properties — a clinic in Dartmouth, and a cottage and large garage both in Portapique — after he killed friends, neighbours and strangers while masquerading as a Mountie on April 18 and 19.











The rampage that left 22 people dead unfolded over about 13 hours, before police shot and killed him.

In a subsequent interview with Halifax Regional Police, someone who knew Wortman for nine years described him as a "sexual predator" who provided people in Portapique and nearby Economy with drugs. That same person, who had not seen Wortman for eight months, claimed he had smuggled drugs from Maine "for years" and kept a stockpile of guns, according to the documents.

The drugs included a bag of 10,000 OxyContin and 15,000 Dilaudid pills he'd picked up in New Brunswick, the person told police.

The allegations have not been tested in court. RCMP Supt. Darren Campbell told CBC News in June that police had found no evidence Wortman had income generated from any illegal activity.

The same witness — in details made public when the judge released a heavily redacted copy of the search warrant in May — described Wortman as "controlling and paranoid" and would talk about "getting rid of bodies, burning and chemicals."

Some of that person's statement remains redacted, as do many sections throughout the summary of interviews. Among the new sections that were released Monday, that witness relayed there were two false walls in a bathroom and two others in a garage, and a storage room under a large deck in Portapique.











Another witness, who also told investigators Wortman had a history of domestic violence, said he had shown off a hidden compartment under a workbench in his garage, where he stored a high-powered rifle. That same witness said there was a "false wall" in his shed in Dartmouth.

A third person told police "there is a secret room in the clinic in Dartmouth," the documents state. Wortman worked as a denturist and lived above the clinic.

RCMP Sgt. Angela Hawryluk wrote in her summary of their findings that people referenced "secret hiding spots."

The Mounties have said part of their investigation into the killings is looking at how the shooter obtained an authentic police uniform and how he outfitted a decommissioned RCMP cruiser to appear authentic.

The court documents include summaries of statements given to investigators and information gathered in the case. The information was used to convince justices of the peace to grant the search warrants. The RCMP requested the information and search warrants be sealed.

References to uncle 

Two references to the shooter's uncle were among the previously redacted details released Monday evening.











One person told police Wortman "had an uncle who is a retired RCMP member and this uncle gave Gabriel parts of his uniform."

Wortman's spouse, in her interview with police, said he had a uniform belonging to an uncle in the RCMP but it didn't fit him, according to the document.

Police have said the shooter had estranged relatives who were retired from the RCMP, but that they did not provide the uniform he used during the rampage. Campbell said in April police had learned the shooter had several uniforms from different police agencies, but it was impossible to recover them as Wortman had burned his cottage in Portapique.
Wortman carried out his rampage using a vehicle made to look like an RCMP cruiser in every way, with the exception of the numbers police circled in this photo. (Nova Scotia RCMP)

Ongoing questions

CBC News and other media outlets applied for access to the records, which RCMP initially asked be sealed. Closed hearings were held in Port Hawkesbury, N.S., last week and the judge has been considering whether to make public more than 1,000 blacked-out sections. A further hearing is planned for mid-August.

Halfpenny MacQuarrie said some sections would remain redacted because of the ongoing investigation.

Since April, there have been ongoing questions about the RCMP's response to the shootings and the force's handling of past complaints about the gunman.











A CBC investigation revealed police agencies across Nova Scotia were warned in 2011 about a tip that Wortman threatened "to kill a cop." Two years later, a woman who lived in Portapique at the time reported to RCMP that he had illegal guns and was abusive toward his spouse.

Last week, provincial and federal governments announced three people have been appointed to an independent review panel to consider the causes, context and circumstances that led to the tragedy.

But families of the people killed have said that falls well short of the public inquiry for which they have been calling.

In Halifax and Bridgewater on Monday, some family members joined together with supporters and politicians to continue calling for a public inquiry.

Rallies continue push for public inquiry to Nova Scotia mass shooting

'We'll add our voice to make it loud, until we shake the bricks of Province House,' says El Jones

Families of some of the 22 people killed in Nova Scotia's mass shooting this spring joined together with supporters and politicians Monday to continue calling for a public inquiry into the Portapique tragedy.

Large crowds gathered in Bridgewater, N.S., and Halifax to hear passionate speeches and push the provincial and federal governments to reverse the decision to appoint an independent three-person review panel to look into what happened.

"That's no good. For something like this, that's no good," said Tom Webber in Bridgewater, father of victim Joey Webber.











A review means it is up to the panel to decide whether any hearings will be held in public. All documents and information collected as part of the review will also be kept confidential.

Webber, wearing a shirt bearing Joey's name and face, said an inquiry would likely mean the police would have to "admit to a lot of things."
The three people overseeing the review panel are Leanne Fitch, Anne McLellan and Michael MacDonald. (The Canadian Press/CBC News)
"I think there's a lot of things went wrong and [it's] a pretty easy way to avoid facing up to them," he said.

Webber said he's hopeful enough pressure will change the government's mind, and was glad to see so many people attend the rally.

"It feels good. Doing it for Joe, to find out some answers," he said.

On April 18 and 19, a lone gunman went on a 13-hour shooting rampage that began in the small community of Portapique and ended at a gas station in Enfield, 150 kilometres away. Twenty-two people were killed and several buildings were torched, and the gunman was shot dead by police.











The Bridgewater event began with a rally on King Street outside the constituency office of provincial Justice Minister Mark Furey. People then marched to Shipyards Landing for speeches.

Bridgewater event organizer Laurie Scott said more people across the province and country need to attend marches and rallies until a full public inquiry is announced.

Inquiry approach shows 'disrespect,' says rally organizer

Scott said she can't imagine how the victim's families are dealing with the whole situation after weeks of calling for an inquiry, only to be turned down.

"I think it's indecent. It definitely sends a big level of disrespect, but I think it goes much further than that. It sends the message of corruption, and that's what we need an inquiry for," Scott said.

"If there isn't any corruption in this, have the open inquiry."

Opposition leaders blast government

Provincial opposition leaders attended the Bridgewater rally. PC Leader Tim Houston and NDP Leader Gary Burril both said the Nova Scotia government made a mistake in choosing to go with a review and ignore the long-held wishes of victims' families.











"This was simply an error of judgment," Burrill said, adding that the right move would be for the province to acknowledge the criticisms that have come from "every quarter" and announce an inquiry.

Burrill said the move would be comforting and a "helpful gesture" toward those who have lost loved ones in one of Canada's deadliest mass killings.

Houston said the review announcement has shattered many people's confidence in government.

"I have to believe that they're realizing the gravity of their mistake. But now the question will be if they have the confidence to admit it, and that'll be up to them," Houston said.

About 100 kilometres northeast, more than 100 people gathered in Halifax's downtown Victoria Park to also call for an inquiry.

At one point, a speaker called for attendees to pull out their phones and email Premier Stephen McNeil and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to immediately demand they change course.











El Jones, a poet and advocate, shared an emotional piece before a crowd that also heard from NDP MLA Claudia Chender.

"We are standing in the light. No more coverups and staying quiet. No more inconsistencies and lies, we say to publicly inquire," Jones said.

"And we'll add our voice to make it loud, until we shake the bricks of Province House. We'll stand our ground as one for justice. We are Nova Scotia strong."

The panel will provide an interim report to the provincial justice and federal public safety ministers by Feb. 28, 2021. The final report will be delivered by Aug. 31, 2021. The ministers will receive the reports first and then make them public.

Independent panel 'a slap in the face,' says daughter of N.S. shooting victim

Families of Nova Scotia victims asked for public inquiry, but review announced instead

Some family members of the 22 victims of the Nova Scotia mass shooting say they're deeply disappointed by the announcement Thursday of an independent review into the tragedy.

Relatives have been calling for a public inquiry, but today the provincial and federal governments stopped short of that, instead announcing there will be an independent three-person panel led by the province's former top judge.

"I'm not really happy. I really feel that a full inquiry is necessary," said Charlene Bagley, who lost her father, Tom Bagley, in the shooting.











"We all deserve the truth and full transparency and I don't feel like we're going to get that."

The review means it is up to the panel to decide whether any hearings will be held in public. All documents and information collected as part of the review will also be kept confidential.

Bagley said she can't speak for the other families, but she said she wouldn't mind those aspects being made public if it means she gets the answers she's seeking.

"I don't want all the details [of] what happened to my father to be known," she said. "But … if it helps move forward and that we can learn from this, then I would be OK with it."

The panel's report, which is due next year and will be made public, will consider the causes, context and circumstances that led to the incident — including gender-based and intimate-partner violence and the gunman's access to firearms — as well as the police response and communications.

It will also address the steps taken to inform, support and engage victims, families and other people affected by the tragedy.











The panel will be chaired by former chief justice of Nova Scotia Michael MacDonald.

The other panel members are former deputy prime minister Anne McLellan, who is currently a senior adviser with the law firm Bennett Jones LLP, and Leanne Fitch, a former chief of the Fredericton Police Force.

All three panel members are from the Maritimes.

22 people killed

On April 18 and 19, a lone gunman went on a 13-hour shooting rampage that began in the small community of Portapique and ended at a gas station in Enfield, 150 kilometres away. Twenty-two people were killed, and the gunman was shot dead by police.

On Wednesday, about 280 people marched to the RCMP detachment in Bible Hill, N.S., to call for an inquiry to be held, after months of waiting for answers.

Nick Beaton, whose wife, Kristen Beaton, was killed in the shooting along with their unborn child, said he's upset with the decision to go with a review instead of an inquiry.











"They say they're worried about our thoughts and feelings. This upsets us more than anything."
Beaton said he and the other families are "not done fighting" until they get the answers they've asked for.

Darcy Dobson, the daughter of victim Heather O'Brien, agreed.

"We're disappointed. It's a slap in the face, for sure," she said.

"Today, [Justice Minister] Mark Furey said in his release that he didn't want to hurt the families anymore, and what you're doing is hurting us by not giving us what we asked for."
 

From left, the three panelists are Leanne Fitch, Anne McLellan and Michael MacDonald. (The Canadian Press/CBC News)

In a news conference Thursday, Furey said the panel members were chosen because of their experience in fact-finding and independence, in-depth knowledge of public safety, policing and gender-based and intimate-partner violence, as well as their understanding of shared federal-provincial relations and responsibilities.











Furey has said on a number of occasions that while the province was committed to a review, it would not lead it.

On Thursday, he said they reviewed all options, including a public inquiry, but this process provided the "most timely opportunity" for the earliest responses and setting up a panel.

"We heard loud and clear that people wanted early changes," Furey said, noting that it can take years to set up an inquiry and that a review wouldn't take as long.
In response to this explanation, Dobson said: "We never asked for quick. We asked for the truth."

The review process also does not include some of the powers granted in a public inquiry, such as information provided under oath and the ability to subpoena.

Federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said both levels of government are "absolutely committed" to this review and its recommendations.











"This is the right approach and we believe we have the right people to do the work and they have the necessary authorities to get Nova Scotians the answers they deserve," Blair said.

Families briefed

Furey said he spoke to the families earlier this week and that he wanted to personally tell them about the review panel ahead of time.

"We must commit to caring for and thinking of them first," he said.

He said he heard from them and is aware that a public inquiry is the mechanism "that they would prefer." But, he said, after looking at all of the factors, the approach of the review and the strength of the panel gives them the authority to get families the answers they need.

Bagley, who lost her father, said the families were given the opportunity to ask questions about this during their briefing, but she said when she submitted her written question, it was reworded and not properly answered.

"I feel like if they can't be transparent even there, how am I to trust that they're going to be transparent when it comes to the real thing?" she said.











Beaton also said he wasn't satisfied with the meeting with Furey.

"Any question that we asked him, he said, 'I can't speak on behalf of the panel,'" Beaton said.

Furey and Blair said all agencies and organizations under their jurisdiction will participate fully in the review, including the RCMP, the Canada Firearms Program, Canada Border Services Agency, the Criminal Intelligence Service and the national Alert Ready Program.

The RCMP released a statement on Thursday afternoon saying it supports the independent review and "will co-operate fully," ensuring the panel has all "available information required."

The panel can also notify the ministers, as well as the public, if an institution or individual fails to co-operate within a reasonable time or claims they cannot due to things like solicitor-client privilege or concerns an ongoing police investigation could be compromised.

"We've empowered the panel to speak publicly at any time, whether it's over the course of their work, in accessing information or anyone interfering in the independence of that panel," Furey said.











Final report in August

The panel, however, has no power to challenge claims of privilege, and can only make note of them.

The panel will provide an interim report to the ministers by Feb. 28, 2021. The final report will be delivered by Aug. 31, 2021. The ministers will receive the reports first and then make them public.

Furey said the panel members are prepared to start work right away, but there are a few administrative matters to get through first, such as finding office space.

The cost of the review will be shared equally between the two levels of government, but there is no set budget yet.

Reaction from opposition parties

Nova Scotia's opposition parties are also calling for an inquiry instead of a review.

In a written statement, Tim Houston, leader of the Progressive Conservatives, described the review as "a complete and utter abdication of responsibility" and "cover your ass politics."











"Premier Stephen McNeil promised Nova Scotians that by waiting for months, the chosen mechanism would ensure change across the country. We now know that wasn't true," the statement said.

"Nova Scotians should be angry, not only because they have been cheated out of an inquiry that is essential to getting answers, but because their Premier and Prime Minister are attempting to fool them into thinking this direction is in their best interest. We need to know who will be held accountable for this short-sighted decision."

Also in a statement, NDP leader Gary Burrill said the decision to forgo an inquiry in favour of the review was "hurtful and disappointing."

"Across Nova Scotia, many organizations and experts, the public in general, and most significantly, the families, have properly called for a public inquiry into the worst mass shooting in our country's history," Burrill's statement said. "The government is mistaken in deciding to do something less."

WATCH | Disappointed by independent review, families of N.S. shooting victims demand public inquiry:
 

The federal and Nova Scotia governments have ordered a joint independent review of April's mass killing in Nova Scotia that left 22 people dead. It's come as a disappointment for the families who want to see a public inquiry instead. 4:35

Families of Shooting Victims Disappointed by “Independent Review”

The “Independent Review” announced by Ministers Furey and Blair is
wholly insufficient to meet the objectives of providing full and
transparent answers to the families and the public, identifying
deficiencies in responses, and providing meaningful lessons to be
learned to avoid similar future tragedies.

The choices of commissioners, and in particular Former Chief Justice
Michael MacDonald, were thoughtful and appropriate for an inquiry.
Former Chief Justice MacDonald is of the highest rank in judicial
capabilities and is of unassailable integrity. That said, any
decision- maker can only render decisions based on the information and
evidence presented to them.

The announced “independent review” model, to be conducted in a
so-called “non- traumatic” and “restorative” way, will prejudice the
panel by restricting the evidence and information being presented.

In a public inquiry setting, such as was employed in the Marshall and
Westray public inquiries, interested parties had the opportunity to
question the witnesses. It is a very well- held maxim in our common
law legal tradition, that cross-examination is the most effective
truth-finding mechanism available. Without proper and thorough
questioning, the panel will be left with incomplete and untested
evidence upon which to base its decision. This is completely contrary
to our Canadian notions of fair and transparent justice.

Most disappointingly, Ministers Furey and Blair have hidden behind
their contrived notion of a “trauma-free” process to exclude the full
participation of the families under the guise of protecting them from
further trauma. This is not how the families wish to be treated.
Minister Furey has spoken with the families, so he must know that they
want to participate, not to be “protected” by an incomplete process.

The families want a full and transparent public inquiry. Why will
Minister Furey not give them this? Why will he not give the citizens
of Nova Scotia this? “We are all in this together” has been the slogan
throughout 2020 - the families simply want us all, the public, to be
in this together now to figure out a better tomorrow for families and
the Province.

After backlash, governments agree to hold public inquiry into Nova
Scotia shooting
By Alexander Quon & Elizabeth McSheffrey Global News
Posted July 28, 2020 10:42 am

WATCH: The federal government is now proceeding with a public inquiry
into the Nova Scotia massacre that left 22 innocent people dead in
April. Elizabeth McSheffrey looks at why Ottawa is changing paths now,
and what the inquiry has the power to do.

The decision to hold a review into the mass killing in April that
resulted in the deaths of 22 people in Nova Scotia took three months
to arrange. In less than a week the decision has been undone after a
massive wave of public backlash.

Federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair announced on Tuesday a
public inquiry will be held into the mass shooting that began in
Portapique, N.S. on April 18 and came to an end nearly 100 km away, 13
hours later.

“The Government of Canada is now proceeding with a full Public
Inquiry, under the authority of the Inquiries Act,” said Blair in a
statement.

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 2002 Annual 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
           your concerns, and these were the appropriate steps to take.

                                                  Yours sincerely.
                                                              Renee
Blanchet
                                                              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
Minister gave 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 announced that 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.

15.  The Plaintiff states that whereas the Crown refused to put
anything in writing to either confirm or deny that he was in fact
barred from the legislative properties in NB, he returned to the
public property whenever he deemed it necessary to do so as he ran for
public office three more times. For example, when the Plaintiff was a
candidate in the election of the 39th Parliament for the riding of
Fredericton, he was asked to come into the legislative building of NB
to record a live interview for an Atlantic Television (ATV) news cast
shortly before polling day. On that occasion, the Sergeant-at-Arms and
his Aides-de-Camp did not attempt to bar the Plaintiff from access to
legislative property quite possibly because they did not wish their
actions to be recorded by ATV. However, the Crown made matters worse
in short order. CBC barred the Plaintiff from an all-candidates’
debate on the University of New Brunswick (UNB) campus and on polling
day two District Returning Officers on the UNB campus after viewing
identification threatened to have the Plaintiff arrested stating that
they did not believe he was on the ballot.

16.  The Plaintiff states that the NB Sergeant-at-Arms continued with
his threat of arrest after the election 39th Parliament. In response,
the Plaintiff challenged the Sergeant-at-Arms to either put his threat
in writing or arrest him so he could at least argue the Crown about
the offences against his rights under the Charter.

17.  The Plaintiff states that on June 16th, 2006 he was on a sidewalk
on Queen Street in Fredericton NB waiting for a friend who was meeting
with the Premier of NB and others inside the legislative assembly
building. Within minutes of his arrival the Sergeant-at-Arms and two
members of the FPF marched out of the building and served a signed
document barring him from public places overseen by the Crown because
some unnamed parties found him in ”Contempt of the House”. The
Sergeant-at-Arms then ordered the Plaintiff off legislative property.
When the Plaintiff pointed out that he was not on legislative property
but on a sidewalk on Queen Street, the Sergeant-at-Arms claimed that
his jurisdiction extended to the middle of the street. The two members
of the FPF identified themselves and agreed that if the Plaintiff did
not cross the street they would arrest him.

18.  The Plaintiff states that after he crossed Queen Street he took a
photograph of the Sergeant-at-Arms and the FPF marching back into the
building to prove date and time of their malice. He sent a photograph
of their barring notice to many people particularly liberal party
members gathering in Moncton, NB that day to hear a debate by those
who wished to replace the former Prime Minister as their party leader.
It was important to do so because a liberal mandate created the
Charter in 1982 compelling all New Brunswickers including the
Sergeant-at-Arms and the police to abide the law within Canada’s only
bilingual province. Any citizen or public official who understands the
Charter and received a copy of the barring notice should have noticed
the Crown had barred a citizen from the legislative properties in NB
in only one official language. No police officer or politician or
Language Commissioner at either a federal or provincial level ever
responded to any inquiry about that fact. The Sergeant-at-Arms of NB
did acknowledge the receipt of a copy of his barring notice years
later but he did so in French only.

19.  The Plaintiff states that the NB Sergeant-at-Arms and his cohorts
in the FPF, RCMP and the COC are well aware that as soon as the
Plaintiff’s friend came out of legislative building on June 16, 2006,
he was given the barring notice to take back inside in order to
inquire about it and the reasons behind it. The COC are clearly named
at the bottom of the document yet the Commissionaires and all the
politicians he encountered that day claimed that they were not allowed
to discuss the barring notice and never would ever since. The
Plaintiff finds that the police, politicians and bureaucrats etc. are
maintaining their oath to the Crown rather than uphold the law and
Sections 2(c) (d), 16(2), 18(2) and 20(2) of the Charter and are
relying on the Crown’s legal counsel to stop him from seeking relief.

20.  The Plaintiff states that the RCMP and the members of the FPF who
harassed the Plaintiff in September of 2006 while he was a candidate
in the NB provincial election would not explain why the NB
Sergeant-at-Arms and the COC had barred him with a document written in
English only or why it was not published in the Royal Gazette. Members
of the FPF who violated the Plaintiff’s privacy trying to read an
email that he was composing on a laptop within his car parked on
private property refused to explain why they thought they had the
right do so as they attempted to interrogate him without a warrant or
due process of law. Members of the FPF refused to take the same
documents the RCMP had so that their major crimes unit could finally
investigate after they demanded that the Plaintiff identify himself so
they could check for warrants for his arrest. The FPF would not
discuss what they would do if he returned to the UNB campus or if he
parked a vehicle and put money in a parking meter on the side of Queen
Street claimed by the Sergeant-at-Arms. In February of 2007 after a
Cabinet Minister of NB acknowledged his concerns with the RCMP, his
children took pictures of the Plaintiff standing on the legislative
property and the Sergeant-at-Arms and the FPF did nothing that day.
However, the police harassment got worse afterwards. The FPF tried to
call him a criminal while the Plaintiff waited for answers before he
argued the Crown in court about his property that the FPF had
illegally seized. The text of two emails that the Crown and the FPF
sent in 2007 are as follows:

                         This will acknowledge receipt of a copy of
your e-mail of December

have taken the
                    measure of forwarding a copy to Assistant
Commissioner Steve Graham
                    of the RCMP “J” Division in Fredericton .

                   Sincerely,

                         Dear Mr. Amos

          My Name is Lou LaFleur and I am a Detective with the
Fredericton Police Major Crime Unit. I would like to talk to you
regarding files that I am investigating and that you are alleged to
have involvement in.

            Please call me at your earliest convenience and leave a
message and a phone number on my secure and confidential line if I am
not in my office.
                         yours truly,

                         Cpl. Lou LaFleur
                         Fredericton Police Force
                         311 Queen St.
                         Fredericton, NB
                         506-460-2332

21.  The Plaintiff states that by September of 2007, he was told by
police officers and others that he was barred from the town of
Woodstock, the House of Commons, the National Capital District
including Rideau Hall and the University of Ottawa, the Capital
District of NB including the Lieutenant Governor’s residence and the
University of NB, all other legislative properties in Canada and that
a photograph of him was posted inside the NB legislative building, the
Fredericton airport and at least one mining property guarded by the
Corps of Commissionaires.

22.  The Plaintiff states that on or about September 13, 2007 during a
conversation with the office of the Speaker of the House of Commons he
was referred to the Sergeant-at-Arms in order to find out if the
Plaintiff was truly barred from the House of Commons and if he had
been sent an answer to the documentation the Speaker and the
government of Iceland received in May of 2006. The Sergeant-at-Arms
was apparently well aware of his concerns because he said he knew the
Plaintiff from a past life and quickly hung up the telephone. The
Sergeant-at-Arms never did answer the Plaintiff and ignored all his
contacts ever since.

23.  The Plaintiff states that the odd response from Sergeant-at-Arms
of the House of Commons caused him to research how they knew each
other. The public record states that in June of 2005 the RCMP officer
acting as Aide-de-Camp to the NB Lieutenant Governor retired and
joined the House of Commons as Director of Security Operations. On
September 1, 2006, he became the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of
Commons. Therefore, because of all three of his positions from June of
2004 to December of 2014, the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of Commons
must have agreed and seconded his fellow Sergeant-at-Arms in NB and
his threats to arrest Plaintiff if he reappeared on parliamentary
property.

24.  The Plaintiff states that with regards to this complaint about
being illegally barred from parliamentary properties, the most recent
contact from the Crown was the three members of the RCMP who harassed
the Plaintiff at 1:30 AM on December 16, 2014 not long after he had
received an email from a former CSIS agent who is the current
Sergeant-at-Arms of the legislative assembly of Alberta.

The Facts of this Matter

25.  The Plaintiff states that on June 24, 2004 within minutes of his
being barred, the Sergeant-at-Arms, two members of the FPF and one
Commissionaire witnessed him deliver a large number of documents to
the attention of two lawyers in the office of the opposition next
door. He suspects that the Sergeant-at-Arms read at least the cover
letter when his documents were in his care because to support his
right to bar a citizen in front two members of the FPF he falsely
accused the Plaintiff of attempting to serve documents while in the
legislative building.

26.  The Plaintiff states that within the hour of being barred, the
Plaintiff visited the headquarters of the FPF and attempted to meet
with its Chief in order to discuss the false allegations and the
threat of arrest. Whereas a Corporal denied access to his Chief, the
Plaintiff contacted the City Solicitor of Fredericton because he knew
him personally in younger days. After waiting one week for someone to
get back to him, the Plaintiff visited the constituency office of the
Premier and the law office of a former Premier of NB and gave them
many documents with the same cover letter addressing his concern about
being barred from the legislative properties amongst other issues. One
month later the Attorney General of NB sent an answer similar to what
the Deputy Prime Minister sent eight months earlier telling him to
take up his concerns with the police and ignored the issue of a
citizen being barred and threatened by the police. A lawyer acting as
the NB Ombudsman did not wish deal with the government on his behalf
suggested that the Plaintiff take up his concerns with the New
Brunswick Police Commission (NBPC) and introduced them. The Plaintiff,
his wife and a lawyer met with the NBPC. The NBPC acknowledged the
complaint and asked the FPF to investigate their questionable actions.
In the eleven years since the NBPC never responded and the Plaintiff
knows why. The NBPC and Governor General have many of his documents
and one is a letter to the Commissioner of the RCMP. The Plaintiff is
well aware the Chair of the NBPC in 2004 was also the Chief Coroner
whom he testified before on July 15, 1982 and he clearly informed the
Crown he assisted in a successful civil lawsuit against the RCMP about
a wrongful death.

27.  The Plaintiff states that the Sergeant-at-Arms, two
Commissionaires, a librarian, and two members of the FPF knew that the
Plaintiff was in legislative assembly on June 24, 2004 looking for the
“blogger” Charles Leblanc.  While the Plaintiff was waiting for
Charles Leblanc to arrive that day he exercised his democratic right
to witness the proceedings of the Legislative Assembly from the
gallery.

28.  The Plaintiff states that apparently a friend of the Crown put a
new spin on this matter the following day. The Crown’s corporate media
has never said anything about the Crown’s malicious actions barring
him it has had lots to say about the barring the blogger Charles
Leblanc two years later and it has made the arrests and prosecutions
of him well known. On June 25, 2004 Charles Leblanc a well-known
friend of the MLAs, the Sergeant-at-Arms, the Commissionaires, the
RCMP and the Fredericton Police Force falsely reported in the social
media that the Plaintiff had been “shown the door” claiming that he
had attempted to interrupt the proceedings in the Legislature by
speaking from the gallery. The Crown knows if that were true it would
have been recorded in the legislative records. The words of Charles
Leblanc an important witness to be called to testify as to what he
knows about this matter are as follows

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

 “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!”

29.  The Plaintiff states that he was not surprised that for the
benefit of his political opponents, servants of the Crown would
practice such malice against a citizen seeking public office. Three
weeks before the Plaintiff was barred in 2004 Elections Canada’s
lawyers waited until the very last minute to admit that section 3 of
the Charter existed and that it affirmed his right to run as an
Independent.

30.  The Plaintiff states that he has studied the actions of
journalists, politicians and their lawyers for many years and has
argued many. He has no doubt that during the time of a federal
election the Crown would not have barred any member of a wealthy well
known political party from any parliamentary property in Canada
without dealing with a Charter argument in court and a host of
journalists almost immediately. With that in mind the Plaintiff
gathered the evidence to support this claim and waited until the CBC
reported that the Prime Minister had asked the Governor General to
drop a writ. Now history tells us all that the writ has been dropped
early in order for the Prime Minister to cause the most expensive and
one of the longest federal elections in the history of Canada on a
date mandated by a law that his wealthy political party created for
its benefit. Now that the stock markets are in a turmoil again the
Office of the Inspector General of the SEC is acknowledging the
Plaintiff’s emails but only after they were made aware that he
received an ethical answer from a global organization that oversees
auditors. Recent events have proven to the Plaintiff that it is
important that he file this action in Federal Court as soon as
possible in order see if the Harer government wishes to continue
barring him from parliamentary property before polling day.

31.  The Plaintiff states that during the election of the 38th
Parliament not one of the employees of the CBC denied the fact that it
had acted in a deliberate partisan fashion and ignored the Crown
Corporation’s mandate. CBC reported that there were five candidates on
the ballot in Fundy but failed to name the Plaintiff in their website
or on the television and the radio. Nothing surprised the Plaintiff
about the actions of the CBC but they should not have laughed at him
when he pointed out other citizens should be afforded equal
opportunity to hear of him.

32.  The Plaintiff states that many politicians knew that the CBC had
hard copy of two lawsuits of his since 2002 and their journalists had
been laughing at him for two years. It was a profound mistake for CBC
to ignore his candidacy now that he did as he promised in a statement
of one lawsuit and was running for public office in Canada. As CBC
continued serving the interests of the politicians who provided the
funding sourced from the Canadian taxpayer other citizens noticed that
the CBC was ignoring his candidacy. One journalist who had laughed at
him called back and tried to make a deal after the Plaintiff had
called the Ombudsman for CBC complaining of him and his associates
only to be laughed at some more and invited to sue CBC. CBC continued
to ignore the Plaintiff even though the popular former CBC reporter
Mike Duffy was now employed by their largest corporate competitor, CTV
and they claimed Fundy was a riding to watch and at least three
newspapers and even the CBC’s blogger friend Charles Leblanc had
chosen to put his strange spin the actions and words of the Plaintiff
while calling him a Hells Angel. However, the aforementioned CBC
journalist did not keep his job very long after his boss and three
directors of CBC received the very same documents and CD that the
Plaintiff’s political opponents had in their possession. (The former
CBC journalist did get a job with the government of NB and has
continued with his obvious malice ever since)

33.  The Plaintiff states that the CBC would not have ignored its
mandate and the standing of a candidate if he or she were a member of
the Liberal Party or the newly merged Conservative parties or the Bloc
Quebecois Party or the Green Party or the New Democratic Party without
expecting to deal with legions of lawyers. CBC had no legal right
whatsoever to ignore the Plaintiff merely because he was an
Independent. In fact the mandate of CBC as a publicly owned
broadcaster dictates that he must not be ignored whether he be a
member of a powerful political party or not. With regards to this
complaint, on June 24, 2004 there were many journalists inside the
legislative properties of NB not just CBC. They published nothing
about the Plaintiff of his running for public office or his being
barred or even after their blogger friend, Charles Leblanc certainly
did.

