Former Sen. Brian Joyce fighting to keep his lawyer in federal case



"Joyce’s fight to keep his lawyer has won the support of much of the Boston legal community. In a motion filed earlier this motion, a group including the Massachusetts Bar Association, the Massachusetts Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts and 71 individual attorneys argued that the prosecutors’ request had “far-reaching and troubling Sixth Amendment implications,” potentially opening the door for prosecutors to have defense attorneys removed from a case by claiming that they had previously presented inaccurate information on their client’s behalf. The Boston Bar Association is seeking to file a separate amicus brief."


Methinks all the corrupt FEDS etc should review this old document slowing and Senator Brian Joyce's mindless lawyer buddies should check out page 71 in particular

Former Sen. Brian Joyce fighting to keep his lawyer in federal case






BOSTON — Former state Sen. Brian Joyce returns to federal court Friday to argue that he should be allowed to keep a lawyer who prosecutors have accused of unwittingly helping the Milton Democrat cover up suspected misdeeds.

Prosecutors have argued that attorney Howard M. Cooper, a founding partner at Todd & Weld in Boston, should be stripped from Joyce’s defense team at trial because Cooper had submitted false statements to the state Ethics Commission on Joyce’s behalf, making the attorney a potential witness in Joyce’s case. In response, Joyce has argued that disqualifying Cooper would violate his Sixth Amendment right to choose his legal counsel and force him to find a new attorney following the loss of his job, the end of his practice and “the exhaustion of his resources.”

“Now the government takes aim at the one attorney who has represented him throughout, in whom he reposes the greatest trust and confidence, and ask the Court to require him to start over with new counsel he does not want and cannot afford,” attorneys for Joyce and Cooper said in a motion filed on their behalf. “This would be a cruel, unfair and clearly unconstitutional blow.”

The fight over Joyce’s legal representation comes as the former Milton Democrat faces a 113-count indictment accusing him of turning his Beacon Hill office into a money-making venture in which he traded legislation and political influence for more than $1 million in kickbacks, hundreds of pounds of free coffee and a 2014 Jeep. He was arrested on the charges this past December and released on $250,000 bond.

A little more than a month after Joyce’s arrest, federal prosecutors indicated that they would seek to disqualify Cooper from representing Joyce at trial and could call him to testify about several statements he made to the ethics commission on Joyce’s behalf. Some of those statements had addressed the commission’s questions about whether the senator had received free Dunkin’ Donuts coffee in exchange for pushing favorable legislation, whether he’d filed legislation without disclosing that it would benefit a client, and whether he’d appeared before a state commission while concealing his financial investment in the company he was representing.

Prosecutors have not suggested that Cooper was aware that the statements were false, but said that Joyce had nonetheless “entangled Attorney Cooper in the cover-up.” In a motion filed in late February, prosecutors argued that Joyce had used Cooper’s statements to further his crimes, making communications between the two exempt from attorney-client privilege.

In response, Joyce accused prosecutors of trying to disqualify his attorney by making him into a witness even through they hadn’t shown any need for Cooper’s testimony. Joyce said he would even stipulate that he himself had prepared and reviewed the statements that prosecutors say were false.


Joyce, who is a lawyer, also argued Cooper had only submitted the statements to defend Joyce against allegations of wrongdoing and had not been involved in setting up the corrupt deals Joyce is accused of making. Joyce hired Cooper and his firm, Todd & Weld, in March 2015 after Boston Globe reporters began asking Joyce’s office questions.

Joyce’s fight to keep his lawyer has won the support of much of the Boston legal community. In a motion filed earlier this motion, a group including the Massachusetts Bar Association, the Massachusetts Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts and 71 individual attorneys argued that the prosecutors’ request had “far-reaching and troubling Sixth Amendment implications,” potentially opening the door for prosecutors to have defense attorneys removed from a case by claiming that they had previously presented inaccurate information on their client’s behalf. The Boston Bar Association is seeking to file a separate amicus brief.

A hearing on prosecutors’ motion to disqualify Cooper will be held before Judge Nathaniel M. Gorton on Friday afternoon.

Lawyer ‘entangled’ in Joyce cover up, prosecutors say






BOSTON — Federal prosecutors leading a corruption case against former state Sen. Brian Joyce want the court to disqualify Joyce’s lawyer, claiming the attorney was working to cover his client’s tracks.

In a motion filed Monday, prosecutors said Joyce’s longtime attorney, Howard Cooper, had become “entangled” in the former senator’s cover up by making “several material and false representations” to the state ethics commission and could be called to testify if Joyce’s case goes to trial. Prosecutors are also asking a judge to subpoena Cooper for a closed-door hearing to determine whether some of his communications with Joyce could be exempt from attorney-client privilege because they were used to further the former senator’s alleged crimes.

Joyce, a 55-year-old Milton Democrat who served nearly two decades in office before announcing in 2016 that he would not seek re-election, was arrested late last year on a federal indictment charging him with more than 100 counts of racketeering, fraud, extortion, money laundering and other charges.

Prosecutors say Joyce used his office and influence to collect around $1 million in kickbacks through a variety of corrupt schemes, some of which he later tried to cover up through the work of Cooper and other attorneys in Cooper’s office.

Max Stern, Cooper’s co-counsel in the Joyce case, stressed in a statement Tuesday that Cooper had not been accused of any wrongdoing.

“The government’s baseless effort to disqualify Mr. Cooper strips his client of his right to choose counsel,” Stern said. “This is a wholly unjustifiable threat to the constitutional rights of any defendant.”

Indeed, prosecutors said in the motion filed Monday that they did not yet know whether Cooper “knowingly assisted” Joyce in the cover up. But they did say that documents obtained by investigators suggested that Cooper should have made a “more thorough investigation” into Joyce’s response to questions from state ethics investigators.

Many of those questions had to do with Joyce’s relationship with a company that provides insurance for certain kinds of renewable energy projects. Prosecutors say Joyce was personally invested in the company, having bought more than $471,000 in common stock, and was receiving monthly $5,000 “bribe” payments at the same time he was pushing legislation that would have benefited the company. Joyce’s law office also did legal work for the company.

In response to questions about the relationship, prosecutors say Cooper gave the ethics commission misleading information about how the stock had been purchased and whether Joyce had been paid for representing the company at a meeting with state insurance officials. He also claimed that Joyce did not believe that his legislation would benefit the company, something prosecutors say was “simply untrue.”

Prosecutors say Joyce also used Cooper to mislead the ethics commission about several hundred pounds of coffee Joyce had received from a Dunkin’ Donuts franchise owner, which he gave to others as gifts. Prosecutors say Joyce, who was pushing legislation that would benefit the franchisee, had initially received the coffee for free, but later had Cooper submit a backdated invoice showing he’d paid nearly $1,700 for some of it. Cooper told the ethics commission that Joyce was given the rest in exchange for free legal work.

Joyce was released on $250,000 bond following his arrest in December. His longtime accountant, John Nardozzi, was charged last month with helping Joyce and his family defraud the government out of almost $800,000 in taxes by preparing and filing false returns.

and
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Appellant on the cross-appeal
(and formerly Respondent)
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT BY THE COURT

I.                    Introduction

[1]               On September 16, 2015, David Raymond Amos (Mr. Amos)
filed a 53-page Statement of Claim (the Claim) in Federal Court
against Her Majesty the Queen (the Crown). Mr. Amos claims $11 million
in damages and a public apology from the Prime Minister and Provincial
Premiers for being illegally barred from accessing parliamentary
properties and seeks a declaration from the Minister of Public Safety
that the Canadian Government will no longer allow the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police (RCMP) and Canadian Forces to harass him and his clan
(Claim at para. 96).

[2]               On November 12, 2015 (Docket T-1557-15), by way of a
motion brought by the Crown, a prothonotary of the Federal Court (the
Prothonotary) struck the Claim in its entirety, without leave to
amend, on the basis that it was plain and obvious that the Claim
disclosed no reasonable claim, the Claim was fundamentally vexatious,
and the Claim could not be salvaged by way of further amendment (the
Prothontary’s Order).


[3]               On January 25, 2016 (2016 FC 93), by way of Mr.
Amos’ appeal from the Prothonotary’s Order, a judge of the Federal
Court (the Judge), reviewing the matter de novo, struck all of Mr.
Amos’ claims for relief with the exception of the claim for damages
for being barred by the RCMP from the New Brunswick legislature in
2004 (the Federal Court Judgment).


[4]               Mr. Amos appealed and the Crown cross-appealed the
Federal Court Judgment. Further to the issuance of a Notice of Status
Review, Mr. Amos’ appeal was dismissed for delay on December 19, 2016.
As such, the only matter before this Court is the Crown’s
cross-appeal.


II.                 Preliminary Matter

[5]               Mr. Amos, in his memorandum of fact and law in
relation to the cross-appeal that was filed with this Court on March
6, 2017, indicated that several judges of this Court, including two of
the judges of this panel, had a conflict of interest in this appeal.
This was the first time that he identified the judges whom he believed
had a conflict of interest in a document that was filed with this
Court. In his notice of appeal he had alluded to a conflict with
several judges but did not name those judges.

[6]               Mr. Amos was of the view that he did not have to
identify the judges in any document filed with this Court because he
had identified the judges in various documents that had been filed
with the Federal Court. In his view the Federal Court and the Federal
Court of Appeal are the same court and therefore any document filed in
the Federal Court would be filed in this Court. This view is based on
subsections 5(4) and 5.1(4) of the Federal Courts Act, R.S.C., 1985,
c. F-7:


5(4) Every judge of the Federal Court is, by virtue of his or her
office, a judge of the Federal Court of Appeal and has all the
jurisdiction, power and authority of a judge of the Federal Court of
Appeal.
[…]

5(4) Les juges de la Cour fédérale sont d’office juges de la Cour
d’appel fédérale et ont la même compétence et les mêmes pouvoirs que
les juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale.
[…]
5.1(4) Every judge of the Federal Court of Appeal is, by virtue of
that office, a judge of the Federal Court and has all the
jurisdiction, power and authority of a judge of the Federal Court.

5.1(4) Les juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale sont d’office juges de la
Cour fédérale et ont la même compétence et les mêmes pouvoirs que les
juges de la Cour fédérale.


[7]               However, these subsections only provide that the
judges of the Federal Court are also judges of this Court (and vice
versa). It does not mean that there is only one court. If the Federal
Court and this Court were one Court, there would be no need for this
section.
[8]               Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Courts Act provide that:
3 The division of the Federal Court of Canada called the Federal Court
— Appeal Division is continued under the name “Federal Court of
Appeal” in English and “Cour d’appel fédérale” in French. It is
continued as an additional court of law, equity and admiralty in and
for Canada, for the better administration of the laws of Canada and as
a superior court of record having civil and criminal jurisdiction.

3 La Section d’appel, aussi appelée la Cour d’appel ou la Cour d’appel
fédérale, est maintenue et dénommée « Cour d’appel fédérale » en
français et « Federal Court of Appeal » en anglais. Elle est maintenue
à titre de tribunal additionnel de droit, d’equity et d’amirauté du
Canada, propre à améliorer l’application du droit canadien, et
continue d’être une cour supérieure d’archives ayant compétence en
matière civile et pénale.
4 The division of the Federal Court of Canada called the Federal Court
— Trial Division is continued under the name “Federal Court” in
English and “Cour fédérale” in French. It is continued as an
additional court of law, equity and admiralty in and for Canada, for
the better administration of the laws of Canada and as a superior
court of record having civil and criminal jurisdiction.

4 La section de la Cour fédérale du Canada, appelée la Section de
première instance de la Cour fédérale, est maintenue et dénommée «
Cour fédérale » en français et « Federal Court » en anglais. Elle est
maintenue à titre de tribunal additionnel de droit, d’equity et
d’amirauté du Canada, propre à améliorer l’application du droit
canadien, et continue d’être une cour supérieure d’archives ayant
compétence en matière civile et pénale.


[9]               Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Courts Act create
two separate courts – this Court (section 3) and the Federal Court
(section 4). If, as Mr. Amos suggests, documents filed in the Federal
Court were automatically also filed in this Court, then there would no
need for the parties to prepare and file appeal books as required by
Rules 343 to 345 of the Federal Courts Rules, SOR/98-106 in relation
to any appeal from a decision of the Federal Court. The requirement to
file an appeal book with this Court in relation to an appeal from a
decision of the Federal Court makes it clear that the only documents
that will be before this Court are the documents that are part of that
appeal book.


[10]           Therefore, the memorandum of fact and law filed on
March 6, 2017 is the first document, filed with this Court, in which
Mr. Amos identified the particular judges that he submits have a
conflict in any matter related to him.


[11]           On April 3, 2017, Mr. Amos attempted to bring a motion
before the Federal Court seeking an order “affirming or denying the
conflict of interest he has” with a number of judges of the Federal
Court. A judge of the Federal Court issued a direction noting that if
Mr. Amos was seeking this order in relation to judges of the Federal
Court of Appeal, it was beyond the jurisdiction of the Federal Court.
Mr. Amos raised the Federal Court motion at the hearing of this
cross-appeal. The Federal Court motion is not a motion before this
Court and, as such, the submissions filed before the Federal Court
will not be entertained. As well, since this was a motion brought
before the Federal Court (and not this Court), any documents filed in
relation to that motion are not part of the record of this Court.


[12]           During the hearing of the appeal Mr. Amos alleged that
the third member of this panel also had a conflict of interest and
submitted some documents that, in his view, supported his claim of a
conflict. Mr. Amos, following the hearing of his appeal, was also
afforded the opportunity to provide a brief summary of the conflict
that he was alleging and to file additional documents that, in his
view, supported his allegations. Mr. Amos submitted several pages of
documents in relation to the alleged conflicts. He organized the
documents by submitting a copy of the biography of the particular
judge and then, immediately following that biography, by including
copies of the documents that, in his view, supported his claim that
such judge had a conflict.


[13]           The nature of the alleged conflict of Justice Webb is
that before he was appointed as a Judge of the Tax Court of Canada in
2006, he was a partner with the law firm Patterson Law, and before
that with Patterson Palmer in Nova Scotia. Mr. Amos submitted that he
had a number of disputes with Patterson Palmer and Patterson Law and
therefore Justice Webb has a conflict simply because he was a partner
of these firms. Mr. Amos is not alleging that Justice Webb was
personally involved in or had any knowledge of any matter in which Mr.
Amos was involved with Justice Webb’s former law firm – only that he
was a member of such firm.


[14]           During his oral submissions at the hearing of his
appeal Mr. Amos, in relation to the alleged conflict for Justice Webb,
focused on dealings between himself and a particular lawyer at
Patterson Law. However, none of the documents submitted by Mr. Amos at
the hearing or subsequently related to any dealings with this
particular lawyer nor is it clear when Mr. Amos was dealing with this
lawyer. In particular, it is far from clear whether such dealings were
after the time that Justice Webb was appointed as a Judge of the Tax
Court of Canada over 10 years ago.


[15]           The documents that he submitted in relation to the
alleged conflict for Justice Webb largely relate to dealings between
Byron Prior and the St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador office of
Patterson Palmer, which is not in the same province where Justice Webb
practiced law. The only document that indicates any dealing between
Mr. Amos and Patterson Palmer is a copy of an affidavit of Stephen May
who was a partner in the St. John’s NL office of Patterson Palmer. The
affidavit is dated January 24, 2005 and refers to a number of e-mails
that were sent by Mr. Amos to Stephen May. Mr. Amos also included a
letter that is addressed to four individuals, one of whom is John
Crosbie who was counsel to the St. John’s NL office of Patterson
Palmer. The letter is dated September 2, 2004 and is addressed to
“John Crosbie, c/o Greg G. Byrne, Suite 502, 570 Queen Street,
Fredericton, NB E3B 5E3”. In this letter Mr. Amos alludes to a
possible lawsuit against Patterson Palmer.
[16]           Mr. Amos’ position is that simply because Justice Webb
was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer, he now has a conflict. In Wewaykum
Indian Band v. Her Majesty the Queen, 2003 SCC 45, [2003] 2 S.C.R.
259, the Supreme Court of Canada noted that disqualification of a
judge is to be determined based on whether there is a reasonable
apprehension of bias:
60        In Canadian law, one standard has now emerged as the
criterion for disqualification. The criterion, as expressed by de
Grandpré J. in Committee for Justice and Liberty v. National Energy
Board, …[[1978] 1 S.C.R. 369, 68 D.L.R. (3d) 716], at p. 394, is the
reasonable apprehension of bias:
… the apprehension of bias must be a reasonable one, held by
reasonable and right minded persons, applying themselves to the
question and obtaining thereon the required information. In the words
of the Court of Appeal, that test is "what would an informed person,
viewing the matter realistically and practically -- and having thought
the matter through -- conclude. Would he think that it is more likely
than not that [the decision-maker], whether consciously or
unconsciously, would not decide fairly."

[17]           The issue to be determined is whether an informed
person, viewing the matter realistically and practically, and having
thought the matter through, would conclude that Mr. Amos’ allegations
give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias. As this Court has
previously remarked, “there is a strong presumption that judges will
administer justice impartially” and this presumption will not be
rebutted in the absence of “convincing evidence” of bias (Collins v.
Canada, 2011 FCA 140 at para. 7, [2011] 4 C.T.C. 157 [Collins]. See
also R. v. S. (R.D.), [1997] 3 S.C.R. 484 at para. 32, 151 D.L.R.
(4th) 193).

[18]           The Ontario Court of Appeal in Rando Drugs Ltd. v.
Scott, 2007 ONCA 553, 86 O.R. (3d) 653 (leave to appeal to the Supreme
Court of Canada refused, 32285 (August 1, 2007)), addressed the
particular issue of whether a judge is disqualified from hearing a
case simply because he had been a member of a law firm that was
involved in the litigation that was now before that judge. The Ontario
Court of Appeal determined that the judge was not disqualified if the
judge had no involvement with the person or the matter when he was a
lawyer. The Ontario Court of Appeal also explained that the rules for
determining whether a judge is disqualified are different from the
rules to determine whether a lawyer has a conflict:
27        Thus, disqualification is not the natural corollary to a
finding that a trial judge has had some involvement in a case over
which he or she is now presiding. Where the judge had no involvement,
as here, it cannot be said that the judge is disqualified.


28        The point can rightly be made that had Mr. Patterson been
asked to represent the appellant as counsel before his appointment to
the bench, the conflict rules would likely have prevented him from
taking the case because his firm had formerly represented one of the
defendants in the case. Thus, it is argued how is it that as a trial
judge Patterson J. can hear the case? This issue was considered by the
Court of Appeal (Civil Division) in Locabail (U.K.) Ltd. v. Bayfield
Properties Ltd., [2000] Q.B. 451. The court held, at para. 58, that
there is no inflexible rule governing the disqualification of a judge
and that, "[e]verything depends on the circumstances."


29        It seems to me that what appears at first sight to be an
inconsistency in application of rules can be explained by the
different contexts and in particular, the strong presumption of
judicial impartiality that applies in the context of disqualification
of a judge. There is no such presumption in cases of allegations of
conflict of interest against a lawyer because of a firm's previous
involvement in the case. To the contrary, as explained by Sopinka J.
in MacDonald Estate v. Martin (1990), 77 D.L.R. (4th) 249 (S.C.C.),
for sound policy reasons there is a presumption of a disqualifying
interest that can rarely be overcome. In particular, a conclusory
statement from the lawyer that he or she had no confidential
information about the case will never be sufficient. The case is the
opposite where the allegation of bias is made against a trial judge.
His or her statement that he or she knew nothing about the case and
had no involvement in it will ordinarily be accepted at face value
unless there is good reason to doubt it: see Locabail, at para. 19.


30        That brings me then to consider the particular circumstances
of this case and whether there are serious grounds to find a
disqualifying conflict of interest in this case. In my view, there are
two significant factors that justify the trial judge's decision not to
recuse himself. The first is his statement, which all parties accept,
that he knew nothing of the case when it was in his former firm and
that he had nothing to do with it. The second is the long passage of
time. As was said in Wewaykum, at para. 85:
            To us, one significant factor stands out, and must inform
the perspective of the reasonable person assessing the impact of this
involvement on Binnie J.'s impartiality in the appeals. That factor is
the passage of time. Most arguments for disqualification rest on
circumstances that are either contemporaneous to the decision-making,
or that occurred within a short time prior to the decision-making.
31        There are other factors that inform the issue. The Wilson
Walker firm no longer acted for any of the parties by the time of
trial. More importantly, at the time of the motion, Patterson J. had
been a judge for six years and thus had not had a relationship with
his former firm for a considerable period of time.


32        In my view, a reasonable person, viewing the matter
realistically would conclude that the trial judge could deal fairly
and impartially with this case. I take this view principally because
of the long passage of time and the trial judge's lack of involvement
in or knowledge of the case when the Wilson Walker firm had carriage.
In these circumstances it cannot be reasonably contended that the
trial judge could not remain impartial in the case. The mere fact that
his name appears on the letterhead of some correspondence from over a
decade ago would not lead a reasonable person to believe that he would
either consciously or unconsciously favour his former firm's former
client. It is simply not realistic to think that a judge would throw
off his mantle of impartiality, ignore his oath of office and favour a
client - about whom he knew nothing - of a firm that he left six years
earlier and that no longer acts for the client, in a case involving
events from over a decade ago.
(emphasis added)

[19]           Justice Webb had no involvement with any matter
involving Mr. Amos while he was a member of Patterson Palmer or
Patterson Law, nor does Mr. Amos suggest that he did. Mr. Amos made it
clear during the hearing of this matter that the only reason for the
alleged conflict for Justice Webb was that he was a member of
Patterson Law and Patterson Palmer. This is simply not enough for
Justice Webb to be disqualified. Any involvement of Mr. Amos with
Patterson Law while Justice Webb was a member of that firm would have
had to occur over 10 years ago and even longer for the time when he
was a member of Patterson Palmer. In addition to the lack of any
involvement on his part with any matter or dispute that Mr. Amos had
with Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer (which in and of itself is
sufficient to dispose of this matter), the length of time since
Justice Webb was a member of Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer would
also result in the same finding – that there is no conflict in Justice
Webb hearing this appeal.

[20]           Similarly in R. v. Bagot, 2000 MBCA 30, 145 Man. R.
(2d) 260, the Manitoba Court of Appeal found that there was no
reasonable apprehension of bias when a judge, who had been a member of
the law firm that had been retained by the accused, had no involvement
with the accused while he was a lawyer with that firm.

[21]           In Del Zotto v. Minister of National Revenue, [2000] 4
F.C. 321, 257 N.R. 96, this court did find that there would be a
reasonable apprehension of bias where a judge, who while he was a
lawyer, had recorded time on a matter involving the same person who
was before that judge. However, this case can be distinguished as
Justice Webb did not have any time recorded on any files involving Mr.
Amos while he was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law.

[22]           Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He
stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true copy
of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this CD.
He has also indicated that he has “provided a true copy of the CD
entitled 139 to many American and Canadian law enforcement authorities
and not one of the police forces or officers of the court are willing
to investigate it”. Since he has indicated that this is an “American
police surveillance wiretap”, this is a matter for the American law
enforcement authorities and cannot create, as Mr. Amos suggests, a
conflict of interest for any judge to whom he provides a copy.

[23]           As a result, there is no conflict or reasonable
apprehension of bias for Justice Webb and therefore, no reason for him
to recuse himself.

[24]           Mr. Amos alleged that Justice Near’s past professional
experience with the government created a “quasi-conflict” in deciding
the cross-appeal. Mr. Amos provided no details and Justice Near
confirmed that he had no prior knowledge of the matters alleged in the
Claim. Justice Near sees no reason to recuse himself.

[25]           Insofar as it is possible to glean the basis for Mr.
Amos’ allegations against Justice Gleason, it appears that he alleges
that she is incapable of hearing this appeal because he says he wrote
a letter to Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien in 2004. At that time,
both Justice Gleason and Mr. Mulroney were partners in the law firm
Ogilvy Renault, LLP. The letter in question, which is rude and angry,
begins with “Hey you two Evil Old Smiling Bastards” and “Re: me suing
you and your little dogs too”. There is no indication that the letter
was ever responded to or that a law suit was ever commenced by Mr.
Amos against Mr. Mulroney. In the circumstances, there is no reason
for Justice Gleason to recuse herself as the letter in question does
not give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias.


III.               Issue

[26]           The issue on the cross-appeal is as follows: Did the
Judge err in setting aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the Claim
in its entirety without leave to amend and in determining that Mr.
Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick
legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action?

IV.              Analysis

A.                 Standard of Review

[27]           Following the Judge’s decision to set aside the
Prothonotary’s Order, this Court revisited the standard of review to
be applied to discretionary decisions of prothonotaries and decisions
made by judges on appeals of prothonotaries’ decisions in Hospira
Healthcare Corp. v. Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, 2016 FCA 215,
402 D.L.R. (4th) 497 [Hospira]. In Hospira, a five-member panel of
this Court replaced the Aqua-Gem standard of review with that
articulated in Housen v. Nikolaisen, 2002 SCC 33, [2002] 2 S.C.R. 235
[Housen]. As a result, it is no longer appropriate for the Federal
Court to conduct a de novo review of a discretionary order made by a
prothonotary in regard to questions vital to the final issue of the
case. Rather, a Federal Court judge can only intervene on appeal if
the prothonotary made an error of law or a palpable and overriding
error in determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and
law (Hospira at para. 79). Further, this Court can only interfere with
a Federal Court judge’s review of a prothonotary’s discretionary order
if the judge made an error of law or palpable and overriding error in
determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and law
(Hospira at paras. 82-83).

[28]           In the case at bar, the Judge substituted his own
assessment of Mr. Amos’ Claim for that of the Prothonotary. This Court
must look to the Prothonotary’s Order to determine whether the Judge
erred in law or made a palpable and overriding error in choosing to
interfere.


B.                 Did the Judge err in interfering with the
Prothonotary’s Order?

[29]           The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following
paragraphs from the Crown’s submissions as the basis for striking the
Claim in its entirety without leave to amend:

17.       Within the 96 paragraph Statement of Claim, the Plaintiff
addresses his complaint in paragraphs 14-24, inclusive. All but four
of those paragraphs are dedicated to an incident that occurred in 2006
in and around the legislature in New Brunswick. The jurisdiction of
the Federal Court does not extend to Her Majesty the Queen in right of
the Provinces. In any event, the Plaintiff hasn’t named the Province
or provincial actors as parties to this action. The incident alleged
does not give rise to a justiciable cause of action in this Court.
(…)


21.       The few paragraphs that directly address the Defendant
provide no details as to the individuals involved or the location of
the alleged incidents or other details sufficient to allow the
Defendant to respond. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to
determine the causes of action the Plaintiff is attempting to advance.
A generous reading of the Statement of Claim allows the Defendant to
only speculate as to the true and/or intended cause of action. At
best, the Plaintiff’s action may possibly be summarized as: he
suspects he is barred from the House of Commons.
[footnotes omitted].


[30]           The Judge determined that he could not strike the Claim
on the same jurisdictional basis as the Prothonotary. The Judge noted
that the Federal Court has jurisdiction over claims based on the
liability of Federal Crown servants like the RCMP and that the actors
who barred Mr. Amos from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004
included the RCMP (Federal Court Judgment at para. 23). In considering
the viability of these allegations de novo, the Judge identified
paragraph 14 of the Claim as containing “some precision” as it
identifies the date of the event and a RCMP officer acting as
Aide-de-Camp to the Lieutenant Governor (Federal Court Judgment at
para. 27).


[31]           The Judge noted that the 2004 event could support a
cause of action in the tort of misfeasance in public office and
identified the elements of the tort as excerpted from Meigs v. Canada,
2013 FC 389, 431 F.T.R. 111:


[13]      As in both the cases of Odhavji Estate v Woodhouse, 2003 SCC
69 [Odhavji] and Lewis v Canada, 2012 FC 1514 [Lewis], I must
determine whether the plaintiffs’ statement of claim pleads each
element of the alleged tort of misfeasance in public office:

a) The public officer must have engaged in deliberate and unlawful
conduct in his or her capacity as public officer;

b) The public officer must have been aware both that his or her
conduct was unlawful and that it was likely to harm the plaintiff; and

c) There must be an element of bad faith or dishonesty by the public
officer and knowledge of harm alone is insufficient to conclude that a
public officer acted in bad faith or dishonestly.
Odhavji, above, at paras 23, 24 and 28
(Federal Court Judgment at para. 28).

[32]           The Judge determined that Mr. Amos disclosed sufficient
material facts to meet the elements of the tort of misfeasance in
public office because the actors, who barred him from the New
Brunswick legislature in 2004, including the RCMP, did so for
“political reasons” (Federal Court Judgment at para. 29).

[33]           This Court’s discussion of the sufficiency of pleadings
in Merchant Law Group v. Canada (Revenue Agency), 2010 FCA 184, 321
D.L.R (4th) 301 is particularly apt:

…When pleading bad faith or abuse of power, it is not enough to
assert, baldly, conclusory phrases such as “deliberately or
negligently,” “callous disregard,” or “by fraud and theft did steal”.
“The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called
upon to pronounce is not an allegation of material fact”. Making bald,
conclusory allegations without any evidentiary foundation is an abuse
of process…

To this, I would add that the tort of misfeasance in public office
requires a particular state of mind of a public officer in carrying
out the impunged action, i.e., deliberate conduct which the public
officer knows to be inconsistent with the obligations of his or her
office. For this tort, particularization of the allegations is
mandatory. Rule 181 specifically requires particularization of
allegations of “breach of trust,” “wilful default,” “state of mind of
a person,” “malice” or “fraudulent intention.”
(at paras. 34-35, citations omitted).

