I repeat methinks if Andrea Anderson-Mason, Jeff Carr, Jake Stewart, Sherry Wilson and Ross Wetmore followed the French comedian Bobby Gauvin's lead & sat as Independents they would rule Higgy's circus N'esy Pas?

Former Higgs cabinet ministers level tough questions at government

Three former cabinet ministers take aggressive approach at public accounts committee

Public accounts committee meetings have included tough questions for government from three former Higgs cabinet ministers. (Karissa Donkin/CBC)

They're not exactly rebels, but a trio of backbench Progressive Conservative MLAs have been flexing their independence at the legislature's Public Accounts committee and turning its livestream into must-see political TV.

Last week the three Tories, all former ministers dumped from the PC cabinet last fall, put the spotlight on school construction decisions, slow ambulance response times and unspent climate funds.

All three exchanges were compelling, and all three topics are potentially uncomfortable or awkward for the PC government.

"The goal is not to be quiet and go and hide when you're in government," says one of the MLAs, Jake Stewart, who represents Southwest Miramichi-Bay du Vin. "The goal is to work on behalf of constituents."

Stewart asked Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson about her recent conclusion that the Ambulance New Brunswick contract favours urban areas because missed response targets in rural areas get less weight in the calculations.

Stewart's hometown of Blackville was one of the affected communities and he said during the meeting he wants the contract changed.

"That issue is extremely important where I live," Stewart told CBC News. "I don't think it would be possible for me to be there on that committee and not ask those questions."

New Maryland-Sunbury MLA Jeff Carr kicked off the pot-stirring last week when he endorsed Adair-MacPherson's finding that the construction of a new school in the riding of Education Minister Dominic Cardy was not based on evidence.

"I think we have to pay attention to what you offer us and try to make the changes for everybody involved," Carr told her. 

He added that an upgrade to Oromocto High School, which serves his riding, was "pushed way over to the side" when the Hanwell school was able to "jump the queue."

Stewart followed up later the same day with his comments on Ambulance New Brunswick.

"Ambulance coverage is human life. It's life and death," he told Adair-MacPherson.

"The need for a new contract is evident, because we can't allow rural areas of the province to suffer. … That's not acceptable to any taxpayer or any citizen of New Brunswick." 

The next day, Fundy-The Isles-Saint John West MLA Andrea Anderson-Mason used courtroom-style cross-examination questioning to reveal that almost $4 million in carbon tax revenue wasn't spent on climate change projects as required in 2018-19. 

"There's always a risk in terms of not spending the full budget," deputy environment minister Cade Libby acknowledged after a series of rapid-fire questions from the former attorney general.

The three episodes caught the attention of the opposition Liberals.

"Normally that doesn't happen," said Victoria-La Vallée MLA Chuck Chiasson, a veteran of the public accounts committee."Quite honestly, it took me off guard.

"I actually texted one of the other [Liberal] people on the committee … and I said 'Are you giving them these questions?' I thought, 'Gee, those are the questions we need to be asking."

Carr and Anderson-Mason did not respond to interview requests.

Stewart's approach 'nothing new'

Stewart says he wasn't looking for an "aha moment" and his approach was nothing new.

"I think I've always been fairly independent," he says. "I've been accused of it, or guilty of it, for a number of years."

He said backbench MLAs like him can "scream at the top of your lungs," or they can use the committee system to work "in a professional and precise way" raising issues important to their constituencies.

"Public accounts does provide a significant forum to drill down on the issues that really matter," he says. 

All three MLAs were cabinet ministers in Premier Blaine Higgs's minority government. But when the PCs won a majority last September, Higgs shuffled them out in favour of newcomers. 

Stewart was Aboriginal affairs minister before the shuffle and supported calls for an inquiry into systemic racism, putting him at odds with Higgs.

After her demotion, Anderson-Mason complained about the slow pace of government action on broadband internet in her riding, which Higgs labelled "sour grapes."


Jamie Gillies, political scientist at St. Thomas University, says MLAs outside cabinet are a little freer to work for their constituents. (CBC)

Chiasson said last week's questions may reflect "a little bit of frustration, a little bit of division" within the PC caucus, but political scientist Jamie Gillies of St. Thomas University says not to read too much into it.

"I don't think I would describe it as even dissent in the caucus or a revolt, but I think what we're seeing is maybe a little bit of an evolution since the election," he says.

"They're feeling a little more comfortable to say, 'You know, we're not down a couple of seats here. We've got a majority and I don't like how this is being treated within caucus,' or 'I agree with the auditor general on this.'"

The Health Department says it continues to discuss a new ambulance contract with Medavie Health Services New Brunswick, which operates the service.

""""PAC is supposed to be non-political or non-partisan, but I've never seen it function that way, so yeah, they can bring on more.- Chuck Chiasson, Liberal MLA

"These discussions are ongoing and no decisions have been made," said spokesperson Bruce Macfarlane.

Education officials also appeared at the committee last week and explained the school ranking formula needed changes to account for rapid population growth in Fredericton and Moncton. That led to the approval of the Hanwell school, they said.

Libby told Anderson-Mason that while the provincial carbon tax deposited $37.4 million in the climate fund in 2018-19 for projects, the government only spent $33.7 million of it. 

It was the first public acknowledgement that $3.7 million wasn't spent the way it was supposed to be spent. Libby said the department hoped the money would be rolled over to be used in 2019-20, but it turned out that would violate federal climate plan requirements.

"The government has committed to spending this particular budget on climate change initiatives," he said.

Non-partisan intent

Gillies says PC MLAs acting more independently "could become a problem if it gets a little bit out of control," but it's normal members no longer in cabinet will become more vocal advocates for their ridings. 

School upgrades and construction are "a good thing to raise if you're looking to get re-elected and you want to voice the concerns of your constituents," he says.

With a minority government, "there's always the pressing issue of whether we can keep the government going," but now that the PCs have a majority, "they can be a little more aggressive in advocating for things."

Chiasson says he hopes for more tough questioning from the three PC MLAs.

"It's always good to see. PAC is supposed to be non-political or non-partisan, but I've never seen it function that way, so yeah, they can bring on more."

What does Wilson and Wetmore have to say lately? Methinks Higgy et al cannot deny the fact that I predicted the 5 disenchanted former cabinet ministers would become a force all their own N'esy Pas?

Who have David Schoen and Bruce Castor defended?

DONALD Trump's second impeachment trial is set to begin on Tuesday, February 9, in the Senate.

Trump is the only president in US history to be impeached twice by the House of Representatives. He was charged with "incitement of insurrection" in connection with the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.

Who have David Schoen and Bruce Castor defended?

Schoen has done extensive work on public interest and civil rights cases in the south about matters dealing with police, prison violence and ballot access.

Among his many cases, he played a significant role in a class-action lawsuit that challenged Alabama’s foster care system and led to improvements.

He represented the Ku Klux Klan in successfully challenging a law that forbade them from marching while wearing hoods and without paying a fee.

Schoen recently made headlines after expressing his belief that Jeffrey Epstein did not commit suicide, contradicting the findings of a medical examiner's determination.

The 62-year-old has over 30 years of experiences in practice, and has "complex litigation experience as lead counsel in trial and appellate courts throughout the country," his website explains.

Schoen met with Epstein nine days before his death, and said that based on Epstein's demeanor and excitement about new legal strategies, and citing the nature of his injuries, he believed Epstein did not kill himself.

“I don’t think it was a suicide,” Schoen said in the interview at the time.

"I don’t know what happened. I don’t have a conspiracy theory.”

Bruce Castor served two terms as the district attorney for Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

He also had a stint as the Pennsylvania solicitor general.

Castor, 59, earned his law degree from Washington and Lee University.

The 59-year-old has since worked as a criminal defense lawyer.

He is most famous for his unapologetic defense of his decision in 2005 not to prosecute Bill Cosby after a Temple University employee, Andrea Constand, accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting her.

In 2002, when Castor was a district attorney, he fought the release from prison of a man who was exonerated of a rape conviction by a DNA test.

The prisoner, Bruce Godschalk, had confessed to detectives but recanted long before his trial, but Castor had opposed allowing his DNA to be tested.

Both will be representing former President Trump at his upcoming impeachment trial, however neither have worked with each other in the past.

It remains unclear who has primacy as the lead lawyer on the team.

On February 2, both Schoen and Castor's previewed their defense strategy, in it they argued Trump did not incite the crowd "to engage in destructive behavior".

The lawyers also insisted that Trump's statements from that day are protected by his First Amendment right to freedom of speech.

"After the November election, the 45th President exercised his First Amendment right under the Constitution to express his belief that the election results were suspect, since with very few exceptions, under the convenient guise of Covid-19 pandemic 'safeguards' states election laws and procedures were changed by local politicians or judges without the necessary approvals from state legislatures," Trump's lawyers wrote.

"Insufficient evidence exists upon which a reasonable jurist could conclude that the 45th President's statements were accurate or not, and he therefore denies they were false."

Mother not allowed to see dying son, though both were patients on same N.B. hospital floor

Cormier family says when it comes to hospital visits, decisions should be made on a 'case-by-case basis'

 
Vanessa Blanch· CBC News· Posted: Feb 18, 2021 12:51 PM AT 
 

Marie Anne Cormier, seen her with her husband Edouard and sons Guy, centre, and Danny, was not able to see Guy before he died on Feb. 7 even though she was a patient on the same floor of the hospital as her son. (Submitted by Sharlene Cormier)

Danny Cormier of Lakeville struggles to hold back tears when he talks about his mother not being allowed to be with his brother, Guy, who died of cancer on Feb. 7 at Moncton's Dr. Georges-L-Dumont Hospital.

Guy had been admitted to hospital on Jan. 22 and doctors quickly discovered he had an aggressive form of cancer, said Sharlene Cormier, Danny's wife and Guy's sister-in-law. No one from the family was allowed to visit because of COVID-19 restrictions during the orange phase.

"He would try to call us every night and update us," Sharlene said of Guy's time in hospital. "We could tell that his voice was getting worse and he was begging the hospital to be able to let at least one of us in. That didn't happen."

Sharlene Cormier, seen here with her brother-in-law Guy Cormier, said losing him suddenly to cancer has been a shock for the family. She hopes that by sharing their story, changes will be made to the strict no-visitor rules at hospitals. (Submitted by Sharlene Cormier)

Everything "came to a head" on Feb. 6, when Guy and Danny's mother, Marie Anne, fell at home and was taken by ambulance to hospital.

Again, COVID-19 restrictions meant she had to go alone, and no one was allowed to see her at the hospital.

"They took her away which was very difficult," Sharlene said. "And 45 minutes after that they got the call from the hospital that my brother-in-law had turned for the worse … they needed to go to the hospital."

The calls for more compassionate visiting rules at New Brunswick hospitals are growing as families share their heartbreaking stories of not being able to see vulnerable or dying loved ones.

Mother not allowed to say good-bye to her son

Danny and his father, Edouard, were allowed to take turns visiting Guy that night because he was palliative.

Meanwhile, Marie Anne was in the emergency department, but Sharlene said no one from the family was allowed to see her to tell her what was happening.

The family returned home after visiting Guy, and after a sleepless night, Danny and his father drove back to the hospital on Feb. 7. Guy wasn't expected to live past noon.

Sharlene said that when he arrived, Danny anxiously checked on his mother and his brother.

"His brother was in room 4D and his mother was in 4A. So he asked if instead of him to go in, if they could get his mother so his mother could be with her son."

Danny and Sharlene break down when they tell what happened next.

"I asked the nurses if it was possible for my mother to visit," Danny said, explaining that his mother was at one end of the hall and his brother at the other. "They wouldn't let us, they wouldn't let my mother visit."

"[Marie Anne] couldn't go down because of COVID and Danny and his father couldn't go see her because of COVID, so Guy passed at around five o'clock and they could not go tell her," Sharlene said through tears.

'I would have gladly switched places'

Danny said the days since his brother's death have been excruciating.

"I would have gladly switched places," he said of allowing his mother into the room with his dying brother, "but it didn't work out that way."

Neither he nor his father have been permitted to visit his mother, who remains in hospital with signs of dementia. Danny expects she will be there until a nursing home bed is available.

After nearly two weeks, no one has been able to tell her that her son has died.

"We don't want her to know it all over the phone," Danny said. "The nurses let her talk on the phone to my dad, and my dad didn't have the heart to tell her over the phone."

Changes to rules needed

The Cormiers said they would be more than willing to take whatever precautions necessary to safely visit Marie Anne.

Danny understands there are COVID-19 regulations that must be followed but still thinks it's "silly" that his mother, who was on the same floor of the hospital that day, wasn't allowed to see her son.

"I feel the situations have to be looked at case-by-case," Sharlene said. "I feel we're losing our empathy, we're losing compassion, human connection."

The family hopes that by sharing their story, others will see "they're not alone."

"The rules need to be changed. One size doesn't fit all," said Sharlene. "They need to do something."


Sharlene Cormier's brother-in-law and her mother-in-law were both patients on the same hospital floor, but weren't able to see one another. 13:04

Misty McLaughlin has been trying to get permission for someone in her family to visit her ailing mother at the Chalmers hospital in Fredericton.

"It is devastating," she said. "Mom has been there for us our entire lives. This is the one time she needs us and we can't be there for her."

McLaughlin said her mother has terminal cancer. Until Feb. 9, she thought she had a year or two to live but was then diagnosed with a second type of cancer that "significantly" shortened the timeline.

No one has been able to visit her since.

"Nobody knows the date this will all end for her," said McLaughlin. "Every day with her is precious time that we're losing."

Visits possible if death is near

Patients receiving end-of-life care are allowed visitors during the orange phase, but McLaughlin's mother is not believed to be close to death.

She's in the orthopedics unit, while staff try to "stabilize" a medical issue she's been having.
"Every day, we've been told she's coming home, but almost two weeks later she's still not here."

McLaughlin is worried the hospital staff think her mother is in better condition than she really is because she doesn't like to cause a fuss and has been trying to do a lot of things on her own.

"We're very stressed. She's in there by herself - alone, discouraged, scared. And the further stress is exacerbating her situation."

A statement from the Horizon Health Network's clinical vice-president Geri Geldart said she "fully understands" the frustration.

Two networks have different rules

The network is trying to strike balance between compassion and safety, she said, adding it's sometimes "heartbreaking" for staff to have to enforce the COVID-19 visiting restrictions.

Visiting rules are different from one health network to another.

For palliative care patients in Horizon Health hospitals, 10 designated visitors are allowed, one at a time, or two at a time when the patient nears death. That applies to all recovery levels from yellow to lockdown.

For palliative care patients in Vitalite hospitals, only two designated visitors are allowed during orange phase, one at a time.

There would not be enough security or police available to keep me from my childs room ....we have become a very sick society. We cannot go to church but hundreds crowd together in stores ... and a parent could not see a dying child. ? did this hospital not have a hospice room... could mother and son and other family not be confined to this room until the person passed away. The hospital staff go home after their shift, they go shopping. they eat out, they visit friends and then return to work ... and this woman could not see her child....! terrible, so terrible.

Taking care of your own family rather than having them go to a nursing home will allow you to have as much visiting time as you want.

80-year-old kicked out of hospital for holding husband's hand

Kim Crevatin begs for compassion for elderly father who has dementia and can only communicate through touch

After 60 years of marriage, Lonny and Kendyl Terris of Riverview haven't been able to see one another for more than a month. (Submitted by Kim Crevatin)
 

Kim Crevatin and her family have been navigating the changing COVID-19 restrictions at New Brunswick long-term care homes and hospitals since the pandemic began.

The Riverview woman understands the need to keep vulnerable populations safe but believes there should be more compassion for people like her father, who has Alzheimer's and is living in hospital as he waits for a nursing home bed.

"He can say a few words, but he can't really communicate," Crevatin said of her dad, Kendyl Terris. "The only way that we can really communicate with him is through touch, is through holding his hand, talking to him, hugging him. He still responds with hugs — he'll hug you back if you hug him."

Terris had been in a special care home, but his condition deteriorated quickly when visits were suspended early on in the pandemic, and he was transferred to the Moncton Hospital in July.

While the province was in the yellow phase of its pandemic recovery plan for the summer and much of the fall, Crevatin's 80-year-old mother and other family members were able to visit the hospital every day. Crevatin describes being able to see her dad as "heart-lifting" and said her parents would hold hands for hours.

"We could listen to music with him and just be really close to him," she said.

Her father was moved to the fifth floor of the hospital after Christmas and the family was surprised to find out the rules for visitors had changed, even though the region remained in the yellow phase.

"All of a sudden we couldn't hold his hand. We had to sit in the chair with an X marked on the floor that was six feet away and we were kind of like, 'Wow, you know, this is really different.'" 

'Maybe there could be an exception made'

Crevatin said her mother, Lonny, was escorted out of the hospital by security after a nurse "caught" her reaching out to hold her husband's hand shortly after the move to the fifth floor.

"Most of the nurses in that unit were fantastic and very understanding, but there was a couple that were very into just ... following the rules," she said.

"They've been married for 60 years. It's very hard for my mother not to hold his hand, not to go up close to him, to touch him — especially since that's our only form of communication with him."

When the nurse asked her mother to return to her chair, two metres away, she did but Crevatin said two security guards were still called and they escorted her mother out of the hospital.

"She's crying her eyes out because this is really embarrassing for her. And she feels like she's done something wrong, that she's a criminal."

Crevatin said a hospital employee who screens visitors saw what was happening and handed her mother a card, suggesting she contact the patient advocate. One of the security guards apologized and told her mother: "I'm just doing my job. I don't necessarily agree with what I have to do here."

Shortly after that incident, the Moncton region was returned to the orange phase of recovery on Jan. 6, and no one has been allowed to visit Kendyl Terris since.

Crevatin has spoken with the patient advocate and with hospital management and said people keep telling her "you're not the only one going through this situation."

LISTEN | Moncton woman can't visit father with Alzheimer's:


Information Morning - Moncton

Moncton woman unable to visit her 80-year-old father with Alzheimer's despite loosened  

Kim Crevatin hasn't been able to see her 80-year-old father in over 6 weeks. 15:42

While she understands that, she wants Horizon Health to consider exceptions for families who have loved ones "living in the hospital through no fault of their own" as they wait for nursing home beds.

"Maybe there could be an exception made where one person could go in at least just to see them — so that they can know that somebody's still there," she said.

"My dad is not somebody that just went in for a surgery, he's not somebody that's sick and has just gone in and can communicate with you and is coming back home."


No visitors to the Moncton Hospital have been allowed since the region entered the orange phase on Jan. 6. Spokesperson Kris McDavid says there are 'few exceptions.' (CBC)

On its website, Horizon Health states that since the Moncton area has returned to the orange phase, "strict visitor restrictions are now in place."

A spokesperson for Horizon Health did not answer specific questions from CBC about the family's case, including the day Lonny Terris was escorted out of the hospital.

"Essentially, there are no visitors allowed during the orange phase, with a few exceptions," senior communications adviser Kris McDavid said in an email.

Minister of Health Dorothy Shephard said it is a "difficult situation" for many families.

"We have all received many pleas to allow visitation, and we in no way want to bear this hardship on families, but the fact is that the risk is extremely high to open up visitation," Shephard said during a news conference on Tuesday.

"These will be conversations that will be ongoing, they will be assessed on an ongoing basis, and if changes can be made we'll be the first to jump at it, but it is about managing the risk to our most vulnerable."

Falling through the cracks

Crevatin is hopeful her father will be transferred to a nursing home soon, and her mother will be able to visit him again.

In the meantime, she worries people like her dad are falling through the cracks.

"There's an exception made for the palliative patients — which there should be — so I just think that maybe there needs to be a look at other possible exceptions as well."

 

Lonny Terris has been trying to stay positive during the pandemic even though regular visits with her husband haven't been possible. She spends time with her grandsons, Cohen and Hunter, who do their best to cheer her up. (Submitted by Kim Crevatin)
 

Crevatin said her mother "hasn't been doing great" and is struggling after weeks of no communication with her husband.

"She's been trying to stay as positive as she can," she said. "I have a seven and a 12-year-old and she loves to come over and see them and they can cheer her up so that's what she's been trying to do."

It must be absolutley scary for people with dementia and those going into operations all alone and unable to depend on their family to stop in for a visit. The reality of life during Covid is getting almost unbelievable, I think it is time for someone in authority to think up some new solutions and so many people will not die alone.

Reply to @Lynda Armstrong:
It appears that those "in authority" in NB are simply afraid to "think" because they are all scared witless they will lose their jobs.
Those "on high" make up really silly rules, leaving it to those we get to see to enforce them, sensible or not.

    Fredericton mayor reoffers, promotes himself as steady hand

    Mike O'Brien seeking second term as mayor of capital city

     

    CBC News· Posted: Feb 18, 2021 11:46 AM AT

    Mike O'Brien is pitching himself as a steady, experienced hand in uncertain times as he officially announces his candidacy for mayor of Fredericton.

    O'Brien, who has already served one term as mayor of the capital city, announced his decision to reoffer Tuesday.

    He said a lot has happened in the city since he's become mayor, which demonstrates the need for a steady hand at the top.

    "Being the leader of the city during the [shooting] tragedy of 2018, a couple of spring floods, all those issues that it takes a pretty steady hand at the top to keep the city moving forward and healing during those kinds of processes," said O'Brien. 

    "Those are things you can never plan for, but when you live through them, it gives you the experience to really help moving forward."

    But several portfolios have seemingly come to a standstill during O'Brien's time as mayor, including plans for a regional aquatic centre, a new court house and a performing arts centre to replace the aging Playhouse.

    O'Brien maintains those projects require provincial buy-in and will see limited movement until the province is onboard.

    "Sometimes you have to play the long game on these," said O'Brien.

    "We talk about it consistently and meet with them all the time. So, no, there's no commitment yet, but it's not a lack of effort or trying and it will happen."

    Controversy

    At least one project begun during O'Brien's tenure has created some controversy.

    The development of Officers' Square drew the ire of residents concerned about maintaining the site's historic value and the requirement to remove several large trees.

    O'Brien said the decision to move ahead with the revitalization was made by council, not him alone, but admitted communication around the project could've been better.

    "We learned kind of last minute about some of the implications that might be on the trees," said O'Brien. 

    "People in the city are passionate about trees. We plant 500 of them a year, but if you remove one or two, you hear about it."

    Competition

    O'Brien already has competition for his job.

    Earlier this month, city councillor Kate Rogers announced her candidacy for mayor.

    If elected, Rogers would make history by becoming the first woman to be mayor of Fredericton.

    She is the only woman serving on council.

    Municipal elections, which were postponed last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, are scheduled to be held on May 10.

    Figures, CBC showing its bias again. The story only mentions Kathy Rogers as competition for Mike O'Brien ... yet Corinne Sanders Hersey was the first to announce her run for Mayor, last February. If this is how media coverage starts, imagine the mess by May 10th??? So ... citizens ... it is up to you to find accurate information on your own, and do your best to disregard what media is "telling" you. Just a suggestion. Here is Ms. Hersey's announcement, and her Facebook page is easily found as well ..
     

     

    STU professor running for mayor to ‘challenge’ the way things are


    (Alishya Weiland/AQ)

    Corinne Saunders Hersey has been a sociology professor at St. Thomas University for 17 years. Now she’s running for mayor of Fredericton. She said Mike O’Brien’s time as mayor didn’t meet her expectations.

    Running for mayor was something Hersey had considered for a while and after the City of Fredericton budget meeting in December 2019, she knew there was no turning back.

    “[You get to] that moment where you say, ‘Okay, I have to let it go’ or ‘I have to do it.’”

    She said she disagrees on how the money was distributed.

    “The New Brunswick Provincial Exhibition gets no money from the city. The homeless shelters don’t get much of anything from the city.”

    She said Fredericton could also be doing more to combat climate change, help reduce homelessness and provide better public transportation.

    “If don’t get in, then I don’t get in. But at least I can raise some of the concerns that I feel in the debate.”

    Hersey has yet to submit her nomination papers because she said she wants to formulate a plan first and discuss things with her team. She plans to submit the papers this week.

    A lifelong Fredericton resident, she’s been heavily involved in politics most of her life. She is member of the Council of Canadians and grew up in a political household, but has never been a politician.

    “I never ran for politics, and I didn’t think I would ever have to. But I just didn’t see anybody else that was going to challenge what was happening.”

    She said she was convinced to vote for O’Brien after asking him questions about student housing and jobs for students.

    Hersey said he wanted to tackle these issues and she was happy with his answers but hasn’t seen him do anything to move forward on past promises.

    She said the mayor’s task force on homelessness was a good start to solving some of the city’s issues but that it hasn’t seen any movement.

    Part of her decision to run was based on the municipal government’s reaction to the Officers’ Square protests. Many groups including Save Officers’ Square and the Calithumpians theatre troupe came together to ask the city to reconsider their plans to cut down trees and renovate the square.

    “10,000 people signed a petition that wasn’t even heard in city council.”

    Even if she wins, Hersey said real change won’t happen unless some different city councillors are elected. That isn’t possible when some councillors for certain districts run unchallenged.

    Hersey said she thinks more young people should run for city council and vote in municipal elections.

    “I think they pay more attention to provincial not thinking that municipal holds a lot of power, but you have to start somewhere.”

    Hand-picked Higgs officials living outside Fredericton cost taxpayers extra

     

    1 deputy got help with Fredericton housing and for drives to 24 meetings in Saint John area, where she lived

     

    Robert Jones· CBC News· Posted: Feb 22, 2021 6:00 AM AT

     


    Yennah Hurley was personally recruited by Premier Blaine Higgs to advise on tourism matters and eventually run the Tourism Department as its deputy minister. She lives in Quispamsis and billed the province for 24 trips to Saint John in 2020 to attend in-person meetings. (CBC archives)

    Two New Brunswick deputy ministers who have been commuting to Fredericton from the Saint John area to run their departments accumulated thousands of dollars in accommodation and mileage expenses last year moving back and forth between the cities, records show.

    John Logan, who lives in Saint John and heads the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure, billed the province $9,219.08 for 85 overnight stays in Fredericton in 2020 to attend to business at department headquarters, according to his public expense records.  

    In a statement, Nicolle Carlin, director of communications for Premier Blaine Higgs, said Logan regularly works in Fredericton, where his job is headquartered, but often chooses not to commute home at the end of the day.

    "John Logan works mostly out of the Fredericton office," said the statement. "When he's in Fredericton, he usually stays in the city for more than a day."

    Yennah Hurley, a deputy minister who runs the Department of Tourism, Heritage and Culture, owns a home in Quispamsis.  


    New Brunswick government officials have largely switched to online meetings since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, including Higgs, shown here last week speaking with the New Brunswick Nurses Union online from his office last week. (Government of New Brunswick's Twitter)

    Hurley was paid $9,550 to offset Fredericton accommodation expenses in 2020 but also billed over $900 in mileage charges for 24 trips she made up and down Highway 7 to attend meetings close to her home in Saint John.

    The Saint John meetings were eight times more than the number in any other location Hurley visited outside of her office in Fredericton, but her department insists the charges were for legitimate government business.    

    These were expenses for meetings related to the duties of the acting Deputy Minister at the time," Erika Jutras, the department's acting communications director, said in an email about the Saint John meetings.

    Jutras dismissed questions about whether holding so many meetings in Saint John and submitting expense claims for them could be seen as an attempt to have the province subsidize Hurley's commute between Fredericton and her home in Quispamsis.

    The expense reports do show the largest number of the Saint John meetings, 11, are dated as happening on a Friday and most occurred after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March, when many government gatherings moved online. 

    Hurley and Logan are among at least four senior officials hand-picked by Higgs to serve in key government roles who have not moved to Fredericton and whose expense accounts have included a variety of enhanced charges as a result.

    Paul D'Astous is principal secretary to Higgs. He owns a home in Quispamsis and for most of 2020 received a $955 monthly 'living allowance,' one of four senior Higgs government officials paid extra to subsidize the cost of working, but not living, in Fredericton. (CBC archives)

    In similar but separate arrangements, the premier's chief of staff and deputy minister, Louis Léger, and his principal secretary, Paul D'Astous, were paid the same $955 monthly "living allowance" as Hurley through much of 2020 to defray costs of staying in Fredericton without the requirement to provide receipts.

    D'Astous, like Hurley, maintains a home in Quispamsis, while Léger has a residence in Sainte-Marie-de-Kent. Logan,  who once served with Higgs as an executive at Irving Oil, lives in Saint John.

    Earlier this month, Higgs told CBC News that Hurley no longer qualifies for the living allowance since being named the permanent deputy minister of her department in December. Carlin said D'Astous also no longer qualifies after recently signing a new employment contract.


    Louis Léger, chief of staff in the Premier's Office, has a home in Sainte-Marie-de-Kent. (CBC)

    Logan does still qualify for payment of his Fredericton living expenses as does Léger, which Carlin said has been the case for previous chiefs of staff..

    "Mr. Leger's position is not a permanent position with the civil service," said a statement issued by Carlin. 

    "It is a job with a fixed time limit, and therefore most people who accept such a position would not move their home and family."

So this should not be happening again."

    Methinks he lost that argument because Higgy maintains that Logan does still qualify for payment of his Fredericton living expenses N'esy Pas?

    Top legal official contradicts Higgs on duty to consult to First Nations

    Deputy attorney-general says 'the duty to consult is quite clear' after premier called it vague



    Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Oct 11, 2019 5:00 AM AT




    Premier Blaine Higgs said earlier this year the legal requirement for Indigenous consultations on resource projects was vague. (CBC)

    The top official in charge of the province's legal battles has contradicted Premier Blaine Higgs on the duty to consult Indigenous people on resource projects.

    Earlier this year, Higgs expressed frustration over the legal requirement for consultations, calling it vague.

    But John Logan, the deputy attorney-general, told the legislature's Public Accounts committee on Thursday that "the duty to consult is quite clear."

    He was responding to a question from Progressive Conservative MLA Stewart Fairgrieve, who said he attended a parliamentary conference in western Canada that featured discussions about how the requirement is "ambiguous" and "confusing."

    "With respect, I would disagree with you," said Logan, an experienced lawyer whose non-partisan role is to oversee the Office of the Attorney General. Its lawyers represent the government in most court cases.


    John Logan, the deputy attorney-general, told the legislature’s Public Accounts committee on Thursday that 'the duty to consult is quite clear.' The statement contradicts that of Blaine Higgs, who said the issue is vague. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

    "The duty to consult is established over the course of decades of case law, but it's quite clearly articulated."

    Logan said the duty to consult can be applied differently in different parts of the country, depending on whether there are treaties with Indigenous nations.

    And he said there is also a "sliding scale" to the obligation, depending on an assessment of how much a government action would infringe on treaty or title rights.
    In June, Higgs revealed that his cabinet had approved a regulation to exempt the Sussex area from a province-wide moratorium on shale gas development.


    Several Indigenous leaders condemned that decision, which they said happened without any consultations.

    In the legislature, Aboriginal Affairs Minister Jake Stewart said consultations weren't needed until after the cabinet decision. "We didn't even have a regulation until now so there was nothing to talk about," he said.


    In his speech at annual national meeting of the Assembly of First Nations, Premier Blaine Higgs repeated his view that the duty to consult Indigenous people on resource projects, a legal obligation upheld by several Supreme Court of Canada decisions, remains vague and undefined. (CBC)

    But Higgs said in a speech at the national conference of the Assembly of First Nations in Fredericton in July that the government didn't have "a clear understanding of just what consultation means."

    He told reporters at the conference, "It's not well-defined so you don't know when you're done, and the timelines to achieve it.  No one is arguing the point of going through the process. It's just, let's understand what the process is."

    Fracking expansion plan halted


    In August, Corridor Resources said it was putting on hold its search for investors for an expansion of its operations in Sussex. It said the province wasn't able to consider its application to lift the moratorium pending Indigenous consultations.
    Corridor had extracted natural gas in the area since 1999 but suspended fracking after the previous Liberal government imposed the moratorium in 2016.

    Logan told the committee that there's been a lot of public discussion "as to what we have to do as a minimum, what we should be doing as a norm, what we should be doing if we really want to build a relationship that we need to build with the Indigenous communities."
     

    Corridor Resources, which had plans for hydraulic fracturing near Sussex, said in August it will spend its money outside New Brunswick. (Pierre Fournier/CBC)

    The province's policy on the duty to consult, available online, says the obligation exists "when the Crown is considering an action or decision that may adversely affect Aboriginal and treaty rights" under Section 35 of the Constitution.

    That includes the creation or implementation of regulations and policies that could "negatively impact the traditional use of Crown land and resources or the way a right is exercised."
    The five-page document says First Nations are also expected to participate in consultations in good faith.

    Higgs complained in July that Wolastoqi chiefs that had signed an accommodation agreement with the province in 2017 about the Sisson mine were still saying they were against the project. He suggested they should return the $3 million they received from the province.

    Chief Patricia Bernard of Madawaska Maliseet First Nation said in July that agreeing to not challenge the mine in court was not the same thing as consenting to it, and did not limit her ability to say she didn't like the project.

    N.B. owes bank $50 million for Atcon
    CBC News · Posted: Mar 15, 2010 3:51 PM AT

    A lawyer for the New Brunswick government says the province will have to pay Scotiabank $50 million and then seek repayment as a creditor of the Atcon group of companies.

    Under the terms of a loan guarantee to Atcon, the government will pay the bank as early as this week, John Logan told the Court of Queen's Bench in Miramichi on Monday.

    A court-appointed monitor was also expected to report to the court Monday on ways to restructure the Miramichi-based company or sell assets.

    Five Atcon companies were placed into receivership on March 1, while another five were placed under creditor protection.

    Atcon owes creditors about $250 million.

    The company's main lender, Scotiabank, called in its loans on Feb. 25.

    Last year, the New Brunswick government extended three different loan guarantees to Atcon worth a combined $50 million.

    I think it's pretty CLEAR how Mr. Higgs sees this consultation thing...if he doesn't understand it, that means Consultations are vague. I'm sorry, Mr. Higgs but that sounds dangerously like something DJT would say. If a premier doesn't understand something it's up to that premier to get the experts to explain it to him/her. Until he DOES understand a policy neither he nor his/her government should state a policy nor act on faulty understanding. That, Mr. Higgs, is just one of the reasons you have those experts employed in government departments.

    I don't understand what is not clear in this consultation process or is it just a stalling TACTIC! Who has the authority as if our Indigenous consultations on resource projects was vague. Who is stalling? Deputy attorney-general says 'the duty to consult is quite clear!

    President’s Message by Justin Robichaud

    December 03, 2018

    I would like to begin by thanking my predecessor Tina Lagacé Rivard for her service as President over the past year. Our immediate past president has set a standard that I will strive to achieve. I know that Tina made many sacrifices, personal and professional, on our behalf during her tenure. Tina participated in meetings both at the national and local levels as well as representing us at numerous ceremonies around the province over the past year. Thank you Tina for all of your hard work and I look forward to having you remain on the executive in the role of past president over the next year.

    As we open the chapter on this new term, we are also very excited to acknowledge our own Kevin Haché of Caraquet who recently joined the National Board. I’m sure you all join me in congratulating Kevin and wishing him all the best as he embarks on this challenge.

    I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate several of our past presidents on their receipt of the Queens Counsel designation. Recipients included Scott Brittain, Ed Keyes and Deloras O’Neill. Current Counsel Member Rob Dysart was also a recipient. I was honored to represent CBA NB at the ceremony at the Legislative Assembly to offer congratulations to all the recipients on behalf of the profession.

    As we embark on a new term for CBA Council and the Executive, an ambitious agenda is forming. Recent deliberations have begun the work of prioritizing our work for the year 2018-2019. Key priorities that have been identified include advocacy, sections and member engagement. An emphasis will be placed on collaborative leadership and relationship building, such as strengthening our relationship with Government, the Law Society of NB, Law Schools, the Judiciary and other stakeholders. Council established the Strategic Priority Implementation Team (SPIT) which is comprised of the executive and members of Council. There will be more information to follow as we begin our work in the coming months.

    On the advocacy front, we would like to congratulate the Honorable Andrea Anderson-Mason, Q.C., on her recent appointment as Minister of Justice and Attorney General. We look forward to meeting with the Honorable Minister and the new Deputy Attorney General, John Logan, Q.C. I would like to thank John for his contributions to CBA NB over the last number of years; his willingness to contribute and sage advice has been appreciated.

    We recognize the value and importance of Sections and see the opportunity to increase the benefits to members through Sections. We have much to be proud of in the work our Sections achieve, whether in terms of contribution to PD, advocacy or law reform – Sections truly are the life blood of CBA. While we will continue to support Sections as we always have, we believe that Section membership has waned. In an effort to re-ignite Section engagement, we are revising our section enrollment process. In order to accomplish our goal we are calling on all members to complete the new online Section enrollment form before December 31, 2018

    SECTION ENROLLMENT FORM

    Capturing your current preferences ensures that you are receiving the information and services for those areas of law that are of most relevant to your practice.  

    Finally, increased member engagement is the overarching goal of our association for this year.  Our goal is to increase Section participation and establish a network within the legal community that ensures our voice is present.

    N.B. owes bank $50 million for Atcon
    Last Updated: Monday, March 15, 2010 | 3:42 PM AT CBC News

    Atcon in receivership
    Business guru says Atcon was beyond help
    Atcon faces court hearing
    Atcon refinancing adds more risk to N.B.
    Atcon faces bankruptcy filings by bank A lawyer for the New Brunswick
    government says the province will have to pay Scotiabank $50 million
    and then seek repayment as a creditor of the Atcon group of companies.

    Under the terms of a loan guarantee to Atcon, the government will pay
    the bank as early as this week, John Logan told the Court of Queen's
    Bench in Miramichi on Monday.

    A court-appointed monitor was also expected to report to the court
    Monday on ways to restructure the Miramichi-based company or sell
    assets.

    Five Atcon companies were placed into receivership on March 1, while
    another five were placed under creditor protection.

    Atcon owes creditors about $250 million.

    The company's main lender, Scotiabank, called in its loans on Feb. 25.

    Last year, the New Brunswick government extended three different loan
    guarantees to Atcon worth a combined $50 million.

    AGAIN


          First I talked to one of your dumb Commissionaire pals as usual
    then I talked to a decent lowly Cpl who tried to play dumb as well. However
    he and I
    managed to a serious pow wow about you, the CSE (the boss John Adams in
    particular) and of course your butt buddy former Major Barry Winters.

          The liberals and their neo con cohorts in "The Place to Be" may be in
    hot water with the common folks over their pensions, NB Power, Caisse
    Populaires and Conflicts of Interests etc but I am certain all
    liberals in Canada would agree that Harper is in a lot more trouble
    for supporting the war mongering zionist etc. In my humble opinion the
    blog of Mr Baconfat's is a definite breach of National Security N'esy
    Pas John Boy Adams of the CSE?

    FYI this is me talking about your fellow lawyers and bureaucrats etc and
    all your DND pals as well about a year ago

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bpss4iHhyrc

    This your pal Mr Baconfat (aka Major Barry Winters) Correct?

    The evil Zionist can say all he wishes about his covert actions for
    liberal mandates and I enjoy reading it but threaten to kill my kids
    and I see red. Furthermore tell me who is he to speak for the CSE and
    the RCMP about mean old me? Like Col Logan he claims to be retired
    from the DND does he not? However I say once a FED always a FED. (I
    hold that opinion about "The Not So Good" Dr Bill Deagle and of course
    you too Mr Adams) What say you now Margaret Bloodworth and Ward
    Elcock? OR Anyone ? Anyone??? Me also thinks that Mr Baconfat should
    keep such heavy duty secrets to himself or there is truly a serious
    breach in National Security published on the Internet never mind what
    the crooked old judge working with the Torys law firm has to say about
    anything . N'esy Pas IGGY and Johnny Boy Laskin?

    What does Amerika, the "Truther" movment, "God" and retards have to do
    with Canada

    We do not have to worry about comment from Little Dean and Dave...they
    are to uneducated to understand most posts

    So have you seen them, been annoyed or insulted by them, have you
    smelled their disease? Have you ever crossed the "medicine line" and
    seen some Yank being taken into custody because he just has..."this
    constitutional right to bear arms"...in Canada. I remember years ago
    when the debate was on in Canada, about there being weapons of mass
    destruction in Iraq. Our American 'friends" demanded that Canada join
    into "the Coalition of the Willing.

    American "veterans" and sportscasters loudly denounced Canada for NOT
    buying into the US policy. At the time I was serving as a planner at
    NDHQ and with 24 other of my colleagues we went to Tampa SOUCOM HQ to
    be involved in the planning in the planning stages of the op....and to
    report to NDHQ, that would report to the PMO upon the merits of the
    proposed operation.

    There was never at anytime an existing target list of verified sites
    where there were deployed WMD. Coalition assets were more than
    sufficient for the initial strike and invasion phase but even at that
    point in the planning, we were concerned about the number of "boots on
    the ground" for the occupation (and end game) stage of an operation in
    Iraq.

    We were also concerned about the American plans for occupation plans
    of Iraq because they at that stage included no contingency for a
    handing over of civil authority to a vetted Iraqi government and
    bureaucracy. There was no detailed plan for Iraq being "liberated" and
    returned to its people...nor a thought to an eventual exit plan.

    This was contrary to the lessons of Vietnam but also to the military
    thought, that folks like Colin Powell and "Stuffy" Leighton and others
    illucidated upon. "What's the mission" how long is the mission, what
    conditions are to met before US troop can redeploy?

    Prime Minister Jean Chretien and the PMO were even at the very
    preliminary planning stages wary of Canadian involment in an Iraq
    operation....History would prove them correct. The political preesure
    being applied on the PMO from the George W Bush administration was
    onerus

    American military assets were extremely overstretched, and Canadian
    military assets even moreso It was proposed by the PMO that Canadian
    naval platforms would deploy to assist in naval quarantene operations
    in the Gulf and that Canadian army assets would deploy in Afghanistan
    thus permitting US army assets to redeploy for an Iraqi operation....

    The PMO thought that "compromise would save Canadian lives and liberal
    political capitial.. and the priority of which ....not neccessarily in
    that order. Essentially Canada detemined to stay out of Iraq, paid the
    price, of a larger role in Afghanistan to enable US military assets to
    redeploy to Iraq.

    The US op in Afghanistan evolved from a US op, to a UN op, to a NATO /
    ISAF op. NATO countries other than Canada and the UK shun combat
    operations in Afghanistan..their rules of deployment and engagement
    mitigate against NATO troops engaging the Taliban. By design I am
    quite sure.

    But now the American Iraq op, is a great success. The "surge" worked.
    But alas now 127 Canadian soldiers are dead. The 2011 deadline is
    coming nigh....and President Barak Obama and NATO want Canada to
    consider extending the deployment of Canadian troops. The motives are
    different. The US wants to... needs to, as matter of national
    security, to defeat insurgency in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Our
    European allies want Canada to remain and continue to "punch above its
    weight" so European soldiers do not have to actually fight or die.

    That begs a few questions: "Nations do not have friends, nations have
    interests" -Henry Kissinger. Is American national security re
    terrorism in Afghanistan and Pakistan compatable with Canadian
    national interests? If this country, Canada is going to be a
    continuing ally in "the war against terror"....should not our "friends
    and neighbours across the medicine line be more amenable in matters of
    trade, or just living up to their free trade agreements. If our
    "friends and neighbours" to the south want Canadians to fight side by
    side...maybe that 7 % Softwood lumber tariff was a mistake...or the
    buy American provision in the currant stimulus plan ought to be re
    thought.

    Our American "friends" give Israel roughly 3 billion dollars a year to
    be spent buying weapons systems from US defense contactors...to
    survive (both Israel and US defense industries) Perhaps US dollars
    should flow to Canada to buy weapons systems and patrol aircraft and
    naval platforms...after all, aren't we your "friends and allies"?

    There is nothing similar with American culture, and politics between
    Canada and the US. Canada evolved into nation status and the US,
    revolted violently. This difference in the means we became
    nations...has greatly defined who and what we are.

    Our American "friends" look upon Canada as cultural, economic and
    political satrap.... Now to their great consternation they are finding
    out... that is NOT the case . Nothing good came to Canada by way of
    America. The military "schewir punct" should be defense of our
    continental shelf and the arctic.

    Canada does need to stop shipping unrefined bitumen to the US and
    totally refine it here and start building a pipeline for bitumen to
    Canada's west coast to sell to Asian and the Chinese market. It is
    more than past time to understand ..our American "friends" are not our
    friends at all.

    Or else it is: Bend over here it comes again.....KY anyone?

    Play dumb if you wish Mr Logan but according the Chucky Leblanc's
    blogger buddy Richy Baby Harris this is you CORRECT? If so then it is
    a small wonder that you not come to the phone in November of 2006 I
    have been dealing with the crooks in  the CSE and the NSA etc since
    2001 EH Johnny Boy?

    BTW I got this info from Richy Baby's blog.

          Your assistant Katherine Wilson really pissed me off after a
    long wait on hold to talk to you on the phone today. I read the news
    today and just shook my head at the nonsense of it all. Wilson claimed
    that she was well aware of my matters and that all of your associates
    employed as Crown Attorneys have advised me to the best of your
    abilities. How can that be? I have not been able to speak to any of
    you since I spoke to the crook, Jeff Mockler over two years ago and
    that was immediately after I came screaming out of jail in the USA. I
    saw red as I read his words to me then. They were obviously sent when
    he thought I would never get out of that Yankee jail. To date I have
    not received one response in writng let alone speak to anyone employed
    by the Crown as legal counsel, Despite the unbelievable volume of
    material I have faxed emailed and delivered in hand and byway of the
    Canada Post, you all failed to act within the scope of your employment
    and certainly do not deserve a raise. In fact you should all go to
    jail, not pass go and not allowed to accept even 200, dollars more
    from the taxpayers of New Brunswick.

       The text of the fowarded email I sent last night to you political
    bosses and many others says enough about my pending lawsuits. the
    Governor General of Canada is the highest authority in Canada who
    speaks in the name of the Crown N'est Pas? Well I received that letter
    mere days before I was falsely imprisoned in the USA.

        Well you can easily see that she affirms over two years ago that I
    had done the right thing with regards to provincial law enforcement
    authorities just as Deputy Prime Minister Landslide Annie McLellan had
    suggested I do before I came back home to New Brunswick to run for a
    federal seat in the malevolent 38th Parlaiment.

        Wheras you refused to talk to me today Johnny Boy Logan, may I
    suggest that you talk to the RCMP or some of your associates starting
    with Jeff Mockler. I have had enough of your obvious malice. I will
    leave you to wonder as to who else will read my opinion of you and
    your legal cohorts in short order. Cya'll in Court.

    Daily Gleaner | Courts/Crime
    As published on page A3 on November 26, 2005


    By DON MACPHERSON
    dmacpher@dailygleaner.com

    A provincial court judge is worried the trend of drug addicts committing
    robberies will get someone killed, and it will probably be someone
    committing the crime, not the victims.

    Judge Graydon Nicholas presided over the sentencing of Jonathan Edward
    Feeney, 35, of Smithfield on Friday.

    The judge handed Feeney a prison sentence of two years plus a day for
    robbing an employee of the Smoke Shop at the Atlantic Superstore on Smythe
    Street on Oct. 13.

    Nicholas said it's just a matter of time before someone committing a robbery
    in the Fredericton area is shot.

    He said it's possible retail and service-business employees targeted for
    robbery will arm themselves, as is often the case in the United States.

    "If it happens south of the border, it's going to make its way up here," the
    judge said.

    The number of robberies in Fredericton has spiked in the past couple of
    years, and they've been attributed to drug addicts desperate to get cash to
    score their next fix.

    Nicholas said these robberies have been small-time crimes but they carry
    significant consequences.

    Defence lawyer Ron Morris said Feeney became addicted to prescription
    painkillers after he was injured some time ago.

    "We're looking at another pathetic situation ... that's arisen from
    prescription drugs," he said.

    He said Feeney has spent $75,000 - stemming from the sale of a home and a
    motor-vehicle accident settlement - on drugs in a short time.

    Feeney's pre-sentence report indicated he had a good upbringing, Morris
    said, but drugs ruined his life.

    Nicholas pointed out that a happy childhood can rarely help once someone
    gets hooked.

    "Addiction to prescribed medicine does not discriminate," the judge said.

    At trial, the court heard that Feeney entered the Smoke Shop, went behind
    the counter, told the female clerk he was messed up and demanded money.

    Crown prosecutor William Corby said the threat wasn't explicit, but it still
    constituted a robbery.

    Morris said Feeney pleaded guilty right away to a string of crimes he
    committed in March and April.

    He admitted to his actions at the Smoke Shop, the defence lawyer said, but
    pleaded not guilty because he maintained it was a simple theft, not robbery.