34.  The Plaintiff states that in June of 2006 Charles Leblanc was
also barred from the same legislative properties but not the Public
Documents Building on the UNB campus. More importantly the
Sergeant-at-Arms was clever enough not to sign or date the English
only document this time. Thus Charles Leblanc who usually demands
things in French from the government when he is in trouble was never
barred at all. The CBC immediately reported the barring of Charles
Leblanc falsely claiming that the Sergeant-at-Arms had signed the
Barring Notice. CBC wrote the Sergeant-at-Arms admitted that he had
barred about six others but did not disclose as to who they were. CBC
did not ask who who the other citizens were because they knew they
would have to name the Plaintiff as well. Many people have protested
the barring of Charles Leblanc and a petition to have it revoked was
placed in the public record of the legislative assembly to no avail.
In 2006 Charles Leblanc was arrested in Saint John and in 2011 in
Fredericton. In 2009 and 2012 the FPF arrested their blogging friend
Charles Leblanc on the legislative properties. The CBC reported each
time but failed to follow up and investigate and report why the Crown
refused to charge Charles Leblanc in both instances. The CBC knows
that as soon as the Plaintiff contacted the politicians and police to
remind them that he would appreciate being called to testify at
Charles Leblanc’s trial as a hostile but ethical witness about the
barring actions of the Crown it would never go forward with the
charges. Leblanc was arrested by the FPF two other times in recent
years and he is on trial right now. The CBC knows the Plaintiff has
talked to members of the RCMP, the FPF, the Saint John Police Force,
the Miramichi Police Force and the Edmundston Police Force who were
investigating Leblanc for various reasons since 2006. The police
usually denied knowing who the Plaintiff was as they refused to answer
his emails. The Plaintiff knows the reason why Charles Leblanc was
barred from legislative property. He agrees with the Crown doing so
but it failed to allow the nasty blogger the right to due process of
law just like it did with and several others. He has never understood
why the Crown has not charged Leblanc under sections 300 and 319 of
the Criminal Code in lieu of arresting him for protesting too loudly
or possible child porn or trespass or punching an equally nasty poetic
beggar.

35.  The Plaintiff states that by the end of November of 2004 a lawyer
in the employ of the Attorney General of NB had answered him in
writing and the FPF, two lawyers, the Mayor and a city councilor of
Fredericton had some very serious email exchanges with the Plaintiff.
The only responses to the Plaintiff about the breach of his right to
peaceful assembly came from the (NBPC) on September 14, 2004
acknowledging his complaint (File no 2110-04-11) and two letters byway
of email from the FPF. On September 30, 2004 a Staff Sergeant of the
FPF wrote that he was in possession of the complaint and requested
evidence to support the Plaintiff’s statement that he had been barred
from the legislative properties for “political reasons not legal
reasons” The Plaintiff responded and suggested that the FPF listen to
the tape of the interview he had with the NBPC and study all the
evidence he gave to the NBPC in the presence of a lawyer as a witness.
The Staff Sergeant responded on October 29, 2004 stating that he had
detailed reports from fellow members of the FPF and he had interviewed
the Sergeant-at-Arms. He claimed that his fellow police officers acted
appropriately and he would inform the Chief of the FPF that he did not
have sufficient cause under the Police Act to investigate the
complaint the Plaintiff registered with the NBPC against the FPF. The
Plaintiff pointed out that the conflict of interest but grateful the
FPF acknowledged the incident. The Mayor of Fredericton found no
humour in that fact and sent the Plaintiff many emails within minutes
no doubt in an effort to overload his email account. In 2003 the
Plaintiff had demanded the Crown investigate the actions of RCMP now
the RCMP should do the same with the Crown because that para-military
police force has jurisdiction everywhere in Canada including all
public and private property controlled by the Crown even military
bases. The words of the Sergeant-at-Arms, Commissionaires and police
were witnessed by only the Plaintiff. A legal action about their
offences against his rights under the Charter would boil down to their
word against his. Evidence was required because he was outnumbered and
attacked by people the Crown employed to understand the law. It was
doubtful they would act ethically and until June 16, 2006 the Crown
refused to put anything in writing to prove this claim about the fact
that the Plaintiff is barred from parliamentary properties.

36.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown is aware that far greater
offences have been practiced within the Capital District of NB by the
FPF and the RCMP against the Plaintiff. Many servants of the Crown
have challenged him to seek relief in a Canadian provincial court. The
Plaintiff will not oblige Crown attorneys of thier desires he will
file in a court of a country at a time he chooses. Time is on the
Plaintiff’s side even though he getting old and was finally allowed to
collect his Canada Pension. His children and grandchildren are still
very young. Whatever was done against the Plaintiff was done against
his Clan as well. All of the Plaintiff’s heirs are Canadian citizens
and two of them are American citizens as well. The Crown, INTERPOL and
the American law enforcement authorities cannot deny that there is no
statute of limitations on certain crimes. The problem the Plaintiff is
finding an ethical journalist to report about the legal actions that
he and the Crown have already been involved in since 1982.

37.  The Plaintiff states that in October of 2004 if the Staff
Sergeant of the FPF had listened to the tape of his interview with the
NBPC and studied the documents they have in their possession he would
not have been so quick to dismiss the Plaintiff and his concerns in
such a fashion. Their many lawyers hardly ever allow corrupt police
officers to admit that the Plaintiff exists or put their malice
towards him in writing. The Plaintiff had explained to the NBPC what
transpired on June 24th, 2004. To explain briefly the police should
have known instantly the Sergeant-at-Arms actions were for political
reasons as soon as he turned in the guest pass and picked up his
documents as he stepped outside the building. While the Plaintiff was
inside the legislative building he spoke to only three employees two
Commissionaires and the librarian. He did not interfere with the
proceedings in the House as he watched the MLAs and their assistants
from the gallery, some of whom he knew personally. He did notice
political pundits in the building. One Cabinet Minister’s assistant
had been following him for a couple of days. His political foes wanted
him off the property immediately but they knew that he was not shy of
litigation if the Crown attempted to place a malicious charge against
him. Therefore they elected the Sergeant-at-Arms to try bully the
Plaintiff.

38.  The Plaintiff states that he satisfied himself as to the reasons
behind the blatant malice once he asked Sergeant-at-Arms and the
police three questions as follows:

(1)     The Plaintiff first asked was why he was being barred from the
legislative property. The Sergeant-at-Arms falsely claimed in front of
the police that the Plaintiff had tried to serve documents on somebody
inside the parliamentary building. The Commissionaires and police knew
that was untrue because they all witnessed the fact that the Plaintiff
had left all the documents in his possession with the Commissionaire
at the entrance before he was allowed into the building and they all
watched him pick up the same documents as he turned in a visitor’s
pass after he was asked to step outside of the building.

(2)     The second question was to the police to see if they agreed to
the false claim of the Sergeant-at-Arms and if they would identify
themselves. After the Sergeant-at-Arms said something quickly in
French and both police officers stated that they agreed with him but
only one would state his name and rank.

(3)     The Plaintiff then asked the Sergeant-at-Arms and the police
if they thought they had jurisdiction over him. They all said yes but
refused to take any documents from the Plaintiff just as the Deputy
Prime Minister suggested.

39.  The Plaintiff states that three people who were mentioned during
the aforesaid meeting with the NBPC were Charles Leblanc, Byron Prior
and the most wanted American gangster Whitey Bulger. All three were
well aware of the Plaintiff and his actions. More importantly the NBPC
were made well aware of the RCMP’s knowledge of his possession of many
American police surveillance wiretap tapes. The NBPC were shown the
very same tapes that he had promised to give to the Suffolk County
District Attorney in the Dorchester District Court of Boston
Massachusetts before a hearing to discuss an illegal summons to answer
a malicious unsigned criminal complaint (Docket no. 0407CR004623).
When the Plaintiff did so he was falsely imprisoned under the charges
of “other”.

40.  The Plaintiff states that an NBPC Commissioner did ask if they
should take the original wiretap tapes. The Plaintiff said no and that
the RCMP already had some but the NBPC could make copies of the ones
before them. The NBPC declined and said they did not have jurisdiction
over the RCMP and that they only wished to investigate why the FPF had
threatened to arrest him on June 24th, 2004.

41.  The Plaintiff states that read a few legal actions involving the
NBPC. He truly believes that NBPC has a mandate to oversee the actions
of the RCMP in the employ of municipalities and the government of NB.
On April 12, 2013 an employee denied that the NBPC it has any concerns
with the RCMP, so he forwarded the NBPC a judgment with an important
statement. Whenever he called the NBPC afterwards she did not allow
him to speak to anyone and denied receiving any emails even though
several were published on the Internet. The judgment pertains to
Miramichi Agricultural Exhibition Association Ltd. v. Chatham (Town)
1995 CanLII 3862 (NB QB). The statement reads as follows:

“Section 20 of the Police Act authorizes the Police Commission to
assess the adequacy of each police force and the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police and determine whether each municipality and the
Province is discharging its responsibility for the maintenance of an
adequate level of policing.”

42.  The Plaintiff states that in 2014 a confidential letter from the
lawyer who is now the chair of the NBPC was published by Charles
Leblanc. Within the aforesaid letter by a lawyer who was an officer in
the Canadian Forces when the Plaintiff was illegally barred in 2004
explained why he and some other unnamed lawyers claimed that the Chief
of the FPF and the NBPC did not have jurisdiction over the legislative
properties in order to investigate the wrongs of the members of FPF
under the Police Act. The lawyers claimed that whereas the police were
acting under the orders of the Sergeant-at-Arms the immunity afforded
them by parliamentary privilege would be undermined if the Chief of
the FPF and the NBPC upheld the law and the Charter.

43.  The Plaintiff states that as soon as he read the aforesaid letter
he had a deeper understanding as to why the NBPC and the FPF had
ignored his concerns for ten years and have refused to answer hard
copy or an email or even come to the phone or return a call for ten
years. He did manage to talk the lawyer who wrote the letter. The
lawyer just like another lawyer who was the Chair of the NBPC since
2004 was offended that the Plaintiff would dare to call his law office
instead of the NBPC. They both knew the reason was because every time
he called the NBPC, the Commissioners and their executive directors
were never available. They definitely did not return calls or answer
emails from the Plaintiff. The assistant who had denied receiving any
emails during his last conversation with her in May of 2015 said that
NBPC was never going to talk to him again. It appears the NBPC believe
that parliamentary privileges extend to them as well. Whether or not
that is true the NBPC must agree that the RCMP have no civilian
oversight whatsoever and that it is the only police force that has
jurisdiction to investigate the actions of the Crown on parliamentary
properties, the Canadian Forces and their semi-retired cohorts within
the Corps of Commissionaires. It appears to the Plaintiff that the
NBPC will not investigate the RCMP and in return the RCMP will not
investigate them. However, they do report to the Crown and the Crown
answers to the citizens it purportedly serves and protects.

44.  The Plaintiff states that claimed parliamentary privileges of
public officials are not above the rule of law just because some
unnamed lawyers deem it to be so. Some of the privileges
parliamentarians lay claim to cannot be found in the Constitution or
any other Act. They are implied by longstanding parliamentary
traditions and seldom challenged in a court of law.

45.  The Plaintiff states that claimed parliamentary privileges must
not be exercised secretly by the Crown against a citizen of an open
and just democracy because he visited parliamentary properties while
exercising his rights under the Charter and attempting to unseat its
political friends. He vividly recalls the last encounter with the
Sergeant-at-Arms that caused the Crown to create a “Barring Notice”.

46.  The Plaintiff states that on or about March 24th, 2006 he went to
the Office of the Conflict of Interest Commissioner of NB to give him
the same documents he had promised the Commissioner of Federal
Judicial Affairs, the Clerk of the Privy Council, Independent MP Andre
Arthur, Independent MLA Tanker O’Malley and many others. The
Commissionaire guarding door would not allow him in the building or
take the documents. The Sergeant-at-Arms must have been notified
because he was soon to appear and threatened to have the Plaintiff
arrested again. He asked why this time. The Sergeant-at-Arms said he
had already been warned to stay off legislative property. The
Plaintiff pointed out the fact that he was not on the legislative
property across the street but if the Crown wished to press false
charges against him the police should be called then he would look
forward to arguing the Sergeant-at-Arms in a court of law. The
Sergeant-at-Arms claimed that they were standing on parliamentary
property but did not call the police.

47.  The Plaintiff states that he then informed the Sergeant-at-Arms
if he thought he had a legal right to bar a citizen from parliamentary
properties he should have the Crown put the reasons to do so in
writing just like the NBPC had demanded of him when he complained of
the Sergeant-at-Arms and the FPF about their malevolent actions
against him two years before. There was no response from the
Sergeant-at-Arms to that simple statement.

48.  The Plaintiff states that he then asked the Sergeant-at-Arms in
front of witnesses if he still thought he had jurisdiction over him on
King Street and the response was yes. So the Plaintiff gave him the
documents and a CD destined for the Conflict of Interest Commissioner
and demanded an answer in writing. The Sergeant-at-Arms took the
documents but refused to sign a receipt for them. He tried to take
picture but the Sergeant-at-Arms crossed King Street and around the
corner too quickly. The Plaintiff received no answer from Conflict of
Interest Commissioner about his concerns. He called and emailed a copy
of the cover letter to the Commissioner’s office to see if it received
his documents and was ignored. The Commissionaire watching that day
knows who took the documents.

49.  The Plaintiff states that whereas there was no federal oversight
of the securities exchange business and no civilian oversight of the
RCMP, he took his concerns to the highest officials of each province
who represented their governments and the Crown. By the end of July in
2005, he emailed and called the offices of the Premiers and Lieutenant
Governors eight provinces. The Premier of Alberta did speak to the
Plaintiff after he staged a parade on Wall Street in order to promote
his province and that conversation did not go well. In early August
2005 he met the Alberta Premier’s challenge and included all provinces
in their argument. The Premiers and Lieutenant Governors received by
way of their Attorney General hard copy of many documents and a CD
similar to those acknowledged by the Governor General and the
Lieutenant Governors of NB and NL in 2004. They were sent by
registered US mail (signature required). Since that time not one
Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General or Premier has responded to the
Plaintiff other than the occasional insulting email. Over the past ten
years the offices of the Attorney Generals for Nova Scotia, Manitoba,
Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and Newfoundland admitted on
the telephone that his documents are in their files. However, not one
would person was willing to explain why and who had determined his
communication and evidence did not deserve an answer. The offices of
the Attorney Generals for Canada, Ontario, Quebec and Prince Edward
Island denied having anything from the Plaintiff. Those offices could
not explain how registered mail sent signature required to their boss
could get lost. Ten years later several provinces are attempting to
join with the other provinces to oversee the securities exchange
business through one corporation. The Crown must admit that corruption
can be the only reason why all the Attorney Generals in Canada would
continue to ignore a Canadian whistleblower’s documents that employees
and Inspector Generals of the US Treasury Dept. and agents of the
Crown in the United Kingdom have acknowledged beginning in January of
2002. All of the Attorney Generals of Canada should have noticed that
the Plaintiff was capable of creating and arguing lawsuits against the
Attorney General of Massachusetts and embarrassing the US Attorney
when he attempted to make the complaints illegally evaporate “Ex
Parte”. This complaint proves this statement is true.

50.  The Plaintiff states that he has had many conversations with many
Canadian law enforcement authorities etc. about his documentation etc.
and he was usually the one to make first contact. However, in 2008 he
was rather surprised when the office of the Auditor General of Canada
called him on their own accord not long after he had received a
response from the Commission of Public Sector Integrity to a complaint
he made in 2007. The person who called was very elusive about the
reason the Auditor General was contacting him but he gathered from the
brief conversation someone was talking to the Commission of Public
Sector Integrity. So he called the lawyer who just sent him the very
strange response to see if she had changed her mind. She recognized
the Plaintiff voice even though it had been six months since they had
talked and asked him to hold the line. Thus the Plaintiff surmised she
was expecting his call. Apparently she was because the Plaintiff was
surprised once again when a man who would not identify himself came on
the line claiming to be corporate security and threatened to have him
arrested if the Plaintiff ever called their Commission again. The
Plaintiff was not surprised to hear in late 2010 that the Auditor
General had been auditing the Commission of Public Sector Integrity.
The Plaintiff contacted the person in charge of the Freedom of
Information to see if the Auditor General had his complaint. He was
not surprised to see the Office of Auditor General claim that they did
not have his file. What surprised him was the fact that Auditor
General dared to deny it in writing.

51.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown is well aware that the last
responses that he received from the Office of the Auditor General, the
Privy Council Office, the Commission of Public Complaints Against the
RCMP, the Commission of Public Sector Integrity and actions of the
RCMP against the Plaintiff in 2014 and 2015 have caused him quit
looking for ethical conduct to come from anyone employed in the public
service of Canada. In March of 2015 byway of an ethical lawyer in
British Columbia the Plaintiff, the Commissioner of the RCMP and his
legal department that whereas the RCMP has refused to investigate
itself then it should at least stop harassing his family and wait to
this lawsuit and his next one.

52.  The Plaintiff states that from July of 1982 until July of 2008
the wrongful actions of the Crown and its cohorts against him were
usually covert and very difficult to prove because it typically
involved the word of the several police officers against his alone.
The Crown should have noticed that amongst the documents that the
Plaintiff provided it in 2004 there are two documents from the
Attorney General of NY. One document was labeled “Re corruption”
(reference no. 04/000233). The Plaintiff forwarded the Attorney
General of Canada amongst others emails containing his recent
communications in 2015 with the Attorney General of NY about that
file. The Crown should be aware that the Attorney General of NY in
2004 became the Governor of NY and that he was arrested by the FBI in
2008 while he was outside of his jurisdiction in the US Capital but
never prosecuted for any offence. The RCMP falsely arrested the
Plaintiff when he returned to the Capital District of NB shortly
afterwards. The RCMP practiced their wrongs on private property
without a warrant or due process of law and never placed any charges
against the Plaintiff as well. The downturn of the stock market in NY
within months of both arrests caused a major worldwide recession. On
October 8, 2008 the Plaintiff finally received an answer from the
Prime Minister of Iceland whose Canadian Ambassador received exactly
the same documents the Speaker in the House of Commons received in May
of 2006 that his Sergeant-At- Arms refused to answer. In December of
2008 Bernie Madoff was arrested by the FBI in NY and by March of 2008
the US Attorney in NY and the SEC in Washington admitted in writing
that the Plaintiff was involved in the Madoff matter and that his
documents had been filed under seal and against the Plaintiff’s
wishes. On September 8, 2015, the Office of the Inspector General of
the SEC sent the Plaintiff and email suggesting that the Plaintiff
file a new complaint within their website. The Plaintiff was quick to
inform the SEC and many law enforcement authorities in Canada of his
indignation as the news broke about the possible criminal actions of
KPMG, the very auditors he was complaining of with regards to his
family’s interests and the Madoff matter. The Plaintiff as usual has
been ignored as of this date. However the Plaintiff has noticed a
sudden upturn in visits to websites where his words and work are
published. It is no coincidence.

53.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown cannot deny that the Arar
matter proved that the Canadian and American law enforcement
authorities have had an agreement to share their questionable
information and that Canadians do suffer from their unconfirmed
suspicions. The very same law enforcement authorities attacked a
whistleblower when he gave them irrefutable evidence to cause an
investigation of their wrongs. A recent judgment of the Supreme Court
of Canada (SCC), Wakeling v United States of America, 2014 SCC 72,
allows the RCMP to share their surveillance wiretap tapes of Canadian
citizens with Americans. However, the RCMP and the FBI etc. do not
wish to deal with American wiretap tapes of a mob that definitely
practices its crimes across many borders. The lawyer working for the
Plaintiff’s wife in a sincere effort to see justice served sent
several of the original wiretap tapes to a US Senator who was a chair
of the US Judiciary Committee after polling day for the election of
the 39th Parliament. The lawyer did so on or about day the Governor
General witnessed the first Conservative Cabinet Ministers of the
current Canadian government swear an oath to the Crown. The Plaintiff
sent proof of this statement to many members of the 39th Parliament
before a confidence vote on its first budget. An opposition member
acknowledged it but ignored it and only answered in a fashion that his
opinions about sending the Canadian Forces into combat agreed with the
Plaintiff’s.

54.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown is well aware that until July
15th, 1982 the Plaintiff held a great respect for her servants in the
RCMP. The Crown cannot deny that he explained the reasons for his
change of mind with regards to the RCMP in his communications to the
Commissioner of the RCMP, the FBI, the US Treasury Department and the
Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT)
amongst many others byway of fax and certified US Mail in November and
December of 2003. As the Plaintiff stated in paragraph 3 his ire was
raised when the Deputy Prime Minister chose to acknowledge his
concerns only after he received acknowledgment of a complaint on file
with the US Department of Homeland Security.

55.  The Plaintiff states that he knew in September of 2004 that the
Crown and the Americans were never going to uphold the law in regards
to his concerns as he saw his tracked US Mail to DFAIT being forwarded
elsewhere and his tracked mail to the RCMP evaporated from the Canada
Post records. Furthermore his home phone line was cut right after
Byron Prior notified him he was being much harassed and his American
lawyer Barry Bachrach called to say that recent actions of the FBI and
others had frightened him and that for the benefit of his family he
was staying away from the Plaintiff and not going to court with on
October 1, 2004. The Plaintiff expecting foul play prepared his wife
to notify his Septs who held his Durable Power of Attorney and to
visit Josie Maguire, the same person in the Canadian Consulate in
Boston whom he sent his documents to on December 16, 2003. On October
1, 2004 a judge acted ethically and recused himself after witnessing
the Plaintiff sign an affidavit and file it in the docket of the court
along with hundreds of supporting documents proving the malicious
prosecution by a layman clerk with no mandate to create a criminal
prosecution. On September 3, 2003, the Plaintiff gave the police
surveillance wiretap tapes that he had shown to the NBPC to the
Suffolk County District Attorney before he stood before a sub
municipal court to demand that it prove jurisdiction to hear a
criminal prosecution involving a prison term and what right did a
clerk have to summon a Canadian citizen across an international border
to answer unknown criminal charges after the Boston Police would not
discuss anything with him and the District Attorney claimed in writing
that they were not involved in the matter. The court then changed its
plan and he was called before another judge who read the affidavit and
immediately sent the Plaintiff to jail held under the charges of
“other” in solitary confinement with no chance of bail. The actions of
the Plaintiff’s wife in Boston and his Septs in Canada caused a member
of the RCMP and Josie Maguire to meet with him inside the American
jail to advise him that they could not help him and because he must
obey the laws of other countries he visits and then gave him an
amazing document signed by a judge that had been faxed to them by the
very clerk who had him falsely imprisoned.

56.  The Plaintiff states that in response he thanked the Crown’s
representatives in the USA for the proof of malice and showed them a
faxed copy of the letter from the Governor General dated September 11,
2004 that he had received just before his home phone line was cut. He
informed them that perhaps the Crown should expect a few lawsuits
against it in Canada and the USA then dismissed them.

57.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown and the Americans have always
demanded that the Plaintiff keep his interactions in confidence with
the RCMP, the FBI, the US Treasury Dept. and other secretive law
enforcement authorities. The Plaintiff as a whistleblower about
financial crimes proved that he did keep his concerns with the federal
agents in Canada and the USA in confidence until Canada Day 2002 when
he began filing his exhibits supporting two lawsuits in an American
court. He continued to keep in confidence with the FBI the fact that
he was in possession of hundreds of police surveillance wiretap tapes
until April 1, 2003 when the US Secret Service and the Milton Police
Department appeared at his door in the middle of the night with false
allegations of a presidential threat and threatening extraordinary
rendition because the Plaintiff was a foreign national just like Maher
Arar. The Plaintiff called the RCMP headquarters the following day to
inquire if they were informed about the visit the night before by the
Secret Service. Some lady who claimed she was a lawyer said the RCMP
knew all about the Plaintiff. She hung the phone when she was asked if
the RCMP had listened to the police surveillance wiretap tapes he had
given to the FBI. The conversation with the RCMP lawyer caused the
Plaintiff to begin sharing a true copy of only one wiretap tape with
hundreds of members of the bar and other law enforcement authorities
in Canada and the USA. He has received an incredible number of
incompetent responses. He only sent a few of the responses with the
Crown thus far. There are many more.

58.  The Plaintiff states that it is important to inform the Federal
Court what is on the CD that the Governor General’s office
acknowledged having two copies of in paragraph 8. It is a true copy of
an American police surveillance wiretap tape.

59.  The Plaintiff states that in his opinion he sees no harm in it
being heard in public in Federal Court. He published copies of it in
two American Internet domains in 2008 after the RCMP falsely arrested
him and attempted to have him certified as mentally ill. The actions
of the RCMP caused the Crown to have the problem the American’s have
had since 2004 when they tried the same malicious trick rather than
uphold the law. The problem is that the Plaintiff’s health has no
bearing on irrefutable hard evidence. He should not be in possession
of police surveillance wiretap tapes that offend the civil rights of
many American citizens. With regards to this complaint about being
illegally barred from parliamentary properties, the plaintiff must
point out that the Commissioner of the RCMP and the Minister of Public
Safety knew of the American police surveillance wiretap tapes in 2003.
Furthermore in 2004 the RCMP and a catholic priest had several
original wiretap tapes and the FPF, the NBPC, many members of the bar
and public officials received a true copy of CDs the Governor General
acknowledged before the Plaintiff was falsely imprisoned in the USA.
The aforesaid problem is getting worse because every day more people
around the world are aware of the wiretap tapes and two of the tapes
have been downloaded a number of times by unknown parties. The
Plaintiff cannot take them back even if he wanted to. The public has
always taken far more interest about what is recorded on the wiretap
tapes than his whistleblowing efforts about financial crimes but that
could change anytime. Sooner or later someone will recognize who the
people recorded on the tapes are and it may generate many lawsuits in
the USA without involving the Plaintiff but has many more he has yet
to reveal. The Plaintiff still has a number of wiretap tapes in his
possession and several were stolen by the FPF along with his
motorcycle. Other tapes are scattered about in Canada and the USA with
people he trusts far more than any member of the RCMP or the FBI.
Others tapes are hidden. Many of the wiretap tapes were no longer in
the Plaintiff’s possession for over ten years. He made certain no one
gave him any idea as to where most of the wiretap tapes are hidden but
he secured the proof of the wiretap tapes he had given to the RCMP and
various law enforcement authorities placed in the public record of
American courts and that his former lawyer sent to a US Senator.

60.  The Plaintiff states that before he left the USA, the Plaintiff
made the people he trusts far more than any other Yankee promise that
the tapes would surface if his American family were in jeopardy. It
was no longer safe for a family to live with its father in the USA or
Canada, too many corrupt law enforcement authorities and lawyers
working for mobsters knew he had the wiretap tapes. It was not his
fault that his family lost their interests because of the illegal
actions of family lawyers and their friends within the justice system.
The Plaintiff did the best he could in his Clan’s defence of their
homes and interests. He will die with a clear conscience about that
fact. However, he knew if his Clan suffered in any fashion because of
his actions trying to compel the RCMP and FBI to act ethically it
would be his fault because he knew the federal agents in Canada and
the USA were infinitely corrupt since 1982 when they began to call him
a drug dealer etc.

61.  The Plaintiff states that he and his wife agree that they should
have moved to Canada as they planned when they wed in 1991 but it was
a common decision to stay put in the USA. Simply put, the wiretap
tapes that put his Clan in jeopardy also offered the only way that a
proud but bankrupt father could protect his Clan in his forced absence
from the people he loves far more than life itself. Eleven years later
quite a number of the Yankee mobsters and their lawyers are now dead
or imprisoned. More importantly, the Plaintiff’s children are now
adults and live separately. The Plaintiff sees no need to keep any of
the wiretap tapes in confidence anymore. After the election of the
42nd Parliament, he will begin publishing more wiretap tapes in the
public domain. He will copyright them and consider them a form of
entertainment about true history of the mob and offer them for sale.
Any settlement of any future lawsuit about his knowledge of financial
crimes and his Clan’s stolen assets will be for their benefit and that
of their children. Their lawyers will need their father’s records in
order to assist them to that end. The Crown must understand that this
complaint is one many actions that are part of his records. The
wiretap tapes insure that there will be no statute of limitations.
With regards to this complaint, the Plaintiff reminds the Crown of
paragraph 48 and the Sergeant-at-Arms took a CD and documents.

62.  The Plaintiff states that the Clerk of Federal Court in the
Capital District of NB for reasons he will never understand mailed the
documents back to him instead of mailing them to the Commissioner of
Federal Judicial Affairs who was expecting them. So the Plaintiff
called that Commissioner’s office and then emailed a digital copy of
the cover letter and the clerk’s response and was ignored as well.

63.  The Plaintiff states that with regards to this complaint the
Crown should obey Section 18(2) of the Charter and serve the document
in two official languages. The “Barring Notice” should state who, when
and why he was found to be in “Contempt of the House”. The Crown
should not try to intimidate a citizen with a threat of arrest for an
implied breach of a contract about trespass on public property not
agreed to by him. The Crown should have published a proper “Barring
Notice” in the Royal Gazette so that all Canadians could read it
before attempting to arrest and charge any citizen for exercising his
right to freedom of assembly in and around the most important public
properties of all Canada.

64.  The Plaintiff states that in 2004 during his research of the
Crown barring citizens from parliamentary property, he found mention
of Louis Riel being barred from the House of Commons despite the fact
he had been democratically elected to the membership therein. However,
the Plaintiff could not find anything within the Charter or the
Constitution Act, 1967 or the Parliament of Canada Act, or the
Criminal Code about how the Crown could take such an action against a
citizen who had not been charged and found guilty with breaking an
applicable law first. He recorded his opinion of the Crown barring
citizens within the cover letters accompanying the documents sent to
the Governor General, the Prime Minister, a Canadian Senator, the Arar
Inquiry, the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada, the Premier, Attorney
General, Speaker of the House and Lieutenant Governor of NB, and the
Premier and Lieutenant Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) and
many others. All the public officials ignored the subject of barring.