[34]           Applying the Housen standard of review to the
Prothonotary’s Order, we are of the view that the Judge interfered
absent a legal or palpable and overriding error.

[35]           The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim
disclosed no reasonable claim and was fundamentally vexatious on the
basis of jurisdictional concerns and the absence of material facts to
ground a cause of action. Paragraph 14 of the Claim, which addresses
the 2004 event, pleads no material facts as to how the RCMP officer
engaged in deliberate and unlawful conduct, knew that his or her
conduct was unlawful and likely to harm Mr. Amos, and acted in bad
faith. While the Claim alleges elsewhere that Mr. Amos was barred from
the New Brunswick legislature for political and/or malicious reasons,
these allegations are not particularized and are directed against
non-federal actors, such as the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative
Assembly of New Brunswick and the Fredericton Police Force. As such,
the Judge erred in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the RCMP
barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable of
supporting a cause of action.

[36]           In our view, the Claim is made up entirely of bare
allegations, devoid of any detail, such that it discloses no
reasonable cause of action within the jurisdiction of the Federal
Courts. Therefore, the Judge erred in interfering to set aside the
Prothonotary’s Order striking the claim in its entirety. Further, we
find that the Prothonotary made no error in denying leave to amend.
The deficiencies in Mr. Amos’ pleadings are so extensive such that
amendment could not cure them (see Collins at para. 26).

V.                 Conclusion
[37]           For the foregoing reasons, we would allow the Crown’s
cross-appeal, with costs, setting aside the Federal Court Judgment,
dated January 25, 2016 and restoring the Prothonotary’s Order, dated
November 12, 2015, which struck Mr. Amos’ Claim in its entirety
without leave to amend.

RCMP faces $1.1B lawsuit over bullying, harassment claims dating back decades

Potential class action could represent thousands of officers, civilian employees, students and volunteers

Canada's national police force is facing a mammoth $1.1 billion lawsuit — believed to be the biggest in the force's history — over bullying and harassment claims that could eventually represent thousands of male and female RCMP officers, civilian staff, and even volunteers dating back decades.

Two veteran male RCMP officers are the lead plaintiffs. They recount workplace horror stories and health problems they claim stem from pervasive and "systematic bullying, intimidation and harassment" within the force, according to the 44-page suit filed Friday in federal court.

In an exclusive interview, Staff Sgt. Geoffrey Greenwood recalled the fallout he says he endured after reporting allegations of bribery and corruption against fellow drug officers in 2008.

"It rocked me to my core," said Greenwood, who is now with the RCMP detachment in Red Deer, Alta.

"I was kind of demonized and I was the one that was left to be the problem, and really all I did was my job."
This lawsuit is expected to eclipse previous harassment cases against the RCMP, including the $100 million settlement in 2016 for the more than 3,100 female officers who claim discrimination and sexual harassment on the job.

The new lawsuit seeks compensation for potentially tens of thousands of people, on a force that currently has 29,751 employees, not to mention thousands more dating back decades.

If the court certifies it as a class action, it could cover anyone who has ever worked for the RCMP and suffered what former commissioner Bob Paulson acknowledged in 2016 was a "culture of bullying and intimidation and general harassment."

None of the allegations in the lawsuit has been tested in court. The federal court has only just received the claim and the government and RCMP have not yet filed a response.

Officer claims he was 'villainized'


Sgt. Greenwood's troubles began in 2007 when he was based in Yellowknife, N.W.T. He was leading a major drug and money-laundering investigation across the North.

According to the lawsuit, Greenwood was assigned to look into allegations from a woman arrested for money-laundering who alleged some RCMP officers were on the take.

She claimed one officer was paid $60,000 "in exchange for information about the identity of RCMP undercover agents, surveillances, and upcoming drug raids," the lawsuit reads.
Your whole character is torn apart and stripped down and you're villainized.- RCMP Staff Sgt. Geoffrey Greenwood
Greenwood also listened to audio surveillance tapes implicating several more officers.

Bolstered by a second team of RCMP investigators who believed the woman, Greenwood reported it all to his bosses.

According to the lawsuit, Greenwood quickly found himself on the receiving end of reprisals and was ordered to drop his investigation.

"That manager wanted to bury that issue. And for me, that is not in my fibre," Greenwood said in an interview.  "I can't cover up something like that."

The lawsuit alleges he faced trumped-up internal charges that were an "egregious form of bullying" intended to punish him.

He was eventually transferred out of the North in 2010 after allegedly being ostracized and ridiculed by his bosses.

"I ended up kind of leaving a shell of a person," Greenwood said  "Your whole character is torn apart and stripped down and you're villainized."

'Blacklisted for speaking out'


Sgt. Todd Gray, the lawsuit's second lead plaintiff, had what appeared to be the postcard-perfect job back in the mid-1990s as a member of the RCMP Musical Ride.

"This is the image of the RCMP. That's just the show," Gray said in an interview.  "But the struggles that go on with travelling, and favouritism, and bullying, and being blacklisted for speaking out ... those are the things that don't come out."

Gray alleges in this lawsuit that on a number of occasions, he was forced to ride in the horse trailer on long overnight trips, resting on a bunk next to the horses without heat, electricity or access to a washroom.
Gray alleges that in 1998, during his final year on the RCMP Musical Ride, after injuring his back, he was ordered to continue riding and was intentionally assigned a horse known to buck and kick. In one practice the horse reared up, toppled over and landed on his right leg, injuring him, the lawsuit alleges.
In the early 2000s, Gray was assigned to a small detachment in Nunavut.

Gray claims in the court pleading that one of his superiors "frequently abused the local First Nations populations."

"[The commander] ending up kicking Mr. Gray in the face when he tried to kick a 16 year old First Nations boy in the ribs," the lawsuit reads.
Gray says he reported the incident to more senior managers. He alleges that he soon found himself ostracized, denied promotion, and given a performance review from the detachment commander that concluded he should be fired.

Now 53 and a sergeant in Airdrie, Alta., Gray says he's considering retirement given the 'cumulative' psychological toll.

"No matter where I go, no matter what province I was in, what division I was in, the same issues are always there," he said in an interview. "It doesn't change across the country."

Nowhere for RCMP staff to complain


In 2016, facing allegations of sexual harassment involving hundreds of female officers, then RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson testified before parliament admitting the force had profound problems.

"It can't be understood as a sexual harassment problem," Paulson told the Commons Public Safety committee. "Sexual harassment has no place in the organization — don't get me wrong — but it's the culture of bullying, intimidation, and general harassment that I think needs everybody's focus and attention."
The new $1.1 billion dollar lawsuit seizes on Paulson's statement and cites a long list of formal reports and studies that also conclude the RCMP suffers from widespread workplace harassment.

A key argument in the claim is that until 2015, RCMP employees were precluded from forming a union and so had nowhere to complain other than to their direct bosses.

Then RCMP commissioner Bob Paulson speaks at a news conference in Ottawa on Oct. 6, 2016, after apologizing to hundreds of current and former female officers and employees for alleged incidents of bullying, discrimination and harassment. (Adrian Wyld/CP)
 
 
"Complaints of any kind were treated as an affront to the chain of command in the paramilitary structure of the RCMP, leading to direct and indirect retaliatory conduct," the lawsuit alleges.

The suit seeks $1 billion in damages for lost of income due to lost promotions, early retirements and losses to pensions.  It also seeks $100 million in punitive damages, and an additional $30 million to compensate family members of RCMP employees adversely affected.

First, as Canadians we pay way to much in taxes, we fund way to many social programs and support special groups. our government waste to much and what do we get in return. the majority of those that owe are tired of paying out and not seeing a return. I say that government is to big, we should only pay for things like health, education, defense, policing. drop the tax rates and guess what, more people would then spend thus creating jobs. but when the government continue to waste, give to special groups and gives to other countries. well then we are sick of it and don't wish to pay

"The amount of tax that Canadians admit to owing Ottawa but haven't paid rose to a record $43.8 billion this year, despite a Liberal government promise to "stabilize" that sum".
Add this to the list of CRA horror stories; the CRA is in desperate need of a complete overhaul and house cleaning, top to bottom/inside out.

"A $351 million tax-collection program started in 2016 under National Revenue Minister Diane Lebouthillier has not stopped increases in the amount of uncollected taxes".
As part of that overhaul/house cleaning, Lebouthillier needs to be fired and replaced with someone capable of doing the job.

After watching your tax dollars being spent on a vacation to a billionaire's island or $17K for the PM's chef friend to go to India or simply $7,500 on a swing set for the PM's kids it makes many Canadians think why should they be paying their taxes if the leader has no respect for it.

Respect for tax dollars starts at the top. $7500 maybe a drop in the bucket but to most Canadian families that's a hell of a lot of money.

@Michael Murphy "When did Harper and Mulroney respect our tax dollars?"

Methinks you are too funny. You fail when you make fun of my comments because you have bragged that I have you mistaken for another dude named Murphy. That may be true but not long ago I recall a liberal Attorney General with the same name as you taking a long walk in the snow just like his hero Trudeau The Elder then suddenly quitting when his party needed him the most. Then a few years later he wanted to be its leader and was surprised that he lost to a newbie lawyer named Gallant. At least you cannot deny that these are CBC stories the liberal lawyer Michael Murphy N'esy Pas?

"There are no legal issues of any nature whatsoever so that should be clear."

(Yea Right Anyone can Google 3 names Michael Murphy David Amos RCMP)

The story goes on

"Former environment minister T.J. Burke stepped down on July 24, only a month after being moved from the justice portfolio. Burke said he was going to return to practising law, which he had to give up when he accepted a cabinet position in 2006. Murphy's exit from the cabinet has opened the door for Moncton East MLA Chris Collins, who has been promoted from the backbench to become the new minister of local government. Murphy's cabinet responsibilities are being split up among three cabinet ministers. Social Development Minister Kelly Lamrock is taking over as the province's attorney general."

A reporter writing this story would ask the obvious question - how is it possible that "average" Canadians owe $44 billion in unpaid taxes? The answer is obvious, as a number of commenters have observed - large,well connected debtors are being given preferential treatment.

I wholeheartedly agree. Methinks the CRA can simply put a lock on the little guy's bank account and scoop his money They have a much harder time with wealthy dudes who can afford powerful lawyers N'esy Pas?

Mr. David Raymond Amos
motomaniac333@gmail.com


Dear Mr. Amos:

Thank you for your various correspondence about abusive tax schemes,
and for your understanding regarding the delay of this response.

This is an opportunity for me to address your concerns about the way
the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) deals with aggressive tax planning,
tax avoidance, and tax evasion by targeting individuals and groups
that promote schemes intended to avoid payment of tax. It is also an
opportunity for me to present the Government of Canada’s main
strategies for ensuring fairness for all taxpayers.

The CRA’s mission is to preserve the integrity of Canada’s tax system,
and it is taking concrete and effective action to deal with abusive
tax schemes. Through federal budget funding in 2016 and 2017, the
government has committed close to $1 billion in cracking down on tax
evasion and combatting tax avoidance at home and through the use of
offshore transactions. This additional funding is expected to generate
federal revenues of $2.6 billion over five years for Budget 2016, and
$2.5 billion over five years for Budget 2017.

More precisely, the CRA is cracking down on tax cheats by hiring more
auditors, maintaining its underground economy specialist teams,
increasing coverage of aggressive goods and service tax/harmonized
sales tax planning, increasing coverage of multinational corporations
and wealthy individuals, and taking targeted actions aimed at
promoters of abusive tax schemes.

On the offshore front, the CRA continues to develop tools to improve
its focus on high‑risk taxpayers. It is also considering changes to
its Voluntary Disclosures Program following the first set of program
recommendations received from an independent Offshore Compliance
Advisory Committee. In addition, the CRA is leading international
projects to address the base erosion and profit shifting initiative of
the G20 and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development, and is collaborating with treaty partners to address the
Panama Papers leaks.

These actions are evidence of the government’s commitment to
protecting tax fairness. The CRA has strengthened its intelligence and
technical capacities for the early detection of abusive tax
arrangements and deterrence of those who participate in them. To
ensure compliance, it has increased the number of actions aimed at
promoters who use illegal schemes. These measures include increased
audits of such promoters, improved information gathering, criminal
investigations where warranted, and better communication with
taxpayers.

To deter potential taxpayer involvement in these schemes, the CRA is
increasing notifications and warnings through its communications
products. It also seeks partnerships with tax preparers, accountants,
and community groups so that they can become informed observers who
can educate their clients.

The CRA will assess penalties against promoters and other
representatives who make false statements involving illegal tax
schemes. The promotion of tax schemes to defraud the government can
lead to criminal investigations, fingerprinting, criminal prosecution,
court fines, and jail time.

Between April 1, 2011, and March 31, 2016, the CRA’s criminal
investigations resulted in the conviction of 42 Canadian taxpayers for
tax evasion with links to money and assets held offshore. In total,
the $34 million in evaded taxes resulted in court fines of $12 million
and 734 months of jail time.

When deciding to pursue compliance actions through the courts, the CRA
consults the Department of Justice Canada to choose an appropriate
solution. Complex tax-related litigation is costly and time consuming,
and the outcome may be unsuccessful. All options to recover amounts
owed are considered.

More specifically, in relation to the KPMG Isle of Man tax avoidance
scheme, publicly available court records show that it is through the
CRA’s efforts that the scheme was discovered. The CRA identified many
of the participants and continues to actively pursue the matter. The
CRA has also identified at least 10 additional tax structures on the
Isle of Man, and is auditing taxpayers in relation to these
structures.

To ensure tax fairness, the CRA commissioned an independent review in
March 2016 to determine if it had acted appropriately concerning KPMG
and its clients. In her review, Ms. Kimberley Brooks, Associate
Professor and former Dean of the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie
University, examined the CRA’s operational processes and decisions in
relation to the KPMG offshore tax structure and its efforts to obtain
the names of all taxpayers participating in the scheme. Following this
review, the report, released on May 5, 2016, concluded that the CRA
had acted appropriately in its management of the KPMG Isle of Man
file. The report found that the series of compliance measures the CRA
took were in accordance with its policies and procedures. It was
concluded that the procedural actions taken on the KPMG file were
appropriate given the facts of this particular case and were
consistent with the treatment of taxpayers in similar situations. The
report concluded that actions by CRA employees were in accordance with
the CRA’s Code of Integrity and Professional Conduct. There was no
evidence of inappropriate interaction between KPMG and the CRA
employees involved in the case.

Under the CRA’s Code of Integrity and Professional Conduct, all CRA
employees are responsible for real, apparent, or potential conflicts
of interests between their current duties and any subsequent
employment outside of the CRA or the Public Service of Canada.
Consequences and corrective measures play an important role in
protecting the CRA’s integrity.

The CRA takes misconduct very seriously. The consequences of
misconduct depend on the gravity of the incident and its repercussions
on trust both within and outside of the CRA. Misconduct can result in
disciplinary measures up to dismissal.

All forms of tax evasion are illegal. The CRA manages the Informant
Leads Program, which handles leads received from the public regarding
cases of tax evasion across the country. This program, which
coordinates all the leads the CRA receives from informants, determines
whether there has been any non-compliance with tax law and ensures
that the information is examined and conveyed, if applicable, so that
compliance measures are taken. This program does not offer any reward
for tips received.

The new Offshore Tax Informant Program (OTIP) has also been put in
place. The OTIP offers financial compensation to individuals who
provide information related to major cases of offshore tax evasion
that lead to the collection of tax owing. As of December 31, 2016, the
OTIP had received 963 calls and 407 written submissions from possible
informants. Over 218 taxpayers are currently under audit based on
information the CRA received through the OTIP.

With a focus on the highest-risk sectors nationally and
internationally and an increased ability to gather information, the
CRA has the means to target taxpayers who try to hide their income.
For example, since January 2015, the CRA has been collecting
information on all international electronic funds transfers (EFTs) of
$10,000 or more ending or originating in Canada. It is also adopting a
proactive approach by focusing each year on four jurisdictions that
raise suspicion. For the Isle of Man, the CRA audited 3,000 EFTs
totalling $860 million over 12 months and involving approximately 800
taxpayers. Based on these audits, the CRA communicated with
approximately 350 individuals and 400 corporations and performed 60
audits.

In January 2017, I reaffirmed Canada’s important role as a leader for
tax authorities around the world in detecting the structures used for
aggressive tax planning and tax evasion. This is why Canada works
daily with the Joint International Tax Shelter Information Centre
(JITSIC), a network of tax administrations in over 35 countries. The
CRA participates in two expert groups within the JITSIC and leads the
working group on intermediaries and proponents. This ongoing
collaboration is a key component of the CRA’s work to develop strong
relationships with the international community, which will help it
refine the world-class tax system that benefits all Canadians.

The CRA is increasing its efforts and is seeing early signs of
success. Last year, the CRA recovered just under $13 billion as a
result of its audit activities on the domestic and offshore fronts.
Two-thirds of these recoveries are the result of its audit efforts
relating to large businesses and multinational companies.

But there is still much to do, and additional improvements and
investments are underway.

Tax cheats are having a harder and harder time hiding. Taxpayers who
choose to promote or participate in malicious and illegal tax
strategies must face the consequences of their actions. Canadians
expect nothing less. I invite you to read my most recent statement on
this matter at canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/news/2017/03/
statement_from_thehonourabledianelebouthillierministerofnational.

Thank you for taking the time to write. I hope the information I have
provided is helpful.

Sincerely,

The Honourable Diane Lebouthillier
Minister of National Revenue

RCMP faces $1.1B lawsuit over bullying, harassment claims dating back decades
Potential class action could represent thousands of officers, civilian
employees, students and volunteers
Rachel Houlihan, Dave Seglins · CBC News · Posted: Jun 25, 2018 4:00 AM ET

forced to ride in the horse trailer as a member of the RCMP Musical
Ride in the late 1990s. (Supplied by Kim, Spencer, McPhee Barristers)

Canada's national police force is facing a mammoth $1.1 billion
lawsuit — believed to be the biggest in the force's history — over
bullying and harassment claims that could eventually represent
thousands of male and female RCMP officers, civilian staff, and even
volunteers dating back decades.

Two veteran male RCMP officers are the lead plaintiffs. They recount
workplace horror stories and health problems they claim stem from
pervasive and "systematic bullying, intimidation and harassment"
within the force, according to the 44-page suit filed Friday in federal court.

In an exclusive interview, Staff Sgt. Geoffrey Greenwood recalled the
fallout he says he endured after reporting allegations of bribery and
corruption against fellow drug officers in 2008.

"It rocked me to my core," said Greenwood, who is now with the RCMP
detachment in Red Deer, Alta.

"I was kind of demonized and I was the one that was left to be the
problem, and really all I did was my job."

    RCMP could pay up to $100M to female employees who were sexually
harassed, abused

    'Our collective shame': Trudeau delivers historic apology to LGBT Canadians

This lawsuit is expected to eclipse previous harassment cases against
the RCMP, including the $100 million settlement in 2016 for the more
than 3,100 female officers who claim discrimination and sexual harassment on 
the job.

The new lawsuit seeks compensation for potentially tens of thousands
of people, on a force that currently has 29,751 employees, not to
mention thousands more dating back decades.

If the court certifies it as a class action, it could cover anyone who
has ever worked for the RCMP and suffered what former commissioner Bob
Paulson acknowledged in 2016 was a "culture of bullying and
intimidation and general harassment."

None of the allegations in the lawsuit has been tested in court. The
federal court has only just received the claim and the government and
RCMP have not yet filed a response.

Officer claims he was 'villainized'

Sgt. Greenwood's troubles began in 2007 when he was based in
Yellowknife, N.W.T. He was leading a major drug and money-laundering
investigation across the North.

According to the lawsuit, Greenwood was assigned to look into
allegations from a woman arrested for money-laundering who alleged
some RCMP officers were on the take.

She claimed one officer was paid $60,000 "in exchange for information
about the identity of RCMP undercover agents, surveillances, and
upcoming drug raids," the lawsuit reads.

    Your whole character is torn apart and stripped down and you're villainized.
    - RCMP Staff Sgt. Geoffrey Greenwood

Greenwood also listened to audio surveillance tapes implicating
several more officers.

Bolstered by a second team of RCMP investigators who believed the
woman, Greenwood reported it all to his bosses.

According to the lawsuit, Greenwood quickly found himself on the
receiving end of reprisals and was ordered to drop his investigation.

"That manager wanted to bury that issue. And for me, that is not in my
fibre," Greenwood said in an interview.  "I can't cover up something
like that."

RCMP Staff Sgt. Geoffrey Greenwood claims he suffered PTSD as a result
of reprisals and harassment on the job after investigating allegations
of police corruption. (Supplied by Kim, Spencer, McPhee Barristers)

The lawsuit alleges he faced trumped-up internal charges that were an
"egregious form of bullying" intended to punish him.

He was eventually transferred out of the North in 2010 after allegedly
being ostracized and ridiculed by his bosses.

"I ended up kind of leaving a shell of a person," Greenwood said
"Your whole character is torn apart and stripped down and you're
villainized."

'Blacklisted for speaking out'

Sgt. Todd Gray, the lawsuit's second lead plaintiff, had what appeared
to be the postcard-perfect job back in the mid-1990s as a member of
the RCMP Musical Ride.

"This is the image of the RCMP. That's just the show," Gray said in an
interview.  "But the struggles that go on with travelling, and
favouritism, and bullying, and being blacklisted for speaking out ...
those are the things that don't come out."

Gray alleges in this lawsuit that on a number of occasions, he was
forced to ride in the horse trailer on long overnight trips, resting
on a bunk next to the horses without heat, electricity or access to a
washroom.

    Culture of bullying at root of RCMP harassment allegations,
commissioner says

Gray alleges that in 1998, during his final year on the RCMP Musical
Ride, after injuring his back, he was ordered to continue riding and
was intentionally assigned a horse known to buck and kick. In one
practice the horse reared up, toppled over and landed on his right
leg, injuring him, the lawsuit alleges.

In the early 2000s, Gray was assigned to a small detachment in Nunavut.

Gray claims in the court pleading that one of his superiors
"frequently abused the local First Nations populations."

"[The commander] ending up kicking Mr. Gray in the face when he tried
to kick a 16 year old First Nations boy in the ribs," the lawsuit
reads.

    RCMP's recent history includes hundreds of sexual harassment,
abuse and bullying accusations

Gray says he reported the incident to more senior managers. He alleges
that he soon found himself ostracized, denied promotion, and given a
performance review from the detachment commander that concluded he
should be fired.

Now 53 and a sergeant in Airdrie, Alta., Gray says he's considering
retirement given the 'cumulative' psychological toll.

"No matter where I go, no matter what province I was in, what division
I was in, the same issues are always there," he said in an interview.
"It doesn't change across the country."
Nowhere for RCMP staff to complain

In 2016, facing allegations of sexual harassment involving hundreds of
female officers, then RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson testified before
parliament admitting the force had profound problems.

"It can't be understood as a sexual harassment problem," Paulson told
the Commons Public Safety committee. "Sexual harassment has no place
in the organization — don't get me wrong — but it's the culture of
bullying, intimidation, and general harassment that I think needs
everybody's focus and attention."

    RCMP apology, compensation fund comes without harassers held accountable

The new $1.1 billion dollar lawsuit seizes on Paulson's statement and
cites a long list of formal reports and studies that also conclude the
RCMP suffers from widespread workplace harassment.

A key argument in the claim is that until 2015, RCMP employees were
precluded from forming a union and so had nowhere to complain other
than to their direct bosses.

Ottawa on Oct. 6, 2016, after apologizing to hundreds of current and
former female officers and employees for alleged incidents of
bullying, discrimination and harassment. (Adrian Wyld/CP)

"Complaints of any kind were treated as an affront to the chain of
command in the paramilitary structure of the RCMP, leading to direct
and indirect retaliatory conduct," the lawsuit alleges.

The suit seeks $1 billion in damages for lost of income due to lost
promotions, early retirements and losses to pensions.  It also seeks
$100 million in punitive damages, and an additional $30 million to
compensate family members of RCMP employees adversely affected.

Canada Revenue Agency falling behind as uncollected taxes owed rise to $44 billion

The amount of tax that Canadians admit to owing Ottawa but haven't paid rose to a record $43.8 billion this year, despite a Liberal government promise to "stabilize" that sum.

And an internal Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) projection obtained by CBC News says the amount of unpaid tax owed is set to hit more than $47 billion by 2020.

The steady increase in the tax debt — up by about $2 billion annually since the Liberals came to power — comes despite a major investment in the 2016 federal budget to wrestle down fast-rising levels of uncollected tax debt.

The rise in the tax debt level over the last decade or so appears to be linked to major staff reductions at CRA under the former Conservative government's deficit-cutting program.

The 2016 Liberal budget gave the CRA $351.6 million over five years "to improve its ability to collect outstanding tax debts."

And the agency says it's on track to meet its target of collecting $7.4 billion in additional tax debt over those five years.

But that effort hasn't stopped the total from growing — by 5.6 per cent in 2017-2018 alone, far faster than inflation or the economy itself.

Undisputed amounts


The agency currently does not collect about $8.40 for every $100 in taxes that are due.

'Tax debt' refers to undisputed amounts of income tax, GST and other taxes owed by Canadians – as well as penalties and interest – but does not include taxes due that Canadians have challenged and not paid.

Unlike the fast-rising tax debt, that 'disputed' tax sum has stabilized at about $14 billion over the last three years.

Tax debt is also distinct from undeclared taxes owed in the underground economy, which Statistics Canada says hid some $45.6 billion in economic activity in 2013. It is also separate from the unknown amount of tax evaded through the use of offshore tax havens and other tax dodges — something which other CRA programs are pursuing.
Intake has been higher than our capacity to assign accounts to officers.- October 2017 internal CRA document indicating a lack of staff to collect tax debts
Indeed, the agency says its success in rooting out some underground activity and tax-avoidance has contributed in part to the growth in the tax debt.

But an internal document suggests the CRA still lacks the staff to keep up with the growth in the uncollected tax amount.

"During the first four months of the 2017/18 [fiscal year], intake has been higher than our capacity to assign accounts to officers," said an October 2017 update on 'Managing the Tax Debt.'

"The number of unassigned accounts increased YOY [year over year] (July) by approximately 23%"— or about 350,000 unassigned accounts.

CBC News obtained the update through the Access to Information Act.

Half owed by individuals


Close to half of the unpaid tax debt is owed by individual Canadians. Corporations and businesses account for the remainder, which includes unpaid GST and payroll deductions not turned over to Ottawa.

The internal document indicates that more Canadians are filing their income tax returns each year without paying the tax they owe. Last year, there was a 10 per cent rise in these so-called 'debit returns' — up by about 600,000 returns — which added $1.2 billion to the tax debt total.

Jeremy Ghio, press secretary for National Revenue Minister Diane Lebouthillier, said the agency "continues to develop and implement collection strategies to improve its capacity to manage tax debt and avoid new debt from accumulating."

Ghio noted that, until Budget 2016, the tax debt had grown by an average of 7.8 per cent annually. CRA's new resources helped reduce the growth rate to 5.6 per cent in 2017-2018, he said.

A CRA watchdog group said the rapid rise in the tax debt over the last decade or so is a direct result of public service downsizing – a problem the Liberals have still not resolved.

"It coincides directly with dramatic cuts to staff and office closures," Diana Gibson of Canadians For Tax Fairness said in an interview from Victoria.

"We do not have adequate staffing levels to actually tackle the debt."

I share the professor’s concerns about the RCMP. I have watched and tracked RCMP misdeeds over the decades. The force is well beyond the point of repair and should be entirely disbanded.

Having said this, it seems the professor has forgotten that the RCMP directly and recklessly attacked the reputation of Minister Goodale, making totally unsubstantiated allegations regarding the leak of budget information mere days before the 2006 federal election? If Goodale moved to censure the RCMP, the ugly deep state within that diseased organization would probably accuse him of bias.

Ralph Goodale is an honest and loyal public servant and he is caught between a rock and a hard place here. Perhaps the right thing for Mr Trudeau to do is to move another person into Goodale’s position and take an axe to the RCMP. Tear it down completely and for God’s sake don’t hire back the existing incompetent and politically corrupt management

$1.1Billion? That's not a ridiculous amount to ask from Canadian taxpayers, now is it? So, what is the plan, to financially cripple the RCMP? Will that make things all better? I wonder who came up with that number, the clients, or the lawyers that will cash in huge with their cut of whatever settlement comes along? And, exactly how would any settlement be dispersed amongst the thousands of possible claimants? Who gets the most, the two that filed, and how much more than others? With this lawsuit, and the many, many others that have been filed, some still pending, some settled, the work environment within the RCMP must be toxic, so, there exists the possibility that the RCMP should disband altogether and just be done with.I spent 11 years in the military and was yelled at by instructors during training and a few other times by senior NCO's and a few officers, can I sue for a billion too, then just wait for the cheque to arrive? This is getting ridiculous and is nothing but bill for the taxpayers to pay at the end. It's like the hundreds of native bands that have sued the government(Taxpayers that actually pay taxes footing the bill), or are currently, or will soon because there seems to be a new one filed daily, all asking for billions.