    Corby said Feeney was sentenced to 16 months in jail for that spree of
    crimes - which included a break-in and several thefts.

    The prosecutor said that since the robbery was a part of that spree, the
    stiffer federal sentence should run concurrently with the previous sentence.

    "There was a stretch of time when Mr. Feeney was out of control," Corby
    said.

    He also pointed out that although he committed a robbery, there was no
    weapon or actual violence, just the implied threat of violence.

    "In this particular case, the degree of violence is at the low end of the
    scale," Corby said.

    Both he and Morris agreed a minimum federal sentence of two years plus a day
    was warranted.

    In addition to that prison sentence, Nicholas also imposed a mandatory
    10-year firearms prohibition and ordered that a DNA sample be taken from
    Feeney for a national criminal database.

    N.B. judge rejects CD analysis as evidence in child porn case
    Last Updated: Thursday, August 9, 2007 | 3:32 PM AT
    CBC News
    A provincial court judge ruled Thursday against the Crown's attempt to enter
    a computer analysis of a CD as evidence in the trial of a Fredericton
    broadcaster charged with accessing child pornography.

    Dennis Melanson, 49, once hosted Melanson Live on Rogers Cable 10 and worked
    as radio station Fred FM's news director until he was charged in 2005.

    Crown witness Marcus Elson, a systems developer at Rogers Cable, told the
    court Thursday he found a single image of child pornography in a temporary
    internet file on a Rogers Television computer. The image was stored under
    the user name belonging to Dennis Melanson.

    Elson said at that point he stopped his search and saved the entire
    temporary file to a CD, which he handed to Rogers corporate investigator
    Gary Chaters. Chaters then gave it to Fredericton police.

    In testimony on Wednesday, the first day of the trial, Fredericton police
    said they no longer had possession of the CD, but that the Crown had a
    computer analysis of its contents. Crown prosecutor Kathryn Gregory tried to
    convince Judge Graydon Nicholas to accept it as evidence.

    Nicholas ruled against that, saying in the absence of the CD the analysis
    would be prejudicial to the defence.

    On Wednesday, defence lawyer Howard Peters had argued about the
    admissibility of a 2005 police interview with Melanson.

    Fredericton police Const. Robb Costello testified that he interviewed
    Melanson in May 2005 during an investigation of one of Melanson's co-workers
    at Rogers television.

    Cameraman Gary Boole pleaded guilty to possession and distribution of child
    pornography in the fall of 2005.

    During Melanson's May 2005 interview at the police station, Costello told
    the TV host he was investigating computer use at Rogers Cable, and asked
    Melanson what he knew.

    Costello said he was surprised when Melanson told him he thought he knew
    what Costello was talking about, and that he was planning a show on the
    subject of child pornography. Costello said Melanson admitted to looking at
    questionable websites in his research for the show.

    Costello said he told Melanson things had just changed, and excused himself
    from the interview room. When Costello returned, he told Melanson he was now
    under investigation for accessing child pornography.

    The Crown said Melanson's statements that day were voluntary, and should be
    admitted in court.

    However, Peters argued police didn't let Melanson know if he was a witness
    or a suspect in the investigation, and that Melanson felt obligated to talk
    based on a comment made by Costello.

    Decision reserved
    Nicholas reserved his decision on the admissibility of the interview until
    later in the trial.

    RCMP Const. Jacques Boucher also testified that an investigation revealed
    two user IDs with access to the pornographic images, and that Melanson had
    access to both.

    Boucher said he was once a guest of Melanson's on his television show, and
    that following the show's taping he had a discussion with Melanson about
    doing a future show on child pornography.

    Boucher said that was in January or February 2005, right around the time the
    first images appeared on the computer.

    Rogers officials are expected to testify later in the trial.

    The lawyers within OLIPHANT COMMISSION should study every link and
    every document I send them rather closely begining with the files with
    the following links. Myriam Corbeil and Giuseppe Battista should
    recall my doing with the Gomery Commission and Oliphant should rember
    me me from my doings with the

    "Montreal criminal lawyer Giuseppe Battista concurs. He says that the
    Quebec Court of Appeal appears to have "established the norm that in
    principle" when abuse of trust and the public purse is involved in
    matters of large-scale fraud a jail term is "required."

    "But it is important to note that the court maintained the quantum of
    the sentence," noted Battista. "In other words, they didn't touch the
    amount of the sentence but they said that it should be served in jail
    and not in the community."

          What you say is true, that is why I must sue.. We all know why
    your fellow haughty snotty Upper Canadian reporters have ignored the
    Code of Ethics for journalists for years. The freedom of the press is
    a myth. They do what they are told. N'est Pas? However your publicly
    held company is in a world of trouble with me.
          If you doubt me ask Marie Beyette your company's
    Vice-President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary to ask the
    following dudes about my issues about Tax Fraud Securities Fraud, Bank
    Fraud and Murder. Rest assured the RCMP ain't gonna tell you shit.
    Theses dudes  are your directors and I have already proven many time
    that their companies are as crooked as Hell. The Torys oufit was the
    most fun of all just ask Lord Conrad Black and his sneaky lawyer Eddy
    Greenspan about the doings between me and the corrupt Yankee US
    Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald just acrost the 49th from you.

                          Your assistant Katherine Wilson really pissed me
    off after a long wait on hold to talk to you on the phone today. I
    read the news today and just shook my head at the nonsense of it all.
    Wilson claimed that she was well aware of my matters and that all of
    your associates employed as Crown Attorneys have advised me to the
    best of your abilities. How can that be? I have not been able to speak
    to any of you since I spoke to the crook, Jeff Mockler over two years
    ago and that was immediately after I came screaming out of jail in the
    USA. I saw red as I read his words to me then. They were obviously
    sent when he thought I would never get out of that Yankee jail. To
    date I have not received one response in writng let alone speak to
    anyone employed by the Crown as legal counsel, Despite the
    unbelievable volume of material I have faxed emailed and delivered in
    hand and byway of the Canada Post, you all failed to act within the
    scope of your employment and certainly do not deserve a raise. In fact
    you should all go to jail, not pass go and not allowed to accept even
    200, dollars more from the taxpayers of New Brunswick.
                       The text of the fowarded email I sent last night to
    you political bosses and many others says enough about my pending
    lawsuits. the Governor General of Canada is the highest authority in
    Canada who speaks in the name of the Crown N'est Pas? Well I received
    that letter mere days before I was falsely imprisoned in the USA.
                        Well you can easily see that she affirms over two
    years ago that I had done the right thing with regards to provincial
    law enforcement authorities just as Deputy Prime Minister Landslide
    Annie McLellan had suggested I do before I came back home to New
    Brunswick to run for a federal seat in the malevolent 38th Parlaiment.
                        Wheras you refused to talk to me today Johnny Boy
    Logan, may I suggest that you talk to the RCMP or some of your
    associates starting with Jeff Mockler. I have had enough of your
    obvious malice. I will leave you to wonder as to who else will read my
    opinion of you and your legal cohorts in short order. Cya'll in Court.

                                        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

    a term not exceeding two years.(2) Any proceedings in respect of a

                                    Crown lawyers receive help in fight
    for pay raise


                                    Last Updated: Wednesday, November 1,
    2006 | 9:26 AM AT


                                    CBC News <http://www.cbc.ca/news/credit.html>

                                    Lawyers who work for the New Brunswick
    government say a previously secret report may help their case for a
    bigger pay raise.
                                    The lawyers had to go to court to see
    the report, which proves they're underpaid, they say.
                                    Government lawyers aren't unionized
    and can't strike, so have no leverage in asking the government to
    raise their pay.
                                    Last year, the government commissioned
    a study of what Crown lawyers make across the country as part of a
    review of salaries.
                                    The government wouldn't give the Crown
    Counsel Association a copy of the report when it was done, so the
    association used the Right to Information Act to take the government
    to court, and a judge ordered the report released.
                                    Association president John Logan says
    the report appears to show government lawyers here are paid less than
    their counterparts in other provinces.
                                    "The association of Crown counsel are
    reviewing the report and intend to use it as background information."
                                    The association is hoping to meet with
    the new attorney general to talk about the report, but government
    spokesperson Christina Winsor says a good pay plan is already in
    place.
                                    "The current pay plan for the lawyers
    is an average of three per cent a year over four years, and that is
    consistent and slightly above inflation rates, which is averaging
    about two per cent right now."
                                    Winsor says a new study will be
    commissioned in 2009 when the current schedule of pay increases
    expires

    Two New Brunswick Deputy Ministers Cause Huge Expenses To Taxpayers


    Two New Brunswick deputy ministers, one from St. John and the other from Quispamsis, have spent thousands of dollars for accommodation and mileage while traveling back forth between the cities. The deputy ministers have traveling back and forth to Fredericton from the Saint John area in order to run their departments.

    John Logan, who heads the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure, has cost the province $9,219.08. All of this money is billed for 85 overnight stays in Fredericton in 2020, where he went to attend business at department headquarters.

    Nicolle Carlin, director of communications for Premier Blaine Higgs, said that Logan works in Fredericton and that he often chooses not to commute home when he finishes his workday.

    “John Logan works mostly out of the Fredericton office,” said the statement. “When he’s in Fredericton, he usually stays in the city for more than a day.”

    Yennah Hurley, a deputy minister who runs the Department of Tourism, Heritage and Culture, also spends lots of money on accommodation and mileage expenses while traveling from Quispamsis to her workplace.

    She was paid $9,550 to offset Fredericton accommodation expenses in 2020 but also billed over $900 in mileage charges during that time. Although she has traveled 24 times down Highway 7, her department said that the charges were for legitimate government business.

    Similarly, the premier’s chief of staff and deputy minister, Louis Léger, and his principal secretary, Paul D’Astous, were paid the same $955 per month as a “living allowance”. D’Astous lives in Quispamsis while Léger is a resident of Sainte-Marie-de-Kent.

    Taxpayers foot bill for 2nd residence in Fredericton for deputy tourism minister

    Offered a government job? Move or commute, says David Coon

     

    Mia Urquhart· CBC News· Posted: Feb 10, 2021 4:52 PM AT

    When so many New Brunswickers are having a tough time keeping up with rent increases, the government shouldn't be paying for secondary residences for civil servants, says Green Party Leader David Coon. 

    "I don't see any rationale whatsoever for the accommodations of a deputy minister to be covered unless they're travelling for work," Coon said Wednesday. "Not coming to their job and residing somewhere else."

    According to the government's listing of senior executive travel and other expenses, Yennah Hurley, the deputy minister of the Department of Tourism, has a secondary residence paid for in Fredericton. 

    Hurley is a resident of Quispamsis, a community outside Saint John roughly an 80-minute drive from her government office. 

    "If you're a public servant and you accept a job somewhere else different than where you live, then you have two choices — move or commute," said Coon. 

    "But taxpayers shouldn't be paying for secondary accommodation or secondary lodging to be able to do your job." 

    Green Party Leader David Coon said it's simple: if you're offered a job in the civil service, move or commute. (Graham Thompson/CBC)

    While cabinet ministers who live in other parts of the province are normally granted a "monthly living allowance," a spokesperson for the Treasury Board said there is only one deputy minister receiving an allowance to cover accommodations in Fredericton. 

    According to her expense claims posted on the government's website, Hurley claims a $955 monthly living allowance, a monthly car allowance of $558.54, and a $690 monthly amount called an "expense allowance." All that adds up to a minimum monthly claim of $2,203.54. She also gets mileage per kilometre on top of that. 

    That's all in addition to her salary, which falls somewhere between $150,000 and $174,999, according to the government's listing of employee salaries

    Higgs again turns to outside consultants to reshape government

    Hurley's appointment by Premier Blaine Higgs drew criticism in 2019 from some who said she wasn't qualified to be a deputy minister, especially since the Tourism Department's budget had been slashed by 37 per cent. 

    "So you want to cut, but then the premier gets to hire a personal services consultant, a friend of his that he met two years ago," Liberal MLA Jacques LeBlanc said at the time.

    In 2012, Hurley toured the province in an RV and was a weekly guest on CBC's afternoon radio show Shift New Brunswick, dispensing tips about what to see and do around the province.

     

    This monthly claim — from last April, the height of the lockdown — shows the $955 claim for a secondary residence in Fredericton. (Government of New Brunswick)

    In 2019, amid criticism of her appointment, Hurley said her experience as a self-employed tourism operator was an advantage. 

    "Budget cuts allow people or challenge people to be more innovative or more creative," she said. "That's where I come in. I'm an entrepreneur. I've worked with tight budgets before."

    Hurley was asked for an interview on Wednesday, but so far, has not responded. A spokesperson for the department did respond, by email, to ask the nature of the request. Despite further inquires from CBC, no one replied by publication time.

    Jennifer Vienneau, the director of communications for Finance and Treasury Board, did respond to questions about expenses and said "certain ministerial staff," as stipulated in the terms and conditions of their employment, are entitled to claim the monthly living allowance. 

    She said deputy ministers on personal services contracts are responsible for negotiating their own terms and contracts with the Office of the Premier.

    Coon said it's not the first time he's complained about civil servants receiving a living allowance.


    Each month, Yennah Hurley claims a minimum of $2,203.54 on top of her annual salary that falls somewhere between $150,000 and $174,999, according to the government's website. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

    "I've been through this once before with a former minister of transportation and infrastructure staff who had their lodgings covered in Fredericton. So this should not be happening again."

    He said he would be concerned about such allowances at any time, but it's particularly incongruous now.

    Earlier this week, the NB Coalition for Tenants Rights asked the province for relief for tenants, including retroactive rent caps, a moratorium on evictions, and a rent bank fund for people struggling to pay the rent.

    Issues related to tenants' rights in New Brunswick have come to the forefront after a number of buildings in cities across the province were bought up, only to see rent increases.

    In the letter sent to Premier Blaine Higgs on Tuesday, the coalition recommended a two per cent rent cap retroactive to Sept. 1, 2020, be put in place until the COVID-19 vaccine is available to all, and the province reaches the green phase of recovery.

    In January, Higgs said there were no plans to implement rent controls during the pandemic, but he has asked for a report to see if rent increases are a widespread issue. 

    On Wednesday, in his state of the province address, Higgs acknowledged growing concerns about affordable housing and said there would be a 90-day review of the rental market in New Brunswick.

    Methinks Higgy et al must recall the lawyer Lt Co Logan's doings with
    WorkSafe, the military, the Commissionaires Atcon, Grant Thornton and
    the Bank of Nova Scotia to name but a few N'esy Pas?

    Methinks the lawyer Logan and everybody else knows why I am surprised

    N.B. electronic medical records system rollout botched, says auditor general

    Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson's report says business model doomed to failure


    Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Feb 23, 2021 10:14 AM AT

     


    Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson's report is critical of how New Brunswick tried to implement a system of electronic medical records. (Ed Hunter/CBC)

    The New Brunswick government botched the rollout of an electronic medical record system for doctors, leading to $26 million of provincial and federal money being spent on a tool that fewer than half of the province's physicians adopted.

    That's the finding in a new report by Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson.

    She says the business model, which saw the New Brunswick Medical Society go into business with a private-sector company to create Velante Inc. and sell the software, was doomed to failure from the outset. 

    "Such a structure was not capable of delivering value for taxpayers' dollars and was not in the best interest of New Brunswickers," Adair-MacPherson writes in the audit tabled at the legislature Tuesday morning.

    Even though there were clear signs the program was failing in 2015, the Health Department kept extending deadlines for doctors to sign up, and kept spending money, until finally ending Velante's exclusivity in 2019. 

    "We were unable to find valid reasons why the Department continued spending public money on a program obviously destined for failure," Adair-MacPherson says. 

    The medical society says Velante will be wound down as a company by the middle of this year, and the firm that sold it the software, Intrahealth Canada Ltd., will take over supporting the system.

    System still not fully integrated

    The medical society said in 2019 it would wind down Velante after the province terminated the venture's exclusivity.

    The province still has one of the lowest rates of doctors using electronic record and the system is still not fully integrated with the electronic record system used by hospitals and other health-care settings. 

    The main goal of the system was to share patient information from doctors' offices with the province's larger digital health record system. But only three of nine planned "integrations" were ever done, the audit says.

    What's more, Adair-MacPherson says, the same weak oversight that led to the Velante problems could create the same issues as doctors adopt other electronic record systems.

    "As the department transitions, they need to put in place these recommendations, so similar unfortunate events won't recur," she told reporters. 

    Doctors' group disagrees

    Medical society president Dr. Jeff Steeves disputed the suggestion that the $26 million had been wasted, arguing other provinces spent far more to persuade doctors to adopt electronic medical record systems.

    "Compared to other provinces, it's not a massive investment," he said. "Every dollar should be safeguarded and cherished, and I don't think they were necessarily wasted in this program." 

    Steeves, an ophthalmologist who doesn't use the Velante system itself because it "couldn't be specific enough for the needs that I had," said about 400 doctors are now using the system.

    He said that's about "half the total possible. … In that sense, this program met the goal."

    But Adair-MacPherson said that without most doctors feeding patient information to the provincial system, the program can't achieve a key goal: aggregating health data to spot trends and needs.

    Medical society CEO Anthony Knight said other provinces paid top-ups on doctor Medicare billings if they were using electronic records, but that didn't happen here. 

    "We were trying to do this in a responsible, budget-conscious manner."

    The province contracted the delivery of the medical records program to the medical society in 2012. The society and Accreon created Velante. 

    The venture was partly funded by Canada Health Infoway Inc., a not-for-profit organization created by the federal government to encourage the adoption of electronic medical records.

    It cost $24,000 per doctor to install. Doctors had to pay $8,000 themselves, with the province picking up $4,000 of the cost and Infoway covering the rest.

    By early 2014, only 240 out of 950 doctors had signed up for Velante, and Ted Flemming, the health minister at the time, said only 34 physicians were actually using it. 

    Some doctors complained they felt ostracized by their own organization when it forced them to adopt the tool.

    In September 2014, only 350 doctors were enrolled and only 90 were using the system. At that point the federal and provincial governments added more incentives, including subsidies for doctors to switch from systems they'd adopted before Velante was created.

    'Significant weaknesses'

    Adair-MacPherson found "significant weaknesses" in the province's monitoring of the program.

    "There were no performance measures and no progress reporting on program implementation," she writes.

    The medical society was required to submit quarterly reports to the health department updating the project status, targets achieved and timelines, "we found no evidence such reports were provided to the Department."

    Doctors who stopped using the system didn't have to pay back their subsidies, and the province often paid multiple times for the same system installation, such as in cases when one doctor stopped using it and passed it on to another doctor.

    Accreon made $9 million from the program before giving up its ownership stake in 2015. 

    Adair-MacPherson says Accreon's exit was one of several "clear signs the program was in jeopardy." Others included missed deadlines, concerns about lack of progress from Infoway and a cash shortfall at Velante that required the medical society to inject an extra $1 million.

    In 2017 the province agreed to hand Velante $2.8 million to help it keep operating while the program was reviewed.

    The first payment was $1.5 million and Velante was supposed to show the province how it was spent before it could get the remaining $1.3 million. But the second payment went ahead even though the information was never handed over.

    After the province ended Velante's exclusivity in 2019, it agreed to give the medical society $3 million to help doctors adopt other electronic medical record systems. 

    Among provinces that have adopted electronic medical records, only Newfoundland and Labrador had a lower rate of doctors using them as of 2017. Prince Edward Island has no system in place.

    Earlier problems

    New Brunswick's difficulties with electronic health records predate the creation of Velante and the attempted rollout of its software to doctors' offices.

    In 2011, CBC News revealed that an internal audit found potential conflicts of interest in the managing of contracts awarded for the creation of the electronic health record system for provincial institutions.

    It said external consultants hired as project managers were able to see invoices and other documents from competing companies, which gave them an unfair advantage in bidding on additional contracts.

    In May 2011 Health Minister Madeleine Dubé said better oversight had been put in place.

    "It's clean. Everything's been looked at. Controls were put in place, procedures are now established. Tighter evaluation is being done," she said then.

    NB Power management at fault for missed debt targets, says auditor general

    Debt reduction is "not a priority" at Crown corporation, said Kim Adair-Macpherson


    Robert Jones· CBC News· Posted: Feb 23, 2021 5:07 PM AT |

    Wishful thinking and poor forecasting have led NB Power to consistently miss profit and debt reduction targets in recent years with major new expenditures on the horizon, according to an unflattering assessment of the utility's financial management by New Brunswick Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson.

    "It is ultimately management's decision to reduce debt," said Adair-MacPherson, in a 65-page review of the utility she presented to MLAs on Tuesday.

    NB Power ended the 2020 fiscal year with $4.9 billion in net debt, about $700 million higher than targets set for it by the Legislature in 2013. That's a concern, according to the auditor general, because the province guarantees what NB Power owes and significant new spending requirements are approaching.

    "It's the largest contingent risk to the province,"  she told MLAs, about NB Power's liabilities.

    Debt reduction, her report said, is "not a top priority" of utility management, who she said failed to meet financial targets "year after year" by engaging in "optimistic" and "inaccurate forecasting" of utility expenses.

    The report notes how in 2016 the utility projected $549 million in profits for itself over the following four years in its planning but managed to achieve actual profits over the period of just $54 million, less than 10 per cent of what it had suggested.

    Damaging storms, spotty performance by the Point Lepreau nuclear generating station, low hydro production during dry summers and other problems have all taken turns upsetting the utility's financial plans, but Adair-MacPherson said those risks need to be better accounted for in corporate planning.

    She also expressed concern about whether the utility will be able to significantly improve its finances before 2027, when up to $4 billion in major expenditures will be needed for a rebuild of the Mactaquac Dam and other projects.

    "NB Power does not have a definitive plan to do this," she wrote about the need for significant short term debt reduction.

    Although NB Power charges some of the lowest rates for electricity in Atlantic Canada, Adair-MacPherson questioned whether that makes business sense given its financial position.

    "While maintaining a consistently low annual rate may be advantageous to NB Power consumers, it is likely contributing to its failure to meet the debt to equity target and ever-increasing debt level," she said.

    Adair-MacPherson's report comes as NB Power is coping with yet another major unbudgeted cost, the unexpected breakdown of the Point Lepreau nuclear generating station last month.


    The Point Lepreau nuclear generating station appeared to have its reliability issues resolved in the last two years, until the utility had a surprise problem with its turbines in January. (Submitted by NB Power)

    Turbine problems forced a shutdown of the plant in mid January and more than a month later it remains offline at an approximate cost to the utility of $1 million per day.

    In its response to the report, NB Power defended its forecasting practices and expressed confidence it will get its debt level down to the required 80 per cent level by 2027. However, it also promised to do better budgeting for trouble.

    "NB Power agrees to evaluate additional means to quantify the impact of significant future cost uncertainties outside management's control and to include this information in its planning process," said the utility's response.

    MLAs back auditor general unanimously in dispute with pension manager

     

    Vestcor now required to appear before the public accounts committee in the coming days

     
    Robert Jones· CBC News· Posted: Feb 24, 2021 4:04 PM AT

    New Brunswick MLAs from all parties voted Wednesday to call officials from the pension management agency Vestcor in front of the legislature's public accounts committee, in a striking show of support for Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson in her ongoing dispute with the former Crown entity.

    "Members of the government side support the motion fully keeping in the spirit and the theme of government members supporting the auditor general fully at all times," Progressive Conservative MLA Jeff Carr said before casting his own vote to summon Vestcor to answer questions.

    Although the motion to summon Vestcor was originally made Tuesday by People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin, Green Party MLA Megan Mitton also spoke in favour of it as did Liberal MLA Rob McKee.

    "I think it's important that we be able to ask questions of Vestcor," said McKee.

    People's Alliance MLA Michelle Conroy paused to make note of the unanimous support.

    "Thank you everybody. We love to see a collaborative working government," she said.

    Vestcor is the Fredericton-based organization set up to manage what is now $18 billion in New Brunswick government pension and other funds.

    Formally known as the New Brunswick Investment Management Corporation, it was created and owned by the province for more than two decades and subject to full review by the auditor general's office.

    However, in 2016 it was given its independence and rebranded as Vestcor, and when Adair-MacPherson requested access to a number of its financial documents beginning in late 2019, the agency refused.

    In a statement released this week, Vestcor accused the auditor general of attempting to overstep her authority now that it is on its own.

    "Our analysis and advice have indicated that the auditor general should be much more limited with respect to access to Vestcor related information than what had been requested, and we therefore have had to respectfully decline these requests," read the statement.

    The defiance has been received cooly by Adair-MacPherson, who is adamant Vestcor is still subject to provincial oversight, and this week she turned to MLAs for help enforcing her point.

    Billions of dollars in funds Vestcor invests impact the New Brunswick government's financial statements, and the province pays Vestcor millions of dollars in annual pension contributions on behalf of employees.

    In a written response to the vote by MLAs, Adair-MacPherson said she was pleased the public accounts committee so quickly agreed to call Vestcor to appear before it.

    "The hope of this recommendation, along with others in our report, is to prevent future disagreements over access so that my office can fulfil our legislated mandate as per Auditor General Act and conduct necessary audit work of over $18 billion in New Brunswick public sector related funds," she said.

    Last year, hundreds of millions of dollars in nuclear decommissioning and spent fuel management funds managed for NB Power by Vestcor lost value in the COVID-19 market crash in March. This transformed the utility's profit into a loss and drove down the province's surplus.

    Adair-MacPherson insists those financial ties mean Vestcor is still within her authority to audit.

    "Vestcor is an auditable entity because, in substance, it is both a service provider on behalf of the Province and a funding recipient from the Province," she wrote in her report.

    "The Auditor General is entitled to free access to information that relates to fulfilling her responsibilities, such as the audit of the Province's financial statements, which requires information from Vestcor."

    Adair-MacPherson also made the point that Vestcor obtained its independence in part on suggestions it would be freed up to market its expertise and manage funds for public bodies outside New Brunswick.

    "We have had preliminary discussions with some fairly big public sector pools of money, even outside the province," she quotes Vestcor CEO John Sinclair telling MLAs back in 2016.

    But no out-of-province pools of money have yet signed on, and Adair-MacPherson told MLAs they should be asking questions about that.

    "In our view, potential growth outside New Brunswick was one of the main arguments Vestcor and its representatives used to convince Legislators that Vestcor needed to be a private entity," Adair-MacPherson said in her report.

    "Since Vestcor has not grown its public sector client base outside of New Brunswick, an audit by the Auditor General could verify and publicly report on what steps Vestcor is taking to grow its public sector client base."

    The motion voted on by MLAs not only requires Vestcor to appear before the public accounts committee in the coming days but also puts it on a permanent list of "entities who are regularly called to appear before the committee."

    Auditor general recruits MLAs for help in dispute with N.B.'s pension body

    MLAs to vote Wednesday morning on summoning Vestcor to the legislature to answer questions

     

    Robert Jones· CBC News· Posted: Feb 24, 2021 6:43 AM AT

     


    Auditor General Kim Adair-MacPherson asked New Brunswick MLAs Tuesday to help her push Vestcor to release financial records so she can review its pay and performance processes. (CBC)

    New Brunswick's auditor general took a dispute over her authority to dig into the books of the body in charge of billions of dollars in New Brunswick government employee pension funds directly to MLAs Tuesday, a forum that has worked well for her in the past.

    Kim Adair-MacPherson told MLAs in her report to the legislature's public accounts committee she has been refused full access to the financial records of Vestcor to review its pay and performance, and requested their intervention to avoid a court fight with the body.

    "In our view, the Auditor General Act, as it stands, grants the Auditor General authority to audit Vestcor," said Adair-MacPherson in her report.

    "To prevent future disagreements over access, however, we propose a regulation be added to the Auditor General Act to explicitly list Vestcor as an auditable entity."

    Vestcor is the Fredericton-based organization set up to manage what is now $18 billion in New Brunswick government pensions and other funds. 

    It's jointly owned by the province's two largest public pension funds serving civil servants and teachers, but also oversees the retirement plans of hospital workers, nurses, Crown corporation employees, provincial court judges, MLAs and other groups. 

    Vestcor also manages other investment accounts, including University of New Brunswick endowment funds and nuclear waste and decommissioning funds for NB Power.

    It used to be a Crown agency but was given its independence in 2016, in part, so it could market its expertise and manage funds for other out-of-province public bodies.

    So far none have signed on, something the auditor general suggested should also be looked into.

    She said she also has an interest in reviewing other issues, like how six-figure bonus payments to Vestcor executives are earned and calculated and how its investment strategy is performing.

    In 2019, Vestcor paid its top three executives a combined $2.63 million, most of that in bonus and incentive pay.

    In a statement posted on its website Vestcor disputed the Auditor General's contention she has the authority to review the body's operations. 

    "Our analysis and advice have indicated that the Auditor General should be much more limited with respect to access to Vestcor related information than what had been requested, " read the statement. 

    "We therefore have had to respectfully decline these requests to ensure we can continue to fulfill our contractual and other commitments to our clients."

    In addition to wanting the province to order Vestcor to accept the authority of her office, Adair-MacPherson encouraged MLAs to call the body before the public accounts committee to ask their own questions about its operations.

    "We're now five years later and some of the things [MLAs] were told have not panned out the way that they were led to believe," Adair-MacPherson told reporters.

    "Decision makers have to agree that they want this entity subject to audit."

    In her report, Adair-MacPherson reproduced letters back and forth between her office and Vestcor trying to arrange a review of materials the body claimed it is not required to disclose.

    She said the effort dragged on for weeks and stalled the audit of the province's books until she could trust the valuation of pension assets the province was reporting in its own financial statements.

    She said New Brunswick's comptroller had to hire an outside auditor for $30,000 to deal with the matter.

    "It was in my view ridiculous the hurdles we had to go through to get to the point to finalize the statements," she said.

    Vestcor recently upgraded its accommodations by moving its operations into two floors of a new office tower on Carleton Street, Fredericton's so called "sexiest building."

    People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin made a motion to summon the body to answer questions. The committee is scheduled to vote on the matter Wednesday.

    It's not the first time Adair-MacPherson has used her appearance in front of MLAs to ask for help.

    'It's a simple fix,' says AG

    In 2018, she told MLAs her office was underfunded and required a $1-million budget increase to properly do its job. It was a plea political parties immediately added to their election platforms that year and which the Higgs government delivered in its first post-election budget.

    On Tuesday, she said she hoped taking her dispute with Vestcor to MLAs would generate support and another swift response.

    "It's a simple fix. It's an easy clarification of the Auditor General Act," she said.

    "It's my attempt to resolve the issue once and for all."

    Reply to @David Amos: Why would they be upset ? They've annually gotten their COL increase . And no more underfunded and government dipping into their funds ! It appears under MacPherson someone wants to get their hands of some of those monies again ! Who's behind it The Liberals were noted for dipping into the Pension Funds . Sounds like someone wants a piece of the pie !

    Reply to @David Amos: Pensioners have gotten exactly what they were expecting , including their COL since it's inception , so why would they be upset ? They've built the Pension Fund up to 18 billion dollars according to the story . In the past at least 2.7 billion of that would have been underfunded by the government ! And not only underfunded , but not making anything off that 2.7 that WASN'T invested !

    Charges stayed in one of Ontario's largest Mob busts after alleged illegal conduct by investigators

    Defence says police had no right to listen to calls with lawyers as part of Project Sindacato

     

    Dexter McMillan, Joseph Loiero, John Lancaster, Ivan Angelovski· CBC News· Posted: Feb 24, 2021 4:00 AM ET

     


    Police seized Ferraris, Rolexes, cash and houses, among other property, but must now return most of it after their case fell apart. 1:38

    One of the largest police investigations into organized crime in Ontario's history has fallen apart after police allegedly illegally intercepted phone calls as part of a multimillion-dollar probe into suspected Mob activity in the Greater Toronto Area, CBC News has learned.

    The operation, dubbed Project Sindacato, resulted in charges against nine people in Canada who police alleged were part of a criminal organization with ties to the Mob in Italy. 

    On Jan. 27, prosecutors stayed the charges against six of the accused, including alleged boss Angelo Figliomeni, after defence lawyers raised concerns that investigators committed "significant breaches of solicitor/client privilege." Three of the accused previously had their charges stayed in 2020.

    "The defence has taken the position that the entirety of the police investigation was tainted by what we would allege to be unlawful and illegal conduct by both York Regional Police officers and by members of the Canada Revenue Agency," Michael Lacy, Figliomeni's lawyer, said at last month's hearing following a defence application to have the charges stayed.

    In an interview this week, Lacy told CBC News that York Regional Police and Canada Revenue Agency investigators "are the ones who actually breached the law for the purpose of their investigation."

    Angelo Figliomeni was among nine people arrested by police in the Greater Toronto Area in July 2019 as part of a group accused of running illegal gambling operations, fraud, drug trafficking and laundering money. Police alleged they were part of a criminal organization with ties to the Mob in Italy. (York Regional Police)

    Project Sindacato was an 18-month, $8 million joint investigation that began in 2018 involving eight different police services, including York Regional Police, the Canada Revenue Agency and police investigators in Italy.

    The group was accused of running illegal gambling operations, fraud, drug trafficking and laundering money through casinos, York Regional Police said in a news release issued in July 2019. Italian State Police also arrested 12 people in connection with the investigation whom they described at a press conference on July 18, 2019 as "closely associated to the Canadian branch of the operation."

    Police said at the news conference that the alleged Figliomeni organization was closely connected to the 'Ndrangheta, the most powerful organized crime group in Italy and one of the richest in the world. 

    Based in the southern Italian region of Calabria, the 'Ndrangheta are believed to make more than $80 billion a year — largely from drug trafficking, according to a 2014 news report

    Authorities involved in the case alleged that Angelo Figliomeni is the head of the 'Ndrangheta in Toronto, but Lacy said the York Regional Police investigation uncovered no such evidence.

      

    Police issued this graphic of the people charged in 2019 as part of Project Sindacato. All have had their charges stayed. Giacomo Cassano, far right, was charged but never found and arrested. (York Regional Police)

    'The public is left with nothing'

    Police announced the arrests, along with the seizure of $35 million worth of goods, at a news conference on July 18, 2019. The property seized included five Ferraris, 19 other luxury cars, 27 homes, illegally modified gambling machines, luxury liquors valued at more than $120,000 and 38 Rolex watches with an estimated value of more than $750,000, according to York Regional Police's 2019 annual report.

    Six of those who were charged were residents of Vaughan, Ont., north of Toronto, while the other three individuals resided in Toronto, Oakville, Ont., and Bolton, Ont., according to York Regional Police.


    Two of five Ferraris seized by police as part of Project Sindacato now have to be returned. (York Regional Police) 

    Adrienne Lei, a Toronto lawyer who didn't work on the case but has experience with police misconduct cases, said all officers are trained to know that privileged conversations between a lawyer and their client may not be used in court. "They must have learned this in the first minute, the first hour, day one of police training," she said. "They knew what they were doing was wrong."

    After two years of work, millions of dollars in costs and extensive resources expended, Canadian authorities have almost nothing to show for it. All property seized by police must now be returned — with the exception of illegal possessions, such as the gambling machines, Lacy said.

    Federal Crown prosecutor Xenia Proestos announced the charges were stayed after privately reviewing the results of an independent investigation by the Toronto Police Service's professional standards unit into the use of the privileged conversations. The investigation was requested by the Crown after Lacy's allegations.

    Michael Lacy, Figliomeni's lawyer, says he believes the prospect of the police bringing forward the charges again with new evidence is 'zero.' (Richard Agecoutay/CBC)

    CBC News requested an interview with York Regional Police to address concerns that investigators violated solicitor-client privilege, leading to the stay of charges. 

    They instead emailed a statement that said, in part, they are "extremely disappointed in the Crown Attorney's decision to not proceed to trial on the criminal charges," noting that they "worked collaboratively and diligently with the Crown from the onset" and "remain very proud of this investigation." 

    In response to CBC's interview request, representatives from the Canada Revenue Agency wrote that they do not comment on court cases.

    "The public is left with nothing," Lei said. "This is a prosecution that could have gone ahead."

    An internal systems review is needed to determine exactly what led to the stay of charges, she said. "This doesn't sound like it was one rotten apple ... it sounds like the tree is rotten."

    The Crown has one year to bring forward the charges again with newly collected evidence before they must be withdrawn completely.

    "I think the prospect of that in this case is zero," Lacy said. "If they did and we went to court and we litigated the allegations that we made, it would not turn out well for the York Regional Police," he said.

    "What we alleged in our filing material was that they are the ones who actually breached the law for the purpose of their investigation. So I think that there's an element of irony in that."

    N.B. couple who gave lift to veteran shivering on highway say it changed their life

    Ernie Jesso's feet were frozen after walking for 2 days and sleeping in the woods

    A New Brunswick couple say they're looking at life a lot differently since they stopped to help a man on the side of the Trans-Canada Highway earlier this month.

    Mike and Caroline Trueman were driving back to their home in Sussex from Fredericton on Feb. 6 when they saw what they thought was a pile of garbage alongside the highway in Jemseg, about 50 kilometres east of the capital.

    "I was thinking to myself, why would somebody throw their garbage out there, that's pathetic," said Mike Trueman. "As I got closer to it and actually went by, I noticed a guitar case laying on the ground, and then it dawned on me: that's not garbage, that's a person." 

    The Truemans circled back and found 50-year-old Ernie Jesso wrapped in a blanket and leaning against a guardrail.

    Jesso had been walking from Oromocto back to his makeshift home in the woods off Route 10 near Long Creek, a journey of nearly 85 km.

    WATCH | Giving a lift to a homeless veteran changed one N.B. couple's life:


    A Sussex couple were driving home when they saw what they thought was garbage on the side of the road. It turned out to be 50-year-old veteran, Ernie Jesso. 2:58

    He told the Truemans he'd started walking the day before and slept in the woods near the highway overnight. But during his travels, his feet had gotten wet and started to freeze near the halfway point of his walk home. 

    Jesso said he'd normally hitchhike, but that's come to an end with COVID-19. 

    To the Truemans, it was obvious Jesso needed help.

    'He was ecstatic' 

    They got him in the truck to warm him up. Caroline gave him what food they had with them — a muffin — and then they offered to drive him the rest of the 45 km to his home. 

    "When this man got out of the truck, he was happy as happy could be," Mike said. "He was ecstatic to be home."

    Jesso has been living in a travel trailer for the last year, and has added to it with felled trees, scrap wood and whatever he's been able to find.

    Mike and Caroline Trueman say stopping to check on veteran Ernie Jesso has changed their lives. (Submitted by Mike Trueman)

    He uses an old wood furnace for heat and, on occasion, a small generator. Inside his makeshift home, the 34-year veteran of the Canadian military keeps his accolades from his tours in Bosnia and Afghanistan, along with a few family photos. He said he suffers from PTSD but isn't seeking treatment. 

    Skipper, a small, affectionate black cat, is Jesso's only companion in the woods. 

    "I don't know how to describe what he lives in," Mike said. "I just don't have the words for it."

    'He never asked us for a nickel' 

    The Truemans tried to offer Jesso more help but said he wouldn't take it. 

    "He never asked us for a nickel," Mike said. "But I think as a vet we owe it to him that he lives a better life." 

    Mike said he has returned several times to check in on his new friend, bringing him food and a few necessities.

    After Mike posted what happened on social media, people from across Canada, including other veterans, have been asking how they can help. Some have ventured out to bring Jesso stews, vegetables and moosemeat steaks. 

    "I was taught by my great father and mother never look a gift horse in the mouth — never," said Jesso. 

    He's clear that he's not looking for charity, but he's thankful for the kindness. He said he also goes out of his way to share anything that's donated.

    "I always tell [people], if I can't use it, if I have no need for it, I will find somebody else that [does]," said Jesso. 


    Jesso says several people have visited him at his shelter since Mike Trueman shared his story online. (Shane Fowler/CBC) 

    The Truemans said the simple act of helping someone in need has changed how they look at their own lives. 

    "What I really stopped doing was complaining about, you know, wanting a bigger house, better truck, more money," Mike said.

    "This guy had nothing, and he was happy. And I said to my wife, 'I got more out of [this encounter] than he did.'"

    Buddy, can you spare a deer?

    Avid hunters in N.B. fight for the right to donate deer meat

    Sussex, N.B.’s Mike and Caroline Trueman love to shoot deer. They usually bag a pair every season. But a few years ago, with their five kids grown and out of the home, the avid hunters had a problem: what were they supposed to do with all that meat?

    Their answer: give it to the needy. In 2008, the Truemans called local food banks and soup kitchens to ask, “Can you take our deer?” The meat, they figured, would be a good change from the mac and cheese that fills most food hampers. But they couldn’t find any takers. “Everybody kept saying, nope, you can’t do that in Canada. It’s not available. It’s not legal,” Caroline Trueman says.

    But the Truemans didn’t give up. They went to Fredericton, hired a lawyer, and in 2009 had their hunted-meat-for-the-hungry scheme declared legal. That year, the Truemans launched Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry Canada, an offshoot of an American organization. In the 2010 season alone, Caroline says, the group fed nutritious and, depending on your tastes, delicious venison to 1,600 needy New Brunswickers. Now the Truemans are hoping to expand. Their website already lists volunteer coordinators in B.C., Ontario and Quebec. They’re hoping more come on board soon.

    The program works like this: the organization provides a list of participating, provincially licensed butchers. All the hunters have to do is hunt, then drop the meat off. (“Do what you love to do,” Caroline says.) The organization pays for cleaning and butchering costs with donations.

    Since local media first reported on the program, Caroline has been swamped with offers and advice on how to expand the operation. But she says it’s all a bit beyond her. “I don’t know how to do a marketing plan,” she says. “All I know how to do is feed the hungry and hunt.”

     
     

    The Homesteaders Association Inc. is a non-profit group which was created for the purpose of social, charitable and educational activities for our youth. Our goal at this time is to acquire and preserve the building and property formally known as the DNR Staff Camp - Schoales Dam Ranger's Camp located at 1049 Creek Road, Shepody, Kings County N.B. This camp was managed by the Department of Natural Resources and Energy and used as a base camp for their various operations. There is some historical significance to these building and it is well known in the area. In recent years the building has fallen into disrepair and is no longer used by the DNRE. At present the buildings (main lodge and one out building) are in desperate need of repair. DTI, at one point had determined that this valuable asset was to be torn down but our group felt that the buildings were salvageable and we petitioned the Province to let us take it over.

    The goal of our organization would be to bring this property, including the two buildings back from its current state of disrepair and make it a functioning, useful asset that can be used by other various non-profit organizations (such as the Boy Scouts, church groups, RCMP, local fire departments and Ambulance NB Employees) for operational, recreational and training purposes. We also believe that it is an excellent venue to hold community meetings or gatherings. Historically the property was loaned out to these organizations, free of charge, so the youth can experience a wilderness setting but still have some comforts. The location is perfect for staging hikes or taking the youth fishing in nearby lakes. I know from personal experience that the Boy Scouts of Canada have made use of this facility in years past. The Army Cadet program has also been a prominent user. Local church groups have brought youth and troubled teens out and stayed in the camp.

    We have been in conversation with local RCMP and the Sussex Fire Department and they would find it useful, not only for training opportunities but the facility could be used as a staging area for operations such as search and rescue, firefighting and fund raising opportunities for their ventures.

    Our main thrust will be towards the youth in the area and their associated non-profit organizations. We believe everyone should be able to experience the outdoors in a safe and friendly environment.

    History of SVAT

    The Sussex Valley All-Terrain Club was started in the early 1990’s.
    There were approximately twelve ATV enthusiasts that decided to get together to share their knowledge and passion for the sport.
    In the beginning meetings were held in Brian Bronnum’s garage, to decide where and when we would be going. We got together as often as work would allow us, to explore the trails in the area and enjoy the camaraderie.
    In the late 1990’s it was decided to incorporate to protect our executive and directors and at that time we joined the NB ATV Federation to help promote the sport.
    One of the club’s largest accomplishments was the Federation jamboree which we hosted in the early 2000’s for two years at Poley Mtn. The turn-out was beyond what anyone had expected with 1000+ bikes each day. Another major accomplishment was in 2014 preventing the Big Salmon River Bridge #2 from being demolished and repairing it so it is safe for ATV use.
    One thing has remained constant over the years and that is the great group of volunteers that the Sussex club has to draw from when it comes to a big event or project. We have remained a relatively small club at just under 200 members at present (2012). Update: In 2016 we became one of the largest clubs in NB, with over 1150 members.
    Currently we have a trail system in place around Adair’s Wilderness Lodge in the Shepody Area, as well as major feeder trails starting at the Timberland Motel in Penobsquis and at the Superstore in the western end of Sussex connecting to the Shepody trails.
    Our focus is to maintain and expand our trail system, with the completion of our section of the provincial trail and the addition of some very exciting new trails in the very near future and above all promote safe and responsible use of ATVs.
    In 2016 the provincial trail connecting to the trails of the Saint John Club was completed.
    In 2017 a picnic site was added to the Bluff Lookout trail.
    In 2018 a new trail 3412 was constructed to the top of Poley Mountain.
    In 2019 two new trails, 3414 and 3415 were added to the system along with a 44 foot observation tower atop Poley Mountain. Also a picnic site was added to trail 3409 at Vniegar Hill.
    2019 saw trail 3409 extended through Lower Cove Road, Route 121 and Main St to access the goods and services available on Lower Main St and Walmart. At this time the Gateway Mall is accessed by parking at Walmart and walking.

    Respect Landowners

    There have been several reports lately of ATVs driving on property without permission. In some cases on farmer’s fields. In most cases snowmobile trails through agricultural land are just that, snowmobile trails. ATVs are not permitted to use them. Please respect landowners and drive only on approved trails or trails that permission has been granted. Failure to do this may lead to the loss of use of trails or impact the establishment of new trails in the future.

    MARTIN HEAD ADVISORY

    It has been brought to our attention that the authorities are now enforcing no driving on the beach at Martin Head. You are allowed to drive down the road and park on the grass but that is all, otherwise you may be subject to a fine. We are awaiting clarification on some items but to be safe stay away from the beach.

    ALL TRAILS OPEN UPDATED 23/05/16

    All trails are open and in good condition. In keeping with our on going maintenance program there is grading and other repairs being done on various trails, so please take caution on the trails especially during the week.

    2016 Broadleaf Overnight Run

    The Broadleaf will be on July 23-24. The cost is $20.00 per person. This is for accommodations only, nothing else is included. You must pay the $20.00 upfront to reserve your spot(non refundable). There are 40 spots available, first come first served. The rooms are in 2 bunkhouses with 20 beds in each.

    ATVs on New Snowmobile Trail

    It has been brought to our attention that atvs are starting to follow the new snowmobile trail from Penobsquis to McGregor Brook. This trail is through private property that we do not have permission to be on. PLEASE STAY OFF THIS TRAIL as your actions could affect future atv trail development in these areas.

    Trail Coordinator Required

    The club suffered a setback before the last meeting. Mark Buchanan,our Trail Coordinator, had to resign due to changes in his employment.
    So therefore SVAT is in need of a trail coordinator.The job of trail coordinator is to work with the executive to prioritize trail repairs and maintenance,organize volunteer trail work days, work with contractors to carry out activities that can not be handled by volunteers and make sure the trail system is as safe as possible for club members. Please contact Jeff Branscombe or Graham Milner if you think you would like to try out this position.

    Caution Around Woods Operations

    During a conversation with one of our landowners, it was asked to make members aware that when they encounter wood cutting operations on the trails to use extreme caution. He said that on more than one occasion ATVs have passed his machines while working. This is very dangerous as pieces of wood could fall and injure or kill someone. In most incidents the woods machines are on the trails only for a short time. Riders should stop and wait for the machines to finish and move out of the way before proceeding. No one is in that big of a hurry to risk their life to save 5 or 10 minutes.

    A little TLC for an 'iconic' wilderness camp

    Fundraiser aims to open up Schoales Dam Ranger Camp to more nature-lovers

     
    Julia Wright· CBC News· Posted: Mar 05, 2017 12:00 PM AT  


    A musical fundraiser for a new roof for the Schoales Dam Ranger Camp will be held March 11 at 6:30 p.m. at the Senior’s Centre in Sussex. (Submitted by Graham Milner)

    The Schoales Dam Ranger Camp is a quiet forest retreat tucked away in the Shepody area about a kilometre past Adair's Wilderness Lodge.

    Relatively few people know it exists but, a Sussex group called the Homesteaders Association Incorporated is trying to fix up the camp so that more nature lovers can use it.

    The building, which dates back to the 1800s, is located near lakes and trails, and has "a bit of historical significance," said Graham Milner, a founder of the Homesteaders Association Incorporated. It's been used over the years by the Department of Natural Resources for trapping courses and patrols for moose hunters, as well as the Boy Scouts, cadets, RCMP and fire departments.