65.  The Plaintiff states that in the summer of 2004 Byron Prior a
Canadian citizen told the Plaintiff that he too was barred under
threat of arrest from the legislative building of NL. Many
parliamentarians knew that the Plaintiff supported Byron Prior’s
pursuit of justice but he did not share his support of two newly
merged federal Conservative parties. In return Byron Prior did not
support his candidacy in the election of the 38th Parliament. They
remained friends until April of 2005. They did not consider Byron
Prior’s barring a coincidence so they decided to include Byron Prior
in the Plaintiff’s matters in order to show their support of each
other’s concerns about justice for their families. The Plaintiff has
monitored Byron Prior’s actions ever since although they are no longer
friends. Byron Prior enjoyed receiving a copy of one response in
particular and he and his associates used copies of some the
Plaintiff’s documents within at least five legal actions.

66.  The Plaintiff states that the response from the Lieutenant
Governor of NL is contrary to the opinions of the Deputy Prime
Minister of Canada and the Attorney General of NB. Clearly he believed
that the Attorney General of his province had the power to have crimes
investigated. The text of the letter Crown’s vice regal representative
in NL is as follows:
                                        GOVERNMENT  HOUSE
                                      Newfoundland and Labrador

                      “September 10th, 2004

     Dear Mr. Amos:

    The Lieutenant Governor has asked me to acknowledge receipt of
your letter dated 2 September, addressed directly to him, the
Honourable Danny Williams, the Honourable John Crosbie and Mr. Brian
Furey. He has asked me to tell you that he has neither the authority
nor the responsibility over matters such as those raised in your
letter and the associated material.

     Accordingly at his instructions, I have sent the material to the
Honourable Thomas Marshall, QC, the Attorney General and Minister of
Justice for Newfoundland and Labrador, with the request that he take
whatever further action he considers necessary and appropriate to deal
with it.

                                                Sincerely yours,

Leona Harvey

Secretary to Lieutenant Governor”

67.  The Plaintiff states that in 2004 the 37th Parliament and many
others in NB and NL were informed that he knew of Byron Prior and
Charles Leblanc and that he supported their pursuit of justice byway
of the social media. He called his fellow Maritimers after reading
their words about politicians and listened to the reasons why they
were collecting social assistance and could not afford computers. They
did not care about his concerns with politicians but he believed them
and offered his assistance by giving them computers. The Plaintiff
asked that they publish the truth about his actions and to serve
politicians copies of his documents. Leblanc publicly insulted the
Plaintiff after receiving his computer and stole documents he promised
to give to the Attorney General of NB and gave them to his activist
friends instead. Leblanc was asked why behaved in such a fashion and
he wrote back that he thought he was being funny and stated that he
was not a sheriff then sent an email asking if the Plaintiff was a
fair comparison to his dog. That email convinced the Plaintiff that
Leblanc was a Conservative insider because he had apparently read a
letter sent to the Attorney General. It did not take the Plaintiff
long to figure out who his activist friends were because Leblanc had
forwarded their email address along with pictures of his dog. Prior
was difficult to deal with but he was true to his word. It was he who
delivered the documents to the parties named in paragraph 53. In 2005
Prior was sued for libel within his website. The Plaintiff wrote his
defence and counterclaim and it remained on the Internet until 2010.
Prior’s one website had more visitors than all the blogs of Leblanc
until late 2006 when the New York Times reported that a judge found
Leblanc not guilty in a criminal trial and considered him to be a
legitimate journalist. As the readership of his blog soared, Leblanc
and all politicians became much better friends. In 2007 the Irving
media empire complained of the Plaintiff and Leblanc to Google and
Yahoo. In response the Plaintiff’s blog, two email accounts and all
his legal documents stored within Yahoo’s domain were deleted.
Leblanc’s blog was deleted then restored. The FPF arrested Leblanc
again in 2012. The Plaintiff reminded the Crown of a judgment of Byron
Prior finding Section 301 of the Criminal Code unconstitutional and
law professors came to Leblanc’s aid. The Plaintiff caused Leblanc’s
“other personality” blog to be deleted not the FPF.

68.  The Plaintiff states that the Crown is well aware of three legal
actions against Byron Prior. One action is a civil lawsuit for libel
filed in Supreme Court of NL in January of 2005 against Byron Prior by
a MP and that a publication ban was placed on the matter immediately.
Two are criminal prosecutions of Byron Prior for libel. One
prosecution under section 301 of the Criminal Code was found to be
unconstitutional in 2008. The Plaintiff was falsely imprisoned by the
RCMP in a mental ward of a hospital after he spread the word that the
Crown had lost. The Plaintiff does not know the judgment in the second
trial under section 300. He does know that in 2009 Byron Prior filed
some of the Plaintiff’s documents in the docket before he was
imprisoned in a mental hospital until early 2010.

69.  The Plaintiff states that it was not logical that Crown
considered Byron Prior’s actions on the legislative properties in NL
criminal. The Crown was arresting and prosecuting him in NL while the
RCMP were issuing him permits to do exactly the same thing in front of
the House of Commons for months at a time from the spring of 2006 to
at least the spring 2011. The Crown prosecutes and defends all
criminal actions at a provincial and federal level. If the Crown was
sincere in its prosecution of Byron Prior it should have arrested him
on the grounds of the House of Commons in the spring of 2006. Instead
the Crown had the RCMP and a lawyer whom the Plaintiff ran against in
the election of the 38th Parliament investigate Byron Prior’s concerns
at the request of his MP (Later appointed a Senator) and the Minister
of Justice (Who his left seat in the 41st Parliament midterm as
Minister of Public Safety and was appointed to be a judge).

70.  The Plaintiff states that with regards to this complaint he knows
for certain that because of his association with Byron Prior in early
2004 the Crown has had a conflict of interest that affects the
interests of nearly all the federal and provincial political parties
of Canada. The Crown is well aware that a law firm of a former Premier
and a MP of NL represented Byron Prior in the past. The Prime Minister
and his current Attorney General are well aware the Plaintiff
published copies of letters from them to Byron Prior as they sat in
opposition of the 37th Parliament.

71.  The Plaintiff states that in his opinion banning the publication
of legal documents after a public official sues a citizen for libel or
when the Crown decides to prosecute the same citizen twice for libel
does not serve the public interest and raises many questions about the
actions of the Crown. Whereas the Plaintiff truly believes such
actions only serve to protect the Crown and public officials from
being embarrassed by their words and deeds since 2002 he has published
on the Internet every document involving him that he has deemed
necessary to expose the public corruption just like Byron Prior did
beginning in 2002. That was how Byron Prior discovered the Plaintiff
and contacted him in early 2004 and the Plaintiff discovered and
contacted Charles Leblanc in Fredericton NB and later introduced them
to Werner Bock of NB and his concerns. The Plaintiff believes that is
why the Crown bars and imprisons its opponents who are adept with the
social media. Corporate media protects privacy and never mentions the
malice because like Louis Riel the Crown has deemed the poor souls to
be mentally ill.

72.  The Plaintiff states that in early 2006 Saga Books of Calgary,
Alberta published a book about Byron Prior and the MP whom the
Plaintiff ran against in 2004 and hopefully again in 2014 had
researched Byron Prior’s matters. His report to the Minister of
Justice in late 2006 has not been made public. More importantly the
lawyer who has been the MP representing Fundy Royal for the past
eleven years and that the former Minister of Public Safety
acknowledged an email from the Plaintiff about Byron Prior that
contained the entire text of his website before the writ was dropped
for the election of the 38th Parliament. The aforesaid email exchange
has been published in the Internet for eleven years. Everything on the
Internet published by Byron Prior beginning in 2002 has been removed.
The last comments of Byron Prior that the Plaintiff could find
published on the Internet was within a few videos a “Freeman”
character named Max published within the YouTube domain. It was an
interview of Byron Prior as he was protesting on the grounds of the
House of Commons the day after the Prime Minister was found in
“Contempt of Parliament” and his most contemptuous minority mandate
became a matter of history. His majority mandate is history and the
Plaintiff seeks relief.

73.  The Plaintiff states that he did see a comment posted in a public
Facebook of one of Byron Prior’s many associates in British Colombia
claiming that Byron Prior had been arrested in Ottawa in 2012 as had
several other of his associates across Canada for various reasons
during 2012. The whereabouts of Byron Prior are not known to the
Plaintiff but he does know that Charles Leblanc lives one block up the
same street as the Federal Court in Fredericton is located. Leblanc is
being prosecuted by the Crown and suing the FPF at the same time. It
is unlikely he would move far from the city soon. If the Crown wishes
to argue this complaint Byron Prior and Charles Leblanc should be
summoned to testify about what they know of this matter and of their
being illegally barred from parliament properties as well. Failing
that the Plaintiff has collected a large amount of documentation
including documents, videos and webpages etc. He can provide byway of
digital media much evidence for the Crown to review about the concerns
of Byron Prior and Charles Leblanc and their association with the
Plaintiff and many others.

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 Docket no. 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 it did not serve Canadian interests and reputation to
allow Barry Winters to publish the following words three times over
five years after he began his bragging:

Why Canada Stood Tall!

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

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

"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."

http://baconfat53.blogspot.com/2010/06/canada-and-united-states.html

"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.

Jurisdiction and Venue

89.  The Plaintiff states that Federal Court has jurisdiction in this
claim against the Crown pursuant to section 17 (1) of the Federal
Courts Act and he proposes that this action be tried at Fredericton,
New Brunswick.

90.  The Plaintiff prays that the Federal Court does not strike this
complaint against the Crown. It is not without merit nor is it abusing
of the process of this Court. This claim is definitely not frivolous
or vexatious or immaterial or redundant.

91.  The Plaintiff states he is not a lawyer or studied law at any law
school. This is a Pro Se complaint composed by him to the best of his
ability as a layman after studying Canadian laws on his own for ten
years. He is compelled to act Pro Se because not one lawyer of the
many whom he has approached in Canada and the USA over the course of
the past fifteen years would assist him in any complaint that would
impeach the character of an auditor or a fellow member of the bar or
embarrass a justice system in which they practice law for a fee.
However, many lawyers have been paid from the Plaintiff’s interests as
they worked diligently to cover up many wrongs practiced against his
family for many years. The Plaintiff considers two of the most
offensive to him are the lawyers who are the current Governor General
and Attorney General of Canada. The Plaintiff is acting upon a
suggestion of a former Governor General after diligently attempting to
settle this matter with all the Attorney Generals of Canada and the
RCMP for twelve years.

92.  The Plaintiff states that must restate the simple truth of this
matter. It still is as he explained to the NBPC in 2004. The
Sergeant-at-Arms in NB illegally barred the Plaintiff for political
reasons. His actions as a whistleblower the RCMP and the liberal
federal government were the reasons. The Plaintiff met former Premiers
Bernard Lord and David Alward (Consular in Boston) On October 3, 2006,
Premier Lord studied the “Barring Notice” after being thanked for
putting the Crown’s malice in writing. Alward and a RCMP member heard
Lord claim he knew nothing about it and suggest that the Plaintiff sue
the Sergeant-at-Arms.

93.   The Plaintiff states that on October 3, 2006 he quickly proved
what the political lawyer Bernard Lord had claimed in front of his
former Cabinet Minister was not true by presenting him with a document
signed by his former Attorney General. Bernard Lord quickly responded
that the Plaintiff should sue him too. The former Premier had nothing
further to say when he was shown a copy of the Plaintiff’s cover
letter that came with the documents and CD given to his constituency
office in Moncton NB in early July of 2004. The Plaintiff complained
of Premier Lord expelling him from the legislature building for
political reasons not legal within the first paragraph of the
aforesaid cover letter. The Attorney General had answered the
Plaintiff on the Crown’s behalf after admitting he had received the
documents given to Premier Lord and another former Premier Frank
McKenna the year before his was appointed to be the Canadian
Ambassador to the USA.

94.  The Plaintiff states that on October 30, 2006, after he had read
the news and discussed Justice Dennis O’Connor’s report on the Arar
matter with many people that he knew Wayne Easter and Commissioner
Giuliano Zacardelli were profound liars he received a call from Sgt.
Vaillancourt of J Division of the RCMP. The Plaintiff refused to make
a deal with the RCMP and his reasons were published on the Internet
for years. Wayne Easter’s words quoted by CBC were the reason the RCMP
called. They are as follows:

“Wayne Easter, the former solicitor-general who presided during the
Arar ordeal, appeared to contradict earlier testimony from RCMP head
Giuliano Zacardelli today when he answered questions at a commons
committee. Responding to Justice Dennis O’Connor’s report on the Arar
case at the public safety and national security committee, Easter said
he was never told the RCMP had passed on false information to the
United States and was never told the RCMP tried to correct it, as
claimed by Zacardelli.

“I was not informed that the RCMP had provided inaccurate information
to the U.S.,” Easter told the MPs.”

95.  The Plaintiff states that whereas the Prime Minister apologized
to Maher Arar on behalf of Canada and made $10-million settlement
after the government wasted several years and squandered an incredible
amount of taxpayer funds on legal fees generating Justice Dennis
O’Connor’s report, the Plaintiff deserves at least the same sort of
settlement in this matter.

96.  The Plaintiff states that whereas he has been barred from access
to parliamentary properties for a period of eleven years and that the
aforesaid properties include ten provinces and the Nation’s Capital
District the apologies and amount he seeks in settlement is very
reasonable and certainly justified.

The plaintiff therefore asks this court for the following relief:

(a)    A public apology by the Prime Minister and each Premier for the
illegal barring of a citizen from access to parliamentary properties.

(b)   A declaration signed by the Minister of Public Safety and
witnessed by the Governor General stating that the Canadian government
will no longer allow the RCMP and the Canadian Forces to harass the
Plaintiff and his Clan.

(c)    A settlement of eleven million dollars ($11,000,000.00) in the
form of relief and punitive damages for being barred from eleven
parliamentary properties for eleven years.

(d)   Costs to the Plaintiff in bringing this matter before the court

Dated at Fredericton, NB the 15th day of September 2015

Trudeau says he 'pushed back' on WE contract due to family ties — but didn't recuse himself

Trudeau says he withdrew the grant proposal from a May 8 cabinet meeting to give civil servants more time


Peter Zimonjic, Kathleen Harris· CBC News· Posted: Jul 30, 2020 1:50 PM ET



Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his chief of staff, Katie Telford, are questioned by MPs on the Commons finance committee over the decision to give WE Charity a contribution agreement for a $900-million student grant program. 0:00

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a House of Commons committee today that, despite his family's ties with WE Charity, he did not place himself in a conflict of interest through his involvement in cabinet discussions on getting the charity to run a $900 million student grant program — but he apologized again for failing to recuse himself from those discussions.

"I was not in a position of conflict of interest. I apologized because of the perception [over] ties with my family. I should have recused myself," Trudeau said in French.

Trudeau said that, when his government was working on the grant program, events related to the pandemic were moving fast and his government was sprinting to get programs out the door. He said that haste was part of the reason why he failed to recuse himself from cabinet discussions regarding WE Charity.


"That is certainly part of the context but I don't think it is the whole reason why I didn't recuse myself," Trudeau said. "Youth issues have been something that I have been deeply involved with all my career, and I care deeply about the idea of youth service."

Trudeau also claimed he slowed down the approval process for the grant program, pulling it from the May 8 cabinet meeting to give the public service more time to review it.

"I did not influence the public service to choose this organization. Indeed, when the public service came forward with this organization, I said, 'You know what? Let's put the brakes on that. Let's make sure it's done absolutely right because there are going to be questions of the connections with my family on this,'" he said.

"Yes, in hindsight I should have recused myself and perhaps the program would be delivering for students right across the country right now."
On May 21, he said, public servants said they had done their due diligence and were confident in recommending WE Charity as the administrator.

"This proposal mattered to me and, instead of encouraging it along, as some people say, because it was somehow connected to my family, I actually slowed it down, pushed back on it, to try and make sure that everything was done exactly right," he said. "Because I knew there would be questions asked because of the links to the family.


"But in no way was this benefiting my mother or my brother, to be creating a grant program for students to volunteer in their communities right across the country."

Watch: Trudeau says he only learned of WE proposal on May 8:


In his opening statement Prime Minister JustinTrudeau said he had expected the Canada Service Corps would deliver the Canada Student Service Grant, and first learned on May 8 that WE Charity was being proposed to deliver the program. 3:25

Trudeau also said he does not know the details of his family members' private business interests or how much money they might have received in expenses from WE Charity.

"My mother and my brother are professionals in their own right who have engagements and have for many, many years, with many different organizations across the country, and I don't have the details of their work experiences or expenses," Trudeau said.

Under questioning by Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre, Trudeau said that his wife Sophie works for free as a mental health advocate and that the expenses she's collected from WE Charity for her volunteer work have been cleared by the ethics commissioner's office.

"This was unpaid work my wife was doing for a cause that she believes in deeply, talking about de-stigmatization of mental health, empowerment of young people," he said.


Watch: Poilievre presses PM on family's payments from WE:


Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre pushes the prime minister on how much money has been paid by WE Charity to Margaret Trudeau, then assumes chairing the committee when Liberal MP Wayne Easter's power goes out — and presses the PM again. 3:26

"We got approval from the ethics commissioner that she could volunteer with this organization and have expenses related to the volunteerism reimbursed."

Poilievre pressed Trudeau for details of the financial relationship his family had with WE Charity.

The prime minister said that, according to the Conflict of Interest Act, family members are defined solely as spouses and dependants.

It was WE Charity or nothing: Trudeau

Trudeau also said that he never spoke with his staff about WE Charity or the the possibility of getting it to run the student grant program until May 8. He said he never spoke with WE co-founders Marc or Craig Kielburger about the program.

"Until that date, I had not spoken at all to my staff about WE Charity in relation to the [Canada Student Service Grant]. In fact, as of May 8, it was my belief that a supercharged version of the Canada Service Corps would deliver the program. From my perspective, WE Charity hadn't come up," Trudeau said.

"In fact, they said if we wanted this program to happen, it could only be with WE Charity," Trudeau added. "The choice was not between providers. It was between going ahead with WE Charity to deliver the program or not going ahead with the program at all."


Trudeau said he asked why the public service tapped WE Charity to run the program.

"We were told that the Canada Service Corps would not be able to scale up to deliver the program in time," he said. "This was disappointing but ultimately not surprising to me, given my understanding of the state of the Canada Service Corps' development and other demands facing the public service at the time."

Next steps

Trudeau was asked if he now feels WE Charity was capable of running a program as large as the Canada Student Service Grant program.

"We will never know because they pulled out of being able to deliver the program, partially because I hadn't recused myself and created complications here," he said. "And that's something that I deeply regret."

Trudeau said cabinet is now considering alternatives to reward student volunteers who work in their communities.

"As we continue to look for ways to deliver the Canada Student Service Grant, I know the Canada Service Corps, which is internal to government, is something we're looking at very carefully," he said.


Trudeau took questions from the House of Commons finance committee for an hour and a half this afternoon. The committee of MPs is digging into why the government picked WE Charity to run the grant program and why the PM did not recuse himself from related cabinet talks, given that his family members had been paid by the organization.

Opposition MPs pushed to have him remain in the hot seat for three hours but he only extended his time at committee by another 30 minutes.

After Trudeau's appearance, his chief of staff, Katie Telford, took the chair and is now answering questions about her role in the now defunct deal with WE Charity.

Telford repeated Trudeau's assertion that the public service advised the government it had a choice between going forward with a program run by WE Charity or not going ahead with a program at all.

"Over the past three weeks, I have thought a lot about this program. I thought about what we could do better and how we could apply lessons going forward," she said.

"In hindsight, I recognize that while we did ask many questions to make this program a success, we could have done better. We could have done more. We could have added yet another layer to avoid any potential perception of favouritism."


Watch: Andrew Scheer describes line of questioning for Trudeau's appearance


Leader of the Opposition Andrew Scheer, in Regina, spoke with reporters about the questions he wants to hear Prime Minister Justin Trudeau answer today before a Commons finance committee hearing on the WE Charity scandal. 0:52

Earlier today, Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer laid out the key questions his team was planning to put to Trudeau.

Scheer said he hoped the prime minister would deliver clear, straightforward answers but predicted Trudeau will try to run out the clock with rehearsed replies.

"Liberals on that committee, whether it's the members or the chair of the committee, will they use their opportunities today to protect the prime minister, or will they allow Canadians to get the answers that they deserve?" he asked.

WE Charity has been under public scrutiny since the controversy erupted, with news headlines about board member resignations, allegations of staff mistreatment and mass layoffs due to the financial squeeze caused by the pandemic.

"If he knew about some of these things and he allowed it to proceed, then he will be admitting that he played a role in this corruption. And if he didn't know, that means that nobody did due diligence on a $900 million program," Scheer said.


New Brunswick Liberal MP Wayne Long, who has broken party ranks in past, issued a public letter Wednesday saying he is "deeply disappointed" by the government's decision-making process and its failure to recognize a potential conflict of interest.

He said that failure has undermined the good work the government has done to help Canadians through the pandemic and urged ministers to be "fully transparent" regarding the decision-making process.

"To me, it is clear that changes must be made within both the Prime Minister's Office and throughout our government in order to ensure that we prevent such a systemic failure from occurring again," he said.

Trudeau's chief of staff Katie Telford is testifying before the finance committee this afternoon.

She was slated initially to appear for one hour, but the itinerary was amended this afternoon to extend her time before the committee to two hours.

""""Scheer said one hour is "non-sufficient" given the scope of the matter. He said he hopes the prime minister will deliver clear, straightforward answers but predicted Trudeau will try to run out the clock with rehearsed replies.""""

Of course the answers are rehearsed and no doubt he will try to beat the clock. an honest man would give straight forthright answers.

Reply to @Thomas MacDuff: I couldn't agree more. I just happened to do a search on the Canada Student Service Grant Program and found this which is rather strange considering the reality of the current situation. This is the official government site:
https://pm.gc.ca/en/news/backgrounders/2020/06/25/canada-student-service-grant. Aside from showing WE as the administrators for the program, you can see JT plastered all over the site as well as listing him as the team leader. You'd think after weeks of subterfuge training, the liberals would at least have the brains to correct their own website.

Power line crew rescues woman lost for days in Bathurst-area woods

Power line crew rescues woman lost for days in Bathurst-area woods

Saint-Isidore woman in relatively good condition after ordeal, police say



Gail Harding· CBC News· Posted: Jul 29, 2020 6:50 PM AT



Jenny McLaughlin, 34, was last seen at her home in Sainte-Isidore on July 15. (RCMP/Submitted)

A 34-year-old woman missing for 13 days was found alive in a swampy, densely wooded area near Bathurst on Tuesday by a transmission line crew.

Police believe Jenny McLaughlin of Saint-Isidore had been walking in circles. She told them she survived on berries and swamp water.

An East Coast Powerline crew member had been lowered by helicopter to do maintenance on a transmission tower, when he heard what he thought was a woman calling for help.


"He was looking around, he wasn't sure if he was hearing things," company business manager Ashley Walker said Wednesday.

But the man, alone on the tower, quickly realized he wasn't hearing things and radioed back to the fly yard, where the crew was based. A helicopter was sent to the area of the tower.

Walker said the woman told the power crew her name, she had been lost for six days and couldn't walk anymore.

But McLaughlin was last seen July 15 in jeans and a hoodie at her home on the Acadian Peninsula. Family and friends, RCMP and ground search and rescue crews had been trying to find her since she was reported missing two days later

Car and phone found

Her car was found July 18 blocking an ATV trail near the Red Brook Shelter in Rough Waters, south of Bathurst.

RCMP Cpl. Kevin Plourde said her cellphone was found Saturday during another search of the area.


Just as an expanded search was being planned for Wednesday, Plourde said, RCMP received a 911 call that a woman had been found.


East Coast Powerline shared the story of the crews' work on the company's Facebook page. (East Coast Powerline/Facebook)

The power company had used its helicopter to pinpoint McLaughlin's location late Tuesday afternoon.

 "She was located about 300 metres off the right of way," said Walker.

Walker said company workers hiked 2.4 kilometres, with a backboard and emergency supplies, to reach the woman. Other crew members accompanied RCMP and ambulance crews from the highway to the fly yard and then to where the woman was located.
I have never been this happy in my life. ​​​​
- James Hilt, Jenny McLaughlin's boyfriend
"Surprisingly, she was very responsive and talkative and extremely happy to see and talk to people after what I'm sure were some dreadful days in the woods," Walker said.

Walker said after finding a more suitable and closer location for the ambulance, McLaughlin was carried 1.25 kilometres by the crew through the woods and bog to a logging trail.


"She was safely transported out by our work crews through some dense woods, rough terrain on our backboard while being attended to by the medics."

Training paid off

Walker said the Nova Scotia-based company, which does power line and transmission tower repair and maintenance all over Canada and the United States, has dealt with other things in remote areas but nothing like this.

"We're very thankful that we were able to help and that we came across her, because if not it could have been a very different outcome that's for sure.

"We're thrilled with our guys and their level headed thinking and response. Our training paid off."

Plourde said the East Coast Powerline crew did an outstanding job to help stabilize McLaughlin and give her first aid until they arrived on scene.

Despite the experience in the woods, her condition was good, he said.


"I don't know how to say this but it's really impressive the condition she was in."Plourde said he couldn't provide details of the injuries McLaughlin suffered, but she was able to speak clearly to police.

"She told us she had sustained herself by drinking water in the swamps and other water sources she would find, and she was eating blueberries and raspberries that she found on the ground."

Plourde said McLaughlin did an outstanding job to survive in those conditions in a wooded area with swamps and bogs.

McLaughlin was found about three kilometres from where her car was located, but Plourde said they think she had been walking in circles.

"To respect her privacy we won't say why she was there."


Crews thanked

Plourde said RCMP were grateful for the help the power crew provided to the RCMP in getting McLaughlin to safety.

"It was really a rough terrain to extract her on a stretcher because due to the terrain we could not do an air medivac or ground medivac."

"It was a really good ending, in this case."

Plourde said MacLaughlin was taken to the Chaleur Regional Hospital, where she was treated and released.

In a Facebook post, her boyfriend, James Hilt, expressed his thanks to everyone who helped find MacLaughlin.

"After 13 days lost in the woods Jenny was found safe banged up but alive and is now home with her family."

Hilt thanked the RCMP, ground search and rescue crew and East Coast Powerline.

"Thanks to everyone. I have never been this happy in my life."

Conservative leadership debate in disarray after Lewis, MacKay back out

Organizer says 'show must go on' as MacKay calls for event to be rescheduled


The Canadian Press· Posted: Jul 29, 2020 9:29 PM ET

A new media organization's plan to host all four Conservative leadership candidates for a debate Wednesday was thrown into disarray when two of the contenders dropped out.

Leslyn Lewis announced hours before the event that her doctor had ordered her to stay away because she is battling an ear infection and has a fever, though she has tested negative for COVID-19.

Shortly after, Peter MacKay declared he wouldn't go either, saying it wouldn't be fair if only three of the four candidates were onstage, and called for the event to be rescheduled.



The event was organized by the newly formed Independent Press Gallery of Canada, run by Candice Malcolm, a conservative columnist and analyst.

The organization was set up this year, and journalists who wish to join must sign a declaration that they will not accept any government funding and sign onto a statement of journalistic ethics and principles.

Organizers decided to go forward with back-to-back "fireside chats" with the two remaining candidates, Erin O'Toole and Derek Sloan.

The "show must go on," Malcolm said in her opening remarks as she took a direct swipe at MacKay.

MacKay criticized for decision

Lewis is ill and organizers wish her well, Malcolm said, but MacKay, who lives in Toronto, made a choice.

"Leadership is about resiliency, courage and trust, and voters can judge for themselves what they think of Peter MacKay's last-minute decision to renege on his commitment and abandon this event," she said.



The Conservative Party hosted two official leadership debates in June, and all four candidates appeared at those.

The moderator for Wednesday's event was Andrew Lawton, who, along with Malcolm and several others, is part of the True North Centre for Public Policy.

The centre, a registered charity, describes itself as a non-governmental, non-partisan organization conducting research and investigative journalism.

In mid-May, True North published a piece attacking MacKay for refusing to sit down with its reporters for an interview, saying he was the only one of the four candidates who had yet to grant their request.

MacKay has granted interviews to other conservative outlets, though he has also skipped out on other leadership debates, including two hosted by groups of Conservative riding associations in both B.C. and Ontario.

He cited scheduling conflicts in both cases.



In his statement Wednesday, MacKay said he had been preparing for the debate when he learned Lewis couldn't make it.
"I was looking forward to taking part in tonight's debate to articulate my positive vision for the future of the Conservative Party and because of the role the Independent Press Gallery is taking in promoting free and fair speech," he said.

Lewis said missing a chance to participate in a debate hosted by the organization was a disappointment.

"I want to thank the Independent Press Gallery for their understanding, and I look forward to continuing to connect with voters from my home over the next little while [as] I recover and am able to meet with people in public once again," she wrote.

The debate comes as Conservative Party members are now filling out their ballots and sending them back by mail to party headquarters. The deadline for them to be returned is Aug. 21, and a winner is to be announced shortly after.
Lewis has been making steady gains in the race since she entered as a relative newcomer earlier this year.

Many party members have been posting photos of their marked ballots on social media, and while those are just a fraction of the 269,000 people eligible to vote, it has become common to see her name marked in second place on the ranked ballot used by the party.

She, O'Toole and Sloan are competing for a similar pool of voters, and for all three a key objective for Wednesday had been to make the case for a first-choice ranking on the ballot by contrasting themselves with their rivals.

Both Sloan and O'Toole focused more directly on their own positions as Lawton pushed them on questions including whether more "conservative" judges need to be appointed and why free-market conservatives still support government regulations of some agricultural commodities.

Orchard to sue MacKay to stop Alliance merger

CBC News · Posted: Nov 21, 2003 5:21 PM ET

Former leadership contender David Orchard and other Conservatives are launching legal action against Tory leader Peter MacKay Friday to stop the party from merging with the Canadian Alliance.
Although details about the litigation have not yet been released, former Tory cabinet minister Sinclair Stevens told the Globe and Mail that the lawsuit could focus on MacKay's broken promise to Orchard not to join the Alliance.
Stevens told the Globe that Orchard may intend to prove that MacKay violated a signed contract.
At the leadership convention in May, MacKay won Orchard's support by agreeing not to seek a merger with the Alliance.
Orchard spokesperson Rose-Marie Larsson said the lawsuit, to be launched in Toronto, will name MacKay personally.
Orchard adviser Marjaleena Repo has said she has a legal opinion that claims the merger violates the party's constitution.
The legal report says "to amend the constitution" a "national convention" is necessary "no mail-in or online balloting" and "no regional meetings." MacKay has denied he has broken the constitution and that all legal requirements have been met.

The "Canadian Press Gallery" , according to this article was formed by Candice Malcolm, a Conservative reporter and analyst - and instead of calling it the "CONSERVATIVE Press Gallery" they assume they are the only Canadians. I would have thought them taking over CBC would have been enough - but alas, Stephen Harper did away with the real Press Gallery, so now it is back - all for their own purpose.