Furthermore I would lay odds the cops would start behaving themselves if and when they were compelled to pay for their own wrongs N'esy Pas?

If there is one thing that the Liberals have a winning record on...it's failing to make the difficult decisions or take the difficult actions....Our PM (and his team) are lightweights, they focus on the easy, and those things that make good "sound bites" while ignoring the truly difficult decisions that need to be made. Shame.

@Paul Jones Pretty good synopsis.

David Amos 
 @Joseph Mediano "Unfortunately Canadian voters don't seem to like the tough decisions either so weak governments keep getting elected"

Methinks I should chime in and strongly disagree I believe Canadian voters are far more clued in than you think and the last election proved it in spades to me. Trudeau The Younger is the Prime Minister today because Harper and Mulcair lost. It is just that simple to me.

In my humble opinion both dudes had wrong answers to the tough decisions that obviously did not suit the majority of the voters Hence Trudeau the Yonger was the onlu alternative. Trudeau's puppet masters knew thye had to do was keep him out of hot water prance in gay pride parades, take selfies with the lacdies, promise such things a legalizing dope and no more first past the post elections to gather up the young voters who don't usually vote and hope for the best.

History shows that Trudeau was in like like Flynn.because mindless Muclair who started out first in the polls screwed up bigtime by not keeping his yap shut on certain issues. However much to Harper's chagrin the NDP sunk so low in the public's opinion that he could not split the left vote like he did in the election of the 41st Parliament. Hence "peoplekind" won the day. Whereas it was 2015 we were saddled with Cabinet Ministers selected by gender rather than merit. However ol Ralphy kept a big job overseeing the RCMP etc while his old buddies Dion and McCallum were appointed ‘special advisers’ and sent out to pasture far out of Dodge N'esy Pas?

If you had read some of the stories regarding the RCMP recently, you would have to wonder how this could happen at any work place. There was a story about supervisors running around naked in an office and yet neither was fired. Other stories of women being sexually harassed and the person being promoted, moved somewhere else and repeating the offence. The RCMP are fundamentally broken. I would hate to throw the baby out with the bath water, but perhaps it is time to scrap everyone and start over.
David Amos

@Kim Moore "The RCMP are fundamentally broken. I would hate to throw the baby out with the bath water, but perhaps it is time to scrap everyone and start over"

Methinks all the RCMP truly needs is an ethical Commissioner and proper public oversight However we all know that ain't never gonna happen if they are politically appointed.

Perhaps Harper had something right in that all Senators should be elected. If we rid ourselves f political appointment perhaps our democracy would be better served. Every election we should just add all the Commissioners, Judges and Auditor Generals etc to the list on our ballots as well. The Yankees do it south of 49th in some jurisdictions correct? However I know its a pipe dream simply because the "Power That Be" would never allow that idea to fly just like Trudeau The Younger's ERRE BS never had a hope in Hell It was just pure political rhetoric to secure some votes from the gullible folks Nesy Pas?

David Amos @Jason Dean Remember when Trudeau "The Elder" appointed quite likely the slowest Royal Commission of Inquiry in Canadian history?

The Royal Commission of Inquiry into Certain Activities of the RCMP, better known as the McDonald Commission, was a Royal Commission called by the Canadian government of Pierre Trudeau to investigate the Royal Canadian Mounted Police after a number of illegal activities by the RCMP Security Service came to light in the 1970s. The Commission, Judge David Cargill McDonald, was established on 6 July 1977 and issued its final report in 1981.

Just under ten years but it felt like 20! That paragon of virtue Vic Toews was PS Minister for a long time and may have coached the RCMP into how to do abuse right :-) I will never forget "Are you with us or with the child pornographers?" as he attempted to take away every Canadian's right to privacy, ironically enough to support an organisation tha itself stands accused of abuse.

Minister under fire over handling of RCMP harassment amid $1.1B lawsuit

Critics accuse Ralph Goodale of inaction and call for public inquiry, overhaul of national police force



Dave Seglins· CBC News· Posted: Jun 26, 2018 4:00 AM ET


It will take a change of culture to make the RCMP a place where people can work without fear of harassment, critics say. (Canadian Press)



Canada's Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale is facing renewed criticism over his handling of harassment and bullying inside the RCMP, in the wake of a new $1.1-billion class action lawsuit launched against the force.

"He's been the public safety minister [for years] and quite frankly done nothing," says Darryl Davies, a criminology professor at Carleton University.

Davies, who spent more than two decades working in the federal justice system and now teaches courses on policing in the 21st century, says he believes Canada needs to hold a public inquiry into harassment and systemic problems inside the RCMP.



Darryl Davies, a professor at Carleton University, says that nothing has changed in the RCMP culture despite a series of lawsuits. (Brian Morris/CBC)

"I feel very frustrated by it, because we've had so many of these lawsuits launched in recent years. And you know with the expectation that maybe things would change, that this public safety minister would step up to the plate. But sadly nothing changes," Davies said.

Government responds to lawsuit


On Friday, lawyers for two veteran male RCMP officers filed a $1.1-billion class action claim in federal court that seeks compensation for thousands of past and present employees, male and female, for what they claim is widespread "bullying, harassment and intimidation."
In response, the minister of public safety issued a statement Monday saying, "Harassment cannot be a part of the modern workplace Canadians expect in the RCMP."


Minister of Public Safety Ralph Goodale is pledging 'whatever action is necessary to help all women and men feel safe and respected at work.' (Justin Tang/Canadian Press)
Goodale's office noted the appointment this spring of Brenda Lucki as the RCMP's new commissioner.

"She is expected to lead the force through a period of transformation that will modernize and reform its culture and its management practices," the statement reads.

The public safety minister's staff say he is reviewing several reports he's requested into reforming the RMCP, "carefully examining the recommendations" and pledging "whatever action is necessary to help all women and men feel safe and respected at work."

Calls for civilian oversight, union


But critics argue that there have been too many reports and too little action.

"There will be no end to these types of lawsuits. There will be no end to these types of stories until there is significant structural change in the RCMP," said Pete Merrifield, a serving RCMP sergeant who is also co-chair of the National Police Federation.

Merrifield led the fight all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, winning the right for Mounties to form a union, something that is standard for all other local police forces in Canada.

But after filing applications more than a year ago, Merrifield accuses the federal government of delay tactics. He argues that RCMP officers need protection from reprisals through a union, as well as stronger civil oversight and an "inspector general' who is arm's-length from RCMP management and can investigate internal corruption and harassment allegations.
"There is no one with the power and authority to investigate the RCMP — allegations of corruption, wrongdoing, serious harassment, criminal activity.... that has the mandate," Merrifield said. "An inspector general is much more powerful than an ombudsman and I think a very effective tool to correct the RCMP."

RCMP Assistant Commissioner Kevin Jones said this week the force is working to enhance diversity, gender training and leadership instruction to deal with what past commissioner Bob Paulson in 2016 called "a culture of bullying, intimidation and general harassment."


Assistant commissioner Kevin Jones says the force is working to enhance diversity, gender training and leadership. (Brian Morris/CBC)
"There is no question that in any workplace, we have conflict," Jones said Monday when asked whether the RCMP still suffers from a toxic workplace.

He declined to comment on whether the RCMP needs a public inquiry or some kind of overhaul to fix chronic workplace issues.

"Those are certainly outside the purview of Kevin Jones or the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Those would be decisions for politicians or possibly the minister and I can't really address those things."

Subject: Attn Jan Jensen obviously you don't know that your latest
boss is Nathalie G. Drouin

Hey

Why is you can attempt to order me to send you my communications by
mail yet you feel free to send me your byway a fax even though I have
made the Crown well aware that I prefer emails because I am homelss
hence no phone nor fax machine?

BTW I am kinda curious how you could do all this with Elizabeth
Caverly on Juy 6th and 7th in light of the fact that your email to me
on July 5th informed me that you were out of the office until Tuesday
July 11th? Anyway on Friday I did receive a copy of your latest piece
of work on behalf of the Queen that you obviously sent by Fax late
Thursday afternoon.

However the Hard Copy of the aforesaid document you promised has yet
to arrive by courier or Canada Post. Furthermore you have NEVER sent
me anything byway of courier as of yet. I would like to know why you
falsely claim that you do?

I would also like to know why your friend Elizabeth Caverly allows
other people working for the Crown to file a Motion to Dismiss naming
the wrong party and then another unsigned document to begin again de
nuvo AFTER I had filed an appeal? .

With regards to my brief that your just responded to can't your friend
and fellow employee of the Crwon Elizabeth Caverly even count? The
brief is EXACTLY five pages llonf and I could file any number of
documents supporting it just as you have done several times in the
past. My next doucment will be exactly three pages and I will attach
whatever I wish to support my argument with you as per the court's
directions.

Furthermore I was NOT ordered to file anything. The Court within its
directions of June 8th only admitted that I had the right to do so and
set out the parameters with which it should be done as per the rules
after you and Justice Lebanc stopped from filing largely the very same
documents on April 3rd.  Correct? .

Good Day

Please view attachments

Before I file my next lawsuit please explain why my documents which
included a letter to you and an unsigned draft of a motion that you
did not want me to file that I sent you in confidence as per your
request were filed in the Public Record then argued by the Crown and
even quoted from by Judges of the Federal Court of Appeal?

Whereas the clerks of Federal Court are reluctant to file my brief and
its exhibits Jan Jensen should at very least give his copy to his
associate Paul Adams ASAP.EH?

This is Canada Post's tracking history of my documents

Pentney and John Laskin take a seat on the bench N'esy Pas Mr Prime
Minister Trudeau "The Younger" ???? Better yet have your lawyers even
bothered to read paragraph 83 of my first lawsuit yet?

Subject: WOW two more Judges I have a conflict with and the brief has
already been sent to the court

Well I let the judges decide whether they wish to check my work again
or send me off to the Supreme Court.

My next lawsuit against the RCMP is a dilly anyway.

Enjoy your weekend and the gossip when you get a chance to check it out.

Government of Canada announces judicial appointments to the Federal Courts

OTTAWA, June 23, 2017 /CNW/ - The Honourable Jody Wilson-Raybould,
Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, today announced
the following appointments under the new judicial application process
announced on October 20, 2016. The new process emphasizes
transparency, merit, and diversity, and will continue to ensure the
appointment of jurists who meet the highest standards of excellence
and integrity.

John B. Laskin, partner at Torys LLP, is appointed a judge of the
Federal Court of Appeal. He replaces Madam Justice E.R. Dawson, who
elected to become a supernumerary judge effective January 14, 2017.

William F. Pentney, Q.C., Deputy Minister of Justice and Deputy
Attorney General of Canada, is appointed a judge of the Federal Court.
He replaces Mr. Justice M.L. Phelan, who elected to become a
supernumerary judge effective June 16, 2017.

Biographies

Justice John B. Laskin practised litigation for more than 30 years in
the Toronto office of Torys LLP. In his broad trial and appellate
practice, he represented individuals, corporations, governments and
their agencies, public institutions, industry associations, public
interest groups, and Indigenous organizations. He appeared in the
Supreme Court of Canada, the Federal Courts, every level of court in
Ontario, the courts of seven other provinces and territories, domestic
and international arbitrations, and a variety of administrative
tribunals.

Justice Laskin is a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers
and of Litigation Counsel of America, and has been a member of the
Ontario Regional Committee of the Supreme Court Advocacy Institute. He
has spoken, written and taught frequently on matters of public law and
advocacy, and is co-editor of Canadian Charter of Rights Annotated.
Before entering private practice, he was a professor in the University
of Toronto's Faculty of Law.

Born in Thunder Bay, Justice Laskin holds a B.A. (with distinction)
from York University, an LL.B. (as Gold Medallist) from the University
of Toronto, and an LL.M. from the University of California at
Berkeley. He is a past member of the board of Holy Blossom Temple and
past President of the University of Toronto Law Alumni Association,
and was actively involved in the founding of the Faculty of Law at
Lakehead University. In 2015, he was awarded the Law Society of Upper
Canada's Law Society Medal, given for outstanding service within the
legal profession where the service is in accordance with the highest
ideals of the profession. He is married with three children and (so
far) five grandchildren.

Excerpts from Justice Laskin's judicial application will be available shortly.

Justice William F. Pentney was appointed Deputy Minister of Justice
and Deputy Attorney General of Canada on November 5, 2012. He first
joined the public service in 1991 as General Counsel and Director of
Legal Services at the Canadian Human Rights Commission, where he
remained until 1999.

From 1999-2006, Justice Pentney held a number of positions within the
Department of Justice, including Senior Assistant Deputy Minister for
the policy sector, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General for the
citizenship, immigration and public safety portfolio. From 2006-2007,
he was Assistant Secretary to the Cabinet (Priorities and Planning) at
the Privy Council Office. He later became Associate Deputy Minister of
the Department of National Defence. Justice Pentney served as Deputy
Secretary to the Cabinet (Plans and Consultations) at the Privy
Council Office until his appointment as Deputy Minister of Justice and
Deputy Attorney General of Canada.

Prior to joining the public service, Justice Pentney was a professor
in the Faculty of Law at the University of Ottawa. He holds a B.A.
from Queen's University, in addition to an LL.B. and a master's in
public law from the University of Ottawa. Justice Pentney is the
author of several books and articles, including the revised edition of
Justice W. Tarnopolsky's text Discrimination and the Law in Canada and
Human Rights and Freedoms in Canada: Cases, Notes and Materials (with
Mark Berlin). ‎

Excerpts from Justice Pentney's judicial application will be available shortly.

Quick Facts

    Budget 2017 includes additional funding of $55 million over five
years beginning in 2017-2018 and $15.5 million per year thereafter for
28 new federally appointed judges. Of these new positions, 12 will be
allotted to Alberta and one to the Yukon, with the remaining 15 being
assigned to a pool for needs in other jurisdictions.

    To ensure a judiciary that is responsive, ethical and sensitive to
the evolving needs of Canadian society, the Canadian Judicial Council
will receive $2.7 million over five years and $0.5 million ongoing
thereafter. This will support programming on judicial education,
ethics and conduct, including in relation to gender and cultural
sensitivity.

    Federal judicial appointments are made by the Governor General,
acting on the advice of the federal Cabinet and recommendations from
the Minister of Justice.

    The Judicial Advisory Committees across Canada play a key role in
evaluating judicial applications. There are 17 Judicial Advisory
Committees, with each province and territory represented.

    Significant reforms to the role and structure of the Judicial
Advisory Committees, aimed at enhancing the independence and
transparency of the process, were announced on October 20, 2016.

    The Judicial Advisory Committees in ten jurisdictions have been
reconstituted. Most recently, Minister Wilson-Raybould announced the
composition of three new Judicial Advisory Committees on April 13,
2017.

    This process is separate from the Supreme Court of Canada judicial
appointment process announced on August 2, 2016. Nominees to the
Supreme Court of Canada are selected by the Prime Minister from a
thoroughly vetted list of candidates.

Ex-senior RCMP officer testifies to frustration over delay approving carbines
Force's trial on labour code charges in Moncton Mountie shootings
hears of urgent need for better weapons
CBC News Posted: May 02, 2017 8:30 AM AT

Rod Knecht, who was the senior deputy commissioner in Ottawa at the
time, said he believed it was urgent to get better weapons for
frontline officers following the shooting deaths of four Mounties in
Mayerthorpe, Alta., in 2005.

    'In my mind, it was a pretty easy decision.'
    - Rod Knecht, former RCMP senior deputy commissioner

"I felt there was no need to delay it any further," said Knecht, who
approved research be conducted to identify the best model of the
semi-automatic weapon in early 2011.


Earlier in the day, a lawyer defending the RCMP tried to poke holes in
a 2010 report that recommended patrol carbines be adopted immediately.

Mark Ertel argued the RCMP rejected Carleton University criminology
Prof. Darryl Davies's recommendations because his report failed to
meet expectations — not because the force didn't believe in protecting
its officers.

When the force signed a contract with Davies in April 2009, "it's
obvious from the statement of work the RCMP wants to bring in
carbines,"  Ertel said.

But Davies's report was largely anecdotal, rather than evidence-based,
and he didn't follow what was outlined in his contract, according to
Ertel.

That's why more research was needed in subsequent years as part of the
force's due diligence, Ertel suggested.

In his testimony Monday, Davies said his 2010 report concluded the
RCMP needed to acquire carbines for front-line officers "yesterday."

Carbines have greater range and accuracy than the shotguns used by RCMP.

Crown prosecutor Paul Adams challenged the defence lawyer's assertions
during re-examination of Davies.

He said the criminologist worked closely with the RCMP's use-of-force
section for roughly a year and no one ever told him he should do
things differently.

Outside court, Davies told reporters it was only when Bob Paulson came
in as assistant commissioner of the RCMP that there was confusion
about the expectations from the report.

"There's something that's wrong and it's called incompetence in the
RCMP," said Davies.

"That they wouldn't know what reports they're dealing with, they
wouldn't know what terms of reference they're using, I think it speaks
to the arrogance, it speaks to the inertia and the apathy of senior
managers, and the rank and file have a right to work in a safe
environment."

message has been received. I welcome and appreciate receiving comments
and questions from constituents.

I receive a much larger volume of correspondence (postal and email)
than the average MP. My office replied to over 400,000 pieces of
correspondence 2014. All emails are reviewed on a regular basis,
however due to the high volume of emails my office receives, I may not
be able to respond personally to each one.

My constituents in Saanich-Gulf Islands are my highest priority. If
you are a constituent, please email

Je vous remercie d'avoir communiqué avec moi. La présente réponse vous
confirme que votre message a été reçu. Les questions et les
commentaires des électeurs sont toujours les bienvenus.

Je reçois une correspondance (postale et électronique) beaucoup plus
abondante que le député type. Mon bureau a répondu à plus de 400 000
lettres en 2014. Tous les messages électroniques sont lus
régulièrement, mais, en raison de l'abondance des courriels reçus à
mon bureau, il se peut que je ne sois pas en mesure de répondre
personnellement à chacun d'entre eux.

Mes électeurs de Saanich-Gulf Islands passent en premier. Si vous êtes
un électeur, veuillez écrire à
elizabeth.may.c1a@parl.gc.ca<mailto:elizabeth.may.c1a@parl.gc.ca>.
Pour m'aider à mieux vous servir, veillez à ce que votre courriel
comporte votre nom complet, votre adresse municipale et votre code
postal.

Pour les demandes de rencontre et les invitations, veuillez écrire à
requests@greenparty.carequests@greenparty.ca>.

Je vous remercie encore d'avoir communiqué avec moi.

Elizabeth May, O.C.
Députée de Saanich-Gulf Islands
Chef du Parti vert du Canada

>>> David Raymond Amos Versus The Crown T-1557-15
>>>
>>> 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:
>>>

>>> When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien

>>> The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not

>>>
>>> The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have

>>> That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by

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

Mr. David R. Amos

U.S.A.

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

"The lawsuit was filed in fall 2012 by the group that claims the New
Veterans Charter is unconstitutional and violates the Charter of
Rights and Freedoms. It was approved by a unanimous vote of Parliament
in 2006 and amended in 2011 as a result of public outcry.

Current and former Canadian Forces members are appalled that the
lifetime disability pension for disabled soldiers has been replaced by
lump-sum payments.

Inside court, government lawyer Paul Vickery told a three-judge panel
the appeal was necessary because the soldiers’ claims could negatively
impact fundamental democratic principles.

He told court that while the government readily acknowledges the great
value and sacrifice of the soldiers, Parliament is the “only
appropriate forum” for resolving the claims made in the lawsuit.

“The appeal which the attorney general brings before you is not
brought out of any lack of appreciation of those services,” Vickery
said.

A second federal lawyer then attacked the plaintiffs’ main argument
that they deserve benefits in line with the previous regime, the
Pension Act, based on historical promises. He did not dispute that the
new scheme is “less generous.”

WITHOUT PREJUDICE

Mr. David Amos

Dear Mr. Amos:

This will acknowledge receipt of a copy of your e-mail of December 29,
2006 to Corporal Warren McBeath of the RCMP.

Because of the nature of the allegations made in your message, I have
taken the measure of forwarding a copy to Assistant Commissioner Steve
Graham of the RCMP °J" Division in Fredericton.

Sincerely,

Honourable Michael B. Murphy
Minister of Health

Dear Mr. Amos,

Thank you for your follow up e-mail to me today. I was on days off
over the holidays and returned to work this evening. Rest assured I
was not ignoring or procrastinating to respond to your concerns.

As your attachment sent today refers from Premier Graham, our position
is clear on your dead calf issue: Our forensic labs do not process
testing on animals in cases such as yours, they are referred to the
Atlantic Veterinary College in Charlottetown who can provide these
services. If you do not choose to utilize their expertise in this
instance, then that is your decision and nothing more can be done.

As for your other concerns regarding the US Government, false
imprisonment and Federal Court Dates in the US, etc... it is clear
that Federal authorities are aware of your concerns both in Canada and
the US. These issues do not fall into the purvue of Detachment
policing in Petitcodiac, NB.

It was indeed an interesting and informative conversation we had on
December 23rd, and I wish you well in all of your future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Warren McBeath, Cpl.

Hadrian's Wall under siege by thieves wielding metal detectors

People have been illegally digging holes at Hadrian's Wall in search of artifacts they can sell, according to an inspector with the British government. (Toby Melville/Reuters)

Historical monuments are supposed to be well marked and maintained. The way sheeps are going around, no observation pathway, no historical information sheets - this is not a historical site de facto. No need to complain that somebody start pocking stones for artefacts. Authorities collect enough of tax money to do their job well with places like this, but they rather tamp pockets with cash and pensions. Even in the heart of Europe. Sad to see.

Just so ya know back in 2001 or so I took my young son who will be the next Chief of the the Amos Clan across a pasture just like the one you see in the photograph I sat him on the old Roman wall and told him true stories of just how proud and fierce his ancestors were and that their blood flows through his veins. After the tour of the "Not So Merry" UK I sued Bernard Francis Law in Beantown a Cardinal of the Holy Roman Empire and now I am suing the British Queen the "Protector of the Faith of the Church of England"

People have been illegally digging holes at Hadrian's Wall in search of artifacts they can sell, according to an inspector with the British government. (Toby Melville/Reuters)


A British official has discovered dozens of holes caused by metal detectors at an ancient Roman fortification in the United Kingdom.

Hadrian's Wall is a UNESCO World Heritage Site near the border of Scotland and England.
After a recent tip by a member of the public, Historic England inspector Mike Collins visited and discovered the holes around the 1,900-year-old Brunton Turret section.

He told As It Happens host Carol Off that there have been other instances of illegal metal detecting at the wall in the past couple of years, leading to concerns in his department about a growing trend.
Here's part of that conversation.

What are they looking for?
They're looking for metallic objects... that they can sell.

This is not hobby metal detectorists who are really interested in their past, but know that they have to make the proper environmental checks to make sure they're not on protected sites.
This is a very small criminal element who are looking for metal objects that they think they can sell for their own financial gain.


The Brunton Turret section of Hadrian's Wall was built by the Roman Army's Twentieth Legion. (Historic England)
What kind of things could they find around Hadrian's Wall?
There's always a chance of Roman coinage, but also military equipment, and all of the sort of throwaway everyday objects that an army that's in garrison here for more than 300 years discards on a daily basis.

It's that kind of unglamorous stuff that allows us to piece together the story of Hadrian's Wall and increase our understanding.


They're actually digging into it — they're destroying the wall?
It's not the fabric of the wall itself, it's the archeological deposits on either side of that.

Hadrian's Wall is a complex frontier... It's [made up of] all of the archeology, all of the bits and pieces that people have thrown away during 300 years of military occupation in the northeast and northwest of England.


Historic England says the holes in the ground by Hadrian's Wall were made by nighthawks, the term for illegal metal detectorists. (Historic England)
This is a World Heritage site. Describe it and its significance.
It's a Roman frontier that the Emperor Hadrian decreed should be built sometime around AD 122. We know he visited this frontier after what looks like a border war sometime in the AD 119 or 120.
One of his later biographers actually sums it up really well. They said that he was the first to build a wall to separate the Romans from the barbarians.

So it's a frontier wall with a whole series of ditches and banks and earthworks and forts and milecastles and signal towers and camps. It's a really fascinating Roman landscape from a frontier defence point of view. It's not like any of the other frontiers of the Roman Empire. It's making a really powerful architectural statement as well.

We preserve this site, we work on it really hard precisely because people can come and appreciate it and understand it as a common human past.
The police take it very seriously.- Mike Collins
This isn't just nuisance activity [by the metal detectorists]. This is criminal activity, right?
It is. These sites are protected by UK law.

It is a criminal offence to use a metal detector or to dig on them without very specific permissions. These people clearly don't have those and are either very cavalier about not having permission or deliberately seeking to find things that they could sell regardless of what the law says.


Mike Collins inspects ancient monuments for Historic England. He visited Hadrian's Wall after getting a tip from a member of the public. (Submitted by Mike Collins)
The police take it very seriously and if we find information and we can get the individuals who are responsible for this then, yes, they will be subject to potential criminal sanctions.

"Maritime Iron's website lists no other company operations other than the development of the Belledune project."

People the quote I took from this story, should set off red flags like the Atcon deal Shawn Graham did that cost us the the taxpayers $75 M. Too good to be true well because likely it is!

Forestry practices in New Brunswick is leaving no room for wildlife habitat and populations. The introduction of the Crown Land and Forest ACT in 1982, eliminated the forest as a whole, took 35,000 forestry jobs in 1982 to 12,000 jobs today generating an approximate loss in revenue for New Brunswick close to a Billion dollars annually.

• 1937 to 1969 deer hunters enjoyed a success rate of 49%, characterizing 33 consecutive years with an annual deer harvest of approximately 19,000 to 20,000 animals.
The Hunter success rates were:

• 1937 to 1969 hunter success rate was 49 %

Comparing 1985 deer harvest to 2015

1985 Deer harvest was 31,205 deer
2015 Deer harvest was 4,314 deer.

This representing an 86 % decline of deer harvested over a thirty-year period.
Who is managing our resources??

In 1991 survey more than 88% of New Brunswickers spent 38 million days enjoying wildlife related activities. More than half the residents surveyed in 1991 indicated they would support higher taxes or fees if revenues were dedicated to wildlife conservation.

Wildlife recreation contributed $138 million to the New Brunswick economy in 1991. $50 million from hunting, $ 62 million from recreational fishing, and $ 88 million by non-consumptive consumers generating 2,500 jobs dependent on wildlife and 2100 person-years resulting from services generating $200,000,000 yearly by Residents.

Today, New Brunswick politicians have a poor sense of nature, soft on industry, plans of high taxation levels for citizens and no clues about low impact forestry within special areas because industry does not want it.

Maritime Iron is a Toronto-based private Canadian company developing a world-class dedicated Merchant Pig Iron (MPI) plant in North America.

Our iron plant will be a premier supplier of virgin iron units to electric arc furnace (EAF) steel mills and foundries in North America and Europe. EAF steel mills blend MPI with scrap steel to make superior quality steel products used in various high-end applications.

The facility will bring proven commercial technology currently used in Asia to the North American market. The plant’s strategic location will combine nearby access to Canada’s primary iron ore export terminals, in-place and underutilized infrastructure, and an adjacent electrical generating station to create a low-cost producer for MPI. This technology also possesses numerous environmental benefits including the recycling of process gases to produce electricity in the neighbouring coal-fired power plant.

Proposed Belledune iron ore project already a recipient of taxpayer help

Maritime Iron got $625,000 from province over past 2 years for 'pre-feasibility' studies

Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Jun 25, 2018 6:31 PM AT

Premier Brian Gallant said the $1 billion processing facility in Belledune would create 1,000 short-term jobs and more than 200 permanent jobs. (Serge Bouchard/CBC)


The company that Premier Brian Gallant welcomed to Belledune last week has been trying to get its iron-ore processing plant up and running for three years.

It's also been receiving money from New Brunswick taxpayers for almost as long.
Public records show Maritime Iron Inc. has received a total of $625,000 from the province in the last two years, even though it lost a potential investor in the Belledune plant in 2015.

Gallant held a news conference last Thursday to announce the company wants to start building the plant next year and start production in 2022, depending on feasibility studies.

He said construction would create 1,000 jobs and the company would employ more than 200 people when it is running.

Gallant described the province as a "partner" in the project, though company chairman Greg McKenzie was cagey in an interview about what that entailed.

"The government has certain programs that are available to a project such as this," McKenzie said.

"Especially when you're going to be partnering or working with public institutions, it makes sense that everybody's interests are aligned. We believe it makes sense for the government to be aligned with us and be a partner in the funding as well."

Maritime Iron’s executive chair Greg McKenzie, seated next to Gallant, has not been specific about what it means to have New Brunswick as a partner in the project. (Serge Bouchard/Radio Canada)
 
 
Government spokesperson John McNeil said Monday that there is "no financial commitment" from the province, but that could happen in the future.

Public accounts documents listing government grant recipients and suppliers show the province paid Maritime Iron $250,000 in 2015-16 and $375,000 in 2016-17.

The province says that was for "pre-feasibility" studies, not the "feasibility" studies still on the way.
Opposition Progressive Conservative MLA Bruce Fitch questioned why people are only hearing about Maritime Iron now.

"If this thing had been floating around in 2015, don't you think somebody would have been talking about it back then?"

'Lots to do'


At last week's announcement, Gallant said the need for an environmental review and for community and Indigenous consultations means "there is still lots to do" before the project is a sure thing.