    "Even my church, the Faith Bible Baptist Fellowship, has had our youth groups go out there and use it for hikes and camping," Milner said. "Everyone who lives out there or goes out there hunting or fishing knows where this building is. It's been an icon out there for years."

    Once endangered, now needs a little TLC

    A few years ago, however, the Homesteaders Association Incorporated received word the camp was in danger.

    "We got word that they were going to tear it down," Milner said, "but we thought that would be a shame."

    The group successfully petitioned the government to take possession.

    "They sold us the building, and they gave us a 20-year lease on the land," Milner said.

    Homesteaders Association Incorporated is trying to fix up the camp and loan it out to other not-for-profit groups and nature lovers.

    The building is still "a little rough inside," Milner said. Despite some roof leaks that have caused a bit of rot on the inside, a contractor hired to assess the building said the bones and roof structure are good.

    "There's even a chimney in there in perfect shape, not a crack in it," he said. The building is "salvageable, it's just going to take a little bit of time and money to do it."

    Music, fun times for good cause

    Milner said the location — close to trails, lakes, and wilderness — makes the Schoales Dam Ranger Camp an ideal staging area for people who love the outdoors.

    "For us, the building is a centre of activity," he said. "You're right at the cusp of outdoor adventures in that area — and hopefully the Fundy Trail will be extended to go right by there in the next couple of years as well."

    "We have the steel for the roof," Milner said, "and now we're just trying to raise a little bit more money so that we can get started on it in the spring."

    A musical fundraiser for refurbishing The Schoales Dam Ranger Camp will be held March 11 starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Senior's Centre in Sussex. There will be a jam session and sing along featuring Kenny Campbell and Doris Fraser, as well as a 50/50 draw and silent auction.

    Health officials say they're working to change Ambulance New Brunswick contract

    Officials face tough questions on rural versus urban ambulance wait times


    Jacques Poitras· CBC News· Posted: Feb 24, 2021 5:46 PM AT

    Provincial officials at the Department of Health say they're "working toward" fixing the Ambulance New Brunswick contract that now includes a bonus payment system favouring urban over rural areas.

    But they offered no details during an appearance before a committee of MLAs on what that work involves or how soon changes could be made.

    "We recognize that the response times across the province are not equal. We are the first ones to recognize that," said Gérald Richard, the deputy minister at the department.

    "We have been directed as the Department of Health officials to make sure that we find solutions to those inequalities in the system and we are working toward that at this moment."

    He and René Boudreau, an assistant deputy minister who chairs the provincial corporation overseeing the service, faced tough questions from several MLAs on the Public Accounts committee.

    "Why is the department comfortable with dividing the province basically into these categories where the rural areas are disadvantaged and have unacceptable wait times?" asked Green MLA Megan Mitton.

    "I have to say we are not comfortable with this at all," Richard responded, "and government is not as well and has directed us to look at improving the contract."

    Progressive Conservative MLA Jake Stewart, pushed Richard repeatedly on the structure of the contract, noting his hometown of Blackville is among the communities with response times below the provincial target.

    "Twenty-six, 27, 28 minutes is a long time for a tragic car crash or a drowning," Stewart said.

    Medavie Health Services New Brunswick Inc., a not-for-profit private company, runs the ambulance service under a contract with EM/ANB Inc., which is made up of a board of provincial government officials.

    Boudreau said Wednesday there's "a willingness on both ends" to try to change the agreement, which expires in 2027.

    Medavie gets extra payments if it hits its response-time goals 90 per cent of the time. The goals are nine minutes in urban areas and 22 minutes in rural areas. The payments were $2.7 million in 2018-19. 

    But because rural areas are folded into four large zones where urban calls make up the majority of ambulance calls, the Medavie service can hit the 90 percent goal in each zone and receive bonus payments--despite falling short of 90 percent in rural communities.

    Ambulance service focused on urban areas, AG says

    Last year Auditor-General Kim Adair-MacPherson found that 19 of 67 remote, rural communities saw response times below the 90 per cent threshold.

    The lowest was Belledune, with 69 per cent. Another example was Port Elgin with 79 per cent. Blackville was at 88 per cent.

    Ambulance New Brunswick "is given the opportunity to focus resources on urban areas while having decreased performance in outlying communities and without impacting its performance-based payments," Adair-MacPherson said in her report last fall. 

    Boudreau said communities where ANB frequently misses the 22-minute goal "definitely need attention" and the goal is "equity across the province." 

    Once the government gives the EM/ANB board clear direction, "there is absolutely a willingness on both ends to look at what those implications would mean for the contract and make changes where appropriate and where the parties can find agreement." 

    "It's refreshing that the current contract will be revamped to provide acceptable response times and coverage to rural areas," Stewart said after the meeting wrapped up.

    New Brunswick's minimum wage increase 'so small,' social justice group says

    5-cent increase is smaller than recent increases, and New Brunswick is still behind most other provinces

     

    CBC News· Posted: Feb 25, 2021 1:50 PM AT

    A social justice group isn't impressed by New Brunsick's coming bump in the minimum wage.

    The minimum wage is set to increase by five cents on April 1, bringing the wage to $11.75 an hour from $11.70.

    The increase is relatively small compared with recent increases, and New Brunswick is still behind almost all other provines and territories.

    In 2020, the minimum wage rose by $0.20, in 2019 and 2018 it rose by $0.25 and in 2017 it rose by $0.35.

    The yearly increase, announced this week, is indexed to the consumer price index in New Brunswick, which saw a which saw a 0.22 per cent increase last year.

    Abram Lutes, the provincial co-ordinator for the New Brunswick Common Front for Social Justice, said the additional five cents is far less that his group would like to see.

    "The amount is so small that it begs the question why announce it in the first place," said Lutes.

    Poverty line

    Lutes said Statistics Canada says a yearly wage of $21,000 is necessary for an individual to stay above the poverty line.

    The old minimum wage only let people earn about $20,400 a year — with a full-time job —  and the extra nickel an hour only adds $80 a year.

    "You're essentially still about $450 short of the poverty line," said Lutes. 

    "Regardless of this increase, a lot of minimum wage workers are going to be, you know, relying on the help of others, probably going into debt to afford essentials. … It doesn't make a substantial impact in people's lives."

    Lutes said he can't speculate on why the province wouldn't want a larger increase for minimum wage workers.

    "In general, this government has not been particularly friendly to workers or working people … and there's a whole slew of policies that have shown them to be hostile to working class issues."

    Living wage

    Lutes said the group once advocated for a $15 minimum wage, but even that is now outpaced by the cost of living in some places in New Brunswick.

    "We're effectively having to play catchup with the cost of living, and that hurts and damages a lot of people's livelihoods and prospects," said Lutes.

    "We should be committing to making sure that our minimum wage is a wage you can live on with some dignity as soon as possible."

    Lutes said he understands that some businesses are struggling and may find a higher minimum wage difficult.

    He suggests the government significantly raise the minimum wage but also support small businesses and non-profit organizations in the short term.

    "We know that over time a higher minimum wage leads to higher consumption by ... lower-income people, which often translates into being good for business," said Lutes.

    You can't deny that poor old folks and minimum wager earners vote or the fact that we outnumber Higgy's wealthy buddies and his many greedy minions EH?

    Methinks its clear that you and you hero Higgy don't get it yet. However a lot of folks ain't too pleased with Higgy since he won his self serving snap election last summer after canceling the municipal elections. The Ides of March and a vote on his pending budget are 2 weeks or so before April Fools Day. If there is enough dissension within the Blue Coat's ranks lead by 5 disenchanted former cabinet ministers we could be having another snap election or an interesting coalition government. Perhaps with Lady Luck on our side we can be rid of Higgy and his cohorts who enjoy far too many butter tarts on the taxpayer dimes N'esy Pas?

    So if minimum wage was to jump to $15 as people are discussing in here, a nearly 22% wage hike, does that mean I get that as well as everyone else? Why work for more when the gap shrinks? Why bother

    New Brunswick minimum wage to go up by a nickel on April 1

    Last minimum wage increase in province was four times as much

     
    CBC News· Posted: Feb 24, 2021 2:58 PM AT

    Some New Brunswick workers will see a slight bump in their paycheques come spring.

    The minimum wage is set to increase by five cents on April 1, bringing it up to $11.75 an hour from $11.70.

    The five-cent increase was arrived at because the minimum wage in New Brunswick is indexed to the province's consumer price index, which saw a 0.22 per cent increase last year.

    In a statement posted to the province's website, Labour Minister Trevor Holder said tying the minimum wage to the consumer price index protects "the purchasing power of employees" while also ensuring "predictability for businesses."

    "We are mindful of the financial realities faced by both employees and employers, particularly as we endure the COVID-19 pandemic."

    The increase is relatively small compared with recent increases.

    In 2020 the minimum wage rose by  20 cents in 2019, by 25 cents in 2018 and by 35 cents in 2017.

    The province estimates that 20,000 workers in New Brunswick make minimum wage. 

    The province has the second-lowest minimum wage in the country. Saskatchewan has the lowest at $11.45, and Nunavut has the highest at $16.

    The other three Atlantic provinces are also raising their minimum wages later this year, but they're already higher than New Brunswick's will be after the April increase. 

    In Nova Scotia, the minimum wage is now $12.55, in P.E.I. it's $12.85, and in Newfoundland and Labrador it's $12.15.

    Child and youth advocate cautiously optimistic about mental health plan

    Plan would see provincial treatment centre for youth open by 2024

    New Brunswick's child and youth advocate says he's cautiously optimistic after the province announced it's five-year plan to tackle mental health and addictions in the province.

    Earlier this week, the province announced a provincial treatment centre for youth would be open by 2024. 

    Such a centre has been a priority for successive governments, both Liberal and Progressive Conservative, and a centre was planned for Campbellton.

    Concerns about the location and staffing led the Blaine Higgs government to move the centre to Moncton.

    Child and youth advocate Norm Bosse said he was happy to see the plan released but hopes the treatment centre can open sooner.

    "The Addiction and Mental Health Action Plan released by Minister Shepherd this week is a welcome sight, that's for sure," said Bosse. 

    "I know she said 2024, but let's hope that it's built before then."

    Going beyond centre of excellence

    The new centre in Moncton has been trumpeted as a centre of excellence for youth mental health and addictions services.

    But Bosse said treating youth mental health and addiction issues can't stop at the centre of excellence. A network of excellence is needed, he said

    This would allow young people to be treated for more moderate issues in their communities, with more serious cases being reserved for the Moncton centre.

    He cited Saint John's Access Open Minds as an example and said treating youth in their own communities is key to getting them better, faster.


    The province has finally announced a timeline for the completion of a youth treatment centre in Moncton. Norm Bosse is New Brunswick's child and youth advocate. 11:59

    "Youth can go there, they can talk to a counsellor, if they need assistance, they can certainly get it," said Bosse. 

    "It's what we call treating the situation at the right place at the right time and not waiting for months and months to get in to see either psychologists or psychiatrists. Those are what make a difference sometimes so that the situations of mental health don't escalate to the point where they need tertiary care"

    Bosse said the data is too fresh to draw any permanent conclusions, but anecdotally, he said, youth have had a hard time during the pandemic.

    "What we're hearing and receiving from calls for assistance in our office is that children are suffering, there's depression and there's also risk of suicide," said Bosse. 

    "I've not heard of one case of youth dying by suicide during this pandemic, but the the elements are all there to create those situations."

    3 new watchdogs appointed

    Premier names child and youth advocate, official languages commissioner and ombudsman

    The Alward government has announced the appointment of three new people to watchdog positions in the province, based on a new selection process.

    The new child and youth advocate is Saint John lawyer Norm Bossé, who represented victims in the Kingsclear reformatory sex abuse case.

    Katherine d'Entremont, a career civil servant, will be the new commissioner of official languages.

    And the new ombudsman is Charles Murray, a civil servant and former political assistant to one-time Tory MP Elsie Wayne and to former PC cabinet minister Brad Green.

    "I am confident that their experience and education will help them to carry out their respective duties effectively," said Premier David Alward.

    He said Murray's appointment is not political.

    "The individuals went through a very significant assessment and interviewing process."

    Selection process overhauled

    In March, the government overhauled the selection process for the arm's-length watchdog positions that offer a six-figure, deputy minister-level salary, for a seven-year term.

    Previously, the government picked people for the positions that report to the legislative assembly, in consultation with the opposition. The legislature would then approve the choice.

    But now, a committee of bureaucrats, lawyers and academics review applications from people who are interested in the positions and presents qualified individuals to the premier.

    He then consults with the leader of the opposition and recommendations are made through the legislative assembly.

    The committee in this case included a provincial court judge, a member of the university community, the clerk of the legislature and the clerk of the executive council.

    "We are pleased as a government that we created a new process to be more fair and transparent," said Alward.

    Liberal Opposition Leader Brian Gallant was consulted on the three choices and signed off on all of them, including Murray.

    "Charles Murray has a very impressive resume," said Gallant. "There was a good group of people that looked through a lot of the candidacies and he came through as the consensus choice."

    Professor's blog posts spark backlash, prompt internal review at Mount Allison University

    University condemns 'inappropriate' comments, students' union says it has received multiple complaints


    Marie Sutherland· CBC News· Posted: Feb 23, 2021 4:24 PM AT

     


    Mount Allison University said in a statement that it has received complaints about a faculty member's blog and that 'serious concerns have been expressed' about posts related to systemic racism, sexual violence, gender and colonization. (Submitted by Mount Allison )

    Mount Allison University has launched an internal review after receiving complaints about an associate psychology professor's personal blog.

    In a statement, the university said it has received complaints about a faculty member's blog and that "serious concerns have been expressed" about posts related to systemic racism, sexual violence, gender, and colonization.

    "We neither support nor agree with the inappropriate comments that have been posted to this blog," the university said in its statement, which was posted Monday night on Facebook and emailed to faculty, staff and students.

    "We recognize that comments such as these are hurtful to many people in our community and more widely."

    The university said it has initiated its "internal review processes," and will be looking into the situation to determine next steps. 

    It noted concerns have been raised by the Mount Allison Students' Union, the Black Students adviser and diversity educator, the Indigenous Affairs co-ordinator and the Indigenous Student Support Group, and said it would ensure that these issues "are addressed without delay."

    The statement did not identify the professor or the blog.

    Multiple complaints about blog, students' union says

    However, Mount Allison Students' Union president Jonathan Ferguson told CBC News that the blog in question was that of Prof. Rima Azar, a health psychology professor at the university.

    "Many students reached out to us yesterday morning about the blog," and complaints have continued to come in since then, he said.

    "They were concerned about what this professor was saying throughout her blog … denying systemic racism in New Brunswick or in Canada, talking about BIPOC students in unkind ways, labelling Black Lives Matter a radical group —  stuff that doesn't run in line with the values of our institution at all."

    Several Twitter posts have also cited concerns about Azar's blog, bambisafkar.ca, Ferguson said.

    Ferguson said the students' union flagged the concerns to administration and will now stand back and "give them time to go through the process" of an internal review.

    Reached by email on Tuesday morning, Azar said she was ill and was awaiting medical test results.

    She declined to comment on the personal blog or on any measures the university is taking in response to complaints about it.

    According to the Mount Allison website, Azar is also an adjunct professor at Dalhousie Medicine New Brunswick and at the Université de Moncton school of psychology. 

    Asked what next steps and possible repercussions of the internal review would be, Mount Allison communications officer Aloma Jardine referred CBC News to the statement issued Monday evening.

    "We will not be making further comment at this time," Jardine said.

    Ferguson noted the students' union has no specific hoped-for outcome, other than to ensure its students feel represented and heard.

    "A lot of people will rightfully bring up where freedom of speech falls into this, but I just want to say on behalf of the students of Mount Allison that freedom of speech doesn't mean amnesty from consequences," he said.

    "She is free to say what she feels and students are free to express how upset they are with those comments."

    And yet again people can't express their own views because of cancel culture. I wouldn't exactly say the prof is right but I wouldn't also say she's wrong either. What I will say is those are her views and that should be ok. The university tipped its hand and just proved what education is all about .....indoctrination. Their views and their views only are accepted and preached no matter who you are dumping thousands into an institution that gives you the final seal to say your now educated! Haha. It's unbelievable how it works the other way and is totally acceptable, like myself having high schools students attending a particular school and having this type of indoctrination shoved down throats. No matter where your children are being educated they need to learn to think freely for themselves and not have teachers or profs thinking for them. It could be unacceptable in some eyes this lady's behavior but it's also unacceptable for anyone to be silenced for voicing their opinions. It should work both ways.

    Reply to @Tim Simmons: that time never existed. The problem is now adays everyone posts their opinions online and makes them widely known. In the past only your circle of friends/family/colleagues, who likely agreed with you, knew your opinion. Now everyone tweets the most idiotic thoughts they have and expect others not to express their opinions.
     
     
    Kay McLeod 
    Reply to @Mandel Rooney: I don't think that's true. When I was in university actual critical thinking WAS encouraged. I was taken as a child to 'Speakers Corner' in London where people got on soapboxes and spouted whatever they believed in. The society I was raised in represented to me that the considering of every idea was the healthiest way for a society to move forward. We've abandoned as a society the model that we should defend everyone's right to have their own ideas, no matter how wacky, as the foundation of a healthy democracy and that's disastrous. Social media just makes that worse. It's deeply dangerous for a democracy to drop the standard of "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

    I'm really not convinced that it's a university's business to be holding an 'internal review' over faculty members' external lifestyle choices - unpopularity is not a crime. I read the prof's "offensive" blog posts. Hardly a clarion call to violence and oppression... just many social-themed questions. Although some, like 'What if a First Nations person dreams only of working in the Alberta tar sands?' only left me scratching my noggin.
    The subsequent doxxing and cancel-culture orthodoxy is a whole other, sinister issue. Don't know what she teaches - but I'll bet she's seen the writing on the wall. Hope she doesn't have to fear for her safety - that would be a brutal irony.

    Reply to @Jake Devries: That’s about the same time I retired from academics. The actual shift was gradual: it moved faculty from academic freedom to clerical proletariat labour. We’re definitely moving toward some kind of totalitarianism - the authorities seem to love the lockdowns and the destruction of mobility rights as well. There’s a steady erosion of individual freedom.

    Probe of professor's blog a form of cancel culture, free-speech group says

    Group calls internal review an 'egregious violation' of academic freedom, urges Mount Allison to reconsider

    Mount Allison University's decision to launch an internal review following complaints about the personal blog of one of its professors is an "egregious" violation of academic freedom, a group dedicated to the protection of free speech and scholarship says.

    Earlier this week, Mount Allison announced it was conducting an internal review after receiving complaints about an associate psychology professor's blog.

    In a statement, the university said "serious concerns have been expressed" about posts related to systemic racism, sexual violence, gender, and colonization.

    "We neither support nor agree with the inappropriate comments that have been posted to this blog," the university said.

    On Wednesday, the Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship rallied to the professor's defence.

    The society, a group of Canadian professors headed by philosophy professor Mark Mercer, sent a letter urging Mount Allison to rethink its decision.

    "The professor alluded to in the tweet is Rima Azar, associate professor of health psychology, and the comments Dr. Azar posted on her blog "Bambi's Afkar" concern matters of public and academic importance, such as freedom of expression, university policies, the existence of systemic racism in Canada and teaching in a multi-cultural society," the group said in a letter to Mount Allison.

    "SAFS is concerned that Mount Allison's [statement] violates Dr. Azar's academic freedom and will function to suppress discussion and inquiry" at the university.

    In an interview, Mercer said Mount Allison has "no legitimate reason" to look into Azar's postings, and said he sees its decision to do so as a response to public pressure.

    "It's an expression of cancel culture and it perpetuates cancel culture," Mercer said. "As soon as the investigation is called, that's an act of cancelling."

    Azar declined to comment on the internal review or on the society's response.

    Mount Allison acknowledged Friday that it has received the letter, but did not respond to questions about whether it will continue with the review.

    "We have no further comments at this time," communications officer Aloma Jardine said in an email.

    Mercer said he has not heard back from Mount Allison yet, but that he is hopeful the university will change its position and use the controversy as a "teachable moment."

    "When we're confronted with positions that we think are false or dangerous, we should analyze them, discuss the arguments for and against," not shut them down, he said. 

    Mount Allison University should be using the controversy around the complaints as a teachable moment about the academic values of free speech and discussion, Mercer said. (Submitted by Mount Allison )

    No topics should be off-limits, Mercer says

    Earlier this week, Jonathan Ferguson, president of Mount Allison Students' Union, said it received multiple complaints about Azar's blog.

    The complaints were not about any one post specifically, he said, but rather about "what this professor was saying throughout her blog … denying systemic racism in New Brunswick or in Canada, talking about BIPOC students in unkind ways, labelling Black Lives Matter a radical group —  stuff that doesn't run in line with the values of our institution at all."

    Husoni Raymond, a St. Thomas University graduate who was mentioned in Azar's blog, tweeted: "So one Black person wins an award and that means there's no racism? Disappointing to see a professor who's still ignorant to what racism is and will be using her power within the institution to uphold racists ideologies. Racism IS in Canada. Racism IS in NB."

    Raymond was responding to a post by Azar in which she said, in part:

    "NB is NOT racist. Canada is NOT racist. We do not have 'systemic' racism or 'systemic' discrimination. We just have systemic naivety because we are a young country and because we want to save the world.

    "Oh, one quick question to Mr. Husoni Raymond: Upon your graduation from St. Thomas University, you have been named the 2020 recipient of the Tom McCann Memorial Trophy for your 'strong leadership and character' ...

    "If NB is as racist as you are claiming, would one of its prestigious universities be honouring you like that?"

    Mercer said no topics should be off-limits.

    "The point of freedom of expression on campus is to remove impediments from discussion ... so that people can say what's on their mind," he said.

    "So when a university says it doesn't support this view, then that's the institution saying there's a party line. And then when they say they're investigating, then they're saying there are some things that cannot be said."

    - Freedom of expression is just an illusion. It never existed and never will be. Sooner or later it will end up catching up to you. One would be better advised to exercise his right to remain silent.

    It would be nice if the same kind of respect for freedom of speech existed among journalists in the mass media. As a journalist, I have been raked over the coals by others in media for things which I posted on my social media and own website.

    I don't recall there being any hue and cry about respecting my freedom of speech at the time from any journalists, despite the fact that I had been a director of the Canadian Association of Journalists, won journalism awards and worked in the media for decades.

    It seems to me like the call to respect freedom of speech only applies in Canada to those with whom the activists agree.

    Unfortunately , free speech and thought is under attack in Canada , and the " cancel culture " is being used to silence people who do not agree with every thing that they are being fed . Canada is going down a dangerous road ; and things seem to be getting worse . Luckily Canadians can still use the ballot box to save the country , so let your voices be heard on election day !

    Reply to @Matt Steele: Freedom of speech, action and thought do not provide a free pass from their consequences. Bambi won’t see any consequences from her blog, but Mt. A. has every right (and obligation) to review for themselves to ensure it is not dangerous or inciting hatred (it’s not, it’s just immature and self-serving.)

    Reply to @Matt Steele: It's not just Canada; it's western culture in general. And voting is no help since 67% of us told JT to hit the road in the last election. As it stands, no politician will stand up to the social justice crowd to avoid being treated like Azar. It's why stuff like this happens.

    Congrats to Dr. Mercer for standing up against cancel culture. The actual concern here is that universities, driven by political expediency and cultural acceptance, are undermining their most fundamental mission: that is, the promotion and protection of debate on potentially controversial subjects. Surely even the most hardened administrative technocrats at Mt. Allison can appreciate the danger in their actions.

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Emery Hyslop-Margison (born 1957) is a Canadian professor of education, and an author of six books and numerous scholarly articles. He held a Canada Research Chair with a focus on democratic learning in 2005–2007.

    Hyslop-Margison received his PhD from Simon Fraser University in 2001. His dissertation argued for the liberalization of vocational and career education based on the concern that these programs indoctrinated students into a neo-liberal mindset (Hyslop-Margison, 2005). Much of his work challenges contemporary neo-liberal values that situate economic objectives as the sole purpose of education (Hyslop-Margison, 2007).

    Hyslop-Margison's most recent scholarship argues that neo-liberalism is no longer sustained through ideological manipulation, but increasingly through the use of brute force, or the repressive state apparatus (Althusser, 1971). This shift is manifested, in part, through the international trend toward the election of right wing political parties, including the election of Donald Trump as U.S. President.

    President, Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship
    Mark Mercer

    Mark Mercer received his doctorate in philosophy from the University of Toronto in 1991 and began teaching in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in September 1999. He was chair of the philosophy department from 2010 to 2019. He works mainly in philosophy of mind and ethics.

    Dr Mercer’s current interests in the philosophy of mind concern the nature of mental states and the question how beliefs and desires can be causes and effects.

    In ethics, one of his projects has to do with the problem why care to promote the good or to do the right thing; another has to do with the claim that while we value some things intrinsically, nothing is intrinsically valuable.

    Since arriving in Halifax, Dr Mercer has developed a passion for ancient Greek philosophy. He likes each year to teach at least one course on the pre-Socratics, Plato, or Hellenistic philosophy.

    Dr Mercer is a committed civil libertarian and a champion of liberal education and academic freedom.

    The Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship (SAFS) is a national group of academics and others who support academic freedom and the merit principle in higher education. Dr Mercer became a member of SAFS in 2007 and was elected president in 2015.

    A Perfect Storm of Misinformation

    How to improve your BS detector


    Welcome to the web version of Need to Know: Science & Insight, a new form of personal journalism that looks at what we Need-to-Know at this time of pandemic, existential crisis of climate change and unravelling of nature’s life supports. Learn more.


    Dear Friends: We’re in the middle of a storm of lies, distortions and misinformation. It’s going to get worse when it comes to vaccines, climate change, alternative energy, and other solutions to bring about a transition to a sustainable, zero-carbon future.

    I’ve been navigating through this mire for 25 years, including the recent Texas blackout. A subscriber prompted me to share with you some Need-to-Know tools I use to keep my BS detector robust and well tuned. Please share any of your tips in the comments.

    Recently a subscriber asked me about an “intriguing and somewhat disturbing” video from Prager University about renewable energy. 

    That set my BS detector tingling.

    Anything from PragerU is disturbing since it’s a right-wing YouTube propaganda channel pretending to provide online education. And of course it’s not an accredited university.

    Prager has pumped out over 650 short videos since 2011 — often featuring professional liars from Fox News such as Glenn Beck and Tucker Carlson.

    The Prager videos are slick, with a white male in a suit very confidently explaining something in a I-know-more-than-you tone. In this case how 100% renewable energy is impossible, as well as being an expensive, environmental disaster. 

    In the video Prager expert Mark Mills conveniently forgets to mention climate change or the enormous environmental impact of coal, gas and oil.  

    Turns out Mills is a big investor in the oil & gas industries and is with the free-market think tank the Manhattan Institute (MI). They are well-funded by the fossil fuel companies like Exxon and Koch Industries and known for its efforts to gut environmental regulations, cut welfare spending (except corporate), and lobby for tax breaks. 

    Mills’ has no particular expertise in energy or science, other than an undergraduate degree. That hasn’t stopped him from posing as an energy expert to attack renewables in videos and opinion articles (op eds). 

    First find out who is behind the curtain

    I researched this before even looking at the content of Mills’ video. The Need-to-Know for me is to first find out who is behind the curtain because good propaganda is convincing and contains some accurate, factual information. It takes expertise or a lot of investigation to untangle the distortions, half-truths and cherry-picked data.

    Second find out if they have an agenda

    So before reading or listening to someone I want to know if they have any expertise, if they have a political agenda or a vested interest in the topic. Then I can decide if I want to listen to what they have to say.

    I used two primary tools from my BS detector kit in this case: 

    Sourcewatch identifies who is behind and who funds various think tanks, institutes and other organizations. They document their research and I’ve found them to be reliable. 

    DeSmogBlog maintains an extensive database of both individuals and organizations who try to confuse the public and stall action on climate change. International in scope. There are far more than you think — I use the search function a lot.

    Texas blackout’s perfect storm of misinformation 

    Last week there was a blizzard of lies claiming that the massive power blackout in Texas was caused by frozen wind turbines. A Need-to-Know is there are wind turbines in Antarctica generating electricity for US and New Zealand research bases. And it also gets pretty cold in Alberta where wind turbines have been spinning away since 1993.

    During that record-cold in Texas some turbines didn’t work because someone failed to ensure they were winterized. Practically every major news outlet in the US, as well as independent fact-checkers, have debunked the big lie that millions of Texans were without heat and power because renewables are no good.

    Unsurprisingly Fox News blamed wind turbines for the blackout 128 times over two days according to MediaMatters.

    Oily quid pro quo

    Ted Cruz and other Republican politicians from Texas who blamed wind turbines also happen to get buckets of cash from the oil and gas industry. In fact Cruz and two others pocketed $1.1 million in the 2020 election cycle according to an investigation. And Cruz wasn’t even up for re-election. 

    If you read that article I linked to you’ll also see Texas Governor Greg Abbott received $1.6 million last year from one oil company CEO, and nearly as much again from some other Texas oil tycoons.

    Even in Canada know-nothing pundits like Rex Murphy used the Texas blackout as an excuse to deny climate change for the zillionth time and to claim renewables are a waste time. Murphy has received buckets of cash from the fossil fuel industry, a fact that is almost never disclosed in the newspapers, websites, TV programs where he appears.

    No expertise, a political agenda and vested financial interest — So why read it?

    Murphy has no expertise in energy or science but he does have a clear vested interest and a political agenda as a climate denier. His expertise is as a clever, engaging and supremely confident propagandist. In other words, a snake-oil salesmen loudly claiming environmentalists with their vested interests in clean air and a stable climate are the real snake-oil merchants.

    The Texas blackout became the ‘perfect storm’ to attack clean, low-cost renewable energy to prevent it from kicking fossil fuels to the curb. And the attack has been loud and sustained with the new Biden administration’s intent on serious actions to reduce US carbon emissions. 

    The shock doctrine at work 

    The attack was also intended to distract from the real causes—climate change-fueled extreme weather and failure to maintain Texas’ electricity infrastructure— which is primarily gas.

    Author and activist Naomi Klein has documented how this kind of disaster is often used to push "unpopular free-market policies that tend to enrich elites at everyone else’s expense”. Klein explains how this “shock doctrine” works in a new op ed

    The Texas disaster is already paying off. “Obviously, this week is like hitting the jackpot,” boasted the CEO of Comstock Resources, a shale gas drilling company as gas prices skyrocketed and households faced electricity bills over $16,000 according to the Intercept and New York Times. 

    We all Need-to-Know that the lies, distortions and misinformation about climate change, wind and solar energy, as well as electric vehicles are going to escalate as the US and the rest of the world make the transition to low-carbon living. There will be loud and sustained efforts to sow doubt and confusion to slow and delay this absolutely essential transition to protect our future.

    However we’ve already had two decades of delay. There’s no time for debate. We need to rush, to make a rapid transition knowing there will be mistakes along the way. 


    Tools to reinforce your own BS detector

    No tool is perfect. I use multiple ones to look behind the curtain and debunk false claims.

    The big picture tool

    Merchants of Doubt: A documentary film and a book on the tobacco industry roots and how the whole climate denial industry operates. I reviewed the film for The Guardian a few years back. 

    The how-to handbook tool

    The Debunking Handbook 2020 from George Mason University. It’s a 12 page guide on how-to debunk misinformation by 22 academics — yep misinformation and propaganda is so persuasive today it’s become an academic discipline

    Sharpen your BS detection instincts tool

    The Cranky Uncle game uses cartoons and critical thinking to fight misinformation. It’s a free app and fun to use while challenging. Great even for kids.

    The best fact checker tools

    FactCheck.org — US focused but excellent for coronavirus and Facebook misinformation

    Politifact–  rates the accuracy of claims by elected officials and others who speak up in American politics.  Won the Pulitzer Prize. 

    AFP Fact Check– fact check fake photos and videos as well. This is the best for non-USA fact checks.

    Snopes— one of the first — covers a huge range of topics from Nigerian email scams to latest facebook lies

    Media watchdog tools

    Climate Feedback is a worldwide network of scientists sorting fact from fiction in climate change media coverage. Helps readers know which news to trust.  [Coverage is thin - can’t keep up with deluge]

    MediaMatters. This is a liberal site with ties to US Democrats for monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. Media. I use them occasionally and it helps to be aware of their bias. 

    Media Bias / Fact Check  — A database that assess bias and accuracy of over 3600 media sources. 


    A final thought: Memes are not the best way to get your news. Memes have been hi-jacked too. For example iFunny memes, a meme-sharing app from Russia, is chock-full of misleading claims.

    Until next time, stay safe

    One of the reasons I left my corporate career all those ago was to write about what I believed were need to know science and environmental issues. 

    My work has appeared in dozens of publications including National Geographic news, The Guardian, Vice, New Scientist, Al Jazeera, Maclean’s Magazine, Changing America, The Toronto Star, Wired News, and publications in Europe and Asia. I received the SEAL Award for Environmental Journalism two years running for my work documenting climate change impacts and solutions at National Geographic and Vice

    I previously received the Prince Albert/United Nations Global Prize for reporting on international environmental issues as a result of my years as the senior science and environment correspondent at the Rome-based, Inter Press Service News Agency (IPS), the world’s largest not-for-profit news agency.

    My one and only book, “Your Water Footprint  (“…a brilliant and shocking exposé on precisely how much water we use…”— Publishers Weekly) was awarded Best Science Book of the Year in Canada.

    "University of Kings College journalism professor Kim Kierans said newspaper companies have been 'bleeding red ink' from lack of advertising, even more so since the pandemic.

    Kierans is glad to hear the BNI memo says reporters will still be working and able to tell their stories in those communities.

    She pointed out that Nova Scotia's Saltwire Network of Newspapers went further than BNI, laying off 240 staff for 12 weeks.

    But the closing of local newspaper offices, she said, will definitely leave a hole in those communities.  

     "The newspaper is the town square," Kierans said. "People drop in. They pick up papers there, they drop off advertising there, and you have a sense of exchange of ideas. People talking to one another."

    Brunswick News to close community newspaper offices across province

    Employees will work from home, says BNI memo

    Community newspapers across New Brunswick are losing their offices, many of them in the heart of their small cities and towns, after a decision shared with staff this week by Brunswick News Inc.

    In an internal memo issued Monday, BNI vice-president Jamie Irving told staff the offices would be closed permanently and employees would work from home.

    The offices to close are home to the Kings County Record in Sussex, the Miramichi Leader, the Campbellton Tribune, the Northern Light in Bathurst, the Bugle Observer in Woodstock, and the Victoria Star and Cataracte newspapers in Grand Falls. BNI offices in Richibucto, Edmundston and St. Stephen will also close.

    Sussex Mayor Marc Thorne of Sussex called it a "sad day" for every community affected.

    "I think it's just a terrible thing," Thorne said Tuesday. "BNI may feel that nothing's been lost, that they're still going to cover the communities, but I can promise you that's not the case. If you don't have people living and working in your community and building relationships, you don't have the same quality of paper at all."

    The newspaper company will keep the locations of its three daily papers open, although the Telegraph-Journal in Saint John and the Daily Gleaner in Fredericton had already moved from the buildings they'd occupied for decades into less central properties.

    The Moncton Times & Transcript, where BNI prints its daily and community newspapers, remains on Main Street.

    Emails and calls by CBC News to BNI publisher Mike Powers and editor-in-chief Jackson Doughart were not returned.

    As with many businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, BNI staff have been working from home as a safety measure.

    Madeleine Leclerc, the former editor of the Cateracte and Victoria Star, said the writing was on the wall three years ago when she left the company.

    The reporters were being pressed to focus less on very local stories and to do more that would be of interest to people around the province who read the Telegraph-Journal.

    Fears for local news

    "I hope that our weeklies are not going to be forgotten or passed over for the provincial edition," Leclerc said. "That's what I hope. And if they do cover, then it gets printed in the TJ, I hope it's not buried on the back page."

    It is not clear from the BNI memo if the weekly papers will continue to produce print editions. Production of the English-language daily and weeklies is already centralized in Saint John.

    While the office closures are disappointing news, David Cadogan, former owner of several weeklies, including the Miramchi Leader and Kings County Record, said COVID-19 was likely the last straw for the newspaper chain.

    "I'm frankly very, very sad," Cadogan said. "I certainly don't blame Brunswick News. These are just the absolute doomsday times for newspapers."

    Pandemic would have worsened problems

    Cadogan said the closure of businesses during the pandemic would have hurt  the advertising revenue that helps keep offices open and staff employed.

    "It's a terrible, terrible time to be in the newspaper business, so I understand what they are up against and I understand the necessity for what they are doing."

    Cadogan said he believes that even this is a just a stop-gap step for the newspapers as people have known them for many years.

    "They are essentially on the way out," he said, adding this is happening all across Canada and the United States.

    A 'champion' for a community

    He believes it is a huge loss for communities, who need a "healthy independent newspaper to champion for the community and stick up for its interests, work its politicians and discover any bad behaviour that's taking place in the government or the public."

    "You know the community needs a champion and someone to stick up for the citizens, their readers."
    Cadogan questions who will do that when community newspapers close completely.

    "If the people will not support a newspaper — advertisers and citizens — they're going. And I'm not blaming the people for that because all the other things working against the newspapers are making it pretty well impossible for them to exist as we knew them."

    University of Kings College journalism professor Kim Kierans said newspaper companies have been 'bleeding red ink' from lack of advertising, even more so since the pandemic.

    Kierans is glad to hear the BNI memo says reporters will still be working and able to tell their stories in those communities.

    She pointed out that Nova Scotia's Saltwire Network of Newspapers went further than BNI, laying off 240 staff for 12 weeks.

    But the closing of local newspaper offices, she said, will definitely leave a hole in those communities.
     "The newspaper is the town square," Kierans said. "People drop in. They pick up papers there, they drop off advertising there, and you have a sense of exchange of ideas. People talking to one another."

    This is a key reason (amongst many) why I created The Dennis Report in 2013 and carry on with today (see Facebook, Youtube or website). To offer in-depth, authentic and local/provincial stories and conversations on New Brunswick. We have no place to tell and share what is happening in our province, and all the good things we do. Please watch.

    I am a fluently-bilingual journalist in Bathurst with more than 25 years of experience as a reporter and editor and I have studied business administration in college.
    Any business and community leaders in Bathurst who want to have a home-grown newspaper here to rival what is left of The Northern Light are welcome to contact me and back me financially to open a new community newspaper in our city.
    When I first moved to Bathurst back in 2001, The Northern Light had an editorial staff of four and was thicker than the Telegraph-Journal is now. It was also printed right here in Bathurst.
    The printing presses were carted away. The Northern Light building was destroyed. The editorial staff was cut and then cut again. Now, even the rented offices of The Northern Light are disappearing.
    Do you want a community newspaper in Bathurst? Do you think you deserve one, that Bathurst is big enough and has enough readers and businesses to support one?
    If you the answers to those questions is "Yes", then I would be happy to work with you to help make that happen.

    Reply to @Mac Isaac: it all ended the day the internet was created. Now everyone, and I mean everyone can be a reporter, just look at that guy who asked that girl to put her dog on a leash! Bam, he is now a reporter. Or that guy in N.S. who did that flooding thing. BAM, another reporter and on and on. If you want to get the news out just walk in town and film interesting stuff or people and put it on facebook! BAM, NOW you are a reporter!!


    Mac Isaac
    Reply to @Graeme Duke-Gibbs: Journalism is NOT exactly the same as "reporting". Journalists will actually delve into a subject whereas what you're referring to as "BAM, another reporter" is nothing more or less than doing a video which can be manipulated in whatever way that person or another wishes. Journalists actually write! A long time ago I knew a man who created a community newspaper which was quite a good newspaper. It didn't pretend to have as an objective, a Pulitzer but it reported on the weekly happenings in that town and elsewhere in the area. Revenue paid for the staff, make-up and printing as well as distribution. Suddenly that was all gone because the local daily saw their revenue drop a little. This daily then went to all the advertisers and offered wider distribution at half the price charged by the weekly. We all know where this led! BUT, and this is important, the daily DIDN'T suddenly pull up stakes. It actually created another weekly which did much of what the first did; only better! This new weekly actually won awards for the stories it did. I daresay there's little to no community involvement in the kind of "reporting" to which you refer. If all you want is biased "reporting" you're in luck because that's what you're going to get...in spades! Unregulated "reporting" is about to become the norm when the only news you'll be able to access is online. Actual journalism, vis a vis in the local communities, is effectively dead. And that's incredibly sad for all of us; including those of us who get SOME of our information from online sources.

    Reply to @Donald Smith: That's because the printing of the newspaper takes time and they are still trying to cover breaking news as if theirs was the only news source in town.

    The solution to this problem is for newspaper journalists to do investigative reporting and write features that are original and interesting and something you can't find anywhere else.

    I find it hard to understand that a communications company like this decided that the way to communicate a change in the way they are positioned in communities across the province would choose an email to staff to disseminate in what ever way the public wishes to believe has happened. I can appreciate that things have changed only it did not just happen with current events. There were better ways to do this and in my opinion it included communicating.

    need a "healthy independent newspaper to champion for the community and stick up for its interests, work its politicians and discover any bad behaviour that's taking place in the government or the public." True, but that's something Brunswick News is not. The papers are probably operating at a loss given the state of newspapers everywhere, but they continue to exist to try and steer public opinion and promote their own agenda. Just another tool that can be used to pressure politicians as well. I don't believe there exists an independent newspaper or news outlet anywhere. The last few months have only solidified that opinion.

    Reply to @Justin Time: Online news has become the only source to find the truth. BNI would not print any story that went against their interest. They fired a cartoonist because he would not do what he was told. These newspapers are no longer useful to BNI so they cut them off.

    Reply to @John Smith: I'm a big fan of putting news online but you are sadly mistaken if you think that online news outlets are necessarily free of bias.

    A Blogger Who’s a Court-Approved Journalist

    Many bloggers describe themselves as journalists. Last week Charles LeBlanc, a rooming house resident who lives on social assistance in Fredericton, New Brunswick, received a court decision establishing his journalistic credentials.

    The confirmation came last Friday when a judge dismissed charges against Mr. LeBlanc of obstructing a police officer.

    For the last two years, Mr. LeBlanc has been expressing his views on poverty and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder through a blog (oldmaison.blogspot.com). The idea, he said, came from benefactors who also provided him a small digital camera and a computer.

    He declined to name the people, however, partly because at least one of them is employed by his favorite target: the many companies in New Brunswick controlled by the Irving family, which owns, according to a report on media ownership released by Canada’s Senate earlier this year, all the English-language daily newspapers in New Brunswick.

    In June, Mr. LeBlanc went to Saint John, New Brunswick, to report on a protest against a meeting of chamber of commerce and board of trade members from Atlantic Canada and New England. Protestors stormed the meeting. Mr. LeBlanc was among those arrested.

    Officers from the Saint John police testified they are regular readers of Mr. LeBlanc’s blog as part of their effort to gather intelligence on protests. William J. McCarroll, the provincial court judge who heard Mr. LeBlanc’s case, wrote in his decision that “Mr. LeBlanc is a ‘blogger.’ I’m sure that many, if not the majority of Saint Johners, are not familiar with this word.”

    After reviewing videotape from a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation crew at the scene, sometimes in slow motion, the judge found that it contradicted testimony of the arresting officer, Sergeant John Parks.

    “Members of the so called mainstream media were taking photographs and filming in the same area without interference from the police,” the judge wrote in a 20-page decision. “I believe it’s fair to say that the defendant was doing nothing wrong at the time he was approached by Sergeant Parks and placed under arrest. He was simply plying his trade, gathering photographs and information for his blog alongside other reporters.”

    The judge also said that the police had no right to delete about 200 photos stored on Mr. LeBlanc’s camera.

    Mr. LeBlanc said he had considered improving his skills by studying journalism at a local university. That is, until its journalism department accepted a donation of 1 million Canadian dollars from the Irvings. “Do you think I could study in a classroom listening to an Irving employee?” he asked.

    Judge says defamation law will eventually tame internet

    Blogger Charles LeBlanc ordered to pay $2,925 in court costs to Fredericton as lawsuit dismissed

    By Alan White, CBC NewsPosted: Mar 21, 2017 3:00 PM AT 

    A lawsuit against the City of Fredericton by blogger Charles LeBlanc has been dismissed by the Court of Queen's Bench.

    Court of Queen's Bench Justice Paulette Garnett says defamation laws will eventually tame "the Wild West" of the internet.

    Garnett makes the statement in her March 16 decision that dismissed a claim by blogger Charles LeBlanc that the City of Fredericton breached his rights under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

    Acrimonious history


    LeBlanc has an acrimonious history with the Fredericton Police Force that culminated in a charge of criminal libel under Section 301 of the Criminal Code being laid against LeBlanc for posting on his blog at various times that a Fredericton constable was a "fascist cop" and "sexual pervert."

    LeBlanc also used a bullhorn outside the Fredericton police station to state the force employs "sexual perverts" and that the constable who issued him a ticket in 2011 for bicycling without a helmet in the city's downtown was a "faggot."

    ​New Brunswick's Attorney General eventually directed in 2012 that the criminal libel charge against LeBlanc be dropped because several other provinces had found Section 301 of the Criminal Code to be unconstitutional.

    In November 2016, LeBlanc was informed by two members of the Edmundston Police Force that he was being investigated for defamatory libel under Section 300 of the Criminal Code following a complaint lodged with the Fredericton force.

    Because of its contentious history with LeBlanc, the Fredericton force asked Edmundston police to investigate the complaint.

    Child sexual exploitation cited


    Meanwhile, LeBlanc initiated the lawsuit against the City of Fredericton and its police force because in the initial criminal libel investigation, Det. Robb Costello made an official request for information about LeBlanc's internet usage by stating he was carrying out a criminal investigation related to child sexual exploitation.

    Following a two-day hearing last week, Garnett dismissed LeBlanc's lawsuit, noting that the city filed 17 affidavits in the case and LeBlanc did not file any, so the only evidence before the court was the city's.

    "This evidence leads to the conclusion that the actions of the City were done in good faith, that the procedures were in keeping with the policies of the police department, that Mr. LeBlanc was treated in the same way as any other citizen in similar circumstances and that his [Charter] rights were not infringed," Garnett says in her ruling.​

    Garnett ordered that LeBlanc pay $2,925 to the city in court costs.
    'He believes that his right to free speech includes the right to defame others with impunity.'- Paulette Garnett, Court of Queen's Bench justice
    However, in her decision Garnett comments on defamation in the internet age.

    "Although Mr. LeBlanc clings to his rights under the Charter, it does not appear that he has any concern for the rights of others," Garnett writes. "He believes that his right to free speech includes the right to defame others with impunity.

    "One commentator has compared the internet to the Wild West and although the common-law action for defamation may take time to tame it, it will eventually do so. Those who carelessly or viciously attack their neighbours should beware of the Lone Ranger."

    When you look at all the incidents involving the Fredericton City Police and Mr. LeBlanc ; then it is obvious that the police has abused its authority on several occasions when dealing with Mr. LeBlanc . This includes such instances as raiding his home , and seizing his computer equipment ; petty charges such as riding a bicycle without a helmet , etc . As this current case proves , it is difficult for a man like Mr. LeBlanc who has limited funds to fight the City of Fredericton who is funded by the taxpayers . It is truly an injustice .

    @Matt Steele Ask yourself an obvious question. If you go to Chucky's Leblanc"s blog you will see that last evening he was reading this CBC article and no doubt all the comments as well. I would bet dimes to dollars all the cops and politicians in Fredericton are reading them too.

    If Chucky were truly an honest dude then why does he not defend himself in this comment section instead of allowing people like you to comment on his behalf in his defense?

    After all you and Chucky cannot deny that this domain controlled by the Crown is supported by taxpayers who also pay for Chucky's welfare and health care. I know why Chucky does not speak up in a public domain which he can do for free. It quite simply is because he cannot control the comment section and delete his responses if he becomes embarrassed by his own published words. More importantly Chucky cannot block folks he calls "Coward Jerk faces" because in fact that is just exactly what he is.

    @David Raymond Amos Interesting that CBC would block that comment I guess just like their blogging buddy Chucky I will have to blog it N'esy Pas?

    David Raymond Amos
    @David Raymond Amos At the very least CBC should not deny the fact that these are Chucky's words last night about this article about him.

    Blogger gives his views on the decision of Court of Queen's Bench Justice Paulette Garnett!

    https://youtu.be/UMeC2MFxhmI


    I wish we had true Journalists that would investigate issues. The Judge wants me to pay court cost.. < good luck with that one >..but seriously....How much money have the Lawyers made from the Taxpayers to pursue this case? < Trust me it's not over yet >

    Must be well over $100,000!!!!