Leslyn Lewis shaping up to be the story of the Conservative leadership race

Several key factors driving success of relative newcomer to Conservative Party


Kory Teneycke· for CBC News Opinion· Posted: Jul 29, 2020 4:00 AM ET



Leslyn Lewis withdrew from Wednesday's debate because she is battling an ear infection and has a fever, though she has tested negative for COVID-19. (Frank Gunn/The Canadian Press)

This column is an opinion by Kory Teneycke. A former director of communications for prime minister Stephen Harper, he managed the recent Ontario PC Party Campaign and is currently a partner at Rubicon Strategy. Teneycke has declared he will remain neutral in the federal Conservative leadership campaign and has recused himself from work Rubicon is providing for the Peter MacKay campaign. For more information about CBC's Opinion section, please see the FAQ.

I'll give you a sneak preview of "How I spent my summer"– in Saskatchewan. It has been a great opportunity, spending time reconnecting with my roots and with opinions not born in the Ottawa bubble. Anecdotal observations may not be scientific, but they have inspired me to make a few predictions going into the final weeks of the Conservative leadership campaign.

The first is that Leslyn Lewis is going to do very well.



I believe she will finish in second place overall and will win more votes in Saskatchewan than any other leadership candidate.

I say that because you find Lewis supporters everywhere here, and most of them are not particularly socially conservative. Without betraying confidences, many of them are very well established in the ruling provincial Saskatchewan Party – which is by far the most potent political organization in the province.
There is also a surge of unlikely urban support for Lewis outside the province.

Similar to Saskatchewan, much of it comes from party members who are often quite hostile to traditional social conservatives. I have spoken with urban, professional women and LGBTQ friends in the Conservative Party – all in the Greater Toronto Area – who are comfortable with Lewis's brand of conservatism, even if their first ballot support rests with another candidate.

Money has been surging as well.

Macleans magazine recently reported that fundraising for the Lewis campaign had crossed $1.2 million. A few short weeks later, the total for Lewis is approaching $1.7 million, according to her campaign team. That's close to what Maxime Bernier raised in the last leadership race, and would have ranked her as one of the best funded candidates in that race. It is a very noteworthy accomplishment.


Lewis doesn’t predominantly focus on social issues, but rather has pushed forward proposals across a broad range of policy areas. (Tijana Martin/Canadian Press)

So what is driving the success of this previously unknown candidate and relative newcomer to the Conservative Party?

While Lewis is a social conservative, her positions have nuance and sophistication. She frames her pro-life views around gender-selective abortion – the appalling practice of having an abortion based on the sex of the fetus, usually to terminate the pregnancy of unborn girls.

And unlike some social conservative candidates in the past, Lewis doesn't predominantly focus on social issues, but rather has pushed forward proposals across a broad range of policy areas. This race has often lacked much when it comes to policy innovation, and it's something any party rebuilding needs.

Lewis has been willing to come up with a broad range of policies. Her background includes a Masters degree in Environmental Studies, and she has put together a credible plan for Energy and the Environment that isn't just about opposing a carbon tax (which she does).

Members are excited to support an urban, well educated, professionally accomplished, Black woman as a candidate, in part because it counters the public perception (held with some cause) that the party is too rural, too male and too white. Would conservatives do better at the ballot box having more women in leadership roles? Absolutely.


From left: Conservative Party of Canada leadership candidates Derek Sloan, Erin O'Toole, Peter MacKay and Leslyn Lewis are seen at an English-language debate in Toronto on June 18. (Tijana Martin/The Canadian Press)

Another factor is the lack of enthusiasm for the two perceived front runners, Peter MacKay and Erin O'Toole.



As widely recognized, the historic differences between the two are nuanced at best. O'Toole spent most of the campaign marketing himself as a "True Blue" conservative – successfully attracting support, particularly in Western Canada among members from the Reform side of the party. The problem for O'Toole is the marketing pitch that he is a hardcore conservative doesn't really withstand much scrutiny.

The Lewis campaign has seen the same trend nationally that I have observed here in Saskatchewan, with many of her new supporters coming at the expense of the O'Toole campaign. They just didn't think he was conservative enough on issues like his carbon pricing proposal (often characterized as a carbon tax by opponents).
So how does this all play out?

I share the commonly held view that the MacKay campaign will be in the lead after the first ballot. Derek Sloan will fall off the ballot, with most of his support going to Leslyn Lewis. This could push her past O'Toole.

Or even more interesting, if the quiet momentum that has been building for the past weeks is strong enough, Lewis could be in second place already – before adding Sloan's votes.

If that is the case, there is a narrow path to victory for Lewis. If enough O'Toole supporters choose Lewis over MacKay as a second choice, we could have an electoral upset of historic proportions.

Reply to @Brian Dalke: "Harper correctly set aside his ideological views and put in deficit spending..."

Hardly, Brian. Harper was forced by the opposition to fund some stimulus spending in a recession that he didn't see (or pretended) wasn't coming. Harper's first act in 2006 was to cut the GST and that lost tax revenue accounted for two thirds of his 33% increase in our national debt (over 150 billion) after being handed a nice surplus by Paul Martin. Furthermore, all of Trudeau's deficits would have been non-existent if Harper had just left the GST alone. We now have an extra 200 billion (pre-pandemic) on our national debt for the children to pay off thanks to the GST cut. And that number is growing by over 20 billion annually.

Conservatives are so utterly incompetent when it comes to fiscal management, and they leave a mess afterwards for others to clean up. All they think about is tax cuts.

wants to impose their religious view on a firmly secular

Of course Christians can run for government. We have lots of

onto others.

who, no one is going to use government to impose their religious view
on the rest of us. Being "included" doesn't mean you don't have to
have the same respect for others view you have for your won. Some
beliefs are truly repulsive. That doesn't mean we have the person. It
also doesn't stop us from seeing they are misguided by their religion.

When I was a young man in the 80's and early 90's I used to vote for
the Progressive Conservative Party but when they merged with the
Alliance/Reform Party that changed everything for me. They're still
"too" conservative (especially socially) for my and a lot of other
Canadian's tastes and that isn't likely to change anytime soon.

Reply to @Brian Dalke: "Harper correctly set aside his ideological
views and put in deficit spending..."
Hardly, Brian. Harper was forced by the opposition to fund some
stimulus spending in a recession that he didn't see (or pretended)
wasn't coming. Harper's first act in 2006 was to cut the GST and that
lost tax revenue accounted for two thirds of his 33% increase in our
national debt (over 150 billion) after being handed a nice surplus by
Paul Martin. Furthermore, all of Trudeau's deficits would have been
non-existent if Harper had just left the GST alone. We now have an
extra 200 billion (pre-pandemic) on our national debt for the children
to pay off thanks to the GST cut. And that number is growing by over
20 billion annually.
Conservatives are so utterly incompetent when it comes to fiscal
management, and they leave a mess afterwards for others to clean up.

The rise of Wexit: Why internal party unity may soon be the least of the Conservatives' problems

Real threat to Tories comes from sameness of leadership race front-runners, not differences


Kory Teneycke· for CBC News Opinion· Posted: Jul 03, 2020 1:00 PM ET

This column is an opinion by Kory Teneycke. A former director of communications for prime minister Stephen Harper, he managed the recent Ontario PC Party Campaign and is currently a partner at Rubicon Strategy. Teneycke has declared he will remain neutral in the federal Conservative leadership campaign and has recused himself from work Rubicon is providing for the Peter MacKay campaign. For more information about CBC's Opinion section, please see the FAQ.

Healing the divisions in the federal Conservative caucus caused by the ongoing leadership race may soon be the least of the party's concerns – the bigger problem is the rise of Wexit.

Sounds dramatic, given that the greatest threat for most Canadians up to this point in the lacklustre leadership race has been the danger of being bored to death. Yet internally there has been vitriol between the O'Toole and MacKay camps.



The French language leadership debate devolved at times into a shouting match between the two perceived front-runners. That was followed a few days later by accusations of misconduct that have prompted police to launch a mischief probe. Depending which side you choose to believe, either the MacKay campaign is suspected of a criminal hacking scandal, or the O'Toole campaign involves a bunch of thin-skinned crybabies who have suffered a run-of-the-mill internal leak.
Either way, the whole affair borders on the comedic.
Ultimately, the MacKay-O'Toole rivalry is best summed up by what Freud refered to as, "The narcissism of minor differences."

Like Justin Trudeau, both men owe their political careers largely to their fathers – one a former federal PC cabinet minister, the other a former Ontario MPP. Both have been viewed as Red Tories most of their careers – although since the leadership race began, O'Toole has been reborn as "true blue" (a marketing term more than a description of his platform).


Conservative leadership candidate Erin O'Toole (right) claims Peter MacKay's campaign team was involved in, 'theft of confidential O'Toole campaign data and strategy.' Police are investigating the claim. (Canadian Press)

Anonymous caucus members from both camps have been talking to the media about the need for the winner to bridge the divide between two slightly different shades of Red Tory. It's all just so much Kabuki theatre – an elaborate opera that is a triumph of showmanship over substance.

The real threat to party unity comes from the sameness of the front-runners, not their differences.



It has created an opportunity for the rise of a populist movement from Western Canada, the Wexit Party, born out of frustration that the region's genuine grievances have been largely ignored. And this has the potential to shatter the unified right brought together by Stephen Harper and (ironically) Peter MacKay.

The lack of a "true blue" conservative in the leadership race — or better said, a "Western conservative"— has opened the door for the rift between the establishment Red Tories and this successor to the Reform Party. Except Wexit Canada has been born under the slogan that "The West Wants Out" rather than "The West Wants In."

And the Wexit Party now has a charismatic, credible and experienced interim leader, Jay Hill. Someone who was a founding member of the Reform Party and who served in a variety of leadership positions during his lengthy political career, including as House Leader in Stephen Harper's government.


Former Conservative MP Jay Hill is the interim leader of the new Wexit Canada party. On Jan. 10, the Western separatist party was granted the ability to run candidates in the next federal election by Elections Canada. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)

Hill knows how to build a political party and will have little trouble finding credible candidates to run under his banner, possibly even some former Conservative and Reform Party MPs.
More concerning to whoever wins the CPC leadership race should be the appeal that Wexit could have in the heartland of its electoral base.

There are Conservative Party voters in B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba who are frustrated with the re-election of Justin Trudeau, and dismayed at the prospect of yet another Liberal government winning the next election. They may decide they'd find a stronger voice sending a Wexit Canada member to Ottawa, instead of another opposition Conservative MP to serve under a central Canadian Red Tory.



Such a scenario could see a situation analogous in part to that which occurred in 1993, and lead to the election of dozens of MPs under the Wexit banner.

Worse still for Conservatives, vote splits might actually see a number of close seats in urban areas like Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Regina, Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver elect NDP and Liberal MPs due to the splitting of the right-of-centre vote.

Should Wexit gain steam, it is easy to imagine a handful of CPC MPs seeking re-election may be tempted to cross the floor in advance of the next federal vote in order to save their political skins.

Floor-crossing is always an unpleasant act, but look to those who left the old PC Party to form the Bloc Quebecois to understand the potential of that threat.

If any of these events were to unfold, the small-ball divisions worrying the current CPC caucus and leadership camps will be the least of their problems.



Corrections

  • When originally published, this column said Erin O'Toole's father is a former provincial PC cabinet minister. He is a former Ontario PC MPP, but did not serve in the cabinet.

Online activist seizes the spotlight with police critique

'It's made a change and I'm not going to apologize for that part'


Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Jul 31, 2020 6:00 AM AT



Caitlin Grogan said she wasn't looking for attention when she criticized the Saint John Police in a tweet in June. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

Caitlin Grogan says she wasn't looking for attention in early June when she dropped an f-bomb on the Saint John Police force.

But that's what she got: attention for her, and for her cause.

That single phrase in a single tweet, "f--- the @saintjohnpolice," made her the most prominent of several new voices forcing themselves into political debates in the city around policing, transit and other issues.



"I don't necessarily feel like I belong in the spotlight," she says. "I haven't done anything of incredible importance. I'm just a person in the community."

On the other hand, in the last eight weeks, "I've had more contact with politicians than I have had in my entire life."
so, the saint john police doesn’t recommend charges for 80% of sexual assault reports? and that’s like... acceptable?

The Saint John police reacted to her tweet by blocking her, but quickly unblocked her.

Since then Grogan has deployed the f-word at least one other time and has told people to "shut up," though she says that was registering disapproval, not trying to silence them.

MP deletes Twitter after debate

She has also got under the skin of some politicians, most notably Saint John-Rothesay Liberal MP Wayne Long.

After a heated online discussion about a photo showing Long on a boat with some friends, one of them holding a beer, the second-term MP deleted his Twitter account.



"Advocacy is important. Waking people up to listen to your message is important," says Long, a prolific social-media user himself.


With a single tweet, Caitlin Grogan put herself at the centre of a political moment in Saint John. She's part of a burst of online activism that politicians have been unable to ignore. 4:53

"But when it leaves issues-based discussion, and turns to personal attacks that's when I think it's counterproductive. And to be perfectly frank, it's destructive."

After Long made similar comments on CBC's Information Morning Saint John last week, Grogan tweeted, "Imagine being the most ineffective MP in history and trying to pick a fight with your most annoying constituent."

Other Saint John politicians haven't pushed back. Coun. David Hickey says social media is "not necessarily the most productive place" to take on politicians, but he says the swirl of debate has been healthy.

"It's also creating a bigger conversation around what insightful and meaningful engagement means with the community and with community partners."

In a way, it's a story as old as politics, now being told in 140-character bursts on smart phones.


Young activists push for change. Establishment figures get uncomfortable.

Approach criticized

It raises age-old questions: is it better to criticize from the outside or try to work from inside the system? When is it time to stop asking nicely?

"The only reason anyone is paying attention to this right now is because I swore one time at the police," Grogan says. "It's made a change and I'm not going to apologize for that part."

Grogan says the criticism of her approach, that she's too "angry" and needs to smile more, is rarely levelled at male activists, and besides, it's just the "persona" people see online.

"I get [called] angry a lot, which is really surprising, because people who know me personally [know] that is so not me."

Except she is angry, she says in the next breath, about the number of sexual assault cases labelled "unfounded," for example.



"I think you have to be angry," she says. "I think if you're not angry you're not paying enough attention to what's happening."

Grogan has a lighter side. She tweeted at Mayor Don Darling that the city should buy Theodore the Tugboat, which Halifax officials put up for sale this summer.

Changes needed

But it's making change that drives her, and that's where it's harder to measure her impact.

She mentions that the email addresses for members of the Saint John Board of Police Commissioners are now listed online, and that the Kennebecasis Regional Police Force plans to pilot a civilian sexual assault review process.

Grogan used the provincial right-to-information law to get a breakdown of the different reasons the city police cited for not laying charges after sexual assault complaints.

Those are tiny steps that raise other eternal political questions: how fast is fast enough when it comes to change? How rapidly can it happen without triggering a backlash and endangering progress?



"I'm like the instant gratification generation," Grogan says. "'We want change and we want it now.'"

She recognizes that's not always realistic. She says it was unfair for another Twitter user to slam Saint John Mayor Don Darling for not defunding the police immediately.

"But at the same time …  while it may take years for the Saint John city council to substantially cut the police force budget, it would not take them years to at least acknowledge that that's something they want to look at or will look at."

Not interested in politics

Of course, Twitter isn't real life. It's not as widely used as other social media platforms, and it can be an echo chamber for politicians, activists and journalists.

Real decisions happen in real life.

"I had a lot of people reach out to me and ask if I was going to put my name forward to the police board or if I was going to run in the next municipal election," Grogan says.



"Both of those are resounding no's. That's not the way I want to make a difference right now. When you're working from the inside you have a lot more power but you also have a lot more rules that are put upon you."

Other like-minded activists are taking the plunge, though.

Courtney Pyrke, a board member of the new activist group Flip Saint John, recently applied for a vacant spot on the police board and several other municipal bodies.

"When Don Darling and Wayne Long and those politicians said, 'Why don't you do something?' I looked up what positions were open and I put my name forward because I think they have a point," Pyrke said.

Progressive activism

Flip Saint John was formed by a group of progressive activists who found each other online and decided to work together.

The group recently tweeted that it wants to avoid online bullying and was working on a code of conduct for its board members.



"We want to take these, as people would describe it, 'angry voices' or 'angry people online,' and turn that into something more productive," Pyrke said, adding, "I didn't see an issue with how Cait expressed her concerns or the things that she was recognizing."
 

While she's not interested in being on the police commission board or running for municipal politics, Grogan is learning more about how government works. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

Darling says the debate sparked by Grogan, Flip Saint John and Black Lives Matter has prompted an "uptick" in the applications for vacant spots on the police board.

"So I am confident at the end of this we'll have a stronger police commission when we're done," he says.

Grogan, meanwhile, says she has gained a more detailed understanding of how government institutions work.

"Today I'm going to sit through a growth committee meeting and learn about an affordable housing strategy for the city," she says. "Prior to all of this I wouldn't have known that the city was even looking to create an affordable housing strategy."

Despite Grogan's better appreciation of how slow-moving governments can be, and despite the blowback, "I would say things seem more possible" than they were before that first tweet, she says.

"It's shown that there is sort of a new type of politics coming, some new engagement. Young people are 'aging up' to the age now that they're able to vote and get involved, and there is that generational change."

A tweet that does nothing but drop the F-bomb on a group or individual is not activism. It's just complaining. By reacting so strongly to this particular complaint, politicians have encouraged more of the same. If you want to make change, first learn how things work.

Aloysius McGillicuddy
Calling someone the "most ineffective MP in history" is not activism. It is Trumpism. Back in the day, people used to write "letters to the editor". The editor would decide what was reasonable enough to print. Now anyone with a smart phone gets the mic. And they often have no expertise. So if 80% is not acceptable, what is? 81%? 85%? There was no discussion of the results of the access to information and why there were not charges. Should people be tried without evidence? Should we spend time on trials where there is zero chance of conviction and clog up our legal system even more? This kind of twitter "activism" is just not constructive, its just yet another loudmouth getting attention.

Mac Isaac
In previous generations the norm for entry into politics was to become involved in some sort of community organization; then that involvement matured to that of community leadership and then on to elected office. Like most people my age, we WANT younger people to be engaged in their communities. Maybe this method of engaging through social media is as good a method as how it was formerly done but one thing I do know is either way requires a good foundation and education on the issues and the practicalities of your methodologies. Such blanket statements as "f--- @saintjohn police" needs some reflection on how effective such antagonism can be to the goal of improving/changing those things you want improved/changed. Such statements will most certainly make you visible but, at some point, you will need cooperation from some of the very people you've alienated.

Why would you give the CBC access to frame your story? You don't have to want to run for office to point out the obvious, or serve as a necessary vehicle of catharsis when police get out of hand, or criticize what is manifestly stupid about politics, government and its different departments.

You don't need to do those things because nobody put guns to the heads of the people currently working these jobs. They took high profile jobs that attract criticism. That's on them.

Cute though. The tactic, I mean. Oh dear what have I done..

Long is quoted as saying: "But when (social media) leaves issues-based discussion, and turns to personal attacks that's when I think it's counterproductive. And to be perfectly frank, it's destructive."

When I raised an issue about the census snooping into private lives, this MP sat on the sidelines and gleefully watched live as his principal assistant tried to publicly humiliate me on social media.

So anti-"snoopers" are misguided and supporting ideological rather than scientific public policy. This is ruining the country. There's many protections of data anonymity in the collection of census data.

Its one thing to sit and type nasties to people on a screen, its another to come out in the community and say things face to face or in a committee when maybe not everyone shares your ideas and to get your point across pleasantly and with statistics and reality to back you up.

Ms. Grogan , like everyone else , has an opinion , but very little will change . Sadly , N.B. is one of the poorest provinces in Canada , with one of the lowest ranked education systems , highest unemployment rates , oldest populations , and nepotism in govt. hiring that is out of control ; .and other than the population getting even older , I have not seen any of these things change in the last 40 years . Ms. Grogan is young and idealistic , but as she gets older , she will learn what the reality really is in N.B. ; and then she must accept that she can stay , or she can go....and many folks who want to be successful have chosen to leave N.B.

NB Power's rate hike plan for April 1 has been caught in pandemic limbo

'Increasing electricity prices at the wrong time may slow the economic recovery'


Robert Jones· CBC News· Posted: Jul 31, 2020 7:00 AM AT



NB Power has long struggled to fulfill two competing goals: keeping rates for customers low and its own finances healthy. (Radio-Canada)

A rate increase NB Power was hoping to have in place April 1 to help boost its troubled finances is still in limbo heading toward next month as the province and utility both ponder when customers and the economy might be ready to absorb higher prices.

"Increasing electricity prices at the wrong time may slow the economic recovery and hurt our most vulnerable citizens," said province of New Brunswick spokesperson Nick Brown in an email Thursday.

In February, NB Power presented its case to a full Energy and Utilities Board (EUB) hearing for a 1.9 per cent increase in rates to take effect April 1 but on March 19, with a ruling imminent the utility requested an indefinite suspension of the application in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.



"Many businesses are closed or at reduced operation for an unknown time frame and many employees of those businesses have been affected as a result," said then NB Power president Gaetan Thomas in a letter to the EUB 

"NB Power has concluded that a rate increase implemented on April 1, 2020 would be counterproductive."


In January's State of the Province address Premier Blaine Higgs said NB Power had to 'immediately' come up with a plan to deal with its 'unacceptable debt.' Two months later the utility's finances were being battered by the COVID-19 pandemic. (Stephen MacGillivray/Canadian Press)

The utility said it would inform the EUB when a better time for an increase presented itself "In consultation with the Government of New Brunswick" but four months later the suspension continues with no word yet when the EUB will be released to deliver its rate decision and the utility freed up to charge customers more.

Marc Belliveau, a spokesperson for NB Power, suggested there is no decision on the immediate horizon.
"NB Power continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on its customers and its operations, which includes the impact of the timing of the EUB decision on rates," Belliveau said in an email.

Complicating the issue is that NB Power's own finances have been battered by the pandemic, worsening its already considerable money problems. 



Two weeks ago the utility declared a $16 million loss for the fiscal year ended in March, its first year of negative earnings in a decade.  

Expensive delay

In the current year, NB Power has been budgeting for a modest $40.9 million profit, but that was put together long before the global economy began contracting in March and assumed a full rate increase beginning April 1st.

At the hearing in February the utility's director of financial planning Diane Fraser estimated any delay past April 1 for an NB Power increase would be expensive.
 

Energy and Utilities Board vice-chair Francois Beaulieu said in March a decision on NB Power's application for a 1.9 per cent rate increase on April 1 was "imminent" before the utility applied for a pandemic related suspension. Four months later the increase is still pending. (Graham Thompson/CBC)

"The effect of the delay of an increase roughly I would say its between two and three million dollars per month," said Fraser.

NB Power is under strict instructions by the Higgs government to lower its debt levels significantly by 2027, a directive that the current rate freeze is not helping.
But there are also political issues to be weighed, with a series of byelections, if not a general election, coming by the end of the year.




The province says it is aware of the financial pressure NB Power is under but has other issues to worry about as well.

"As we continue to deal with the pandemic, government is trying to balance the needs of New Brunswickers while keeping its fiscal house in order," said Brown.

"We continue to have discussions with NB Power and recognize the utility's need to recover their costs and not add to their long-term debt."

NB Power has reduced or delayed some capital spending plans for the year, including the temporary suspension of its application to acquire and deploy smart meters in New Brunswick which Brown said has been helping to cut the utility's costs.

Methinks Nick Brown should fess up and admit that his latest boss Higgy don't care about NB Power raising rates. He is merely trying to inspire the narrative before he has the writ dropped.

Some folks must recall Gallant promising to freeze NB Power's rates during the last election then he took it back  in order to get support from the Greens as he tried to remain the boss. Now Higgy is playing the same game. This is particularly egregious to me after watching Higgy support the NB Power late filing for a rate increase as soon as the PANB allowed him to have the mandate.However the second bid for "Not So Smart" Meters and another rate increase took the cake N'esy Pas?

Good afternoon,
It is my recollection that the Brattle presentation session originally scheduled for December 2019 included the opportunity for parties to make a presentation at that session after the Brattle Group presentation had concluded. Can the Board please confirm whether this is still the case for the May 12 session, or are parties limited to providing a written submission per the letter distributed today?
Thank you,
Steve

NBers would be much better off if the energy market were opened up to free market competition. 
  
Fred Brewer
Reply to @David Peters: I agree. The sad truth is that we were on a path to achieve free market competition but it got derailed. Step one was to separate the transmission business from the generation business and that step was completed by establishing an independent transmission system operator. Step two was to allow competition. The system operator could sell transmission rights to any generator so they could use those transmission lines to sell power directly to end users. Sadly this step never happened and the independent system operator was dissolved and folded back into NB Power. What a waste of time and money.

Reply to @David Peters: Agreed. There is no substitute for open competition. Consumers always win. This has been proven time after time. Having choices is wonderful.

Monopolies are detrimental to ratepayers and NB Power is proof of that.

Reply to @Jen Corvec: You raise a good point but just think how much worse it would be if you had no other option. Then there would be no incentive whatsover to provide better service, more features or better pricing. But if we had two or three more new competitors in NB then you would see a real battle shaping up for your business. That is where a free market would really start to shine.

To rectify the problem you would likely need to clean house and replace up to 100 people and we all know that will never happen unless the business is sold. A new owner's first task would be to clean house and they would do it and they would have their own managers who actually know how to operate efficiently and how to make this business profitable on an ongoing basis.

Will Parti Acadien be back on the provincial ballot?

Spokesperson Nelson Cyr said party would run candidates in next provincial election


Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Jul 31, 2020 4:27 PM AT



The Parti Acadien was last on a provincial election ballot 38 years ago. (Wikipedia, user Makaristos)

With a provincial election call potentially looming, politicians of all stripes were caught by surprise Friday by the news a new-old party may join the fray.

The Parti Acadien, last on a provincial election ballot 38 years ago, announced its revival in a press release on Facebook on Thursday.

But by mid-day Friday its Twitter account had already been deleted, and Elections New Brunswick reported there's been no application to officially register the party.



Spokesperson Nelson Cyr told Radio-Canada Friday morning that the party would run candidates in the next provincial election.

But he refused to say who was involved other than himself, nor what its platform would be.

"No party is representing Acadians at this time," said the Thursday press release. "Acadians have to get organized themselves."

Party revival?

Green Party MLA Kevin Arseneau said he had "serious doubts" whether the supposed return of the party was for real.

Cyr, a former Rogersville village councillor, said in an email it was "impossible" for him to grant an interview to CBC News on Friday. The party's website contains no information about meetings, candidates or policies.

The original Parti Acadian was created in the 1970s, a time when New Brunswick francophones were winning new linguistic rights but some activists felt existing political parties weren't doing enough.



The party advocated the creation of autonomous, decentralized governing institutions in francophone areas, and even discussed the idea of carving out a separate Acadian province.

Disrupting the vote

It peaked in the 1978 election, winning 12 per cent of the vote in the 23 ridings where it ran candidates. It came within 171 votes of winning a seat in Restigouche West.

But its biggest impact was in disrupting long-standing Liberal voting patterns in francophone areas.

That made it easier for the Progressive Conservative government of Premier Richard Hatfield to attract some of those voters with both concrete policy moves and symbolic gestures. The PCs won nine francophone ridings in 1982 and the Parti Acadian vanished.

Arseneau said he's not concerned about a similar dynamic now that might help the current PC government.

He said if the party has issues to raise, it has the right to campaign. "Democracy is democracy. … The more parties we have, the better for democracy."



But Liberal leader Kevin Vickers said he worries this is another sign of growing political polarization along language lines.

He compared the Parti Acadien to the People's Alliance, which won three seats in 2018 after criticizing many aspects of official bilingualism.

He noted that no elected official from the PC government has addressed New Brunswickers in French at COVID-19 briefings, frustrating some francophones.

"Every effort should be made to resolve this … without taking approaches that are extreme on either side," Vickers said. Otherwise, "it really is a win, I believe, for the People's Alliance in that it divides our province."

Alliance leader Kris Austin could not be reached for comment.

Language concerns



A screenshot from the Parti Acadien website. (Parti Acadien/Screenshot)

The current PC government has no francophone MLAs, and activists frequently complain Premier Blaine Higgs has no interest in advancing language rights.



Higgs, who can only speak French well when reading from a text, said the simultaneous translation provided at COVID-19 briefings meets the requirements of the Official Languages Act.

But Arseneau said it helps explain francophone unease

"I understand that some people might feel left behind by the current government in northern New Brunswick and the Acadian regions of New Brunswick," said Arseneau, a former president of the Acadian Society of New Brunswick.

"I do refute completely the phrase in that press release that says that no party is defending Acadians in New Brunswick. I don't think that's true."

He pointed out he often raises language issues in the legislature and has been criticized for it by Higgs and the Alliance.

Details scarce

The new party's website is short on details and doesn't identify any current supporters.



Cyr told Radio-Canada the party "could" adopt the same positions held in the 1970s, including the call for decentralized francophone government institutions.

He was also vague about election readiness.

"We'll see how far we can go," he said. "We plan to have candidates. I don't know if we'll have candidates in all francophone areas, but we'll have candidates."

Higgs has not ruled out calling an early election by the fall. As of Friday morning, the PCs have scheduled 17 nominating conventions for candidates, more than one-third of a full slate, to be held through mid-August.

Only registered parties can have their names appear on ballots alongside their candidates. But to become registered, a new party must set up at least 10 riding associations and hold a convention to elect a leader.

That hasn't happened, and Elections New Brunswick spokesperson Paul Harpelle said the agency has no record of any application to register the Parti Acadien.

Kevin Arseneau quitte la SANB et se lance en politique
Radio-Canada Publié le 25 septembre 2017

Kevin Arseneau veut devenir le prochain député provincial de la circonscription de Kent-Nord, sous la bannière libérale. C'est pour ça qu'il a annoncé dimanche soir sa démission à titre de président de la Société de l'Acadie du Nouveau-Brunswick.

En entrevue à l'émission Le Réveil Nouveau-Brunswick, Kevin Arseneau admet qu'il n'a pas été approché par le Parti libéral.

« Je me suis fait approcher par des citoyens de mon comté. Je crois que le Parti libéral est la meilleure place pour faire avancer ma communauté en ce moment », explique-t-il.