That appears to be an understatement. McKenzie said the company has not put any financing in place because it's too early.

"You don't finance the construction before you've completed a bankable feasibility study and before you've got environmental permitting and you've done your consultations with First Nations and community groups," he said.

He said the plant will be the first significant producer of pig iron in North America and will fill a market niche. The location near major shipping lanes is also a plus, but "all of those details have to be studied out in the feasibility study," he said.

Green Party Leader David Coon raised an eyebrow at the timing of the announcement, considering how few details are available. (Joe McDonald/CBC)
 
 
Green Party Leader David Coon said the lack of detail in the announcement, made just three months before a provincial election, was worrying.

"Is this serious, or is this just electioneering?" he said. "The details are slim."

Earlier deal fell through


While McKenzie said it was too early to pursue financing, Maritime Iron did sign a deal with a potential investor three years ago — only to see it fall through.

Vancouver-based EastCoal Inc. said in September 2015 it would invest in the project. The company said in a news release at the time that Maritime Iron was was "completing a feasibility level study and related processes" to build the plant.

But three months later EastCoal announced it was "unable to complete the required funding" to make the investment.
Obviously, any industrial development will have an environmental footprint.- Greg McKenzie, Maritime Iron chairman
McKenzie said that's in part because Maritime Iron hadn't yet adopted the specific processing technology it now says it will use in Belledune.

"That deal didn't happen in 2015, and we're here in 2018, more than three years later, or almost three years later," he said. "And we think what we have on the table today is an exciting step forward."

Korean technology is new


Maritime Iron plans to use a processing technology called Finex, owned and licensed by Posco, a major Korean company.

He said the 2015 study mentioned by potential investor EastCoal was actually the "pre-feasibility" study.

"It's the same location, same idea, but different process. There's many different process and many different technologies that can be used to upgrade iron ore into pig iron."

Asked if the Finex system makes the business case better than what the company had in 2015, McKenzie pointed out he wasn't the company chair then.

"Look, it's different," he said. "I don't want to keep referring back to what was going on in 2015. That's not my frame of reference."

Silent on emissions


McKenzie was similarly tight-lipped on what impact the proposed plant would have on New Brunswick's greenhouse gas emissions — a key issue as the company prepares for an environmental impact assessment.

"I wouldn't just throw numbers around," he said. "I think that's not responsible."

Gallant claimed last week the project would have a "lower environmental footprint" because of the Finex technology, which will send a gas byproduct from the iron refining to NB Power's Belledune generating station.

NB Power's Belledune generating station would be able to burn a gas byproduct of the iron ore plant, according to Gallant. (Environment and Climate Change Canada)
 
 
That will reduce the station's use of coal, cutting emissions from 2.8 megatonnes to one megatonne a year, Gallant said last week.

The premier also said the project would "significantly reduce overall global GHG emissions" because iron ore now shipped from Quebec and Labrador to China would instead be sent to Belledune, reducing the emissions of freighter ships.

But the plant will itself generate emissions, the company acknowledged.

"Obviously any industrial development will have an environmental footprint," McKenzie said.

He wouldn't provide the company's estimate of those emissions, though. He said the assessment will look at "those precise details."

Provincial goal at risk


New Brunswick has legislated an objective of lowering greenhouse gas emissions to 10.7 megatonnes by 2030. Any increase would make that goal harder to achieve, and the reduction from ocean freighters would not count toward the province's total.

Gallant has also claimed that he's been able to avoid a new carbon tax on gasoline because the province has hit the federal emissions target — but that, too, would be in jeopardy if the iron ore plant creates a net increase.

Coon said a reduction in coal use at Belledune "would be quite positive" but if the iron plant creates a net emissions increase, "obviously deeper reductions would have to be made elsewhere in the economy."

McKenzie also avoided specifics on whether Maritime Iron had shopped its proposal to other provinces in the region.
"Look, I think a project like this is possible to build in different locations," he said. "It's part of the reason why, earlier in the history of the company, we did do site reviews of other locations.

"Belledune is always mentioned as an industrial site. If you're going to do an industrial development project, this is one of the locations that makes sense to do it."

Maritime Iron's website lists no other company operations other than the development of the Belledune project.

Excited about new jobs? Hold on, here are 6 N.B. announcements that fizzled

Projects promising thousands of jobs announced by the province over the last decade have failed to materialize



Robert Jones· CBC News· Posted: Jun 26, 2018 5:00 AM AT



It's not uncommon for New Brunswick politicians to trumpet the proposed benefits a major economic development project only to see it fall apart. Energy East is a recent behemoth that fits the bill. (Jeff McIntosh/Canadian Press)


Premier Brian Gallant's announcement last week of a possible $1 billion iron-ore processing development in Belledune that will employ hundreds of people might seem premature given the project has not undergone a feasibility study yet, but in New Brunswick that's not unusual.

Counting jobs before they hatch has a long history among New Brunswick politicians who often find the practice irresistible no matter how tentative the proposal might be or how many previous major announcements have been made that ultimately dissipated into nothingness.

Premier Brian Gallant last week announcing a feasibility study will be done to see if an iron-ore processing facility in Belledune is viable. Despite the uncertainty, he said the plant would employ hundreds during construction and hundreds more during operation. (CBC)
 
 
"We are not as skeptical as we should be," said St. Thomas University journalism professor Michael Camp of the public's consumption of government economic development announcements.
"They don't really have a plan. They have a dream and they're announcing a dream."

Over the last decade New Brunswick has had several dreamy economic development project announcements that failed to materialize as advertised — but not before first being milked for political gain as game-changing job creators — some more than once.

Here's a look at six of the largest of the last decade that struggled to match their political hype

1.  Energy East

 

Former New Brunswick Premier David Alward at a news conference celebrating the Energy East pipeline proposal in August 2013. Alward called the project a game changer for the province that would create 4,000 jobs. It was cancelled in 2017. (CBC)
 
 
The most recent project promising economic revival for New Brunswick that went bust was the multibillion-dollar Energy East pipeline that was to bring western crude oil to Saint John and a related $350-million Irving Oil Marine terminal that was to be attached to it.

The two developments had enormous and ultimately fatal regulatory, political and economic hurdles to clear, but that didn't stop all the benefits for New Brunswick being added up and widely publicized, including the promised creation of 4,000 jobs inside the province.

"It's not an overstatement to say (it's) a game changer. It will change the direction of our province. It will change the direction of our economy. It will change the fate of many of our families and citizens and it will help create a stronger more prosperous future for all of us," said Premier David Alward in a typical assessment of the project in 2013. It was cancelled in 2017.

The most frequently proposed big project in New Brunswick promising jobs that then never moved forward is the construction of a second nuclear reactor next to the existing Point Lepreau Generating Station.  

Former Premier Richard Hatfield first proposed a second reactor during the 1987 provincial election. He lost handily, but 20 years later Premier Shawn Graham liked the idea so much he proposed it again — twice.

In 2007, Graham held a large signing ceremony with Atomic Energy Canada Ltd. to launch a feasibility study into building a large new prototype reactor at Lepreau that eventually fizzled.

Undeterred, Graham signed a similar agreement with the French nuclear company Areva in July 2010, just before the start of a provincial election that year.

It was the second attempt the Graham government made to try and have a second reactor built at Lepreau but was unsuccessful. (CBC)
 
 
"A project of this magnitude would create 8,500 direct and indirect jobs for New Brunswickers in all regions of our province," said Graham. The Areva proposal also failed to ignite.

 

3.  A 2nd oil refinery

 

Irving Oil Ltd. proposed to spend $7 billion to construct a second oil refinery in Saint John in 2007. But the project fell apart and was cancelled in 2009. (CBC)
 
 
Irving Oil's proposal in 2007 to spend $7 billion to construct a second oil refinery in Saint John ignited intense optimism — and huge job creation projections — until the project fell apart and was cancelled in 2009.  

Along with the proposed second reactor at Lepreau, a second potash mine in Sussex (which was built but quickly closed) and other energy projects, the second refinery was expected to anchor the creation of 33,000 new jobs in New Brunswick, according to projections by the province at the time.

"They're astonishing to think about," said Graham in the spring of 2008 about the expected benefits.

4.  A solar cell manufacturing plant

Just as the second refinery idea was waning in 2009, another energy project promising 1,000 construction and 350 permanent jobs in Miramichi presented itself.

The Norwegian solar company UMOE proposed building a $600-million manufacturing  plant on the site of the city's old paper mill.

The province promoted the development as an important win for northeastern New Brunswick, but UMOE backed out in May 2010. Not only were there no jobs, but, according to a prior agreement, the province was then forced to buy back the old paper mill property from UMOE at a cost of $10.8 million.

 

5.  A potash manufacturing plant

 

Alward, former natural resources minister Bruce Northrup and Keith Attoe, co-chief executive officer of Atlantic Potash Corp., signed a two-year deal for potash exploration rights in December 2011.
 
 
Alward promoted a number of projects during his term as probable job creators that struggled to advance, including two from a company called Atlantic Potash.  

In 2011, it proposed to develop a new mine in the Sussex area if deposits panned out, an idea the province quickly promoted.

"If exploration by Atlantic Potash Corp. confirms this is an economically viable deposit, developing a new mine would mean hundreds of jobs and generate much-needed revenue to help pay for health care, education and other public service," said Alward in 2011.
That never happened.

Later in 2013, the company said it also planned to build a potash manufacturing facility in Saint John, even if the mine proved uneconomical.

The company put forward eye-popping numbers for both projects, suggesting its mine would create 16,700 direct and indirect jobs during construction and its Saint John manufacturing plant would permanently employ more than 500 people once constructed.

In 2014, Alward was still including the company's plans in speeches he gave describing "exciting" developments on the way. So far neither project has materialized.


6.  Tungsten mine

 

If developed, the Sisson Mine would be in operation for about 27 years and cost an estimated $579 million. (Submitted Sisson Mining Ltd)
 
 
One of the longest running development proposals in New Brunswick that has been promoted as a major job creator since 2013, first by Alward and then by Premier Brian Gallant, is the Sisson tungsten mine near Stanley.

Alward announced that it would "likely" begin construction in 2014 creating more than 500 jobs. That didn't happen and neither did the new predicted start date of this spring put forward last year by federal Liberal cabinet minister Dominic LeBlanc.
The company itself has not made a final investment decision to proceed with the mine and markets have been reluctant to bet on the project happening at all, bidding the company's share price down into to the 10-cent range for much of this year.

Still, the province has been promoting the mine, and the jobs it promises, as a near certainty for five straight years.

"The economic impact of the Sisson Mine project will be huge for New Brunswick," said Gallant last year.

Former Tory cabinet minister Jeannot Volpé announces return to politics

Former cabinet member seeking PC nomination in Madawaska Les Lacs-Edmundston

Jeannot Volpé announced at a press conference on Monday that he’s returning to politics. ((CBC))
 
Former provincial cabinet minister Jeannot Volpé announced on Monday he's running to represent the Progressive Conservatives in the riding of Madawaska Les Lacs-Edmundston for the upcoming election.

Volpé, the only person who's announced they intend to run for the nomination, is likely to challenge MLA Francine Landry, the Liberal minister of economic development.

Volpé was the former New Brunswick natural resources minister from 1999 to 2003 during the Bernard Lord government and served as Lord's finance minister between 2003 and 2006. Volpé was the interim PC leader in 2007 and 2008 after Lord resignation.

Last February, Volpé said the government should consider a requirement that industrial players like J.D. Irving Ltd. buy a portion of their wood from New Brunswick's forest product marketing boards as a condition for access to trees on Crown land.

In 2013, Volpé also came out criticizing how the David Alward government tackled the province's finances. He was also one of former MLAs who complained to the New Brunswick Human Rights Commission about the retroactive reductions to their pension benefits in 2012, when the Alward government reversed a 2008 decision that boosted the pensions.

When Volpé was leader of the New Brunswick Conservatives in 2007, he said Brunswick News Inc. should be forced to sell off some of its media holdings.

No candidate for the Progressive Conservative Party has yet indicated an intention to succeed Madeleine Dubé in the neighbouring riding of Edmundston-Madawaska Center. Dubé announced her departure from politics in February.

Again, incorrect analysis. Neither party had any choice regarding the candidate that eventually carried the nomination. The Republicans were powerless to stop a populist monster of their own creation, deciding instead to try and tame him (in hindsight, a terrible choice). While the Democrats were powerless to stop a political (and decidedly not populist) monster who used all of her energy and accumulated political capital to engineer a run that was doomed from the start, and instead of fighting it, the base and establishment drank the koolaid (another terrible choice)...

...and here we are.

@Jim Palmer "You selling your soul to the Devil just to 'get elected' as well, Mitt ? "

Methinks Mean Old Mitt sold his soul to the Devil long before he and I crossed paths in Massachusetts in 2002. That was when he was telling lies about taxes so he could run for Governor where my Clan lives and litigated against the Taxman. Everybody trusts The New York Times N'esy Pas?

https://www.nytimes.com/2002/06/07/us/massachusetts-candidate-confirms-utah-as-residence.html

"Mitt Romney, the Republican candidate for governor, acknowledged today that he filed tax returns in 1999 and 2000 saying he was a part-time resident or nonresident of Massachusetts, while he lived full time in Utah running the Winter Olympics.

The Massachusetts Constitution requires a candidate for governor to have lived in the state for seven consecutive years before running, and Mr. Romney's admission raised new questions about his candidacy. On Wednesday, he acknowledged saving $54,000 in taxes by claiming his multimillion dollar Utah house as his primary residence.

James Roosevelt, the state Democratic Party's lawyer, said at a news conference today that the party was likely to challenge Mr. Romney's residency with the state Ballot Law Commission by the deadline, 5 p.m. on Friday.

At the same time, the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor, Shannon O'Brien, the state treasurer, raised a further question about Mr. Romney's residency by pointing out that in April 2000 a leading newspaper in Utah, The Deseret News in Salt Lake City, reported that Mr. Romney had declared his house in the Deer Valley section of Park City to be his primary residence"

They will not take the Senate.

The numbers this time around just aren't favorable to them.
9 GOP seats up for election
24 Dems
2 independents ( Dems )

Of the 26 seats not held by GOP 10 of those States voted for Trump in the last election.
Not all of those 10 will go GOP but probably at least 5 will.

Going to have to wait till 2020 to get the Senate. That is when the map swings to the benefit of the Dems.

Trump crows as liberal activist ousts top House Democrat in primary

For the Republicans, 2-time presidential candidate Romney takes 1st step towards expected Senate win

The Associated Press· Posted: Jun 27, 2018 2:18 AM ET





U.S. congressional primaries cause changes in both parties


00:0000:43
Longtime NY Democrat trounced by newcomer, and a familiar face chosen in Utah 0:43
As Donald Trump's party came together, a 28-year-old liberal activist ousted top House Democrat Joe Crowley in the president's hometown Tuesday night, a stunning defeat that suddenly forced Democrats to confront their own internal divisions.

Crowley, the No. 4 House Democrat and until Tuesday considered a possible candidate to replace Nancy Pelosi as leader, becomes the first Democratic incumbent to fall this primary season. He was beaten by underfunded challenger Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a former Bernie Sanders organizer who caught fire with the party's left wing.

Crowley's loss echoed across the political world, sending the unmistakable message that divisions between the Democratic Party's pragmatic and more liberal wings may be widening heading into the high-stakes November midterm elections. It also exposed a generational divide among Democrats still struggling with their identity in the Trump era.

"The community is ready for a movement of economic and social justice. That is what we tried to deliver," Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with The Associated Press. Born in the Bronx to a mother from Puerto Rico and a father who died in 2008, she said she knew she could connect with the district, which includes Queens and part of the Bronx.

"I live in this community. I organized in this community. I felt the absence of the incumbent. I knew he didn't have a strong presence."

Trump, on social media at least, seemed equally excited about Crowley's defeat.

"Perhaps he should have been nicer, and more respectful, to his President!" Trump tweeted, oddly taking credit for a victory by a candidate more liberal than Crowley. He added: "The Democrats are in Turmoil!"

All in all, Trump had reason to celebrate Tuesday night as all three of his endorsed candidates survived primary challenges that could have embarrassed him and the party.

Those included New York Rep. Dan Donovan, who defeated convicted felon Michael Grimm in New York City's only Republican stronghold, and former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who once branded Trump "a fraud" but has warmed to the president in the past two years.
Yet none of the day's contests mattered more to Trump than the one in South Carolina.
Gov. Henry McMaster, one of the president's earliest and strongest supporters, survived an unusually tough challenge from a political newcomer, self-made Republican millionaire John Warren.

The White House went all-in for the governor in recent days, dispatching the president and the vice president to the state in an effort to prevent a political debacle.

Trump's party did just that on Tuesday, though the president has a mixed track record when weighing in on party primaries: His preferred candidates have suffered stinging losses in Alabama and western Pennsylvania in recent months.

With the November general election a little more than four months away, more than half the states had selected their candidates after the day's final votes were counted across South Carolina, New York, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Maryland, Colorado and Utah.

History suggests that Trump's Republican Party, like the parties of virtually every first-term president dating back to Ronald Reagan in 1982, will suffer losses this fall.
Yet Crowley's loss suggests that Democrats must overcome intraparty divisions if they hope to take control of Congress and key governors' offices nationwide.

In New York, Ocasio-Cortez cast Crowley as an elitist out of touch with the community.

"This race is about people versus money. We've got people, they've got money," Ocasio-Cortez said in biographical web ad that followed her through mundane New York life, dressing for work, walking, changing into high heels on the subway platform. "Women like me aren't supposed to run for office."

Trump buoyed by Romney candidacy


Trump got more good news elsewhere in New York City as Grimm failed in his political comeback attempt at the hands of the Trump-backed incumbent Donovan.

Grimm had held the Staten Island seat until 2015, when he pleaded guilty to knowingly hiring immigrants who were in the country illegally to work at his Manhattan restaurant and cooking the books to hide income and evade taxes.

More than 3,200 kilometres away in deep-red Utah, former Massachusetts Gov. Romney defeated little-known state Rep. Mike Kennedy, who questioned Romney's conservative credentials and ability to work well with the president. Romney, too, was endorsed by Trump after the pending retirement of Orrin Hatch despite his aggressive criticism of the president before his election.

In a weekend op-ed published in The Salt Lake Tribune, Romney wrote that the Trump administration's policies have exceeded his expectations, but he pledged to "continue to speak out when the president says or does something which is divisive, racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, dishonest or destructive to democratic institutions."

Trump cheered Romney's win on social media: "I look forward to working together - there is so much good to do. A great and loving family will be coming to D.C."
Romney is contending for one of two handfuls of Senate seats that the Republicans hold and that are up for grabs in November. Some 26 seats that will be contested are held by Democrats or independents who caucus with the Democrats, including several in which Trump carried the presidential vote.

That will make a majority difficult to achieve for the Democrats, who currently hold 49 of 100 seats in the legislative body.

Polis, Jealous could make history


There were also races Tuesday to determine gubernatorial candidates in Maryland, Colorado and Oklahoma.

In Maryland, former NAACP President Ben Jealous seized the Democratic governor's nomination. He would become the state's first African-American governor if he beats Republican incumbent Gov. Larry Hogan this fall.

In Colorado, five-term Democratic congressman Jared Polis won the Democratic nomination in the race to replace outgoing Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper. Polis could become the first openly gay gubernatorial candidate to be voted into office.

And in Oklahoma, former state Attorney General Drew Edmondson beat former state Sen. Connie Johnson to win the Democratic nomination in the race to be the state's next governor.

Oklahoma voters also backed the medicinal use of marijuana despite opposition from law enforcement and business, faith and political leaders.

But Crowley's defeat overshadowed much of the day's developments.

He becomes the first congressional leader to fall in a party primary since former Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor was stunned by unknown conservative Dave Brat in 2014's midterm election.

That loss, and perhaps this one, cemented the GOP's sharp shift away from the political center and foreshadowed the anti-establishment fervour that fuelled Trump's election in 2016.

And while Trump cheered Crowley's downfall, so did liberal leaders who backed Ocasio-Cortez.

"These results are also a shot across the bow of the Democratic establishment in Washington: a young, diverse, and boldly progressive Resistance Movement isn't waiting to be anointed by the powers that be," said Matt Blizek, of MoveOn.

@Richard Sharp "The PM of Canada says he has no recollection of any bad stuff. "

Therein lies the rub. CBC say he said this as well

"Trudeau has said as much in various interviews about his approach to tackling sexual harassment. "We have no tolerance for this — we will not brush things under the rug, but we will take action on it immediately," he told The Canadian Press earlier this year. In a CBC Radio interview around the same time, the prime minister said he should be held to high standards of conduct, adding: "I've been very, very careful all my life to be thoughtful, to be respectful of people's space and people's headspace as well."

All the so called "muckrakers" have to do now is provide the proof which CBC admits has already been done. Furthermore many people knew this gossip has been floating around for a while. Now that CBC finally admitted that it knows of this issue as well there is a huge spotlight on your hero.

Trudeau The Younger truly has boxed himself in just as the title of the article proclaims and the text explains. Methinks he has already been caught in an up to date LIE about something he could not have easily have admitted to and apologized for because of his actions against others.

I suspect that by the time Parliament begins again in the fall for its last kick at the can before the next election this issue will be forgotten by the Crown Corp media as well N'esy Pas?

Trudeau has boxed himself in with his own zero-tolerance policy on sexual misconduct: Robyn Urback

An 18-year-old allegation against Trudeau, originally printed in a community paper, resurfaced this month



Robyn Urback· CBC News· Posted: Jun 27, 2018 4:00 AM ET

If the climate in Canada were different, an 18-year-old allegation of sexual misconduct against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would be swiftly addressed, then probably dismissed.

The allegation originally appeared in an August 2000 edition of the Creston Valley Advance, a small community newspaper in B.C. The editorial, which resurfaced earlier this month, claimed that the then-28-year-old Trudeau "groped" a young reporter at a music festival, noting that he only apologized when he learned that she worked for a newspaper.

If there was no merit to the allegation, in this hypothetical alternative climate, the Prime Minister's Office could simply say so.

If there was merit to the allegation — again, theoretically speaking — Trudeau could concede that he had indeed behaved unacceptably, and remind us that he has since devoted his life to defending the integrity of all Canadians, but especially women.

Again, only if the climate in Canada were different.

In reality, neither of these options is available to Trudeau.

Cannot recall 'negative interactions'


If the allegation is false (CBC News continues to investigate the claim) Trudeau doesn't really have the option, from a political perspective, to say so.

In the current climate, denying the claim is akin to saying, "She's lying," which is a taboo phrase for the leader of a government that has made believing women central to its approach to sexual misconduct allegations.

If the allegation is true, on the other hand, Trudeau can't simply explain, apologize and attempt to move on. It would look like he afforded himself leniency that he'd denied to members of his caucus who were accused of misconduct.

So the prime minister is stuck: he can't confirm or deny. As a result, his office opted for the most unsatisfactory of all possible responses, telling the National Post that Trudeau does not recall any "negative interactions" in Creston during that time. In other words, Canada's highest-profile women's rights advocate has been stricken by a convenient bout of amnesia.
There is room to distinguish this allegation from some of the others that have plagued Ottawa over the past couple of years. The claim is from nearly two decades ago, long before Trudeau entered politics, and without the power imbalance we sometimes see in cases where prominent men abuse their authority. For those reasons, some will surely argue that Trudeau is being unfairly railroaded by a movement that lacks necessary nuance.

And indeed, there would be ample sympathy for this notion, had Trudeau not helped to create the very climate to which he is now vulnerable.

In 2014, he suspended two MPs from the Liberal caucus after allegations surfaced about sexual misconduct. Trudeau publicly named the two — Scott Andrews and Massimo Pacetti — before actually informing them of the allegations against them. A subsequent independent investigation concluded there was merit to the complaints, though they were of two decidedly different natures: Andrews was accused of harassing behaviour, unwelcome groping and grinding, while Pacetti was accused of sex without "explicit" consent.

There are different contexts, implications and considerations when it comes to what these different claims mean, but the Liberal machine nevertheless lumped them together, forcing the pair to share headlines, a hired investigator, and an announcement of their expulsion. Andrews eventually accepted the findings of the review, saying he's since learned how his "jovial Newfoundland friendliness can be perceived," but Pacetti has always maintained his innocence. That important distinction is often overlooked.


Alberta MP Kent Hehr is out of the federal cabinet permanently following an investigation into his conduct with women. (Fred Chartrand/Canadian Press)
More recently, Kent Hehr, once the minister for sports and persons with disabilities, stepped down from cabinet, initially temporarily, in response to allegations that he made sexually suggestive and other unwelcome comments to a woman in an elevator, and touched a woman inappropriately at an event.

Though the subsequent independent investigation found the touch was involuntary (Hehr is a quadriplegic and has limited feeling in and control of his limbs), Hehr conceded that his comments were inappropriate, even though he says he cannot remember the interaction. In any case, Hehr will not return to cabinet.

Interestingly, Hehr managed to maintain his cabinet position up to that point, despite reportedly telling thalidomide survivors that "everyone in Canada has a sob story," and dismissing a Calgary mother's "loaded question" about why the government was denying maternity benefits to sick mothers, saying it was akin to "the old question … 'When did you stop beating your wife?'"

Perhaps it was simply the weight of all of the allegations that made keeping Hehr in cabinet untenable by the time the sexual misconduct claims landed, but the implication is that while there is some tolerance for cabinet members in terms of disparaging the disabled community, there is zero tolerance for harassing women.




The National
Trudeau: Misconduct standards apply to me, too


00:0003:44



Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the zero-tolerance standards on misconduct toward women applies to him, too, in an exclusive interview with CBC News. Trudeau says women who come forward with allegations of misconduct and sexual harassment should be supported 3:44
Trudeau has said as much in various interviews about his approach to tackling sexual harassment. "We have no tolerance for this — we will not brush things under the rug, but we will take action on it immediately," he told The Canadian Press earlier this year. In a CBC Radio interview around the same time, the prime minister said he should be held to high standards of conduct, adding: "I've been very, very careful all my life to be thoughtful, to be respectful of people's space and people's headspace as well."

In his many interviews on the topic, he has not included an appeal for allowances for youthfulness or genuine remorse, or simply the acknowledgement that people sometimes do bad things. This is not to suggest that any combination of these factors should necessarily exonerate the aforementioned men. I only mean to point out that the excuses that some have already used to defend the prime minister against this one accusation (This was almost 20 years ago!) haven't actually crossed his lips.

Trudeau has essentially boxed himself in with his own zero-tolerance policy. He has made clear, over and over again, that there is no time limit on defending women's rights or for standing up for what is right. This is the climate that Trudeau helped create. He can't forget that now.

Republicans practically threw a party during the Obama years when a baker refused to serve Joe Biden. They were elated. It's just like when Republicans were having angry fits when Obama said he would be willing to talk to Kim. Now they a Nobel prize for Trump because he talked to Kim. Their hypocrisy is a matter of public record.

@Cal Mett Biden refused being refused service is a mix of true and false. Joe Biden's staff wanted to host a media event at the store, the store refused due to political differences. Joe Biden didn't stop in to buy some cookies and was refused service. Do a "snopes biden refused service" search. The Republicans took advantage of the event in 2012, Democrats are taking their turn in 2018.

Uncivil society: The divide between passion and practicality in U.S. politics now

People don't feel heard and want to fight back, says professor and Democrat supporter


CBC Radio·

People who are "fighting back for their lives" against the policies of the Trump administration shouldn't be asked to hold on politely for the next election, according to a political science professor.

"People don't feel heard, and I think you are asking them to wait," said Melissa Michelson, a Democrat supporter and professor at Menlo University, California.

"I think that's unreasonable given what is happening to our country," she told The Current's guest host Mike Finnerty. "I think people want to fight back."



Last night I was told by the owner of Red Hen in Lexington, VA to leave because I work for @POTUS and I politely left. Her actions say far more about her than about me. I always do my best to treat people, including those I disagree with, respectfully and will continue to do so


On Friday, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked to leave the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Va. Its proprietor Stephanie Wilkinson took her aside and  "politely" asked her to leave, because she worked for the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump. Sanders left, but the incident caused uproar online, fuelling the debate over civility — or the lack thereof — in American politics.

Speaking at a rally at the weekend, Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters urged people to "push back" if they encountered representatives of the Trump administration in public. In response, Trump tweeted that Waters was "an extraordinarily low IQ person."



Congresswoman Maxine Waters, an extraordinarily low IQ person, has become, together with Nancy Pelosi, the Face of the Democrat Party. She has just called for harm to supporters, of which there are many, of the Make America Great Again movement. Be careful what you wish for Max!



The use of incivility as a political tactic, however, has divided the Democratic opposition.

"When we engage in tactics that are personally just yelling at each other, that tactic — rather than the issue — becomes what is vivid to people," said Celinda Lake, a leading political strategist within the Democratic Party.

Lake told Finnerty that action like this could have an electoral impact.
"For swing voters, when we participate in tactics like this we become part of the problem, rather than part of the solution," she said.

Michelson disagreed, arguing that it will take passion to get people out to vote.
"Enough about reaching out to swing voters," she countered.

"That is not working. The way to victory is to fire up the base, and to fire up people who have not been voting in previous elections."