    Posted by Charles Leblanc at 10:51 pm

    Everybody knows that Chucky and I hate each other with a passion and that I am proud of my Scottish ancestors and that he is not. However the Scottish guy in me agrees that it is kinda strange that CBC knew of the judge's decision before the French dude did. However everybody knows how the Crown plays with the Justice System in New Brunswick N'esy Pas Blaine, David, Justin, Dominic, Brian, Serge and Denis???

    There's a big difference in making these claims when one side admits 17 affidavits and the other side doesn't know what an affidavit is. He represented himself, and all anybody has to do is read Bernard Richard's report on the matter to know that he was not 'treated like any other citizen'.

    Even Bernard Richard said that it was pretty specious for an officer to ticket Charles for riding a bicycle without a helmet immediately after Charles had videotaped fredericton police officers beating a guy on the ground.

    The incident of the form couldn't be proven to be fraudulant, which doesn't make it not so. The police maintained it was 'an error' that they somehow used the child exploitation form to get the IP address rather than the criminal libel form, which is pretty ludicrous on the face of it.

    And even the fredericton police force admitted that they made a mistake in taking Charles computer to read through all his correspondence for a charge which was ultimately dropped.

    While I agree that Charles was irresponsible with his comments, the fact is that nobody in their right mind would take such comments seriously, and had Charles the money for a lawyer this case would have turned out far differently. For one thing, Charles comments have ZERO to do with whether the police force infringed on his rights, its interesting that the judge spends more time talking about what HE did rather than what the police did. But its hardly surprising.

    @Rick Aubie Thats not exactly true. Best that you confer with the CSE and their Yankee and British cohorts within the Five Eyes. They know a few tricks that would astound the most clever of hackers. I know for a fact that the RCMP and the FBI often partake of their cyber space expertise.

    However down here in the Maritmes we have are local clowns like Chucky who think that they are untouchable and are surprised when they push things way past too far. Remember this article by CBC?

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/charles-leblanc-fredericton-police-libel-1.3853481


    I'm waiting for the next shoe to drop signaling that Chucky has finally been properly arrested and charged under Section 300 and 319 of the Canadian Criminal Code.

    For the record I also suspect that the nasty little dude attacking the young lady in Moncton will be cornered in short order.merely because it is politically important to do so.

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/university-moncton-emails-police-no-contact-1.4033306

    Too bad that the RCMP and the FBI did not work so diligently when they knew my kids were being harassed on the Internet since 2005 and it obvious malice continues to this very day.

    He won't have to pay. The province has a program for people who don't have the means. I also think the judge is dreaming in technicolor if she thinks you can tame anyone you can't identify. Mr. LeBlanc's case is special in that regard. Trump's been slandering and defaming non stop. How typical is it that try and make examples of poor people who can't make things go away with their money. Court looks foolish here thinking it has more power than it does.

    @Phil Peters The only thing about Chucky's case is that has managed to get away with the obvious malice for so long.

    One can only hope Judge Garnett. The sooner some realize the internet is not as annomyous as they think then yes it will settle Down.

    But news media like this one, CBC, could do a better job vetting some of its posters to ensure those you still use made up names stop posting or commenting. When this media and others made the policy change I went right away with my real name! CBC as done a great job but other media needs to come on board.

    Here is the real reason Hamm quit it is at the very bottom of this particular blog. This email is also why the dudes in Fredericton are so nervous these days. Simply put I'm back. I can only wonder how long this Blog will remain before Chucky Leblanc deletes it in order to cover up the public corruption he secretly supports.

    Subject: Fwd: Re: This is who I am Bobby Baby. Read it and weep.


    I had to respond to this. Brian Gaudet should have read my last email before bouncing it back to me with his insults. I was already gone. At least this Frenchman, sounds more like a proper Maritimer. Yet if he was going to spout off to me he should have been man enough to say it front of the rest of you too. Let us all see if he has truly Billy Gates blocking me after trying to pick a fight with me. Yahoo will tell the tale on that. That said, I do admire that he defends his wife's name and is willing to fight about it even if he does not understand the issues. That is honourable but dumb. I was confused that the email address said two mech so I suspect that he may be a mechanic just like me and not any sort of lawyer or newsman either. I like that as well.
    It seems he has been raised on the four F's just like me. Only thing is I ain't hiding behind an electronic mask like he said. If he had bothered to read I had even inserted my phone number. I will be coming to Sackville very soon but by then your protests will likely be over and I would be met with the indifference that I was faced with last year. So I will bother you all no more even though I will be forwarding and blogging this email in many other places. It is the same methods that the locked out people employed to bring CBC to the table. they have no right to put down my actions against them. I do not wish to speak to the CBC or the employees about a lawsuit I am filing against the Crown because of their actions against me. That would be kinda dumb even for a Maritimer don't you think? I would rather have spoken to pissed off people CBC had locked out of work. It made far more sense to me.
    I have many friends in the Sackville area. Perhaps Frenchy should ask around about me to some mechanics he may know to see if most folks who know me well think me to be a liar. He should not rely on CBC to find out the truth about me. To offset any confrontations from people he did not know, Frenchy should have told his wife not to use his email address. If he did not want to be bothered by people she and her other CBC buddies had ignored last year during the last federal election he should have told me out of the gate that he was not his wife. She could have gotten her own hotmail account like my eleven year old in Amherst just did. Instead she used her husband's email to tell the world on the internet that she was actively protesting being out of work? She was soliticiting our support for her plight but in the next electronic breath her husband proves that they care about nobody else? CBC and all of its reporters are the bullshitters in this matter not me. They are self centered greedy bastards also.
    CBC does have a mandate to give all people running for a seat in Parliament equal time not just the people the reporters want to win. That is the law and their mandate as a Crown Corp. In case you are reading this Brian Gaudet talk tough all you wish. I don't scare easy because I am too dumb to know fear. Ask the Secret Service who tried to take me away to Cuba over two years ago or the jailers who threw me in the hole last year because I was pretty pissed off if I am a chickenshit or not. Because I display no fear people label me as crazy in order to make themselves feel better about their own cowardice. I have walked the walk for far too long to be frightened by anyone now. I live each day as my last. Only integrity surprises me now. It is a rare thing to find combined with age and power.
    If you don't believe me or think I am harrassing you in any way why not call the RCMP or sue me French?. Bring along this email to prove how I have offended you. I will love to argue the Crown about it in court. I will bring along what I served upon the CBC in Saint John while I was running for Parliament last year. It should make for an interesting argument that CBC will not report. Their lawyers have not answered me yet but many others have and know tha CBC got my material too. It appears that i must sue to get an answer as to why the CBC ignored its mandate.
    Frenchy I would prefer to meet your lawyer face to face in court in a civil lawsuit rather than duke it out on the street with you and inspire another criminal matter. Besides I have too much to lose even if I won such a senseless thing in court or in the street. You are another ordinary asshole like me. There is no need to battle with you. I am getting too old for such nonsense now but I will certainly defend myself from anyone. If you wish to pursue the matter be forewarned that I don't fight fair anymore. If perchance I lose I am very big on getting even. My battles are never over until that happens. What I teach my son also holds true for me. I tell him to never back down from anyone because it is too expensivee to one's own pride and you will have to run from bullies your whole life. In truth a brawl proves nothing at all except how dumb we can be. Nevertheless like hockey fighting can be a great sport sometimes. Confused? Me too. what do you teach your son Frenchy?
    Like you Frenchy I prefer face to face confrontations but only in front of many witnesses these days so that nobody can accuse me of saying or doing anything wrong. If you wish to fight, call the cops first and announce your intentions then all that I ask of you is that you throw the first swing so that my actions will be in defence. Is that OK with you Frenchy??????
    You are right about one thing though. Nobody cares. However it is not stupid of me to piss people off. It is merely one of those things I do that nobody seems to appreciate. It works like a charm to get others to prove to me that they are assholes. The big difference between an asshole like me and an asshole like you is that I care about what happens to others. You don't. If you disagree why not help another Maritimer by the name of Byron Prior. He needs all the help he can get. I don't. You don't even have to Google him. Read the portion of his his web site that was at the bottom of the second email I sent to you today. If you have any heart in you at all pick up the phone and call him to see if he is for real for yourself. I did the best I could to help him with his litigation against Billy Matthews and all his Newfy buddies while your wife's buddy Ian Hannamansing who is from Sackville only called Byron a liar while he was doing his big special in Newfoundland about justice last year.
    If my memory of what Byron said about the show that night is correct, your wife's fellow CBC workers carefully edited Byron from any of their tapes shown on TV while the Attorney General Tommy Marshall's son sat right by his side and made it on TV. In my opinion the CBC dudes in Newfoundland should all be fired ASAP for that reason alone. That fact has nothing to do with me and my concerns whatsoever. All Canadians were denied the opportunity to hear what Byron Prior had to say about how justice is being served in the Maritimes. It should make no difference at all whether or not Hannamansing thought of Byron a lair. We all had the right to hear what he had to say after CBC had invited the public they work for to speak on TV. How else can we decide the truth about anything if we do not hear from all sides? This is a Democracy isn't it is free speech a myth on public TV? CBC does not have the right to to be judge and jury simply because they have the ability to edit tapes.
    Get it Frenchy???????????
    Here is my phone number again Frenchy 506 434 1379 if you wish to ask me any questions. I will not bother to look up yours. I do not care about you think anymore if you don't wish to speak man to man. I will do as you requested and merely leave you all alone just like I said in the last email I ever intended to send to any of the CBC crowd. Now that they are comfortably back at work editing the truth for Paul Martin's benefit not ours, I know it would be fruitless to approach them anymore.
    Before you give me a call Frenchy, perhaps you should review email that you bounced back to me. For your education here is my face as well and an article about me in a local paper then ask yourself why the CBC reporters ignored an interesting little circus.
    I ain't hiding and I ain't a lair. I am just another Maritime asshole just like you Frenchy. You should understand me as being a simple, sincere and serious asshole even if you do not believe that I am a man with some pretty serious beefs against the corrupt justice system and the CBC that helps it in its malice towards us all. It is late and my rambling rant is over. As I wrote this I kept remmbering my encounters with the Frenchy from the far side of my hometown of Dorchester last year. His name is Charles LeBlanc. Man that bastard is full of hot air. I had to get this off my chest. I will sleep better with you dismissed from my mind too. Good luck with your own conscience from now on. Say Hey to Chucky Leblanc for me will ya> Like you he is blocking my emails after sending me a flood of them last year. I will lay odds your wife knows of him. The Maritimes ain't that big a place and he is quite a bragger.

    Raising a Little Hell- Lively Debate Provokes Crowd

    By Erin Hatfield

    "If you don't like what you got, why don't you change it? If your world is all screwed up, rearrange it."

    The 1979 Trooper song Raise a Little Hell blared on the speakers at the 8th Hussars Sports Center Friday evening as people filed in to watch the Fundy candidates debate the issues. It was an accurate, if unofficial, theme song for the debate.

    The crowd of over 200 spectators was dwarfed by the huge arena, but as they chose their seats, it was clear the battle lines were drawn. Supporters of Conservative candidate Rob Moore naturally took the blue chairs on the right of the rink floor while John Herron's Liberalswent left. There were splashes of orange, supporters of NDP Pat Hanratty, mixed throughout. Perhaps the loudest applause came from a row towards the back, where supporters of independent candidate David Amos sat.

    The debate was moderated by Leo Melanson of CJCW Radio and was organized by the Sussex Valley Jaycees. Candidates wereasked a barrage of questions bypanelists Gisele McKnight of the Kings County Record and Lisa Spencer of CJCW.

    Staying true to party platforms for the most part, candidates responded to questions about the gun registry, same sex marriage, the exodus of young people from the Maritimes and regulated gas prices. Herron and Moore were clear competitors,constantly challenging each other on their answers and criticizing eachothers’ party leaders. Hanratty flew under the radar, giving short, concise responses to the questions while Amos provided some food for thought and a bit of comic relief with quirky answers. "I was raised with a gun," Amos said in response to the question of thenational gun registry. "Nobody's getting mine and I'm not paying 10 cents for it."

    Herron, a Progressive Conservative MP turned Liberal, veered from his party'splatform with regard to gun control. "It was ill advised but well intentioned," Herron said. "No matter what side of the house I am on, I'm voting against it." Pat Hanratty agreed there were better places for the gun registry dollars to be spent.Recreational hunters shouldn't have been penalized by this gun registry," he said.

    The gun registry issues provoked the tempers of Herron and Moore. At one point Herron got out of his seat and threw a piece of paper in front of Moore. "Read that," Herron said to Moore, referring to the voting record of Conservative Party leader Steven Harper. According to Herron, Harper voted in favour of the registry on the first and second readings of the bill in 1995. "He voted against it when it counted, at final count," Moore said. "We needa government with courage to register sex offenders rather than register the property of law abiding citizens."

    The crowd was vocal throughout the evening, with white haired men and women heckling from the Conservative side. "Shut up John," one woman yelled. "How can you talk about selling out?" a man yelled whenHerron spoke about his fear that the Conservatives are selling farmers out.

    Although the Liberal side was less vocal, Kings East MLA Leroy Armstrong weighed in at one point. "You’re out of touch," Armstrong yelled to Moore from the crowd when the debate turned to the cost of post-secondary education. Later in the evening Amos challenged Armstrong to a public debate of their own. "Talk is cheap. Any time, anyplace," Armstrong responded.

    As the crowd made its way out of the building following the debate, candidates worked the room. They shook hands with well-wishers and fielded questions from spectators-all part of the decision-making process for the June 28 vote.

    The Unconventional Candidate

    David Amos Isn’t Campaigning For Your Vote, But….

    By Gisele McKnight

    FUNDY—He has a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket, a chain on his wallet, a beard at least a foot long, 60 motorcycles and a cell phone that rings to the tune of "Yankee Doodle."

    Meet the latest addition to the Fundy ballot—David Amos.

    The independent candidate lives in Milton, Massachusetts with his wife and two children, but his place of residence does not stop him from running for office in Canada.

    One has only to be at least 18, a Canadian citizen and not be in jail to meet Elections Canada requirements.

    When it came time to launch his political crusade, Amos chose his favourite place to do so—Fundy.

    Amos, 52, is running for political office because of his dissatisfaction with politicians.

    "I’ve become aware of much corruption involving our two countries," he said. "The only way to fix corruption is in the political forum."

    The journey that eventually led Amos to politics began in Sussex in 1987. He woke up one morning disillusioned with life and decided he needed to change his life.

    "I lost my faith in mankind," he said. "People go through that sometimes in midlife."

    So Amos, who’d lived in Sussex since 1973, closed his Four Corners motorcycle shop, paid his bills and hit the road with Annie, his 1952 Panhead motorcycle.

    "Annie and I rode around for awhile (three years, to be exact) experiencing the milk of human kindness," he said. "This is how you renew your faith in mankind – you help anyone you can, you never ask for anything, but you take what they offer."

    For those three years, they offered food, a place to sleep, odd jobs and conversation all over North America.

    Since he and Annie stopped wandering, he has married, fathered a son and a daughter and become a house-husband – Mr. Mom, as he calls himself.

    He also describes himself in far more colourful terms—a motorcyclist rather than a biker, a "fun-loving, free-thinking, pig-headed individual," a "pissed-off Maritimer" rather than an activist, a proud Canadian and a "wild colonial boy."

    Ironically, the man who is running for office has never voted in his life.

    "But I have no right to criticize unless I offer my name," he said. "It’s alright to bitch in the kitchen, but can you walk the walk?"

    Amos has no intention of actively campaigning.

    "I didn’t appreciate it when they (politicians) pounded on my door interrupting my dinner," he said. "If people are interested, they can call me. I’m not going to drive my opinions down their throats."

    And he has no campaign budget, nor does he want one.

    "I won’t take any donations," he said. "Just try to give me some. It’s not about money. It goes against what I’m fighting about."

    What he’s fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood, the exploitation of the Maritimes’ gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to name a few.

    "The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs – fishing, farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I’m death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it (NAFTA) out the window.

    NAFTA is the North American Free Trade Agreement which allows an easier flow of goods between Canada, the United States and Mexico.

    Amos disagrees with the idea that a vote for him is a wasted vote.

    "There are no wasted votes," he said. "I want people like me, especially young people, to pay attention and exercise their right. Don’t necessarily vote for me, but vote."

    Although…if you’re going to vote anyway, Amos would be happy to have your X by his name.

    "I want people to go into that voting booth, see my name, laugh and say, ‘what the hell.’"

    Hey

    To put it simply in answer to your dumb request Mr. Sharpe. My answer is HELL NO. That is a nice as I can put it. I just called Katie Nicholson and introduced myself. I will it leave you to wonder whom I will call next. Your clue is that you sent them greetings as a Locked-Out brother in sunny St. Johns.

    To elaborate, I must say that I definitely will not go away. Look how you people act since you have been locked out of your jobs. You behave far worse tha I. In fact I may be coming to Newfoundland very soon to copy the material in the dockets of Newfoundland Supreme Court in the Billy Matthews versus Byron Prior matter as it pertains to me me. I need hard copy before I sue the CBC and the Crown. My question right now is hey Bobby Baby why don't I sue you too? Maybe I will come around and watch your people do their song and dance for their job. Perhaps you should try meeting me toe to toe and looking me in the eye if you want to meet a simple sincere and very serious man and then dare me to. I will be real easy to pick out. I am the hairy bastard in the Kilt once worn by a good friend of mine Ol Tom. He is one of the last of the Ladies from Hell. I wear it with his blessings. too many of his friends fought and died many years ago so that shit like this should not happen in our own nativeland. Even the Yankee bastard I call Deputy dog has met Ol Tom long before I dated the Yankee's sister. You bear the same first name as Deputy Dog Bobby Baby and you just forwarded all them your dumb little email that jerked this mangey old dog's chain bigtime. Need I say that my wife did not like receiving your response? She has warned me not to send out her email address anymore. Like her I do not listen real good sometimes but I did accomadate her on her birthday at least.

    Bobby Baby if you want someone's shoulder to cry on give the lady Liza Frulla a call. She is a former sister of yours correct? I think she may have some job security issues when there is finally a federal election called. The sooner the better for me and the NDP. Frulla did not answer me so I must remain a man of my word and pass this email on as I promised her I would. Quite honestly I did not expect her to answer me. Everybody knows that she does whatever Paul Martin and the warroom dudes within PCO/PMO offices tell her to do. I needed the proof of contact thats all because I was banking on the fact the warroom will tell her to ignore me. I was just playing her like a fiddlewhile fishing for response from yo sos like you and hopefully an ehtical person or two. Paul Dugas who likes to play the fiddle in the town where I was born should certainly get my joke. On the one year anniversary of Ashcroft visiting Canada and Wayne Easter's office talking to me, he joined a forum to yap about violins. I found the coincidence strangely comical. If Paul Dugas or anyone within the CBC had elected to report my doings on that day instead of talking about fiddlin etc, we would all be better off right now. The CBC recived received my material July 16th 2002, the very same day Argeo P. Cellucci did. That was long before the War on Iraq had started. Have your conscience dwell on that sad fact for a minute or two before you answer a lot of ghosts in your Heaven or Hell someday. As you can see I study people a bit and I already have a pretty good idea who will be naughty and who may be nice. I learned long ago cops, lawyers, bankers, priests and newsmen never are. So I attack them out of the gate but only in an ethical fashion byway of the written word and carefully worded phone calls. Newsmen should know that the word is mightier than the sword. You make your living by it you should die by it as well. Please fall on it ASAP or use it to hang the rest of the corrupt bastards. How is that for a challenge?

    Furthermore I like to do everything in threes just like they purportly do in Heaven and Hell. Now that Suzanne Gaudet, Paul Dugas from the town where I was born and you the Newfy Bobby Baby have responded to me you have sealed the fate of the Crown Corp of CBC for me. I need no more responses from the likes of you. Why spoil my own fun? I will likely not tell you anymore about what I am up to after I send the next email and print both of them as evidence to use in Federal Court. I will sue the Minister who oversees your conduct and none of you can ever say that you did not know the truth of my concerns before I did. The CRTC can go to Hell for all I care. Starting with their crooked little Minister many of the public servants under her supervision need to be replaced if the public trust in your profession is ever going to be upheld.

    Even though the unethical people at CBC, CTV and all other media pretend to have no understanding of what I mean, a lot of Maritimers understand me quite well already. Blogging is truly the only way to go these days. Watch out. Ordinary folks will replace you in a New York minute. Why else has CBC locked you out I might ask? It appears to me that only the Frenchmen has job security EH? Why do you think that is? Better yet look how quick Bloggers embarrassed Dan Rather before you call me a dreamer. That said look to find the text of this email in many Blogs in the near future and you can study the work of a very fierce political animal. All you should have to do is Google your own name or email address. Turn about is fair play. EH? If you don't like please sue me just like Billy Matthews did with Byron Prior. Google that name some time then tell me all is well in Newfoundland.

    It is my fellow Maritimers that I want pissed off at the CBC etc. and all the corrupt politicians they have chosen to support. I do not give two hoots about you as a man Bobby Baby. To me you are just a dumb little pawn in a big big game. I am taking on the Masters of War alone despite the laughter from the likes of you. IF you want some insight in to my character have Rudyard Kipling explain my nature to you within his wonderful poem called IF. I take his advice not your. thus you have the reason behind my simple answer of NO. What I would prefer though Newfy is for you to call me a liar in a public forum. I dare ya. You do not seem all that sharp to me so I will warn you I was raised to the F's of the Maritimes that your former Premier explained to the Yankees years ago. I found it funny the chickenshit named only three. So much for being politically correct EH? He came close but no cigar. Castro will get my joke someday soon. Here is me phone number 506 434-1379. Use it Newfy if you dare to use a phone with a caller ID. Otherwise do not bother at all. just find me in the Blogs.

    On a personal note Bill, I liked your voicemail to me. You and I should have a long talk sometime. I think it would be best to do in public in front of many witnesses who have no idea what we are talking about. I am up against some pretty bad acting Feds right now. I am sorry to say that I cannot afford to trust anyone. A very busy Bar or Diner where ordinary folk like me hang out are my favorite haunts. I know of a few down your way. Maybe I will give ya call when I am heading to your town. Better yet for the benefit of your party why not come see me ASAP? I ain't hard to find ask the RCMP. They have been watching me like a hawk.

    Suzanne Gaudet is just like Bill Hamilton, She plays the see no evil, hear no evil speak no evil game. While Maurice Doiron, Murray Meldrum and Paul Duhas just opt to play dumb. What must Liza Frulla think of all this. From my point of view you do nothing so why not replace you with nothing at at. It is cheaper for the Taxpayer to keep piping in the BBC. Bullshit is Bullshit no matter what the accent.

    Hey Lady Liza Frulla
    I got the following response from the email I just sent to one of your underlings Ms. Macphee so I called the number she suggested and got the usual governmental voicemail from her help so I left a message. I got a call back just now from her assistant at 819 997-0313. I told her that I would send this email to you and she affirmed my right to do so. However when she attempted to lay down the law to me, I told her I would see her in court. I prefer to argue their lawyers in court rather than spit and chew with civil servants on the phone on my dime. More importantly to me is that I responded to you her Minister byway of email because I require hard copy for evidence to use during the pending arguments of the complaint against the Crown that I do intend to file in Federal Court in Fredericton New Brunswick soon. I am sending you two more emails after this one because my lawyer advised awhile ago to try hard to make my matters well none to the media. From this point forward as the Minister who oversees the CRTC who can never saw that you did not know what many other have known for quite sometime. For what is worth in my humble opinion if you play your political cards right you could be our first Lady Prime Minister.
    I will give you Ms. Frulla the weekend to respond to me before I send this particular email to many others but many others will be receiving what Ms. Macphee aready got. I do not care what her assistant Ms Gable may think. She can gab to somebody else about what she wishes to inform me of. I have done my homework and need no advice from the likes of her. What Ms. Gable may not understand about me is that unlike Paul Martin I am a man of my word. I am just like him in one regard. I am also a very fierce political animal who is is equal and opposite in all things that define men. Martin is evil. I am not. Martin is a very wealthy lawyer. I am a just poor layman. Martin is labeled as Honourable and I am called as crazy as a loon. However I am a man Martin is not. He is a snake. I am indeed a very Proud Canadian who is definitely not proud of the people who speak for me. Get it Ms. Frulla?
    As Minister Responsible for Status of Women, you really should make certain that the integrity of all women in government does not come into question. From my point of view some women such as the Yankee Judges, Sidney Hanlon, Paula Carey and Cristina Harms for example do much harm to the reputation of your gender. What they have done to my little family in the USA in order to support the rampant public corruption in Canada and the USA should offend anyone with half a mind at all. My wife is a woman too after all. She has never done any wrong at all. Her only offence to the justice system was to stand against the politcally connected family members who had stolen her interests because no lawyer would dare speak for her. When she had her breakdown I took up the fight as any proud husband and father should. It is not only my right but my duty to protect my little Clan. The biggest difference in our genders is that men are not so quick to cry or back down from any bully. My wife is a very tender soul while I can be as mean as a the snake Paul Martin is.
    The New World of the Internet has afforded me quite a weapon to do battle with against the likes of Paul Martin and all his crooked cohorts. There is still a place in this Old World for a fierce ethical warrior such as I. Otherwise crooked men and women who are merely low people in high places to me will walk all over us common ordinary folk. I am no physical threat to anyone. I do battle with the word not the sword. It is mightier. Anyone who once worked for CBC should understand that simple fact.
    Furthermore this email is definitely not Spam. I am greatly offended when the powers that be label it as such and block it to protect their own greedy interests. Whether you or anyone else believe me or not, my communications are in the best interest of the public. I feel confident that it is much to the chagrin of the people who have failed the public trust in their elected and politically appointed positions. I suspect that is why Nancy Gabler sounded so pissed off just like the tone of Hélène Lapointe's email to me . Rest assured many Canadians will be reading this email after I sent it to you. It is me on the phone to your office right now after that I am putting a bunch of material in the mail and serving many lawyers in hand. My phone call is an ethical effort to introduce myself in order to prove to you that I am sincere.
    I know what I have sent to many Members of Parliament during the course of the past two years and I keep very good record to prove simple truths. For certain you just made my list of people who may be naughty or nice. After Xmas Martin must see that Gomery tells his tale and the Canadian people will decide once again who they think is naughty and nice. As as the freedom loving individual that I am I will decide long before then in the hope that my opinions become well known before an election is called. Whereas the people cannot depend on the CBC etc. to report all things of public interest, I will rely on the Blog.
    I have no doubt whatsoever that your buddies within the CBC reported heavily your run for a seat in Parliament last year. As one of our newest Ministers besides Belinda Stronach ask them for your own education why the CBC failed in their mandate to report my bid for a seat as well. Better yet if you want to have fun take it out with the nasty dudes inside the warroom of the PCO/PMO offices. I will wager my name is the biggest curse word in Parliament right now. I am certain that is why it is not said over the airwaves or put in print. From now on at least you can never say that you did not know my name too.
    I am begging ya, please do not be like two other women who once worked for the CBC Adrienne Clarkson and Michaelle Jean. Nobody is that dumb. They must have deliberatly ignored my laments because Paul Martin directed them to. May I suggest that you read this entire email from the point of view of an ethical Minister in charge of the public interest of the Canadian people? Please do the right thing despite what the leader of your party may wish. If not as you talk the talk on TV etc in the coming months about the doings of CBC and Parliament etc I will walk the walk and complain of many politicans in court. History has proven that in the end the truth usually wins out even if it is ignored in court in the present tense.
    By the way guess who is campaigning hard for a fall election? To have an election on Boxing Day is righteously fine by me. I ain't religious. Ask the Holy See or George W. Bush why. I dare ya.

    Excerpt from CTV.ca, Canada on Sep 27, 2005 of news by the Canadian Press

    "CBC employees in Quebec and Moncton, N.B., are not affected by the lockout.

    Information pickets set up early in the day under pouring rain didn't try to stop Prime Minister Paul Martin or Adrienne Clarkson, the Governor General, as they headed in for a morning news conference on Parliament Hill.

    Clarkson, who will be replaced Tuesday by Michaelle Jean, governor-general designate, leaned out of her car to speak with CBC pickets.

    At the rally, locked-out workers presented petitions signed by thousands of CBC fans calling for an end to the labour dispute.

    Heritage Minister Liza Frulla acknowledged the anger of the Canadian public, telling the rally that cabinet ministers have been hearing demands that something be done to get the network back in business.

    "All summer, we had messages from the population out there, messages from all through Canada, saying how they miss you," she told the rally. "



    I just had to insert the campaign manager for Oscar Doucet for Leader Hélène Lapointe's answer in comical font. It is too funny to do other wise. How is is that dor the local NDP trying hard to play dumb?

    The CBC and all others in the media and governemnt will not relay this crap to the people. Perhaps we the people should all ask the politicians who were elected to speak for us why I have been compelled to sue the Queen and the Holy See along with the USA.

    The sad part is so do you people. I am gonna tell everybody the truth about what CTV and CBC have refused to report for years for the benefit of the rampant public corruption you support for your own personal gain. Need I say that I am happy the crooked CBC dudes are locked out of work right now? It appears to me that blogging is the only way to go these days. What say you? Call me a liar after you hear me speak in Federal Court in Fredericton in the near future. I dare ya to have your lawyer Martine Turcotte explain why Robert C. Pozen has become George W. Bush's favorite Democrat. Better why not ask Sunlife's Yankee lawyer Jeffery Carp why a proud Maritimer smells a lot of rotten fish in Beantown.

    I figured you would do nothing to rock the Queen's boat for reasons of job security. However even you and your pension funds rely on the ethics of the Yankees employed by the SEC in the USA. Perhaps you should side with me ASAP. My kids need a roof over their heads. I am not above suing anyone to get one including the Queen and the Holy See. However it is your job to prosecute criminals not mine. Correct?



    "Ted Tax and the Department's Atlantic Regional Office (ARO) were honoured at a Nova Scotia Lieutenant Governor's Awards Ceremony. Tax was presented with a Certificate of Recognition for "contribution to the Reserve Force by taking positive action to assist its employees who are reservists in maintaining their commitments to the Canadian Forces." Following September 11, 2001, there was an increase in the demand for military legal officers on operational deployments. Major John Smithers, a lawyer with the Tax Law Services Section of the ARO, was granted military leave to serve on an overseas mission."



    For the record this is the text of the cover letter sent to Baker etc. Lets see what Mr. Speaker has to say now. I believe he is an ex cop ain't he? Lets see if he remembers how to uphold the law. If not don't you think it is high time that the lawyers in the NDP give the crooked Conservative Goverment the Boot? Everybody knows they are lapdogs for George W. Bush. Why else did he make it a point to fly down and see them last year and snub Paul Martin and his cohorts in Ottawa?

    RE: Public Corruption

    Hey,

    Apparently everybody wanted to play dumb about my concerns and allegations so that Humpty Dumpty Martin’s minority government would not fall and they could party hardy while the Queen was in Canada. As you all know months ago, I began faxing, emailing and calling the eight other Lt. Governors I had yet to cross paths with. I fully informed them of my indignation towards the Governor General Clarkson and two of her other Maritime Lieutenants Roberts and Chaisson before the latest wave of bad acting Yankees invaded my home in the USA without warrants or due process if law.

    I made certain all of the provincial Attorney Generals and Premiers can never deny the fact that I tried to make them well aware of my concerns and allegations in order to make everybody should sit up and pay attention. Not one person from any of your offices ever responded in any fashion at all. You can be certain that I expected the deliberate ignorance. It is one of the oldest tricks in the book that lawyers employ in order to play their wicked game of see no evil, hear no evil speak no evil. I knew it would happen particularly after Nova Scotia’s Conflict of Interest Commissioner Merlin Nunn had blocked my emails before I had contacted you. I have no doubt it helped to relieve him of his ethical dilemma before the NS NDP decided what to do about their chance to unseat the Conservatives. I have no doubt whatsoever many lawyers in Canada were praying that the Suffolk County District Attorney would have me back in the loony bin by April 28th and that all your troubles would go away. I opted to let you all have your way and did not bother you anymore until the Queen had left our shores and Parliament quit for the summer. Now it is my turn to have some fun and raise a little Political Hell.

    While the Queen, Clarkson and Martin where all having a grand old time on the Canadian dime my little Clan went through living hell down here. Trust me, lawyers need to learn some new tricks. Ignorance is no excuse to the law or me. Making some Canadian Attorney Generals and their political buddies show me their arses is child’s play to me after all that I have experienced in the last few years. If you doubt me ask Michael J. Bryant and Yvon Marcoux why I am so pissed at their bosses and the DHS. Then check my work for yourself. If the tag team of John Ashcroft and Tom Ridge could not intimidate me, believe me you people don’t have a prayer. Both of those dudes have quit their jobs but I am still standing and squaring off against their replacements now. If it were not for all the decent folks I know, the snotty ones like you would make me feel ashamed to be a Canadian. There is no shortage of lawyers. It is just that ethical ones that are rare birds, that’s all. You must know how easily the Canadian people can replace you with other lawyers if it becomes widely known how willing you are to ignore crime if it means some fancy dude may be compelled to suffer for his own wrongs.

    The justice system is supposed to be self-policing. It should clean up its own act rather than trying to maintain a false mask of integrity for lawyers that are obviously criminals. It is way beyond my understanding why you people would choose to support the likes of Paul Martin, Adrienne Clarkson, T. Alex Hickman and Billy Matthews if you are not all as crooked as hell as well. The deliberate ignorance and double-talk employed by the wealthy few to dodge simple truths is absolutely offensive to ordinary people blessed with the rare attribute called common sense. Not all folks are like sheep.

    Paul Martin’s latest tricks make for a very fine example of truly how bad things are. Even amidst wholesale scandals breaking out hell, west and crooked everywhere lawyers and politicians just close ranks and stand together as thick as the thieves they are. I stress tested the ethics of the ladies of the Bloc Quebecois and the Gomery Inquiry immediately after Martin’s carefully orchestrated little circus in Parliament on May 19th was a matter of history. Lets just say I was not surprised to not hear one peep in response from anyone other than to get a call from an unidentified and very nervous but cocky Yankee lawyer claiming that Tony Blair was mad at me.

    Pursuant to my phone calls, emails and faxes please find enclosed as promised exactly the same hard copy of what I sent to the Canadian Ambassadors Allan Rock and Franky Boy McKenna and a couple of nasty FBI agents on May 12th just before an interesting event in front of our home in Milton. I have also included a copy of four letters I have received in response since then that you may find interesting to say the least. I also sent you a copy of a letter sent to a lady Ms. Condolezza Rice whom our former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney considers to be the most powerful woman in the world. The CD of the copy of police surveillance tape # 139 is served upon all the above named Attorney Generals as officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated.


    I will not bother you with the details of what I am sending to you byway of the certified US Mail because I will be serving identical material to many other Canadian Authorities in hand and tell them I gave this stuff to you first and enclose a copy of this letter. All that is important to me right now is that I secure proof that this mail was sent before I make my way back home to the Maritimes. However I will say I am also enclosing a great deal more material than what Allan Rock had received in the UN. Some of it is in fact the same material the two maritime lawyers, Rob Moore and Franky Boy McKenna in particular received, while I was up home running for Parliament last year. Things have changed greatly in the past year so I have also included a few recent items to spice things up for you. I am tired of trying to convince people employed in law enforcement to uphold the law. So all I will say for now is deal will your own conscience and be careful how you respond to this letter. If you do not respond. Rest assured I will do my best to sue you some day. Ignorance is no excuse to the law or me.

    The enclosed letter from The Public Service Integrity Office, whose boss recently testified before the Gomery Inquiry and following quotes prove why I must speak out.

    "Well what do you expect?" said Le Hir in reaction. "Anybody who had been involved in that kind of thing isn't going to admit readily, or willfully, to having participated." Asked why he's waited 10 years to come out with his allegations, Le Hir said he was "sworn to secrecy.""I'm breaking that oath, and the only way I could have been relieved by that oath was by a judge in a court saying, 'Mr. Lehir, I understand that you have made an oath of secrecy; and you're hereby relieved of that oath."

    "Mr. Wallace added that police and the courts, not internal rules, are best-equipped to deal with bureaucrats who cross the line and break the law. But Judge Gomery did not appear satisfied. "It takes a major scandal to get the police involved," he said. "It is not in the nature of the public service to call in the police."

    Everybody knows that in order to protect the rights and interests of my Clan and to sooth my own soul, I have proven many times over that all lawyers, law enforcement authorities, and politicians in Canada and the USA are not worthy of the public trust. I maintain that their first order of business is to protect the evil longstanding system they have created for their own benefit rather than the people they claim to serve. Call me a liar and put it in writing. I Double Dog Dare ya.



    Baker got my material. So did everyone else. Only the Attorney General in Quecbec refused it. I bet our newest Governor General knows why. It is likely for the same reason she will not accept my emails. It should be obvious to anyone why I must sue the Crown.

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

    85 Charlotte Street, Suite 300

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

    The next question is does your buddy Vaughn Burnett still have the material that you promised you would serve upon Brad Green in June of 2004 for me? Has he listened to the CD which is a copy of police surveilance tape # 139? I will call hinm and you as witnesses to testify in Federal Court in Fredericton. The wannabe lawyer and you buddy Bernard Richard both admitted to me that they had the evidence before I was falsely imprisoned in the Yankee jail in 2004. So much for etyhical EH?

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

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

    Mr. David Raymond Amos,

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

    Merci.

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

    Re: Public Corruption

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Why you lied about me called me names and didn't give Brad Green my material as you promised spoke volumes to me about your integrity. Don't even try to argue me about my manners.

    A F F I D A V I T

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Much has happened good for me since then.

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

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

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

    updates from Charles

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

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

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

    I know Petey Baby MacKay don't love me so there is no sense in wasting my dime calling him. Hell he has refused to answer my letters or call me back even after Belinda Baby dumped him, so I do not expect him to do the right thing as Minister of Foreign Affairs other than to accept nasty little Franky Boy McKenna's resignation ASAP. Tell me is Franky Boy entitled to severance pay like his fellow Malawyer ritime buddy Dingwall is? Whereas the liberals Wayne Easter and Landslide Annie refused to protect my dumb arse over the years in their capacity as Solicitor General/Minister of Public Safety.

Just like the Lord Conrad Black versus FitzGerald matter in Chicago everybody is trying to play dumb and it was to funny that Peter C. Newman apologized after I sent his lawyers some of my stuff..
    Tell me something honestly if any you can find it in your soul to do so. Do you really think that the Conservatives thought that I didn't notice that Mulroney's right hand man Dereck Burney set up your Cabinet or that Michael Fortier was not a partner in his law firm?

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

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


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

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

    David,

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

    Lets get this straight Chucky so there is no misunderstanding. You only allowed my words to stand this time around because other people read them and asked you to? Hmmm some ethics EH?

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    But if you could explain point by point what the grievances are against these people, then people may understand. Perhaps you don't care and just want to let off steam, that's fine too, that's what blogs are for. However, many people would like to know what you are suing these people for?

    Good day to ye with no name. thanks for the question. Methinks by your questions you must be Vaughn.I stated the reason for my first lawsuit clearly live on CTV news to that Murphy character at suppertime just before I was allowed to debate Andy Scot in Oromocto.
    My first lawsuit will be to seek relief for the offense against my rights under the Charter because I was falsely imprisoned without being charged, held without bail and it was all done without even being read my rights. Then I was denied my right to a trial after met the Canadian Consulate in jailand came screaming out. I had tried to remove the matter to the proper jurisdiction and venue in order to prove the malicious prosecution to no avail. the bastarsds in the USA will never give a jury of my peers and Federal Court in Canada does not employ a jury. Thus I must make my issues well known locally before I file so that the Judges will not dismiss my complaints so easily as they have done in the past. Give me a call if you are not Vaughn and I will meet you show you the evidence.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    "Welcome to New Brunswick?" Jeez I was born and raised here i have lived here for over forty years of my life. I am older than Chucky and lived just down the road from where he was brought up in Dorchester NB. I went to High School and UNB in Fredericton when most of the snots that are screwing us did. Why do you think I am so pissed off? You don't think I know the score. If someone claims that I am a Yankee again I think I may hunt them down. If because a man lives somewhere else for awhile makes him a man of that place then how come a Newfy is always a Newfy everywhere he goes.
    Here is a God's moment for Chucky:

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

I am still human don't you know. Fredericton does not have the only courts in this old World. I except them crooked judges here to try hard to dismiss my matters.

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

            Do ya think the building will go beside Brian Mulroney Hall? UNB will have an interesting cluster of buildings named after many crooked old dead farts from the past that worked hard  to screw up the futire of our grandchildren. EH Chucky?
          Tis a shame that their history books will never tell our kids the simple truths we know today. They say history is written by the winners. But I wonder what will happen when they start digging up the CDs that I have stashed about the countyside. They do tell an interesting story and truth is stranger than fiction. EH? Have you figured out what I am up to yet Chucky? A couple of people have.

           To explain this a little to the newsmen that get this next. Please notice that Brian Mulroney's buddies buried their heads in the sand and had shown me their arse once I had busted their boss in front of his friends.  Meanwhile all the fellas under Bell Canada's wing are all still playing dumb, even though everybody knows Obama is scum. Just like his adversaries, Mulroney's chums. To top it all off Frontline knows absolutely every goddamned thing since the time I was running for Parliament. I am not smart enough to make this up and it is too funny not to share. But first I must give it to the French fellas at Quebecor byway of Bill Gates because that is the kind of guy that I am. Somebody has to make Mulroney pay for his sins. :)

    Brian Mulroney
    c/o Luc Lavoie
    Executive Vice President, Corporate Affairs
    Quebecor Media Inc.
    (514) 380-1974
    (514) 236-8742 (cell)


    Hey,
       I just called Luc Lavoie's office and left a message but not my phone
    number. From now on I want hard copy. Lets just say Mulroney should have
    done the Right and Honourable thing a long time ago, particularly as soon as
    I notified the lawyers working at Cendant Corporation. I served them once in
    person and once by confiremd US Mail. Maybe Belinda should have had him call
    me when I contacted her. I know I am the reason he did not speak at the
    Conservative leadership convention. I also know Mulroney, Arthur Hamiliton
    and John Crosbie were likely some the lawyers who advised Harper to shut up
    about what he knew about the Arar Commission.
         I had a great laugh to see the spit and chew between Senator Kerry and
    Mulroney but I also know that Mulroney is the reason that Forbes and Sun
    Media has not reported my doings with the SEC in the USA or even my of run
    for Parliament. Ain't it funny how everyone said Fundy was a riding to watch
    but no one whispered my name.  I know  I do not have to be redundant and
    send the same documents and wiretap tape to you that I sent to Mulroney and
    his many associates long ago before I complain of all the various companies
    and lawyesr he is in bed with. Title 18 in the USA will make all the lawyers
    fall on their own sword. Hell even you guys claim the merits of the internet
    and email is just as efective as the US Mail in the litigation process. Ask
    Frank Quatronne or Martha Stewart about that before you disagree. Bill
    Gates' lawyer offered no comment so I sent that bastard US Mail just to rub
    it in. IF you think I am pissed off you are right. Brian Mulroney could have
    easily stopped the distruction of my Clan's beloved Beach House but he would
    rather have stood with his corrupt friends than me. Or is it simpler than
    that? Did Mulroney just want his peice of the action in the fraudulent Real
    Estate transaction by Coldwell Bankers because he thought I had no hope of
    stopping it myself? We all know how Mulroney loves money. Airplane deals
    proved that.
          What say you J. Serge Sasseville do you stand with your boss and his
    peers or me? I know Lavoie will hang with Mulroney until the bitter end. 
    Perhaps you may wish to confer with Martine Turcotte or Robert C. Pozen,
    they have just received the most recent hard copy of material. Proof of my
    contact with Mulroney can be found within the stuff if perchance he tries to
    call me a liar. There is still time for you three folks to act in a ethical
    manner and uphold the law according to the Rules of Professional Conduct.
    After Sept 3rd your are too late. that is the day Massachusetts Trail Court
    tries to call me a criminal and I demand a jury of my peers.
          This is not an offer to settle before I file my complaints. That came
    along ago to Mulroney and his buddies. Now I look forward to arguing the
    bastard or any lawyer he chooses to send against me. I had offered to settle
    with BCE before I complained of them but the deal was off the instant they
    tried to puill a fast one in an effort to delay me in the hope no doubt that
    some bad acting Yankee might put a stop to me when I return to the USA.
    Their silence since has spoken volumes. Martine should have contacted me the
    instant ATV got the hard copy like i told her they would. I will forward you
    some of our email exhange so that we may all get to know each other quite
    well. these emails will be forwarded to many others but I ain't telling you
    who. My next emails come byway of Yahoo as a double check in case you choose
    to block me.
         Say hey to Mulroney for me and I will try to say hey to Kerry for you.
    Maybe Ms. Turcotte will share with you what she knows about Kerry and
    Mulroney will tell her what he knows about William Cohen and why he quit
    Cendant Corp so fast. Maybe Joe Day will tell you about Barack Obama and me.
    I am about to tell Obama about Day. Turn about is fair play. Obama used my
    stuff against Senators Edwards and Kerry to become a big wig in Beantown
    last month. I can use a Senator from Canada to take the wind out of his
    sails the following month. An Alliance dude once called Sun Media a bunch of
    scumbags. I would have to agree and laugh because it was a case of the pot
    calling the kettle black.

           What are you trying to do sucker me? I am telling my own tale in court. I am suing your company, Bell Canada. Get it?  
       May I suggest that you talk to your own lawyer, Martine Turcotte and decide what planet you all come from. I just got out of a jail after being put there by the bastards your lawyers assisted to cover up the crimes practiced against me. Discuss my troubles with Robert C, Pozen or Martine Turcotte not me. 
           If you or any of your company wish to communicate with me, address your concerns to my attorney, Joyce Richardson. Turcotte should have her number.
             If Sunlife ain't figured it out yet as to why I am about to sue them. They had best check with Jeff Carp about the stuff I sent him at MFS and his prior association with Hale and Dorr. Jeff Rudman would be good fella to start with but defintely not the last within the aforesaid law firm.

    Martine
         I will send the material as you requested and I will send some forwards of emails sent to others about these matters. The files contained here are older. Much has happened since I came home and ran for Parliament. I will return to the USA to begin litigation as soon as the Canadian authorities assure me that I will not be harassed by the DHS in the USA.    
         I have unlocked the files for you. This wicked stuff. Trust me I am not smart enough to make this up and just dumb enough not to quit defending our rights and interests. Feel free to ask me anything you wish in order to stress test my ethics to the max.
         I will settle with your company very cheaply if you simply tell the truth to the Arar Commission and the Media interests that your company controls do the same for the public benefit. The same holds true for Mr. Pozen in America. All he has to do is go to Norfolk Superior Court and start reading what is left of the dockets and then act ethically immediately. Tell him to say hey to Francis Galvin, Charles J. Kickham Jr. and J. Owen Todd for me.

    Subject: My turn to tell a tale.

    I think is time to let a little something out of the bag for the benefit of a few Maritimers who think they know something about the Media.I did notify CBC, the Rogers crowd and Harry Steele's folks that I knew a little bit about the Media and that I had written a book about it. Problem is I need an editor and I believe I may have found one.He comes in the form of a disenchanted newspaper man. But the thing is I want to put it on the web for all to read for free so there is no money in it for him. So I guess I wiil sue some big company with a Prima Facia complaint and settle for a lesser amount out of court. Lets just say I am looking hard at you dudes. I had zeroed in on the Yankee media long ago and I am certain folks within the Ottawa Citizen and Democracy Watch had checked my work(Hey Duff say hey to Dan for me) I have crossed paths with many of Globemedia's people many times for many reasons and I can easily prove it. What I  haven't bothered to tell them that I knew the reason Gobal etc never mentioned me was Frank McKenna and the Irving influence because basically that was a no brainer anyway. However If Globemedia and all their cohorts didn't think I knew about the influence Robert Pozen in Boston, you had best think again. then give Mr. Spitzer, Mr. Galvin, Mr. Shelby and Mr. Donaldson a call and drop my name along with Mr. Nesters and Mr. Koski's and tell them my stuff is off to the Arar Commission I am heading back to the USA to call Mr. Pozen and many folks he calls friends to court. Perhaps in Ottawa Bill Rowe will truly speak for the common man after all if the worm turns on his buddies. How do you people sleep at night? What say you? Why not get honest with the world and I will settle cheap? I will give one of your lawyers something real soon before I serve Mr. Pozen his just due byway of this lawyer Jeffrey N Carp MFS Investment Management
    500 Boylston Street Boston MA 02116-3741 617-954-5747 Perhaps he should call Putnam investments or the Brookline Savings bank and say hey to Mr Chapman and Mr Tripp for me. I just called Bob Pozen at 617 954-5707 and introduced myself so that he can never say that he never heard my name.