Kevin Arseneau est un militant environnementaliste de longue date. Il avait évoqué la possibilité de se présenter pour le Parti vert aux dernières élections provinciales, avant de se retirer de l'investiture. Il a eu, au fil des années, plusieurs pommes de discorde avec le gouvernement libéral, notamment dans le dossier de la commissaire aux langues officielles, de l'achat d'aliments locaux et de la privatisation en santé.

« J'ai l'intention de rester moi-même. Il y a des décisions des libéraux avec lesquelles je ne suis pas d'accord. Je ne vais pas aller dire que le glyphosate est une bonne chose. Et il y a d'autres façons de développer l'économie qu'Énergie est », indique-t-il.

S'il est élu, sera-t-il prêt à suivre la ligne de parti?

Je ne suis pas prêt à dire que je suis prêt à suivre une ligne de parti.
Kevin Arseneau

Le député actuel de la circonscription Bertrand LeBlanc a indiqué qu'il ne serait pas candidat aux prochaines élections provinciales, qui auront lieu le 24 septembre 2018.

Kevin Arseneau leaves SANB and goes into politics
Radio-Canada Posted on September 25, 2017

Kevin Arseneau wants to become the next MPP for the riding of Kent-Nord, under the Liberal banner. That is why he announced his resignation on Sunday evening as president of the Société de l'Acadie du Nouveau-Brunswick.

In an interview with Le Réveil Nouveau-Brunswick, Kevin Arseneau admits that he was not approached by the Liberal Party.
“I was approached by citizens of my riding. I believe that the Liberal Party is the best place to move my community forward right now, ”he explains.

Kevin Arseneau is a longtime environmental activist. He had raised the possibility of running for the Green Party in the last provincial election, before withdrawing from the nomination. Over the years, it has had several bones of contention with the Liberal government, particularly in the matter of the Commissioner of Official Languages, the purchase of local food and health privatization.

“I intend to be myself. There are Liberal decisions with which I do not agree. I'm not going to say glyphosate is a good thing. And there are other ways of developing the economy than Energy is, ”he says.

If elected, will he be ready to follow the party line?

I'm not ready to say I'm ready to follow a party line.

Bad example. Our prime minister is fully scripted in either official language. The reason for this is he can't help but mess up when using his own words in either language (probably because he speaks his mind).

It's no wonder the Parti Acadien wants to resurface. Higgs has barely acknowledged them since he was elected. Most of his activity (if not all) has been in primarily English areas and hasn't made much of an effort to hear their concerns. It wouldn't hurt Higgs to spend a few days in the Acadien locales and at least listen to what they have to say.
All NB'ers need to have a voice, or at least think they're getting one....

As for allusions to "tax payers funded celebrations", despite one's urge to remind others of what is on one's mind, you should know that Acadians and francophones are also taxpayers. This "them" and "us" references are not helpful. And, one last comment on mockery, might Acadians and francophones feel as though they are being mocked since the Premier has yet to fulfill his promise to learn and speak French? Mirror, mirror …

Well, we certainly can't agree on this one: "Higgs, who can only speak French well when reading from a text". First, when you read, you don't speak, and more importantly, Mr Higgs cannot read in French, he just enunciates syllables, not words. Facts are facts.

Michael Guravich 
Reply to @Fred Brewer:
He can make important decisions, for sure. That’s his job as Premier. How well he does that is a matter for debate, and another time. But “govern”? That’s another thing altogether. If he cannot personally communicate effectively with a third of the population, which is supposed to have equal linguistic rights per the constitution, well, that’s a problem. This has been particularly apparent during the pandemic, when everybody needs to be getting the same information at the same time from the leader. When a reporter asked him a question in French, he replied put that in English, please. So, yeah, his lack of French is a problem. How do you “govern” a people when you can’t talk to a third of them without a translator? This is New Brunswick, not Saskatchewan.

When one has a party such as this, or the anglo society's Alliance, the rationale is perceived ideas of harm being done to people within that group. Since the Parti Acadien was last on the scene many of the issues of the francophones have been resolved. Is everything "peachy keen"? Not by a long shot but things HAVE improved and are far better than the period before Robichaud and Hatfield when francophones were forced into English only schools and assimilated. One of my best friends of the time was forced to repeat multiple grades because he had such difficulties and eventually quit school and joined the military. He wasn't stupid; he just didn't have the basic English he needed. Today's students, English and French (and soon Indigenous!) have a much better go of it. Too late for my friend but better for today's youth.

Here we go again, the French will never integrate into Canadian society. Just look at Quebec the French will never accept Canada as it's country. They actually hate Canada like never before. Trudeau senior started this multicultural stuff and bilingualism . Where all of Canada was accepting it and even sending their kids to French schools but in Quebec their goal was to end the use of English anyway possible. They then decided to impose language laws .even today after all of these years the English are still alive plus we are not called Canadian but the English. We are also the most hated of all minorites of Canada. And now the Acadians are crying . Boo, hoo.

Reply to @Edward St-pierre: Well said. I usually add sarcasm but nope, not this time!


Mac Isaac 
Reply to @Edward St-pierre: Sorry Monsieur St-pierre but blanket statements such as yours (that "They actually hate Canada...") is patently ridiculous. The latter part of that quote ("...like never before.") sounds just a tad like something Trump might say in his overly exaggerated way. That Quebec is now mandated as a French first province kinda reminds me of other provinces such as British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland & Labrador!!! ...and let's not forget the Territories! In fact, despite the Quebecois unilingual French legislation the French language in Quebec and all other areas of Canada is still very much at risk, despite assertions such as ours and others. For an Anglophone (unilingual) senior citizen such as myself I have never been able to understand the paranoia of each linguistic group. It's incredibly sad for each group because each is missing so much. It WILL continue thus, as it has since the Norman Conquest in 1066. I doubt there are two other nations on earth who have waged war on each other more than the English and French...it's just carried on across the Atlantic!  


Jos Allaire 
Reply to @Edward St-Peter: You are lumping federalist Quebecers and separatist Quebecers together. It's fake news like these that foment division among Canadians. Further to Mr Mac Isaac's comment, we are now all here in this together. Let's leave this old hatred dating back to the Norman conquest on the other side of the pond including their kings and queens who were responsible for fueling these senseless wars. Dictators is what they were, of the worst kind!

Matt Steele
I suspect that the Parti Acadien has seen how easy it was for the WE charity to get millions of dollars from Trudeau ; so now they want to set up some type of group so they can get some taxpayer cash as well . The Parti Acadien lost their place at the trough when Brian Gallant went down to defeat after only one term , and the $130 MILLION Francophonie games ended up being canceled . The Parti Acadien probably only has about 5 members anyway .

Reply to @Tim Simmons: it seems that the more we have political parties the happier people are but I know from first hand knowledge that the French will never be happy. This fight between the French and the English will never end. Multicultural use to be about the French and the English . but move over people , the people of the third world countries are here and they are going to take over.

President Trump, Time To Round Up The Satanic Bastards Who Murdered My Dad and 7,000 Other Canadians

THIS IS NOT AN ENTERTAINMENT CHANNEL The documentary which left one man murdered and another hiding for his safety is yours to appreciate. My father died as a result of an illness he acquired in 1984 from this blood. This is the reason I have dedicated my life to discovering the key to destroying the criminal empire designed by Adam Weishaupt in 1775 and why I designed #giveblood and #SBV. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati We begin to open the door to #giveblood, which is the plan to bring to justice, everyone who had a part in the largest mass murder of Canadians, during our lifetime. 7000 Canadians were murdered by The Clintons, and our own Crown, via the Bank of Canada's "sister corp" The Canadian Red Cross. These pedofaggots murdered my father in 1989 and yet Druggie Dougie Ford, is kissing Mulroney Family ass today..... or was. Doug has an ankle bracelet on as does his nephew Michael. This documentary is one that is continually taken down by the powers that be. Music: "Ion Nancarrow" by the extraordinary Michael Sherwood (1959 - 2019) and Andy R.

I was almost forced into taking a blood transfusion after an emergency c section... I refused & demanded to talk to the head of the blood transfusion service and asked "is it possible that malignant cells could be transfused? He said "we don't know, it's possible". I lost about 2.5 L of blood, but within 6 weeks with a good diet, it was back to normal. Don't take a transfusion unless you're dying.

@Your feelings don't matterResearch a little bit more. You just may not be seeing what you think you are seeing; and there are very good reasons for it. Can you image what would happen if everyone was arrested, jailed, tried, sentenced, etc., all at once? Not everyone out there knows about these peoples and crimes. For most it is unfathomable. It must be done slowly over time, people must be enlighted and educated first, which is very hard to do when all MSM and so many politicians etc., are so compromised. Remember, most people get their 5 minutes of nightly news only from MSM TV and radio.

Wasn't that the MURRAH Federal Building???
SA S
It really makes one HUGELY suspicious that the Oklahoma City bombing, in April 1995 at the Murrah Federal Building WHICH KILLED 168 PEOPLE..... was possibly NOT the work of just Timothy McVeigh and Terry NicholsMaybe they were "put up to it" by a government agent -- working for the Clintons maybe???Bill was President when it happened.There was an additional man involved that everyone was essentially told to ASSUME was Terry Nichols' teenage son.That mystery man was NEVER REALLY SOUGHT. Also, since when does the US government just let a co-conspiritor to mass murder, off the hook.....just because he's a teenager???Maybe the investigators KNEW that 3rd man WASN'T Terry Nichols teenage son and they just let the idea hang in the air so they wouldn't have to publically disclose WHO it really was???SOMETHING WAS HORRIBLY "FISHY" WITH THE WAY THE GOVERNMENT JUST LET THE PURSUIT OF THE MYSTERY MAN GO and the big media corporations didn't talk about it either.Something "fishy" and evil too??

Carol Ann Boudreau
@Jesus Gonzalez Righteous anger is not a sin. That is a lie from satan. We are to love what God loves and hate what He hates. When you rise up against the evil being done to the innocent, you are not sinning. You sin when you do so for your own pride, pleasure or benefit - unjustified anger or criticism. Jesus drove out the money changers in the Temple. This was a violent action, He cast them out and overturned their tables, wreaking havoc. These were not just a few people. They were violating God's law, stealing from the people, lying about their offerings and violating the sanctity of the Temple. He was justified in His anger. So are we when we rise up against the evil taking place against others. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Edmund Burke

I was all set to vote PPC in the last election till I found out the Parry Sound/Muskoka rep backed out......forfeited my vote as a result!!! Behind you all the AM and Norm et al. Keep up the great work. I am a semi-retired bookkeeper (and former accounting clerk with the Feds in Ottawa on Sparks St, till 2011) willing to help if you need it. Thanks for helping Field get out of jail; followed him for the past year. Shocked to hear how TCH duped us all!!!

In making any decision for Prime Minister or President and their collective party. Its important that CHILD WELFARE, PROTECTION, and SEVERE PENALTIES are given to ANY ONE involved, and or Associated with Child Trafficking. Children are the future of any Country. If they ignore the transgenderism and lgbtq education in elementary schools. Dont vote for them. If all they give you are people who wont talk about it. File for new options. You or i DONT need to subscribe to the lesser of evils.

I was with you until you said you wanted to put all our money into crypto. Gold is real and crypto is in the air, not trustworthy yet.
Its not exactly that. I base the money on the country assets. Think about that for a bit....... we owe this land. Gold be damned....

That's dangerous. If we falter then we will have to give up these "assets". Perhaps some of our landmass. Not good. Backing our currency with labour will give us an unlimited amount of currency that Canadians can earn into existence. Computers can be hacked and then so can our financial system if it is computer based. If I understand what it is that you are describing. The EPA in America was created I've heard to set aside America's land to back up their debt. Sounds like a bad idea for present and future generations. I only am responding to your comment and I am willing to listen to your groups ideas in the future. My name is Leslie Bory and have been a federal candidate in the past. Have a good day.

Putting the Abel Danger nonsense in the rear view mirror, we begin to open the door to #giveblood, which is the plan to bring to justice, everyone who had a part in the largest mass murder of Canadians, during our lifetime. 
7000 Canadians were murdered by The Clintons, and our own Crown, via the Bank of Canada's "sister corp" The Canadian Red Cross. These pedofaggots murdered my father in 1989 and yet Druggie Dougie Ford, is kissing Mulroney Family ass today..... 
This documentary is one that is continually taken down by the powers that be. 
We will however, leave it, and a substantial treasure trove of F.B.I. Mob tapes, available here, for you to enjoy: https://archive.org/details/@david_raymond_amos

Commissioners held public meetings in the Kent County area in 2015. Indigenous leaders warn of protests, halting developments over shale gas exemptionThe New Brunswick Anti-Shale Gas Alliance says it has heard nothing from the commission since that time, and it's tired of waiting. It's calling on RCMP and government officials to release the commission's findings.Alliance spokesperson Denise Melanson says it's important to know the truth.Denise Melanson, a spokesperson for the New Brunswick Anti-Shale Gas Alliance, said the group is becoming impatient and wants to see the report. (Radio-Canada)"What happened was so anti-democratic and, you know, when governments use force and the secret state to impose things on the public, we're not talking about a democracy anymore," Melanson said. "This is really, really important. And it's not just that I need to prove that I was right about what happened. It's more that we really need to know that our government isn't behaving like this."Report delivered to RCMPIn an email, a spokesperson for the commission confirmed the Rexton riot report was delivered to the RCMP last March.When the RCMP commissioner's office reacts, the commission will prepare its final report, the spokesperson said.The report contains testimony from 130 witnesses, 50,000 records and thousands of video files.The evidence gathered is voluminous: 130 civilian witnesses were heard, 50,000 records and thousands of video files collected, which may explain why the investigation lasted so long.The Council of Canadians is circulating a petition to ask Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale to release the report.CBC News also contacted Public Safety Canada.

(Ben Nelms/CBC)The official responsible for addressing civilian complaints against the RCMP says she will not investigate claims that the RCMP have been acting unlawfully in Wet'suwet'en territory, because recommendations addressing identical issues were sent to the force almost a year ago. Michelaine Lahaie, Chair of the RCMP Civilian Review and Complaints Commission, said a report into public complaints around 2013 and 2014 police action at shale gas protests in Kent County, New Brunswick contained recommendations to the RCMP on matters such as use of arrest, detention and search powers, and use of force.Lahaie said the RCMP has had the report since March 2019, however has yet to respond or make the findings public.According to Lahaie, conducting a separate investigation into the current situation in B.C. would "possibly delay the resolution of he issues being raised... " and that the Commission "...has already provided extensive guidance to the RCMP... about the very issues you raise with regard to the current situation in British Columbia." B.C. RCMP say they'll leave outpost on Wet'suwet'en territory if road is kept clearLast month, Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs, the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs and the B.C. Civil Liberties Association filed complaints with the CRCC over the RCMP's implementation and enforcement of a checkpoint and exclusion zone in traditional Wet'suwet'en territory in northern B.C. as officers were sent in to clear anti-pipeline protesters to make way for crews building the $6.6 billion Coastal GasLink natural gas pipeline.A checkpoint is seen at a bridge leading to a Coastal GasLink worksite on a remote logging road near Houston, B.C., on Jan. 17, 2019. (Darryl Dyck/The Canadian Press)In her letter, Lahaie outlined the Kent County findings relevant to the Wet'suwet'en situation, including: The RCMP had no legal authority to require passengers to produce identification at check points. The RCMP had no legal authority to conduct stop checks for the purposes of information gathering. Stop checks went beyond the limited purposes for which courts have approved them and were found to be inconsistent with the Charter rights of vehicle occupants. Routine searches of vehicles and individuals entering protester camps were not authorized by law. The power for police to create buffer zones is not a general power. Blocking public and media access to roadways may have been unreasonable.Harsha Walia, executive director of the BCCLA said Lahaie's letter is proof the RCMP has been granting itself discretionary and unjustified powers. Why Coastal GasLink says it rejected a pipeline route endorsed by Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs"The RCMP, we see, has continued to engage in the very similar pattern of unlawful policing operations in Wet'suwet'en territories," said Walia. "What is incredibly disturbing is that the RCMP has been aware of these very same issues since March 2019."Complainant Delee Alexis Nikal says Wet'suwet'en community members and invited guests continue to have their rights infringed upon by the RCMP through unlawful stop checks."There's human rights violations that are occurring," she said. "We have elders that are scared to go out on their own territories, territories that they were raised on. They know that the RCMP are there to basically escort CGL in."Lahaie said she could use her discretion as CRCC chair to initiate an investigation into the Wet'suwet'en related complaints in the future.CBC's Journalistic Standards and Practices

Methinks Baba 4ever smells like a shill for the RCMP N'esy Pas?

Baba 4everDavid Amos just curious about the connection between Vance and Moreau. Vance is Chief of National Defense and Moreau is Assistant Commissioner in the RCMP. Just how did Vance become Moreau's boss. Was Moreau seconded to the military? I have never heard of that happening.I have interest in Vance and Moreau that I won't share as ships might get sunk.Just asking for information. Not making accusations.

Baba 4ever
David Amos, you must have a cold or a deviated septum. Your folksy french lessens your credibility along with the pissing. Wrong. The electorate in Fundy Royal are not so dumb.

Lived and worked in First Nations Communities more than once over the years. Walked freely where white beta males fear to tread. Can I piss in the tall grass now?David Amos@Baba 4ever Perhaps when the RCMP permit to you to grow some balls and get a real name and a real phone number you could piss in the tall grass without my permission. Until such time you will remain just another noname shill trolling for the FEDS trying to distract me and waste my precious time So Tah Tah BITCH.

Baba 4everDavid Amos, I thought I would elevate our discussion to the taller grass as I wouldn't want Agent Margaritavilla to miss it. He might even get a chuckle out of it.So, I moved this fom Devine's post because I felt she was uncomfortable with your line of questioning.I did my homework on you because you suggested I should not be pissing in the tall grass with the big dogs. You seem to like the word pissing as it comes up a lot in your communications. Your big dogs appear to be Ralph, Brenda, Bev and a bunch of others and I am supposed to be impressed with. NOT. Not by a long shot.Do they respond to you? No, and I won't go into why.Do they know who I am? You damn right they do and each for a specific reason. It is personal and it ain't over.You see I see you as a junkyard dog who barks at everyone and everything and so no one takes him seriously. I on the other hand am like a well trained German Shepherd. A working dog. Disciplined and discerning. This I know to be true. Brenda's monitors will get it.Now it seems that you unsuccessfully ran for parliament. May I suggest that you should consider yourself lucky as any male Members of Parliament that I have met or communicated with seem to have been neutered shortly upon their arrival in Ottawa. They run around like eunuchs saying "Nothing can be done". Another strange thing happens to them that is puzzling. It seems that no matter how unattractive the eunuch is there is always a way of compromising them with temptresses. You know kind of like Tony Clement. Perhaps that's how the neutering happens. Many lose their marriages and families in the process.I told you I can match your war stories and I haven't even addressed the Cardinal issue. Bitch on steroids out of retirement. Count your blessings and stay out of the tall grass, David.

David Amos
So this self described "Alpha Bitch" Baba 4ever Wants to take me on SO BE ITBaba 4everDavid Amos, I did not pick a fight but simply asked a question.As far as the dog part goes you have no idea how many BIG DOGS I have run off. Do not mistake me for a shrinking violet. I am not the one waiting around for a trophy to arrive. Some of us have paid in real blood and tears. Who let the dogs out is our theme song. There may come a time when we may sit down and swap war stories and I can guarantee you that my shit will out match yours. Not boasting. Just saying. Not expecting a trophy. Simply fulfilling a purpose as there don't seem to be many alpha bitches around these days. Love a good scrap to keep Joe Biden dementia away.Have a great day.

My father got Hepatitis C from blood from this Arkansas prison in 1991 (after our blood supply was supposedly safe) when he had surgery for pancreatitis in Toronto. The Canadian government gave him zero compensation because it was after the cut off date. However, the Ontario government under Mike Harris gave him a bit of money which he used for supplements. He died from liver disease way before he should have. He was the best father and grandfather and has left a huge hole in our family. I know exactly how unethical the Clintons are. However, my father had a very holy death and died with all the last sacraments. He died a richer man spiritually than the Clintons are in their state today. That's my only consolation.

Baba 4ever
M & M K so sorry to hear of your family's loss. Losing a loved one is difficult enough without the corrupt and callous actions of individuals who have no regard for human life. The healing process gets hijacked and over shadowed by the anger and desire for vengeance. No amount of time or "closure" can compensate for the desire for a pound of flesh in return. Wishing you peace and God's punishment for the guilty.

As far as I know the real hero of this movie is Rolf Kaestel and as far as I know he is still in prison for no reason any ethical souls ould ever understand.'https://arktimes.com/arkansas-blog/2016/10/05/a-visit-with-rolf-kaestel-arkansass-addition-to-utah-prisonsA visit with Rolf Kaestel, Arkansas’s addition to Utah prisonsBy Max Brantley On October 5, 20168:25 pmROLF KAESTEL: 35 years in prison and counting for a $264 robbery in which no one was hurt. Salt Lake City WeeklyColby Frazier of the Salt Lake City Weekly has written this week about one of his periodic visits with Rolf Kaestel, an Arkansas prison inmate sent to Utah for never-explained reasons, who’s spent 35 years behind bars for robbing $264 from a Fort Smith taco stand in 1981. No one was hurt. His weapon was a water gun.We’ve written about the Kaestel case several times before, most recently when Gov. Asa Hutchinson denied a clemency request that would have made Kaestel parole eligible. Kaestel, now 66, must wait until he’s in his 70s to apply for clemency from his life-without-parole sentence.He was shipped to Utah 17 years ago. In that time, his only visitor has been Colby Frazier.While in prison in Arkansas, Kaestel became a jailhouse lawyer, the story relates. Once condemned to prison, Kaestel plotted a scholarly path toward a paralegal certificate. He filed scores of lawsuits against the notorious Arkansas prison system, which in the 1970s had been designated by federal courts as being cruel and inhumane. Along with winning some of his suits against the prison, Kaestel advocated for prisoners’ rights, quickly becoming a problem child—the kind that manifests itself in articulately written legal briefs—for prison officials.“Rolf was a very informed prisoner when he was in Arkansas,” [Arkansas Times senior editor Mara] Leveritt says. “He studied the law, he helped other inmates, he became a thorn in their side, I think, of the establishment—the prison department in particular.” One of the Arkansas prison system’s misdeeds Kaestel witnessed involved a blood-plasma donation program. Kaestel himself donated plasma—a way he and other inmates could make a couple of bucks. But Kaestel noticed health concerns with the blood plasma program, including lack of testing for hepatitis C and HIV. He began collecting documents on the plasma program and even appeared in a documentary film, Factor 8: The Arkansas Prison Blood Scandal, released in 2005. It begins with Kaestel—already with 18 years of prison under his belt—saying on camera in front of a prison official that the Arkansas prison system is ripe with “graft, corruption and money making.” In 1999, a short time after being interviewed for the film, Kaestel was hauled out of the breakfast line, loaded into a van and moved to Utah. Beyond “noncompliance with the system,” Arkansas officials have never offered a reason for the transfer. He’s been recommended for release by seven parole boards, but denied clemency 10 times. Gov. Mike Beebe merely declined to take action. That left the door open for another application. Gov. Asa Hutchinson went a step further with a denial of clemency, which delayed the next application for five years. Hutchinson’s office won’t talk about the Kaestel case.Frazier’s article is a long and contemplative essay on justice reform, forgiveness and capacity for change and rehabilitation. He talks extensively with Leveritt, a particular expert on life in the Arkansas penal system.Leveritt says that it is important to ask ourselves whether or not we are capable of forgiveness. When it comes to Kaestel, whom she calls the “walking, talking example of ‘You will not be forgiven,'” it is easy to conclude that, collectively, we Americans are not.”

David Amos, boy do we have a lot of things in common. The Ministry of Indian Affairs was my first employer. I can shed light on the stuff that goes on. Lived and worked in First Nations Communities more than once over the years. Walked freely where white beta males fear to tread. Can I piss in the tall grass now?

David Amos
@Baba 4ever Perhaps when the RCMP permit to you to grow some balls and get a real name and a real phone number you could piss in the tall grass without my permission. Until such time you will remain just another noname shill trolling for the FEDS trying to distract me and waste my precious time So Tah Tah BITCH.

Baba 4ever
David Amos, you are not very bright and a lose cannon. I would caution A M about letting someone so self important hijack the mission. Timothy and his crap out the door and here you are.I interpreted your comments to Divine Interloper as inappropriate and sensed her discomfort. Maybe I was wrong. I then asked you a simple question and it seems that you don't like answering because your time is precious or is it because you throw out claims and are not used to being challenged. If you want to be taken seriously you must follow some rules of proper decorum.Agent Margaritaville has my permission to tell you how wrong you are about me but nothing more beyond that. I do not trust you. This is not my first rodeo and I pride myself on my intuition. Something about you screams warning....wingnut...loose cannon....sabotage. I could be wrong but perhaps if this is a club you're a part of things are about to go sideways.God bless you even if you don't want Him to.You have been disrespectful and a bully.

David Amos
@Agent Margaritaville My friend Roger has witnessed much of my work go "Poof" over the years.He goes to court every time I do and I trust his with my life. He stands in court today with another friend of mine without me because cops are trying hard to arrest me again. Years ago Roger was the one who caused the RCMP to be investigated over their doings in Kent County In New Brunswick years ago. The secretive report about the shit that went on down here is just beginning to leak lately because the Natives are restless elsewhere or I should say everywhere?https://globalnews.ca/news/6574152/wetsuweten-rcmp-action-watchdog-report-unlawful/Watchdog report proves RCMP action in Wet’suwet’en territory ‘unlawful’: Indigenous, civil rights groupsBy Simon Little Global NewsPosted February 20, 2020 4:29 pmWet’suwet’en members and their supporters say a police watchdog has confirmed their allegations that RCMP overstepped their powers while enforcing an injunction in northern B.C. earlier this month.Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs, the BC Civil Liberties Association (BCCLA) and the Union of BC Indian Chiefs filed a complaint with the federal Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP (CRCC) in January, raising concerns about a police road check and exclusion zone.The RCMP actions were a part of its enforcement of an injunction on behalf of Coastal GasLink near Houston, B.C.The CRCC declined to open an investigation, and did not make any conclusions about the specific issues the groups had raised — but not because they weren’t in the public interest, it said.Rather, the watchdog said it had already compiled a report touching on many of the same issues in reference to RCMP actions while policing anti-shale gas protests in Kent County, N.B., in 2013.That report has not been publicly released. It was sent to the RCMP last year, and the CRCC said it was still waiting for the force’s commissioner to respond.On Thursday, the CRCC released a summary of its findings in the 2013 matter.READ MORE: RCMP agrees to leave Wet’suwet’en territory, feds call for ‘urgent’ talksThe CRCC found that in the 2013 case, the RCMP had exceeded its powers by setting up checkpoints where it demanded people’s identification and recorded that information.It also found that searching protesters and their vehicles was a violation of people’s Charter rights.The CRCC found that exclusion zones were permissible, but only under limited, “objectively reasonable” circumstances, “for example, a buffer zone that is as limited in size as possible and an exclusion that is as short in duration as possible.”And it found that some arrests during the 2013 protests were based on “an apparent misinterpretation of the conditions” of an injunction.BCCLA executive director Harsha Walia called the report “disturbing.”“The RCMP has granted itself unlawful, discretionary and unjustified powers to set up and expand an exclusion zone, to arrest people in the exclusion zone who are not actually in breach of the injunction, and they have unreasonably stopped and checked passengers and searched vehicles,” said Walia.“There is absolutely no legal precedent or established legal authority for such an over-broad policing power. Simply put, RCMP operations in Wet’suwet’en territory have been unlawful.”Walia said it was unacceptable that the RCMP has had the CRCC’s report for nearly a year without responding, and said it was concerning that the force had apparently used the very same techniques in its approach to the Wet’suwet’en blockades that had been criticized by the watchdog.The RCMP said it would be inappropriate to comment on the commission’s letter summarizing the report.In regards to the report over the 2013 incident, the RCMP acknowledged there had been a delay, but said it was still working through “the large volume of data,” and could not provide a timeline for the commissioner’s response.“Any recommendation regarding the operation or administration of the RCMP can have far-reaching and significant impacts to the organization and the public,” said an CMP spokesperson by email.“As a result, there are many factors that need to be considered in preparing a response. These include existing case law, our legal authorities, our budget, and potential impacts on our service to the public.”Delee Alexis Nikal, one of the Wet’suwet’en complainants, said police had prevented her from passing through their checkpoint in January, at a time when temperatures were -38 C.“They held us there and didn’t allow us to bring out food and the supplies such as hand warmers, foot warmers, winter gear,” she said.“They’re human rights violations that are occurring. And the excessive force used by the police in last year’s raid has really put a lot of fear into Wet’suwet’en community members.”Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, director of UBC’s Indian Residential School History and Dialogue Centre, said the RCMP’s actions in Wet’suwet’en take on added consequence because of the force’s history with policing Indigenous communities.READ MORE: Hereditary chiefs say they won’t meet with ministers until RCMP detachment removed“Including back to that time of residential schools when the police were used to forcibly remove children from their families, and in many instances charge and punish parents from standing up and trying to stop that,” she said.Turpel-Lafond said the fact that the CRCC had taken the unusual step of releasing a summary of the findings from a not-yet-released report was significant.“[Commission Chairperson Michelaine Lahaie] determined that it is unacceptable for the RCMP, to whom she submitted her report a year ago about these matters, to sit and not respond,” she said. “She says she’s heard nothing back from them.”The comments come as Canada’s Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said the RCMP had agreed to remove a mobile detachment that’s been in place on a forest service road in Wet’suwet’en territory for more than a year.Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs have said they will not meet with provincial and federal leaders until the RCMP was off their traditional lands.However, Hereditary Chief Na’moks told Global News Wednesday that the condition to meet now also includes the removal of Coastal GasLink crews from the territory.© 2020 Global News, a division of Corus Entertainment Inc.