WH spokesperson says 'calls for harassment' are unacceptable. 1:13
 
 

Midterm elections looming


With U.S. midterm elections in November, Lake argued that the tactic could deflect from issues.
"What we need to do is organize, get out the vote, and win these elections in four months because they have real consequence," she said.
"I'd rather have the Supreme Court in four months and have blockage on the Supreme Court than not have Sarah eat at a restaurant in Virginia," she added.

Michelson argued that it's easy to say that dissatisfied voters need to organize "when you go home and you live a life of relative privilege."

"Members of these marginalized communities — people who are seeing their friends and family members hurt by this administration — just don't think that that's enough," she said.

Oh My the very Corrupt Crown Corp known as CBC decided to ban me again until Canada Day EH?

After I read this notice I got on the phone and called CBC, VIAFOURA and 3 lawyers. Then I began to build this blog while waiting for one of the 3 lawyers to call me back before I send out the email I promised then publish it here before Canada Day. 

 

Your account has been banned until 7/1/2018. Reason: We have banned this account for 3 days because we believe it is in violation of our Terms of Use, specifically repeated uncivil comments and personal attacks. For more information, please visit:
http://www.cbc.ca/aboutcbc/discover/submissions.html  


For the record the people in CBC and VIAFOURA played dumb as usual.  However one of the lawyers listened closely and answered me honestly. He seemed to be an OK dude but he was also busy with his kids in the backgroud. So I figured I would give him a chance to check my work. I hope he get backs to me. On the other hand I have no doubt one the other two local lawyers knew exactly who I was and will never return my calls or answer me in writing. His assistant made fun of me then hung up. All she cared about was how I knew her name and got her number. Need I say that call was to the office of the Fed lawyers in Halifax I have been arguing since 2015?





 

Methinks the Crown's mindless minions picked a very bad day to pick another fight with me. I may explain it later. Anyway as far as comment sections in CBC go  I can always register again pretending to be somebody  I am not just like the Trolls they support do but what would be the point? I have the right to free speech in a website support by my taxpaying dimes. Furthermore if somebody thinks I libeled them within CBC they have the right to sue me or better yet make a complaint to the RCMP in order to have the Crown try to prosecute me under Section 300 of the Canadian Criminal Code  CORRECT?

 

So what the Hell I gave it a shot. Perhaps the third time is the charm? NOPE my third ID lasted only 7 hours or so. It did not survive until the closing time for 3 news items of the day about the USA.

Here is the first blog with my first comment of the day etc.

On October 17th, 2015 I registered in my true name with CBC in order to make comments while running in the election of the 42nd Parliament and arguing the Crown in the Federal Court of Canada. The comment section of this CBC "News" article speaks for itself particularly in light of the election results two days later. However I will only post her what CBC allowed me to publish in the Crown's domain before polling day.

Fundy Royal campaign targets middle class with focus on jobs

Fundy Royal voters have elected Conservatives all but 1 time in 28 elections over 101 years

Candidates running in Fundy Royal are appealing to the middle class in the typically Tory-dominant riding, with a focus on jobs and the economy.

The Conservatives have strong roots in the southern New Brunswick riding — this area has given its support to the Conservatives in every election for the past century, save for 1993, when Liberal Paul Zed won office.

In 2011, Conservative incumbent Rob Moore captured nearly 60 per cent of the vote.

Moore said he hopes the party's record, with its focus on the economy and direct benefits to people, will earn him another term in office.



The Tory incumbent pointed to programs, such as the Universal Childcare Benefit, as well as family income splitting and pension income splitting, that has left more money in the pockets of Canadians.
But, he said, he has also delivered on bringing federal cash to his ridinng.

Moore says the biggest question he's heard at the door is how the next government will move the regions's economy forward.

He says the answer lies in TransCanada Corp.'s proposed Energy East pipeline.

"The [Irving Oil] refinery is employing many people in our region, there's a lot of spinoff benefits, and if we can bring that resource from Alberta to New Brunswick to be refined and sold from our port, that is a great economic opportunity," said Moore.

Liberals focus on seniors, middle class

 The Liberals are trying hard to knock off the Tories. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has already appeared in Sussex, the largest community in the riding.
Liberal candidate Alaina Lockhart said she is trying to appeal her campaign to the middle class.
"That's the majority of Fundy Royal," said Lockhart, who has owned Lockhart's Weddings and Special Occasions Inc. since 2004.

"People working everyday to make ends meet and the fact that we have a national campaign focused on strengthening the middle class to put more money in their pockets to then stimulate the economy, I'm encouraged by that," she said.

Lockhart says her party's focus on seniors through initiatives like affordable housing, strengthening the Canada Pension Plan and guaranteed income supplement would benefit the region.

"They worked hard their whole lives and we need to make sure they have secure retirements," she said.

Hopeful for change


NDP candidate Jennifer McKenzie says she's sensing an eagerness for change in the large riding.
McKenzie, an electrical engineer living in St. Martins, threw her name in after becoming "discouraged and disillusioned by the current government."
People want our youth back, we want to have reasons to stay here.- NDP candidate Jennifer McKenzie
The region has lost a lot of its youth because of the Harper government's lack of focus on the economy, she said.

" be part of the economy and have jobs," she asid.

"The current government's focus on the prairie provinces in the oil and gas industry left New Brunswick and the Atlantic provinces neglected, and we actually had a three year recession here."
McKenzie says the NDP's focus on small business would better serve the area's economy.

"Our agricultural industry should be flourishing, we have to make sure we protect the family farm, there's fishing, forestry, I'm proud of our tourism initiatives, so much is a good fit to the NDP," she said.

Lost youth

 


The proposed Energy East pipeline could add new jobs to the communities inside Fundy Royal, according to Conservative MP Rob Moore. (Dan Riedlhuber/Reuters)

 The proposed Energy East pipeline is popular in many parts of the southern New Brunswick riding, but the Green candidate said it is the wrong way to attract investment.
Stephanie Coburn, the Green Party candidate for Fundy Royal, says the promise of 14,000 direct and indirect full-time jobs across Canada is "hugely exaggerated."

"The pipeline is a bad idea for people locally and we heard about the pipeline spills in northern Alberta and Michigan, and that ... oil they hope to bring in through the pipeline is impossible to cleanup," Coburn said.

"It's a bad idea nationally because it's all going to be exported … And it's going to contribute so much to the greenhouse gases we're trying to avoid to the globe, and exacerbate global warming terribly."
Coburn says she has heard encouragement for her party at the door, a big turnaround from when she first stepped into the political arena in 2010.

"Now I feel I'm finally not talking into the wind as I have been a long time about environmental issues," said Coburn.

"People are aware of the environmental problems we experience, and we're going to experience if we don't make some changes. That's a positive change from when I first ran."

Fundy Royal contains parts of the counties of Albert, Kings, Queens, Saint John and Westmorland and includes St. Martins, Salisbury, Sussex and Petitcodiac, as well as part of Quispamsis.

@David Amos FYI

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/factscan-plans-to-test-political-claims-during-election-1.2951761

Tall tale-telling politicos, take heed: You could soon find your claims put through the truth grinder by the folks at FactsCan, a newly launched website that aims to provide an independent, non-partisan fact-checking service during the upcoming federal election. 

■FactsCan website 

According to co-founder Dana Wagner, who also works as a researcher at Ryerson University in Toronto, the team behind the site wants to help voters "separate out the truth from spin, distortion, omission, error and lies."

"Our goal is to enable Canadians to critically engage in political-speak, and to encourage politicians to be honest and accurate with their words," she told CBC News via email.

Unlike many countries, she noted, Canada does not have a major fact-checking outlet — and FactsCan is hoping to change that before the next election.

Do ya think the lawyer Rob Moore "The True Conservative" or any of the others would dare to debate me in writing with their true name within a website funded by the taxpayer and controlled by questionable public servants? How about outside the CROWN"s domain within the Yankee website called Twitter? That is where I play very serious Political Hard Ball.

@tony forward For the record CBC is well aware that I am the fifth candidate. Hance Colburne of CBC moderated the debate in Hampton on Oct 7th one before CBC posted on their website on Oct 14th his interview with Rob Moore on CBC airwaves

BTW Rob Moore and I know the truth about Randy Quaid's questionable arrests in Canada and the USA. More importantly so does Randy I know that for a fact.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/randy-quaid-release-jail-vermont-1.3274216

"I never worried about being found guilty or any of that for any of these charges because I know the truth, and I know the facts are going to come out at some point, and today was a good sign of that," Randy Quaid said

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/randy-quaid-court-appearance-1.3262238

"Quaid and his wife Evi, a Canadian citizen, have been living in Montreal since February 2013."

"Robert Gervais, an official with the Immigration and Refugee Board, confirmed in an email to CBC News that a detention review hearing for Quaid is scheduled for Thursday afternoon.

But the reason for the actor's arrest is unclear.

Quaid, 64, was detained Tuesday morning after attending a regular check-in with CBSA officials in downtown Montreal.

Quaid's lawyer, Mark Gruszczynski, declined to shed light on the affair or to reveal the reason for Quaid's arrest."









That said lets just say that I have no doubt whatsoever what spawned CBC's latest malevolent actions against me. Methinks it had everything to do with my spit and chews yesterday about Mitt Romney and Justin Trudeau N'esy Pas?

The records within 3 of my blogs published yesterday versus that of CBC's should speak volumes to anyone with half a clue between their ears.

Court brushes aside arguments in criminal appeal of unilateral power

Last year, the Liberals amended the Judicature Act to take away the unilateral power to transfer judges


Marc Richard was sworn in as chief justice for New Brunswick in May. (CBC)

New Brunswick's top court has suggested it's fine with the unilateral power that Court of Queen's Bench Justice David Smith used to have — before the Liberals took it away last year.
The court brushed aside arguments Tuesday in a criminal appeal that Smith's former power to transfer judges had compromised the independence of two judges who heard three of the Operation J-Tornado drug trials.

The lawyers were trying to overturn the convictions of Shane Williams, Anthony Edison and Joshua Kindred.

The Court of Queen's Bench judges in the trials, William Grant and Thomas Christie, both admitted wiretap evidence obtained through warrants signed by Smith in 2014.

Grant and Christie lacked the independence to rule on Smith's warrants because, in theory, Smith had the power to punish them by transferring them, the two lawyers argued.

But Chief Justice Marc Richard, in one of his first cases as head of the appeal court, clearly didn't buy that.

"Do we know of one example where a justice was moved by a chief justice against their will as a punishment for them doing their job?" he asked.


Court of Queen's Bench Chief Justice David Smith has transferred 13 judges since becoming chief justice in 1998. (Acadia University)
Nathan Gorham, the lawyer for Williams and Kindred, did not offer an example.

Instead, he argued that Smith's unilateral power created the possibility of such punishment — and that undermined public faith in the judge's independence.

"It's about looking at the objective structure of the court to determine if there are sufficient guarantees of independence," he said.

Richard was not convinced, saying the argument would mean any warrant signed by Smith could not be reviewed by a trial judge.

"You're saying no judge in New Brunswick can rule on a warrant … issued by the chief justice of the Court of Queen's Bench," he said. "That's got to be your position."

Amended Judicature Act


Last year, the Liberal government of Premier Brian Gallant amended the Judicature Act to take away Smith's unilateral power to transfer judges on his court. Now, Smith must seek the consent of the provincial justice minister.

Smith complained that was a violation of his court's independence.

The drug trials took place before the Liberal amendments, when Smith could move judges on his own.
Gorham and Charles Bryant, the lawyer for Edison, argued judges must also be independent of their own chief justice.

Operation J-Tornado 


In 2014, Smith authorized three warrants that allowed police to monitor private e-mails and ultimately convict Williams, Kindred and Edison, along with several others. The police investigation was part of a major Saint John-area drug probe named Operation J-Tornado.

The three men were convicted on separate trials but police relied on the same evidence. The information gathered from the wiretaps approved by Smith was key to the convictions.
Richard said there has never been an issue with a chief justice's administrative powers before.
"Nobody has raised this. This has not been a concern for anybody."

Bryant argued that because of the controversy over the curtailing of Smith's powers, including a private exchange of letters between judges on the issue that became public, the perception of the issue is now more important.


Charles Bryant, Anthony Edison's lawyer, argued that trial judges who heard his client's case were 'insufficiently independent' of Chief Justice David Smith. (CBC) 
But Richard was again having none of it.

"The argument you're putting forward is that your client could not be tried the moment the chief justice signed the warrants," he said.

Richard and the two other justices hearing the appeal, Margaret Larlee and Kathleen Quigg, avoided wading into the debate over the Liberal amendments to the Judicature Act.

The Liberal government argued it needed to curtail Smith's powers because his frequent transfers were creating a "revolving door" in smaller communities, with judges appointed there and then soon transferred to larger centres.

Richard mused at one point that maybe the solution would be for governments and the courts to avoid the issue altogether.

"What about no transfers at all?" he asked. "You accept the appointment you accepted and you stay there."

After the hearing's afternoon break, Richard signalled that the three justices were dismissing the Judicature Act arguments.

He told the federal lawyer arguing against the appeal, Michael Taylor, that he did not have to bother responding to the independence issue.

The three justices were more interested in arguments from Gorham and Bryant about the affidavits used to admit the warrants at the trial. The lawyers argued they lacked required certification from an oaths commissioner and did not include a date when they would expire.

Larlee said she found the lack of a duration on the warrants "troubling."

Bryant said that kind of sloppiness was unacceptable for affidavits that allowed police to eavesdrop on citizens. That kind of intrusive investigation has to meet a high standard, he said.

The appeal court will rule on those arguments at a later date.

Green leader turfed from P.E.I. Legislature as sitting comes to dramatic close

Bevan-Baker escorted from chamber after referring to 'farcical' debate over legislation


Green Leader Peter Bevan-Baker was removed from the legislature on Wednesday after refusing to withdraw the word 'farce' from the public record. (P.E.I. Legislature)

The fall sitting of the P.E.I. Legislature came to a dramatic close Wednesday with Green party Leader Peter Bevan-Baker ordered removed from the legislative chamber for refusing to withdraw the word "farce."

In the final minutes of the fall sitting, the Public Interest Disclosure and Whistleblower Protection Act came up for third reading. Bevan-Baker introduced a motion to have it sent back to the legislature for further debate.

"In the last few days I have witnessed some of the most discouraging debates on legislation since I was elected two-and-a-half years ago," he told the house.

"We were given the sacred trust to bring forth strong and meaningful legislation that will enhance government transparency and accountability .... And we turned that debate Mr. Speaker, at times into a farce."

Government House leader Richard Brown rose on a point of order, taking issue with Bevan-Baker's statement, and in particular his use of the word "farce."

Unparliamentary word

Speaker Buck Watts ruled the word unparliamentary, and asked Bevan-Baker to withdraw the word from the public record.

"I used the word intently and I used the word consciously," Bevan-Baker said, accusing government MLAs of voting down opposition amendments to bills before they'd been provided with written copies of the amendments.


The Green party Leader Peter Bevan-Baker is removed from the legislature on Wednesday by the sergeant-at-arms. (P.E.I. Legislature)
"If the purpose of this house is to carefully consider legislation that is going to affect each and every Islander, then surely we have to do that with the information in front of us, and we cannot do that if we are prejudging something … before we even see it. So I will not withdraw my remark. I think at times yesterday the display of the government side was indeed farcical."

Watts provided Bevan-Baker with one more chance to withdraw his remark before ordering the sergeant-at-arms to remove the Green party leader.
The Whistleblower Protection Act was one of three key pieces of legislation, debate over which kept the house sitting for 22 days — the second-longest fall sitting of the P.E.I. legislature since fall sittings began 20 years ago.

Numerous amendments to the act were introduced by both opposition parties, only to be voted down by government MLAs. Opposition attempts to amend another important bill, the Lobbyist Registration Act, were similarly defeated.

 

Water Act amended


However, both opposition parties were able to exert some influence over the most important piece of legislation passed during the sitting, the province's Water Act.
So I will not withdraw my remark. I think at times yesterday the display of the government side was indeed farcical.— Peter Bevan-Baker
The government introduced its own amendment to the act that mirrored an amendment circulated by the Green party. The amendment removed what opposition parties were calling a "loophole" allowing cabinet to overrule a ban on fracking in the province.

Meanwhile, the PCs were able to pass an amendment which requires government to send new or amended regulations to the act to a provincial standing committee a minimum of 90 days before the regulations are enacted.

All told, government passed 17 of its bills in the fall sitting, while the Opposition saw one of its private member's bills pass, providing more protection under Workers' Compensation for Island workers suffering from PTSD.

Horse feathers. The late 70s recession collapsed manufacturing and primary industry. The rich got richer, while the “economy” (wages, job security, benefits) for the rest of us never recovered. The one in the late 80s finished the job. Rich got richer, and for the rest stagnation or worse. Late 90s/early 2000s dotcom burst again made the rich richer, while most lost even more buying and spending power. 2008, retirements got whiped out and millions lost everything, with no real recovery since, but big surprise, the economy for the rich and “investor” class somehow skyrocketed. And now? 2018?

Take a guess and which end of the hose you’ll be drinking from if you’re not already a millionaire.

As yield curves threaten to invert, market watchers sit up and pay attention

When the yield curve inverts, it's usually a sign the U.S. is headed for recession



Pete Evans· CBC News· Posted: Jun 28, 2018 4:00 AM ET

A red figurine sits atop a trader's desk at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange last year. As short-term interest rates rise and long-term ones stay low, many economists are starting to worry about inverted yield curves and their knack for predicting recessions. (Krisztian Bocsi/Bloomberg)



It may not have escalated to the level of water cooler talk, but an obscure and obtuse-sounding economic indicator is a hot topic of conversation among the investment community of late.

The yield curve on government debt — the gap between how much long-term bonds pay out versus short-term ones — is at its lowest level in more than a decade, and opinion is somewhat divided on how bad a sign it is for the economy.
Under normal circumstances, the yield on long-term bonds should be much higher than the yield on short-term ones to properly reward investors for the risk of waiting longer to get paid, particularly since inflation can eat away at value over time.

At various times over the past decade, the gap between long-term and short-term yields has been as high as four percentage points — or as much as 400 basis points, to use the Bay Street parlance. But lately, gaps around the world have shrunk to their narrowest point in years, leaving many experts to wonder when it may invert.

If that happens — if long-term yields dip below short-term ones — it could be a sign investors are losing confidence in the economy over the long haul. And that's a very serious situation that some economists say could throw the economy upside down.

"Markets are very firmly focused on the shape of the yield curve and its potential to invert," says Frances Donald,​ Manulife's chief economist. "Particularly the U.S. one."

Bad sign


That's because a so-called inverted yield curve has a troubling knack for showing up right before the economy is about to go pear-shaped.

The phenomenon has happened right before almost every single recession dating back to the Second World War. The most recent case where the U.S. went into recession without first seeing the yield curve invert was in 1990, but even then it came close.

Currently, the gap between the two-year U.S. bond and the 10-year bond is just 32 basis points. That's the thinnest it's been since 2007.

To Donald, how much weight you give an inverted yield curve boils down to where you stand on one question: Do they actually cause recessions, or merely show up ahead of one that was already on its way?
Donald sums up the first perspective this way: If short-term interest rates are higher than long-term ones, it's more expensive to borrow now rather than later, which makes growth slow down and leads to recession.

But those on the other side of the argument point out yield curves typically invert when central banks hike rates, "which raise the front end of the curve," but do nothing for the end of it, Donald says.

"Because they always raise rates at the end of [business] cycles, we tend to see inverted yield curves at the end of a cycle."

While Donald isn't among those who think an inverted curve would be a sign the sky is falling, she says it's definitely on her radar. "Getting the reason behind why it's inverting ... is one of the most important questions facing investors today."

It's also much more important when the U.S. curve inverts than when it does anywhere else.

Keep calm. Carry on


CIBC's head of rates strategy, Ian Pollick, says it's hard for him to get worked up about inverting yield curves this time around, partly because it's actually happened recently. In Canada. Last month, in fact.
Although it was only brief, the yield on Canada's 30-year bond in May briefly dipped below the yield on the 10-year bond before quickly reverting back to around a 10-point spread today.

"When we were talking to investors and talking to stakeholders," Pollick says of when that happened, "what we tried to express was that it's not saying something deleterious about the macroeconomic environment."

(That's economist-speak for: "Keep calm. Carry on.")
Pollick shares Donald's view that a narrowing yield spread is to be expected right now because central banks in Canada and the U.S. are hiking interest rates. That pushes up short-term yields, but leaves the long end of the curve as flat as ever.

So even if the U.S. yield curve inverts, "we don't think its sending a negative signal on the economy," Pollick says.

"And we don't see it as a situation that's going to persist for very long even if it does happen."

U.S. House Republicans shout down deputy attorney general at tense hearing

Rosenstein has become target for Trump allies for appointing Mueller to head Russia probe

Thomson Reuters· Posted: Jun 28, 2018 1:38 PM ET



Deputy U.S. Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, right, and FBI Director Christopher Wray testify before a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington on Thursday. (Yuri Gripas/Reuters)





Republicans accused top U.S. federal law enforcement officials Thursday of withholding important documents from them and demanded details about surveillance tactics during the Russia investigation in a contentious congressional hearing that capped days of mounting partisan complaints.

Underscoring their frustration, Republicans briefly put the hearing on hold so they could approve a resolution on the House floor demanding that the Justice Department turn over thousands of documents by next week.

The House Judiciary Committee hearing marked deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein's first appearance before Congress since an internal Department of Justice report criticizing the FBI's handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation revealed new disparaging text messages among FBI officials about Donald Trump during the 2016 election. FBI director Christopher Wray also appeared before Congress on Thursday.
Republicans on the panel seized on the watchdog report to allege bias by the FBI and to discredit an investigation into potential ties between Russia and the Trump campaign that is now led by special counsel Robert Mueller. They suggested that the Justice Department had conspired against Trump by refusing to produce documents they believe would show improper FBI conduct.
Whatever you got, finish it the hell up.- Trey Gowdy , congressman from South Carolina
"This country is being hurt by it. We are being divided," Rep. Trey Gowdy, a South Carolina Republican, said of Mueller's investigation. Gowdy led a separate two-year investigation into the deadly 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya, and Clinton's role in those attacks as secretary of state.

"Whatever you got," Gowdy added, "finish it the hell up because this country is being torn apart."

Attacks, allegations of bias


Rosenstein, at times raising his voice and pointing his finger, strongly defended himself and the department during the hours-long hearing, saying he was doing his best to balance congressional oversight with the need to preserve the integrity of ongoing investigations. He said despite Republican allegations, he was "not trying to hide anything."

"We are not in contempt of this Congress, and we are not going to be in contempt of this Congress," he said.
The hearing came amid Republican attacks on the Justice Department and allegations of FBI bias against Trump. On Wednesday, lawmakers spent 11 hours behind closed doors grilling Peter Strzok, the FBI agent who worked on both the Clinton and Russia investigations and traded anti-Trump text messages with an FBI lawyer. The inspector general criticized the officials for creating an appearance of impropriety but did not find evidence that bias had tainted the decisions of prosecutors in the Clinton investigation.

Strzok is expected to return to the committee early next month for an open hearing. The FBI lawyer he texted with, Lisa Page, is also expected to talk to lawmakers.

Deadline to turn over documents


The resolution that passed along party lines Thursday demanded that the department turn over by July 6 documents on FBI investigations into Clinton's private email use and Trump campaign ties to Russia.

Both investigations unfolded during the presidential election, causing the FBI — which prides itself on independence — to become entangled in presidential politics in ways that are continuing to shake out.
Republican Mark Meadows, from North Carolina, one of the sponsors of the resolution, did not deny Democratic assertions that the document requests were related to efforts to undercut Mueller's probe.

"Yes, when we get these documents, we believe that it will do away with this whole fiasco of what they call the Russian Trump collusion because there wasn't any," he said on the House floor.
The House judiciary and intelligence panels, which have subpoenaed the documents, want to use the records as part of congressional investigations into the FBI's decision to clear Clinton in the email probe and its opening of an investigation into potential co-ordination between the Trump campaign and Russia.

The Justice Department has already turned over more than 800,000 documents to congressional committees, but the subpoenas are asking for additional materials, including records about any surveillance of Trump campaign associates. Lawmakers have threatened to hold top DOJ officials in contempt or vote to impeach them if the documents aren't turned over.

Heated exchanges


On the floor, lawmakers hurled insults as Republicans said Congress is entitled to whatever it wants.

"We have a petulant Department of Justice defended by a petulant Democratic Party," said Tom Garrett, a representative from Virginia.
We're caught up in this nonsense because they can't get over Hillary Clinton's emails. Get over it!- Jamie Raskin, Democratic representative from Maryland
Democrat Jamie Raskin or Maryland shot back: "We're caught up in this nonsense because they can't get over Hillary Clinton's emails. Get over it!"

Wray and Rosenstein said law enforcement officials have been working diligently to provide the records, though Republicans made clear their dissatisfaction at the pace.

"We have caught you hiding information from Congress," Republican Jim Jordan said at the hearing, an accusation Rosenstein strongly denied.

"I am the deputy attorney general of the United States, OK?" he said. "I'm not the person doing the redacting. I am responsible for responding to your concerns, as I have.

"Whenever you have brought issues to my attention, I have taken appropriate steps to remedy them," he added.

He also dismissed media reports that he had threatened to subpoena staff members of the House Intelligence Committee, saying to laughter, "There's no way to subpoena phone calls."

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Robert Goodlatte, a Republican from Virginia, signaled the hearing's tone in his opening remarks when he complained about the Justice Department's failure to produce all the requested documents.

"The Department of Justice and the FBI are not mentioned in the U.S. Constitution. The president and Congress are," Goodlatte said.

Florida representative Ron DeSantis, a Republican, demanded to know why Rosenstein had not recused himself from overseeing Mueller's investigation into whether Trump had obstructed justice — given Rosenstein's role in laying the groundwork for the firing of FBI director James Comey.

Rosenstein's memo criticizing Comey's handling of the Clinton investigation was initially cited by the White House as justification for his firing.

"I can assure you that if it were appropriate for me to recuse, I'd be more than happy to do so and let somebody else handle this," Rosenstein said.​






Stephen Harper expected to meet Trump's top economic adviser in Washington amid trade tensions

Sources tell CBC News the former prime minister is expected to meet with Larry Kudlow

Former prime minister Stephen Harper is poised to meet with two top Trump administration officials in Washington against a backdrop of fractious talk over tariffs, CBC News has confirmed.

Harper is expected to travel to Washington on Monday, July 2, and has scheduled meetings with Larry Kudlow — the director of the National Economic Council and Trump's go-to economic adviser — and John Bolton, the president's national security adviser, according to multiple sources who spoke to CBC News on the condition of anonymity.

Kudlow, who recently suffered a heart attack but is now back on the job, was one of the president's surrogates who went on TV after the G7 summit in Charlevoix to attack Prime Minister Justin Trudeau personally over his plan to impose retaliatory tariffs on the U.S. Kudlow is one of Trump's most trusted economic advisers.

CTV News first reported Harper's planned meeting with Bolton in Washington, citing details contained in emails the broadcaster had obtained.

Sources told CBC News that Harper, who now works as a consultant after leaving federal politics, personally approached the two officials to ask for a meeting.
Harper has not shied away from wading into the NAFTA talks, offering commentary on TV and at conferences. He has criticized some of the Liberal government's actions on the trade file while defending the NAFTA agreement itself.

Sources say that ahead of the meeting, Bolton phoned the Canadian embassy in Washington to make some arrangements — a call that caught Canadian officials off-guard as they were not expecting such a visit.

Adding to the confusion, say the sources, the White House did not specify which "prime minister" was expected for the meetings; the Americans often use political titles long after a politician has left office. That led some Canadian officials to believe a visit by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had been planned in secret.

Trudeau's foreign policy adviser, John Hannaford, contacted his counterpart in the White House, who apologized and explained it was former prime minister Harper who would be visiting.

That prompted confusion on the part of Trudeau's inner circle, the sources say, as it's customary for past prime ministers to keep their successor in the loop on foreign travel plans of this magnitude.

This was also an issue when Harper himself was in office and he had to contend with former prime minister Jean Chrétien travelling to Russia to meet with President Vladimir Putin during the Crimean crisis. Harper had taken a tough stand against Putin and his incursion into Ukrainian territory.

In addition to his consulting work, Harper meets often with international conservative leaders as chair of the International Democrat Union, an alliance of conservative and centre-right parties founded 35 years ago by Britain's Margaret Thatcher, Germany's Helmut Kohl and then-U.S. president George Bush Sr., among others

Canada readies final tariff list


Relations between Canada and the U.S. have soured considerably in recent weeks after Trump slapped punitive tariffs on Canadian aluminum and steel imports as part of his drive to protect the U.S. industry from what he claims is unfair foreign competition. His administration has sought to justify the tariffs on national security grounds.
A 25-per-cent tariff will be levied on Canadian steel, while a 10 per cent tariff will be applied to aluminum. In response, Canada has vowed to impose $16.5 billion worth of new tariffs on a host of U.S. goods, from lawnmowers to playing cards and felt-tipped pens.

The final list of U.S. goods to be taxed will be released tomorrow by Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland and will take effect as of July 1.

Doug Ford's new Ontario PC government sworn in at Queen's Park

Ceremony officially gives Progressive Conservatives power for first time since 2003

Mike Crawley, Andrea Janus· CBC News· Posted: Jun 29, 2018 4:00 AM ET




Doug Ford has taken his oath at Queen's Park to begin serving as Ontario's new premier. (Frank Gunn/Canadian Press)

Doug Ford and his cabinet are taking their oaths of office at Queen's Park Friday morning, ushering in the province's first Progressive Conservative government in nearly 15 years.