    MFS set to agree to second settlement

    Sun Life Financial Inc.'s Boston-based mutual fund arm will agree to a $50-million (U.S.) settlement today with U.S. regulators over allegations the firm directed trading commissions to brokerages in exchange for preferential treatment, according to people familiar with the matter.
    Sources said Massachusetts Financial Services Co. will announce a deal with the Securities and Exchange Commission this morning that will also include "compliance reforms," in addition to a token $1 disgorgement penalty.
    Eric Morse, a spokesman for MFS, declined to comment. A spokesman for the SEC refused to discuss any talks with the firm.
    The embattled fund company is hoping this settlement will enable it to move beyond the intense public and regulatory scrutiny it has endured in the past several months.
    In early February, MFS agreed to a $350-million settlement with the SEC and New York State Attorney-General Eliot Spitzer for allegedly permitting improper trades in some of its bigger funds. That figure included $225-million in penalties and restitution to investors, along with $125-million in fee reductions spread out over the next five years.
    The fallout within MFS, which manages about $140-billion in assets, was also considerable. Its two highest-ranking officials -- chief executive officer John Ballen and president Kevin Parke -- were each fined and slapped with temporary suspensions by the SEC, leading to their departures from the firm. Long-serving chairman Jeffrey Shames also retired in the aftermath of MFS's problems, and was replaced by Robert Pozen, formerly a senior executive at Fidelity Investments and onetime associate general counsel at the SEC.
    Mr. Pozen has been charged with cleaning up the mess, and tightening the firm's internal controls.
    He has already hired new legal and compliance officers, added monitoring staff, and imposed a ban on so-called "soft dollar" transactions. The firm also prohibited the practice of directing trading fees to brokerages in exchange for being placed on a preferred list of customers and receiving better visibility for its funds.
    This latter arrangement, known in industry circles as "pay for play," is at the centre of MFS's pending settlement with the SEC. Sources said the current settlement talks advanced fairly quickly because of the voluntary compliance improvements MFS has undertaken.
    In a recent interview with The Globe and Mail, Mr. Pozen attacked the basis of the regulator's case as "very weak" and said it should have raised this as a problem when it conducted audits of the company.
    Nevertheless, he said he hoped to settle the matter quickly, in large part to avoid a costly legal battle and prevent nervous investors from pulling their money out of MFS funds. So far, the damage has been contained to one major client, the Illinois Teachers Retirement System, which fired MFS last month as lead manager on a $664-million portfolio.
    The SEC is investigating about a dozen other fund companies for directed brokerage, although sources say MFS will settle individually, rather than as part of a group.
    Last fall, brokerage powerhouse Morgan Stanley agreed to pay $50-million to settle charges it failed to tell investors it was promoting funds with which the firm had a special arrangement. Morgan Stanley had a "Partners Program" of 14 funds, including MFS, that paid "substantial" fees in return for the brokerage steering their funds to investors, the SEC claimed.
    The regulator indicated a few months ago it would begin investigating a number of fund companies for directing commissions, but did not say which firms it would target.
    Sun Life revealed in a filing that MFS was under investigation for this practice just a couple of weeks after its first settlement with the SEC and Mr. Spitzer. The news came as a surprise to most observers, some of whom criticized the insurer's CEO, Donald Stewart, for not disclosing this probe earlier.
    MFS is hoping to recoup some of the $175-million it must repay investors under the terms of the first settlement by suing firms and individuals that engaged in market timing and late trading of its funds. Market timing involves making frequent trades in and out of funds in order to cash in on minor pricing discrepancies. It is not illegal, but is usually prohibited by many fund companies, since the quick trading can raise administrative costs and undermine returns to investors.

    I am a Canadian Citizen who thus far, as a plaintiff, has two Lawsuits in the US District Court of Massachucetts they are numbered 02-11686- RGS and 02-11687-RGS. They were removed to that Court from the Norfolk Superior Court by the US Attorney Michael J. Sullivan very improperly. However they shall remain there because of my status as a Canandian Citizen. Judge Sterns has not even held a Conference about the matters because he likely does not want to hear the matter because I have presented all Members of the Bar with their worst fear of a catch 22 problem. Accordinging to law he is late. I have complained of 47 defendants 34 of whom are State Defendants( the Attorney General, The Commission of Judicial Conduct Board of Bar Overseers etc) and 3 are Federal Treasury Agents. Some of the defendants are over two months late in their answer to the Summons. The smallest suit amounts to 188 million dollars in the form of relief. There is a lot to these matters and too much to briefly explain. But in a nutshell my wife's Aunt, who is buried beside Rose Kennedy, left my wife some money. It was stolen by her relatives in executing the estate. No news there. But the crooks are very well connected politically and every part of the old crony network in Boston covered for them. The crook and our cousin, Charles J. Kickham Jr of the Kickham Law Office on Beacon St, has been past President of Bar Associations. He has sat on the Board of Governors of Harvard Law School etc. I have given much information to many members of the press who have simply ignored some interesting facts. What should be somewhat newsworthy is how far a wild colonial boy has come in prosecuting Pro Se the most profund Yankee carpetbaggers. My next two lawsuits Under title 18 are wickedly righteous. I have left one copy of much information in Saint John New Brunswick at a lawyer's Office, Mosher and Chedore 33 Charlotte St if some one wishes to view them. I can be reached at this Cell number 506 434- 1379

    Canadian Media Deregulation Provides Insight Into FCC Proposal

    Critics of consolidation say the integrity of the news is being undermined by the effects of concentrated ownership

     
    Editor's Note:  This story has been updated to correct inaccuracies. Please see the corrected version here. 
    The original version of this story (see below) posted on May 29, 2003 incorrectly stated that Canada's two national newspapers, The Globe and Mail and the National Post, recently laid off their online editorial staffs. According to globeandmail.com editor Angus Frame, there have been no recent editorial layoffs at globeandmail.com; the site's 18-person staff continues to write and edit stories that are published exclusively online. The National Post did not have dedicated online editorial staff, and did not have online editorial layoffs.  The story also failed to acknowledge that the country's largest newspaper, the Toronto Star, also has a significant online operation.
    The Federal Communications Commission is poised to unveil new media ownership rules June 2 that some experts believe may change the face of American journalism.
    The new rules would allow media companies to own television stations and newspapers in the same cities.
    The FCC barred companies from owning newspapers and TV stations in the same market in 1975, but big media owners like the Tribune Co., Knight Ridder, MediaNews Group and the New York Times say it's time to lift that ban.
    They argue that cross-ownership makes for better journalism: Staffers working for companies that own newspapers and TV stations in the same market can work together to create richer, multimedia news reports that can then run in the company's paper and on their stations and Web sites.
    Advocates say the synergies of convergence lead to cost savings, increased advertising revenues and greater efficiencies.
    Cross-ownership already exists in some markets: The FCC granted about 40 exemptions to the cross-ownership rule in cases where a company already had television or radio stations and a newspaper in a single city. The FCC also granted exemptions in larger markets after media mergers produced cross-ownership situations.
    'The concentration of ownership in a lot of major Canadian cities is of interest for a lot reasons, but mainly because it provides too much news coming through one pipeline.'
    --Russ Mills, former publisher of the Ottawa Citizen
    The Tribune Co., for example, owns television stations and newspapers in Los Angeles, Chicago, New York and Miami.
    How further media consolidation and convergence would play out if the FCC does lift the ban on cross-ownership has been the subject of hot debate in the weeks leading up to the commission's June 2 vote.
    Experts familiar with the rapid consolidation of media in Canada say the U.S. should look northward for some lessons on what loosening cross-ownership restrictions could mean to journalism in the U.S.
    In Canada, the deregulation of cross-media ownership occurred gradually over the last 20 years. Within the past eight years, it has led to massive consolidation of media companies.
    Most of Canada's news media -- including newspapers and broadcast stations in all of its major cities -- are in the hands of two media giants: CanWest Global Communications Inc., and Bell Globemedia -- a division of the country's largest telephone company, Bell Canada.
    The rapid media consolidation in Canada has inspired an often-acrimonious debate over whether Canadian journalists are able to report objectively on social and political issues and whether the country's corporate media has allowed business interests to undermine the role of journalism in a modern democracy.
    "Based on the experience in Canada, dropping restrictions on cross-ownership certainly hasn't worked out well," said Russ Mills, former publisher of the Ottawa Citizen in Canada's capital city, who was fired by CanWest in a fight over editorial independence.
    "The concentration of ownership in a lot of major Canadian cities is of interest for a lot of reasons, but mainly because it provides too much news coming through one pipeline," he said. "When companies use ownership to control the news, and they do have the ability to do so, it hurts everyone."
    Though the two media conglomerates said cross-media consolidation would improve online journalism, many media observers say online journalism at local papers has gone downhill in the wake of consolidation.
    The country's two national newspapers, the National Post, half-owned by CanWest, and The Globe and Mail, owned by Bell Canada's media wing, Globemedia, have laid off the online reporters and editors at the two papers that once produced copy separate from print editions.
    The two papers, former online staffers said, were the only ones in Canada that were doing something other than simply repurposing content from newspaper pages into newspaper Web sites.
    Executives at Bell Globemedia and CanWest have defended the cutbacks, saying they were a result of cost-cutting efforts and consolidations undertaken after spending billions of dollars to acquire newspaper and broadcasting properties.
     
    Consolidation accelerated in 1990s
    Canada's restrictions on cross-media ownership were carved largely from regulatory decisions on broadcasting licenses made since the 1950s by the Canadian Radio-Television Commission -- Canada's version of the FCC.
    By the mid-1980s, Canadian media experts say, exceptions to cross-media ownership rules had eroded the cross-ownership ban to the point that it was unenforcable and largely ignored.
    By the mid-1990s, consolidation of Canadian media companies had accelerated on the strength of dot.com economics. And in 2000, CanWest, the second largest broadcaster in the country, announced a $3.5-billion deal to purchase a majority of the nation's newspapers -- including papers in the nation's 12 largest cities.
    Within weeks, Jean Monty, Bell Canada's CEO at the time, announced that Canada's largest phone company had set its sights on owning both content and the multimedia pipelines into consumers' homes.
    The decision prompted Bell Globemedia to purchase the Globe and Mail and the nation's largest TV network, CTV, in 2001.
    Despite the rising consolidation of media outlets, the massive purchases of newspapers by CanWest Global and Bell Globemedia took many Canadian journalists and media-watchers by surprise.
    CanWest and Bell executives convinced Canada's CRTC that convergence was necessary to attract advertising revenue and reduce costs if newspapers in many Canadian communities were to survive. And they promised that resources from new revenues would be devoted to improving the quality and reach of journalism through the Internet.
    When questions about convergence arose during CRTC hearings on both companies' broadcast licenses shortly after their newspaper purchases, they promised regulators that they would separate management of news-gathering operations by their television stations and newspapers.
    Officials from the Canada National Newspaper Guild complained that keeping management separate would not prevent companies from forcing journalists to perform work for both newspapers and television, to the detriment of journalistic independence.
    Critics -- including journalism professors, journalists, newspaper and broadcast union officials, and some government officials -- have argued that the quality of journalism has gone down, not up, as a result of convergence.
    Joyce Smith, an assistant professor at Canada's Ryerson University, teaches online journalism and worked on the online staff at the Globe and Mail before those employees were laid off last year.
    She said the one opportunity to see convergence succeed might have been missed by Bell Globemedia in its efforts to cut costs to recoup some of what it spent on media acquisitions.
    "What I found interesting was that the actual idea of convergence wasn't a hit with people working with just the newspaper or just television," Smith said. "Where it really happened was with the online news team. There were things the TV folks could clearly do much better with the online newspaper. By pooling resources, it all did work much better.
    "But in the tradition of journalism," she said, "reporters were asking, 'What does this mean for me? Does it mean that I have to file stories to the Web and then do stand-ups in newsroom, while doing my piece for the deadline at the end of the day?'
    "Basically, (owners) wanted reporters to be one-man bands," Smith said. "That has been played and replayed here. It made sense from a business model, but journalists, especially those who have been around for a while, went into newspapers and TV for a reason. Some are great at doing both, but not everyone has the same aptitude. And no one has the time in the day to do it all. Some of the expectations were outrageous."
    Canada reexamining changes
    While U.S. media critics and media executives have been testifying over the past few weeks in Senate hearings on the proposed changes in the FCC's media ownership rules, Canada is busy reexamining what has come of its own cross-media consolidations.
    Two inquiries are underway by Canadian government officials to explore the impact of cross-media ownership and consolidation on journalistic integrity and media responsibility.
    The Canadian Senate's Committee on Transport and Communication began taking testimony at the end of April on those issues and is expected to report its findings within the next year.
    A House of Commons committee on Canadian heritage is expected to release an 800-page report next month on its own yearlong investigation into the impact  of media concentration and political efforts by corporations to ease restrictions on foreign ownership of Canadian media.
    But media-watchers, who have a ringside seat on Canada's great media debate, say they are doubtful that government investigations will produce any new regulation on media conglomerates.
    "The horse is out of the barn," said Arnold Amber, director of the National Newspaper Guild of Canada. "But the good news is that this has at least inspired a vigorous national debate on press freedom and responsibility."
    Amber and other critics of media convergence said promises of more stories and better information from combining print and broadcast news staffs have largely failed in Canada.
    "Bell Globemedia is talking about restructuring and selling off its media wing," Amber said. "The failure of convergence to bring in revenues was primarily responsible for the resignation of Bell Canada's CEO, Jean Monty," who stepped down in April 2002.
    Geoffrey Elliot, vice-president of corporate affairs for CanWest, said that convergence has not led to revenues, or the reduced costs, the company had hoped for.
    But Elliot, and other supporters of cross-media ownership, argues that all sides have benefited from consolidation.
    "We are a family-owned business that saw an opportunity in which the whole was greater than the sum of the parts," Elliot said. "We saw substantial potential synergies on the sales side by putting television and newspaper assets together, since they both serve primarily advertising clients as sources of revenue, and serve a combination of local and national markets."
    Amber said the companies likely saw their primary financial advantages from a convergence of back-office technologies -- combining circulation, sales, printing and management operations.
    But it was something else that brought issues to a head in Canada over media consolidation and sharing newsroom resources: The loss of diversity of voices within the Canadian media took on new importance, observers say, after a series of events that led to accusations of censorship and political bias by CanWest's owners.
    In December 2001, CanWest -- which owns 11 major dailies and 22 smaller papers in Canada -- issued a directive to its newspaper editors that they would be expected to run three editorials per week that reflected the position of CanWest's owners on political or social issues.
    The decision was met with a spate of criticism -- especially when editors were told that other local editorials were not to contradict those from corporate headquarters.
    A byline strike ensued at the Montreal Gazette, and inquiries by the newspaper guild there led to findings that work by columnists and cartoonists was spiked when it conflicted with opinions from corporate headquarters.
    Several journalists quit; some staffers published a protest Web site.
    The furor finally boiled over into the public arena last June when Russ Mills, the publisher of the Ottawa Citizen, was fired by CanWest for running a series of stories and an editorial that outlined alleged political and financial irregularities in the administration of Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien.
    Elliot, the CanWest vice president, said the controversy arose because Mills failed to let CanWest's owners know in advance of the series or the editorial -- which called on Chretien, a friend of CanWest patriarch Israel Asper, to resign.
    Mills said he had not sought permission for either the investigative series, or the editorial, because he believed in preserving "editorial independence."
    The problem, Mills said, was that the new owners were trying to dictate local editorial policy from corporate headquarters.
    Elliot described the concern over attempts at a national editorial policy -- which has since been largely abandoned -- as a tempest without substance.
    He said CanWest's owners were "well within their rights to propose national editorials," and that their actions were no different that those of other newspaper ownership groups prior to media consolidation.
    "There has never been any effort to control what was published in news stories," he said.
    Since his firing, Mills has become an outspoken critic of media consolidation in Canada, and he testified in April before the Canadian Senate committee conducting media hearings. He was also awarded a Neiman Fellowship at Harvard University and is the incoming dean of the journalism program at Algonquin College in Ottawa.
    Meanwhile, Mills' firing prompted a public opinion poll by Canada's largest media union that found that the incident had caused the public to lose confidence in the media's editorial independence.
    The results, union officials said, showed that Canadians were concerned about press freedom and wanted the government to look into problems associated with media concentration.
    Peter Murdock, then vice-president of the communications union, told Canada Newswire that the poll "demonstrates that Canadians want their journalists protected from the whims and prejudice of media barons. It is a grim warning to media corporations and government that Canadians believe that the very integrity of the news that feeds our democracy is being undermined by the effects of concentrated media ownership."
    It is clear that online journalism at Canada's newspapers has changed dramatically under CanWest's corporate control.
    The company replaced independent newspaper Web sites with a common site, Canada.com, which allows consumers to access local news by clicking on the community they are interested in.
    Elliot said community news on the Web site comes from local newspapers and television stations, and said that consolidating that information on a single Web site provides consumers better access to local news across the country -- as well as reduces costs.
    Bruce MacCormack, former head of interactive media at CanWest, said supplementing newspaper and television content with a common Web site has made access to news more efficient and allowed the corporation to serve consumers better.
    "The consumers of online media ... were also television viewers and newspaper readers, and at different points in the day, different media were the best way to reach those people," MacCormack said.
    "Someone watching television in the evening could be told about stories being developed for the next day's newspaper, which is read on the commuter train as people go to work," he said. "Then, during working hours, the Internet was the most effective way to get them up to date on news, and tease them for television use at night."
    "These were handoff mechanisms that worked to reach people, so consumers and the public were able to access services in the most appropriate media, for whatever method they could best be served."
    CanWest recently filed testimony with the FCC to support the relaxation of cross-media regulations in the U.S. That testimony challenges media critics on their central objections to cross-media ownership.
    "Today's media market is the richest and most diverse in the history of modern media," the document says. "Cross-ownership has strengthened media companies and encouraged greater diversity and more sources of information.
    "Experience," it adds, "simply does not support the contention of some opponents of cross-media ownership, that consumers would have access to fewer point of view, or would see only repackaged versions of the same content across multimedia platforms."
    Smith, the Ryerson professor -- despite her criticisms of the handling of online media opportunities in Canada -- said she sees differences between media ownership consolidation in Canada and in the United States.
    "In the U.S., because of the size of the market, the chance of one or two owners gobbling up everything, I think, would be less than in Canada," she said. "But there is some caution in that.
    "If you are thinking about journalists, there are wonderful things about operating in a converged environment. It was really exciting thinking we could potentially have video, and it may be good for news consumers in the sense that (online video) will be a faster way of converging types of media.
    "But you get a lot of the same stuff. There is no alternative. You are going to lose some (editorial) voices in the process."

    The Texas Tribune is the only member-supported, digital-first, nonpartisan media organization that informs Texans — and engages with them — about public policy, politics, government and statewide issues.

    The Tribune was founded in 2009 by John Thornton (a venture capitalist in Austin for nearly 20 years and passionate believer in public media), Evan Smith (the veteran editor-in-chief of Texas Monthly and host of a weekly interview program on PBS stations), and Ross Ramsey (former owner and editor of Texas Weekly, the state’s premier newsletter on politics and government, now rebranded as The Blast).

    The Texas Tribune and its destination website were launched in November 2009, thanks to $4 million in private contributions as seed funding, a small band of talented computer programmers and some of the most accomplished journalists in the state.

    Location
    The Tribune is located at 919 Congress Avenue, The Sixth Floor, Austin, Texas 78701. Our main phone number is (512) 716-8600.

    News
    The Tribune, which has the largest statehouse news bureau in the United States, covers a full range of topics including public and higher education, health care, immigration, criminal justice, energy, poverty, the environment, water, transportation — pretty much every line in the state budget. We also cover the major candidates and campaigns for office, though we train our sights less on the candidates than the issues. To further our pursuit of statewide engagement, we provide all of our content, for free, to print, radio and television news organizations throughout the state, and nationally in partnership with The Washington Post.

    Data
    The Tribune has become an authoritative source for providing user-friendly databases of public information in Texas. Our reporters and software engineers collaborate to present a full picture for readers, giving them the tools to be more thoughtful, productive and engaged citizens.

    Events
    Each year we host 50-plus on-the-record, open-to-the-public live events— on college campuses, in community centers and everywhere in between — at which public officials, policy wonks and newsmakers answer for the work they’re doing and how they’re spending your tax dollars. Events are often available via livestream video, for those who can’t attend in person, and following the conversation we publish and archive video online. Our signature annual event, The Texas Tribune Festival, attracts thousands of attendees to downtown Austin to learn about Texas’ biggest challenges and to engage in thoughtful discussion about their respective solutions. Decision-makers, industry leaders and community activists from near and far come to take part in this three-day event.

    As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, The Texas Tribune is supported by individual contributions and membership (click here to join), major gifts, corporate sponsorships, events and foundation grants. A complete list of the Tribune donors and sponsors can be viewed here.

    Premiers cite long waits for cancer patients, N.B. teen's suicide in pitch for more federal health funding

    PM has promised more funding for provinces, but not right away

(Ryan Remiorz/The Canadian Press)

    Some Canadian premiers told stories of Canadians caught in personal health care crises today as they pressured the federal government to shoulder a larger share of health care costs.

    Québec Premier François Legault, chair of the Council of the Federation, was joined by seven other premiers this afternoon in a virtual conference to repeat the provinces' call for an increase in federal health care funding in the upcoming budget.

    The Canada Health Transfer is the federal government's primary contribution to covering the cost of delivering health services in the provinces and territories.

    Right now, the provinces spend about $188 billion on health care and the federal government covers $42 billion — roughly 22 per cent of total costs. The premiers have asked for a permanent increase in the federal share to 35 per cent cent, which works out to an additional $28 billion and would bring the total federal share to $70 billion.

    The premiers are asking the government to maintain this contribution level over time, with a minimum annual escalator of five per cent.

    "It's essential to do so for those who need treatments across the country," said Legault.

    "If the federal [government] doesn't increase the transfer, there's a risk provinces and territories won't be able to pay for all the services their populations need. At the end of the day, it's the most vulnerable who will suffer."

    Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister said long wait times are just one sign that the federal transfer urgently needs an injection of cash.

    He told a story about meeting a young woman who had to wait for a referral to a specialist after discovering a lump in her breast — only to be told by the specialist that they wished they had caught it sooner.

    'I don't need a banker'

    "That's the problem on the individual level that we're facing. We're losing people because of our failure to get health care to people sooner and we need to change that," Pallister said.

    "When I raised this story — a true story — with the prime minister, he looked across the table at me and said, 'I'm not your banker.'

    "I don't need a banker. We don't need a banker. Canadians don't need a banker. We need a partner. We need a partner on health care. This isn't the prime minister's fault, except that he ignores the problem and then it becomes his fault."

    The premiers held a virtual press conference today to warn Ottawa that health care transfers must be increased in this year's federal budget. They told reporters that all governments need to work together to reduce the wait times Canadians face in getting care. 2:44

    Ontario Premier Doug Ford pointed to issues in long term care exposed by the pandemic. New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs raised the case of a 16-year old girl in his province who recently killed herself.

    Lexi Daken's parents say she sought help but had to wait eight hours at a hospital emergency room without receiving any mental health intervention, and left the hospital with a referral for followup.

    The health transfer was the focus of a meeting between the premiers and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau late last year.

    At the time, Trudeau promised to increase health care funding to the provinces — but not before the immediate pressure of the pandemic subsides.

    "It's going to be important that the federal government steps up and increases its share of the cost of health care with the Canada Health Transfer," Trudeau said after the December meeting.

     "We are going to do that and I look forward to conversations over the coming months about how we can increase it."

     
     
     
     
     
     

    Retired psychiatrist wants to 'weep or scream' over care for mentally ill youth

    'There's no doubt that putting people in institutions is not a solution to the problem'

    About 10 years ago, Dr. David Addleman helped the provincial government develop recommendations to transform mental health services for young people in New Brunswick.

    Today, Addleman says, it takes all his skills not to "weep or scream" when he hears people talk about helping young people in New Brunswick deal with mental health problems.

    Despite the efforts of some people, there's still a lack of support for those trying to get better, he said.

    He said he thanked God when he heard a youth mental health centre now under construction in Campbellton was put on hold earlier this month. The decision came after the provincial ombud delivered a critical analysis of the Restigouche psychiatric hospital in Campbellton and recommended cancelling the youth centre. 

    "I was relieved for years when I saw a hole in the ground there, and then I was discouraged when I saw construction starting, and I'm glad that there's been some sober second thought being applied about that," Addleman said.

    "Certainly, there are needs for a way of evaluating and treating children and young people who are very difficult to manage in the community."

    Addleman and other doctors worked on a document 10 years ago, called "Out of the Shadows at Last: Transforming Mental Health, Mental Illness, and Addiction Services in Canada," to coax the provinces to take a look at their own systems.

    In response, Michael McKee, at the time a provincial court judge, was asked to come up with recommendations to transform mental health services in New Brunswick.

    Addleman said "some things" have been done since McKee's report, which included calls for more emphasis on early intervention, income support, and keeping people out of the legal system.  

    "I certainly would not say that it's just gathering dust not doing anything," Addleman said of the report in an interview with Information Morning Fredericton.

    "I think some really big efforts were made by very dedicated people at all levels, government and outside government."

    Institutions not a solution

    But Addleman said he was up late Wednesday night wondering why the system isn't working.

    "I think it may be simply a matter of quantity. That although the task is identified, the plan is identified, there's not enough people to do it."

    More psychiatrists won't necessarily fix the problem, Addleman said. He said the biggest problem is finding a supportive place for those suffering.

    "There's no doubt that putting people in institutions is not a solution to the problem."

    Suggests politics an issue

    Addleman said the best solution is training people to understand those who are suffering, with an ultimate goal of recovery.

    He said it's possible for New Brunswick to set up a system that provides community care and allows young people to recover.

    "What gets in the way? Why does it not happen? That's the questions I've been asking myself," he said.

    "And I think it's when it gets translated to the political sphere, when somebody has to make a decision on what's the priority going to be, how much money are we going to spend on this. That's where I think there's a breakdown."

    New mental health program aimed at helping people facing winter blues, pandemic anxiety

    Program connects people with mild to moderate mental health issues with coaches.

     
    CBC News· Posted: Jan 25, 2021 1:19 PM AT 



    People can be referred to the program by a medical professional, but they can also self-refer through CMHA. When they do they will be contacted by a program coach within five days who will help get them started on the road to better mental health. (Shutterstock)
     

    New Brunswick has introduced a new program aimed at helping people with mild to moderate anxiety and depression.

    The program, called BounceBack, will link people having mental health issues with experts who can help them.

    Christa Baldwin, the executive director of the Canadian Mental Health Association of New Brunswick, said the isolation and hardship caused by the pandemic is difficult enough. Combine that with everyday mental health issues, and this program is made all the more necessary.

    "We are 10 months into this pandemic and we are into our winter," said Baldwin. 

    "When we look at things like seasonal affective disorder and depression and all of those mental health concerns, that may be more exaggerated during this time of the year, this provides another tool for people in our province."

    People can be referred to the program by a medical professional, or they can self-refer through CMHA.

    They will be contacted by a program coach within five days, who will try to get them back on the road to better mental health.

    "We have ... over 20 different workbooks that deal with different topics," said Baldwin. 

    "The participants can design the program in collaboration with their coach to really make it very specific to what they are struggling with."

    Because of the pandemic, the coaching sessions are being done over the phone.

    More demand

    Baldwin said the program should help with a growing waiting list for mental health services, taking some people out of the queue, and enabling people with more severe mental health issues easier access to services.

    "This kind of program works with individuals that are mild to moderate depression," said Baldwin. 

    "They're not at that risk of suicide that people really should be having a different type of support through a psychiatrist or through the formal system."

    Baldwin said the COVID pandemic, along with a general greater focus on mental health, has changed the discussion about mental health.

    "it's not necessarily about having a mental illness diagnosis. It's really not finding true joy at this time. And this is a program that can help move you forward to find that joy and to see the good things that are happening in life."

    Baldwin said that search has more people coming to CMHA for help.

    "If I go back five years ago, we were working with about 25,000 New Brunswickers annually … last year, we provided support to over 86,000 New Brunswickers," said Baldwin. 

    "So people are reaching out more than ever before and that's just intensified during this pandemic."

    Sounds like a good idea. However, I have an acquaintance that has been waiting for a referral for almost nine months to see a specialist and still no luck. I hear a lot about what we should do especially in the Bell "Listen" campaign but I don't think services in New Brunswick are available in a reasonable amount of time. HAS ANYONE OUT THERE FOUND THIS TO BE THE CASE?

    Reply to @Greg Miller: Per the article, "the program should help with a growing waiting list for mental health services, taking some people out of the queue, and enabling people with more severe mental health issues easier access to services." Hopefully this will help your acquaintance! I wish them all the best.

    Mental health system should've been fixed after report 12 years ago, advocate says

    Mental health advocate Mike McKee made 80 recommendations to transform the system, but says it was never fixed

     
    CBC News· Posted: Mar 04, 2021 1:11 PM AT

    A retired judge who called for the "massive transformation" of New Brunswick's mental health system 12 years ago, says nothing has been done to fix it. 

    In 2009, Mike McKee published his report, Together into the Future. He received input from more than 2,000 people, including service providers to people with mental illness and their families.  

    The report included 80 recommendations to revamp the mental health system in New Brunswick

    "It's obvious the system is broken and we need to address it," said McKee. 

    "We have to decide, do we want to rebuild the house or do we just want to paint the living room?"

    McKee's report aimed to make mental health a government priority for everyone and that it would be treated like any other illness "rather than continuing to be a poor second cousin."

    'People want us to do more'

    McKee, who's also a former cabinet minister in Frank McKenna's Liberal government, said he was disappointed to learn about the death of Lexi Daken last week. 

    The Grade 10 student who had previously attempted suicide, was taken to the emergency room at Fredericton's Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital on Feb. 18, by a school guidance counsellor who was concerned about her mental health.

    She waited for eight hours without receiving any mental health intervention.

    Lexi took her own life less than a week later.

    "I don't remember really the last time my heart was troubled like this over someone that I didn't even know," said the mental health advocate.

    "It's sad and it doesn't have to happen."

    In order to fix the broken system, McKee said the province needs to stop reacting to situations like Lexi's and instead work with people living with mental health issues, Indigenous communities, the homeless and those living in rural areas.

     
    Sixteen-year-old Lexi Daken was a popular and gifted student who struggled with depression and anxiety. She tried to get help at the Chalmers Hospital emergency room. Barely a week later, Lexi was dead. 3:34

    "People want us to do more than just tinker with the status quo."

    If the 80 recommendations in his report had been implemented, McKee said the province would have already addressed the mental health needs of New Brunswickers. 

    But it didn't.

    McKee's report said children and youth should have access to in-province assessment, government departments should work collaboratively within a coordinated system and the province should also have a full range of effective services are available in community and correctional facilities.

    "I'm not happy with the outcome or reaction."

    Public inquiry won't happen

    On Wednesday, Health Minister Dorothy Shephard told reporters the province will not call for a public inquiry into Lexi's suicide but will ask the child and youth advocate to review mental health services in New Brunswick.

    McKee said he doesn't want to put his focus on whether their should be a public inquiry, but the report itself and how to prevent situations like this from happening again — such as more qualified psychologists inside New Brunswick schools. 


     The New Brunswick government is not calling for a public inquiry into Lexi Daken’s suicide but will ask the child and youth advocate to review mental health services. 1:35

    "We have far too many people who don't have the support, who don't have the treatment to avoid those situations occurring in the first place."

    It's still not clear whether the public will ever know what happened during Lexi's eight-hour wait at the ER, or why she was allowed to leave without having received help.

    McKee said it's possible they'll never know.

    "People aren't going to put up with this," he said. "Enough is enough."

    Robert McKee to run for the Liberals in Moncton Centre
    Lawyer won Saturday's nomination by acclamation, a spokesperson for
    the party says
    CBC News · Posted: Jun 03, 2018 4:50 PM AT

    Robert McKee, a 32-year-old lawyer and first-term Moncton city
    councillor, declared his candidacy for the Moncton Centre Liberal
    nomination on May 17. (Submitted)

    Robert McKee has won the Moncton Centre Liberal nomination and will
    run for the party in the upcoming provincial election this fall.

    The 32-year-old lawyer was elected to Moncton city council in May,
    2016, representing Ward 3, and declared his candidacy for the Moncton
    Centre Liberal nomination on May 17.

    He won Saturday's nomination by acclamation, according to Duncan
    Gallant, a spokesperson for the party.

    The availability to run in Moncton Centre for the Liberals opened up
    after Speaker Chris Collins said he wouldn't reoffer for the party.

        Speaker Chris Collins won't reoffer for Liberals, plans to sue
    premier for libel
        8 Liberals quit over premier's 'humiliating' treatment of Chris Collins

    Premier Brian Gallant suspended Collins from the Liberal caucus on the
    basis of allegations of harassment made by a former employee of the
    legislature.

    Collins described Premier Gallant's handling of the allegations as
    "atrocious" and will finish his term as an independent.

    ​The election is scheduled for Sept. 24.

    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.

    STATEMENT OF CLAIM

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

    New Brunswickers will be consulted on mental health strategy

    FREDERICTON (CNB) - New Brunswickers will be involved in developing a provincial mental health strategy during consultations to be held around the province, Health Minister Michael Murphy announced today.

    "A new provincial strategy will transform mental health services so we can better meet the needs of patients and enable all our residents to contribute to and benefit from a self-sufficient New Brunswick," Murphy said.

    The development of a mental health strategy is a key initiative in the provincial health plan unveiled by Murphy in April. The plan calls for a review of current mental health services in order to examine strengths and gaps.

    Murphy said that a task force headed by provincial court judge Michael McKee will be charged with carrying out public consultations around the province. Those consultations are planned for the fall.

    First, an issues and options paper will be developed based on an analysis of existing documentation and input from key stakeholders. Among the documents to be reviewed will be Out of the Shadows at Last, a report on mental illness released last year, written by Senator Michael Kirby, and Connecting the Dots, a report on youth-at-risk and youth with complex needs, released this year by ombudsman Bernard Richard.

    The issues and options paper will help foster discussions during a series of kitchen-table sessions that McKee will have during the summer with stakeholders representing mental health professionals, consumer organizations, families and other interested parties.

    A mental health forum dealing with topics addressed by expert thinkers in mental health will be held in October. Potential topics include promotion and prevention; contributions of consumers and families; criminalization of the mentally ill; barriers to education and employment; and the mental health of children and youth.

    The final phase will be regional consultations with stakeholders, to take place in November and December.

    Murphy said that New Brunswickers will also be able to submit their ideas via a web-based consultation. That process will be established once the issues and options paper is released.

    A final report is to be delivered to the minister of health by February 2009.

    Murphy said that New Brunswick has a history of innovation in providing mental health services, including the establishment of community mental health centres and the mental health court for individuals who come into conflict with the law as a result of mental illness or intellectual disability.

    "Our history is one of providing mental health services in the least restrictive fashion and within the community when at all possible," Murphy said. "Through the development of a provincial mental health strategy, we'll build on this history of putting the needs of patients first."

    Order of Moncton - Judge Michael McKee

    Judge Michael McKee

    No matter where his career has taken retired Judge Michael McKee over the years, community service and support of those in need, has always been front and centre.

    Ordained into the priesthood in 1966, Mr. McKee served with St. Augustine’s Parish in Moncton. Several years later, he became a prison chaplain at the Federal Penitentiary in Dorchester, where he earned the reputation as an empathetic and trusted counsellor. It was also in this role that he saw firsthand, the impact that mental health can have on the wellbeing of a community.

    With an eye to making a difference, Mr. McKee turned to politics, and in 1974, was elected to represent the riding of Moncton North in the New Brunswick Legislature, which he did until 1992. During his time in government, he was known for being an approachable politician who not only took seriously the concerns of the community, but was committed to progress.

    Also while serving in the Legislature, he completed a Bachelor of Laws degree at the University of New Brunswick. Then, when his party formed the government in 1987, he went on to become Minister of Labour and Multiculturalism. In this role, he encouraged tolerance and respect for the province’s increasingly diverse communities, and also worked to build trust among employers and unions.

    In 1992, after serving 18 years as an MLA, Mr. McKee stepped down, as he was appointed to the bench as a Provincial Court Judge. During this time, he advocated for changes to the justice system, particularly in relation to mental health issues.

    In 2008, when the province established a Mental Health Commission to review the province’s services, it was no surprise that Judge McKee was appointed Chair. In this capacity, he spearheaded an insightful report that has helped to transform how mental health services are perceived and delivered in New Brunswick.

    In 2015, he retired from the Provincial Court, leaving behind a remarkable career that has always had community service at its core. Never one to say no to dedicating his time to worthwhile causes, he’s been actively involved with numerous boards, committees and community groups.

    The Knights of Columbus, Moncton West Rotary Club, East End Boys’ and Girls’ Club and the Atlantic Wellness Community Centre, are just a few, over the years, that have benefitted from his participation.

    A lover of sport, he has also donated his time to the Moncton Minor Football Association and the Beausejour Curling Club, and has coached teams in hockey and baseball.

    With this lifelong commitment to service, Judge McKee has been honoured by dozens of organizations, including from St. Thomas University, the Canadian Paraplegic Association and the United Way.

    A proud New Brunswicker, he and his wife Winnie are parents to Sheila and Rob.

    Date: Sun, 30 Oct 2011 02:04:45 -0200

    Dear Officer Lang:  I received this email from Dawn Goff who has a
    sister-in-law, Cathy Goff, of works for CSIS and Cathy is married to
    Alan Goff who is a dentist now working for the Govt. in Ottawa
    (perhaps Indian affairs).  I reported last year that Dawn Goff told me
    she went to a telephone booth and called Cathy and Alan and Alan said
    she is (Dawn) is playing dangerous game with these doctors (meaning
    Dr. Ed Schollenberg, Dr. Donald Colfordrn; Dr. Oaei (sic) now deceased
    and he used to be Dawn's son's psychiatrist who Dawn had long sexual
    relationship with and Dawn told me that he said he would kill her if
    she told; then there was Mohammed (Cal) who was working at St. Josephs
    Hospital and now lives in Calgary.  Then Dawn met other Muslim doctors
    at places like Tim Horton's; some she says were set up for her to
    meet; some would rape her; she said she received no money; it was
    called dates.  When she called Cathy and Allan on the phone from the
    phone booth in St. John, she said she told Cathy Goff she was sending
    Cathy a diary and for Cathy to hang on to it; also Dawn said she put a
    copy in her safety deposit box.  Up until I complained last year, Dawn
    had a blog on the College's website, called something like "Dawn Tells
    The Truth (Dancing With the Devil).  It is still on Dr. Donald
    Colford's website.

    One day, Dr. Schollenberg's secretary, Clarice, told me she did not
    know that the website had anything on it from Dawn Goff because, she
    Clarice, was the only one who put things on that website.  It was
    taken off just a few months ago after I reported it.

    Then last summer, Dr. Schollenberg wrote a reference letter for Dawn
    Goff on College Letterhead as he knew Dawn wanted a job at St. John
    Regional Hospital; a place he knew that she had slept with several
    doctors.  Also, in or around 2003 Dawn was in Fredericton and had too
    much to drink at Sweetwaters; she called Donald Colford (Dr.) and he
    sent a Mohammed, a male prostitute who was going to St. Thomas U. and
    worked parttime at Multicultural Centre in Fred.  He told Dawn later
    that he knew Ed (Schollenberg).  Dr. Donald Colford is gay and I am
    unsure what Dr. Schollenberg's preference might be.  He bragged to me
    not to long ago that he and his family were visiting his daughter in
    Nova Scotia and happened upon a "gay pride parade."  I cannot imagine
    how someone would find that exciting.

    This Mohammed who picked Dawn up at Sweetwaters took her back to his
    place and raped her violently.  She went to ER in St. John Regional
    and reported same and asked for a test for HIV and she said she spoke
    to some guy who at that time was a social worker by the name of
    McIntyre.

    I also know that Dawn was responsible for reporting a Dr. Snow to the
    College about 15 years ago for sexual assault and Dr. Snow paid her
    off and retired.  She said Ed and Donald helped her to get legal
    advice.

    To my knowledge, Dr. Schollenberg has not had sexual relationship with
    Dawn, but she hints that he did something that may be connected to the
    diary.  What that is I do not know.

    However, something stinks here.  Dr. Ed Schollenberg knows Dawn's
    history of unspeakable sexual abuse as a little girl whose uncle put a
    whiskey bottle or wine bottle up her private parts, etc when she was 5
    or 7.  I believe she went to grade seven.  After she reported Dr.
    Snow, she got a job with the Govt. (Dept. of Fisheries).  She told me
    many stories of things that went on there.

    I hope she is not sending my email address to any of these Muslim
    doctors or whomever she knows.

    I am asking that this be investigated.

    Evelyn Greene

    H David.  Thank you for the email.  Do you mind if I sent it to my
    friend Sally who is going thru similar stuff as me?  I am not sure
    what to think of Charles LeBlanc.  Could you fill me in?  Youare going
    to get an earful in the near future.  Do you know that I tried to
    contact Barb Whitenect at Dept. of Health and the Minister of Health
    put a stop to the communication.  Mr. Zed in Sussex said there are
    people who want me locked up.  I have contacted Chief Commander of
    RCMP, Wayne Lang, and he will not look at the evidence I have that the
    police is covering up the CCTV video tape tampering when I got beaten
    up outside Ambulance N.B on May 13/11.

    What do you think of Charles Le Blance these days?

    Evelyn Greene  (see attached letter that I gave the Crown, the police
    and the CBC and Daily Gleaner and Wayne Lang of RCMP--No one wants to
    touch the video and I have copies that I took last Friday to head of
    NB Police Commission who would not take them)  Do you know someone in
    Ottawa or elsewhere who would look at the video tapes on CD that are
    evidence of crime?

    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.

    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.

    Threat against Burke taken seriously

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Is the threat from someone who was recently incarcerated?

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

    Reporters asked when the threat would be over.

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

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

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

    "They look at each and every situation."

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

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

    Feds institutionalize determined NB whistleblower
    DAVID AMOS PICKED UP BY THE R.C.M.P.???
    Charles LeBlanc's Other blog
    July 8th, 2008

    I don't know if this is a joke?

    I'm not a David Amos fan but this email was sent to me last week.

    I wonder what happen there???
    Full Article
    -----------------------------
    < ...>
    Charles, David Amos had been picked up by the RCMP, upon false
    accusations, and put into the Chalmers Hospital.

    This is a fate that is looming at the horizon for anybody who does not
    put up with the corruption in this country and especially in "the
    place to be". The dictators are running a tight ship, and they dont
    like it, when someone points out to them, that underneath that
    picturesque veneer is a big mess hidden.

    Yesterday it was me and many others, today it is David, and tomorrow
    it can be You, and me again. Lets put petty bickering aside, and speak
    out against the real foe. Short before the mighty sowjet empire
    crumbled and fell, they used the same tactics, putting opponents into
    loonybins, people who did not appreciate their benevolent rulership,
    must be something wrong with their head. Think about it.

    Please keep me updated to what is happening inthe pictureprovinces

    I like to make more comments, but it is to frustrating for me, a
    cyberspace dummy, to see to many labourosly written letters, getting
    lost in said realm

    I think the Guy is harmless. He May be off on another track somewhat
    but have seen worse like the sociopaths that work in Goverment and
    Police!

    Do You think the Cows could have conspired to do it?

    Why not call the number and find out Charles? You may not be a 'fan',
    but you two have a lot in common. There was a post at Spinks last
    night that could be him, it was posted anonymously, but he's the only
    guy who calls people 'boy'.

    You are always offering conspiracy stories about people out to get
    you, his actually make even more sense as he keeps evidence and talks
    about using the court system-even runs for parliament. By that token
    he's more 'dangerous' than you, and doesn't have a popular blog to
    keep him in the limelight enough to protect him.

    Call the Chalmers and ask to speak with him and see what happens...

    Let the media use their contact to find out if this is true?

    Not this blogger!!!!

    I was sent an email and I blogged the issue.

    My job is done!!!!

    The media is certainly not going to cover it, you are far better known
    and like you say, the media wouldn't cover your arrest at all.
    Fighting for people's rights is never 'done'. There are some people
    who did work for residential tenants acts and about YOUR ban.
    Ironically Mr. Amos' last blog was a link to www.charlesin
    thehouse.com asking why YOU got all the attention.

    I seem to recall lots of blogs with pictures about the clown who was
    banned, but maybe past posters are right, and its only people who are
    nice to you that get any attention. Let's just hope people don't have
    the same attitude if it does happen that YOU get arrested. Whether you
    like somebody or not is irrelevant.

    I don't know what Mr. Amos' story is and have never been able to
    follow it, but we certainly know from Charles' treatment and Bonnie
    O'dea's case that just about anything is possible.

    Listen Mike!!!

    You cannot communicate with David!!!

    It's an impossible task!!!!

    I email him for an interview and he sent my request to everyone on his list.

    What are his issues?

    I don't know!!!!

    Dan F tried to helped him and he turned against the guy.

    Understand? You cannot do a story on a guy if he or she don't answer.

    He sent me a picture and I blogged it. He quickly turned against me
    for using the picture.

    I deleted the blog and pic. Tout fini!!!
    Understand Mike?

    But you're right on one issue?

    The Government could quickly get rid of the guy and nobody will ever know?

    Scary eh?

    He could end up like an Ashley Smith?

    If he gets out? I'm sure we'll hear lots of story and I'm gonna get
    blasted for blogging his arrest.

    See Mike? You can't win for trying?

    Can't blame the media either.

    C'est la vie!!!

    Stay tuned!!

    "Mr. Amos' story is and have never been able to follow it"

    David Amos: NB-NWO whistleblower Part 4
    "When the Irving idiot Scotty Baby Agnew had the RCMP try to arrest me
    and have Google delete my blog about them and the nasty French Bastard
    Chucky Leblanc and then had Yahoo kill two of my email accounts, I
    laughed at them all and proved to the Irvings' lawyer and the MP Jim
    Prentice in a wink of an eye that I was far from done with them."

    "Dan F tried to helped him and he turned against the guy."

    Deservedly so - too many bloggers shoot their mouth off with nothing
    but ignorance or a corrupt agenda behind their words.

    The longer the mindless Canadian and American populace let the Stasi
    lapdogs of the fiat-debt thieves run rampant over our land, the more
    repressive action you'll see against independent media.

    At least everybody with a clue knows that Main $tream Media is fully
    co-opted, they'd print their newspapers with uranium-laced ink if
    their owners gave the command.


    At 8:39 AM, July 08, 2008 , mikel said...
    Charles, don't mean to be contrary but virtually everything you've
    said about him has been said numerous times HERE about YOU. On
    numerous issues people have posted saying 'you just can't reason with
    the guy'. I don't particularly like being called 'mikey boy' and was
    often a target of Mr. Amos' criticism myself.

    And like I said, if YOU were arrested there are lots who would say
    exactly the same thing as the above-'he needs help, I hope he gets it'
    and then move on.

    The issue is not the PERSON, in order to raise the ire of lawyers,
    police, etc., you HAVE to be a bit of a malcontent. Most of us would
    just cry in our coffee and try to move on. The only reason Mr. Amos
    (and you I dare say) continue to tilt at windmills is BECAUSE you are
    belligerent, somewhat cantankerous SOB's.

    I've heard Mr. Amos' called crazy, but then I've also heard YOU called
    crazy by a lot more people. We don't know the issue behind this,
    perhaps he IS crazy and maybe he was throwing rocks through people's
    windows.

    You SHOULD blame the media, how many people tell YOU that they don't
    blame the media for ignoring all your letters? It's not pleasant is
    it? All it takes is a phone call to the DECH or the police station.
    Can you honestly say that if you get hauled away you wouldn't want
    people to put at least SOME effort into helping you? Will people just
    be going over to Spinks blog and saying 'well, he didn't give a rats
    ass about David Amos so why should we care about him?' I seem to
    recall a lot of effort in talking to Bonnie O'dea-was it just because
    she was nice to you and Mr. Amos wasn't? What the hell is the point of
    all that buddhist bullshit you keep posting when you don't even seem
    to pay attention to it. Sorry guy, don't mean to be belligerent, but
    being a blogger sometimes means rising above pettiness. Otherwise, it
    makes perfect sense that Irving's press ignores you-after all, you
    haven't been very 'nice' to them (and have been even more cantakerous
    towards them than Mr. Amos has been to you).

    Charles can be annoying. Amos is crazy and hopefully he'll get the
    help he needs in hospital.