I must thank my friend a very wise "Guy" for having the balls to say my name in light of the fact the Crown Corp known as CBC never will. Trust that very few people have had the balls to say my name in public or the social media. other than to try to call me batshit crazyMay I strongly advise that Guy's friends download this video and the take a digial snap shot of the comment before they possibly go "Poof" Check the comment of this news Item that I had to take on their lawyers to insure that it remained in the public record. i was somewhat successful. However the lawyers insured that the mos important comment remained deleted. That comment was about the matterT-1557-15 being before the Federal Court and the fact that the Attorney General Petey Baby MacKay had answered my lawsuit before polling day and o provided the proof of it by byway of a link the the Federal Court docket records.https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/fundy-royal-riding-profile-1.3274276Whereas everything in heaven and Hell is done in threes, here are a 3 of my comments that remain in CBC to the very day 56 Comments (Once upon a time there were more Trust I saved the proof of the fact)David AmosI must Say I am rather impressed at CBC's sudden fit of Integrity to allow my posts to stand the test of time for a few hours at least. (: Rest assured that I have been saving digital snapshots just in case they delete and block me as usual :) In return here is an old scoop about CTV that CBC and everybody else and his dog has been ignoring for 11 very long years after I ran in the election of the 38th Parliament against the aptly named lawyer Rob Moore. http://thedavidamosrant.blogspot.ca/2013/08/re-bce-and-jean-pierre-blais-of-crtc.html----- Original Message ----- From: martine.turcotte@bell.caTo: motomaniac_02186@hotmail.comCc: bcecomms@bce.ca ; W-Five@ctv.caSent: Thursday, August 19, 2004 9:28 AM Subject: RE: I am curious Mr. Amos, I confirm that I have received your documentation.

David Amos just curious about the connection between Vance and Moreau. Vance is Chief of National Defense and Moreau is Assistant Commissioner in the RCMP. Just how did Vance become Moreau's boss. Was Moreau seconded to the military? I have never heard of that happening.I have interest in Vance and Moreau that I won't share as ships might get sunk.Just asking for information. Not making accusations.

I got permanently banned off Twitter for my 1st & only offence.I called out a pedophile organization supporting a "Dr" (Cordoba? Hard to verify as I am banned & his court case has a publication ban) who wants pedophilia renamed to the more PC term MAPs (Minor Attracted Persons) & be included/protected in with the Gay Rights etc group & encompassing legislation.This organization (literally named Virtuous Pedophiles/@virpeds on Twitter) claims the Government of Canada is obligated to allow them to source "ethical child pornography" (yes, that's a direct quote, as IF such a thing exists) otherwise the Govt is "forcing" them to remain celibate.Or, they could just maybe not be sick fucks in general...oops badthink again, Orwell's 1984 is knocking at my door now...I was banned for asking just HOW exactly they planned to source this "ethical" kiddie porn without harming/abusing the children, as I found that particular bit of B.S. utterly fascinating.I then pointed out there is NOTHING "virtuous" about kiddie-diddling & summed up immediately after "you should be shot" (w is a common phrase, meaning the law SHOULD allow it but DOESN'T).I was then banned for 14days (never been banned before so appealed it) only to have my appeal denied in SECONDS by an automated/unmonitored/unrepliable email addy permanently locking my account until I delete said comment, which I REFUSE to do.That was Jan14th 2020 & my account is still locked, violating Twitter's own ToS/EULA...hilariously another person who replied they had a pill for that (uploaded a pic of a box of 9mm ammo) wasn't banned at all.But I was...because my (LEGAL) common phrase in a reply (with no actual profanity) counts as "abuse" - but apparently (ILLEGAL) molestation of children & videotaping/distributing it for personal gratification is NOT abuse, according to Twitter.Virpeds was merely expressing themselves afterall & I'm CLEARLY a bigot phobe ism...point being, I wouldn't bank on Twitter for playing hardball - they literally support pedophiles, child pornography & are scum~

David Amos, I thought I would elevate our discussion to the taller grass as I wouldn't want Agent Margaritavilla to miss it. He might even get a chuckle out of it.So, I moved this fom Devine's post because I felt she was uncomfortable with your line of questioning.I did my homework on you because you suggested I should not be pissing in the tall grass with the big dogs. You seem to like the word pissing as it comes up a lot in your communications. Your big dogs appear to be Ralph, Brenda, Bev and a bunch of others and I am supposed to be impressed with. NOT. Not by a long shot.Do they respond to you? No, and I won't go into why.Do they know who I am? You damn right they do and each for a specific reason. It is personal and it ain't over.You see I see you as a junkyard dog who barks at everyone and everything and so no one takes him seriously. I on the other hand am like a well trained German Shepherd. A working dog. Disciplined and discerning. This I know to be true. Brenda's monitors will get it.Now it seems that you unsuccessfully ran for parliament. May I suggest that you should consider yourself lucky as any male Members of Parliament that I have met or communicated with seem to have been neutered shortly upon their arrival in Ottawa. They run around like eunuchs saying "Nothing can be done". Another strange thing happens to them that is puzzling. It seems that no matter how unattractive the eunuch is there is always a way of compromising them with temptresses. You know kind of like Tony Clement. Perhaps that's how the neutering happens. Many lose their marriages and families in the process.I told you I can match your war stories and I haven't even addressed the Cardinal issue. Bitch on steroids out of retirement. Count your blessings and stay out of the tall grass, David.

Divine Interloper, I interjected because I got bad vibes. I could not figure out why he focused on you. The creepy factor doesn't often come through but it did. I asked a simple question and was quickly unleashed on.I've done some research on David and get the impression that he does take kindly to a woman challenging him. He is of our generation and perhaps running for office and public attention has given him an inflated view of himself. It's been years since I've encountered such attitude and I didn't take it then and I won't take it now.Hope I didn't overstep. Wishing you well.

Agent Margaritaville, there's more. I have an advanced degree in this kind of thing. God blessed me, so I use it at all levels. I am known for wearing orange and gift it often. Significant? Much of my efforts have been in truth and what is right. There is a code. Yesterday was a day of reflection on a good life stolen. In a few days I will have another. I am a force. Who do you call? Everyone knows but they better be right.Happy to see you allowed yourself some down time. My shepherd needs a walk. God bless your day.

If your world is all screwed up, rearrange it." The 1979 Trooper song Raise a Little Hell blared on the speakers at the 8th Hussars Sports Center Friday evening as people filed in to watch the Fundy candidates debate the issues. It was an accurate, if unofficial, theme song for the debate. The crowd of over 200 spectators was dwarfed by the huge arena, but as they chose their seats, it was clear the battle lines were drawn. Supporters of Conservative candidate Rob Moore naturally took the blue chairs on the right of the rink floor while John Herron's Liberalswent left. There were splashes of orange, supporters of NDP Pat Hanratty, mixed throughout. Perhaps the loudest applause came from a row towards the back, where supporters of independent candidate David Amos sat. The debate was moderated by Leo Melanson of CJCW Radio and was organized by the Sussex Valley Jaycees. Candidates wereasked a barrage of questions bypanelists Gisele McKnight of the Kings County Record and Lisa Spencer of CJCW. Staying true to party platforms for the most part, candidates responded to questions about the gun registry, same sex marriage, the exodus of young people from the Maritimes and regulated gas prices. Herron and Moore were clear competitors,constantly challenging each other on their answers and criticizing eachothers’ party leaders. Hanratty flew under the radar, giving short, concise responses to the questions while Amos provided some food for thought and a bit of comic relief with quirky answers. "I was raised with a gun,"Amos said in response to the question of thenational gun registry. "Nobody's getting mine and I'm not paying 10 cents for it." Herron, a Progressive Conservative MP turned Liberal, veered from his party'splatform with regard to gun control. "It was ill advised but well intentioned," Herron said. "No matter what side of the house I am on, I'm voting against it." Pat Hanratty agreed there were better places for the gun registry dollars to be spent.Recreational hunters shouldn't have been penalized by this gun registry," he said. The gun registry issues provoked the tempers of Herron and Moore. At one point Herron got out of his seat and threw a piece of paper in front of Moore. "Read that," Herron said to Moore, referring to the voting record of Conservative Party leader Steven Harper. According to Herron, Harper voted in favour of the registry on the first and second readings of the bill in 1995. "He voted against it when it counted, at final count,"Moore said. "We needa government with courage to register sex offenders rather than register the property of law abiding citizens." The crowd was vocal throughout the evening, with white haired men and women heckling from the Conservative side. "Shut up John," one woman yelled. "How can you talk about selling out?" a man yelled whenHerron spoke about his fear that the Conservatives are selling farmers out. Although the Liberal side was less vocal, Kings East MLA Leroy Armstrong weighed in at one point. "You’re out of touch," Armstrong yelled to Moore from the crowd when the debate turned to the cost of post-secondary education. Later in the evening Amos challenged Armstrong to a public debate of their own. "Talk is cheap. Any time, anyplace,"Armstrong responded. As the crowd made its way out of the building following the debate, candidates worked the room. They shook hands with well-wishers and fielded questions from spectators-all part of the decision-making process for the June 28 vote. Cutline – David Amos, independent candidate in Fundy, with some of his favourite possessions—motorcycles.McKnight/KCRThe Unconventional CandidateDavid Amos Isn’t Campaigning For Your Vote, But….By Gisele McKnightFUNDY—He has a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket, a chain on his wallet, a beard at least a foot long, 60 motorcycles and a cell phone that rings to the tune of "Yankee Doodle."Meet the latest addition to the Fundy ballot—David Amos.The independent candidate lives in Milton, Massachusetts with his wife and two children, but his place of residence does not stop him from running for office in Canada. One has only to be at least 18, a Canadian citizen and not be in jail to meet Elections Canada requirements.When it came time to launch his political crusade, Amos chose his favourite place to do so—Fundy.Amos, 52, is running for political office because of his dissatisfaction with politicians. "I’ve become aware of much corruption involving our two countries," he said. "The only way to fix corruption is in the political forum."The journey that eventually led Amos to politics began in Sussex in 1987. He woke up one morning disillusioned with life and decided he needed to change his life. "I lost my faith in mankind," he said. "People go through that sometimes in midlife."So Amos, who’d lived in Sussex since 1973, closed his Four Corners motorcycle shop, paid his bills and hit the road with Annie, his 1952 Panhead motorcycle."Annie and I rode around for awhile (three years, to be exact) experiencing the milk of human kindness," he said. "This is how you renew your faith in mankind – you help anyone you can, you never ask for anything, but you take what they offer."For those three years, they offered food, a place to sleep, odd jobs and conversation all over North America.Since he and Annie stopped wandering, he has married, fathered a son and a daughter and become a house-husband – Mr. Mom, as he calls himself.He also describes himself in far more colourful terms—a motorcyclist rather than a biker, a "fun-loving, free-thinking, pig-headed individual," a "pissed-off Maritimer" rather than an activist, a proud Canadian and a "wild colonial boy."Ironically, the man who is running for office has never voted in his life."But I have no right to criticize unless I offer my name," he said. "It’s alright to bitch in the kitchen, but can you walk the walk?"Amos has no intention of actively campaigning."I didn’t appreciate it when they (politicians) pounded on my door interrupting my dinner," he said. "If people are interested, they can call me. I’m not going to drive my opinions down their throats."And he has no campaign budget, nor does he want one."I won’t take any donations," he said. "Just try to give me some. It’s not about money. It goes against what I’m fighting about."What he’s fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood, the exploitation of the Maritimes’ gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to name a few."The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs– fishing, farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I’m death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it (NAFTA) out the window.NAFTA is the North American Free Trade Agreement which allows an easier flow of goods between Canada, the United States and Mexico.Amos disagrees with the idea that a vote for him is a wasted vote."There are no wasted votes," he said. "I want people like me, especially young people, to pay attention and exercise their right. Don’t necessarily vote for me, but vote."Although…if you’re going to vote anyway, Amos would be happy to have your X by his name."I want people to go into that voting booth, see my name, laugh and say, ‘what the hell.’"

Imagine that this really did happen and that the Canadian government knew that it was happening.. And imagine they not only knew about it but made sure that it was kept silent. Imagine that it was all the parties that knew about it but yet still let it go on. Would that make you believe that we need to reset the whole rotten stinky horrible mess that is the governmental system we have in Canada.

AIDS is a fake disease. AZT the cure kills. Now the hep C and B. Don't take drugs from doctors. I think turpentine and caster oil would heal the blood and liver. Karocene cures brain problems. If you stop taking their drugs you will live better.

The problem with Q (& why I mistrust them) is, while they DO inform, they also basically tell you to sit back & have faith.I never trust anyone who addresses the problem, then tells me to sit on the couch & watch more while they handle it.Granted, information is a critical phase (problems need to be known before they can be addressed afterall), but there comes a point where once the info is out ACTIONS & RESULTS need to happen.In this case, has ANYTHING happened to the Officials in charge of these prisons/programs etc? I doubt it, despite all the Departmental/staff records such a place should have.Ironic Canadian Govt was allowed to buy $-sourced foreign/shipped blood yet Canadian donors cannot be paid to donate locally. Because that's "dangerous". Also shows they did not test the outsourced product at all either OR someone gave it a false "pass" to let it in.Medical "professionals" my frosty white Canadian beer-soaked weed smoking ASS~

Ever hear of those 3 Federal Agents who were executed via point-blank headshots to the temple from same handgun during the Waco shindig?Turns out they were former Secret Service during the Clinton Admin & left (loose ends).Also, the fires the Davidians "set themselves"? CS gas (w they used special vehicles to bust doorways/exits down & pumped the compound FULL of...also knowing they don't make gasmasks for children) just so happens to be flammable & flashbangs (w were thrown in after) are known to cause brushfires outside during training ops. Mix the 2 together (as the Feds would know as sev recent ops ended same way before Waco in fires)...They used FBI, ATF & even Delta Force operatives (this last one is a war crime...the ATF was only there over a couple-hundred$ fee that wasn't paid to do w Koresh's legit gun store afterall) there...Delta's deployed from an APC in back (opp side of press marshal area but taped by helos/IR cam) & machinegunned people as they fled (no weapons etc) the flames without hesitation or warning. US Spec.Forces killing US citizens at their home on US soil.Pure Saints, those Clinton's.Ever hear of one Timothy McVeigh/Oklohoma City?Neverminding the blast pattern/bldng damage doesn't match the fert bomb across the street (nor the 2nd occupant filmed getting out of truck [pssngr side] they never mentioned w fixating on McVeigh)...the Clintons had some sensitive docs that either were or soon would be subpoenaed. Guess what building in Oklohoma they were being kept at? If you need a hint, it's the one that had a truck full of fertilizer parked across from it (that was DEFO demo'd via explosives on support columns which line up with the blast damage).TL;DRYou have NO idea the Clinton body-count on U.S. citizens ALONE.

Very interesting that I did not know about. When I was foster parent for 12 years I had kids that had hep C and other things. Nobody would take them in their home but me. I had to learn a lot about it so I could lower the risk in my home and ended staying with me for 5-6 years. I also had friends that died from aids due to transfusions.

Baba 4ever I agree with you. When we hear the numbers associated with money they are astounding. I remember when I was very young and learning to count the big numbers, millions were awe inspiring, billions could hardly be imagined, trillions were thought of as fantasy! Now it’s all just common place and all the big numbers belong to them, while the vast majority of people struggle to keep food on the table.

@Divine InterloperNot surprising (except that it was a girl really)...he brought in an elderly man (& also well-known pedophile) to "tend the boys" on weekends after Maggie bailed (with Mick Jagger, wasn't it?).Hardly a surprise the Pierre Elliott Trudeau foundation's logo is near identical to the FBI's known symbols associated w men who like (very) young boys. Surely just a coincidence since the Foundation preceeds said FBI compilation.Also, HOW many people CLOSELY connected to Justin Trudeau (best friends, former roommates etc) have been connected to pedophilia/pedo rings now? I think it was 26+ last I checked...have we broke 30 yet?How MANY such "people" get tied so close to 1 guy without him actually being involved, statistically, I wonder?(Ask the Globe & Mail why he isn't a drama teacher anymore...they'll tell you they can't answer because the publication ban that was placed on them to keep them from reporting about how JT committed a statutory rape on a [minor] female student of his)I know I haven't met convicted/known pedophiles routinely (they USED to be court obligated to inform you, likely not now, bad for their self-esteem I suppose)...nor have numerous people in my past associations turned out to be later. I DAMN sure didn't grow up with the privilege or pappy-negotiated trust fund based off imported Saudi Oil (spoiler alert: why Irwing is allowed to operate but Alberta isn't, they process the KSA oil ol Trudy jr is importing despite the entire industry being shut down over Weather Tax etc) like he did & grew up MUCH rougher where it'd at least make sense.

@Blemished Nicely THANKS!, while I was writing it down I obviously got confused as I felt that I couldn't remember my friend's info well.I also guessed that they've used this system since a long time, and at that time separating blood/plasma was not, publicly, available yet.By the way, I really like your incognito name. Nice to meet you. With love

@Magdalena van WeertWelcome & thank you too!Years ago (2000-ish) I had an unopened bottle of beer smashed on my face while walking home from work (like an alcohol-filled grenade going off on your face/eyes). Didn't even know the guy but guess he wanted my hat (didn't get it tho, lol)Then a few years after that making an email I saw I had to pick "scarface8903" or something (original, right?)...I overheard girls talking about makeup/cover-up & blemishes etc nearby & it hit me/was PERFECT, lols - lemons to lemonade & all~

Magdalena van Weert
@Blemished Nicely Well chosen!I collected many interesting scars over the 62 years, I ""wear" them proudly..(They stopped) when Turkish people here , asked about my most intyeresting ones, I made jokes:-My huge, colorful one on my shin: "shark attack" , "I killed it with my diver's knife and ate it afterwards" (Sharks are TRULY very tasty)(I almost died, real reason: "Erysipelas " )-My upper arm: A woman's bite in Holland: she was waiting at my frontdoor for my lady neighbour to come outside: they had a vicious fight in my hall way.I tried to kick her out, and she bit me. My joke:"It'sa wound, caused during the war"I got fed up telling these jokes, so I told the truth. The jokes were better though.

@Magdalena van WeertLols, nice!Fun fact I learned from the man holding the record for longest time spent lost at at sea & survived (his name was Poon Lim IIRC...I re poon from the term "pooned" tho not related)He spent over 6months floating in wreckage after his ship was destroyed before being rescued.He used seaweed etc to lure/kill & eat seagulls & shredded his lifejacket to wear as wraps so as to kill/eat sharks bare-handed (turns out they have razor sharp scales for added enjoyment), since he had the wreckage to float/needed food more than the lifejacket.Helluva trooper, that one~

Magdalena van Weert
@Blemished Nicely You believe liesThis morning I've spent hours providing thruth.Enjoy..... what ever you fancy

Blemished Nicely
@Magdalena van Weert???I have no idea what you mean, what lies am I believing?I think you may have replied to me by accident thinking I was someone else maybe?Poon Lim was lost at sea for 6months & survived...my name I chose/story behind it is true & I was laughing/saying "nice!" at the stories you said you told others about your scars as they were more amusing than the real stories behind them (poorly repeating your own words there, admittedly)...Gotta admit, this reply confuses me.Either way, have a good one~

One of my neighbours years ago came over one day and told me she was given bad blood through a car accident hep B or C, can't remember, at this time through the Canadian Government payout just awarded her last cheque of 35 thousand. She didn't know what to do, she still had kids at home, they needed a new car so her husband could get to work. Obviously this was for her health. At that time it was new to me... Last time I saw her 10/12 yrs ago she never mentioned any help for her health, she looked like a rake. Ontario I'm still watching this, God has a very special place for the Clintons.

Blemished Nicely
She got a payout at all???Wow, lucky...many didn't even get THAT much, even after it was officially awarded. My mother had transfusions & got lucky (no tainted stuff)...others in the same ward/same time were NOT so lucky (Hep C etc).Canada also KNEW they were sourcing prisoners. In the 1st few minutes this film itself mentions US Govt assurances of safe product via prison sourcing...no way canada didn't notice that. Damn sure never bothered to question it.You also have to remember this was the era where aids was viewed as the "gay" virus...prisons weren't huge on conjugal visits back then & have always had a certain "reputation" which perpetuates to THIS day (pop culture/movies, scared new inmate "don't drop the soap" etc), w has actually been ENCOURAGED as this view/fear facilitates deterrence from crime etc...unless you're an Official.Then you go to the rape-free country-club "prison" instead of Leavenworth etc, unlike those dirty peasant normy folk~

Baba 4ever
I still remember the horror of this news story. I had received blood transfusions following a major surgery and a lengthy recovery. Waiting for the results from testing was worse than the surgery. I was lucky.This incident simple added to my compulsion to question everything. Thank you.So sorry for your loss Agent M.....October 28.

My son girlfriend's father was hemophiliac in need of transfusions. He got HIV and HEP from these transfusions....His marriage and entire life fell apart. Got few bucks thrown at him.... Bought his daughter a Lexus.... That's all. Terrible of me, but honestly, I was happy when they broke up....

@Divine Interloper Who do you think provided this movie to Gerald? Checkout the clues I provided within this video comment section

@David Amos Okay. I will finish it soon. I have a grandchild in my home right now and he is quite a distraction. LOL

Baba 4ever
David Amos why are you showing favoritism? Pick some of us who had personal experiences. Are you looking for a soapbox? The cowards that drop crap and run are noticeable absent even though I scoured some dark corners and extended an invitation. Tells me everything I need to know about them. TMZ and tabloid mentality. Stories that affected the lives of real people....yawn. Too much for short attention spans and stunted development. They can't risk becoming educated and helping in the exposure of evil. It's so much easier to be a lemming and swarm good people.

David Amos
@Baba 4ever Who is the coward? At least I am the man with a real name What are you if not just a another noname troll without the balls to have a name to back up their insults?

Baba 4ever
David Amos my bad in not separating the comments more clearly. The first was you and the rest...... trolls.I have no reason to believe you to be a coward.As far as the name goes, unlike many of the character assassins that frequent here I must be careful for now not so much for myself but for the sake of people I care about who have been victimized and are still in serious jeopardy. I simply see my role as a truth seeker and teller. I don't consider myself an expert but I am relatively well informed. I try to keep commentators honest by checking their posts elsewhere. Many remind me of the snake poem President Trump recites. As we saw with the Timothy debauchal, people are easily mislead and share misinformation with glee.Wishing you well.

Baba 4ever
David Amo, as for the balls part I was not born with any but I have caused the balls of many beta males to permanently shrivel. Men of considerable position and power. Crossed ankles and another who recently had his 62% weakness exposed.

Baba 4ever
David Amos I rushed to apologize for your misunderstanding. Unless you drop crap and run I was not speaking to you. Did you jump to a conclusion? Are you guilty of the behavior I referenced as I have not seen it yet. Divine knows the people I am addressing.Just trying to keep the conversation honest.Have a great day.....

Baba 4ever
David Amos you did not address why you singled out Divine Interloper nor do you have too. It leaves the door open to speculation on the part of the rest of us. Just saying. I don't randomly jump to conclusions but you should see some of the shit people conjure up. Extremely fertile imaginations live in dark corners.

David Amos
@Baba 4ever YO Ye with no balls Who the Hell do you think provided this video to Gerald for you to enjoy and make comments about?The Tooth fairy???

Baba 4ever
David Amos I did not enjoy it. I, unlike a lot of people remember the scandal because it touched my life. I can not say with certainty whether I had seen this documentary but the information is not new to me as I followed it closely.I appreciate you providing it as you can see there are many here that did not hear anything about it. Sadly the vast majority don't give a shit if it doesn't affect them or isn't salacious. The blue dress would draw thousands. Tainted blood. ...yawn.I do not want to engage in wanton pissing contests. Thanks. All the best.

David Amos
@Baba 4ever Never forget that you picked the fight not I . Methinks if you are gonna run with the big dogs you need to know how to piss in the tall grass N'esy Pas?

Baba 4ever
David Amos, I did not pick a fight but simply asked a question.As far as the dog part goes you have no idea how many BIG DOGS I have run off. Do not mistake me for a shrinking violet. I am not the one waiting around for a trophy to arrive. Some of us have paid in real blood and tears. Who let the dogs out is our theme song. There may come a time when we may sit down and swap war stories and I can guarantee you that my shit will out match yours. Not boasting. Just saying. Not expecting a trophy. Simply fulfilling a purpose as there don't seem to be many alpha bitches around these days. Love a good scrap to keep Joe Biden dementia away.Have a great day.

David Amos
Shame on you Trust that you could not pay me to talk to you now.

Divine Interloper
@David Amos I subscribed to you so will watch. I also finished this video. Really sad what happened under those demons in Ark. Mena, the two boys on the railroad tracks...plane loads of drugs thanks to the C_A under Bush Sr. Mark Phillips was a very close friend until he passed away two years ago, partly from almost being beaten to death by HRC's thugs. I'm still good friends with Cathy. I did see you in profile in the video as "David" I think. Sad state of affairs. What can I do?

Baba 4ever
David Amos go back and read my first comment to you. You sir over reacted. I apologized but you escalated the discourse. You are new here and do not know that I have been trying to keep the shit disturbers out so that AM can focus on his mission. You have no idea the crazies that have been here over many days. Insanity.No disrespect intended but neither will I take it. Ask AM.

Absolutely.1) Arkansas was reassuring US Citizens it was safe (meaning there was rumblings to merit said reassurances)2) Ever heard of a Dr./Medical "professional" who doesn't test transplanted organs or surgery patients for medical irregularities/deficiencies? I haven't, nor would I believe they would import plasma etc on good faith (they should be obligated to test type to validate proper categorization as well as to screen pathos etc) before use.3) Guarantee the cases didn't happen all at once. The Canadian system KEPT the operation rolling FAR longer than the time it'd take to see all the infected/effected were transfusion recipients & they DEFO record batches, origins etc.Absolutely someone in the Canadian Govt if not high-ups in the medical system itself KNEW.You can tell the way they squirm/suppress records & access the U.S. side knew too. Bastards.

Internal RCMP reviews find illegal arrests, incomplete investigations

Management reviews give previously hidden look at quality of RCMP investigations



Shane Magee· CBC News· Posted: Aug 04, 2020 6:00 AM AT




Hundreds of pages of internal RCMP records outline how the force has viewed the quality of its own investigations in recent years across New Brunswick. (Shane Magee/CBC)

Internal reviews of RCMP investigations across New Brunswick in recent years found illegal arrests, failures to offer support services to domestic violence victims, and a lack of supervision that affects the quality of policing in the province.

RCMP reports called management reviews offer a previously undisclosed look at how the force itself viewed the quality of its criminal investigations over recent years across the province.

A review of the Campbellton RCMP district in 2014 showed officers went into homes to arrest people six times without a required warrant to do so, making the arrest illegal. A 2017 Hampton review found police bringing cases to the Crown that couldn't be supported by the evidence.



One stark report from 2012 of the policing district around Woodstock found:
  • 52 per cent of investigations reviewed met expectations, "well below" the average of 84 per cent across the province set in 2009;
  • 58 per cent of the investigations were considered complete or thorough;
  • 55 per cent of files showed suspects were arrested when they should've been;
  • 60 per cent of cases showed statements taken from victims when they could have been; and
  • Briefs prepared for the Crown prosecutor were "often incomplete" and returned for further work. 
A Woodstock-area review from 2017 doesn't offer similar percentages and is generally favourable. It describes the overall thoroughness of investigations as meeting expectations with six of 32 files reviewed not meeting standards (it describes an unwillingness to charge female suspects of domestic assault as part of the problem).

While some of the findings are now several years old, they describe the quality of investigations ranging from property crimes to more serious assaults, crimes that involved victims seeking justice and suspects facing potential prosecution.


Lawyer Gilles Lemieux says he applauds proper investigations but those that aren't complete affect both victims and suspects. (Andrew Vaughan/Canadian Press)

Gilles Lemieux, a defence lawyer who has worked in the province for 30 years, said he applauds investigations properly carried out, but is concerned about the number of cases deemed not complete or thorough.

"There's either a victim or a suspect who is not properly served by the system and that to me is serious stuff," Lemieux said.

Assistant Commissioner Larry Tremblay, the commanding officer of New Brunswick RCMP, did not provide an interview when requested in June and July.



Cpl. Jullie Rogers-Marsh instead sent a written statement saying there has been "significant organizational changes" since some of the reviews were done.

"Many of the issues raised in these documents were addressed through those changes, or specific action plans," Rogers-Marsh said, without referring to any specifics.


Cpl. Jullie Rogers-Marsh says since some of the reports were completed that changes have been made, though did not provide specific examples. (CBC)

Roger Brown held Tremblay's position when some of the reports were completed and is now Fredericton's police chief. Brown did not provide an interview.

The issues are outlined in management reviews the force carries out every few years at divisions or detachments across the country. The reviews evaluate everything from officer morale, community satisfaction with the force, handling of evidence to the adequacy of investigations.

The reviews see officers from one area, such as Moncton, evaluate the performance of their peers in another area like Campbellton. Copies of the reviews, which contain recommendations for improvement as well as good practices, are sent to commanding officers for the province and area reviewed.

Reports released years after requested

CBC News obtained copies of reports completed between 2005 and late 2017 in New Brunswick through an access to information request filed in January 2018. The reports spanning 440 pages were released in late May 2020, making the 2017 reports the most recent ones available.



While many of the reviews offer positive findings, common issues with investigations have been noted in various parts of the province. The documents don't say what changes occurred after they were completed.

Some of the strongest comments are in a 2014 report of the Campbellton policing district, the most recent report for that region. The review looked at 12 cases involving RCMP officers entering homes with the intention of arresting someone.

A landmark Supreme Court of Canada decision in 1997 requires police obtain a warrant to enter a person's property, home or business with the intention of arresting a person. There are limited exceptions like imminent threats to safety.

'No legal basis' to make arrests

In six of the 12 Campbellton-area cases, "there was no legal basis to effect the arrest" because police lacked a required warrant, the review found.

That and other issues relating to arrests were attributed to "a lack of policy knowledge, and resistance to required protocols, taking shortcuts when knowing better."

Not correcting the problems, the report says, can lead to the loss of cases in court, risk to victims, limited knowledge growth among officers, civil litigation and loss of public confidence.



The report doesn't say what happened in the cases with warrantless arrests.

Former provincial court judge Irwin Lampert says during his time on the bench he saw most officers complied with the charter. (Kate Letterick/CBC News )

A poorly executed police investigation can affect the court process.

During criminal proceedings, police cases are disclosed to a person facing charges. Charter violations can result in charges not being laid or being withdrawn.

Lemieux said he's had clients facing charges where police haven't collected certain evidence or canvassed to find witnesses who may offer a different view of events.

"It's hard to explain to a client that he has to go to trial and that the evidence doesn't support it," Lemieux said.

"He's acquitted, he or she is acquitted. They've gone through the system and come out the other end acquitted, but certainly not unscathed. And that's difficult."



Judge's view

Irwin Lampert, a provincial court judge in Moncton who retired last year, said he would be surprised if some of the issues found in the older reports continued to this day.

"I saw very very few examples of police officers who would obviously violate an accused's rights under the charter," Lampert said of his time on the bench, referring to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

"Some were through inadvertence rather than malfeasance. In some cases they just didn't realize that they were doing something wrong and it would be pointed out to them and you would hope that it wouldn't happen again."