A bagpiper led Ford and the 21 member-strong cabinet into the Ontario legislature shortly before 11 a.m. Ford is now Ontario's 26th premier, following his party's majority win in June.

The formal ceremony, presided over by Lt.-Gov Elizabeth Dowdeswell, is still underway as each cabinet member swears an oath.

Yea Right its a slam dunk for the LIEbranos in Scarborough Agincourt
just like it is on The Rock and for the neocons in Louis Riel's old
stomping grounds. Methinks it is rather obvious why the sneaky lawyer
Jagmeet Singh would not dare to put his name on the ballot in the very
spot he was born. Methinks the big talker needs a safe NDP seat to
find a seat in Parliament. However I truly don't believe there is any
such thing anymore N'esy Pas Mr Mulcair? BTW why haven't you quit yet?

The only close race I see on the 11th is in South Surrey BC  with a
LIEbrano Gordon Hogg versus Kerry-Lynne Findlay Harper's crooked old
boss of the CRA. I truly would prefer that the evil woman Findlay
finds a seat in Parliament again particularly while my lawsuits head
for the Supreme Court. One more LIEbrano whom nobody east of BC has
heard of ain't gonna make any difference to the rest of us whom
"Canada's Natural Governing Party" pretends to protect and serve EH?.

Byelection battle heats up in Scarborough-Agincourt
by Nitish Bissonauth and News Staff

A crucial seat is up for grabs in the Scarborough-Agincourt riding, as
candidates prepare for a byelection on Dec.11.

NDP leader Jagmeet Singh visited the riding, greeting supporters at
the Black Gold Café.

“This is incredible, this is literally where I was born, this has a
nice homecoming feel” said Singh about the reception.

While he doesn’t have a seat in Parliament, Singh says
Scarborough-Agincourt isn’t the place for him to run, despite it being
home turf. Instead he’s endorsing local hopeful Brian Chang, saying
the candidate has history in the area, currently resides in the
community and is engaged with the people.

He told CityNews one of the important concerns in the riding is
affordable housing, criticizing Prime Minster Justin Trudeau’s 10
year, $40 billion national strategy

“Housing crisis is right now, we need immediate action today” said
Singh. “When we have a government announcement that talks about
funding after an election, that’s cynical”

Chang is optimistic that after 30 years Liberal dominance, voters want
an alternative.

“They are not allowed to dominate the discussion, people want another
alternative and that’s what I am” said Chang. “Life is difficult here
in Scarborough-Agincourt, the average income here is 32 thousand
dollars, the poverty line is 28 thousand in Toronto, we’re not too far
off from that”

For him, the main issue in the riding is income inequality and he
plans to address precarious work.

While the NDP met with supporters, Liberal candidate Jean Yip was
hitting the pavement to meet voters door-to-door in the same riding.

She’s running for the seat left vacant by her late husband Arnold
Chan. He lost his battle with cancer in September.Chan first won a
byelection in Scarborough-Agincourt in 2014 and once again in 2015.

Yip wants to focus on seniors, tax cuts and the middle class — issues
she says were also dear to her husband.

“I would like to help him finish his legacy” said Yip, “I feel
connected and I’m happy to represent Scarborough-Agincourt after Dec.
11”

The byelection in Scarborough-Agincourt is just one of four happening
in the country. Voters will be heading to the polls in the ridings of
Battlefords-Lloydminster in Saskatchewan,  Bonavista-Burin-Trinity in
Newfoundland and Labrador and South Surrey-White Rock in British
Columbia

Hey Ken Finlayson you can't say that I did not call while Trudeau "The Younger" and

Prime Minister concludes Sask. tour in Saskatoon
Justin Trudeau visited North Battleford Thursday night before next
week's byelection
CBC News Posted: Dec 08, 2017 9:00 AM CT

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will be stopping over in Saskatoon
Friday after a brief visit to Saskatchewan.

On Thursday, Trudeau visited North Battleford, Sask., for a public
meet-and-greet event with Battlefords-Lloydminster Liberal candidate
Larry Ingram.

The event was held less than a week before a federal byelection in the
riding of Battlefords-Lloydminster. Longtime Conservative MP Gerry
Ritz retired in October, leaving the seat up for grabs.

Other candidates in the riding are Rosemarie Ashley Falk with the
Conservative Party of Canada, Matt Fedler with the New Democratic
Party, Yvonne Potter-Pihach with the Green Party of Canada, and
independent Ken Finlayson.

On Friday, Trudeau will attend private meetings in Saskatoon before
heading back to Ottawa.

Voters in North Battleford head to the polls Dec. 11.

It’s official: Ken Finlayson is running for Parliament as an independent.

Elections Canada’s site has confirmed that Finlayson is on the list of
candidates running in the federal by-election in
Battlefords-Lloydminster.

As of Sunday night the other confirmed candidates on the ballot were
Rosemarie Falk of the Conservatives, Matt Fedler of the NDP, Larry
Ingram of the Liberals and Yvonne Potter-Pihach of the Green Party.
Elections Canada had set a 2 pm Monday deadline for all nominations to
be in.

Finlayson, who has been a rancher and rodeo cowboy among his various
pursuits, had previously attempted to seek the Conservative nomination
but was rejected by the party’s nomination committee.

Afterwards, there were calls by supporters for Finlayson to enter the
race as an independent. In a post on his Facebook campaign page
Sunday, Finlayson stated he had gotten his nomination papers in to
Elections Canada the previous day.

“Some people have smugly told us we "don't have a snowball's chance in
Hell!" as an independent candidate,” Finlayson stated. “Well that
don't change the reasons we're here! Just changes the height of the
hill we got to climb.”

Doug Ford's new Ontario PC government sworn in at Queen's Park

Ceremony officially gives Progressive Conservatives power for first time since 2003

CBC News
Doug Ford sworn in as Ontario's 26th Premier LIVE
00:00LIVE
Premier-designate Doug Ford will be sworn in as Ontario's 26th Premier on Friday at Queen's Park. 0:00


Doug Ford and his cabinet are taking their oaths of office at Queen's Park Friday morning, ushering in the province's first Progressive Conservative government in nearly 15 years.

A bagpiper led Ford and the 21 member-strong cabinet into the Ontario legislature shortly before 11 a.m. Ford is now Ontario's 26th premier, following his party's majority win in June.

The formal ceremony, presided over by Lt.-Gov Elizabeth Dowdeswell, is still underway as each cabinet member swears an oath.

Dowdeswell called the day "an important occasion in the life and history of this province."

"Serving the public is a noble endeavour," she said. "There will undoubtedly be moments of joy and satisfaction, yet also times of challenge."

She urged the incoming government to "be sustained by the optimism that is inherent in your oaths and in the traditions of our parliamentary democracy, as well as by the support and encouragement of family and friends, who proudly join you here today."

More than 1,000 guests have been invited to the outdoor portion of the event, set for 12 p.m., which is also open to the public.

It is the first transition of power between parties in Ontario in nearly 15 years, since the PC government of Ernie Eves made way for the Liberal government of Dalton McGuinty on Oct. 23, 2003. Kathleen Wynne formally resigned on Friday morning.

In her remarks, Dowdeswell thanked Wynne for her five years of service as Ontario's premier, a tribute that was met with warm applause.

Strong PC majority


Ford takes office with a strong majority, having won 76 seats in the June 7 election. He has already announced that the first act of his government after the swearing-in will be to cancel Ontario's cap and trade program to reduce carbon emissions.
That announcement triggered the end of a program to provide Ontario homeowners with rebates on products to improve energy efficiency, such as smart thermostats and new windows.

Other campaign promises Ford and his cabinet could move on quickly include launching an independent audit of provincial finances left behind by the outgoing Liberal government, reviewing Ontario's sex education curriculum and ousting the board of directors of Hydro One.

The Ford transition team has already ordered an indefinite hiring freeze among provincial government ministries.

Ford has not announced a date for the resumption of the Legislature.

When it does sit, the NDP will form the official opposition under Leader Andrea Horwath, with 40 seats. The Liberals hold just seven seats, too few for official party status in the Legislature. Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner won his party's first ever seat in Ontario, in Guelph.

Ontario PC cabinet puts big-name politicians in top roles

Smaller cabinet will be sworn in at Queen's Park on Friday


Premier Doug Ford, centre, has named a number of long-time politicians, including Christine Elliott, left, and Victor Fedeli, right, to his first cabinet. Elliott will serve as Ford's deputy premier. (The Canadian Press)
 


Premier Doug Ford is calling his cabinet an "all-star" team, as a number of big name PCs take on prominent roles in the new government.

The cabinet will govern with a strong majority after the party captured 76 seats in the June 7 election. During the campaign, Ford highlighted the strength of his candidates, many of whom have served as the Official Opposition in recent years.

Among those taking on high-profile posts are:
  • Vic Fedeli will serve as finance minister and chair the cabinet
  • Christine Elliott gets the health portfolio, and will also be Ford's deputy premier
  • Lisa Thompson will handle education
  • Todd Smith will be the government house leader
The 21-person cabinet, including Ford, is being sworn in at Queen's Park on Friday. You can watch that ceremony live.

"We have an all-star team that's ready right now to give the people of Ontario the kind of leadership and direction they deserve," Ford said in a news release, before tweaking a frequent campaign slogan.

"Help is here."

Caroline Mulroney the new AG

Among the other prominent PCs who will serve in cabinet are: Caroline Mulroney, who will become attorney general, Rod Phillips, who will be the environment minister, John Yakabuski, the new transportation minister and Lisa MacLeod, who will be responsible for children, community services and women's issues.

Two-thirds of Ford's cabinet is male. For comparison, Kathleen Wynne's last Liberal cabinet featured 13 women and 16 men.

Ford is also keeping a ministerial responsibility for Indigenous Affairs, although the role is being folded into the portfolio of the new energy minister, Greg Rickford.
Indigenous leaders and others wanted Ford to maintain a minister solely responsible for issues of concern to First Nations, in keeping with a 2007 recommendation of the Ipperwash inquiry.
The NDP, now Ontario's Official Opposition, is set to respond to the PC cabinet picks at 2 p.m. ET.
Here is the full cabinet:
  • Doug Ford — Premier and minister of intergovernmental affairs
  • Christine Elliott — Minister of health and long-term care and deputy premier
  • Caroline Mulroney — Attorney general and minister responsible for Francophone affairs
  • Monte McNaughton — Minister of infrastructure
  • Lisa MacLeod — Minister of children, community and social services and minister responsible for women's issues
  • Lisa Thompson — Minister of education
  • Todd Smith — Minister of government and consumer services, and government house leader
  • Laurie Scott — Minister of labour
  • Peter Bethlenfalvy — President of the Treasury Board
  • Raymond Cho — Minister for seniors and accessibility
  • Steve Clark — Minister of municipal affairs and housing
  • Victor Fedeli — Minister of finance and Chair of cabinet
  • Merrilee Fullerton — Minister of training, colleges and universities
  • Ernie Hardeman — Minister of agriculture, food and rural affairs
  • Sylvia Jones — Minister of tourism, culture and sport
  • Rod Phillips — Minister of the environment, conservation and parks
  • Greg Rickford — Minister of energy, northern development and mines, and minister of Indigenous affairs

Rob, John Carten says, if anyone tells me they can help me with my situation, they're lying to me and wasting my time, what do you say Rob, true or not? I haven't heard from you , I know you've been away, please reply truthfully. I left home today with the intention of filling a, Writ of Summons, A Statement of Claim & An Affidavit with the Supreme Court Of Newfoundland aganist T. Alex Hickman & The RCMP, I didn't & left the building more determined than ever to inform the PUBLIC. On public display, upon entering, a picture of Alex Hickman & The Queen, great start, a list of Supreme Court Judges, Mr Justice R J Halley, X partiner of Halley, Hunt & Hickman, Hon Chief Justice J D Green, a member of the Ocean Ranger Inquiry which white washed the sinking of the Ocean Ranger & said the Oil Companies were not Responsible or Liable Legally for the SO CALLED, ACCIDENT. Most of the other Judges also sat on the inquiry with Alex Hickman, than Chief Justice as Chairman. None of these people would know an Oil Rig from an Oil Delivery Truck. After the Ranger sank, I came home from Tanzania, East Africa, to help 2 sea Captains, start an Offshore Safety Course For the oil rigs, Basic Offshore Survival Training, BOST Course, at the marine institute. I had worked on 4 continents for a company called Helmer Staubo, of Oslo, Norway, a hobby for me was collecting Rig Photos from around the world, one of which was the Ocean Ranger. This rig had one thing completely different from ALL other Semi Submersable Rigs, it's anchor chains were moved up ,on the legs, so the chains were always visablely out of the water, this was done to try to add stability. The sister RIG of the Ocean Ranger is still working , to this day in the Norwegan Sector of thr North Sea, to work in 3 meters, 6 ft. less water than it was designed for, 20 tons of weight had to be removed from the work deck, to compensate for the 3 meters of less water, to prevent it from hitting bottom during a storm, NOT ONLY WAS THE OCEAN RANGER IN 30 METERS LESS WATER THAN IT WAS DESIGNED FOR BUT EXTRA EQUIPMENT WAS ADDED TO THE DECK FOR HALIBURTON TESTING EQUIPMENT. I was showing these pictures in my saftey classes when an order came from CAPT. Jack Strong to remove my Photos from the class room & instruct only from the prepaird text book. After that my teaching career ended & I was black listed from the offshore. I'm told filling my CHARGES with these people, will show them I'm serious about my Charges. If ,after 44 yrs. of reporting & my web sites & 4600 hand outs door to door hasn't convinced them, my spending $40.00 on their corrupt system, so they can further discredit & devour me ,at my expense, will make no difference to them at all BUT $40.00 will give me 400 more handouts to inform the taxpayers they keep in the dark, a total of 5000 & I will stick to MY schedule and allow them to discredit me & many others in my chosen time space .Lisa, I have to thank you very much for helping me with the Forms, they wouldn't be done without you, but I can't afford to COMPLETELY WASTE $40.00, it will be better spent in hand-outs than wasted in their CORRUPT court rooms, they can take me there at their expense anytime they want. I, and most of you know, OUR LEGAL SYSTEM IS FINISHED DEALING JUSTICE, IT IS NOW SELFSERVING ONLY.
Sincerely Sad Canadian

Daily Gleaner | Brent Taylor
As published on page A8 on January 11, 2005

Robichaud made an impact
Brent Taylor
REALITY CHECK

This morning in Moncton Louis Robichaud was given his
final farewell.

He had not been well in recent weeks, but maybe not
everybody knew that. Journalists knew, and had been
preparing for some time. So, when the sad news finally
came last Thursday, New Brunswick's media was ready to
retell the story of the "father of modern New
Brunswick."

All of the papers had extensive coverage, as did the
electronic media.

In helping to prepare a little of that preliminary
work myself, I spent quite a bit of time researching
the career of Louis Robichaud. The more I found, the
more fascinated I became. Being a resident of Quebec
for the entire 10-year reign of Robichaud, I never saw
in person the changes he brought to the province. AND
IT GOES ON BLAH BLAH BLAH….

For you people who’s not familiar with Brent
Taylor?
He’s a former MLA from the C.O.R. Party! I used
to debate Acadian issues with these bigots for years
in the letters to the editor!
The C.O.R. Party was to the Acadian population
like the KKK is to the Blacks! Brent Taylor ran for
the Leadership of the C.O.R. Party in the early 90s
while in Campbellton he made a very very very
Anti-French speech!
We all know that a leopard never changes it spots
and it makes me sick to my stomach seeing this
headline in the Daily Gleaner and of course I never
read this BS anyway but there’s something that I
found very interesting yesterday.
Someone told me that Brent Taylor will run under
the P.C. Banner during the next Provincial Election!
Well? I’ll tell you one thing right now!!! If
Bernard Lord allows that Bigot to run??? Well? I’m
going to be front and center with this issue!
The P.C Party shouldn’t associate themselves with
a man like Brent Taylor. Mind you, I met and have some
good friends from the C.O.R. Party!
As a matter of fact, I had a good chat with Max
White during the P.C. Annual meeting in Fredericton a
few months ago!
But I’ll never forget Brent Taylor speech and I’m
very surprised that he has his own column in the
Irving Papers???
Why is that now???
The Telegraph Journal stop printing my letters
but they allowed a bigot to spread his views? Why is
that now? Who knows?
I crashed their first annual convention in 1991
when Danny Cameron held a news conference telling the
Government of the day < Frank McKenna > to removed the
Acadian flag from on top of the Legislature.
My actions went across Canada. There were 1,000
members at that convention and I am not afraid to
speak out against hatred!!!
I was very surprised to see J.K. Irving at Louis
Robichaud Funeral yesterday!
Of course, I always like J.K. anyway but it’s his
son J.D that I don’t care for!
Hey? Any Billionaire who supports Racism? There’s
definitely something wrong with this Picture.
I told J.D. himself that he had a very racist

The Rise and Fall of the New Brunswick CoR Party, 1988-1995
Geoffrey Martin

At the time this article was written Geoffrey Martin was teaching at Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick
This article traces the rise and fall of one of Canada's recently-formed populist, "New right" parties, the Confederation of Regions Party of New Brunswick. It shows how and why the party was formed and why it collapsed in the last provincial election. COR-NB was a programmatic party based on political protest, which advocated a libertarian ideology. The article argues that partisan realignment is possible in "traditional" areas like New Brunswick, but that the anger that led to the formation of the party eventually turned inward and destroyed the party's coherence.
On September 11, 1995, the saga of the Confederation of Regions Party of New Brunswick (COR-NB) ended, when the party received 7% of the votes and no seats in the provincial election. This represented a major collapse of a party, which in the 1991 provincial election polled 87,256 votes (21% of the total), took 8 seats, and the position of Official Opposition in the Legislative Assembly. As it turned out, COR-NB's success in 1991 took place in a "populist moment" in New Brunswick politics, in which a number of factors came together to enable a new party, which rejected "Official Bilingualism" and many of the basic principles of the political system, to achieve significant success in a province with almost no tradition of third-party activity. COR's collapse in the recent election shows that this populist moment has passed, along with the other factors that made for COR-NB's success. For the forseeable future New Brunswick politics has returned to its historic pattern of two-party competition among small-c conservative elites.
The COR Party of New Brunswick
COR-NB was formed in 1989, less than two years after the "McKenna sweep" of 1987, in which the Liberal Party under Frank McKenna won every single seat in the legislature. In the 1991 election, COR-NB won its seats in the South and Central parts of the province, and its support was also disproportionately in rural, sparsely populated areas. COR took advantage of the voters' underlying concern about bilingualism. It did this chiefly in the former heartland of the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party.
There are five central points that describe the party's platform and principles.
The party was, first of all, a programmatic party, not a brokerage party. It had a fixed programme which its activists were unwilling to compromise.
Second, it was a protest party with roots in a single issue, that of "Official Bilingualism." The party was essentially an "ethnic party" representing a segment of English New Brunswick which was extremely dissatisfied, to the point of anger, over the direction of public policy in the province and the country.1
Third, like Social Credit in Alberta, COR-NB was a populist party and it placed high priority on changing the system in addition to changing specific public policies. This populism was represented most significantly in the inversion of the political hierarcy: For COR activists, elected members were responsible to the Electorate first, then the Party, and only finally the Leader.
Fourth, ideologically the party is "classical liberal" in the nineteenth century sense, which today is best referred to as libertarian.
Fifth and finally, like Social Credit in the past, in class terms the COR Party is petty bourgeois and lower-middle class in its orientation.
This final point is important and too often neglected, and is also relevant to other Canadian political experiments, especially the Reform Party of Canada. In its heyday the COR Party was dominated by middle-income and small-business people, professionals, and the self-employed. The middle class is the backbone of advanced industrial societies and pays more than its share of taxes and is most likely to feel put upon and unable to "get ahead." The party went beyond appealing only to "middle-income groups." It was also a reflection of those individuals who have an intermediate amount of control over their work, including professionals, small business people, and independent commodity producers, like farmers, woodlot owners, fishers and the self-employed in general. These characteristics are important because this class sometimes allies with the working class, sometimes with the middle class, and sometimes is alienated from both.
Political parties based purely on the middle class and petty bourgeoisie are notoriously hard to hold together. As C. B. MacPherson notes, "the petite-bourgeoisie cannot be cohesive" in politics because the individualism of members of this class divides it and splinters it apart.2
In electoral terms the COR Party was not a party of big business or the affluent, even if its programme, especially the provisions that weaken government, would seem to provide disproportionate benefits to large corporate interests. Yet high income groups and wealth holders appear to have stuck with the Liberals and PCs. This is symbolized by the close association of the powerful McCain family with the Liberal Party, and the fact that one of the McCain spouses, Margaret Norrie McCain, was appointed to a five-year term as the province's Lieutenant-Governor in 1994. The Irving interests, both individual and corporate, are harder to identify with certainty. The descendants of the founder of the Irving empire take little public role in partisan politics, seeming to prefer to influence the provincial government of the day regardless of its political stripe. Judging from the 1993 federal election and the 1995 provincial election, the Irving preference runs towards the "old line" parties and not populist alternatives further to the right or the left. In the 1993 federal campaign, the Irving interests made financial contributions to both the PC and Liberal campaign funds, and not to Reform, the National Party or the NDP.3
The Formation of the COR Party
The McKenna Liberals completely dominated New Brunswick politics from 1987 to 1989, and New Brunswick was effectively a one-party province during that time. Yet the COR Party rose much faster, less than two years after the 1987 election, than is usually the case with third parties. First of all, this rapid rise is explained by the seriousness and longevity of New Brunswick's high unemployment and economic hardship over the last 25 years. The Progressive Conservative Party was wiped out in 1987 as a repudiation of Richard Hatfield, whose longevity in power and personal legal troubles turned the electorate against him. Further, the Progressive Conservative Party was slow to rebuild, and the leader it finally elected, Barbara Baird Filliter, was generally regarded as ineffective. The rapidity of the rise of COR-NB was also a response to the McKenna government's desire to increase bilingualism in the civil service, an effort which the government has since admitted it has not succeeded in achieving. Finally, for many activists and voters, federal and provincial politics are not separate, and one reason for the rise of the COR-NB was the activists' distaste for the Mulroney government, another handicap for the provincial PC Party.
A neglected aspect of the rise of COR-NB was its genesis as a social movement called the New Brunswick Association of English-Speaking Canadians, usually shortened to the English Speaking Association (ESA). The ESA was formed in the early 1980s to oppose the extension of bilingualism in the provincial government, something that it was effective in preventing. The ESA was like a party-in-waiting with a membership and an agenda, so that activists were easy to mobilize once the decision to form a new party was taken in the late 1980s. By that time individuals involved in the organization began to question their effectiveness as a lobby group. "We brought our concerns to government but it just became frustrating because month after month we were bringing the same concerns, getting the same answers, and really not getting anywhere," said Arch Pafford, COR-NB's first president, first leader, and an ESA activist.4
The ESA was a single-issue social movement and the COR Party inherited ESA activists and this issue. Perhaps because of its ties to the (now-defunct) federal COR Party, COR-NB quickly developed similar New Right policies, including opposition to the Meech Lake Accord and support for parliamentary reform, tax reform, privatization, and deregulation. While party activists claim the COR Party is not a one-issue party, the party, like the ESA before it, would never had been formed without Anglophone discontent over the perceived lack of jobs for Anglophones, and Official Bilingualism, two phenomena that COR-NB activists always linked together. As Sue Calhoun has written, "If someone is pushed about why they joined COR, the answer is, inevitably, because of language."5 Just as the ESA was a protest vehicle, the COR Party was a protest party because of its desire to overturn the status quo and because of its dependence on a single issue, that of language policy.
The COR Party in Decline
By the fall of 1993, two years after the party's breakthrough in the 1991 election, the COR Party was clearly in decline, manifested in the party's slide in public opinion polls as well as internal bickering. By 1994 the party consistently polled between 3-7% of decided voters in various polls (down from 21% in the 1991 election) and its membership had plunged from around 20,000 in 1991 to approximately 2500 by the end of 1994. To some extent the conditions for the decline of the party mirror the conditions under which it arose.
In this section some of the reasons for the party's decline will be outlined, but we will concentrate on one of the root reasons for the party's problems, that of the incompatibility between the party's: a) populism; b) free market ideology, and; c) its role as a political party and Official Opposition in the existing system. In contrast to many members of the party, the argument presented here is that COR's problem was not just a matter of finding a new or better leader.
The party ultimately collapsed because of the membership's approach to politics and because a section of the party was unwilling to conform to the existing party system.
There are straight-forward reasons for the party's decline that should be delineated briefly. First, the departure of Brian Mulroney from national politics, and the collapse of the federal PCs in the 1993 federal election, made it possible for small-c conservatives to return to the provincial PC Party. Second, the COR Party suffered a double blow from the Charlottetown Constitutional Accord referendum in 1992. Since the accord was defeated nationally, constitutional and language issues disappeared for a time from the political agenda, which hurt the COR Party's ability to grab public attention. Even the province's constitutionalization of Bill 88, which declared the equality of the Francophone and Anglophone communities in the province, and the 1994 Québec election, did not excite widespread public attention. The second blow was that COR-NB led the anti-accord side in New Brunswick in 1992 and yet the pro-accord side won convincingly in the province, all of which undermined COR-NB's claim that it represented some kind of "silent majority."
Third, the provincial PC Party gained new credibility in the last two years because of the effectiveness of its leader, Dennis Cochrane, who was elected to that position and to the Legislative Assembly in 1991. Even the sudden resignation of Mr. Cochrane in the spring of 1995, and his replacement by former Mulroney cabinet minister Bernard Valcourt, did not revive COR's fortune's. Fourth, Frank McKenna's Liberal government was rightward leaning during its second mandate (1991-95), given its attitudes toward individual and provincial self-reliance, cuts to social and health services, and its emphasis on job creation in the private sector. This also hurt the COR Party because like a competent brokerage politician, McKenna's rightward move undercut COR-NB support, and this left most opponents of the government in the centre (supporting the PCs) or to the left (supporting the NDP, led by Elizabeth Weir).
All of these are important reasons for the decline of the party, but we should concentrate on another reason, the incompatibility of the party's self-identity and its role in the system. The party tried to combine populism and free market economics, two ideologies that are often in conflict because the interest of the "common man" is often in conflict with the interests of even small business, let alone the larger firms that dominate the New Brunswick political economy. Like the supporters of the United Farmers and Social Credit in Alberta, COR-NB members believed in the value of the individual and of free enterprise, even though the concentration of capital and high levels of unemployment are the result of the particular form of resource-based capitalism that exists in New Brunswick. The COR Party started as a "revolt against the system," though by 1993 the party increasingly internalized the system and so the revolt turned inward, with all of the venom once reserved only for the New Brunswick Society of Acadians and the established parties.
As the economy and job situation in New Brunswick improved somewhat after the recession of the early 1990s, COR-NB lost momentum. (Instead of scapegoating Acadians as they did in the late 1980s, in 1995 New Brunswick Anglophones were more likely to feel aggrieved at the Liberal federal government for tightening the Unemployment Insurance rules in the 1994 budget, or for its gun control initiative of 1995.)
There is a serious structural problem underlying these internal conflicts, in the form of an ideological conflict between Board control and caucus control of the party. As has been stated above, the party policy is that an elected member is responsible to the electorate first, the party second, and the leader last. Yet under its constitution the COR Party—and not the elected caucus—selected the leader and the Board of Directors could call a leadership convention, which inevitably gave the party control over the elected members.
Greg Hargrove (MLA-York North) said in 1993 that the Board overstepped its authority in trying to dump then-leader Danny Cameron because the Board is answerable to the membership while the caucus is responsible to the electorate. By this line of reasoning, the membership can elect a leader but cannot remove a leader, which ultimately sounds like the "old-line parties" that the COR Party criticized. This suggests an inherent contradiction in the party's inversion of the "Leader-Party-Electorate" hierarchy, because elected members cannot be responsible to the electorate first given the party's power to remove the party leader by calling a leadership convention.
Conclusion
COR-NB was a right-of-centre protest party that picked up on the tendency of many New Brunswick Anglophones to blame their economic woes on Official Bilingualism, big government, and "special interest groups." The COR Party went into the vacuum left by the collapse of the provincial PCs, aided by the general weakness of political opposition in McKenna's first term and the unpopularity of the Mulroney government in the Atlantic region. The political culture of New Brunswick was, for a brief period, not as traditional as many observers claim, because a significant segment of the electorate proved that they were willing to try a political alternative to the two dominant parties. By making the COR Party the Official Opposition, the voters showed that they were prepared to forgo, both as individuals and as constituencies, the benefits of having a member on the government side of the house.
The COR Party ultimately declined because of the contradiction between its anti-party populism and the realities of operating a political party in the existing party system. This essay also shows the risks of building a new party based on participatory and populist principles when it must function in a "democratic" political system that remains hierarchical and discourages active, meaningful, mass participation in the process of governing between elections. With the election of 1995, the voters have again accepted the elitist political system, in which a government is judged based on its results—the "bottom line"—and not on its style.
The COR Party was formed by a delicate coalition of populists, anti-francophone activists, and traditional conservatives. This coalition has shattered, and it is unlikely that it will come back together in the near future. It may take a generation to rebuild it. There is some possibility that populism will make itself felt in the coming years, if people increasingly feel alienated from New Brunswick's McKenna government and from the Chrétien government in Ottawa. The key question is whether any political party can take advantage of this populist discontent without itself being consumed by its fires.