    At 11:05 AM, July 08, 2008 , just cruisin' through said...
    mikel, why don't YOU actually do something if you're so interested.
    Charles at least blogged it. What have YOU done?


    At 12:26 PM, July 08, 2008 , Anonymous said...
    It is simply NOT TRUE, as Mikel suggests, that a person can be
    commited to a mental health facility on the basis of a phone call to
    hospital or police. That may have been true in 1950, but not today! If
    Mr. Amos has been hospitalized, it's on the basis of reliable
    evidence.

    btw, I've had dealings with Mr. Amos. He very sincerely believes not
    only that all lawyers and all politicians and all cops and all civil
    servants are corrupt, but also that there is a massive conspiracy
    against him, involving all these people, and the CIA, which he belives
    is actively trying to kill him, and the media, and Charles, and many
    many many others. I'm just saying...

    Mike...Mike...Mike???

    Look what Dan F posted?

    He blames me for the deleting of his yahoo account.

    I wonder why?

    I just send his emails to my soam box. < Just like many people do with mine >

    If I had a chance to know his concerns?

    I would be behind him but I don't!

    I did the guy one favor?

    I blogged the issue so people would know he's been picked up by the R.C.M.P.!

    Will David Amos be grateful for what I did?

    Of course not!!!

    Anyone who tried to help the guy? He turns against them!!!!

    C'est la vie!!!

    But lets wait and see what's going to happen?

    The number is on the blog Mike. Call the guy who sent me the email.


    At 1:59 PM, July 08, 2008 , Charles LeBlanc said...
    One more thing Mike?

    If I'm ever picked up by the Police and sent to a mental ward?

    I assigned three people to watch over my situation very closely.

    In this line of business? You got to be prepare.

    Especially when you go against the Irvings, the government and the Police!!!!

    Everything is prepared!!!!

    At 12:30 AM, July 09, 2008 , Anonymous said...
    there are people in need of the mental health services and if you
    fight against or speak out,you may be given these services against
    your will! It is a tool for those in power to use against the poor and
    uneducated!


    At 5:10 PM, July 09, 2008 , Anonymous said...
    Let's see...Mr Amos truly believes politicians, civil servants and
    police are corrupt and out to harm or kill him. Hmmmmm...sounds like a
    blogger I know. If Amos was really picked up and taken to the psyc
    ward you hadbetter watch your back Charlie. You could be next. Be
    afraid...be very afraid.



    Charles LeBlanc said...
    I taught I did ya a favor by letting the people know you were picked up?

    Well. I guess not!!!

    That's no problem! I can delete the blog like nothing happen.

    You're welcome to write your views on what happen but bad language
    just won't do it!!!

    C'est la vie!!!

    Do you want me to POOF the blog?

    I got no problem with that!

    :P

    Now, I was the first guy to blog your issue.

    It started a good debate. < AS you can tell? >

    Now? Listen...You got it? Listen or I meant read!!!

    Why don't you go to the blog and explain what happen? < in a nice way! >

    But of course this would be too much to ask?

    Your friend sent me an email telling me you were arrested by the
    Police < or picked up? >

    I taught about it and blogged it!!!

    That was very nice of me but if you continue to attack me the way you do?

    Well, the next time you get picked up?

    I won't blogged it and nobody will know?

    You should tell your story or maybe we'll see ya in court and let the
    Irving's employees tell your story.

    It's up to you?

    P.S. I don't have to leave annoymous comments because I got enough already!!!

    Shephard stops short of calling public inquiry in wake of Fredericton teen's death

    Shephard says she'll ask child and youth advocate to conduct a review

     
    Marie Sutherland· CBC News· Posted: Mar 03, 2021 12:20 PM AT 



    Health Minister Dorothy Shephard repeated her contention that the mental health system in New Brunswick is broken. (Submitted by the Government of New Brunswick)

    Health Minister Dorothy Shephard says she will ask for a review of services for mental health crisis care in the province, telling reporters Wednesday she stands behind her pledge to "fix this broken system."

    At a news conference, Shephard directly addressed the suicide of Fredericton teen Lexi Daken last week. 

    Lexi, a Grade 10 student who had previously attempted suicide, was taken to the emergency room at Fredericton's Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital on Feb. 18, by a school guidance counsellor who was concerned about her mental health. 

    She  waited for eight hours without receiving any mental health intervention.  

    Lexi took her own life less than a week later, and her parents have spoken publicly about her experience trying to get help.

    But it's not clear whether the public will ever know what happened during Lexi's eight-hour wait at the ER, or why she was allowed to leave without having received help.


    The New Brunswick government is not calling for a public inquiry into Lexi Daken’s suicide but will ask the child and youth advocate to review mental health services. 1:35

    Although Shephard was asked several times whether she would call a public inquiry into the handling of suicidal youth in provincial emergency rooms, as has been urged by Green Party Leader David Coon and supported by Lexi's father, Chris Daken, she said a review is the preferred route.

    Shephard said she has met with New Brunswick's child and youth advocate, Norm Bossé, "to talk about a review of services for mental health crisis care."

    "We have the child and youth advocate and he has a legislative mandate to do this," she said. 

    Bossé's independent review would likely be made public in a report, but would not entail calling witnesses to publicly testify, as an inquiry would.

    Details of Horizon's internal review, announced last week by community vice-president Jean Daigle and intended to "determine where improvements could have been made," will also not be made public.

    The review will be shared with Lexi's family and with Horizon's board of directors, Shephard said.

    Shephard also announced Wednesday that she has asked Horizon Health Network senior officials "to discuss how we can address crisis care in our ERs" and has directed them to report back to her by the end of the month.

    She plans to do the same with Vitalité Health Network.

     
    Sixteen-year-old Lexi Daken was a popular and gifted student who struggled with depression and anxiety. She tried to get help at the Chalmers Hospital emergency room. Barely a week later, Lexi was dead. 3:34
     

    Review 'a first step,' Lexi's father says

    In an interview Wednesday afternoon, Lexi's father, Chris Daken, said he thinks a public inquiry is needed but that the review is "a good first step."

    Daken said his wife, Shawna Betts, had contacted Bosse's office after Lexi's death to request a review, so he was happy to hear it publicly announced Wednesday.

    But he said a public inquiry is still necessary.

    "We need answers, and the public needs answers, too," he said. "I think the province needs to see some change and the only way we're going to get it is getting to the bottom of why this happened."

    Daken said he will wait to see the results of the review they requested, noting "that will determine our next moves."

    "We're not going to change anything overnight, we know that," he said. "So we're happy with that first step. We do not think it's going to be the last step, but it's a good first step."

    Inquiry 'not the best approach,' former head of psychiatry says

    The former director of psychiatry at the Chalmers hospital said he understands why people might think an inquiry is needed, but it won't yield the answers people are hoping for.

    In an interview with Information Morning Fredericton, Dr. David Addleman said Lexi Daken's tragic experience is "a heartbreaking story."

    'You wonder what happened, how did it happen? It's terribly upsetting."

    However, Addleman said, an internal review would be much more likely to answer those questions.

    "I understand that that will not satisfy the public," he said. "Everybody's heartbroken, upset, angry … people want answers and want something done right now. But that's not the atmosphere in which useful determinants of what happened can be arrived at."

    The bottom line, he said, is that the most useful information results from reviews that are done internally, "where people feel they can express their thoughts and opinions openly without feeling … blame will be placed on them."

    Missed opportunity for 'bolder' action: Austin

    In an interview Wednesday, People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin said he was disappointed Shephard had not made a "bolder statement" about helping the province's youth.

    "I was hoping the minister would come out and say that no minor seeking help during a mental health crisis will be turned away without getting the professional care they need," Austin said. 

    Austin noted he has spoken with teachers and guidance counsellors who have told him it's "a roll of the dice" whether students will get the care they need when they are taken to emergency rooms in mental health distress.

    "That's just unacceptable," he said. 

    Austin also said that while he was pleased the child and youth advocate will conduct an independent review of the province's mental health care services, he thinks an inquiry should have been called in the wake of Lexi's death.

    "I think Mr. Bossé will do a thorough review and I commend that," he said.

    "But I think he would have done that anyway, without being asked by the minister. I think a public inquiry is important here ... this is something that the public as a whole needs to have more details about, to see what the issues are."

    In midst of grief, Lexi Daken's family sees a chance for change

    Fredericton teen's suicide put mental health on the front burner. Her family is determined to keep it there

    Chris Daken is taken aback by the outpouring of attention, support and condolences his family is receiving in the wake of unspeakable tragedy.

    Lexi Daken, daughter to Chris and Shawna Betts, sister to Piper, Brennah, Noah and Quinn, student at Leo Hayes High School, friend, athlete, teenager, took her own life last Wednesday. 

    She was just 16.

    A week earlier, Lexi had been taken to the emergency room at Fredericton's Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital by a guidance counsellor who was concerned about her mental health. 

    She waited for eight hours without receiving any mental health intervention.

    After she was told by a nurse that calling a psychiatrist would take another two hours, Lexi left the hospital with a referral for followup.  

    Since her death, Daken said, the family has been bowled over by the offers of support, from here in New Brunswick and right across the country.

    "Lexi's story has touched a lot of people in ways we would never have imagined," he said.

    'Lexi didn't get the help she went there for'

    On Tuesday, one day after Lexi's funeral service, Daken told CBC News his heart is aching but his mission is clear: to shine a spotlight on the broken system that allowed this to happen, and to never let it fade until things change.

    "It can't be acceptable that a person could go to the hospital and not get the care they need, that they be made to feel like a burden and pushed away," he said. 

    "Lexi didn't get the help she went there for, and I really believe the government has to take a good look in the mirror and … at the decisions that were made that day."

    That's part of the reason Daken said his family made a conscious choice to speak openly about the tragedy.

    "The day after her death, we started getting calls from media," he said. "We sat down as a family to decide whether we should ignore the publicity and deal with Lexi's death in our own way, or speak out about it to everyone."

    Ultimately, they decided that "keeping it in the dark" would only perpetuate the stigma around mental health issues.

    "This has happened too often," Daken said. "We can't let this go away. We want to keep the momentum going, and hopefully it leads to change."

    That can't happen if people aren't talking about it, he said.

    "We want kids to know there's help out there. We're hoping to make mental health an easier subject to talk about. … It's no problem for people to talk about having a broken bone, so why can't we talk about having a broken brain?"


    Green Leader David Coon said Tuesday he will push the government to call for a public inquiry in the wake of Lexi Daken's death, noting "I will be relentless about it." (CBC News file photo) 
     

    Family supports call for a public inquiry

    For this reason, the family also supports Green Party Leader David Coon's call for an inquiry into the province's handling of suicidal youths in emergency rooms.

    In an interview Tuesday morning, Coon said he plans to push the government to call a public inquiry into Lexi's death, noting "I will be relentless about this."

    "Too many teens in crisis have been turned back from emergency rooms without getting help, without getting admitted into a safe place where they won't be able to harm themselves," he said.

    "Something has to be done. We can't keep going with this broken system."

    Coon said he'd like to see "everyone along the chain" called as witnesses at the inquiry, from the psychiatrist and nurse on duty the day Lexi visited the hospital to the hospital management.

    Daken said he spoke with Coon about his plan at Lexi's vigil, and he supports it completely.

    "I think it's a good thing," he said. "The public is looking for answers just as we are."

    Daken sees a public inquiry as another crucial step on the road to real change.

    "What we have seen over and over again in the past, when a teen has taken their own life, there's a big outcry for a week or two, and then after a while it just quietly goes away," he said. "We don't want that to happen this time."

    The sheer number of individuals and groups who have contacted Daken and his family to offer help and support gives him hope that this time, it really will be different, he said.

    "We've had mental health associations reaching out from across the country, people here in the community organizing fundraisers, we've had [People's Alliance Leader] Kris Austin and the Liberals and Mr. Coon in touch with us," he said. "None of us wants to let this fade away.

    "So as tragic as Lexi's death is, we hope some good can come out it."

    Coon calls for public inquiry in wake of Fredericton teen's suicide

    Green Party leader says broken system has failed too many teens, plans 'relentless' push for inquiry

    Green Party Leader David Coon says the province's mental health system failed Lexi Daken and many New Brunswick teens before her. (CBC)

    Green Party Leader David Coon is calling for a public inquiry into the handling of suicidal youth in provincial emergency rooms after the death of 16-year-old Lexi Daken last week.

    In an interview on Information Morning Fredericton on Tuesday, Coon said the first thing he thought when he heard the news of Lexi's suicide was "How can this happen again?"

    It's plain the system is broken and it's past time the province stepped in to do something about it, Coon said.

    "Too many teens in crisis have been turned back from emergency rooms without getting help, without getting admitted into a safe place where they won't be able to harm themselves," he said.

    "The system failed Lexi, and it has failed other teens before her."

    Lexi, a Grade 10 student who had previously attempted suicide, was taken to the emergency room at Fredericton's Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital on Feb. 18, by a school guidance counsellor who was concerned about her mental health. 

    She waited for eight hours without receiving any mental health intervention and left the hospital with a referral for followup.  

    Less than a week later, Lexi died by suicide.

    Days later, Health Minister Dorothy Shephard conceded the system is "broken," and Horizon Health Network, the authority that operates the Chalmers hospital, said it is reviewing its internal processes "to determine where improvements could have been made."

    Coon said the fact that the system isn't working has been established.

    What's needed now, he said, is action. 

    "Something is very broken and we can't wait any longer to fix it. It's going to cost money and we need to spend the money, we need to do it."

    Coon said he'll push for an inquiry when the legislature resumes on March 16, noting, "I will be relentless about it."

    Liberal Opposition Leader Roger Melanson said Tuesday that he'd support a call for an inquiry if the Daken family wants one, but also wants the province to immediately invest 'significantly' in mental health. (CBC)
     

    Liberals call for significant investment in mental health 

    The Opposition Liberals are also pushing for change at the provincial level in the wake of Lexi Daken's death.

    On Tuesday, Liberal Leader Roger Melanson said he would support the call for an inquiry if that's the family's wish, but said immediate change is also needed.

    "Public inquiries can be a great tool, but to help prevent similar tragedies in the future, we need action," Melanson said.

    "People are struggling right now. There are multiple reports with concrete recommendations that could save lives, we need to start there."  

    Melanson also called for "significant investments into mental health to be included in the upcoming provincial budget," which will be presented to the legislative assembly on March 16.

    He said the provincial government's recently released five-year mental health plan is a start, but it's not enough.

    He'd like to see the government implement its plan in three years instead of five, and regional health authorities become more responsive to patients with mental health concerns.

    "We would hope to see that these patients are properly and quickly triaged and that they are seen by a mental health professional before they leave the hospital," Melanson said.

    Coon has also said he'd like to see money spent on bolstering the recently released five-year mental health plan, including turning the walk-in clinics the province has committed to opening this year into facilities offering emergency 24-hour mental health services.

    Fredericton teen's death a reckoning for the province, mental health advocate says

    Legal experts also weigh in with op-ed blaming governments for years of underfunding

    The death of 16-year-old Lexi Daken last week set off a searing wave of grief across the province. 

    But it has also triggered a reckoning, with mental health experts taking a hard look at a worsening mental health crisis  and legal experts saying her death was at least partly brought on by years of government underfunding.

    Lexi, a Grade 10 student who had previously attempted suicide, was taken to the emergency room at Fredericton's Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital on Thursday, Feb. 18, by a school guidance counsellor who was concerned about her mental health. 

    She waited for eight hours without receiving any mental health intervention. After she was told by a nurse that calling a psychiatrist would take another two hours, Lexi said later, she left the hospital with a referral for followup.  

    Less than a week later, Lexi died by suicide. 

    In an interview with Information Morning Fredericton on Monday, the executive director at the Canadian Mental Health Association of New Brunswick was overcome with emotion while discussing Lexi's death.

    Christa Baldwin, executive director of the Canadian Mental Health Association of New Brunswick, said Lexi&#39;s death was shattering. &quot;I don&#x002019;t think I&#x002019;ve ever cried as much as I have in the past week.&quot; 

    Christa Baldwin, executive director of the Canadian Mental Health Association of New Brunswick, said Lexi's death was shattering. "I don’t think I’ve ever cried as much as I have in the past week."

    'This has to be the piece that moves us forward'

    Christa Baldwin noted that last week had started off with the promise of change, with a new mental health action plan, unveiled by Health Minister Dorothy Shephard, "that would allow us to move forward."

    "But then later in the week, hearing the news about Lexi — it broke our hearts, to be honest. … I don't think I've ever cried as much as I have in the past week."  

    But Lexi's death has also been a turning point, Baldwin said. 

    She noted that Lexi's father, Chris Daken, said in an interview last week that "Lexi's death cannot be in vain." 

    "This has to be a piece that moves us forward  .... we can't have this happening to our youth in our province, we can't have this happening to anyone in our province."

    Baldwin said that resonated with her. 

    "It feels like we  have entered a new chapter in this province, building a service that is client-focused, client-centred," she said.

    "It has ignited a fire within me and within the CMHA to advocate and use our voice to make change happen. We need something to happen for Lexi's family … and for so many other individuals who have died by suicide in this province."

    The new mental health action plan has put some plans and pilot projects in place, Baldwin said.

    Those are positive steps, but more needs to be done, she said, noting barriers to service need to be removed and attitudes toward mental health issues need to change.

    "I think what bothered me most is after eight hours to ask about whether to call a professional to come in to asses Lexi further — if you went in with a broken leg, you would not be asked if someone should be called in to cast your leg," Baldwin said.

    "We need mental health parity. Mental health is a human right equal to physical health."


    In an op-ed, lawyer Jody Carr, above, and UNB law professor Kerri Froc say Lexi's death is a violation of her rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. (CBC News file photo

    A violation of Lexi's charter rights, lawyers say 

    It's a point some legal experts are also making.

    In an op-ed, lawyer Jody Carr and University of New Brunswick law professor Kerri Froc said Lexi's rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms were violated.

    "Under Section 7 of the charter, 'Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice,'" Carr and Froc wrote in the op-ed.

    "Because successive provincial governments have wilfully under-resourced this sector of health care, leading to delays in access to mental health services anchored in the Mental Health Act, violations of New Brunswickers' rights to personal security, and ultimately to life, results. 

    "While it is true that the direct cause of these deaths and injury is self-harm, the Supreme Court of Canada has said that government is responsible for actions that enhance the risk of these violations."

    Carr and Froc argued that "New Brunswick has a duty to ensure that they can talk to a psychiatrist or psychologist at their and their family's time of greatest need."

    In an email Monday, Horizon Health Network, the regional authority that operates the Chalmers Hospital, noted that it does provide around-the-clock psychiatric services at its hospitals.

    "Horizon provides emergency psychiatric services 24 hours per day, seven days a week at our regional hospitals," Dr. Edouard Hendriks, vice-president of medical, academic and research affairs at Horizon.

    "Medical psychiatry staff are available for consultation as required, in collaboration with the on-site care team."

    Nevertheless, some questions remain unanswered.

    Horizon did not immediately answer questions about whether it is tracking how often an on-call psychiatrist is called to come in to see a patient, or how often they decline or are unable to do so.

    It also did not answer questions about why Lexi was told she would face a two-hour wait for a psychiatrist, citing "confidentiality reasons."

    Pandemic taking deepening toll on mental health

    Meanwhile, the pandemic's toll on the mental health of almost every demographic in the province continues to deepen, Baldwin said. 

    In the 2019-20 fiscal year, the Canadian Mental Health Association worked with more than 86,000 New Brunswickers, she said.

    "In the first three-quarters of this fiscal year, we were already at over 117,000 New Brunswickers. … Organizations are feeling that, hospitals are feeling that, Horizon and Vitalité are feeling that. We need to recognize what's happening here in terms of demand for service."

    Carefully developing programs and reaching out to certain demographics to make sure people are not falling through the cracks are more crucial now than ever, she said.

    But so is talking "openly" with people when you see they are struggling, even if it feels uncomfortable.

    "Asking someone if they're suicidal, having suicidal thoughts ... actually saying those words can help," Baldwin said. "We need to have these conversations, we can't sweep it under the rug. Not talking about mental health openly has done us no favours."

    Friends
    Question. Why don’t the “professionals” meet with the advocates that are catching the people they drop? We are on the front lines too! WE HEAR WHERE YOU ARE FAILING! Wanna fix this mess? ASK US! Cause we have been cleaning up for mess for years. Thanks
    Please send this to your MLA and local government! There are so many other advocates like myself who could help if they would let us! I just sent this to CMHA New Brunswick
    My name is Jessica Holly. I run the Bridge of Hope, the one who organized the vigil for Lexi Daken as well as the vigils for all of those we have lost in Saint John. I am pleading with you to meet with the advocates in this province to find proper solutions to the problems we are facing. We catch the people this province drops. If you truly care, if you truly want to find a way to fix this mess, meet with us, because we have been cleaning up the mess this province has left for years. We hear their stories, they cry to us. They beg us for help because the system doesn’t help. If anything, the system makes it worse.
    Team with us so we can finally stop burying New Brunswickers.
    I would be willing to sit down and put our heads together to figure this out. The “professionals” clearly don’t have the answers, why don’t you ask the ones who voluntarily spend their lives fighting to keep people alive. No pay check, no fancy titles, no corner office with a view. Just plain clothed, run of the mill people who kill themselves trying to stop others from killings themselves because our system sucks.
    Thanks


    Hey guys. Just wanted to update you. I have decided to shut down the BOH Fredericton page. I was wrong in how I worded a post, I’ll own that. It is the same one below, about the woman from CMHA. Which I will remove. I was then called malicious and told that I’m uneducated with regards to mental health supports in the province.
    You all know me. I am not wishing her harm, im saying good! We all need to cry! We all need to be outraged! We all need to make change! However that is not how it was received there, and I know, they are grieving, I literally went through the exact same growing pains when I started this page.
    However, as you know I’m one person and it was doing my head in trying to explain and defend myself. I myself hang on by a thread most days, so I need to be careful how thin I stretch my strength here and have to be very careful to not allow others opinions to take me back down the road to suicide.
    I’m thankful that I was able to help in a time of need, however they have many supports in place, and I know when I’m being told to stay in my lane.
    So in Saint John I was raised. Saint John is where I shall stay
    Also that being said, I need to take a breather. This can be a lot on the easiest of days but I grieve each loss, each comment cuts, so I need to “put my own mask on first before putting the mask on someone else”. If my cup is empty, I can’t fill yours.
    I’m still here if you need counselling sessions covered, just PM me and I’ll set it up.
    Love Jess ❤️

     
     

    Fredericton teen who took her own life remembered at drive-by vigil

    'It was overwhelming to see how many lives she touched'

    Cars lined a portion of Queen St. in downtown Fredericton on Sunday night for a drive-by vigil to remember 16-year-old Lexi Daken, who died by suicide on Wednesday.

    Other people gathered outside the New Brunswick Legislature holding candles, flowers and pictures of the teenager.

    Those who knew Daken remember her as witty, smart and athletic.

    Nicole Cormier-Fontaine taught Daken in middle school, and said she was a wonderful person who made an impact on everyone she met. 

    "She was only here for 16 years, but in those 16 years she touched more lives than I could ever imagine," she said.

    Because of the pandemic, people were encouraged to drive past to pay their respects. A steady stream of traffic flowed past the government building for an hour.

    "It was overwhelming to see how many lives she touched," Cormier-Fontaine said, "I think there were more cars than there were people standing here, I kept seeing them roll by."

    The 16-year-old's death has garnered a lot of attention with calls from the family to improve care for people who are suffering from mental health problems.

    They say the system failed Daken.


    More than 100 people gathered in person to pay their respects after the Fredericton teenager died by suicide earlier in the week. Lexi Daken's death has provoked calls for change in mental health services. 2:01

    The teenager died by suicide less than a week after she was sent home from the emergency room at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital in Fredericton.

    A school guidance counsellor had taken her to the hospital on Feb. 18 because she was concerned about her mental health. 

    After waiting more than eight hours, Daken left with a referral and without seeing a mental health professional.

    A few months earlier, in November 2020, she attempted suicide and was brought to the same emergency room.

    While in the early stages of mourning the teenager, Daken's family went public to share Lexi's story to call for change.

    Horizon Health Network said it is reviewing its "internal processes to determine where improvements could have been made" in regards to Daken's death.

    Jessica Holly, from the Saint John-based Bridge of Hope group, organized the vigil. She said Daken's death should be the "final wake up call" for the provincial government and health l, authority to take mental health seriously.

    "It needs to change right now, and not five years from now," she said, "I think they need to throw out the entire system they have now and start over."

    Holly did not know Daken or her family before organizing the vigil but said she hopes it provided some comfort to the community and those who knew Daken.

    Child and youth advocate cautiously optimistic about mental health plan

    Plan would see provincial treatment centre for youth open by 2024

    New Brunswick's child and youth advocate says he's cautiously optimistic after the province announced it's five-year plan to tackle mental health and addictions in the province.

    Earlier this week, the province announced a provincial treatment centre for youth would be open by 2024. 

    Such a centre has been a priority for successive governments, both Liberal and Progressive Conservative, and a centre was planned for Campbellton.

    Concerns about the location and staffing led the Blaine Higgs government to move the centre to Moncton.

    Child and youth advocate Norm Bosse said he was happy to see the plan released but hopes the treatment centre can open sooner.

    "The Addiction and Mental Health Action Plan released by Minister Shepherd this week is a welcome sight, that's for sure," said Bosse. 

    "I know she said 2024, but let's hope that it's built before then."

    Going beyond centre of excellence

    The new centre in Moncton has been trumpeted as a centre of excellence for youth mental health and addictions services.

    But Bosse said treating youth mental health and addiction issues can't stop at the centre of excellence. A network of excellence is needed, he said

    This would allow young people to be treated for more moderate issues in their communities, with more serious cases being reserved for the Moncton centre.

    He cited Saint John's Access Open Minds as an example and said treating youth in their own communities is key to getting them better, faster.


    The province has finally announced a timeline for the completion of a youth treatment centre in Moncton. Norm Bosse is New Brunswick's child and youth advocate. 11:59

    "Youth can go there, they can talk to a counsellor, if they need assistance, they can certainly get it," said Bosse. 

    "It's what we call treating the situation at the right place at the right time and not waiting for months and months to get in to see either psychologists or psychiatrists. Those are what make a difference sometimes so that the situations of mental health don't escalate to the point where they need tertiary care"

    Bosse said the data is too fresh to draw any permanent conclusions, but anecdotally, he said, youth have had a hard time during the pandemic.

    "What we're hearing and receiving from calls for assistance in our office is that children are suffering, there's depression and there's also risk of suicide," said Bosse. 

    "I've not heard of one case of youth dying by suicide during this pandemic, but the the elements are all there to create those situations."

    When it comes to Mental Health, it seems to be all talk.( not only in NB but everywhere unfortunately.) Too few, overworked, stressed out front-line workers and too many chiefs sitting in their towers.

    I think they need the wisdom of Reed Chedore and David Lutz to fix the problem. They have a lifetime of experience.

    I heard on ATV news tonight about a young girl with emotional problems waiting 8 hours for a psychiatrist at the Chalmers Hospital, in Fredericton, to eventually be told that the doctor would not be coming in after all and was sent home. Apparently she had a history of an attempted suicide. I have little if any faith in New Brunswick addressing mental health issues with the plans like those above or any others. Surely the hospital had some ability to have some qualified person speak to this young girl and her family it would appear that no one cared. This lack of intervention is a disgrace. The end of the story? Unfortunately the young lady took her life shortly thereafter. Very sad and depressing. So much for "LET'S TALK"!

    Reply to @Greg Miller: How about just admitting her so she could be observed! Watched around the clock! To say nothing of the fact that the all mighty COVID rules prevented her parents from getting in to switch with the guidance councilor.

    Single Payer is a JOKE. There is no accountability because there is no choice possible. No other place or competitor for your money to go to. No recourse. No alternative.

    Lexi's legacy: Family fights for better mental health access after losing daughter to suicide

    Lexi Daken

    The parents of New Brunswick teen Lexi Daken say better access to mental health care could have saved their daughter who died by suicide after two unsuccessful visits to a Fredericton hospital.

    FREDERICTON -- Lexi Daken loved to ski and play softball, travel and joke around. A 97 per cent wasn't enough, it had to be 100 – and she mused about going into medicine.

    But her parents say there was something troubling the 16-year-old.

    They noticed their fun-loving daughter wasn't herself last summer, a couple of months after the pandemic began.

    "We tried to get, you know, typical teenager, they don't want to talk to their parents right?" her father said. "So, once school started, then she seen the guidance counsellor."

    Sitting at their kitchen table on Thursday, her parents Shawna Betts and Chris Daken, and sister Piper, shared that Lexi attempted suicide in November.

    They say she was given a diagnosis of borderline personality disorder and depression after a trip to the emergency room at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital in Fredericton.

    But, after that, her parents say trying to get any more help through New Brunswick's health system was extremely challenging.

    Then, last Thursday, Lexi's guidance counsellor felt she should go back to the ER.

    According to text messages sent between Lexi and her father, she got to the hospital around 1 p.m., accompanied by the counsellor.

    "I said okay, I'm in Saint John right now, I will head out and I'll be there shortly," Daken said.

    But because of COVID-19 protocols, Daken and the school employee weren't allowed to trade places. So, he said the counsellor remained with Lexi and the two waited to see a psychiatrist.

    'She never got to see the psychiatrist'

    "Our intentions were, once she seen the psychiatrist at the time to get her admitted to the hospital and really get her the help she needed," he said. "But she never got to see the psychiatrist."

    According to text messages and a phone call, Lexi was told at about 8:30 pm that a psychiatrist was no longer available and that staff would have to contact the psychiatrist on-call.

    Her family says, she didn't want to be a burden.

    "What they told us at the time is that we'll send off a referral to mental health and you should hear from them in two weeks. And I have yet to hear from them, even from back in November."

    "Even with the second trip to the ER we still haven't received any contact from mental health," Betts said.

    Lexi died by suicide on Wednesday morning.

    Her family says had she gotten the help she needed last Thursday, she would still be alive.

    'We should all be angry as hell about that'

    "My 16-year-old little girl who just got her beginner's and celebrated her sweet 16 last month," Betts said. "But this is happening to families every day in New Brunswick and we should all be angry as hell about that."

    Piper says Lexi was her best friend and felt she had to speak out about her death, because she wants to make sure other families don't suffer the same loss.

    "The night before … we were having a conversation, we were planning a grad trip together to Kenya because she was supposed to go this summer and she never got to go because of COVID," she said. "I know she loved me and I know that she knows that I loved her, but I just wish that I could tell her one more time."

    CTV Atlantic contacted the Horizon Health Network, and Margaret Melanson, the network's vice-president of quality and patient-centred care, said patient representatives are always available to discuss any concerns patients may have in order to offer support and guidance, but that she can't comment further due to confidentiality reasons.

    3 new watchdogs appointed

    Premier names child and youth advocate, official languages commissioner and ombudsman

    The Alward government has announced the appointment of three new people to watchdog positions in the province, based on a new selection process.

    The new child and youth advocate is Saint John lawyer Norm Bossé, who represented victims in the Kingsclear reformatory sex abuse case.

    Katherine d'Entremont, a career civil servant, will be the new commissioner of official languages.

    And the new ombudsman is Charles Murray, a civil servant and former political assistant to one-time Tory MP Elsie Wayne and to former PC cabinet minister Brad Green.

    "I am confident that their experience and education will help them to carry out their respective duties effectively," said Premier David Alward.

    He said Murray's appointment is not political.

    "The individuals went through a very significant assessment and interviewing process."

    Selection process overhauled

    In March, the government overhauled the selection process for the arm's-length watchdog positions that offer a six-figure, deputy minister-level salary, for a seven-year term.

    Previously, the government picked people for the positions that report to the legislative assembly, in consultation with the opposition. The legislature would then approve the choice.

    But now, a committee of bureaucrats, lawyers and academics review applications from people who are interested in the positions and presents qualified individuals to the premier.

    He then consults with the leader of the opposition and recommendations are made through the legislative assembly.

    The committee in this case included a provincial court judge, a member of the university community, the clerk of the legislature and the clerk of the executive council.

    "We are pleased as a government that we created a new process to be more fair and transparent," said Alward.

    Liberal Opposition Leader Brian Gallant was consulted on the three choices and signed off on all of them, including Murray.

    "Charles Murray has a very impressive resume," said Gallant. "There was a good group of people that looked through a lot of the candidacies and he came through as the consensus choice."

    Parents of teen who took her own life say Fredericton ER failed her just days earlier

    Lexi Daken was a Grade 10 student at Leo Hayes High School


    Mia Urquhart· CBC News· Posted: Feb 26, 2021 6:00 AM AT

     


    Lexi Daken was a Grade 10 student at Leo Hayes High School in Fredericton. (Submitted by Chris Daken)

    Chris Daken said anyone who knew his 16-year-old daughter would say she was the last person they'd expect to take her own life. 

    Her outgoing nature and her constant smile masked the pain she was experiencing inside. 

    "Every picture has a smile on her face, yet the kid was suffering so badly, and she just hid that with a smile," said her mother, Shawna Betts. 

    On Wednesday, the Grade 10 student at Leo Hayes High School in Fredericton died by suicide at her home in Maugerville, outside the city.

    Her parents are heartbroken, but they're speaking publicly in the hopes of changing a health-care system they say failed their daughter when she needed help. 

    On Feb. 18, Lexi met with a guidance counsellor at school who recognized that she was having mental health issues, said Daken.

    The counsellor immediately took Lexi to the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital in Fredericton, where she waited for eight hours to see a mental health professional. 

    Lexi told her father that the nurse at the hospital said calling a psychiatrist would take another two hours. 

    Betts said the whole interaction made Lexi feel like a "burden." She said Lexi was asked, "Are you really going to make us call them?"

    Instead, Lexi left the hospital with a referral. 

    But no call came before she took her own life on Wednesday morning.

    Betts wants to see changes in the way mental health patients are treated in emergency room. Patients shouldn't be turned away just because their injuries aren't visible, she said.

    Daken hopes Lexi's story will help parents recognize the signs of children who are struggling with mental health issues. 

    Sometimes they're not easy to see — especially in a person who seems so happy on the outside and has so much going for them, he said. 

    Lexi, a perfectionist, began showing subtle signs of depression last summer. (Submitted by Chris Daken) 

    Daken described his daughter as "a firecracker." She was social, personable, athletic and smart. She was also a hard worker and a perfectionist.

    If she had a test, she'd want to get 100 per cent, he said. And if there was a bonus question, she'd want to get more than 100. 

    Daken said he started to see subtle signs of depression in Lexi last summer — she was sleeping in, spending more time in her room, showing less enthusiasm for activities, even her beloved softball. 

    But a lot of parents see the same things in their teenagers, so, not surprisingly, Daken chalked it up to regular teenager stuff. 

    The wake-up call didn't come until this past November, when Lexi took some pills. 

    She became frightened, had second thoughts and called 911.

    "That was really the first shocking revelation that she had more serious issues than just depression," said Daken. 

    She saw a psychiatrist that night and got a referral for a mental health followup.

    Daken said no one ever followed up with them. Instead, they used private counselling paid for by Daken's employee benefits.

    "I don't think those were at the level that she obviously needed," he said of the sessions she went to. 

    Daken suspects Lexi had probably suffered in silence for years but put on a brave face for everyone around her. 

    When she was in Grade 6 or 7, she did a project on depression.  

    "I don't know if she considered herself to be depressed then, but I think she was aware of the situation, and doing the project would help her cope with the issues or give her a better understanding of what she may be thinking and feeling," he said.  

    Her mom believes the pandemic likely exacerbated the problem. 

    Betts said Lexi would spend hours video-chatting with friends, but not being able to get together with them "made her feel more isolated than before." 

    Her dad said she seemed fine while she was with people, but in her room at night things got bad. 

    Since her suicide attempt in November, he said, family members would reach out to her at those times to see if she was OK. 

    Her oldest sibling, 19-year-old Piper, would often text Lexi or Facetime her in the wee hours of the morning, and occasionally pick her up for a late night McDonald's run.

    The family stepped up the vigilance in the last week of Lexi's life, said Daken. Invitations were extended, plans were made, including to go fishing.

    In fact, on Tuesday night, Daken took her to Saint John to visit relatives. He said they had a great time, chatting on the way there and back.

    He said goodnight to Lexi at about 11 p.m., and she continued to communicate with her friends via cellphone — the last message was sent at about 3 a.m. 

    At 3:30 a.m., Daken found Lexi unconscious in her bedroom. He rushed her to the hospital, but her condition continued to worsen throughout the morning. She died at 11 a.m.

    The family is waiting to learn what the toxicology report reveals. 

    Fighting for change

    Daken and Betts have contacted the patient advocate at the hospital and the province's ombud to try to change the way mental health cases are dealt with at hospitals. 

    "If the person has actually got up and gone to a hospital during the … pandemic, they obviously think that they need help now," said Betts.

    "And so to then just basically let them sit there for eight hours, and then make them feel like a burden, that isn't what we pay our tax dollars for. That is shit service. And that needs to be fixed."

    A spokesperson for Horizon Health Network declined to say whether officials are investigating the incident. 

    "We take any concerns expressed in relation to patient care extremely seriously. Horizon's patient representatives are always available to discuss any concerns patients may have in order to offer support and guidance," Margaret Melanson, vice-president, quality and patient-centred care, wrote in an email statement. 

    Leo Hayes principal Jeff Holder said, "our school experienced a loss that has affected us deeply."

    "We are doing everything we can to be responsive to the needs of our students and their families."

    Holder said officials from the school and the district will provide counselling and support to students and teachers. 

    "Parents have received information from the school on how to work through loss with their children. We know that times like this can be stressful, and in the days ahead we will continue to be available to those who need support."

    Horizon examines how suicidal teen was able to leave Fredericton hospital without help

    Politicians, including cabinet minister, say New Brunswick mental health system is 'broken'

    Horizon Health Network says it is reviewing the care a 16-year-old received at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Hospital in Fredericton last week before she took her own life. 

    "As with other matters of this nature, Horizon will be reviewing our internal processes to determine where improvements could have been made," Jean Daigle, vice-president community, said in an email sent on Friday. 

    Shawna Betts said her 16-year-old daughter, who had previously attempted suicide, was taken to the emergency room on Feb. 18 by a school guidance counsellor who was concerned about her mental health. 

    Lexi Daken, a Grade 10 student at Leo Hayes High School in Fredericton, waited for eight hours without receiving any mental health intervention. She left the hospital with a referral for followup. 

    Betts said no one ever contacted the family.

    On Wednesday morning, Lexi died by suicide.

    "Horizon wishes to acknowledge that this situation is nothing short of a tragedy," said Daigle. 

    "No family should ever have to endure the loss of a child. On behalf of everyone at Horizon, I'd like to offer our deepest condolences to the family as they cope with this unfathomable loss."

    He said Horizon provides on-call, emergency psychiatric services 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

    So far, no one has commented on the specifics of why Lexi didn't receive any mental health counselling, or why no one followed up with her, but politicians expressed sympathy for the family and impatience with the system.

    "It is time to fix this broken system and truly address the needs of all New Brunswickers," Health Minister Dorothy Shephard said Friday.

    She said, "those who have experienced a similar tragedy in their lives are retraumatized by these events. Those who have had near-misses are retraumatized as well. Anyone who has taken a loved one to the hospital for help and left feeling hopeless can commiserate with the pain this family is experiencing."

    The day before Lexi died, Shephard released details of a five-year plan for increasing access to mental health services. But her department did not respond to questions on Friday about whether anything in her plan would prevent what happened to Lexi. 

    On Friday morning, all four political party leaders responded to the story on CBC radio. 

    "As a parent, it's hard to fathom," said Premier Blaine Higgs. "Waiting eight hours is unacceptable. It's heart-wrenching."

    Higgs said the problem lies with the system, and not the individuals who work in it. 

    "We have to fix this," he said. "And it's about priorities. We can't do everything, but let's do what we must."

    Liberal Leader Roger Melanson said hospitals are not the right setting to help those in crisis. 

    He said the province needs another setting for those experiencing mental health issues, "where that's the focus — and that's the only focus."

    Green Party Leader David Coon agreed. 

    He said traditional ERs weren't designed for mental health emergencies. 

    "Mental health has been treated by government after government after government as the poor cousin in the health-care system," said Coon. 

    "It's been neglected."


    Sixteen-year-old Lexi Daken was a popular and gifted student who struggled with depression and anxiety. She tried to get help at the Chalmers Hospital emergency room. Barely a week later, Lexi was dead. 3:34 

    He said the five-year plan unveiled this week contains "some improvements," but those need to be "implemented and fully resourced, fully funded."

    People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin said Lexi's death has shaken his community and the province. 

    "The whole thing is an absolute disaster," said Austin. 

    "And if this doesn't shine light on the seriousness of this issue and getting our heads around mental health in this province and allowing for some specialties … because this is heart-wrenching and this can't happen again."

    Lexi's story

    Lexi's parents decided to talk publicly about their daughter's story in hopes of changing the system. 

    Her father, Chris Daken, said he first noticed changes in Lexi last summer — she was sleeping in, spending more time in her room, showing less enthusiasm for activities, even for her beloved softball. 

    Daken chalked it up to regular teenager stuff — until she attempted suicide in November. 

    She ended up at the hospital and was able to see a psychiatrist at that time. She was sent home with a referral for followup by mental health professionals. 

    Daken said no one ever contacted the family, so they arranged for some counselling through his employee-benefits program. 

    While Lexi always seemed happy when she was around people, her darkest moments came late at night when she was alone. 

    Lexi Daken's family describe her as a perfectionist, an excellent student, outgoing and personable. (Submitted by Chris Daken)

    Family members tried to keep her busy and reached out to her often.

    Her 19-year-old sister, Piper, said she would often send her messages in the middle of the night and would occasionally pick her up for a late-night McDonald's run. 

    When Lexi left the Chalmers hospital without any help on Feb. 18, family members stepped up their efforts trying to keep her busy. 

    The night before she died, Daken even took Lexi to Saint John to visit relatives. 

    Daken and Betts want to see changes in the way mental health patients are treated in emergency rooms. And Daken hopes Lexi's story will help parents recognize the signs of children who are struggling with mental health issues. 

    Recognizing depression

    Sometimes, said Daken, it's not easy to spot — especially in a person who seems so happy on the outside and has so much going for them, like Lexi did. 

    Muriel Doucet, a Moncton-based suicide prevention co-ordinator for Horizon Health, said depression isn't always easy to recognize.

    "It would present very differently, depending on the person." 

    She said parents should look for changes in a child's behaviour — anything that deviates from the norm. 

    "So if they have a tendency to pull away more than usual, maybe something is going on. Or it could be also the person that has a lot of outbursts," she said. 

    "It's anything beyond the baseline of how the person normally would act."

    Doucet said teenagers sometimes don't understand that things will eventually get better.

    "So whatever we can do to help the person not feel so isolated and alone with their pain." 

    Sometimes it's as simple as distraction, said Doucet. 

    "As soon as we start moving around from being in a zone of not feeling great, it can change the patterns in our brains," she said. 

    And it's OK if parents don't have all the answers. 

    "Just being there, listening, allowing them the space to share, to cry if they have to, to yell and scream if they have to. Whatever it is that will help reduce some of the negative types of feelings that they're experiencing is a help to anyone who's kind of struggling."

    Doucet said it's important to have conversations about suicide. 

    "Best practice tells us, and the experts tell us, that the more we talk about it, the more we help people know where to reach out and how to reach out." 

    Vigil planned

    Jessica Holly, from the Saint John-based Bridge of Hope group, has organized a candlelight vigil for Lexi on Sunday at 6 p.m. in front of the New Brunswick Legislature in Fredericton. 

    Holly said she was "heartbroken but not shocked" after hearing Lexi's story. 

    She explained that Sunday's event will be a drive-by vigil. Those taking part are asked to use their four-way flashers as they drive by. 

    Holly and others will be standing in front of the legislature to take any flowers, letters, teddy bears, or other items that people want to leave for Lexi. 

    She said it will be a silent vigil, not a protest.

    There, its done.
    The people of this province are left no explantation of anything. We
    are not permitted to know why she was fired, we are not permitted to
    know what the settlement was and we are not permitted to know the
    costs all this has had on our pocket books.
    New Brunswick is a place of misinformation, poor information or no
    information....I guess that is how a democracy as sick as ours works.

    >> to play a role in the debate about shale gas.
    >> Dr. Eilish Cleary spoke to reporters Friday about the province's
    >> decision to release her report on the issue, after the Alward
    >> government first suggested it would be kept confidential.
    >> Cleary also pushed back against Environment Minister Bruce Fitch and
    >> his description of her report. Cleary was asked whether her work was
    >> out of date -- a suggestion made yesterday in a comment by Fitch.
    >> "Some of the technology has improved based on some of the information
    >> that was researched in her work," Fitch said.
    >> "The situation will change," said Cleary. "The recommendations may
    >> need to be updated but it is as current as we can provide at this
    >> time. I believe it's important for public health to be involved at
    >> every step of the shale gas development."
    >> Cleary says there was a lot of confusion this week and now that
    >> confusion has been resolved. She says she's satisfied that the Alward
    >> government will release her report on the health impacts of
    >> hydrofracking.
    >> Cleary said she believes her role is to communicate directly with the
    >> public on all health issues, including shale gas.
    >> "Should something arise that affects the health of the population, I
    >> will speak about it," said Cleary.
    >> Cleary wouldn't describe her conversations with Health Minister
    >> Madeleine Dube. She says she'll speak about the contents of the report

    >> (CBC)
    >> The Alward government will not say whether it will release a report by
    >> the province's chief medical officer of health on the potential health
    >> impacts of the shale gas industry.
    >> Dr. Eilish Cleary spent part of the summer drafting recommendations
    >> for the provincial government on possible shale gas development in New
    >> Brunswick.
    >> She was to look at the potential health impacts of the industry and
    >> what the provincial government should do to minimize them.
    >> But Tracey Burkhardt, a spokeswoman with the Department of Health,
    >> told CBC News that Cleary won't be discussing her recommendations
    >> publicly.
    >> The report will be circulated internally as part of the provincial
    >> government's discussion on shale gas, Burkhardt said.

    >> Stephanie Merrill, the fresh water program co-ordinator for the
    >> Conservation Council of New Brunswick, contends it's important
    >> Cleary's report on the controversial issue be made public.
    >> "We need that piece, to make sure people have the whole picture," Merrill
    >> said.
    >> "That's the piece that's missing, and that's the piece that is, I
    >> think, the most salient to the public. That's what they really want to
    >> know — how is this going to impact me and my family going forward?"
    >> Important to track effects
    >> In May, when Cleary undertook the review, she said "there would need
    >> to be some investment in resources and infrastructure to ensure that
    >> the negative impacts are mitigated and minimized."
    >> Cleary, the province's top public health official, said it would be
    >> important to try to track the health effects of the industry, but that
    >> it would be expensive.
    >> She had been looking at what other provinces and U.S. jurisdictions
    >> had done to monitor any impacts from hydraulic fracturing, commonly
    >> known as hydro-fracking.
    >> Hydro-fracking is a process where exploration companies inject a
    >> mixture of water, sand and chemicals into the ground, creating cracks
    >> in shale rock formations. That process allows companies to extract
    >> natural gas from areas that would otherwise go untapped.
    >> Opponents to the shale gas industry say the hydro-fracking process can
    >> cause water and air pollution.
    >> The provincial government has promised to release the results of a
    >> separate report by Prof. Louis LaPierre on his public consultations
    >> regarding proposed rule changes for the industry.
    >> LaPierre's report is expected this fall.
    >> But officials say it's too early to commit to releasing Cleary's
    >> recommendations publicly.
    >> The government introduced 116 proposed changes to the regulatory
    >> framework that oversees the oil and gas industry in May.
    >> The new provincial regulations will set out stricter rules on

    Hold off on selling Cannabis NB, say Grits, Greens

    After some early challenges, Crown corporation now making profits

    Two out of three opposition parties with seats in the New Brunswick legislature say they want the province to hold off on selling Cannabis NB.

    In 2019 the province asked for offers to buy the Crown corporation tasked with selling cannabis in the province.

    This came after the corporation sustained losses over multiple quarters.

    But Cannabis NB has rebounded in the past year, earning $8.3 million in net profit so far this fiscal year.

    In this week's political panel, Liberal MLA Rob McKee said the increased revenue isn't the only reason the province should hold off on selling the Crown corporation.

    "There are shut down costs that will happen with the winding down of Cannabis NB," said McKee. 

    "We believe that it should continue with government running the sale and distribution of cannabis."

    Green MLA Kevin Arseneau said the Crown corporation should not be sold. (Radio-Canada)

    Green MLA Kevin Arseneau agreed with McKee that the Crown corporation should not be sold.