New Brunswick is among three provinces where Crown prosecutors must approve charges before they are laid in court.

Court issues 

A 2017 review of the Hampton detachment is generally favourable, but describes prosecutions abandoned or dropped.

In three of 45 cases brought to the Crown by police, the evidence didn't support the charges. Issues with arrests in two of the 45 cases led to the Crown not prosecuting. The report pointed to a lack of supervision as a contributing factor.



"When supervision is not taking place, solvable, prosecutable cases could result in acquittals or charges forwarded when not warranted, bringing liability to the organization and members," the report says.

Rogers-Marsh, the RCMP spokesperson, said "in recent years" there's been a formalized training program for anyone in a supervisory or managerial role. The statement wasn't clear whether that deals with the issues identified in the reports.

Several former Crown prosecutors approached for interviews declined to comment. The province's director of public prosecutions wouldn't provide an interview.

"The issue you have inquired about is a law enforcement matter, therefore it would be inappropriate for Public Prosecutions Services or the Department of Justice and Office of the Attorney General to comment," Paul Bradley, a spokesperson for the department, wrote in an email.

Lampert said most cases he presided over were well prepared given screening provided by the Crown pre-charge approval process.

"There are those checks and balances," Lampert said. "Most of the time we didn't have much problem with that."



In Moncton, a file reader/case manager position cut seven years ago was reestablished because of issues with case files after it was eliminated. The position had been cut in 2013 and the work done by RCMP officers instead.

"However, in the past 2 years, the CROWN has seen an increase in court files that lack the necessary investigational requirements (not court ready) and thus cannot proceed with charges," a 2020 budget says.

"The CROWN indicated they can no longer provide operational guidance on files and that court files will only be approved if the files are court-ready from the outset."

A 2015 review of Codiac, one of the largest RCMP detachments in the country, found that almost half of suspects, including some in custody, were not approached for an interview. Files, the reviewers noted, didn't say if a second attempt was made.

When statements were taken, "almost all" complied with policy, the review found.

It found that in cases where police deem there's little chance of conviction, statements weren't being taken.


The areas identified within the review of this activity, which are problematic, have the potential in some instances to jeopardize court proceedings and may call in to question statement validity.
- 2015 Codiac Regional RCMP management review 
In about 20 per cent of cases examined, a statement should have been taken in what the review describes as the first instance instead of passed along to someone else to take. The report points to a lack of supervisory oversight and policy awareness.

"The areas identified within the review of this activity, which are problematic, have the potential in some instances to jeopardize court proceedings and may call in to question statement validity."

Charles Léger chairs the policing authority board and hadn't seen the reports before CBC News provided a copy of the 2015 report. Léger said reviewing it, he saw issues that later led to police implementing changes and making budget requests.

Lampert, who retired from the bench in February last year, now serves on the Codiac Regional Policing Authority, which oversees Codiac RCMP. He said he hadn't heard of the management review reports before and would like to see them in his role on the board.

I cannot think of a worse job than being a police officer. Working nights, deaths, domestic violence, distrust in law enforcement, and while trying to do your job the best you can, the very real possibility you make a split second mistake, and you yourself end up in jail the rest of your life!



Terry Tibbs
Reply to @Bill Henry: Paperwork, and the lack of the proper paperwork, could hardly be lumped in with split second mistaken decisions.


Dan Moore 
Reply to @Bill Henry: Yes, policing is a difficult job, if it is your worst job don't become a police officer. We should demand only the best suited become police officers and you clearly don't fit the bill. Also be aware that in that 'split second' mistake that could end you up in jail could also take the life of an innocent person as we have seen happen in the US time and again though less so in Canada, it still occurs. Being a police officer should not put you above the law rather place you under greater scrutiny as it is their job to enforce it. All aspects of it including presumed innocence and other constitutional rights.

Some time, I'd like to hear the police side.



Matt Steele 
Reply to @John Sollows: .....It sounds like the reporter asked for the police side , but were met with a wall of silence . There is certainly a Blue Wall that is preventing police accountability , and where good police officers are expected to cover for the bad police officers who abuse their positions .


David Amos
Reply to @John Sollows: Good luck with that



























Matt Steele
Irwin Lampert, a provincial court judge in Moncton who retired last year, said..... "Some were through inadvertence rather than malfeasance. In some cases they just didn't realize that they were doing something wrong and it would be pointed out to them and you would hope that it wouldn't happen again."
That pretty much sums the problem up right there where police are not held accountable for their actions , and the people in the position of over seeing the Justice System let it slide , and hope that the police will do better . That combined with the militarization of the police is rapidly eroding the public's trust in the police and Justice System . You need to look no further than what is currently happening in the U.S. to see where things are eventually heading .When the only tool that the police have is a hammer , then every problem starts to look like a nail .

To me it shows there are checks and balances in place, in the system, that are working.

However, I feel that the law & order bureaucracy in Canada is too insulated and lacks real transparency and accountability. Elections and short term limits for Judges, Crown Prosecutors and police chiefs would help solve the problem.

What about lost police reports? Or is that filed under incomplete investigations? I've already told my story about a lost Fredericton Police report. They couldn't even confirm officers had been to a residence a few days prior.

Absolute joke.

Reply to @Justin Gunther: I beg to differ



Jill Bennet
Reply to @Justin Gunther:
It sounds like you have been through something difficult. It is extra-wounding when there is also underlying mental health stuff going on and weaker supports-- hurts extra when we are marginalized, with weak advocacy, mediation on our behalf. We are more likely to have some weirder encounters with police, because if the illness has lead to poverty, more likely to be in the wrong place, wrong time, stigmas, not be believed. More likely to become victims of crime.

I have been marginalized all along, starting with severe and prologued childhood abuse, dangerous situations-- and it doesn't fit the myths others are taught to believe, as a result, that has caused me so many years of confusion-- vile violence, orphaned, narcissistic abusers-- they don't realize they have the problem. How can cops really sort that stuff out, child protection is just as confused, lol.

Very hard to get help. Huge sti gma-- get over it, but when the brain has ptsd, it imposes some challenging limits especially when access to help is really hard to get-- years on waitlists that never end.

We learn to endure a system that is not well-tailored to us and often it can't even meet us half-way. But I believe in persevering anyways, but for sanity's sake it helps me to be more realistic about the system's limitations-- one size does not fit all-- its tailored to suit the already protected classes, and let them get outraged when/if it ever effects them directly, lol. Myths about how things actually are fills in the rest, lol People sleep easily at night, until they can't, lol

I've had multiple weird experiences of the system, its a lot more chaotic than most would believe, including being a lot less rational than what we'd hope and expect from it, lol




Jill Bennet 
Reply to @Justin Gunther:
When it is mucked up out there, key is to give yourself some credit for your own resilience to have endured it, awoken to it. There is nothing wrong with insisting better accountability, supervision and transparency. We could also have it a lot worse, but it is good when there is movement to encourage better standards with the aim of improving things, so less have to suffer from the stupider stuff ;-)

Be strong, stay well, your best well. . . All the Best ;-)

Internal RCMP reviews find illegal arrests, incomplete investigations

Management reviews give previously hidden look at quality of RCMP investigations
Shane Magee · CBC News · Posted: Aug 04, 2020 6:00 AM AT

"Irwin Lampert, a provincial court judge in Moncton who retired last
year, said he would be surprised if some of the issues found in the
older reports continued to this day.

"I saw very very few examples of police officers who would obviously
violate an accused's rights under the charter," Lampert said of his
time on the bench, referring to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

"Some were through inadvertence rather than malfeasance. In some cases
they just didn't realize that they were doing something wrong and it
would be pointed out to them and you would hope that it wouldn't
happen again."

New Brunswick is among three provinces where Crown prosecutors must
approve charges before they are laid in court.

PPC Leader Maxime Bernier announces Sask. federal candidates during
visit to Regina
Social Sharing


'I like to have people who are new in politics, that’s what we need'
CBC News · Posted: Jul 30, 2019 7:04 PM CT


Maxime Bernier, the leader of the People's Party of Canada, speaks
with reporters outside the Legislative Building in Regina on Tuesday.
(Tyler Pidlubny/CBC News)

Immigration, free speech and equalization reform were talking points
for People's Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier and the
Saskatchewan federal candidates he announced during a visit to Regina
on Tuesday.

Bernier told reporters at an event outside the Legislative Building he
was pleased that some of the candidates are new to politics and their
platforms were varied.

"Because actually they are not traditional politicians and they are
regular people that want to help their citizens in working for their
country," said Bernier.

"I like to have people who are new in politics, that's what we need,
we need more people like that."
Roster of candidates growing

>>
>> Fredericton, New Brunswick, December 23, 2015
>>
>> PRESENT:        The Honourable Mr. Justice Bell
>>
>> BETWEEN:
>>
>> DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
>>
>> Plaintiff
>>
>> and
>>
>> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>
>> Defendant
>>
>> ORDER
>>
>> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
>> December 14, 2015)
>>
>> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
>> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
>> 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.
>>
>>
>> AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
>> the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion.  There
>> is no order as to costs.
>>
>> “B. Richard Bell”
>> Judge

>>
>> Below after the CBC article about your concerns (I made one comment
>> already) you will find the text of just two of many emails I had sent
>> to your office over the years since I first visited it in 2006.

>>  I noticed that on July 30, 2009, he was appointed to the  the Court
>> Martial Appeal Court of Canada  Perhaps you should scroll to the
>> bottom of this email ASAP and read the entire Paragraph 83  of my

>> Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide

>> 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

>> 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

>> 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,

>>
>> 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,

> 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

> 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

>
> 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

Former Moncton judge takes on new role with the law
Social Sharing

Irwin Lampert retired after he spent 30 years as a Moncton provincial
court judge
Kate Letterick · CBC News · Posted: Jun 14, 2019 7:27 AM AT


Irwin Lampert, a former provincial court judge, says he's excited to
take on his new role as a member of the Codiac Regional Policing
Authority. (Kate Letterick/CBC News )

Irwin Lampert hung up his judicial robe and retired in February. But
the former Moncton provincial court judge doesn't plan on taking it
easy.

Lampert was recently appointed to the Codiac Regional Policing
Authority. He attended his first meeting Thursday evening.

"I like to keep busy and I think it's a recipe for disaster to be
idle, especially for a person like me." Lampert said.

    Panhandling complaints in Moncton provoke joint RCMP-city project
    Codiac RCMP to add Mounties as calls rise, shifts fail to meet
minimum staffing

The Authority's responsibility is to ensure adequate policing in the
municipalities of Dieppe, Moncton and Riverview.

"They do very interesting work, very important work and I'm very happy
to have the opportunity to contribute," he said. "With my background,
I probably can contribute a bit and I hope to do so."
Making a difference

Lampert spent 30 years on the bench. Although he misses his
colleagues, he wanted to do something different.

"I feel that I really did have an opportunity to make a difference
with some people, and not many people can say that in their career —
that they can make a difference."

Moncton. (CBC News )

And he wanted to continue to make a difference.

After he retired, the former judge started to explore the City of
Moncton website, scrolling through different committees that might
interest him. Then he sent in his application.

Lampert was later contacted by Charles Leger, chair of the Codiac
Regional Policing Authority and met with others on the committee.

Eventually, he was appointed.
'A matter of prioritizing'

Whether it's an increase in cybercrime or opioid use, Lampert says
police officers face a number of challenges in today's society.

"All these different things are coming to the forefront and the police
have to deal with them and the resources are tight." he said.

"It's a matter of prioritizing and I'm sure that's very difficult to
do at times."

Authority Thursday evening in Dieppe. (Kate Letterick/CBC News)

At the committee meeting, Lampert was welcomed by Leger and Codiac
RCMP Superintendent Tom Critchlow.

During various discussions, the former judge jumped right in,
questioning Critchlow about the 154 traffic tickets handed out in May.

He said that works out to about four tickets each day and was
surprised by the low number.

"At the end of the day this is about trying to balance our resources
in line with the priorities that we have," Critchlow responded.

Lampert says he'll be there to ask questions when necessary, joking
he's not one to hold back.

"The whole object is to do good for the city of Moncton. To make sure
they get a bang for their buck. To make sure they get excellent police
protection," he said.

How the pandemic pushed puffin research back years

COVID-19 has even affected a remote seabird research station in the Gulf of Maine



Shane Fowler· CBC News· Posted: Aug 04, 2020 6:30 AM AT



Every year, thousands of puffins breed and nest on Machias Seal Island in the Bay of Fundy. (Shane Fowler/CBC)

Machias Seal Island is tiny speck of land in the Gulf of Maine.

But despite being more than 15 kilometres away from any mainland, the pandemic has found a way to derail more than 25 years of research on Atlantic puffins and a variety of other seabirds.

Host to the most important puffin colony south of Newfoundland, Machias Seal Island also happens to be a piece of land that Canada and the U.S. each claims as its own.


That complication, coupled with COVID-19, has scientists scrambling to salvage what they can in order to maintain data sets that date back to 1994.

"It's actually a really big hit to our research program," said Heather Major, an associate professor at the University of New Brunswick who runs the seabird research program on the disputed island.


Heather Major, an associate professor at the University of New Brunswick, heads the research project on Machias Seal Island that has been studying seabirds for the last 26 years. (Submitted by Heather Major)

Normally, each summer researchers from UNB set up camp on the island to monitor, count and place leg bands on six species of seabirds. Those include razorbill, Leach's storm petrel, Arctic tern, common tern, common murre, and the iconic Atlantic puffins.

The research keeps track of how each population is faring from year to year, as well as keeping tally on birth rates and successful hatches. Banding the birds also allows researchers to note how many are returning year after year, giving valuable survival metrics and providing an overall view of the health of a population.

But this year COVID-19 restrictions kept most of that from happening.

The eight-hectare island hosts two full-time Canadian lighthouse keepers. Precautions had to be put in place to ensure researchers did not bring the coronavirus to them.


According to Major, because the island is designated "an important bird area," and because of its unique status as "contested," it's managed by the federal government instead of the Province of New Brunswick. Several levels of restrictions had to be lifted, and several levels of federal government had to be satisfied before scientists could set foot on Machias Seal.

The first of those hurdles was restrictions preventing access to important bird areas by Environment and Climate Change Canada. Those were lifted in early June, according to Major.

But because researchers and equipment have to travel to the island by boat, it led to another delay.
"Then there was a Transport Canada directive that passenger vessels couldn't take people out on the water," said Major. "That got lifted on July 1."

Researchers needed the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to give special permission to land on the island, said Major.

"All of it makes perfect sense," said Major. "But that doesn't mean it wasn't frustrating."


Then poor weather conditions pushed the team back even further.

They landed on the island July 4. It was too late to witness the birds' arrival, breeding and hatching season.
 

Machaus Seal Island remains the last area between Canada and the United States where both countries claim sovereignty, but to this day it remains contested. It's currently manned year round by two Canadian lighthouse keepers. (Shane Fowler/CBC)

Bad luck also didn't help. Early in the season the lighthouse keepers relayed back to researchers that the birds had landed early this year.

"The birds are all early this year, so they're already all leaving the island," said Major. "Great for them, because they're doing really, really well this year, but we don't have a lot of the measures to compare how well they're doing this year to previous years.

"So, we won't actually know how much better they're doing this year than they have in the past.

"I've had a lot of conversations with people who say, 'Well, why don't you just stay out longer.' And it doesn't actually work that way. Because the birds are only there for a certain number of weeks and if you're not there on those weeks, you just lose the year."

Major predicts this year's research loss will be felt in the project's data set for at least the next three years.

"Three years of data that is going to be of lesser quality than other years," said Major.

The UNB researchers have been scrambling to band as many birds as possible as they leave the island, as well as get in as many observation hours as possible in order to lessen the gap between previous research years, but the long delays in getting to the island mean the damage has already been done.

But as bad that's been for the research team, another setback could prove to be even worse.

Tern concerns

Both Arctic terns and common terns had been using Machias Seal Island as a breeding ground for at least 150 years.

But in 2006 the population almost completely disappeared. Where once thousands of birds came year after year, only a few dozen showed up. No one knew why. And no one knew where they went.



Since then researchers have been working to make the island more attractive to the population. Their simple presence on the island often deters hungry herring gulls from feasting on tern eggs and chicks.

The team also works to keep the predatory seabirds from nesting on the island and breeding.
Since 2017 those efforts seemed to be paying off.

"Every year we go out there's more terns nesting on the island and they keep doing better and better," said Major.

But last year a series of brutal rainstorms hit the island during the terns nesting period and wiped out all but about 10 per cent of new hatchlings.
  

Two Canadian lighthouse keepers man the Machias Seal lighthouse throughout the year. In the summer months they are normally joined by UNB researchers and thousands of seabirds. (Shane Fowler/CBC)

"Terns are one of these species that if anything bad happens they abandon really easily," said Major. "Some birds, like puffins or razorbills, are much more strongly attached to their nesting colony and they'll continue to come back even if bad things happen. But terns aren't like that."

Getting to the island late this year meant researchers couldn't tell if any terns had returned to nest, and they couldn't prevent predators from preying on them if they had returned.


Their observations so far don't look good.

"We do actually now have gull chicks that are running around, and are big, are eating all kinds of seabirds," said Major.

But according to Major the lighthouse keepers did spot terns before her team arrived.

"They told us that the terns came back and were back for a couple of weeks and then they all left," said Major. "The crew we have on the island right now has not seen any evidence of tern nesting this year, so that's really unfortunate news."

 
Arctic terns, like this one seen on Machias Seal Island in 2017, had been returning to the island after their large-scale disappearance around 2006. Several setbacks now bring their rebound into question. (Submitted by Heather Major)

Despite this year's research being somewhat of a wash, and the future of the tern population once again in question on Machias Seal Island, the puffins seem to be OK.

Every two years researchers do a population census. Luckily, the last one was completed a year ago, skipping tumultuous 2020. And thanks to the data collected at the very start of the project, scientists can compare numbers and state that the puffin population on the little island is stable.

"In 2019, we had about 8,500 pairs nesting on the island," said Major. "Which is actually just about the exactly the same as the number that was nesting there 25 years ago."

David,

I thought you would enjoy this video, wherein Puffin expresses her
feelings about the renegotiation of NAFTA and the underlying
unfairness of the global trading regime. This was originally filmed
using Hamish as the actor but we had complaints from the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Australians.

Sincerely,

Dominic

Dear Mr. Amos,

As a regular correspondent I thought you would like to know that it's
Hamish's 20th birthday! We even gave him some butter tarts in your
honour! I'm sure he'd appreciate a note.

Have a good weekend, best wishes,

    Chief electoral officer prefers byelections over general election

    Kim Poffenroth says byelections are good first test of new protocols



    Mia Urquhart· CBC News· Posted: Aug 04, 2020 7:29 PM AT



    Elections New Brunswick is preparing for upcoming byelections and the possibility of a general election. Either way, going to the polls during a pandemic will look different. (CBC)

    The best contingency plan for holding an election during a pandemic is to not hold an election during a pandemic, according to Liberal MLA Roger Melanson.

    "That would be the best case scenario for everybody to stay safe and be safe and don't have to worry about their public health during a pandemic," Melanson told a standing committee of the legislature Tuesday afternoon.

    He told the hearing that New Brunswick shouldn't hold a general election in the shadow of COVID-19.






    Premier Blaine Higgs hasn't ruled out making a snap election call.

    Higgs lacks a majority in the legislature and the pending retirement of PC MLA Bruce Northrup will make it even harder for the government to win confidence votes and pass legislation.

    At the very least, two byelections are required, with vacant seats in Saint Croix and Shediac Bay - Dieppe, and Higgs has said he isn't sure whether to call a general election or just go ahead with byelections.

    He acknowledged last month that many New Brunswickers don't want to go to the polls in a pandemic.


    Chief electoral officer Kim Poffenroth told a standing committee of the legislature that she's ready for a general election but would prefer to test new pandemic-related protocols on a smaller scale. (Graham Thompson/CBC)

    Kim Poffenroth, the chief electoral officer at Elections New Brunswick, said the province is ready for an election, but that she would prefer to test the new procedures around pandemic safety with a byelection rather than a full-scale provincial election.

    "It's really all about being able to test new procedures," Poffenroth told reporters after the hearing.






    "Elections New Brunswick, I think rightfully, tends to be conservative when it comes to testing new procedures. So we like to test things at a small scale before we implement them on a large scale," she said.

    Also, there are a number of things that Elections New Brunswick cannot pilot during a general election.

    One of those would change the way votes are collected. Poffenroth said she'd like to run a test of telephone voting — and that can only be done during a byelection.

    "Unfortunately, I don't have any authority to pilot that kind of novel voting process at a general election," she explained.

     Behind the scenes preparations underway to navigate risks of possible snap election

    Moncton Centre Liberal MLA Rob McKee said the Liberals have heard that a campaign could begin as early as this week, which would put election day in early September.






    During Tuesday's standing committee on "procedure, privileges and legislative officers," several politicians voiced their opposition to holding a general election.


    Moncton Liberal MLA Rob McKee said it would be “irresponsible” to call an election in a pandemic. (CBC)

    McKee told the hearing that it would be "irresponsible" to call an election in a pandemic.

    He asked Poffenroth what contingency plans and safety protocols will be put in place. He also wondered what would happen if someone showed up at a polling station not wearing a mask.

    The bottom line is that masks will not be enforced, said Poffenroth.

    "One's right to vote is the most basic democratic right. It's No. 3 under the Charter of Rights," she told the committee.

    Voters will be asked to wear a mask, but they will not be turned away.






    "I don't believe I have the authority, constitutionally, to do that," she said.
    The staff at polling stations won't "get into a fight with somebody and throw somebody out of a polling location because they refuse."

    While there are a few more powers that Poffenroth would like to see given to Elections New Brunswick, the power to stop an election is not one of them — not even during a pandemic.

    "As the chief electoral officer, I did not want the authority to determine whether an election should be paused or put on hold."

    She said "some additional flexibility to deal with public health emergencies" would be helpful in a pandemic, but the decision to halt an election should rest with the Legislative Assembly.

    'Flatten the election curve'

    Using a term from the pandemic lexicon, Poffenroth encouraged voters to "flatten the election curve" in an effort to reduce crowds at polling stations on election day.






    She wants people to consider voting at advanced polls or at the returning office in their riding, or by using mail-in ballots.

    And if they do vote on election day, she suggested avoiding peak voting times — on the way home from work and after supper.

    "So trying to encourage people that can get out to vote early if they have some flexibility in their work, or if they don't work, to vote at those off-peak times."

    Poffenroth told the committee that Elections New Brunswick has spent more than $1 million to make voting in a pandemic safer for everyone.
    All polling staff will wear masks and/or face shields, and masks will be provided to voters who don't have their own.

    "We've spent a little over a million dollars and the largest portion of that is for masks and face shields both for our workers and voters."






    She said each polling station will also have two additional COVID-related positions — a personal protection constable, who will explain the safety protocols, ask them to use hand sanitizer, and offer them a mask if they don't have one; and a roving constable, who will ensure high-touch points are properly sanitized.

    Mail-in ballots

    Poffenroth hopes that more people will use mail-in ballots.

    She thinks there may be a misconception among voters that only those outside the province can use this method.

    Elections New Brunswick has ordered an increased supply of mail-in ballots and bought $19,000 worth of stamps. Normally, voters were expected to pay their own postage, but under the circumstances, Poffenroth felt it was "appropriate" for Elections New Brunswick to foot the bill.

    Opposition positions

    Liberal Leader Kevin Vickers has said he does not want an election this year and said his party would not force an election.

    Green Party Leader David Coon also said this isn't the right time for an election.

    People's Alliance leader Kris Austin has said he doesn't think New Brunswickers want an election.

    If people can work, go out to the stores, visit families, etc I can't imagine how voting would be so dangerous.


    SarahRose Werner 
    Reply to @Gerry Ferguson: I've scrutineered for a few elections and the polling places can get fairly well jammed up at some times of day. It can be managed, but a trial run in managing it - for example, in by-elections - would be useful.

    With a minority govt. in place for the past couple of years , and with three by-elections in the wings ; it would be wise to have a general election , and clear the air ; because failure at the polls during the by-elections could topple the govt. anyways . It sounds like many of the opposition MLAs are scared of an election because they might lose their seats along with their fat salaries , expense accounts , and gold plated pension plans .

    If we can consider sending kids to school, opening the province for travel within the Atlantic Bubble, re opening for business, we can certainly hold an election.
    Not that any of the politicians have shown or stated what they would do differently. Higgs doesn't have a mandate to deal with the fallout of Covid-19, the government could easily fall through the 2 by elections.
    One final comment, migrating to phone in ballots is likely a step NB is not ready for. Cell phone calls are notoriously easy to hack/ intercept compared to landlines. VoIP depending upon the encryption used by the carrier are also an open question. Opening up phone in ballot taking could lead to a huge increase in identity theft as sophisticated criminals could eavesdrop on the call and get valuable information typically not easily accessible from the call

    Methinks Roger Melanson was just reminding the lawyer Kim Poffenroth
    who appointed her to her fancy job not long before the last writ was
    dropped N'esy Pas?





    Ray Oliver
    Why does Rob McKee look so scared? Did Amos just walk in and challenge
    him to a debate?

    SarahRose Werner
    Reply to @Ray Oliver: CBC uses that photo in any article where they
    refer to McKee. I don't think they like him very much.

    David Amos
    Reply to @Ray Oliver: Methinks your buddies Chuckty Leblanc, former
    speaker Chris Collins, his lawyer TJ Burke and everybody else knows
    why the only lawyer the liberals have with a seat in the old maison so
    to speak was afraid of me BEFORE the last election N'esy Pas?

    David Amos
    Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Why do you care about a Moncton lawyer you
    can't vote for anyway? Are you even a Canadian citizen yet?






    Gerry Ferguson
    If people can work, go out to the stores, visit families, etc I can't
    imagine how voting would be so dangerous.

    SarahRose Werner
    Reply to @Gerry Ferguson: I've scrutineered for a few elections and
    the polling places can get fairly well jammed up at some times of day.
    It can be managed, but a trial run in managing it - for example, in
    by-elections - would be useful.

    David Amos
    Reply to @Gerry Ferguson: Exactly

    David Amos
    Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Methinks it should be fun to ask if you
    worked as a scrutineer when I ran in Saint John Harbour in 2006 I
    doubt you voted for me anyway N'esy Pas?






    Matt Steele
    With a minority govt. in place for the past couple of years , and with
    three by-elections in the wings ; it would be wise to have a general
    election , and clear the air ; because failure at the polls during the
    by-elections could topple the govt. anyways . It sounds like many of
    the opposition MLAs are scared of an election because they might lose
    their seats along with their fat salaries , expense accounts , and
    gold plated pension plans .

    Terry Tibbs
    Reply to @Matt Steele:
    Since when was "wise" ever a factor in a NB election?

    David Amos
    Reply to @Terry Tibbs: Methinks it was on or about the 12th of Never






    Terry Tibbs
    So, I'm *guessing* that the money irregularities are all "fixed up",
    and we are all set to proceed with more of the
    same......................................

    David Amos
    Reply to @Terry Tibbs: BINGO





    Donald Gallant
    A week with the polls open should suffice for this election.

    David Amos
    Reply to @Donald Gallant: I concur





    David News
    If we can consider sending kids to school, opening the province for
    travel within the Atlantic Bubble, re opening for business, we can
    certainly hold an election.
    Not that any of the politicians have shown or stated what they would
    do differently. Higgs doesn't have a mandate to deal with the fallout
    of Covid-19, the government could easily fall through the 2 by
    elections.
    One final comment, migrating to phone in ballots is likely a step NB
    is not ready for. Cell phone calls are notoriously easy to hack/
    intercept compared to landlines. VoIP depending upon the encryption
    used by the carrier are also an open question. Opening up phone in
    ballot taking could lead to a huge increase in identity theft as
    sophisticated criminals could eavesdrop on the call and get valuable
    information typically not easily accessible from the call

    >> 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

    >> 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

    No election call coming this week, Higgs says

    Opposition parties against general election


    Mia Urquhart· CBC News· Posted: Aug 05, 2020 3:33 PM AT



    Premier Blaine Higgs said he's not sure whether to go ahead with three byelections or call a full general election. (CBC)

    Premier Blaine Higgs said he's not prepared to call a general election — at least not this week.

    That was about as definitive as he got when asked during a Tuesday afternoon news conference.

    With three byelections looming — and another three MLAs who haven't announced whether they'll reoffer —  Higgs still hasn't decided whether to call a full-scale election or simply have byelections, which would be held no later than Oct. 15, he said.

    "So there's no confusion there. As far as whether a general election would overtake those and they'd all be combined, that part still has to be determined and that's the part I'm weighing at this stage," said Higgs.

    He acknowledged that some voters — and all three opposition party leaders — don't want a general election.

    "I don't want an election either but I don't want to leave the government exposed to three byelections, which we're saying we must have those," he said.
    "I have never been one to be pushed into a corner," said Higgs, and the election issue is no different.
    "I'll move in the direction that I believe is right for the province. I'm looking at the long picture."

    Higgs said he has met with caucus to discuss the issue and will continue to do so. He said an election won't be called "without a clear understanding of how we can manage it safely, and how we can have an election that ensures that democracy continues to work as it needs to in order to govern our province."

    Higgs said Elections New Brunswick is working with Public Health officials and those discussions will continue.

    On Tuesday, chief electoral officer Kim Poffenroth told a standing committee of the legislature that Elections New Brunswick has made several changes to protect the public in a pandemic and has already spent an extra $1 million to do so.

    She said she prefers to have byelections before a general election so that her staff can test new COVID-19-related protocols.

    Poffenroth said she also prefers not to have the power to cancel or postpone an election mid-stream if a second wave puts the province back into orange or red restrictions.

    Higgs said it's Poffenroth's job to ensure Elections New Brunswick is ready for an election whenever the government calls it.
    "That is the mandate," he said Wednesday.


    "And so to understand what's required in order to achieve that mandate, would be squarely in the chief electoral officer's court … The mandate is: be ready. And for me, my mandate is how do I ensure we protect democracy."

    Higgs told reporters that polling results will have no bearing on the timing of an election.

    "I'm not basing this on, you know, my current level in the polls. I know how that changes overnight. So I don't put any strength or stock in how volatile that situation is."

    He also doesn't put much stock in Liberal Leader Kevin Vickers' promise not to force an election.
    "Do I put any stock in that? Absolutely not," said Higgs on Wednesday.
    Green Party Leader David Coon has said this isn't the right time for an election, and People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin has said he doesn't think New Brunswickers want an election.

    When pressed about when he will make a decision, Higgs wouldn't be pinned down.