Prime Minister Paul Martin announced today the renewed mandate of the Task Force on Seasonal Work. The Task Force will evaluate the challenges born by seasonal industries while looking into the needs of workers and communities that depend on them and provide advice on areas for possible action in the future.

“This government places great importance on hearing from those lives that are directly impacted by our policies, including our seasonal workers. Our Caucus has been extremely active in making the sector’s opinions known, and will continue to play an important role in further examining those views,” said Prime Minister Paul Martin.

“We are facing particularly challenging times in one of our economy’s strongest sectors and I look forward to working in collaboration with Parliamentarians and all Canadians to find solutions.” 

The Task Force will examine;
  • the specific needs of seasonal industries and workers in the area of skills development, life-long learning, and literacy;
  • ways to promote greater economic diversity and stronger local economies, particularly in rural and remote communities across Canada;
  • the support required to help seasonal work dependent communities to adapt to seize opportunities provided by the new knowledge-based global economy;
  • ways of lowering barriers to regional and interprovincial labour mobility;
  • how to align income support programs such as Employment Insurance and Provincial Social Assistance Programs to improve income support, while also promoting full, year-round participation in the labour force;
  • ways of addressing the challenges and opportunities offered by temporary foreign workers;
  • the potential role for government in encouraging new approaches to community development, i.e. the `social economy` ;
  • an assessment of the opportunities and challenges specific to seasonal economies in promoting the safeguard of our natural environment;

The Task Force will deliver its report to the Prime Minister by November 2004.

Members of the Prime Minister`s Task Force on Seasonal Work include;

       Do you know of anyone taking bets that I will live until October 1st? Maybe I will give the bookies recorded on the tapes a call and fix the game to hedge my bets. What say you? I have three bucks that I will bet you on the side that says I do. To be fair I have let some of the bastards in Beantown aware of the game to make it a more even bet for you. I will give it to the Canadian Consulate in Beantown if you are game to take the bet.
 
       I just called your office and hour or so ago and referred to your recent letter in answer to my friend Byron Prior's years of concerns. I also asked if you were a lawyer. The obvious question I wish to ask you is whether or not the RCMP are under federal juristion. When they dropped the ball and failed to investigate legitmate complaints going back over forty years, should not Parliamment ask for a Royal Commission to investigate Byron Prior's concerns just as Mr. Arar now has to investigate his matters? As for me I don't want one but I am willing to testify on Mr, Arar's or on Byron's behalf. I just want the truth to be known by all as I go about my business of torturing lawyers with the awful truth about themselves in order that they may fall on their own swords. I am having way more fun than Byron or Mr. Arar could dream of but I know that truth and justice would at least make them happy.
 
     I would think the issue of bringing Byron allegations into a Parliamentry investigation could be easily resolved by asking a man who was awarded the Order of Canada so show enough integrity to allow a simple blood test in order to prove Byron's allegations false. If Byron's allegations prove to be true by Hickman's denial of a blood test or the results of one then many heads should roll throughout Parliament and the RCMP for failing to uphold the Public Trust and the law.I now realize that it ain't important if you Ms. Pilon are a lawyer or not because your boss Irwin Cotler certainly is as are his bosses, Anne McLellan and Paul Martin. Apparently everybody was comfortable with the answer you gave to my friend. Lets see how they feel about your answer to me once I serve the man in Beantown that speaks for us all down here. If don't get an answer in writing by my wife's birthday I will send the Queen a summons for her to answer and i don't think many Yankees will care if i do. (excepting of course lawyers) Ms Pilon please feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I beleive the following words are yours.
 
      In my response to your words to my friend I will deliver many documentsto another lawyer Ronald A. Irwin employed by Parliament to speak for Canadians in Boston. Some of them will iclude documents delivered to the Leutenant Governor Roberts. That man had Byron Prior sign a very interesting document years ago that should be brought into the public view because it concerns the actions of the MP Bill Matthews. Don't try to tell me that is not of federal concern.
 
     By the recent flood of letters sent to me dated on or about Setember 3rd, it appears that many Canadian politically appointed lawyers are rather surprised that I managed to escape the clutches of Attorney General Ashcroft and his cohorts within the DHS and stand in order on Sept 3rd and file many FBI tapes in the Public Record. Apparently Ronald A. Irwin doesn't give a damn about my Safety just like Anne McLellan and Wayne Easter didn't.I know that he is immune from prosecution in the USA but I can certainly complain of him in Canada. What say you Ms. Pilon?
 
      Whereas you Ms. Pilon seem to have all the answers, I must ask you a few questions. When I sue Her Majesty the Queen in the USA, do I served the summons upon Ronald A. Irwin? He does speak for her here in Boston correct? If not upon whom do I serve the documents? Furthermore can I call Ronald A. Irwin to testify in my defense or can he simply continue to ignore me? How do I as a Canadian citizen begin the process of seeing him removed from his office? As I write this I am trying hard to inspire the NDP to cause a confidence vote. October 6th should be an interesting day in Canada particularly if I am allowed to stand in Dorchester District Court on Octber 1st in the USA.
 
      Mere minutes ago I received by US Mail irrefuttable proof of former Prime Ministers Brian Mulroney and Jean Chretien malice towards my family and I. I had expected as much byway of an email notofication from Coldwell Bankers last week yesterday while I stood in court in Norfolk County to argue the very lawyer that began the actions on behalf of criminals in Plymouth County the Clerks offfice of Plymouth County mailed certified proof of the court's willingness to assist in fraud, larceny and perjury. The Massachuseets Registy of Motor Vehicles is threatening to take our drivers licenses for not willing to pay exise tax on vehicles stolen from our own yard by the State and this after I had notified all their lawyers of the fraud etc.
 
    Whereas many of my concerns involve Securities Fraud I believe that many Canadians should be made well aware of my concerns and of the sort of people that safeguard thei investments. If anyone has any questions perhaps they should seek the counsel of Robert C. Pozen of Boston a director of Bell Canada Inc. and an authority on Mutual Fund issues and a former legal counsel for the SEC. If you are wondering about the realestate sale I am referring to,  perhaps you should confer with Francis Galvin of Massachusetts or John R. Buckley Jr. the Plymouth County Register of Deeds whom will seeks reelection shortly. I will be suing those bastards in federal court in the USA in short order along with Brian Mulroney and many lawyers within Cendant Corp. You all will be invited to participate in the prosecution of an necessary complaint either as witnesses or litigants against me. These bastards made the sale of our property seem to be legal five months after our property was stolen and destroyed without due process of law in order to protect the interests of many a crooked lawyer in Canada and the USA.
 
       Feel free to argue me but you really should wait until Ronald A. Irwin receives his correspondence from me. One last question do you think you can trust yyour yankee friends to protect your interests when I start bringing up the subject of murder? Think fast. I have already filed some of the evidence in a couple of courts. Everybody knows there is no honour amongst theives. Ask T. Alex Hickman or John Crosbie or dig up Joey Smallwood and watch him grinning from the grave. Alas we all knew Joey too well.

Barry looks like I guessed right eh? You really should stand with me in court on Oct 1st and at least testify as to why the criminal complaint against me involves federal issues.I don't care what your partners think it is my ass that is on the line that is why I gave your some of the wiretap tapes perhaps you should make certain that someone I respect receives Three of them right away and simply send her the contents of my mail to Dane M. Shulman but save the envelope so that I can prove that I did not go his office on April fools day but merely employed the US Postal Service.
   
 Hey Byron would you like me to sue the RCMP in Newfoundland? The bastards gave me their final answer on September 3rd as well. I could call you and Ms. Pilon to testify

Mr. Byron Prior

Dear Mr. Prior:

    On behalf of the Honourable Irwin Cotler, Minister of Justice and Attorney
General of Canada, I acknowledge receipt of your correspondence involving
allegations of sexual assault. The office of the Honourable Bill Graham,
then Minister of Foreign Affairs, as well as former Member of Parliament
Mr. Dennis Mills, also forwarded your concerns to Minister Cotler. I apologize
for the delay in responding.

    Allegations of criminal offences should be directed to the police. While
the Parliament of Canada is responsible for enacting criminal law, the
administration of justice in a province, including police services and the
prosecution of Criminal Code offences, is the responsiblility of the
provincial governments. Neither Minister Cotler nor any official of the
federal government can have any involvement in this matter.

   Thank you for expressing your concerns.

                           Yours Sincerely,

                                                Ginette Pilon
                                                Manager
                                                Ministerial Correspondence Unit

Yes Frenchy (aka Charles Leblanc) I did get your silly slam about comparing me to to a dog. The thing is it is no insult. I compare myself to a mangy old guard dog. Ask Brad Green and maybe he will show you the letter I sent him. I am not impressed that you made an Irving paper. I have had far better coverage than you and trust me they hate me more than they do you. Ask Frank McKenna. Have you got around to asking your favorite priest where Cardinal Law went after I filed my affidavit on Dec. 12th/02? Watch the priest's eyes when he answers you. Never mind laughing at my plight Frenchy. Did you ever think the confession booth is built the way it is so that you could not see the priests laughing at you?
     If you really want to get the scoop on things ask Carl why he is no longer with CBC and why he don't say shit about me long ago. Remember when I called you from the camp Carl in November of 2002 and asked you to get Henrik to call me? Don't deny it because I had a witnesses there who had suggested that I call you and I have my cell phone records as well. How does it feel to be a part of an interesting story Carl? 
  As for you Carl you can just say hey to our friends Henrik Tonning and Bill Dalton for me and tell them I am still pissed off at them. All of you smiling bastards know I ain't no bullshitter because it takes one to know one. 
     As for you Mr. Vaughn and Mr. Richard perhaps you should get together and share the material that Charles Leblanc gave you before the shit hits the fan. Do you understand the meaning of the word Conspiracy? If not call the US Attorney Michael J. Sullivan in Boston and ask him to explain. He is such a good Catholic boy that he edited out Cardinal Law from my complaint about religious freedom. Now thats funny because after he did so Charles J. Kickham Jr. did it again. Are you still laughing fellas? Watch out for my next complaint

Re: Corruption

Sir and Madam,
Please find enclosed exactly the same material served upon New Brunswick’s Lieutenant-Governor, Hermenegilde Chiasson and many others today. The copy of wiretap tape numbered 139 is served upon you in confidence as officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated.
There is no need to be long winded with you two people. I can prove contact with each of you and your associates many times. I know that you are expecting this material and why I am providing it to you for your review. Not only will I be mentioning your names today to the Police Commission but you names can be found in various places within my documents. I feel that you are entitled to review the material and I am entitled to expect you to act ethically and with integrity as would befit an officer of the court. What you will do with your newfound knowledge of crime? Please send your response to this letter to the address below. I can no longer linger in New Brunswick and wait for politicians to find the time to uphold the Public Trust.

Byron is a witness to many things that have been covered up for over forty years. The RCMP are involved. It appears that CSIS(Canadian Secret Service stole the RCMP mail) to protect the former Minister of Juctice and the Present Minister of Justice as well as the LT Gov as some sort of national secret. It is really hard to explain but I tried to tell you the other day. Look at the stuff I gave ya. the Minister of Juctice T. Alex Hickman that raped Byron's 12 year old sister and the Present Member of Parliament Bill Matthews who raped his thirteen year old sister. Both of whom made them pregnant and their kids are walking around as Byron's kin helped cover up the Ocean Ranger Bulshit for former president Bush and his buddies when he was vice president It is really really deep.The Lt Gov was Matthews lawyer when he was working for John Crosbie, Brian Mulroney's Minister of Finance. It goes on and on. Email won't do. Twice as many men died on the ocean ranger than Indians hve died on the reservation since Leonard was arrested. Byron was on the drilling rig that killed the Cod back in 1981. The whole fishing industry was killed because of unsafe oil exploration. the Martimes are sitting on the second biggest oil fields in the world. If you had come to see me up home I could have shown you capped oil wells from the 1930's We are next to New England had they are running gas lines down here now. I told you this is really really big. And I ain;t said dick yet.

Hey Tom
        I heard through the grapevine that Constable John Rochewants to hassle my friend Byron Prior over some very truthful flyers he handed out. Don’t you think you should talk to me first about the material of mine that Lieutenant Governor Roberts sent you? I asked him to send to his boss Adrienne Clarkson but idiot picked you instead. So i sent her the stuff myself before the Leutenant Governor in New Brunswick tried to act honest. I do not have to send you hard copy you already have it. Tell me what will you do with the copy of wiretap tape numbered 139?
        You should know as well as I that problems with the RCMP fall under Federal Jurisdiction. I know John Crosbie and diddler Hickman know it but trust that I will look forward to arguing with you about it. Don’t you think you should act ethically and call me quickly before I bring up your name in court on October 1st as being in cahoots with the FBI in Boston? I called Gerry Lynch's office and left him my number. Perhaps you should call Bolduc Clement of the Police Commission in Fredericton and ask for a copy of the tape of the meeting I had with him in August if you don't wish to speak to me. Byron and Jim Case are mentioned on the tape and I already have my copy. I will be filing it in the Public Record down in Boston. If I do not hear from you by October 1st I will consider you to be a conspirator against me. Say hey to Jim Case and Danny Williams for me will ya?

Rob, John Carten says, if anyone tells me they can help me with my situation, they're lying to me and wasting my time, what do you say Rob, true or not? I haven't heard from you , I know you've been away, please reply truthfully. I left home today with the intention of filling a, Writ of Summons, A Statement of Claim & An Affidavit with the Supreme Court Of Newfoundland aganist T. Alex Hickman & The RCMP, I didn't & left the building more determined than ever to inform the PUBLIC. On public display, upon entering, a picture of Alex Hickman & The Queen, great start, a list of Supreme Court Judges, Mr Justice R J Halley, X partiner of Halley, Hunt & Hickman, Hon Chief Justice J D Green, a member of the Ocean Ranger Inquiry which white washed the sinking of the Ocean Ranger & said the Oil Companies were not Responsible or Liable Legally for the SO CALLED, ACCIDENT. Most of the other Judges also sat on the inquiry with Alex Hickman, than Chief Justice as Chairman. None of these people would know an Oil Rig from an Oil Delivery Truck. After the Ranger sank, I came home from Tanzania, East Africa, to help 2 sea Captains, start an Offshore Safety Course For the oil rigs, Basic Offshore Survival Training, BOST Course, at the marine institute. I had worked on 4 continents for a company called Helmer Staubo, of Oslo, Norway, a hobby for me was collecting Rig Photos from around the world, one of which was the Ocean Ranger. This rig had one thing completely different from ALL other Semi Submersable Rigs, it's anchor chains were moved up ,on the legs, so the chains were always visablely out of the water, this was done to try to add stability. The sister RIG of the Ocean Ranger is still working , to this day in the Norwegan Sector of thr North Sea, to work in 3 meters, 6 ft. less water than it was designed for, 20 tons of weight had to be removed from the work deck, to compensate for the 3 meters of less water, to prevent it from hitting bottom during a storm, NOT ONLY WAS THE OCEAN RANGER IN 30 METERS LESS WATER THAN IT WAS DESIGNED FOR BUT EXTRA EQUIPMENT WAS ADDED TO THE DECK FOR HALIBURTON TESTING EQUIPMENT. I was showing these pictures in my saftey classes when an order came from CAPT. Jack Strong to remove my Photos from the class room & instruct only from the prepaird text book. After that my teaching career ended & I was black listed from the offshore. I'm told filling my CHARGES with these people, will show them I'm serious about my Charges. If ,after 44 yrs. of reporting & my web sites & 4600 hand outs door to door hasn't convinced them, my spending $40.00 on their corrupt system, so they can further discredit & devour me ,at my expense, will make no difference to them at all BUT $40.00 will give me 400 more handouts to inform the taxpayers they keep in the dark, a total of 5000 & I will stick to MY schedule and allow them to discredit me & many others in my chosen time space .Lisa, I have to thank you very much for helping me with the Forms, they wouldn't be done without you, but I can't afford to COMPLETELY WASTE $40.00, it will be better spent in hand-outs than wasted in their CORRUPT court rooms, they can take me there at their expense anytime they want. I, and most of you know, OUR LEGAL SYSTEM IS FINISHED DEALING JUSTICE, IT IS NOW SELFSERVING ONLY.

DFO closes another fishing area in northern N.B. after right whale sighting

Fishermen have until June 26 to remove gear in snow crab grounds


To date 75 North Atlantic right whales have been spotted by observers who are making daily flights over 460,000 square kilometres of ocean as part of the marine mammal surveillance program. (Center for Coastal Studies)
 
Another fishing area in the Gulf of St. Lawrence has been closed by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans after North Atlantic right whales were spotted.

The latest closure in extends the no-fish zone farther east, well into the middle of the Gulf.
Fishermen have until Tuesday at 3 p.m. to remove any fishing gear in the area.
Maritime Fishermen's Union president Carl Allen says this closure of one smaller area is not overly concerning as much of the quota has already been reached.

"When you look at the location and where it is, it's out on the snow crab grounds and it's not of a huge concern at this point of the game because I think, at this point, we're over 90 per cent of the quota is caught."

Some individual fishermen have already filled their quota and are finished, he said.

"It's not of huge consequence considering the location of where it's at and the timing of it."
But Allen said fishermen must still cope with the "complex protocols" that accompany every closure order.

"Every time we get an email with notice to harvesters, alerting us to another closure, it's like those few seconds that it takes to load the map up to see where the closure is, are like the longest few seconds in your life some days."

This is the seventh closure of a fishing area over the last month in the waters off northern New Brunswick that has forced crab fishermen and lobster fishermen to move their fishing gear to other areas.

A fishing area was also closed June 18 in the Bay of Fundy after a right whale was spotted there.
All  the closures still remain in effect until further notice.

18 right whale deaths


Since January 2017, there have been 18 deaths of North Atlantic right whales in U.S. and Canadian waters — 12 off the Canadian coast and six off the U.S.

To date, there are only 100 breeding females remaining in a population of about 450 North Atlantic right whales.

Up to 75 right whales have been spotted in the southern part of the Gulf of St. Lawrence so far this year, officials said.

The fishery closure is just one of the measures taken by the department to try to save North Atlantic right whales. New rules also require ships to slow down in some areas.

Allen said he feels the general consensus is the right whales being in the area is more of a trend than an anomaly.

​"I think this is something we will be dealing with year in and year out. In the future we're going to have to come up with some more thought out plans."

This includes not closing the static closure zone too early so the area outside it doesn't get overfished or exploited year after year.

"That static closure is worth 25 per cent of the tack last year. That's a huge portion of the crab that comes out of the water and if we can't have access to that you run that risk of you might actually collapse that resource."

Allen said MFU will have to sit with DFO again to discuss how it can be done in 2019 so the objectives of not entangling right whales but have a fishery that is better managed.

DFO orders fisheries closure in Bay of Fundy after right whale sighting

Lobster fishermen fear for livelihood in wake of Monday’s announcement


 Colin McPhail· CBC News· Posted: Jun 18, 2018

The federal government announced Monday evening the first temporary fisheries closure in the Bay of Fundy as a result of a North Atlantic right whale sighting.

The area, just east of Grand Manan, will be closed to fixed-gear fishing activities starting at 11:59 p.m. Thursday, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans said in a statement. It said the closure, which affects lobster, crab, groundfish, herring and mackerel licenses, will remain in place until further notice.
The Grand Manan Basin is a critical habitat area for the whales.

It's believed to be the first closure of its kind ever in the bay, according to Laurence Cook, chairman of the Grand Manan Fishermen's Association lobster advisory board.

Cook was busy fielding calls and texts from "angry and upset" members after government informed the association around 6 p.m. Monday, he said.

The association has been closely following the tension surrounding a series of closures in waters off northeastern New Brunswick after dozens of whale sightings in the area. Frustration is mounting with hundreds of fishermen concerned for their livelihood.

Those sentiments are now being shared with their counterparts in the island community off New Brunswick's southern coast.

'It's a massive hit'


About 40 boats, roughly a third of the Grand Manan fleet, will be impacted, Cook said, estimating about 150 workers — on and off shore— could be affected as they enter the "most prosperous time of the season."

"The lobster is the engine that drives Grand Manan's economy," he said. "It's a massive hit."
Cook said he was holding his breath after a right whale was spotted off Grand Manan on Saturday.
The association argued its case with DFO officials in Dartmouth on Monday before Ottawa made the final decision. Cook said their unblemished track record to avoid harming whales fell on deaf ears.
In 2006, fishermen voluntarily developed a mitigation strategy to not disturb whales, he said. That involved reporting whale movements and modifying equipment to reduce the chance of entanglements.

"It isn't fair for the government to shut us down because crab gear 1,000 kilometres away killed two right whales last year," he said.

19 dead whales


Necropsies on seven of the whales that died last year showed four died of blunt force trauma from collisions with ships, while two more appeared to die from being entangled in fishing gear.

Since January 2017, there have been 18 deaths of North Atlantic right whales in U.S. and Canadian waters — 12 off the Canadian coast and six off the U.S. A whale carcass found last week in Virginia is the 19th.

Last year 17 North Atlantic right whales died in Canadian and U.S. waters. Another two have been found dead off the U.S. coast this year. (Shane Fowler/CBC)
 
To date, there are only 100 breeding females remaining in a population of about 450 North Atlantic right whales.

Up to 75 right whales have been spotted in the southern part of the Gulf of St. Lawrence so far this year, officials said.

Since the beginning of the fishing season for lobster, snow crab and other species, the federal government has closed six fishing areas because of the presence of whales. More closures are scheduled to come into effect Thursday.

The fishery closure is just one of the measures taken by the department to try to save North Atlantic right whales. New rules also require ships to slow down in some areas.

Federal Fisheries Minister Dominic LeBlanc met with representatives of the Maritime Fishermen's Union in Moncton last Friday but did not agree to relax the closures.

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.

Polls give Justin Trudeau's Liberals little to celebrate this Canada Day

Conservatives in Quebec and the NDP in Ontario put pressure on the Liberals


Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party is effectively tied with the Conservatives in the polls. (Graham Hughes/Canadian Press)


It's their third Canada Day weekend governing the country — and the Trudeau Liberals have a lot less to celebrate than they did in previous summers.

With little more than a year to go before the 2019 federal election campaign kicks off, the Liberals are facing a closer race than a first-term majority government might expect. The party's lead in the polls has disappeared and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing pressure from both the Conservatives in Quebec and the New Democrats in Ontario.

When Trudeau marked his first Canada Day as prime minister, he was still enjoying his post-election honeymoon. The Liberals held a 16-point lead over the Conservatives and Trudeau's approval rating was 31 points higher than his disapproval score.

The honeymoon was over by the time his second Canada Day rolled around in 2017, but the Liberals were still in a strong position — ahead of the Conservatives by five points and with Trudeau's net approval rating at +11.

The Liberals held good leads in British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada — the same kind of numbers that gave them a majority in 2015.
That's no longer the case.

The CBC Poll Tracker puts the Liberals at just under 35 per cent support, with the Conservatives at just over 34 per cent. The New Democrats, at 19 per cent, are up four to five points over where they stood on Canada Days past.

Of the four pollsters who have reported results in June, two have given the Liberals a narrow lead while the other two have put the Conservatives ahead — a textbook sign of two parties in a tie.
The Liberals are only narrowly ahead in B.C. and trail the Conservatives by five points in Ontario. Their support in Atlantic Canada is still robust and the party retains its wide lead in Quebec — but the Conservatives have made significant gains in that province, showcased by the party's impressive byelection win in Chicoutimi–Le Fjord.

Though some polls have suggested his spat with U.S. President Donald Trump has helped Trudeau, his own approval rating has also tumbled — to a net -11 points over the last five polls.

The result is that the Liberals likely would lose their majority if these numbers were repeated on election day. The odds of a minority government headed up by either Trudeau or Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer would be about three-to-one in favour right now — potentially giving kingmaker powers to Jagmeet Singh and the NDP.

Shifting sands in Quebec


Quebec has long been key to the Liberals' hopes for a re-elected majority government in 2019. While the party has seen its support slip elsewhere in the country, Trudeau remains more popular in Quebec today than he was in 2015 when the Liberals took 40 seats in the province.

Quebec has seen the most significant shifts in support since the last election. Both the Liberals and Conservatives have seen gains while the New Democrats have watched their support crater; the party captured just 8.6 per cent of the vote in Chicoutimi–Le Fjord, down 21 points from its 2015 performance.

The Bloc Québécois is still in the midst of its leadership turmoil. Martine Ouellet was booted out as leader by party members in early June and a few of its dissident MPs have returned to the fold, but it's still not clear what kind of ending this story will have for the sovereigntist party. There are few indications it will be a happy one.

The Conservatives have taken advantage, recruiting former Bloc leader Michel Gauthier to campaign for the party during the recent byelection. This past week, Scheer promised to support Quebec having a single tax form. It's a move that's aimed directly at the nationalist voters who have supported the Bloc in the past and are poised to elect François Legault's conservative Coalition Avenir Québec party to power in October.

Conservative gains in Quebec narrow, not wide


But despite the significant swing in support toward the Conservatives in Chicoutimi–Le Fjord — the party gained 36 points — there are signs that the Conservatives could struggle to replicate that success elsewhere in the province.

Former junior hockey coach and newly-elected MP Richard Martel is very well-known in the riding. He was undoubtedly the key factor in the Conservative victory. Recruiting him was a coup, but the party will not be able to find dozens of Martels to run for them in 2019.

Instead, the Conservatives' support in Quebec — now polling at about 20 per cent — puts the party in range of only a few pick-ups in the province. With their current numbers in Quebec, the Conservatives are in play in as many as 18 seats. That's an improvement over the 12 they currently hold, but the party's support remains limited to a few regions of the province in and around Quebec City and in central and eastern Quebec.

A new CROP/Cogeco poll illustrates the Conservatives' limited potential for new seat gains, with the party trailing the Liberals by 14 points outside of the two main urban centres, by 20 points in the Montreal suburbs and by 29 points on the island of Montreal itself. Only in the Quebec City region do the Conservatives hold a lead — but they already occupy most of the seats there.

The Liberals are still better positioned to win seats the NDP and Bloc could give up in and around Montreal. The Liberals are still in a position to pick up some 20 seats in the province, making up for some of the losses the Liberals could suffer in the rest of Canada.

Ontario NDP boosts federal party


Ontario is the province that could deliver the Liberals the most losses if the current polling holds its pattern until next year. The gains the NDP seems to be making in the province should be particularly troubling to Trudeau. Though two of the four pollsters reporting in June found the NDP stagnant in Ontario, Nanos Research and Ipsos have put the New Democrats at 26 and 28 per cent, respectively.

The NDP hasn't consistently polled over 20 per cent in Ontario since before the 2015 federal election — and the Liberals haven't been below 35 per cent since then.


Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh is hoping to build on Ontario NDP Leader Andrea Horwath's breakthrough in June's provincial election. (Galit Rodan/Canadian Press)
But it's difficult to separate the Ontario NDP's performance under Andrea Horwath in the recent provincial election— and the collapse of Kathleen Wynne's Liberals — from the federal polling numbers.

It may be no coincidence that the last time Trudeau's Liberals registered over 40 per cent in any poll in Ontario was just before the official start of the provincial campaign. And despite the federal NDP's gains, there has been no corresponding improvement in Singh's personal numbers in the province.

An ephemeral electoral halo?


It wouldn't be the first time the federal New Democrats have been buoyed by the success of their provincial counterparts. The federal party experienced a boost in Alberta after Rachel Notley's historic win in 2015 and in British Columbia after John Horgan's breakthrough last year.

Even the federal Liberals got a bump in Ontario after Wynne's unexpected majority victory in 2014.
The question for Singh and the NDP is whether the boost the federal party has gotten in Ontario — and the hit the Liberals have suffered — will hold, or will turn out to be mostly the product of voters' confusion between the two levels of government.

Either way, it's an opportunity for Singh's New Democrats to exploit. Ontarians are willing to give the party a hearing, as Canadians were willing to do in 2015 after the party's win in Alberta.

But it's the sort of opportunity the New Democrats have squandered before. If Singh can avoid doing that again — and if Scheer can build on his own opportunity for growth in Quebec — things could get worse for Trudeau's Liberals by the next Canada Day.

WHy we call Stephen Harper aConservative I’ll never understand. His brand is Republican Conservative. Right from his 1997 Speech to the Republican think tank in Montreal. He delighted by putting down Canada, as a Northern Welfare State and proud of it he was stumping for trump in Las Vegas May 2016. Speknding the weekend as the guest of one of the richest men in America. A casino mogul.

Harper is a reformacon. Study the history of Harper - many of his statements throughout the years are anti-federalist, and to my mind, anti-Canadian - because I am a federalist.

Trump and the Republicans pass a "tax reform" that rewards the upper 1-2% - and straddles everyone else in the US with trillions in debt - just on the tax cuts, nothing more. And they buy it, like it's going to make their lives better. This voodoo economics is counting on corporations to invest in jobs - meanwhile, like all publicly traded entities - they are taking the money and running.

Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee - and invest in our country, with a 1.8% return on investment, that goes into to our tax coffers. Happy Canada Day!