    "I think there's also public health reasons with the reinvesting some of the profits into public health measures and campaigns," said Arseneau. 

    "There's also the fact that these are unionized jobs. So good paying jobs in different communities is always a great thing."

    Not all the opposition parties are in agreement though.

    People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin says the province should never have been in the cannabis business in the first place.

    "[It] boggles my mind that government has any business in retail, especially when you talk about marijuana and alcohol," said Austin. 

    "I think government has a role to play in regulating it, ensuring that there's fair taxation on the sold product. But as far as retailing it, I mean, it's just absurd that government has gotten to this point where it's involved in any type of retail of any sort"

    While Austin agrees with the Progressive Conservative's push to get the government out of the weed business, he doesn't agree with going from a public monopoly to a private one.

    "I don't see that having any effect on the black market," said Austin.

    "I just think it should be open to people that want to start a business and go with it as long as, again, its properly regulated fair taxation"

     

    Liberal MLA Rob McKee said he believes the government’s move to sell Cannabis NB is ideological. (CBC)

    McKee said he believes the government's move to sell Cannabis NB is ideological, given the corporation was started under a Liberal government and Premier Blaine Higgs had criticized the idea before he came into office

    "His stubbornness probably means that they will continue down the road of selling off the rights to selling cannabis," said McKee.

    No one from government was made available for the political panel because negotiations are underway, a spokesperson said.

     

    Premier urged to press pause on Cannabis NB decision in 11th-hour letter

    Assembly of First Nations chief, businesses say premier hasn't consulted with stakeholders, residents


    Marie Sutherland· CBC News· Posted: Mar 04, 2021 6:27 PM AT

     


    Assembly of First Nations Regional Chief Roger Augustine and 10 New Brunswick-based cannabis businesses have sent a letter urging Premier Blaine Higgs to pause a decision on privatizing Cannabis NB. (Radio-Canada file photo)

    Premier Blaine Higgs is being urged to stand down on making a decision on Cannabis NB until he has consulted with businesses, residents, Indigenous groups and others.

    A six-page letter, signed by Assembly of First Nations Regional Chief Roger Augustine and nine New Brunswick-based cannabis businesses and dated March 4, presses Higgs and Finance Minister Ernie Steeves to "pause any further decision or negotiation regarding Cannabis NB."

    "As investors in this province, its people and its potential, we believe we deserve to be consulted fully on the future of Cannabis NB," the letter states. "To date that has not taken place."

    The letter comes as negotiations are already underway, according to a Higgs government spokesperson.

    Higgs had earlier said a final decision on whether to privatize the Crown agency would be made by the end of 2020. In late December, a Finance Department spokesperson said the process "would continue into the new year."

    On Thursday, the groups laid out a list of reasons the decision should be paused.

    In addition to fears that privatization would lead to a loss of New Brunswick jobs, it argued the agency's fortunes have drastically changed since the possibility of privatization was raised in November 2019.

    "At the time, it was easy to understand why the province might consider a sale of this agency given the financial losses it was incurring at the time," the letter said.

    "However, those losses have been turned around and [earlier] issues … that allowed the regulated market to compete with the illicit market have been addressed."

    The agency has since posted four consecutive profitable quarters and expects to exceed $10 million in profit for the year, Cannabis NB and Alcool NB Liquor spokesperson Thomas Tremblay said in February.

    "This is momentum we feel will be imperilled by a move to a single private retailer," the letter to Higgs said, arguing it would "favour its own financial well-being" over the province's bottom line.

    No other province has given up control, group says

    In addition to Augustine, the letter is signed by the presidents of New Brunswick-based cannabis companies Zenabis Global, Organigram Holdings Inc., Stewart Farms, Lady Jane Cannabis Ltd., Golden Peak Cannabis Inc., Eco Canadian Organic Inc., New Brunswick Cannabis Co-ordinator, Flemming & Singh Cannabis and the director of the New Brunswick Craft Cannabis Association.

    The letter notes no other provincial government in Canada has given up control of retail operations of the cannabis industry, arguing that doing so would jeopardize their ability to harness the sector's "global potential."

    "British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec all have maintained full or partial control over their recreational cannabis industries and are seeing success ... in terms of financial returns to the province," the letter states.

    The group also said that selling Cannabis NB to a private monopoly would be a "missed opportunity" for reconciliation and economic growth, noting it will make it very difficult to fully include Indigenous entrepreneurs in the regulated retail cannabis space.  

    CBC News has sought comment from the Higgs government.

    Dear Taxpayer:

    Thank you for your correspondence regarding the KPMG case, which
    attracted media attention. Thank you also for your understanding
    regarding the delay of this response.

    As Minister of National Revenue, my goal is to make sure the Canada
    Revenue Agency (CRA) offers services that are fair, helpful, and easy
    to use. This continues to be my priority and my focus as I devote my
    efforts to delivering tangible results to taxpayers.

    Although I cannot comment on a specific case, I can give you the
    following general information. Settlements are concluded independently
    from the Minister of National Revenue and the Minister's Office to
    ensure the integrity of the tax system. They involve an independent
    process within the CRA, in collaboration with the Department of
    Justice.

    In tax disputes, there is limited flexibility on settlement amounts
    because CRA tax disputes are subject to the legal principles set out
    in the Income Tax Act. The CRA is bound by the principles of tax law
    and the rules arising from Canadian tax legislation. For example, when
    a tax dispute involves an amount of $50,000, the taxpayer and the CRA
    can agree on a lesser amount only if the determination of this amount
    is based in law.

    Settlements can also resolve tax issues that are not before the Court.
    These settlements are carried out through an agreement called "minutes
    of settlement," which is signed by a CRA official and the taxpayer.
    Because this agreement is not public, taxpayers may see the use of
    settlements as a lack of transparency. This is why I have asked the
    CRA to review its procedures to find ways it can ensure greater
    transparency regarding why it enters into settlements. Taxpayers
    expect the tax system to be fair and equitable, and the CRA works
    continuously to make sure that it is.

    The CRA remains committed to combatting tax evasion and aggressive tax
    avoidance. Individuals who participate in illegal tax strategies must
    face the consequences of their actions, and taxpayers expect nothing
    less.

    I appreciate the opportunity to respond to your concerns and trust the
    information I have provided is helpful.

    Sincerely,

    The Honourable Diane Lebouthillier
    Minister of National Revenue

    Jailed pastor calls in to service as GraceLife Church violates COVID-19 closure order for sixth time

    Associate pastor Jacob Spenst conducted Sunday's service, but said Coates was joining in over the phone although he didn't speak

    A Parkland County church held another packed service Sunday morning with its jailed pastor on the phone despite a closure order for COVID-19 restriction violations.

    Vehicles packed the parking lot of GraceLife Church before the service and two marked RCMP vehicles were on site. People could be seen singing unmasked, breaking COVID-19 orders, on a livestream of the service.

    Distroscale

    This was the third-straight service held without church pastor James Coates who remains in the Edmonton Remand Centre. Coates was charged for breaching COVID-19 orders on Feb. 7 and was taken into custody on Feb. 16 after another service was held.

    Associate pastor Jacob Spenst conducted Sunday’s service, but said Coates was joining in over the phone although he didn’t speak.

    RCMP spokesman Cpl. Curtis Peters told Postmedia there is no immediate information on enforcement from Sunday’s service, but said there will be “a fulsome update (Monday) for the media.”

    Coates is excpected to remain in custody until his trial scheduled for May 3-5.

    Ordered closed Jan. 29: AHS

    The church was ordered closed by Alberta Health Services on Jan. 29 as a result of continuing capacity restriction violations and not adhering to physical distancing. Churches in Alberta are allowed to remain open to 15 per cent capacity under the fire code.

    When the church was inspected back in January, there were more than 290 people. Attendees were observed unmasked and in violation of the two-metre distancing requirements between households. But the church has held an in-person service each of the six weeks following the order, all of them in violation of the restrictions.

     
     
    • Hey Alberta....
      The "Freedom Unity Alliance" from Calgary led by Brad Carrigan, with Art Pawluski's Street Church, completely dropped the ball in Edmonton last weekend.... MONTHS worth of hard work building up a credible platform, from our Edmonton organizers have been flushed down the toilet... in an instant. Our rallies have never received headlines like this.... because we do not provoke it. If you the people, actually want to beat this Covid 19 insanity.... you'd better examine your "leaders." Brad Carrigan.... STEP DOWN.

    • While there were so many genuine people attending this rally, the same cannot be said for the motivations and agendas of most of the organizers. For those trying to defend the Sat 20th event, I suggest doing as much research on these "leaders" for freedom as you did for COVID19. It is why we cancelled our event for the 20st and will not ally what we are trying to do with their causes. We have one focus - the government response to COVID19 and the impact on all Canadians. We have no affiliations with groups, political parties or religious organizations nor are we angling for donations or subscriptions. Anyone has the opportunity to present a speech for approval. The choice is simple but do your homework if you really want to understand where you are pledging allegiance. It took a great deal of thought, research and time to decide where we would stake our name and reputation. We are proud to stand with the Angry Albertan group for truth, justice and liberty in what we all know is a fight for our lives..
     
     

    Edmonton police chief says no evidence of racist intent behind the use of tiki torches at legislature rally

    Edmonton’s police chief says the department doesn’t have evidence of racist intent behind the use of tiki torches at a February anti-lockdown rally.

    Chief Dale McFee told media Tuesday he and the Edmonton Police Service don’t condone tiki torches but said some people didn’t know why they were carrying them at the legislature on Feb. 20. Torches are a symbol often associated with white nationalism and McFee confirmed hate crimes detectives were present.

     https://youtu.be/z3QT0i97NuM


    “Because somebody says that’s a white supremacist rally, you have to have evidence that it is, because that’s not what it was … we don’t have that evidence,” he said.

    McFee said EPS does not condone using the torches and if the “real meaning” behind them was racist then police want to see evidence.

    “Tiki torches, certainly I denounce that, I mean there’s no place for that. But that said, there’s a difference between the legal threshold in relation to what is a hate crime.”

     

    There have been recent media reports of Chief McFee’s comments about the rally at the Alberta legislature. For clarity, here are the Chief’s comments from our media availability earlier today: (1/8)
    Chief McFee comments on media story

    The protest has been widely condemned for white supremacist imagery.

    Flyers promoting the event included photos from a 2017 white nationalist torch rally in Charlottesville, Va. Premier Jason Kenney and Mayor Don Iveson both condemned the rally last month, saying that “prominent racists” promoted the event and people from hate groups like Soldiers of Odin and Urban Infidels attended.

    McFee said police need to “take the balance” at rallies, keep the peace, and make sure no one gets hurt.

    He said there wasn’t any evidence at the rally meeting the definition of a hate crime in the Criminal Code that would lead to a successful prosecution.

    McFee also reiterated an earlier statement by EPS that the event was largely peaceful, although four officers were punched in the head. Police are still looking to identify the culprit and will hold that person accountable, he said.

    Racism obvious

    Evan Balgord, executive director of the Canadian Anti-Hate Network, said the connection to hate at the rally is obvious.

    “When the police chief says there was no intent that this was a racist rally, it was promoted as that for anyone who was paying attention,” he said.

    “There’s the Charlottesville imagery, and then there’s picking speakers like Kevin J. Johnston who has already been charged with hate speech.”

    Johnston was previously charged with a hate crime in Ontario and ordered to pay $2.5 million in a defamation lawsuit over hateful comments.

    Balgord said every hate group they track has at least some involvement in COVID-19 conspiracy movement.

    Far-right groups generally believe police support them, he said, and so making strong statements condemning their actions and hate, particularly before an event, is important.

    “Anything short of full-on condemnation they perceive as support. When the police show up and let them have their rally and lead them on bikes or stand around talking, they perceive that as police protection.”

    Absence of strong condemnation and consequences emboldens them, he said. Balgord said protesters should have been ticketed for breaking the health restrictions, but Alberta sheriffs have jurisdiction over the legislature grounds.

    Chief’s comments ‘disheartening’

    Irfan Chaudhry, a hate crime and violent extremism researcher and director of the office of human rights, diversity and equity at MacEwan University, said the chief’s comments are probably correct given the limits of the Criminal Code.

    But he said downplaying the significance of the symbols is “disheartening” given recent attacks on Muslim women and an increase in right-wing extremism in Alberta.

    “Symbols are power in right-wing extremism, and the power in itself is by being able to deny that it’s connected to any type of … hateful ideology,” he said.

    “Acknowledging the impact that the symbols have on communities of colour — whether or not there’s enough evidence to proceed with any charges, I think that’s another consideration — but it’s that support for the community that I think is missing.”

    He would like to see more direction for how police can enforce laws on hate speech in Canada.

    Ottawa, ON K1P 6L4

                                     RE: Rampant Public Corruption

     Hey,

          Pursuant to my recent phone calls to Norman Sabourin and various
    underlings of Shirley Heafey within the Commission for Public
    Complaints against the RCMP over the years plus my many faxes and
    emails please find enclosed exactly the same material received by
    every Attorney General in Canada over the past year. The CD which is a
    copy of a police surveillance wiretap tape # 139 is served upon you as
    officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated.
    As you can see I have enclosed a copy of a letter sent to the latest
    Attorney General Mr. Wally Opal in BC. Perhaps he should take a little
    trip to Surrey and ask your office some hard questions. Perhaps the
    ghost of my fellow Independent politician, Chuck Cadman may wish to
    answer few questions now as well. Hard telling not knowing.

          I will not bother you with the details of what I am sending to
    you byway of the certified US Mail because I will be serving identical
    material to many other Canadian Authorities in hand and tell them I
    gave this stuff to you first and enclose a copy of this letter. All
    that is important to me right now is that I secure proof that this
    mail was sent before I make my way back home to the Maritimes. However
    I will say I am also enclosing a great deal more material than what
    Allan Rock had received in the UN. Some of it is in fact the same
    material the two maritime lawyers, Rob Moore and Franky Boy McKenna in
    particular received, while I was up home running for Parliament last
    year. Things have changed greatly in the past year so I have also
    included a few recent items to spice thing up for you. I am tired of
    trying to convince people employed in law enforcement to uphold the
    law. So all I will say for now is deal will your own conscience and be
    careful how you respond to this letter. If you do not respond. Rest
    assured I will do my best to sue you some day. Ignorance is no excuse
    to the law or me.

    The case of a judge who asked a woman, "Why couldn't you just keep
    your knees together?" during an Alberta sexual assault trial is
    raising questions about what kind of behaviour warrants removing a
    justice from the bench.

    Only two judges have been recommended for removal by the Canadian
    Judicial Council — a group of federally appointed judges tasked with
    investigating complaints about their peers — since it was created in
    1971.
    Trevor Farrow

    Trevor Farrow, associate dean at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto,
    says it's 'a good thing' that judges don't lightly recommend
    dismissing their peers. (Osgoode Hall Law School)

    In both cases, the judges resigned before the recommendations made it
    to Parliament, which ultimately decides whether or not to dismiss a
    Canadian judge.

    On Monday, the judicial council announced it was reviewing the conduct
    of Robin Camp while he was an Alberta provincial court judge in 2014,
    when he presided over a case involving a 19-year-old woman who alleged
    she was sexually assaulted by a Calgary man during a house party.

    According to the complaint that prompted the review, in addition to
    the "keep your knees together" comment, Camp asked during the trial,
    "Why didn't you just sink your bottom down into the basin so he
    couldn't penetrate you?" (The woman alleged she was sexually assaulted
    over a sink).

    "At numerous points during the proceeding, Justice Camp was dismissive
    of, if not contemptuous towards, the substantive law of sexual assault
    and the rules of evidence," the complaint said. "In particular, he
    showed disregard, if not disdain, for the rape shield provisions under
    the Criminal Code, the legal definition of consent to sexual touching,
    and the Criminal Code provision and case law regarding the doctrine of
    recent complaint.

    "His articulated disrespect for these legal rules was, in some
    instances, combined with a refusal to apply them."

    The Canadian Judicial Council must decide whether the complaint
    against Camp, now a Federal Court judge, has merit and, if so, whether
    it warrants the establishment of a review panel that could call a
    public inquiry.

    In the last four decades, the judicial council has ordered public
    inquiries for 11 complaints against judges. Two of those inquiries are
    still ongoing. In some cases, the judge resigned before the inquiry
    was complete. For example, the late Judge Robert Flahiff was convicted
    in 1999 for laundering money for a drug dealer back in the 1980s,
    before he became a judge. He resigned before the judicial council
    finished its inquiry.

    In other cases, the council recommended that the judges involved not
    be removed from the bench — even if there had been inappropriate
    conduct.

    "It's not a fait accompli that if you have engaged in some kind of
    misconduct you should be removed from office," said Norman Sabourin,
    the Canadian Judicial Council's executive director, in an interview
    with CBC News on Tuesday. "Assessing the gravity of a misconduct is a
    difficult exercise."

    The overarching question in making that determination, the council
    said, is whether the judge has the required confidence of the public
    to continue to preside in court.

    So when has the council recommended that a judge be removed? Here are
    the two cases in which that happened. The details come from documents
    available on the Canadian Judicial Council's website:

    Paul Cosgrove, Ontario Superior Court

    On April 22, 2004, Ontario's attorney general at the time, Michael
    Bryant, asked the council to consider whether Judge Paul Cosgrove
    should be removed from office based on his conduct in the murder trial
    of Julia Yvonne Elliott.

    The attorney general said Cosgrove had ordered an "unwarranted stay"
    of proceedings.

        Ontario judge resigns over misconduct

    "The proceedings tarnished the administration of justice and turned
    into an exercise of vilifying the state built on irrelevant,
    inappropriate and harmful findings," Bryant wrote. "The proceedings
    trivialized the charter and deprived society and the victim's family
    of any semblance of justice."

    The attorney general's complaint alleged that Cosgrove had
    demonstrated similar behaviour in other court cases, citing Court of
    Appeal findings that the judge had "reduced the proceedings to a
    'procedural nightmare' for the Crown" and shown a "suspicious attitude
    toward the government that caused him to misapprehend some of the
    evidence before him."

    On March 30, 2009, after a public inquiry, the Canadian Judicial
    Council recommended that Cosgrove be removed from office. The judge
    resigned the following month.

    Jean Bienvenue, Superior Court of Quebec

    In December 1995, the then attorneys general of Quebec and Canada,
    Paul Bégin and Allan Rock, asked the Canadian Judicial Council for a
    public inquiry into the conduct of Judge Jean Bienvenue during the
    trial of Tracy Théberge, who was convicted of second-degree murder in
    death of her husband.

    According to the inquiry report, Bienvenue made offensive comments
    about Jewish victims of the Holocaust and about women while sentencing
    the accused.

    "It is said that when women ascend the scale of virtues, they reach
    higher than men, and I have always believed this. And it is also said,
    and this too I believe, that when they decide to degrade themselves,
    they sink to depths to which even the vilest man could not sink,"
    Bienvenue said.

    The judge also said: "At the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in
    Poland, which I once visited horror-stricken, even the Nazis did not
    eliminate millions of Jews in a painful or bloody manner. They died in
    the gas chambers, without suffering."

    During the inquiry, Bienvenue argued that he had not meant to be
    offensive and that he had met with the Canadian Jewish Congress. He
    also issued a statement apologizing to women offended by his remarks.

    On June 25, 1996, four out of five members of the Canadian Judicial
    Council committee recommended that Bienvenue be removed from office.
    They wrote, "We believe that if Mr. Justice Bienvenue were to preside
    over a case, a reasonable and informed person... would have a
    reasonable apprehension that the judge would not execute his office
    with the objectivity, impartiality and independence that the public is
    entitled to expect from a judge."

    Bienvenue resigned before the recommendation went to Parliament.

    What does the low number of removals mean?

    The rarity of judges removing their peers from the bench is a
    reflection of the value Canada places on an independent judiciary,
    said Trevor Farrow, a professor and associate dean at Osgoode Hall Law
    School in Toronto.

    "Judges don't recommend removal lightly," he said. "That's a good
    thing when you're balancing the requirement that judges have the
    courage and independence to make tough choices in often really
    challenging circumstances that involve vulnerable people."

    At the same time, Farrow said, it's important that the Canadian
    Judicial Council has "the power to recommend sanctions, including
    removal if warranted, to maintain the public's trust and confidence."

    Federal Court judge Robin Camp faces inquiry over sexual assault trial conduct
    7-day public hearing will determine if judge who referred to rape
    victim as 'the accused' can remain on bench
    By Meghan Grant, CBC News Posted: Aug 31, 2016 6:15 PM MT

    An inquiry begins Tuesday afternoon for a judge, formerly with Alberta
    provincial court, who is facing dismissal from the Federal Court over
    controversial comments directed at a sexual assault complainant in
    2014.

        Judge Robin Camp's 'insensitive, rude' comments not grounds for
    dismissal: lawyer

    The public hearing takes place before a panel of five — three superior
    court judges and two senior lawyers — over the next week-and-a-half at
    the Westin Hotel in downtown Calgary.

    "These are public hearings, they're open and they're transparent,"
    said Johanna Laporte with the Canadian Judicial Council (CJC).

    "The council recognizes that public confidence in the justice system
    can only be enhanced by these open proceedings and it's the council's
    mandate to ensure that serious matters involving judges are thoroughly
    investigated."

        Robin Camp, who berated sex assault complainant, says counselling
    will make him a better judge
        Inquiry into Judge Robin Camp to hear from advocates for sex assault victims

    Alberta Attorney General Kathleen Ganley forced the inquiry in January
    after a complaint made by two law professors at the University of
    Calgary and Dalhousie University.

    After opening remarks by presenting counsel and Camp's lawyer,
    intervenors — women's groups and sexual assault centres — will make
    submissions and finally, the panel will hear from Camp himself, who
    has previously indicated he plans to apologize.

    Panel members will then deliberate before releasing a decision —
    likely in written form — on whether or not Camp should remain on the
    bench at the Federal Court.

    "The inquiry is squarely tasked with determining if the facts
    surrounding the complaint are serious enough to warrant the judge's
    removal," said Laporte.
    'Why didn't you just sink your bottom down'

    During the 2014 trial, Camp asked the complainant "why couldn't you
    just keep your knees together" during her testimony in his role as an
    Alberta Provincial Court judge.

    The then 19-year-old woman alleged she was raped by Alexander Scott
    Wagar over a bathroom sink at a Calgary house party. Throughout the
    trial, Camp repeatedly referred to her as "the accused."

    "Why didn't you just sink your bottom down into the basin so he
    couldn't penetrate you?" Camp asked the woman.

    "That kind of comment goes back to the dinosaur age as far as I'm
    concerned," said Danielle Aubry with Calgary Communities Against
    Sexual Abuse.

    Camp acquitted Wagar, but the Alberta Court of Appeal overturned the
    ruling and ordered a new trial. By that time, Camp had been elevated
    to the Federal Court.

    "When you become a judge ... that's a privilege, it's a very high
    position," said Aubry.

    "It's incredulous to me that there are people sitting on the bench
    that are not educating themselves about issues like sexual violence."

    In ordering a new trial, the Court of Appeal wrote that the judge's
    comments raised doubts about his understanding of sexual assault laws.

    The Canadian Judicial Council received the initial complaint from four
    law professors at Dalhousie University and the University of Calgary.
    After that, dozens more flooded in.
    Gender and sensitivity training

    In his notice of response posted to the CJC website, Camp indicated
    that he agrees his comments were "insensitive and inappropriate," but
    says he has undergone gender and sensitivity training.

    Camp arranged and paid for his sensitivity training himself, during
    which he worked with a Superior Court judge, a psychologist and an
    expert on the law of sexual assault.

    He has indicated that he wishes to remain a judge.

    The council members include Justice Austin Cullen, who will act as
    chairperson, Justice Deborah Smith and Justice Raymond Whalen. The two
    senior lawyers, Karen Jensen and Cynthia Petersen, were appointed by
    the federal justice minister.

    Since the CJC was created in 1971, only two judges have been
    recommended for removal. but both ultimately resigned before
    Parliament, which has the final say, made its decision.

    Seven days have been set aside for the hearing but it is not expected
    to run its allotted time. On Tuesday, it starts at 2 p.m. MT. but will
    begin at 9 a.m. MT otherwise.



    Yea right tell me another one just like your former boss Landslide did.

    Tuesday, November 28, 2006

    OTTAWA — Anne McLellan has added her name to the list of former
    Liberal cabinet ministers who say they were not fully briefed by the
    RCMP on Maher Arar.

    McLellan was appointed public safety minister in December 2003 and,
    shortly thereafter, called a judicial inquiry into the case.

    This fall, Justice Dennis O'Connor concluded the RCMP passed
    inaccurate information to the United States on Arar that likely led to
    his detention and torture in Syria.

    On Tuesday, McLellan confirmed she was briefed on the "Arar situation"
    by RCMP Commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli and former CSIS director
    Ward Elcock.

    But she said she only learned that the RCMP had passed along false
    information on Arar to the U.S. when the O'Connor report was released
    in late September.

    The RCMP described Arar to U.S. authorities as an Islamic extremist
    suspected of ties to al-Qaida, even though he was never more than a
    "person of interest" in an RCMP national-security investigation.

    "In my presence, (neither) Commissioner Zaccardelli, nor anyone else,
    either from the RCMP or CSIS, (ever) referred to Mr. Arar as an
    Islamic extremist," McLellan told a Commons public safety committee
    that has been probing the Arar affair.

    "That was an expression that was never used in relation to Mr. Arar in
    my presence. Ever."

    McLellan's statements appear to contradict assertions by Zaccardelli
    that he briefed the government about the mistakes by the RCMP.

    In an appearance before the same committee in late September,
    Zaccardelli said he informed former solicitor general Wayne Easter
    about the errors. The solicitor general was the minister in charge of
    the RCMP before the position was abolished last year.

    But last month, Easter testified that he was never so informed.

    "There is no situation where the RCMP came to me and basically said,
    'We screwed up. We provided improper information,’” he said at the
    time.

    Earlier this month, Elcock of CSIS also testified he did not learn of
    the RCMP's mislabeling of Arar until after the O'Connor report was
    released.

    On Tuesday, McLellan described an environment in which concern about
    the Arar affair reached to the top of the political ladder.

    She said that soon after former prime minister Paul Martin took office
    in December 2003, he asked her to "get to the bottom of what had
    happened to Mr. Arar."

    Ottawa Citizen


    That was what Landslide Annie had to say about the RCMP before Dion
    was picked as leader of the liberals aweek or so ago. Ask me what I
    sent Wayne Easter as Paul Martin was being crowned as Humpty Dumpty
    three years ago. Clearly I sent something EH?

    Mr. David R. Amos
    153 Alvin Avenue
    Milton, MA 02186

    Merry Xmas AJ?
    Bah Humbug. Liar, liar panties on fire, your parting wish proves that
    you must have read something of mine. However I had a pretty good idea
    that you would not read the latests email I sent ya so I played you
    like a fiddle again. It seems that your porch lights are on but nobody
    is home. EH? Perhaps you should read it now real slow or have your
    lawyer explain it to you. .
    I must thank you for being so dumb. It was not wise for you to bounce
    it back to me in its entirety without reading it first. You proved for
    me what the smiling bastards debating once again in BC tonight have
    received today. As they no doubt go about pounding on their chests
    bout their personal integrity and honesty please allow me to add a few
    more gleaned from your buddies' online news outfit and on top of what
    you bounced back to further prove that not only do the political
    leaders understand the Canadian Charter neither do our public
    servants.
    In closing I must say you are far too boring to read for long and not
    near as funny as your buddy the self described "Fibber". Methinks that
    boy is still stuck in Wonderland. I would be willing to lay odds that
    he is Halifax Dead in the Water's webmaster of Disaster.What say you
    Herr Frank Streicher of 25562 Bloomfield St Halifax, NS B3K 1S9 or has
    the Cheshire Cat got your tongue too?
    To be fair to Halifax Dead in the Water I will insert your buddies's
    online news report about the debate last night and then add a couple
    of email exchanges between me and some very fancy public servants who
    failed to uphold my rights under the Charter. Integrity at its finest.
    EH? Go ask Shirley Heafey why she quit. she is alot like Alice the Mad
    Hatter in me confused her out of the gate. So she quit and took her
    toys home. I am chasing Mr. Kennedy's nasty arse now.To me all
    politicians and their appointed underlings look like a bunch of pigs
    at the trough. I see are a bunch very nasty arses. I know what I must
    do with my boot.
    Veritas Vincit
    David Raymond Amos

    P.S. The Fibber will find this funny. It appears that some
    politician's computers know
    more integrity than their owners or AJ EH?

    Martin Demands That Harper Must Come Clean on Notwithstanding Clause
    by LPC Friday, 16 December 2005
    Prime Minister Paul Martin demanded Conservative Leader Stephen Harper
    come clean that he intends to use the notwithstanding clause to
    overturn the Charter right to same-sex marriage.

    Mr. Harper said during tonight’s leader’s debate in Vancouver on the
    topic of abolishing same-sex marriage: "I will never use the
    notwithstanding clause on that issue."

    Prime Minister Martin asked that he be honest with the Canadian people
    regarding his intention to override a Charter right.
    "We're talking about integrity. That means being honest. Either Mr.
    Harper is going to try to change the law of the country that protects
    the rights and freedoms of gays and lesbians or he's not going to,"
    said Prime Minister Martin.

    "If he's going to use the notwithstanding clause, he should say so,
    and the people will at least know what his position is."
    The Prime Minister said Mr. Harper’s proposal would require the use of
    the notwithstanding clause because it is not possible to have a vote
    in the house that will overrule the Constitution and the courts
    without using the notwithstanding clause.

    This is borne out by a January 25 open letter from more than 100 legal
    experts from across Canada to Mr. Harper regarding same-sex marriage
    legislation.

    Mr. Martin called on Mr. Harper to be "honest."

    He made clear that the Liberal government does not believe that you
    can pick and choose which Charter rights you will protect and he
    affirmed that he will respect the Charter as a whole.

    Hey Lady
    I very tired of the double talk of mandates etc. that you public
    servants employ to duck doing your job. Perhaps you should have a long
    talk with all those within your Dept that assisted the Yankees in my
    false imprisonment last year. Methinks the right one to start with
    would be Josie Macguire in Beantown. Don't you?

    No need to Bitch.
    I am about to sue ya anyway but you did receive the same material that
    everybody else got by email anyway. However now I will now forward the
    other emails that various silly servants got after I had had many
    talks with your incompetant and malicious assistants within the
    Commission over the past two years. It seems that I had to insult you
    and bust you in front of your friends to finally get a response from
    you.
    Furthermore on August 2nd I sent you your material byway of the US
    Mail which was received and signed for. It was hard copy of my
    concerns and allegations about you being in bed with the corrupt old
    bastard Zack of the RCMP. I also sent a copy of wiretap tape # 139.
    Instead of you acting within the scope of your employment you go on
    vacation and bury your head in the sand while the RCMP assisted the
    Yankees in throwing my wife and kids into the street without due
    process of law?
    Well your head may be in still the sand but you just stuck your arse
    high up in the air. It is high time for me to give it a boot before
    you stick it up Zack's ass in a vain effort to appear that you have
    integrity after all. The following is the text of that letter and
    after that is the US Mail's confirmation of when it was sent and
    received by you.
    Say hey to McLachlin for me will ya? Tell her I will be suing her too.
    She has been covering up for the crooked Newfy Judge Dereck Green for
    way past too long. To hell with lawyers appointed as commissioners and
    other lawyers appointed as judges. From my point of view they were
    only appointed to cover up public corruption. I look forward to
    meeting the likes of you in court and arguing you on the public
    record. You just proved for me that most lawyers ain't that smart. You
    should have continued to play dumb Bitch. At least then you could have
    blamed your assistants for not telling you what you obviously know.
    however if you had done so, I would have pointed to the fact that you
    are their supervisor and therefore ultimatly responsible. Everybody
    else knows that the RCMP are as crooked as hell, so do you. call me a
    liar now. I double dog dare ya.

    Right Honourable Beverley McLachlin, Shirley Heafey Chair of Commission
    C/o Norman Sabourin General Counsel and for Public Complaints against the RCMP
    Andrew Grant and Renée Maria Tremblay P.O. Box 3423 Station "D"
    Canadian Judicial Council Ottawa, ON K1P 6L4
    150 Metcalfe Street,
    Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0W8

    RE: Rampant Public Corruption

    Hey,
    Pursuant to my recent phone calls to Norman Sabourin and various
    underlings of Shirley Heafey within the Commission for Public
    Complaints against the RCMP over the years plus my many faxes and
    emails please find enclosed exactly the same material received by
    every Attorney General in Canada over the past year. The CD which is a
    copy of a police surveillance wiretap tape # 139 is served upon you as
    officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated.
    As you can see I have enclosed a copy of a letter sent to the latest
    Attorney General Mr. Wally Opal in BC. Perhaps he should take a little
    trip to Surrey and ask your office some hard questions. Perhaps the
    ghost of my fellow Independent politician, Chuck Cadman may wish to
    answer few questions now as well. Hard telling not knowing.
    I will not bother you with the details of what I am sending to you
    byway of the certified US Mail because I will be serving identical
    material to many other Canadian Authorities in hand and tell them I
    gave this stuff to you first and enclose a copy of this letter. All
    that is important to me right now is that I secure proof that this
    mail was sent before I make my way back home to the Maritimes. However
    I will say I am also enclosing a great deal more material than what
    Allan Rock had received in the UN. Some of it is in fact the same
    material the two maritime lawyers, Rob Moore and Franky Boy McKenna in
    particular received, while I was up home running for Parliament last
    year. Things have changed greatly in the past year so I have also
    included a few recent items to spice thing up for you. I am tired of
    trying to convince people employed in law enforcement to uphold the
    law. So all I will say for now is deal will your own conscience and be
    careful how you respond to this letter. If you do not respond. Rest
    assured I will do my best to sue you some day. Ignorance is no excuse
    to the law or me.

    CSIS can never say they didn't know. This should put Shirley Heafey's

    Lawyer for Pastor James Coates: “No evidence” Alberta health orders
    serve public safety, says John Carpay

        By Rebel News | March 05, 2021


    Pastor James Coates of GraceLife Church has been held in custody at
    the Edmonton Remand Centre for nearly two weeks. This morning, after
    finding out that the pastor's bail hearing was denied, Ezra Levant
    invited lawyer John Carpay of the Justice Centre for Constitutional
    Freedoms on to our Rebel News Daily livestream to discuss the case.

    Make sure to watch the full video, but here's some of what John had to
    say about the ongoing legal difficulties faced by an Alberta religious
    leader arrested for refusing to shut down his church and turn
    believers away:

        “The silver lining on that cloud is that, because of the suffering
    of Pastor Coates, the government's going to be forced to show the
    public the science, the evidence [for lockdowns] for the first time
    ever.

        “Because all we've had in the last twelve months is fear-mongering
    and speculation and assertions, and the government doesn't have the
    evidence... they're going to have to scramble hard in the next two
    months to come up with it.”

    When asked about the type of charges laid against the pastor, John responded:

        “My understanding is that Pastor Coates would not go to prison,
    unless he was found in contempt of court. And if so, the Alberta
    government sought a specific injunction against GraceLife Church in
    Edmonton... and was successful -- if there was specific court
    injunction against that church, and if Pastor Coates or other members
    of that church... defied the injunction, they could be found to be in
    contempt of court.

        “...my understanding is that there's no jail time for that.”

    Pastor James Coates of GraceLife Church will remain in prison until May.

    tyrannical COVID enforcement Pastor James and his church are facing at

     Religion vs. State Day 2: should churches in B.C. really be closed?

        By Drea Humphrey | March 05, 2021


    Should churches really be closed in BC?

    On Tuesday, I went back to the Vancouver courts to report on the
    second day of a Supreme Court of British Columbia hearing, where Chief
    Justice Christopher Hinkson is set to rule on a legal challenge that
    was filed by the the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms. The
    JCCF is challenging the B.C. government's restrictions against
    peaceful protests and in-person worship services.

    On day one of the hearing, there were many pastors and protesters
    outside of the courthouse, speaking out about why in desperate times
    like these, churches desperately need to be open. Zoom services just
    don't cut it for everyone.

    This got me wondering, what does the average Vancouverite feel about
    Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry’s decision to ban in-person
    worship services, while keeping nearly everything else open, including
    pubs like St. James Well, which was recently linked to over 300
    COVID-19 cases? Also, do they believe people should be able to
    exercise their right to peacefully protest during life with COVID-19?
    And if they do agree with most of the COVID-19 restrictions placed on
    the people, exactly how long do they believe society should have to
    follow such restrictions?

    So many questions, and day two of this hearing was the perfect place
    to ask them, across the street from the courthouse. Passerby couldn’t
    help but look in the direction of the courthouse, as there were two
    types of demonstrations occurring outside of it. While one was there
    to gather for an outdoor church service in protest for freedom of
    religion, the two groups shared a common cause over the right to
    protest. That’s because the second group was gathering in protest
    while inside, Stacy Gallagher, an Indigenous opponent of the Trans
    Mountain pipeline, was sentenced to 90 days in prison after being
    convicted of criminal contempt for her mobilization against the
    pipeline.

    MORE SUCCESS: Calgary street church pastor has mask bylaw tickets thrown out


        By Sheila Gunn Reid | March 04, 2021

    Today I have another FightTheFines.com victory to report, this one in
    the ongoing saga of Calgary Street Church Pastor Artur Pawlowski.

    Rebel News viewers may recognize Art as one of our very first
    www.FightTheFines.com cases. He had been fined $1,200 for supposedly
    breaching the lockdown. In reality, he was helping feed downtown
    Calgary's homeless population, something Art does as part of his
    ministry to those who need it the most.

    We hired a lawyer to help Art, and police ended up dropping that
    ridiculous fine. But then the lockdown returned, and so did the
    systemic crackdown on Art's outreach to hungry and homeless. Art and
    his brother were charged with organizing a protest, for violating
    orders on outdoor gatherings — I guess that's what we call feeding the
    hungry these days. They were also charged for not wearing a mask while
    distributing food to the homeless, even though Art and his brother
    were both outside, where you don't have to wear a mask.

    Art's been a long time critic of Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi, and it
    looked like city officials were taking out their petty grievances on
    Art and using their new coronavirus ticket books to do it.

    The top-notch lawyer we hired for Art who got those first fines thrown
    out, Sarah Miller, now has another win for Art: she was able to have
    the mask violation fines tossed out. However, Sarah's work isn't even
    close to done. Art isn't going to stop feeding the homeless, and it
    appears the City of Calgary isn't going to stop ticketing him for
    doing it. Because of this, the fines are piling up, and so is Sarah's
    work to fight for her client.

    If you'd like to help us secure more wins for Art and other Canadians
    with coronavirus fines as we fight for civil liberties, one lockdown
    ticket at a time, please donate today at www.FightTheFines.com.

    Judge rules Edmonton pastor will remain in jail until his trial in May

    By Terry Haig |
    english@rcinet.ca
    Posted: Friday, March 5, 2021 13:45     

    An Alberta pastor who has clashed for months with provincial health
    authorities over COVID-19 restrictions will remain in jail until he
    goes to trial in May because he refuses to follow a bail condition
    that requires he comply with public health orders.

    The pastor, James Coates of the GraceLife Church in Parkland County
    west of Edmonton, has been in jail for over two weeks and was
    appealing his bail conditions.

    After hearing arguments yesterday from Coates’s lawyers, Court of
    Queen’s Bench Justice Peter Michalyshyn dismissed the bail review this
    morning.

    Coates is charged with violating Alberta’s Public Health Act and with
    breaking a promise to abide by conditions of his bail release, which
    is a Criminal Code offence.

    Coates was arrested for holding Sunday services in violation of
    COVID-19 rules. (THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jason Franson)

    His lawyer, James Kitchen, told the court Thursday that Coates can’t
    follow a bail condition that forbids him from holding services because
    that would violate his conscience by disobeying God.

    “This is a matter of deep-seeded personal conscience and religious
    beliefs for Pastor Coates,” Kitchen said.

    “He is unable to disobey the God he believes in. He is compelled to
    obey … as [are] his congregants.”

    The prosecution argued that Coates’s release would be a danger to the public.

    Outside the courthouse, dozens of Coates’s supporters gathered–many of
    them not wearing face masks–and more than 350 attended the hearing via
    the court’s web conferencing software.

    Some failed to mute their microphones, leading to frequent disruptions.

    Supporters rallied outside court yesterday as lawyers for James Coates
    appealed his bail conditions. (THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jason Franson)

    Coates turned himself in to police on Feb. 16 and was charged with two
    counts in contravention of the Public Health Act and charged for
    failing to comply with a condition of his undertaking.

    He refused release, saying he could not abide by the conditions.

    Prior to his detention, his Sunday services were drawing up to 300
    members, and in early February Coates was charged for a second time
    for breaking the rules.

    He was fined in December and Alberta Health Services ordered the
    church to close in January, but Coates ignored the orders.

    The church has continued to hold services, even though Coates is in custody.

    Alberta court jails Pastor Coates through to May 3-5 trial

    Mar 5th, 2021

    EDMONTON: The Justice Centre is very disappointed to announce that
    Justice Peter Michalyshyn of the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench in
    Edmonton has ruled that Pastor James Coates of Grace Life Church must
    remain in jail for the next eight weeks pending his trial, unless he
    agrees to abide by health orders that violate his Charter freedoms of
    conscience, religion, expression, association and peaceful assembly.

    Pastor Coates has been in custody at the Edmonton Remand Centre since
    February 16, after he refused to sign a bail condition to comply with
    provincial health orders that violate his Charter freedoms of
    conscience, religion, expression, association and peaceful assembly.

    The Justice Centre filed an appeal in the Alberta Court of Queen’s
    Bench, to seek the release of Pastor Coates from jail prior to a trial
    date set for May 3-5, 2021, in Alberta Provincial Court in Stony
    Plain. The Justice Centre represents Pastor Coates and Grace Life
    Church, a large church just west of Edmonton. Alberta Health Services
    (AHS) ticketed Pastor Coates, taken Grace Life and Pastor Coates to
    court, and even attempted to completely shut the Church down.
    Background information on Pastor Coates’ ordeal is available here.

    “A trial set eight weeks down the road was too long for an innocent
    Pastor to be in jail. Pastor Coates is a peaceful Christian minister.
    He should never have been required to violate his conscience and
    effectively stop pastoring his church as a condition to be released.
    In every way this was a violation of Pastor Coates’ Charter rights and
    freedoms,” states lawyer John Carpay, president of the Justice Centre.

    “Charter freedoms do not disappear because the government declares
    regular church services to be outlawed while allowing hundreds of
    people to fill their local Walmarts,” notes Carpay.

    Who is Pat King? Probably half of Alberta and all of Red Deer know him
    by now, and probably remember watching this video “This is going to
    happen very soon, and if you are going to come into my rural
    communities, I am going to be this big guy in the White Shirt,
    ready..” and shows a video of what it appears to be an ANTIFA

    Alberta pastor charged with violating Public Health Act, still in
    custody for refusing conditions: RCMP

    EDMONTON -- A pastor west of Edmonton remains in custody Wednesday
    after he was charged with breaking Alberta's Public Health Act and
    refusing to agree to the conditions of his release, RCMP said.

    James Coates turned himself in to police on Tuesday, two days after a
    service Alberta Health Services and RCMP attended where he "was not
    complying with his Undertaking release conditions" issued a week
    earlier, police said.

    The pastor was charged with two counts of contravention of the Public
    Health Act and failing to comply with a condition of his undertaking.

    Coates attended a bail hearing Tuesday and was to be released on
    conditions, but was kept in custody overnight "after refusing to agree
    to those conditions," RCMP said.

    Those conditions, his lawyer told CTV News, include stopping church
    services, but "Coates could not, in good conscience, agree to that
    condition."

    The pastor made a court appearance on Wednesday and was given a second
    court appearance for next Wednesday after he continued to refuse to
    agree to the conditions, Mounties added.

    “We’ve been consistent in our approach of escalated levels of
    enforcement with Pastor Coates, and we were hopeful to resolve this
    issue in a different manner,” said RCMP Insp. Mike Lokken. “The
    Pastor’s actions, and the subsequent effects those actions could have
    on the health and safety of citizens, dictated our response in this
    situation.”

    On Tuesday, Coates' lawyer told CTV News his client was willing to go
    to jail in order to do the "right thing."

    "His first obedience is to his Lord, is to his God. And normally,
    obeying Jesus and obeying the government go right in hand," James
    Kitchen said. "The government's forcing him in to a position where he
    has to choose between disobeying God and obeying government, or
    obeying God and disobeying government."

    GraceLife was first cited for hosting more than 15 per cent of its
    capacity at a December service and the pastor was fined $1,200.

    A Court of Queen's Bench order was issued in January when it continued
    to break COVID-19 restrictions.

    GraceLife has held services for three consecutive weeks after it was
    ordered to close at the end of January.

    The church was not in compliance with the Public Health Act last
    Sunday, RCMP said Wednesday.

    A day earlier in a statement, GraceLife said: "We do not see our
    actions as perpetuating the longevity of COVID-19 or any other virus
    that will inevitably come along. If anything, we see our actions as
    contributing to its end – the end of destructive lockdowns and the end
    of the attempt to institutionalize the debilitating fear of viral
    infections. Our local church is clear evidence that governmental
    lockdowns are unnecessary. In fact, it is also evidence of how harmful
    they are."

    Criminal lawyer Tom Engel says the RCMP should shut down the church
    and charge everyone in attendance.

    "Every person who is in that church knows that they are breaking the
    law," he said.

    'UNCOMMONLY GOOD' RELATIONSHIP WITH RCMP: KITCHEN

    Coates' lawyer told CTV News GraceLife has an "uncommonly good"
    relationship with the RCMP because "the police have acted, in this
    case, very differently than how they have acted with a lot of other
    people."

    Complicating Kitchen's claim is the fact that a retired Mountie, Paul
    Claassen, is GraceLife's chair.

    "It leads to the impression that there's a double standard, there's a
    bias in favour of this church," Engel said.

    But in a statement, Insp. Lokken said: "Our response to the non
    compliance of the Church has been consistent with our overall RCMP
    strategy in the Province which is; education, an opportunity for
    compliance, and lastly, enforcement. Parkland RCMP has managed the
    investigation into the GraceLife Church with absolutely no influence
    from any member of their administration or congregation, regardless of
    any past or present affiliation with our organization.

    "The RCMP has conducted all their interactions with the Church in an
    impartial, professional, and respectful manner.”

     Hey,

          Pursuant to my recent phone calls to Norman Sabourin and various
    underlings of Shirley Heafey within the Commission for Public
    Complaints against the RCMP over the years plus my many faxes and
    emails please find enclosed exactly the same material received by
    every Attorney General in Canada over the past year. The CD which is a
    copy of a police surveillance wiretap tape # 139 is served upon you as
    officers of the court in order that it may be properly investigated.
    As you can see I have enclosed a copy of a letter sent to the latest
    Attorney General Mr. Wally Opal in BC. Perhaps he should take a little
    trip to Surrey and ask your office some hard questions. Perhaps the
    ghost of my fellow Independent politician, Chuck Cadman may wish to
    answer few questions now as well. Hard telling not knowing.

          I will not bother you with the details of what I am sending to
    you byway of the certified US Mail because I will be serving identical
    material to many other Canadian Authorities in hand and tell them I
    gave this stuff to you first and enclose a copy of this letter. All
    that is important to me right now is that I secure proof that this
    mail was sent before I make my way back home to the Maritimes. However
    I will say I am also enclosing a great deal more material than what
    Allan Rock had received in the UN. Some of it is in fact the same
    material the two maritime lawyers, Rob Moore and Franky Boy McKenna in
    particular received, while I was up home running for Parliament last
    year. Things have changed greatly in the past year so I have also
    included a few recent items to spice thing up for you. I am tired of
    trying to convince people employed in law enforcement to uphold the
    law. So all I will say for now is deal will your own conscience and be
    careful how you respond to this letter. If you do not respond. Rest
    assured I will do my best to sue you some day. Ignorance is no excuse
    to the law or me.

    Robin Camp case: What does it take to remove a judge from the bench?
    Only two federally appointed judges recommended for dismissal since 1971

    By Nicole Ireland, CBC News Posted: Nov 12, 2015 5:00 AM ET

    The case of a judge who asked a woman, "Why couldn't you just keep
    your knees together?" during an Alberta sexual assault trial is
    raising questions about what kind of behaviour warrants removing a
    justice from the bench.