    "So I'm sure that Elections New Brunswick ... can figure out a way that we can maintain democracy and move it in a direction that allows us to ensure we do it safely. And it would only be under those conditions of being able to do it safely that I would consider calling an election in the future."

    How often has Higgy changed his mind after he said something he deemed important for our democracy?

    Covid-19 is at a low point right now , and there are three by-elections in the wings which could very well topple the Higgs govt . Just call a provincial election for Sept. ; and let the cards fall where they may . It is better to have an election now instead of waiting to see if the govt. falls after the three by-elections , and then being forced to go to the polls in the winter months . Opposition MLAs seem to be against it because they are worried about losing their big salaries , expense accounts , and gold plated pension plans

    Methinks some folks may agree what is going on right now in Ottawa and south of the 49th has Higgy et al oh so concerned about their political futures rather than our well being. Hence its a small wonder to me why they don't even care enough to give me back my Medicare Card yet no doubt they care enough to see that this comment goes "Poof" as well N'esy Pas Mr Tibbs?

    What's right for the province? That is obvious to everyone. No election during a pandemic. Municipal elections before a provincial election. How difficult is that Mr. Higgs?


    James Smythe 
    Reply to @Douglas James: Higgs doesn’t care about that, he just wants his majority. That’s why he bankrupted the province trying to keep the case count at zero, hoping our typically older and rural populations would hand him his majority for doing so.

    This should be an easy call. Hold the by-elections and live with the results. Running everyone through an early general election may be advantageous for the party, but its not so for the public. If the result of the by-elections is that another party or group of members can carry the house, the L-G can leave them to govern until the normal 4 years from the last general election has passed. Then everyone can pull out their knives and go at it.

    is anyone...anyone aware of any meaningful stand or statement Vickers has taken or uttered since his return to NB


    Jeff LeBlanc
    Reply to @Tim Trites: nope, hasn't been one, I check every day. He just likes to feel important so being Liberal leader fills the void I guess. Miramichi folks love him oddly enough. Must have not read those ballistic reports or chose to not believe them.


    Larry Larson 
    Reply to @Tim Trites: No, the fake hero has nothing to say because he knows nothing about politics!/


    Justin Gunther
    Reply to @Larry Larson: He took a pretty hard stand over the rural healthcare row back in February. Not that I'm backing him or anybody else for that matter.


    Dan Stewart
    Reply to @Tim Trites: If you don't take a stand or make a statement at least you don't have to back peddle.? Maybe his plan is to just let Higgs do that instead.

    Dan Stewart
    Reply to @Lou Bell: Now Lou, deep down inside you know darn well that the best any provincial government here can hope for is at best two terms... Heck, the only reason Higgs is contemplating an election now is becauwe he is worried the byelections might do him in first.. I know he would like people to think its all about whats best for the province but even you know better than that... and so does most everyone else.


    Lou Bell
    Reply to @Dan Stewart: If fundraising is a sign of party popularity , the Liberals are in a deep hole. NB'ers have come to realize who the Liberals represent and it's no accident Melanson and his SANB buddies have been doing all the talking for the party ! Have any of the Liberal MLA's spoken up who were left outta the SANB planned " Phonie Games " , or were they also in on the scheme ??? Following the Federal Liberal Party template to a tee ! Dom. appears to be their insider !!!

    As I said in another media today, no mass vote by mail I will not vote and as I usually vote 9 out of 10 times Conservative or PC that is one vote my MLA Glen Savoie will not get. Rethink this one Mr. Higgs. This province is very old a grey haired residents who are the ones who usually vote for old grey haired men like you. So rethink this through.

    a general election or any election for that matter is best conducted through mail. There is no problem identified by our democrat neighbours to the south that would indicate mail in voting to be a problem whatsoever.

    An election!!!! What a great opportunity for the good people of Bathurst to re-elect - again - a Member of the Legislative Assembly from the party that seems to own the very hearts, minds and souls of the local voters.

    Never mind that this area is so staunchly in support of that party that both it and the opposition parties routinely write it off and fail to address any of its most pressing needs. Never mind that it has one of the highest unemployment rates in the country, that its economic development efforts are in the toilet, and its municipalities are basically broke and commercial buildings and churches are being abandoned and torn down. Never mind that it is one of the few areas in Canada where waterfront property on a natural harbour is going begging for someone, anyone, to redevelop it and take advantage of the spectacular views.

    None of that matters.

    In the next election, what will matter is that Bathurst will once again vote en masse to re-elect anyone or anything that is draped in the right political colours - no matter what their policies might be. Or even if they have any policies at all.

    In Bathurst, elections are basically make-work projects for the local organizers and supporters of that party.

    Nothing more
    .

    Reply to @James Risdon: As long as certain communities are "force fed" this trend will be on-going. Bathurst has been artificially grown to the point where it is not self-sustaining.

    I would hope Mr Higgs does not call an election, benefiting for a job well done with his actions with Covid 19. He must not use Covid 19 as an election platform to get a majority government. We must remember how he wants to close hospitals not too long ago. One must wonder on his thinking for personal gain using the pandemic.


    Lou Bell
    Reply to @Kim Life-Coach: You'd prefer the Liberals who attempted to underhandedly give away 130 million of OUR MONEY to the " Phonie Games " ? And have many doctors sitting idly by in ER's serving 5 or 6 patients in an 8 to 10 hour period while others wait for hours in many other crowded ER's , as well as many being sent home with pain relievers and told to return the following day ?? Gotcha !!!!

    Methinks Higgy smells a Federal Election coming just like I do. Hence

    Covid-19 is at a low point right now , and there are three
    by-elections in the wings which could very well topple the Higgs govt
    . Just call a provincial election for Sept. ; and let the cards fall
    where they may . It is better to have an election now instead of
    waiting to see if the govt. falls after the three by-elections , and
    then being forced to go to the polls in the winter months . Opposition
    MLAs seem to be against it because they are worried about losing their
    big salaries , expense accounts , and gold plated pension plans

    Methinks some folks may agree what is going on right now in Ottawa and
    south of the 49th has Higgy et al oh so concerned about their
    political futures rather than our well being. Hence its a small wonder
    to me why they don't even care enough to give me back my Medicare Card
    yet no doubt they care enough to see that this comment goes "Poof" as
    well N'esy Pas Mr Tibbs?

    Reply to @Larry Larson:
    If you notice, no one is saying anything. Usually Mr Cardy is good for
    a story, or two. Usually the reporters here chase up a politician, to
    get their take on different things, but all is silent, Afraid of
    stepping in something I'd bet.

    Reply to @Terry Tibbs: I'm back FYI I noticed what you said to me
    earlier about Higgy and elections and his buddy Cardy hunkering down
    in his bunker with his precious butter tarts went "Poof" before I
    could save it or blog it. Methinks you likely said other things as
    well but this reply of mine will have to suffice for now for blogging

    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 2002 Annual 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.

    > MR. ROUSE: I guess I don't have legal counsel either.

    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: True. So you are -- NCFS doesn't have legal counsel?
    >
    > MR. ROUSE: That's correct.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: So I will address the three of you then. So Mr. Bourque
    > and Mr. Rouse -- I think, Mr. Rouse, you know how the proceeding
    > proceeds. So Mr. Bourque, essentially when it comes and you have a
    > panel, they are subject to cross-examination. And if you do have any
    > questions specifically to the panel, you will be asked to come in
    > front and ask your question to whomever your questions you want to ask
    > to. Now if there is an objection to your questioning I would ask you
    > to stop and at that point what  I will do is I will hear the person

    > MR. BOURQUE: Yes, I do and thanks for explaining it.

    >
    > Q. - Yes.
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: Yes, I do.
    >
    > Q. - Do you know the account -- the KPMG auditor, and if so who are they?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: Sorry, I am having a little difficult time 21 hearing up
    > here, did you say the owner or the author?
    >
    > Q. - The auditors, sorry about that.
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: Yes, I do. I know the primary partner on our  particular audit
    > file.
    >
    > Q. - Do you have a name for them?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: Our primary audit partner is Jamie O'Neil.
    >
    > Q. - Jamie O'Neil. And I was a bit surprised that when I asked the
    > question earlier and there was -- the audit was not signed and any
    > business I have ever been involved with before, the auditors always
    > came and made the presentation of the audit and this didn't appear to
    > happen. Is there a reason for that?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: So I am not exactly sure of the reference that's being
    > made, but our audit statements are signed every year. As described, we
    > have a very traditional process in terms of the auditors coming in and
    > making a final presentation to the boards of directors. It's at that
    > time that we do sign off on the audited statements  and they are
    > available online for anybody to go in and view them.
    >
    > Q. - Mr. Murphy, are you familiar with David Amos and Greg Hickey and
    > their concerns about the payout to pulp mills by the NB Power Large
    > Industrial Renewable Energy Purchase programs and the fact that the
    > U.S. Department of Commerce consider it corporate welfare affecting
    > the American interest and with trade with Canada?
    >
    > MR. FUREY: Mr. Chair, we have been down this road before in previous
    > hearings. Mr. Hickey addressed this in at least one, and if I am not
    > mistaken, two hearings. And I
    > believe where we objected to certain questions of Mr. Hickey in the
    > past like this, the Board concluded that relevant questioning -- that
    > it would be a relevant question to ask questions related to compliance
    > by NB Power with provisions of the Electricity Act and the LIREPP
    > regulation, the renewable regulation, which includes the LIREPP
    > program, but debate about policy, as to whether or not LIREPP is a
    > desirable policy is not a matter for this Board and I think we have
    > had that resolved in previous hearings.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: Mr. Bourque, Mr. Furey is right. We did have -- when
    > Mr. Hickey was here last year, and I think at other hearings, we had
    > that debate and so it's a policy issue. If you have questions
    > regarding LIREPP, regarding compliance, I think you are permitted to
    > ask those questions, but if it's questions regarding policy, regarding
    > the LIREPP program, it's not relevant and it's in the legislation so
    > --
    >
    > MR. BOURQUE: I wasn't aware of what took place last year.
    >
    > Q. - Mr. Murphy, are you aware of my friend, David Amos and the
    > concerns with the NB Power since 2006?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: I would not say that I am aware of any detailed concerns
    > that Mr. Amos has expressed.
    >
    > Q. - Have you read the filings that NB Power filed into the record of
    > this matter since -- on October 30th of 2017?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: Yes, generally I have read all the documents.
    >
    > Q. - Have you read the transcript of the hearing on October 2 31st?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: I did not read the transcript.
    >
    > Q. - And have you read the emails that Mr. Amos sent since then?
    >
    > MR. MURPHY: I did not read the emails. If there is something in
    > particular that's filed on evidence that you would like to bring up on
    > the screen for me to review, I am happy to review it and answer
    > questions on it, but I have not read the emails.

    > Q. - Ms. Clark, why does NB Power consider the smart meter it  wished
    > to attach to my home a federal matter? If I get  sick, or because of
    > an injury to my home or property, do I  sue the federal or do I sue NB
    > Power?
    >
    > MS. CLARK: So with respect to the smart meters, the AMI installation,
    > we would be complying with all of Health  Canada's Guidelines with
    > respect to the meter installation.
    >
    > Q. - So if there is a problem NB Power is responsible for it or the
    > federal, if you are complying by the federal regulations?
    >
    > MR. FUREY: Mr. Vice-Chair, I don't think that's a fair question to
    > address to this panel.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: Is there going to be another panel that can address his
    > question, Mr. Furey?
    >
    > MR. FUREY: Well to be asked to comment in advance on circumstances in
    > which liability might arise, you know, certainly if there is a
    > specific fact circumstance presented, maybe the question could be
    > answered, but this is very broad.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: So are you suggesting that if he rephrases  his
    > question that this panel could answer the question?
    >
    > MR. FUREY: I guess I would have to hear the question, but I -- what I
    > am saying is the question as framed is I think impossible to answer.
    > And it's unfair to ask any witness to commit to liability around a
    > question as broad as if something goes wrong.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: Mr. Bourque, can you reframe your question?
    >
    > Q. - Well my -- my concern is the spending of a lot of money for the
    > smart meters. And as we heard earlier this morning, the temperature
    > has a big temp' -- a big effect on the use of power. Well do we need
    > to spend millions of dollars to tell us when the temperature gets
    > colder and that? NB Power knows that. When the temperature goes down,
    > they are going to have to start producing, you know, more power to
    > supply the demand. And I think it's really -- wonder if it's worth
    > sending that. The other thing is I have received some videos off the
    > internet of smart meters where they literally caught the side of the
    > house  on fire. There was pictures of just around the meter and that.
    > So if that happens to my house, who is responsible?
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: Panel?
    >
    > MS. CLARK: I will address your question in two parts. The first part
    > of it is with respect to the installation of smart meters or the AMI
    > project. The example that was given would be a perfect reason for NB
    > Power to install advanced metering infrastructure. During the times
    > when the utility or when the province is facing very cold
    > temperatures, having the advanced metering infrastructure in place
    > would allow customers to have more information readily available
    > during the month. So when we are dealing with high bill complaints,
    > like we have been this last month due to the extremely cold
    > temperatures, customers would actually be able to see their usage
    > throughout the month and not be subject to receiving a final bill at
    > the end of the month and being surprised by their consumption because
    > of the cold weather. So this would be a perfect example of why the
    > advanced metering infrastructure would be in the -- it would be in the
    > benefit of our customers.
    > The second piece, I think with reference to the safety of meters, we
    > will be following Measurement Canada safety standards, Health Canada
    > safety standards. All of our meters will be tested. And during the
    > install, we will actually be able to look at customers' premises to
    > see if there are any issues related to safety that we should be
    > addressing at the time. There are specific incidents where there have
    > been some issues with meters being installed, but those are very
    > specific to either the geographical location where they were being
    > installed or the customers' equipment itself. But again when we are
    > actually installing the meters, as we are installing 355,000 meters
    > across the province, we will actually be  able to visually inspect
    > each one of those locations to see if there is any issues with respect
    > to the meter itself or the installation that's on the customers'
    > premises. But it would depend on what exactly it is we find as to how
    > it would be handled.
    >
    > Q. - I got one final question. If a customer decides he doesn't want a
    > smart meter at his place, can he opt out?
    >
    > MS. CLARK: Yes, absolutely. We will have an opt out policy.
    >
    > MR. BOURQUE: Thank you.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: Thank you. Is that all your questions, Mr. 20 Bourque?
    >
    > MR. BOURQUE: Yes.
    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN: Okay. Thank you.
    >
    > MR. BOURQUE: Thank you.

    >
    > MR. CRONKHITE: That is a pretty broad statement. If you could be a
    > little bit more specific on restrictions you  are referring to.
    >
    > Q. - Well for an example, Mr. Cronkhite, would be the LIREPP program
    > restricts how your generation assets are used. Would you agree with
    > that?
    >
    > MR. CRONKHITE: The LIREPP program is simply a input of renewable
    > resources into the system. It does not, in my opinion, for the size of
    > the contribution, restrict our operations in any way.
    >
    > Q. - Okay. You have purchase power agreements. Do they mot also
    > dictate or indicate how your generation assets can be used?
    >
    > MR. CRONKHITE: Certainly we do have power purchase arrangements when
    > energy would be an example where we need to incorporate that wind when
    > it's generated. As a result of that, we do position, so I think maybe
    > Ms. Desmond may be asking this that we do need to position our
    > remaining fleet to accommodate or adjust and follow that wind
    > variation as it operates today. Not unlike that we would have with
    > embedded generation assets, and to a much smaller degree obviously,
    > home generation around solar and different items such as that.
    >
    > Q. - If we were to maximize the benefits of AMI in our smart grid,
    > isn't it also true that we should maximize the use of our generation
    > supply assets that we currently have, and wouldn't that mean
    > revisiting some of these existing constraints?
    >
    > MR. CRONKHITE: We are always mindful of the existing commitments that
    > we have on our system today. When we look forward with respect to the
    > time frames, and as I mentioned earlier, that this is a managed
    > transition not over five years, but over 15, 20 and 25 years, we are
    > always mindful and that's why we have looked at power purchase
    > arrangements that are coming due in the mid-20s and beyond that we
    > allow the freedom and flexibility for us to make the correct
    > adjustments, as we move towards those particular milestones.
    > With respect to new generation coming on line, that's why we do the
    > modelling, that's why we do sensitivities around various scenarios to
    > ensure that we are optimizing to the best of our ability. One of the
    > foundational items around our Energy Smart NB plan is being able to
    > connect with customers to connect to intermittent generation that we
    > know is coming onto the system in the near term and medium term and
    > having more visibility on that. So that exactly we can optimize our
    > generation fleet more effectively today through visibility on this
    > distributed generation resources so that we can synchronize it much
    > more effectively with the system moving forward.
    >
    > Q. - I wasn't specifically asking about new generation. It really was
    > the existing constraints that you have to work around and deal with in
    > terms of generation dispatch.
    >
    > MS. DESMOND: Okay. I think those are all of our questions  though.

    > BY THE BOARD:
    >
    >   VICE-CHAIRMAN:  Thank you, Ms. Desmond.  So I think we do have -- as
    > Board members we do have a couple of questions to ask.  So I will
    > start.  I am looking at your current business case that you have
    > before us with your total project contribution of minus $1.3 million.
    > And from the evidence that we have heard the last couple of days, is
    > that you consider this as a breakeven number, and I think that that's
    > what you were telling us, Ms. Clark.
    >         So the normal individual, your rate customer, would you not think
    > that he would not perceive your $1.3 million as a breakeven number?
    >
    >   MS. CLARK:  I guess in the context in which I was using breakeven is
    > it is an investment rationale document and it's intended to cover the
    > life cycle costs of the program, and those are assumptions and it's
    > hovering very close to zero when you look at it over the life cycle.
    > I think in the last few days of the hearing, we have indicated that
    > it's more than breakeven and would even say that if we were to
    > incorporate the adjustments, and the undertaking we just took from Ms.
    > Desmond to provide the adjustments that were recommended in the
    > Synapse report, we are looking at an investment rationale that is
    > leaning closer to probably $10 million or 8 or $9 million.  And if we
    > were to quantify some of those non-quantifiable benefits and be less
    > conservative in some of the estimates that we put in the investment
    > rationale document, I think we could easily get to a $10 million
    > improvement.
    >         Again, and I know you have heard this before, the intention was to
    > come in as conservative as possible, and know that we had all the
    > potential upside.  In hindsight, perhaps we should have taken a
    > different approach, but I do believe that we can demonstrate that we
    > have a positive investment rationale as well.
    >
    >   VICE-CHAIRMAN:  So there was discussion around -- and I think it was
    > brought forward by Mr. Bourque and Dr. Richard, all about -- and Ms.
    > Desmond regarding the option of option in and option out.  Have you
    > surveyed your current residential customers to see who will opt in and
    > who will opt out before making $123 million investment?
    >
    >   MS. CLARK:  Customer engagement is a big part of this project, and
    > we are as concerned as you would be about making that sort of an
    > investment.  So we will be doing, as part of our customer engagement,
    > but part of it is the focus group that we did early on is people don't
    > understand what the smart meter is, so part of it would be around
    > education of what the smart meter is and the benefits it can provide
    > to customers.  So we need to educate our customers first and then
    > allow them to make an informed decision.  So that will be part of the
    > roll-out plan and we will check and adjust along the way.  If there
    > are issues concerning the social engagement or a customer's uptake,
    > you know, this is very similar to what has been done in other
    > jurisdictions and they haven't had those challenges, but if we did, we
    > certainly wouldn't be looking at making an investment of this size
    > without having the customer with us.
    >
    >   VICE-CHAIRMAN:  Well don't you think, Ms. Clark, that you should
    > have your educational piece before the Board approves $123 million
    > spend?
    >
    > MS. CLARK:  I recognize the challenge.  The commitment the utility
    > would make is, as part of the project itself, we would be doing --
    > undertaking the engagement process with our customers again starting
    > with the education piece.
    >        Assuming that was positive, we would proceed and we are prepared
    > to give the Board updates, as we come forward, either through the general
    > rate application or through any other process including the quarterly
    > updates we are providing at this point in time on our infrastructure, so
    > that
    > can be done and conditional with the approval of the project.
    >
    >   VICE-CHAIRMAN:  So I am trying to understand the objective of the
    > AMI, and there was discussion, so can -- and I am having a little bit

    >
    > VICE-CHAIRMAN:  I was a bit surprised when I heard this morning and
    > yesterday that you are entering into a contract at the end of February
    > and is that with respect to the purchase of the smart meters?
    >
    >   MS. CLARK:  That's correct.
    >
    >   VICE-CHAIRMAN:  So how can you enter into a contract without the
    > firm approval of this Board, if we are going to approve or not the
    > AMI?  How prudent is that?
    >
    >   MS. CLARK:  So we are at the end stages of the contract in terms of

    > we -- with the vendor -- and they recognize that, because we also have

    >   VICE-CHAIRMAN:  Now there was discussion yesterday, I think it was

    > correctly?
    >
    >   MS. CLARK:  That is correct.  And in the evidence, we did answer an
    > interrogatory on that and you will see that AMI is an enabler for time
    > varying rates in the Energy Smart NB Plan.  And we did have time

    Tim Hortons COVID cop sends lawyer's letter: Take that off the Internet!

    By   June 08, 2020


    https://youtu.be/_XoJJF7ImcM


    I have an incredible update to the story of Walter Matheson. He's the Hampton, New Brunswick resident who was ticketed almost $300 by police for failure to comply with emergency measures in a Tim Hortons parking lot while he ate his muffin and finished his coffee, completely alone in his car.

    The thing is: Walter did try to comply, but the police officer stopped him, then ticketed him — even swearing at Walter at one point. It was almost too crazy to be true, however, we know it happened the way Walter describes, because Walter brilliantly recorded the interaction he had with the officer that day and gave it to us.

    You can see the full story and help Walter fight back at FightTheFines.com.

    Now, I am part of the story because the police officer who ticketed Walter is coming after me. He had a lawyer send a legal threat letter to Rebel HQ accusing me of defaming him!  
    But I’m not so sure the lawyer even watched my 10 minute video I made talking about Walter’s case, even though hundreds of thousands of other people have.

    She wrote: “We understand your reporter recorded a conversation without the knowledge of Constable Thompson... In addition Sheila Gunn Reid repeatedly mentions his name in the article”.
    I did neither of those things, but even if I had, neither one is illegal.

    And, unbelievably, the lawyer wants my copy of Walter’s recording turned over to the RCMP in Hampton.  

    No way. Today I will take you through the full letter I received from the law offices of Lutz, Longstaff and Parish in Hampton New Brunswick and let you hear what happened when Ezra called that law office to try to get to the bottom of all of this.

    Cst. Thompson and his lawyer demanding I remove critical information from my story and turn over my journalistic materials to the police proves my original thesis: This cop is a bully. 
    He tried to bully Walter Matheson in a Tim Hortons parking lot and now he’s trying to bully me, But it didn't work on Walter, and it won't work on me.

    Bring it on. I’m ready to fight.

    Police gave out at least 17 fines to people who allegedly broke emergency rules

    Head of civil liberties watchdog says incidents that drew fines are ‘trivial’


    Karissa Donkin· CBC News· Posted: Aug 06, 2020 6:00 AM AT

    Police agencies across New Brunswick have issued at least 17 tickets to people who allegedly weren't following emergency rules — for offences ranging from not social distancing to touching people at a restaurant.

    CBC News filed several access to information requests after a number of police forces refused to say how many tickets their officers have handed out, emphasizing that education is the primary objective before giving out tickets.

    The new data sheds light not just on the number of tickets given to alleged rule-breakers, but the reasons why people were fined.


    There's no evidence that the deterrent of getting a ticket with a fine has any impact on how people behave when it comes to preventing COVID-19, according to Michael Bryant, the executive director of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.

    Beyond that, he said, ticketing people "is an infringement of liberty" that isn't justified in these circumstances.

    "When I look at the evidence that you've unearthed about why these tickets have been handed out, these are frankly trivial and certainly not reckless or harmful activities," Bryant said in an interview after reviewing the ticketing data from the police forces.

    "In fact, we have no evidence that it prevented a single instance of COVID from being contracted."

    A June report released by the civil liberties watchdog and the Policing the Pandemic mapping project, which tracks enforcement of COVID-19 rules across the country, found that $13 million in COVID-related fines had been handed out across the country between April 1 and June 15. The tickets were predominantly issued in Quebec, Ontario and Nova Scotia.

    No data from NB RCMP

    While people were ticketed for not social distancing in some cases, no fines were handed out at a large gathering at Grand Lake in July. Photos of the event on social media show a large group of people swimming, boating and drinking together.


    The 17 tickets captured in this data don't include any tickets handed out by provincial enforcement officers in New Brunswick. These are the provincial employees, including forest rangers and corrections officers, who have been trained to make sure the emergency rules are respected.

    Earlier this year, CBC News found that New Brunswickers have received more than $20,000 worth of fines from provincial enforcement officers, primarily at key provincial border points. Few details have been made available around what people in those cases did to warrant a $292.50 fine.
    Data is also missing from the New Brunswick RCMP, which declined to say how many tickets it has issued. CBC News has filed an access to information request to get the data.

    "The New Brunswick RCMP is not releasing the number of tickets that have been issued as issuing tickets is only one part of our enforcement efforts and does not reflect all of the work that is being done collaboratively with communities, our policing partners and the province," New Brunswick RCMP spokesperson Jullie Rogers-Marsh said earlier this summer.

    In neighbouring Nova Scotia, the RCMP regularly issued news releases about its COVID-19 enforcement efforts for several months.

    "It cannot be right that the same police force, the RCMP, is secretive in one province and providing disclosure in the other," Bryant said.


    Not social distancing

    The Miramichi Police Force initially declined to say how many tickets were issued for people who allegedly haven't followed the Emergency Measures Act.

    "Although I do not wish to comment on the issuing of tickets, we have been following the advice of the chief medical officer for the province of [New Brunswick] in trying to educate as many people as we can on COVID-19 and what people can do to try and reduce the spread of the virus," Miramichi police Chief Paul Fiander said in April.

    After CBC News filed an access to information request, the police force revealed that it had issued seven tickets between March 19 and June 26, more than any other municipal police force. The region had only two COVID-19 cases during that time frame.

    In one instance where the Miramichi Police Force handed out tickets, three people were fined after "a complaint was received about the individuals hanging out at a residence that none of them belonged to," the records show. Police had already warned them once before.

    In a separate case, two people were fined for not social distancing in a private parking lot.
    "Both had been asked to leave the area several times by the complainant," the records say.


    Two other people were fined in separate instances for not social distancing, including one person inside an apartment building.

    According to the information provided by the police, the seven people who were ticketed didn't pay their fines, didn't show up for their scheduled court appearances and were deemed guilty by a provincial court judge.

    Fiander was not available for an interview on Wednesday.

    No tickets issued by several police forces

    The Fredericton Police Force also declined to provide details on its tickets, until CBC News filed an access to information request.

    The police force issued four $292.50 tickets between March 19 and June 26. In all four cases, court dates have been set for September or October.

    In one case, police fined a young person on Hillcourt Drive for allegedly visiting another home during a pandemic.


    In another, a person was fined on King Street for allegedly "touching people without permission at [a] food establishment."

    Several police agencies, including the Kennebecasis Regional Police Force, Grand Falls Police Force and the BNPP Regional Police, reported that they haven't issued any tickets.

    The province's chief medical officer of health, Dr. Jennifer Russell, acknowledged that fines have been given but said they seem to be "the exception rather than the rule."

    "I think it's a balance at this point in time in terms of trying to understand where people are at and what is the most educational and supportive way of getting to where we want to get to," Russell said in an interview.

    Methinks the lawyer Michael Bryant as Ontario's former Attorney General must must recall the registered US Mail (signature required) that I sent him and 7 other Attorney Generals in August of 2005. The package included the same CD and a pile of documents that the Attorney General of New Brunswick, the Deputy Prime Minister, the Governor General of Canada and many others had answered in 2004 before I was falsely arrested and imprisoned in the USA after I ran for a seat in the 38th Parliament then sued the Queen 10 very long years later N'esy Pas?

    Take a closer look at those numbers. Others have and have found that they are being fudged. They are citing motor vehicle accidents as covid 19 related deaths. Everything that respiratory related is being blamed on the covid 19 to the point where pneumonia and the flu numbers have moved from significant to zero. Look closer at this, b/c something really stinks about this whole virus scare.

    More and more, it looks like there is a major political element to it.

    Reply to @Tim Biddiscombe: This is such a silly argument to make, as if nobody in Canada has ever passed away before of something. 80% of them were in long term care homes (50% of whom typically pass within 6 months of being admitted, remaining had other illnesses), another 1000 were in younger cohorts with other health conditions underlying, and a whopping 500 were younger with no underlying conditions. Those are the stats can figures of your super deadly virus. So yes, it’s been politicized, heavily, you’ve just refused to dig any deeper to analyze the extent to which this rings true. We’re literally just renaming mortalities that were already happening, or very likely to happen already.

    Reply to @Bob Smith: Speaking of facts and figures, there seems to be very little of those being reported by cbc. Where is gov't getting their numbers from, exactly, to make such sweeping changes to our economy?

    When you look at the cdc numbers, there is definite fudging going on. Look at their pneumonia and flu deaths during Feb and March. All of a sudden they go to zero in 2020, where normally there are hundreds. It's like they are calling everything respiratory related a covid 19 death.

    Also, it would be nice to take a closer look at those numbers that are claiming 8000 or 9000 covid 19 deaths in Canada. Wonder where those stats can be found...

    On this point, I agree completely with Mr. Bryant. It is shameful that the NB RCMP refuse to disclose even the number of tickets that they have issued.

    While I'm sure that the need for extra money in local policing is a sheer coincidence here odds are they are leaving out the number of tickets because they really don't want to explain the community biases involved when giving out the tickets. You dare question their authority? You'll be ticketed for something eventually...

    It's like jaywalking...most of the time it's safe and if caught nobody will care, but if you have either a knucklehead who rants to the cop and gives them a hard time, OR you have an cop who just loves messing with certain people (young, poor, "known to police", etc), then that person will be fined out of sheer spite. Fairness has nothing to do with it, thus they are hiding the tickets so they don't have to explain that little fact to anyone: the smaller the community...the larger the biases because they are bored.

    The tickets and what they are for are irrelevant here...it's just the small minded cops doing what they always do, just with a new law for them to "interpret"

    Michael Bryant could be hired to write up a new set of laws,you know the right ones.Possibly we could cross bank robbery off the list as there are repeat offenders,the penalty seems to do little to curb the activity. As I see it the problem is being too lenient when dishing out the fines.