Keep our distance - let him play out his rhetoric, see where that gets his delivery of promises. The 'delivery of promises' is Trump's goal - no matter if it backfires, no matter if it actually hurts people, including his die hard supporters - Trump must be the man that Kept His Promises. Problem is, like everything - life gets in the way, events get in the way - which is why most leaders can't, and taking real life into account - shouldn't in many cases - deliver all of their promises.

facts numbers and data show any who look that Canada, Canadians and businesses, do better under liberal federal governments.. a mere 2 percent better, but still better.

facts numbers and data also show that the conservatives are responsible for 60 percent of Canada's debt since confederation, and were in charge only 40 percent of the time..Harper and Mulroney accrued almost one full quarter of Canada's debt between them.. while the conservative choir insists it is everyone other or else,...

if one lines up the politicos charge with crimes, the conservatives from local to provincial to the federal level also lead the pack...

Before The alder was in office it was a country, Lester Pearson got us a Flag that was distinct that we could be proud of, then with EXPO 67 we learned to wave the flag and we started not being an extension of the Britain or France, and we became Proud Canadians, of course there were mistakes made, which we are reminded of Continuously but Canada did things and we made our mark in those years, that we build on every year since. That flag is one of the most known in the world, and we are there.

@Edward Peter Methinks you are preaching to the choir.

FYI I was at Expo 67 proudly wearing an Air Cadet uniform provided by Lord Beaverbook's 333 Squadron. I was a Proud Canadian the instant I understood the things my Father told me. He was in the RCAF in WWII and the soul survivour of a plane crash in which 8 others were killed. He named me after his friend David Hornell who was killed on my Mother's birthday in 1944 two weeks after Raymond her favourite brother was killed in Normandy and I am named after him as well.

Perhaps now some folks will understand why I ran for public office five times thus far N'esy Pas?

“[false]Patriotism is the refuge of the scoundrel” J.Boswell attributed to Dr. Samuel Jonson.
It is impossible to celebrate Canada Day when some of our compatriots are living in sub humans conditions just a few blocks away from our house and in a different galaxy of our conscience.
Impossible to celebrate when 860.000 Canadians are forced to eat from food banks every month in order to sustain their lives; and our elderly parents are left in hospitals hallways waiting endless hours for medical attention; and we have to endure years waiting for a knee replacement or seeing a specialist. Our government claims poverty, yet, finds the resources to embark in militaristic adventures in Latvia, Ukraine, Estonia, Iraq, Afghanistan, and the latest myth-creating “peace-keeping” adventure in Mali.
Canadians are justified in proudly celebrating the achievement of our communities, but must critically voice and condemn the many inadequacies that the Canadian ruling elite, represented by either political

Harper called our PM by his first name - then goes to Washington thinking he and Trump are on some kind of "wavelength".

Donald Trump crashes the Canada Day party: Aaron Wherry

'It is as difficult a moment as we have ever faced as a country,' says Bob Rae


U.S. President Donald Trump, left, is greeted by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during the G7 Summit in La Malbaie, Que., last month. The Canada-U.S. relationship is in rough shape as Canada celebrates its birthday today. (Saul Loeb/AFP/Getty Images)



"It is as difficult a moment as we have ever faced as a country," Bob Rae wrote last week.
So, uh, Happy Canada Day.

The former NDP premier of Ontario and federal Liberal leader is referring here, of course, to Donald Trump. And the trade wars, tantrums and global instability the American president entails.

It is because of Trump that Canada's birthday will be rung in this weekend with a round of retaliatory tariffs, raising prices on goods like American licorice, handkerchiefs and mattresses.

It is because of Trump that everything seems that much more tenuous.
Historians might note that Canada has had its share of difficult moments before now. Two world wars, the Great Depression, the Conscription Crisis, the October Crisis, Oka, two Quebec referendums. And whether this moment is any more or less trying is perhaps worthy of debate.
But this is not a passing trifle.

'Perfectly reciprocal'


It is a measure of the current tension that significant intrigue has surrounded Stephen Harper's decision to meet with White House officials next week without notifying Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's office, as if he had been caught cavorting with the administration of a hostile state.

While announcing Canada's summer offensive on Friday, Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland was diplomatic on the question of Harper's choice of meetings.
"He is a person we all need to respect as the former prime minister of Canada. The remarks he made on Fox News recently, I think were helpful. And we wish him well in all his endeavours," she said, standing in a steel factory in Hamilton, Ont.

She was only slightly less diplomatic in explaining what the Trudeau government was about to do to the price of American exports to Canada.




Politics News
Freeland 'We won't back down'
00:0000:41


Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland tells reporters in Hamilton that Canada's reponse to US tariffs is firm and measured 0:41
Flanked by people in hard hats, Freeland described the American tariffs that started the dispute as "illegal" and "unjust" and "absurd" and "hurtful." The Canadian reaction, she said, would be "perfectly reciprocal."

"I cannot emphasize enough the regret with which we take these countermeasures," Freeland said. "We are acting very much in sorrow than in anger."

Of course, the Canadian public could be moved to anger if this situation drags on.

'Moments of drama'


Was she worried, Freeland was asked, about the possibility of further American action in response to the Canadian retaliation?

"As I said, the day before our NAFTA negotiations began, we expected that there would be moments of drama," she said. "And I think that prediction has been borne out."



Politics News
Freeland 'There will be moments of drama in the future'
00:0001:16



Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland tells reporters in Hamilton that Canada's reponse to US tariffs is firm and measured 1:16
Behind her, Labour Minister Patty Hajdu smiled.

"And I think all of us, at this point, fully anticipate there will be some moments of drama in the future," Freeland said.

A few hours passed without a presidential tweet in response, which at least made for a relatively calm Friday afternoon.

Freeland continues to speak with the American trade ambassador, she reminded everyone. And the Mexican presidential election is today. The Canadians anticipate NAFTA discussions will enter "a renewed, intensive phase" soon thereafter.

U.S. Republicans have shown little to no interest in constraining Trump to this point, but the combination of punitive tariffs and midterm elections might put new pressure on Trump to end this fight and move on, even if only to reduce the likelihood that he will face a Democrat-controlled Congress for the next two years.
"I am absolutely confident that common sense will prevail," Freeland said. "I am an economic determinist and I think economic reality is a very powerful thing. And the economic reality is our relationship with the United States is balanced and mutually beneficial."

So it's possible this trade war is over by the fall.

But that wouldn't allow Canadians to stop thinking about Trump.

The ramifications of Trump


Chances are, people fleeing U.S. immigration policy will continue showing up at the Canadian border. And the tumult of the G7 Summit in Charlevoix, Que., could be a preview of every major international gathering for the foreseeable future. Trump might drop tariffs on Canadian products, but continue his trade wars with Europe and China.

In any number of ways, the spectre and ramifications of Trump could continue to frame Canadian politics.

In unofficially launching his party's re-election campaign this week, Trudeau mentioned neither Trump nor the trade war, but the subtext was clear.

"We've seen it, around the world, the politics of division, of polarization, of populism, are taking more and more hold," Trudeau said at a rally in Mississauga, Ont. "And we have to demonstrate, here in Canada, for ourselves, for our communities, for our kids, but also for the world, that those don't always work."


Trump looms large over Canadian politics these days and is likely to continue to do so during the next federal election. (Evan Vucci/Associated Press)
At a news conference in Ottawa on Friday, Conservative finance critic Pierre Poilievre segued from a condemnation of American trade policy to a wide-ranging argument against Liberal domestic policy.
"Unfortunately, Justin Trudeau enters this trade war in a position of weakness," he said, criticizing the government's decision to run budget deficits, lamenting a lack of foreign investment and calling on the Liberals to cut taxes.
So this Canada Day won't pass without some thought of Trump.
And we'll likely still be thinking about him at our next birthday.
It could, in fact, be a long while before this moment passes.

The US is doing all it can to avoid a war. Everyone knows you cannot trust the North Koreans. Kim said he wanted to denuclearise all of Korea, but we will see what happens. For all of you hoping that Trump fails, please remember this: if Trump fails, there will be war. There is no question that the entire region wants Kim to get rid of his nukes. I have no doubt that Trump told the Chinese president for life that there would be military action to wipe out Kim's nukes, if he does not give them up voluntarily. If they do not get all of his nukes, maybe Seoul, Tokyo, LA or some other city is wiped out. This is high stakes diplomacy. It is too bad that it had to get to this. Clinton, Bush and Obama did nothing to stop N Korea from getting nukes at a time that they did not have them. Now, the consequences of a war could be catastrophic.

@Basil Masse The question is would the Chinese rather have your scenario or have Kim get rid of his nukes? I believe China will want to avoid a war.

Unfortunately, a war in Korea would be lucky to have only 250,000 casualties. The casualties would be mush higher. The US will not allow Kim to keep nukes.

U.S. has plan to dismantle North Korea nuclear program within a year

But U.S. intelligence officials reportedly believe there will be no surrender of nuclear stockpile


U.S. National security adviser John Bolton says North Korea's nuclear arsenal could be dismantled in a year if Pyongyang co-operates and fully discloses all of its ballistic missile sites. (Alexander Zemlianichenko/Associated Press)


White House national security adviser John Bolton has said he believes the bulk of North Korea's weapons programs could be dismantled within a year, as the United States and North Korea resumed working-level talks.

Bolton told CBS's Face the Nation on Sundaythat Washington has devised a program to dismantle North Korea's weapons of mass destruction — chemical, biological and nuclear — and ballistic missile programs in a year, if there is full co-operation and disclosure from Pyongyang.

"If they have the strategic decision already made to do that and they're co-operative, we can move very quickly," he said. "Physically we would be able to dismantle the overwhelming bulk of their programs within a year."

He said Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will likely discuss that proposal with the North Koreans soon. The Financial Times reported that Pompeo was due to visit North Korea this week but the U.S. State Department has not confirmed any travel plans.


Planning for Pompeo visit


South Korea media reported on Sunday that Sung Kim, the U.S. ambassador to the Philippines, met with North Korean officials on Sunday at the border village of Panmunjom, within the demilitarized zone separating the two Koreas, to co-ordinate an agenda for Pompeo's next visit to North Korea.
It would be physically possible to dismantle the bulk of North Korea's programs within a year.- Arms control expert Thomas Countryman
Kim's delegation delivered Pompeo's letter to Kim Yong-chol, a top Pyongyang official who met Pompeo and U.S. President Donald Trump ahead of last month's historic summit between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore, Yonhap news agency said, citing an unnamed diplomatic source.

Some experts disputed Bolton's optimistic time frame for decommissioning the North's weapons.
"It would be physically possible to dismantle the bulk of North Korea's programs within a year," said Thomas Countryman, the State Department's top arms control officer under former president Barack Obama.

"I do not believe it would be possible to verify full dismantlement within a year, nor have I yet seen evidence of a firm DPRK decision to undertake full dismantlement."

Expanded missile production?


North Korea is completing a major expansion of a key missile-manufacturing plant, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday, citing researchers who have examined new satellite imagery from San Francisco-based Planet Labs Inc.

Images analyzed by the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, California show North Korea was finishing construction on the exterior of the plant around the time Kim Jong-un held a summit with Trump last month, the report said.


A Washington Post report on the weekend said U.S. intelligence officials have concluded North Korea, under Kim Jong-un, does not intend to fully surrender its nuclear stockpile and is preparing to deceive the U.S. about its size. (Korea Summit Press Pool via AP)

The Chemical Material Institute in Hamhung makes solid-fuel ballistic missiles, which could allow North Korean to transport and launch a missile more quickly, compared to a liquid-fuel system that requires lengthy preparation.

Last week, 38 North, a website run by the Johns Hopkins University, said satellite imagery showed the North had been upgrading its Yongbyon nuclear complex.

"None of this activity technically violates any agreement Kim may have made," said Vipin Narang, an associate professor at MIT's security studies program.
"What it suggests is that Kim has no intention of surrendering his nuclear weapons."

Kim agreed at the June 12 summit to "work toward denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula," but the joint statement released after the meeting gave no details on how or when Pyongyang might forsake its nuclear and missile programs.

As negotiations progress, the North could try to trade sites and technology that have relatively low values in exchange for sanctions relief, while covertly operating facilities required to advance key capabilities, Narang said.

"It is perfectly rational for North Korea to shift the emphasis to developing solid-fuel missiles now that it already has a suite of liquid-fuel missiles to deter an attack," he said.


Prediction of 10-year plan



Siegfried Hecker, a nuclear scientist and Stanford University professor, has predicted it would take around 10 years to dismantle and clean up a substantial part of North Korea's Yongbyon nuclear site.

U.S. intelligence is not certain how many nuclear warheads North Korea has. The Defense Intelligence Agency is at the high end, with an estimate of about 50. But all the agencies believe Pyongyang is concealing an unknown number, especially smaller tactical ones, in caves and other underground facilities around the country.
The U.S. intelligence agencies believe North Korea has increased production of fuel for nuclear weapons at multiple secret sites in recent months and may try to hide these while seeking concessions in nuclear talks with the United States, NBC News quoted U.S. officials as saying on Friday.

The Washington Post reported Saturday that U.S. intelligence officials have concluded that North Korea does not intend to fully give up its nuclear arsenal and is considering ways to hide the number of weapons it has. It also reported Pyongyang has secret production facilities, according to the latest evidence they have.

Bolton refused to comment on intelligence matters but the United States was going into nuclear negotiations aware of Pyongyang's failure to live up to its promises in the past.

"There's not any starry-eyed feeling among the group doing this," he said. "We're well aware of what the North Koreans have done in the past."

@Tow Hill The former PM's ain't acting and never were. I have no doubt that as "The Donald" picks fights with the world the bankster clients of Chretien, Mulroney and Harper are very concerned about the price of tea in China and whether or not it can be purchased with the Yankee petrodollar that our not so valuable loonie is hooked at the hip to. Harper is a fellow far right wing dude who supports Bibi bigtime. Methinks the "consultants" Stevey Boy and Derek Burney are quite likely the only Canadians Trump and his minions are willing to listen to within the secretive Yankee Whitehouse West Wing about NAFTA or anything else N'esy Pas?

@Robert Stringer Harper did it even before Trump!
1. Harper contrasted immigrants and refugees with “old stock Canadians.”
2. Harper’s campaign was supported by the alt-right group National Alliance (look up their beliefs), which is also the source of the Conservative Party’s “Strong, Proud, and Free” slogan.
3. Harper called Liberal supporters “Asian immigrants, people who live in ghettos”
4. Harper was leader of the Northern Foundation (look up their beliefs), an alt-right political organization originally founded to support apartheid South Africa.
5. Harper was Reform Party policy chief when many members were from the white supremacist group Heritage Front. Harper had Heritage Front security guards for the party.

@Jim Dandee Harper is a failed economist. Trudeau was a French and Math teacher at the private West Point Grey Academy. He has a Bachelor of arts degree in literature from McGill University and a Bachelor of education degree from the University of British Columbia. From 2002 to 2004, he studied Engineering at the École Polytechnique de Montréal, a part of the Université de Montréal. He also started a Master's degree in environmental geography at McGill University, before suspending his program to seek public office.

Stephen Harper spotted leaving the White House's West Wing

Former prime minister was expected to meet with 2 top Trump advisers



Catharine Tunney· CBC News· Posted: Jul 02, 2018 3:23 PM ET

Stephen Harper was spotted leaving the West Wing earlier today, but little is known about what the former prime minister said inside the White House.

Harper was expected to meet on Monday with Larry Kudlow — the director of the National Economic Council and Trump's go-to economic adviser — and John Bolton, the president's national security adviser, according to multiple sources who spoke to CBC News on the condition of anonymity.

An Associated Press photographer snapped a photo of the former Conservative leader leaving the White House, but neither Harper's team nor the U.S. administration has responded to CBC's requests for comment about what happened during Monday's trip to Washington.

Harper did Tweet Monday that he looked forward to meeting with more business and government leaders "to discuss the forces shaping our future," in a plug for his forthcoming book.






Harper, who now works as a consultant, personally approached the two officials for a meeting, sources told CBC News last week.

The sources said Bolton phoned the Canadian embassy in Washington to make some arrangements ahead of the meeting — a call that caught Canadian officials off guard as they were not expecting such a visit.

Harper has not shied away from talking publicly about the Canada-U.S. relationship since leaving office. He has waded into the ongoing NAFTA talks, offering commentary on TV and at conferences.

While he has criticized some of the Liberal government's actions on the trade file, he has defended the merits of NAFTA.

Harper also often meets with international conservative leaders as chair of the International Democrat Union, an alliance of conservative and centre-right parties founded 35 years ago by Britain's Margaret Thatcher, Germany's Helmut Kohl and then-U.S. vice president George Bush Sr., among others.
Harper's meeting came as the U.S. and Canada battle it out over trade.

Kudlow, who recently suffered a heart attack but is back on the job, even took to American airwaves after the G7 summit in Charlevoix to attack Trudeau's plan to impose retaliatory tariffs on the U.S.
Last month Trump slapped tariffs on Canadian aluminum and steel imports and sought to justify them on national security grounds.

In response, Canada has imposed $16.6 billion worth of new tariffs on a host of U.S. goods, from whiskey to ketchup.

CTV News first reported Harper's planned meeting with Bolton in Washington, citing details contained in emails the broadcaster had obtained.

Largest U.S. business group attacks Trump on tariffs

Canada's retaliatory tariffs went into effect July 1

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the nation's largest business group and customarily a close ally of President Donald Trump's Republican Party, is launching a campaign on Monday to oppose Trump's trade tariff policies.

With some of America's tightest trading partners imposing retaliatory measures, Trump's approach to tariffs has unsettled financial markets and strained relations between the White House and the Chamber.

The new campaign, detailed first to Reuters, is an aggressive effort by the business lobbying giant.
Using a state-by-state analysis, it argues that Trump is risking a global trade war that will hit the wallets of U.S. consumers.

"The administration is threatening to undermine the economic progress it worked so hard to achieve," said Chamber President Tom Donohue in a statement to Reuters.

"We should seek free and fair trade, but this is just not the way to do it."

The Chamber, which has three million members, historically has worked closely with Republican presidents and praised Trump for signing business tax cuts in December.

But mounting trade tensions have opened a rift with the president.

Nations fighting back


Trump has implemented billions of dollars in tariffs targeted at China, Canada, Mexico and the European Union, saying such moves are needed to offset trade imbalances.

Nations have begun retaliating.

Canada has struck back at U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs by imposing punitive measures on $16.6 billion worth of American goods until Washington relents.

Those tariffs kicked in on Sunday.
China is expected to impose a new 25 per cent tax on soybeans in July. Mexico is adding duties to pork imports.

The EU has targeted $3.2 billion US in American goods exported to the 28-member bloc, including bourbon and Harley Davidson motorcycles.

Pushing back on Trump, the Chamber based a state-by-state analysis on data from the U.S. Department of Commerce and government agencies in China, the EU, Mexico, and Canada.

Trump has previously been persuaded to back off of trade threats with the argument that states that backed him in the 2016 presidential campaign will be hard-hit.

For example, the Chamber said Texas could see $3.9 billion US worth of exports targeted by retaliatory tariffs; Tennessee, $1.4 billion US; and South Carolina, $3 billion US.

I've said for a long time that little kids need to be helped to realize that they can't always get what they want. A two-year old throws a tantrum and the rest of us let him or her cry it out. The two-year-old becomes a mature person in the process.

The longer this process is delayed, the more destructive the tantrums become. Such collisions with reality are an unavoidable part of growing up as functional members of society.

"...instead of trying to find the cheapest possible food for their people on global markets, countries are conceding that their citizens will have to pay more, leading to worries about food security not seen in decades."

That is not true at all. Canada continues to pursue free trade agreements with every country in the world. The only exception to business as usual is the US-initiated trade war, which has (rightly) led to retaliatory actions. Other than that, Canada continues to seek mutually beneficial trade agreements with countries that negotiate in good faith.

@Marek Rudny Trade agreements have nothing to do with it. It already happens here. A huge portion of fish sold - fresh, frozen, canned or packaged - is not what the label says.

The same is true with Canadian and American versions of Pepsi and Coca Cola.

For example, the Canadian versions of Coca Cola and Pepsi tastes much sweeter than American counterparts.

The different tastes are due to different formulations as American versions contain high levels of High Fructose Corn Syrup than Canadian counterparts.

Why are Canadian and American versions of Pepsi and Coca Cola different?

That is attributed to more stringent government regulations as well as different formulations.

At the end of the day, since European Union are a supranational alliance, food standards should be the same in all member nations, not mush in one country and great quality in another.

You can thank the Harper government for that.

Warning signs as states revive Depression-era trade tactics: Don Pittis

Food security fears and protectionist subsidies could make economies less efficient for everyone


On Friday, Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland announced Canada's response in its escalating trade tiff with the U.S. (Peter Power/Canadian Press)


Following a week filled with threats and counter-threats, there are ominous signs that a long era of free trade may be coming to an abrupt end.

In a transition that would have seemed astonishing only a few years ago, national strategies based on the advantages of open borders are being replaced by tactics not seen for decades.

Suddenly, countries are looking inward instead of outward. And it's contagious.


Self-destructive


Rather than seeking global or regional efficiency, countries such as Canada are imposing protectionist measures to save their own domestic industries from the damaging effects of foreign protectionism, particularly from the Trump administration in the U.S.
For example, instead of trying to find the cheapest possible food for their people on global markets, countries are conceding that their citizens will have to pay more, leading to worries about food security not seen in decades.

For those schooled in the logic of free trade, including internationally respected trade economist Daniel Trefler, the whole process is nothing but self-destructive.


As China has become wealthier, people there have been eating more meat. This requires the import of feed from the U.S, but that might change as a result of
 China's tariff battle with the Trump administration. (Jason Lee/Reuters)
"Everything that we're talking about with the Trump initiative is things that reduce our competitiveness vis-a-vis the rest of the world," says Trefler, a professor at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management who advises the Canadian government on investment and trade policy.
"All of this is not only going to make Canada and Mexico worse off, it's going to make the United States worse off as well."

Striking back where it hurts


And while he understands the damaging effect of escalating trade barriers, Trefler says if the U.S. were to seriously hurt the Canadian economy with, say, a 25 per cent duty on cars and car parts, Canada would have to strike back in a way that hurts the U.S.

And he says that should include ending U.S. patent protection in this country on things such as pharmaceuticals.
When some of our strongest free trade advocates start taking positions like that it reminds you how far we have come from a few years ago when everyone, including Canada, the U.S. and China, were looking to benefit from the advantages of more open borders.


Brazil is the world's largest exporter of soybeans, but it can't entirely replace the supply China imports from the U.S. (Paulo Whitaker/Reuters)
Now, those countries are taking punitive actions against each other that seem to fly in the face of their own self-interest. And one of the most important areas is food. And one of the most seriously affected could be China.

"Food security is a major issue for the Chinese," says Trefler, "so anything that destroys food security, they are going to make it a priority to find a solution, and as you know, when the Chinese have a priority to find a solution, they are pretty good at finding it."

Losing trust


Jennifer Clapp, a specialist in global economics and agriculture, and author of Speculative Harvests, says a return to fears about food security harks back to the Great Depression.

The fact is, before the World Trade Organization era began in 1995, many countries, including China, rejected free trade in food for national security reasons.

"But since the mid-1990s, we've seen a liberalization of agricultural trade that's almost become like a religion," says Clapp, Canada Research Chair in global food security and sustainability at the University of Waterloo.

The theory was free trade in food and agriculture was more efficient, allowing the world to produce more food and feed more people. And food-producing countries, including the U.S., benefited from that change.

"But what is often not said is that the economic rationale for free trade in food and agriculture is based on an implicit assumption of political stability and predictability in terms of the actions of one's trading partners," she says. In the Trump era, she says, predictability is no longer assured.


U.S. President Donald Trump's policies have turned the clock back on global trade. (Kevin Lamarque/Reuters)
As some U.S. trade partners buy less food, the U.S. has revived the Commodity Credit Corporation, created in 1933 to protect U.S. farmers from global competition and the Depression's collapse of market prices.

As China cuts back on U.S. soybeans — used mostly as feed for livestock to produce meat — it, too, must adjust to a new reality. Even increasing purchases from the world's biggest producer, Brazil, cannot replace the huge volumes China purchased from the U.S.

One solution would be to buy more meat from places like Canada instead of growing it at home. But Clapp says China has also begun a campaign to encourage people to eat 50 per cent less meat, ostensibly for health and environmental reasons.

Wounds inflicted


Closer to home, the newly elected president of Mexico, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, has advocated food self-sufficiency for his country.

Altering supply chains to avoid tariffs adds to costs, and the longer trade barriers stay in place, the more unlikely trade patterns will go back to the way they were before. Wounds inflicted on trade partners could take years to heal.
But the current global trade chaos may not be about efficiency in its traditional form. Instead, it may be about a realignment of world power, a perhaps not-fully-rational loathing for the way things are now.

And Clapp says the results may not be all bad, in agriculture at least. Large U.S. agro-industry may suffer from the changes, but smaller, local agriculture can find other kinds of efficiencies, supporting communities and providing healthier, more environmentally friendly food, she says.

"The broader benefits are not just about money."

'They're just cheating us': East Europeans decry 'food apartheid' that leaves them with inferior products

'Dual foods' controversy has embroiled entire EU and will take years to resolve

Sometimes, when you move from one country to another, things look, even taste, different.
That was Ilya Kunes's experience when he moved back to the Czech Republic from France. Things definitely tasted different.

Even the same famous brand of Italian spaghetti he had bought in France. That seemed odd. He checked. His Czech-bought spaghetti contained a far smaller percentage of expensive Durum wheat than the French variety.

When Kunes, who had lived for years in France, cooked his Czech-bought noodles, he found himself eating not spaghetti "al dente" but a gluey mush.

Welcome, Ilya, to the world of "dual food" colonialism.

Officially, it didn't exist. Companies and big supermarket chains with outlets in the east and the west of Europe have denied any double dealing. But consumers and governments in Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia and Bulgaria have long been adamant that something was wrong.

They were proved right, thanks largely to tests by laboratories in their own countries.

"The companies claim that people in the east have different tastes," Kunes said. "That's ridiculous. They're just cheating us, and making an extra profit on cheaper food."

He's certainly right about companies insisting they're only responding to local tastes.

Spar, an international network of supermarkets founded in the Netherlands, defended its own-brand strawberry yogurt in Slovenia, which has 40 per cent less strawberry than the Austrian version. It claims it is merely producing what the Slovenians want.
Consumer authorities will finally get teeth to punish the cheaters. It cannot be cheap to cheat- EU Commissioner Vera Jourova
That pales in comparison with a German supermarket pizza sold with an Edam and mozzarella cheese topping in Germany and something concocted from vegetable oil next door in the Czech Republic.

It was the same with Tulip luncheon meat. It contained pork in Germany but only fat and scraps of chicken in the Czech Republic.

"In this case, I don't think you can really argue about taste or preferences," said Ales Chmelar, the Czech secretary of state for EU affairs.

Tests in a Prague laboratory of 21 products showed only seven sold in Germany and Austria were the same as in their eastern neighbours.

European politicians, after years of ignoring the issue, have suddenly become the eastern consumers' friends. The tide was clearly turning when the Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, in May 2017, likened the practice to food apartheid.

"Maybe this is a remnant of apartheid — for some, food should be of higher quality, and for others, in Eastern Europe, of lower quality," Borissov said.

Then the president of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, jumped on the bandwagon. In cadences echoing those of Abraham Lincoln, he proclaimed in his "state of the union" address on Sept. 13, 2017: "Slovaks do not deserve less fish in their fish fingers, Hungarians less meat in their meals, Czechs less cacao in their chocolate."
The industry response the next day to Juncker was to suggest the problem was exaggerated, and besides, the differences weren't limited to east and west.

"The composition of products may sometimes be slightly different between countries for various reasons, but this does not necessarily imply 'dual' or 'inferior' quality between east and west European markets," said Florence Ranson, of FoodDrinkEurope, the industry's lobby group in Brussels.

"For example, differences in composition can also be found between the U.K. and France, or between Italy and Sweden."

The battle remained one of words until Vera Jourova, the EU's commissioner for justice and consumer rights, pushed through a declaration that the EU would insist on equal standards for the same brands across Europe.

Jourova is from the Czech Republic.
"In a globalized world where the big companies have a huge advantage over individual consumers, we need to level the odds," Jourova said, announcing the new policy on April 11.

"Consumer authorities will finally get teeth to punish the cheaters. It cannot be cheap to cheat."
But the EU is a lumbering bureaucratic centipede when it comes to such matters. Change will come in many slow steps.
You can say it is slow. But the legislation must be of high quality and above all enforceable.- Michaela Sojdrova, EU member
In May, the European Commission offered member states a methodology for testing multinational brands to provide proof and expose "dual food" culprits.

The next six months will be taken up with doing those tests on an experimental basis to check their accuracy. The next step will be for the European Parliament to debate the European Commission's "directive on unfair commercial practices."
Then the relevant ministers from each EU country must be consulted.

And finally, each country must pass legislation in line with the directive to give it teeth.
One Czech member of the European Parliament, Michaela Sojdrova, estimates the new dawn of equal food won't come until the beginning of 2020.

"You can say it is slow," she said. "But the legislation must be of high quality and above all enforceable."

Of course. Seen that way, what's a year or two more before the end of "food apartheid"?

Meanwhile, to avoid eating gluey mush, Ilya Kunes will have to stock up on his favourite Italian pasta in Paris. It could be a couple of years before the Durum wheat count reaches the same level in Prague.