        Judge under review for berating sex assault complainant
        Read the complaint against Justice Robin Camp

    Only two judges have been recommended for removal by the Canadian
    Judicial Council — a group of federally appointed judges tasked with
    investigating complaints about their peers — since it was created in
    1971.
    Trevor Farrow

    Trevor Farrow, associate dean at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto,
    says it's 'a good thing' that judges don't lightly recommend
    dismissing their peers. (Osgoode Hall Law School)

    In both cases, the judges resigned before the recommendations made it
    to Parliament, which ultimately decides whether or not to dismiss a
    Canadian judge.

    On Monday, the judicial council announced it was reviewing the conduct
    of Robin Camp while he was an Alberta provincial court judge in 2014,
    when he presided over a case involving a 19-year-old woman who alleged
    she was sexually assaulted by a Calgary man during a house party.

    According to the complaint that prompted the review, in addition to
    the "keep your knees together" comment, Camp asked during the trial,
    "Why didn't you just sink your bottom down into the basin so he
    couldn't penetrate you?" (The woman alleged she was sexually assaulted
    over a sink).

    "At numerous points during the proceeding, Justice Camp was dismissive
    of, if not contemptuous towards, the substantive law of sexual assault
    and the rules of evidence," the complaint said. "In particular, he
    showed disregard, if not disdain, for the rape shield provisions under
    the Criminal Code, the legal definition of consent to sexual touching,
    and the Criminal Code provision and case law regarding the doctrine of
    recent complaint.

    "His articulated disrespect for these legal rules was, in some
    instances, combined with a refusal to apply them."

    The Canadian Judicial Council must decide whether the complaint
    against Camp, now a Federal Court judge, has merit and, if so, whether
    it warrants the establishment of a review panel that could call a
    public inquiry.

    In the last four decades, the judicial council has ordered public
    inquiries for 11 complaints against judges. Two of those inquiries are
    still ongoing. In some cases, the judge resigned before the inquiry
    was complete. For example, the late Judge Robert Flahiff was convicted
    in 1999 for laundering money for a drug dealer back in the 1980s,
    before he became a judge. He resigned before the judicial council
    finished its inquiry.

        Convicted Quebec judge resigns

    In other cases, the council recommended that the judges involved not
    be removed from the bench — even if there had been inappropriate
    conduct.

    "It's not a fait accompli that if you have engaged in some kind of
    misconduct you should be removed from office," said Norman Sabourin,
    the Canadian Judicial Council's executive director, in an interview
    with CBC News on Tuesday. "Assessing the gravity of a misconduct is a
    difficult exercise."

    The overarching question in making that determination, the council
    said, is whether the judge has the required confidence of the public
    to continue to preside in court.

    So when has the council recommended that a judge be removed? Here are
    the two cases in which that happened. The details come from documents
    available on the Canadian Judicial Council's website:

    Paul Cosgrove, Ontario Superior Court

    On April 22, 2004, Ontario's attorney general at the time, Michael
    Bryant, asked the council to consider whether Judge Paul Cosgrove
    should be removed from office based on his conduct in the murder trial
    of Julia Yvonne Elliott.

    The attorney general said Cosgrove had ordered an "unwarranted stay"
    of proceedings.

        Ontario judge resigns over misconduct

    "The proceedings tarnished the administration of justice and turned
    into an exercise of vilifying the state built on irrelevant,
    inappropriate and harmful findings," Bryant wrote. "The proceedings
    trivialized the charter and deprived society and the victim's family
    of any semblance of justice."

    The attorney general's complaint alleged that Cosgrove had
    demonstrated similar behaviour in other court cases, citing Court of
    Appeal findings that the judge had "reduced the proceedings to a
    'procedural nightmare' for the Crown" and shown a "suspicious attitude
    toward the government that caused him to misapprehend some of the
    evidence before him."

    On March 30, 2009, after a public inquiry, the Canadian Judicial
    Council recommended that Cosgrove be removed from office. The judge
    resigned the following month.

    Jean Bienvenue, Superior Court of Quebec

    In December 1995, the then attorneys general of Quebec and Canada,
    Paul Bégin and Allan Rock, asked the Canadian Judicial Council for a
    public inquiry into the conduct of Judge Jean Bienvenue during the
    trial of Tracy Théberge, who was convicted of second-degree murder in
    death of her husband.

    According to the inquiry report, Bienvenue made offensive comments
    about Jewish victims of the Holocaust and about women while sentencing
    the accused.

    "It is said that when women ascend the scale of virtues, they reach
    higher than men, and I have always believed this. And it is also said,
    and this too I believe, that when they decide to degrade themselves,
    they sink to depths to which even the vilest man could not sink,"
    Bienvenue said.

    The judge also said: "At the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in
    Poland, which I once visited horror-stricken, even the Nazis did not
    eliminate millions of Jews in a painful or bloody manner. They died in
    the gas chambers, without suffering."

    During the inquiry, Bienvenue argued that he had not meant to be
    offensive and that he had met with the Canadian Jewish Congress. He
    also issued a statement apologizing to women offended by his remarks.

    On June 25, 1996, four out of five members of the Canadian Judicial
    Council committee recommended that Bienvenue be removed from office.
    They wrote, "We believe that if Mr. Justice Bienvenue were to preside
    over a case, a reasonable and informed person... would have a
    reasonable apprehension that the judge would not execute his office
    with the objectivity, impartiality and independence that the public is
    entitled to expect from a judge."

    Bienvenue resigned before the recommendation went to Parliament.

    What does the low number of removals mean?

    The rarity of judges removing their peers from the bench is a
    reflection of the value Canada places on an independent judiciary,
    said Trevor Farrow, a professor and associate dean at Osgoode Hall Law
    School in Toronto.

    "Judges don't recommend removal lightly," he said. "That's a good
    thing when you're balancing the requirement that judges have the
    courage and independence to make tough choices in often really
    challenging circumstances that involve vulnerable people."

    At the same time, Farrow said, it's important that the Canadian
    Judicial Council has "the power to recommend sanctions, including
    removal if warranted, to maintain the public's trust and confidence."

    Federal Court judge Robin Camp faces inquiry over sexual assault trial conduct
    7-day public hearing will determine if judge who referred to rape
    victim as 'the accused' can remain on bench
    By Meghan Grant, CBC News Posted: Aug 31, 2016 6:15 PM MT

    An inquiry begins Tuesday afternoon for a judge, formerly with Alberta
    provincial court, who is facing dismissal from the Federal Court over
    controversial comments directed at a sexual assault complainant in
    2014.

        Judge Robin Camp's 'insensitive, rude' comments not grounds for
    dismissal: lawyer

    The public hearing takes place before a panel of five — three superior
    court judges and two senior lawyers — over the next week-and-a-half at
    the Westin Hotel in downtown Calgary.

    "These are public hearings, they're open and they're transparent,"
    said Johanna Laporte with the Canadian Judicial Council (CJC).

    "The council recognizes that public confidence in the justice system
    can only be enhanced by these open proceedings and it's the council's
    mandate to ensure that serious matters involving judges are thoroughly
    investigated."

        Robin Camp, who berated sex assault complainant, says counselling
    will make him a better judge
        Inquiry into Judge Robin Camp to hear from advocates for sex assault victims

    Alberta Attorney General Kathleen Ganley forced the inquiry in January
    after a complaint made by two law professors at the University of
    Calgary and Dalhousie University.

    After opening remarks by presenting counsel and Camp's lawyer,
    intervenors — women's groups and sexual assault centres — will make
    submissions and finally, the panel will hear from Camp himself, who
    has previously indicated he plans to apologize.

    Panel members will then deliberate before releasing a decision —
    likely in written form — on whether or not Camp should remain on the
    bench at the Federal Court.

    "The inquiry is squarely tasked with determining if the facts
    surrounding the complaint are serious enough to warrant the judge's
    removal," said Laporte.
    'Why didn't you just sink your bottom down'

    During the 2014 trial, Camp asked the complainant "why couldn't you
    just keep your knees together" during her testimony in his role as an
    Alberta Provincial Court judge.

    The then 19-year-old woman alleged she was raped by Alexander Scott
    Wagar over a bathroom sink at a Calgary house party. Throughout the
    trial, Camp repeatedly referred to her as "the accused."

    "Why didn't you just sink your bottom down into the basin so he
    couldn't penetrate you?" Camp asked the woman.

    "That kind of comment goes back to the dinosaur age as far as I'm
    concerned," said Danielle Aubry with Calgary Communities Against
    Sexual Abuse.

    Camp acquitted Wagar, but the Alberta Court of Appeal overturned the
    ruling and ordered a new trial. By that time, Camp had been elevated
    to the Federal Court.

    "When you become a judge ... that's a privilege, it's a very high
    position," said Aubry.

    "It's incredulous to me that there are people sitting on the bench
    that are not educating themselves about issues like sexual violence."

    In ordering a new trial, the Court of Appeal wrote that the judge's
    comments raised doubts about his understanding of sexual assault laws.

    The Canadian Judicial Council received the initial complaint from four
    law professors at Dalhousie University and the University of Calgary.
    After that, dozens more flooded in.
    Gender and sensitivity training

    In his notice of response posted to the CJC website, Camp indicated
    that he agrees his comments were "insensitive and inappropriate," but
    says he has undergone gender and sensitivity training.

    Camp arranged and paid for his sensitivity training himself, during
    which he worked with a Superior Court judge, a psychologist and an
    expert on the law of sexual assault.

    He has indicated that he wishes to remain a judge.

    The council members include Justice Austin Cullen, who will act as
    chairperson, Justice Deborah Smith and Justice Raymond Whalen. The two
    senior lawyers, Karen Jensen and Cynthia Petersen, were appointed by
    the federal justice minister.

    Since the CJC was created in 1971, only two judges have been
    recommended for removal. but both ultimately resigned before
    Parliament, which has the final say, made its decision.

    Seven days have been set aside for the hearing but it is not expected
    to run its allotted time. On Tuesday, it starts at 2 p.m. MT. but will
    begin at 9 a.m. MT otherwise.

    Liberal cabinet ministers who say they were not fully briefed by the
    RCMP on Maher Arar.

    McLellan was appointed public safety minister in December 2003 and,
    shortly thereafter, called a judicial inquiry into the case.

    This fall, Justice Dennis O'Connor concluded the RCMP passed
    inaccurate information to the United States on Arar that likely led to
    his detention and torture in Syria.

    On Tuesday, McLellan confirmed she was briefed on the "Arar situation"
    by RCMP Commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli and former CSIS director
    Ward Elcock.

    But she said she only learned that the RCMP had passed along false
    information on Arar to the U.S. when the O'Connor report was released
    in late September.

    The RCMP described Arar to U.S. authorities as an Islamic extremist
    suspected of ties to al-Qaida, even though he was never more than a
    "person of interest" in an RCMP national-security investigation.

    "In my presence, (neither) Commissioner Zaccardelli, nor anyone else,
    either from the RCMP or CSIS, (ever) referred to Mr. Arar as an
    Islamic extremist," McLellan told a Commons public safety committee
    that has been probing the Arar affair.

    "That was an expression that was never used in relation to Mr. Arar in
    my presence. Ever."

    McLellan's statements appear to contradict assertions by Zaccardelli
    that he briefed the government about the mistakes by the RCMP.

    In an appearance before the same committee in late September,
    Zaccardelli said he informed former solicitor general Wayne Easter
    about the errors. The solicitor general was the minister in charge of
    the RCMP before the position was abolished last year.

    But last month, Easter testified that he was never so informed.

    "There is no situation where the RCMP came to me and basically said,
    'We screwed up. We provided improper information,’” he said at the
    time.

    Earlier this month, Elcock of CSIS also testified he did not learn of
    the RCMP's mislabeling of Arar until after the O'Connor report was
    released.

    On Tuesday, McLellan described an environment in which concern about
    the Arar affair reached to the top of the political ladder.

    She said that soon after former prime minister Paul Martin took office
    in December 2003, he asked her to "get to the bottom of what had
    happened to Mr. Arar."

    Ottawa Citizen


    That was what Landslide Annie had to say about the RCMP before Dion
    was picked as leader of the liberals aweek or so ago. Ask me what I
    sent Wayne Easter as Paul Martin was being crowned as Humpty Dumpty
    three years ago. Clearly I sent something EH?

    Mr. David R. Amos
    153 Alvin Avenue
    Milton, MA 02186
    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

    Raising a Little Hell- Lively Debate Provokes Crowd

    By Erin Hatfield

    "If you don't like what you got, why don't you change it? If your
    world is all screwed up, rearrange it."

    The 1979 Trooper song Raise a Little Hell blared on the speakers at
    the 8th Hussars Sports Center Friday evening as people filed in to
    watch the Fundy candidates debate the issues. It was an accurate, if
    unofficial, theme song for the debate.

    The crowd of over 200 spectators was dwarfed by the huge arena, but as
    they chose their seats, it was clear the battle lines were drawn.
    Supporters of Conservative candidate Rob Moore naturally took the blue
    chairs on the right of the rink floor while John Herron's Liberalswent
    left. There were splashes of orange, supporters of NDP Pat Hanratty,
    mixed throughout. Perhaps the loudest applause came from a row towards
    the back, where supporters of independent candidate David Amos sat.

    The debate was moderated by Leo Melanson of CJCW Radio and was
    organized by the Sussex Valley Jaycees. Candidates wereasked a barrage
    of questions bypanelists Gisele McKnight of the Kings County Record
    and Lisa Spencer of CJCW.

    Staying true to party platforms for the most part, candidates
    responded to questions about the gun registry, same sex marriage, the
    exodus of young people from the Maritimes and regulated gas prices.
    Herron and Moore were clear competitors,constantly challenging each
    other on their answers and criticizing eachothers’ party leaders.
    Hanratty flew under the radar, giving short, concise responses to the
    questions while Amos provided some food for thought and a bit of comic
    relief with quirky answers. "I was raised with a gun," Amos said in
    response to the question of thenational gun registry. "Nobody's
    getting mine and I'm not paying 10 cents for it."

    Herron, a Progressive Conservative MP turned Liberal, veered from his
    party'splatform with regard to gun control. "It was ill advised but
    well intentioned," Herron said. "No matter what side of the house I am
    on, I'm voting against it." Pat Hanratty agreed there were better
    places for the gun registry dollars to be spent.Recreational hunters
    shouldn't have been penalized by this gun registry," he said.

    The gun registry issues provoked the tempers of Herron and Moore. At
    one point Herron got out of his seat and threw a piece of paper in
    front of Moore. "Read that," Herron said to Moore, referring to the
    voting record of Conservative Party leader Steven Harper. According to
    Herron, Harper voted in favour of the registry on the first and second
    readings of the bill in 1995. "He voted against it when it counted, at
    final count," Moore said. "We needa government with courage to
    register sex offenders rather than register the property of law
    abiding citizens."

    The crowd was vocal throughout the evening, with white haired men and
    women heckling from the Conservative side. "Shut up John," one woman
    yelled. "How can you talk about selling out?" a man yelled whenHerron
    spoke about his fear that the Conservatives are selling farmers out.

    Although the Liberal side was less vocal, Kings East MLA Leroy
    Armstrong weighed in at one point. "You’re out of touch," Armstrong
    yelled to Moore from the crowd when the debate turned to the cost of
    post-secondary education. Later in the evening Amos challenged
    Armstrong to a public debate of their own. "Talk is cheap. Any time,
    anyplace," Armstrong responded.

    As the crowd made its way out of the building following the debate,
    candidates worked the room. They shook hands with well-wishers and
    fielded questions from spectators-all part of the decision-making
    process for the June 28 vote.

    Cutline – David Amos, independent candidate in Fundy, with some of his
    favourite possessions—motorcycles.

    McKnight/KCR

    The Unconventional Candidate

    David Amos Isn’t Campaigning For Your Vote, But….

    By Gisele McKnight

    FUNDY—He has a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket, a chain on his
    wallet, a beard at least a foot long, 60 motorcycles and a cell phone
    that rings to the tune of "Yankee Doodle."

    Meet the latest addition to the Fundy ballot—David Amos.

    The independent candidate lives in Milton, Massachusetts with his wife
    and two children, but his place of residence does not stop him from
    running for office in Canada.

    One has only to be at least 18, a Canadian citizen and not be in jail
    to meet Elections Canada requirements.

    When it came time to launch his political crusade, Amos chose his
    favourite place to do so—Fundy.

    Amos, 52, is running for political office because of his
    dissatisfaction with politicians.

    "I’ve become aware of much corruption involving our two countries," he
    said. "The only way to fix corruption is in the political forum."

    The journey that eventually led Amos to politics began in Sussex in
    1987. He woke up one morning disillusioned with life and decided he
    needed to change his life.

    "I lost my faith in mankind," he said. "People go through that
    sometimes in midlife."

    So Amos, who’d lived in Sussex since 1973, closed his Four Corners
    motorcycle shop, paid his bills and hit the road with Annie, his 1952
    Panhead motorcycle.

    "Annie and I rode around for awhile (three years, to be exact)
    experiencing the milk of human kindness," he said. "This is how you
    renew your faith in mankind – you help anyone you can, you never ask
    for anything, but you take what they offer."

    For those three years, they offered food, a place to sleep, odd jobs
    and conversation all over North America.

    Since he and Annie stopped wandering, he has married, fathered a son
    and a daughter and become a house-husband – Mr. Mom, as he calls
    himself.

    He also describes himself in far more colourful terms—a motorcyclist
    rather than a biker, a "fun-loving, free-thinking, pig-headed
    individual," a "pissed-off Maritimer" rather than an activist, a proud
    Canadian and a "wild colonial boy."

    Ironically, the man who is running for office has never voted in his life.

    "But I have no right to criticize unless I offer my name," he said.
    "It’s alright to bitch in the kitchen, but can you walk the walk?"

    Amos has no intention of actively campaigning.

    "I didn’t appreciate it when they (politicians) pounded on my door
    interrupting my dinner," he said. "If people are interested, they can
    call me. I’m not going to drive my opinions down their throats."

    And he has no campaign budget, nor does he want one.

    "I won’t take any donations," he said. "Just try to give me some. It’s
    not about money. It goes against what I’m fighting about."

    What he’s fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood,
    the exploitation of the Maritimes’ gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to
    name a few.

    "The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs – fishing,
    farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I’m
    death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it
    (NAFTA) out the window.

    NAFTA is the North American Free Trade Agreement which allows an
    easier flow of goods between Canada, the United States and Mexico.

    Amos disagrees with the idea that a vote for him is a wasted vote.

    "There are no wasted votes," he said. "I want people like me,
    especially young people, to pay attention and exercise their right.
    Don’t necessarily vote for me, but vote."

    Although…if you’re going to vote anyway, Amos would be happy to have
    your X by his name.

    "I want people to go into that voting booth, see my name, laugh and
    say, ‘what the hell.’"

    My Friend was arrested for telling the truth Part 2 January 23, 2021

    Christopher_1993

    My friend, Independent Candidate from the New Brunswick Provincial Election of 2020 in Quispamsis, Liz Kramer, was arrested for telling the truth about the COVID Lockdowns. The Protest was dispersed immediately after that, and we had to go back our own ways until we could recoup and recover.

    Proverbs 29:2
    When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan.

    Romans 2:11-16
    11 For there is no partiality with God.

    12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law 13 (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; 14 for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, 15 who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them) 16 in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.

    Matthew 24: 9-12

    9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
    10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
    11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
    12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

    WANTED: AGENT Margaritaville ~ for exposing Family Court Fraud and
    200+ "Superior Court PedoJudges"
    4,308 views
    •Premiered May 19, 2020
    Agent Margaritaville
    This is NOT AN ENTERTAINMENT CHANNEL

    In this "remote from Vic's place," which apparently will be the new
    clubhouse of The Children's Army, and future site of the "Pedofaggot
    Judges Must Be Exterminated" centre, after Victor Paisley and his
    brood are taken away for conspiracy to obstruct justice, by raising
    nuisance charges and chasing Margaritaville around Canada with their
    SWATWATS and CHINESE-DOGS to suppress an investigation into authority
    re: conspiracy and pedophilia of over 200 Superior Court Judges,  as
    GUARANTEED by USMCA Chapter 27.5

    Now the US Govt will have to investigate Vic and his 200+ "esteemed
    jurist pedophile associates."

    Apparently Victor doesn't want his "esteemed pedophile judge friends"
    to face any justice...... as he may not be invited to any more "masked
    balls" at Maple Leaf Gardens.

    Victor and Johnny Chan, the suspected Chinese spy, will be addressed
    as conspirators to obstruct justice under USMCA 27.5 as the promised
    investigation was turned into a MAN HUNT AND COVERUP.... but mostly
    Victor knows what he did, and tried to get away with.... and NOW I am
    going to expose that little suspected pedophile prick to the end of
    his days.

    Norm Traversy has begun setting up a "Legal Defence and Frozen
    Cocktail" fund for Agent Margaritaville, .... however I am considering
    the option of "time well spent" educating the inmates about pedophile
    judges on the bench and trading home addresses of judges, cops and
    co's for chocolate bars or visits to 12 Vanguard Drive to deliver
    messages; while I design a new software system and buff up.

    Decisions.....

    Enjoy the words of Superior Court Justice Victor Paisley, as he ducks
    questions about pedophiles in the court. Listen also, as THE COURT
    promises an CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION into justices Ken Hood, Freya
    "KrislyCreamAss" Kristjansen, and lawyers who knowingly used Victor as
    their little puppy to engage in kidnapping and child trafficking.

    THE COURT instead, ran to the "Pakastani ISI and Pedophile controlled
    police," and cried that it was 'Intimidated" by questions about
    integrity, and pedophilia.

    Clearly Victor has tested positive for 🍕!

    The cop who is going to try to cover-up this promised criminal
    investigation into pedophile judges, is "Johnny Chan," a suspected
    Chinese spy, connected wth the massive Chinese infiltration of the
    🍕RCMP, and who's people have:
    1.  committed genocide in BC against Native Families, while stealing
    their land,
    2. infiltrated Canada and murder thousands of Canadians, with Corona
    Virus and weaponized 5G (Covid -19) emissions,
    3. Sent a Trannyboy to tell us we all need to stay home, as the
    Chinese protect the pedophiles in the courts while they install 5G
    towers.

    Johnny Chan was inspired massive: "Canadian Anti Pedophile Judge
    Protests," which will gather at the homes of Paisley and Marocco and
    ESTEEMED pedophile judges across Canada.

    Dates to be announced on this, and other Chanels.

    The #COVID19PedophileJudgeProtest will be an opportunity for you to
    engage with other Children's Army members, buy t shirts, hats and mugs
    and gather evidence on the remaining pedophile judges, (over 200) that
    Paisley and Johnny Chan are desperate to protect. Maybe Vic or Freya
    will make coffee? (Don't expect any donuts left at Freya's).

    Under USMCA, these pedophiles (and Chan's people) will be investigated
    to the depth of their digital history, arrested and prosecuted.

    Article 27.4: Promoting Integrity among Public Officials

    1. To fight corruption in matters that affect trade and investment,
    each Party should promote, among other things, integrity, honesty and
    responsibility among its public officials. To this end, each Party
    shall, in accordance with the fundamental principles of its legal
    system, adopt or maintain:
    (a) measures to provide adequate procedures for the selection and
    training of individuals for public positions considered by the Party
    to be especially vulnerable to corruption;
    (b) measures to promote transparency in the behaviour of public
    officials in the exercise of public functions;
    (c) appropriate policies and procedures to identify and manage actual
    or potential conflicts of interest of public officials;
    (d) measures that require senior public officials, and other public
    officials as considered appropriate by the Party, to make declarations
    to appropriate authorities regarding, among other things, their
    outside activities, employment, investments, assets, and substantial
    gifts or benefits from which a conflict of interest may result with
    respect to their functions as public officials; and
    (e) measures to facilitate reporting by public officials of any facts
    concerning offences described in Article 27.3.1, 27.3.2, or 27.3.6
    (Measures to Combat Corruption) to appropriate authorities, if those
    facts come to their notice in the performance of their functions.
    2. Each Party shall adopt or maintain codes or standards of conduct
    for the correct, honourable and proper performance of public
    functions, and measures providing for disciplinary or other measures,
    if warranted, against a public official who violates the codes or
    standards established in accordance with this paragraph.
    3. Each Party shall, to the extent consistent with the fundamental
    principles of its legal system, establish procedures through which a
    public official accused of an offence described in Article 27.3.1
    (Measures to Combat Corruption) may, as considered appropriate by that
    Party, be removed, suspended, or reassigned by the appropriate
    authority, bearing in mind respect for the principle of the
    presumption of innocence.
    4. Each Party shall, in accordance with the fundamental principles of
    its legal system and without prejudice to judicial independence, adopt
    or maintain measures to strengthen integrity, and to prevent
    opportunities for corruption, AMONG MEMBERS OF THE JUDICIARY in
    matters that affect international trade or investment. These measures
    may include rules with respect to the conduct of members of the
    judiciary.

    The Court received numerous evidence covered by this law, and wiped
    their asses with it (Freya took 135 rolls of paper!)

    With Justice denied: "Should we just post links to where these
    pedophiles asleep?”  After all, THEY, like ALL CANADIANS: "Have no
    absolute right to justice" according to these pedophile protecting
    practitioners of ..... well "listen to 🍕ictor!"

    Sherwood (1959 - 2019) who filed an affidavit however these judges,

    1. The Children's Army is ready to open the doors to more digital
    soldiers, so please follow the instructions and join the team if you
    wish.

    If you wish to support the work of our team, feel free to reach out.

    Hats, t shirts and mugs will soon be available for The Children's Army
    and Agent Margaritaville; to help fund our teams work and let you show
    your "Margaritaville Coolness," and The Children's Army support on
    your front with your stated stance against pedophile symbols on our
    Prime Ministers Annual Report, and The handy "Check off List" your
    favourite Pedofaggot Judge on the back.

    Guess who's name will top the list in the comments and the funniest
    rhyme about that pedophile judge will win a The Children's Army
    T-Shirt.

    2. Last week, Victor Paisley was quietly tossed from the pizza plague
    that NOW KNOWN as The Superior Court of JustPedophiles, thus saving
    many new victims from his plague, but still to face those litigants
    who probably were as fucked by him as I was..... and he will. Johnny
    Chan made sure of that.

    Meanwhile, Johnny Chan and his Chinese Conspiracy to Obstruct Justice
    in violations of USMCA 26.7 continues..... with DOGS and SWATWATS
    chasing Agent Margaritaville in a nation wide man hunt.

    Being chased by a Chinese is like .... well, awaiting for them to kill
    us all under the orders of their grand master WHO/MOH 'TrannyTam' ...
    "Chinese Women with Penises."

    Meanwhile The Superior Court of JustPedophiles, attacks Agent
    Margaritaville thinking it will do anything but make our team back up
    the videos across 100's of channels, and this FRIDAY, thanks to this
    attack, perhaps inspire the great DAVID AMOS to send Victors words to
    every single judge of the Superior Court of JustPedophiles, at their
    own SCJ email addresses; to see if the court's opinion is the same as
    the view count, before Victor's team desperately suppressed it to
    cover up his colossal embarrassment at the hands of Johnny "always
    gets his man,... except when she pretends to be a woman" Chan.

    498 - 5 Victor.

    Thats is an ASSSSSS kicking old dude.

    No longer a judge dude.

    In the crosshairs of justice dude.

    Victor.... you are fucking guilty.

    Thanks to you Johnny.... the pedophile coverupper for the court, we
    know the truth about Victor and why he knew all you needed was a "can
    of coke and proximity to children!" - words of experience.

    Cocksucker.

    Perhaps mailboxes on Victor's street will be receiving USB sticks from
    Dolllarama with the video on it, if YouTube cannot broadcast it.
    Perhaps we will make a video and show you how to access these
    databases and find your own favourite persons information. The servers
    all rest on a Cherokee Reservation in the USA ironically, where the
    Awan's sadly left their back doors open.

    .... anybody seen those Paki assholes lately?

    SUCCESS: Rebel News helps New Brunswick man defeat COVID-19 ticket

    Walter Matheson could be any one of us. Doing a normal thing, apart from other people as they say we must in the time of the Wuhan Flu, and yet still Walter still ended up on the wrong side of these evolving pandemic regulations that don’t seem to make any sense or impact on COVID-19 transmissions, but are being enforced with a heavy-hand any way.

    Walter is the severely normal Hampton, New Brunswick man who found himself receiving a ticket for running afoul of the Quarantine Act for eating a muffin and drinking a coffee in his car, entirely alone in a Tim Horton’s parking lot. Because it’s not safe to eat and drive.

    In the abbreviated version of the story, Walter was parked in his car eating when a cop approached him. Walter wisely started audio recording everything on his phone. The cop told him to move along or apparently, Walter, this older gentleman eating his baked goods alone, might attract teenagers to loiter in the Tims parking lot.

    Walter questioned the ridiculousness of it all to the officer, and then attempted to comply with the officer’s orders anyway and leave. The officer then stopped Walter from leaving and gave him a $300 ticket for failing to comply with the Quarantine Act. But not before swearing and getting abusive with Walter first.

    Watch my video and you can hear some of the recording of their interaction for yourself

    We jumped in to help Walter and with your help, we hired Walter one of the best lawyers in the country, Sam Goldstein, a bencher with the law society of Ontario, to challenge the ticket.

    But then the story got even crazier. The cop who got vulgar with Walter and tried to bully him then tried to bully me. The cop hired a lawyer named Carley Parish to send a letter to my boss at Rebel News telling us to take down our video, accusing me, I think, of defaming the RCMP officer — who I didn’t name in my video — by publishing the audio Walter recorded (that she strangely accused me of recording).

    But it gets even weirder. That inept lawyer Carley Parish just ran for the Liberals in New Brunswick in their provincial election and lost in an epic way a couple days ago, barely wrangling up 1,000 votes.

    I guess unconstitutional bullying isn't a great campaign strategy in small town maritime Canada. But there is even better news.

    Ticket thrown out

    The prosecutor in Hampton has thrown out Walter’s ticket. They say on a technicality, even though that technicality is something that could have easily been amended. I say they turfed the ticket because they all know that cop made a huge mistake and embarrassed himself and everyone else forced to deal with the ticket after the fact. They are dropping that ticket because Walter fought back, and because we told the world.

    I caught up with Walter earlier this week to talk about the good news. After I talked to Walter, I caught up with Sam Goldstein, the top criminal lawyer we hired for Walter (and of course, with the help of those of you who donated at FightTheFines.com).

    Help Rebel News keep fighting

    So it was a crushing defeat in the electoral process for the lawyer Carley Parish, a crushing defeat to her reputation as a lawyer with that insane letter she sent me, and the bully cop was taught a tough lesson that if you are going to bully and ticket people for gently pushing back before they try to comply, well, Rebel News and our viewers and supporters are here to help.

    The attention brought to the story by hundreds of thousands of people sharing the videos we did on Walters’ case, and all of the people donating to help hire a lawyer for Walter and the other Fight The Fines defendants just like him, is really what helped Walter win this thing.

    To help us keep fighting back against the coronavirus cops and the out of control fines being issued to people for just trying to live their lives, please visit: FightTheFines.com

    Tim Hortons COVID cop sends lawyer's letter: Take that off the Internet!

    By   June 08, 2020


    https://youtu.be/_XoJJF7ImcM


    I have an incredible update to the story of Walter Matheson. He's the Hampton, New Brunswick resident who was ticketed almost $300 by police for failure to comply with emergency measures in a Tim Hortons parking lot while he ate his muffin and finished his coffee, completely alone in his car.

    The thing is: Walter did try to comply, but the police officer stopped him, then ticketed him — even swearing at Walter at one point. It was almost too crazy to be true, however, we know it happened the way Walter describes, because Walter brilliantly recorded the interaction he had with the officer that day and gave it to us.

    You can see the full story and help Walter fight back at FightTheFines.com.

    Now, I am part of the story because the police officer who ticketed Walter is coming after me. He had a lawyer send a legal threat letter to Rebel HQ accusing me of defaming him!  
    But I’m not so sure the lawyer even watched my 10 minute video I made talking about Walter’s case, even though hundreds of thousands of other people have.

    She wrote: “We understand your reporter recorded a conversation without the knowledge of Constable Thompson... In addition Sheila Gunn Reid repeatedly mentions his name in the article”.
    I did neither of those things, but even if I had, neither one is illegal.

    And, unbelievably, the lawyer wants my copy of Walter’s recording turned over to the RCMP in Hampton.  

    No way. Today I will take you through the full letter I received from the law offices of Lutz, Longstaff and Parish in Hampton New Brunswick and let you hear what happened when Ezra called that law office to try to get to the bottom of all of this.

    Cst. Thompson and his lawyer demanding I remove critical information from my story and turn over my journalistic materials to the police proves my original thesis: This cop is a bully. 
    He tried to bully Walter Matheson in a Tim Hortons parking lot and now he’s trying to bully me, But it didn't work on Walter, and it won't work on me.

    Bring it on. I’m ready to fight.

    Police gave out at least 17 fines to people who allegedly broke emergency rules

    Head of civil liberties watchdog says incidents that drew fines are ‘trivial’


    Karissa Donkin· CBC News· Posted: Aug 06, 2020 6:00 AM AT



    The Miramichi Police Force handed out tickets to people who weren't social distancing, among other violations of emergency rules. (CBC)

    Police agencies across New Brunswick have issued at least 17 tickets to people who allegedly weren't following emergency rules — for offences ranging from not social distancing to touching people at a restaurant.

    CBC News filed several access to information requests after a number of police forces refused to say how many tickets their officers have handed out, emphasizing that education is the primary objective before giving out tickets.

    The new data sheds light not just on the number of tickets given to alleged rule-breakers, but the reasons why people were fined.

    There's no evidence that the deterrent of getting a ticket with a fine has any impact on how people behave when it comes to preventing COVID-19, according to Michael Bryant, the executive director of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.

    Beyond that, he said, ticketing people "is an infringement of liberty" that isn't justified in these circumstances.

    "When I look at the evidence that you've unearthed about why these tickets have been handed out, these are frankly trivial and certainly not reckless or harmful activities," Bryant said in an interview after reviewing the ticketing data from the police forces.

    "In fact, we have no evidence that it prevented a single instance of COVID from being contracted."


    Michael Bryant, executive director of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, described the incidents that drew fines from New Brunswick police agencies as 'trivial.' (Jacqueline Hansen/CBC)

    A June report released by the civil liberties watchdog and the Policing the Pandemic mapping project, which tracks enforcement of COVID-19 rules across the country, found that $13 million in COVID-related fines had been handed out across the country between April 1 and June 15. The tickets were predominantly issued in Quebec, Ontario and Nova Scotia.

    No data from NB RCMP

    While people were ticketed for not social distancing in some cases, no fines were handed out at a large gathering at Grand Lake in July. Photos of the event on social media show a large group of people swimming, boating and drinking together.

    The 17 tickets captured in this data don't include any tickets handed out by provincial enforcement officers in New Brunswick. These are the provincial employees, including forest rangers and corrections officers, who have been trained to make sure the emergency rules are respected.

    Earlier this year, CBC News found that New Brunswickers have received more than $20,000 worth of fines from provincial enforcement officers, primarily at key provincial border points. Few details have been made available around what people in those cases did to warrant a $292.50 fine.
    Data is also missing from the New Brunswick RCMP, which declined to say how many tickets it has issued. CBC News has filed an access to information request to get the data.

    "The New Brunswick RCMP is not releasing the number of tickets that have been issued as issuing tickets is only one part of our enforcement efforts and does not reflect all of the work that is being done collaboratively with communities, our policing partners and the province," New Brunswick RCMP spokesperson Jullie Rogers-Marsh said earlier this summer.


    The New Brunswick RCMP has not provided its data, saying it prefers to focus on education first. (Shane Magee/CBC)

    In neighbouring Nova Scotia, the RCMP regularly issued news releases about its COVID-19 enforcement efforts for several months.

    "It cannot be right that the same police force, the RCMP, is secretive in one province and providing disclosure in the other," Bryant said.

    Not social distancing

    The Miramichi Police Force initially declined to say how many tickets were issued for people who allegedly haven't followed the Emergency Measures Act.

    "Although I do not wish to comment on the issuing of tickets, we have been following the advice of the chief medical officer for the province of [New Brunswick] in trying to educate as many people as we can on COVID-19 and what people can do to try and reduce the spread of the virus," Miramichi police Chief Paul Fiander said in April.

    After CBC News filed an access to information request, the police force revealed that it had issued seven tickets between March 19 and June 26, more than any other municipal police force. The region had only two COVID-19 cases during that time frame.

    In one instance where the Miramichi Police Force handed out tickets, three people were fined after "a complaint was received about the individuals hanging out at a residence that none of them belonged to," the records show. Police had already warned them once before.

    In a separate case, two people were fined for not social distancing in a private parking lot.


    "Both had been asked to leave the area several times by the complainant," the records say.

    Two other people were fined in separate instances for not social distancing, including one person inside an apartment building.

    According to the information provided by the police, the seven people who were ticketed didn't pay their fines, didn't show up for their scheduled court appearances and were deemed guilty by a provincial court judge.

    Fiander was not available for an interview on Wednesday.

    No tickets issued by several police forces

    The Fredericton Police Force also declined to provide details on its tickets, until CBC News filed an access to information request.

    The police force issued four $292.50 tickets between March 19 and June 26. In all four cases, court dates have been set for September or October.

    In one case, police fined a young person on Hillcourt Drive for allegedly visiting another home during a pandemic.

    In another, a person was fined on King Street for allegedly "touching people without permission at [a] food establishment."

    Several police agencies, including the Kennebecasis Regional Police Force, Grand Falls Police Force and the BNPP Regional Police, reported that they haven't issued any tickets.

    The province's chief medical officer of health, Dr. Jennifer Russell, acknowledged that fines have been given but said they seem to be "the exception rather than the rule."

    "I think it's a balance at this point in time in terms of trying to understand where people are at and what is the most educational and supportive way of getting to where we want to get to," Russell said in an interview.

    Methinks the lawyer Michael Bryant as Ontario's former Attorney General must must recall the registered US Mail (signature required) that I sent him and 7 other Attorney Generals in August of 2005. The package included the same CD and a pile of documents that the Attorney General of New Brunswick, the Deputy Prime Minister, the Governor General of Canada and many others had answered in 2004 before I was falsely arrested and imprisoned in the USA after I ran for a seat in the 38th Parliament then sued the Queen 10 very long years later N'esy Pas?

    They would have had a field day at the Petty Raceway last Saturday. Probably 1500 to 2000 people sitting in a Grand Stand for 4 hours. No social Distancing at all.

Furthermore methinks the RCMP in Fundy Royal learned a hard lesson about giving out Higgy's Police State tickets after the circus at Tims in Hampton hit the Rebel News bigtime months ago N'esy Pas?

    Reply to @Tim Biddiscombe:
    Take a closer look at those numbers. Others have and have found that they are being fudged. They are citing motor vehicle accidents as covid 19 related deaths. Everything that respiratory related is being blamed on the covid 19 to the point where pneumonia and the flu numbers have moved from significant to zero. Look closer at this, b/c something really stinks about this whole virus scare.

    More and more, it looks like there is a major political element to it.

    Reply to @Tim Biddiscombe: This is such a silly argument to make, as if nobody in Canada has ever passed away before of something. 80% of them were in long term care homes (50% of whom typically pass within 6 months of being admitted, remaining had other illnesses), another 1000 were in younger cohorts with other health conditions underlying, and a whopping 500 were younger with no underlying conditions. Those are the stats can figures of your super deadly virus. So yes, it’s been politicized, heavily, you’ve just refused to dig any deeper to analyze the extent to which this rings true. We’re literally just renaming mortalities that were already happening, or very likely to happen already.

    David Peters  
    Reply to @Bob Smith: Speaking of facts and figures, there seems to be very little of those being reported by cbc. Where is gov't getting their numbers from, exactly, to make such sweeping changes to our economy?

    When you look at the cdc numbers, there is definite fudging going on. Look at their pneumonia and flu deaths during Feb and March. All of a sudden they go to zero in 2020, where normally there are hundreds. It's like they are calling everything respiratory related a covid 19 death.

    Also, it would be nice to take a closer look at those numbers that are claiming 8000 or 9000 covid 19 deaths in Canada. Wonder where those stats can be found...


    David Peters 
    Reply to @Michel Forgeron:
    Not privatized, but audited. Have you looked at what the cost of policing has ballooned to? Imo, with technology like it is, there could be a better, faster and cheaper form a policing, if it were seriously looked at...that includes the judicial end of things as well.

    Mr. Bryant says "There's no evidence that the deterrent of getting a ticket with a fine has any impact..."
    Oh really? I would say that only 17 tickets out of a population of 750,000 is pretty strong evidence of the contrary Mr. Bryant.

    Anyone that pays a covid fine , especially before going to court, is not thinking straight.

    Ben Haroldson 
    Reply to @Fred Brewer: Now that sounds bright, I AM following the rules, I wear a mask, I distance, but if I DID get a ticket , I would fight it in court, because the people issuing them are not qualified to do so.

    "It cannot be right that the same police force, the RCMP, is secretive in one province and providing disclosure in the other," Bryant said.
    On this point, I agree completely with Mr. Bryant. It is shameful that the NB RCMP refuse to disclose even the number of tickets that they have issued.



    Ben Haroldson
    Reply to @Fred Brewer: The tickets are probably all being issued by unqualified power trippers.

    While I'm sure that the need for extra money in local policing is a sheer coincidence here odds are they are leaving out the number of tickets because they really don't want to explain the community biases involved when giving out the tickets. You dare question their authority? You'll be ticketed for something eventually...

    It's like jaywalking...most of the time it's safe and if caught nobody will care, but if you have either a knucklehead who rants to the cop and gives them a hard time, OR you have an cop who just loves messing with certain people (young, poor, "known to police", etc), then that person will be fined out of sheer spite. Fairness has nothing to do with it, thus they are hiding the tickets so they don't have to explain that little fact to anyone: the smaller the community...the larger the biases because they are bored.

    The tickets and what they are for are irrelevant here...it's just the small minded cops doing what they always do, just with a new law for them to "interpret"

    Michael Bryant could be hired to write up a new set of laws,you know the right ones.Possibly we could cross bank robbery off the list as there are repeat offenders,the penalty seems to do little to curb the activity. As I see it the problem is being too lenient when dishing out the fines.

     Should Alberta Separate?

    Rick Northey, President

    My name is Rick Northey and I am the current President of the Wildrose Independence Party of Alberta. I was born in Peterborough Ontario but have lived half my life in Alberta. I have experienced the both the boom times and the financial hardships that can follow.

    My political involvement started at the University of Windsor when I joined the Reform party. In hindsight, I suppose, it only made sense to move to Calgary.

    I was active for several years as a volunteer with the old Wildrose party. I have worked on many election campaigns filling almost every possible position at one time or another.  I have also been the President of Wildrose and UCP constituency associations so I know the hard and unglamorous work that goes on behind the scenes of political parties.

    During this last year, I was the Chair of the Committee which wrote our current interim Constitution and I helped negotiate the last phase of the FCP/Wexit merger. I have tried to adapt and learn from the mistakes of both Wildrose and the UCP, developing policies and procedures based on past successes and failures. Several months of work is now being submitted for Member’s approval to be the broad framework of the next phase of Wildrose.

    Hello my name is James Goransrud. I am a 4th generation Albertan. My ancestors walked here and put down roots on the same land I ranch today in the Camrose area. My family homesteaded in the spruce Coulee area of Central Alberta just east of a little town called Donalda, AB. My grandfather was born in a log home that his father built from the spruce trees growing on his property  in 1905.
     
    I am humbly asking for your support to run for the Board of Directors for the Wildrose Independence Party of Alberta (WIPA). I want to give my children and your children the same opportunities that I have had in Alberta.
     
    I have been self employed for over 40 years. I am a tradesmen, businessman, and rancher. I have employed up to thirty Albertans and have had good times and weathered bad times in my business as many have.
     
    My sheet metal company worked on  many projects across Alberta, Saskatchewan, Yukon, North West Territories in both industrial, commercial, and residential. In 2010 I decided to wind down my sheet metal and ventilation business and focus on being a bison rancher. The aftermath of that transition being the success of four ranches, home to one thousand head of bison.
     
    I am getting involved in politics because I see no future for my six children and ten grandchildren. I believe in an honest days work for an honest days pay. My generation allowed this beautiful rich province to be oppressed by the elite of Toronto and Quebec, who treat us as a colony. This MUST end.
     
    The countless lies and oppressive policies of both Conservative and Liberal governments have had devastating effects on Alberta year after year after year.
     
    Suffice it to say that I am a proud and strong Albertan. I believe we must form our own country and very much want to do my part to help WIPA get the job done. I promise to put Albertans first always.
     
    Sincerely,
    James Goransrud

    More cracks are developing in Premier Jason Kenney’s UCP caucus after four more MLAs have come forward blasting the government’s current COVID-19 lockdown policies.

    Medicine Hat UCP MLA Michaela Glasgo has joined colleagues Todd Loewen, Dave Hanson, Ron Orr, Angela Pitt and Drew Barnes in condemning current regulations.

    “I’ve heard loud and clear the frustration from Albertans, and my own constituents, since (Monday’s) announcement of delayed reopenings and partially lifted restrictions. Know that I am listening, I hear you, and I believe that you have every right to feel this way — I do too,” Glasgo wrote on her Facebook page.

    “Many people have questions about some of the inconsistent rules and moving goalposts. I know this and other issues have shaken the trust of Albertans. I committed to building trust with you, my constituents and intend to continue that.”

    “I have always supported the regional approach to COVID. We have done an exceptional job with municipalities reaching and maintaining zero cases. We know there are physical and mental health benefits to safely opening more activities in gyms and allowing families and friends to spend time together.

    “You have made considerable sacrifices on all levels. As an MLA, I learned about (the) announcement the same time and way as most Albertans did: on Facebook live. I will take the concerns of my constituents back to my government colleagues in hopes it will make a difference.”

    It was the exact same post as the one put up by Loewen, UCP MLA for Centrel Peace-Notley.

    “(EDIT: For those wondering, I discussed this post with several MLAs and staff before I posted it. After I posted it, other MLAs reached out to me to see if I would mind if they used it or shared it. I happily obliged. I hope more who share the views expressed here will also feel comfortable using and sharing it.) Loewen wrote.

    The Calgary Sun’s Rick Bell reported MLAs Dave Hanson and Ron Barr are also opposing the restrictions.

    Barnes and Pitt have also joined the “End the Lockdown Caucus” a group of politicians from across the country who are working to see the regulations are removed.

    Kenney announcement of only libraries and gyms being allowed to resume some operations in Phase 2 caught many by surprise because the province has already exceeded many benchmarks to have started Phase 3.

    Barnes said his Cypress-Medicine Hat constituents are “suffering extreme fatigue” because of the restrictions.

    “Some of my colleagues (in caucus) are finally starting to push back – it’s going to be an interesting few weeks in politics,” Barnes said in an interview with the Western Standard.

    “The government has lost the trust of some people here. The benchmarks were set and met. Albertans have done the hard work. But now the mental and economic crisis is just as bad as the COVID crisis.”

    When questioned by reporters Wednesday on caucus criticism, Kenney said MLAs were free to speak their minds.

    “I’m not at all surprised Albertans have a range of opinions,” Kenney said.

    “We welcome the input of ideas from all MLAs.”

    “The government cannot wish these things away. We can’t let politics get in the way.”

    EXCLUSIVE: Fired Kenney chief of staff lands $60K severance payout

    “Mr. Huckabay had served as the now-Premier’s Chief of Staff since his time in opposition going back to 2018. Mr. Huckabay’s severance is in the range of $60,000,” said his staff

    Published on

    After refusing to answer Western Standard questions about Jason Kenney’s former chief of staff Jamie Huckabay’s severance package, the Premier’s Office finally released the numbers.

    The Western Standard has been asking Kenney’s office daily since last Friday whether Huckabay would get a severance package – but has been met with complete silence. Western Standard reporters have also been denied the right to ask questions of Kenney in press conferences.

    Minutes after the Western Standard published a story on Wednesday afternoon about the refusal to answer, the Premier’s Office said that Huckabay’s severance payout was less than the $130,000 pocketed by former Alison Redford chief of staff Stephen Carter.

    “Sincere apologies for the length of time it has taken me to respond to your inquiry,” wrote Kenney’s chief spokesman Christine Myatt.

    “The terms for severance are outlined in staff contracts – contracts that are publicly posted for all to see. These terms for political staffers are standard, longstanding, and not unique to the current government.

    “I’d note that the NDP government paid out severance of close to $6 million in public funds for their government staff after the 2019 election.

    “Mr. Huckabay had served as the now-Premier’s Chief of Staff since his time in opposition going back to 2018. Mr. Huckabay’s severance is in the range of $60,000 (pre-tax) – in line with the terms of his contract.”

    The Canadian Taxpayers Federation wasn’t happy with the severance.

    “Taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for Huckabay’s severance,” said Franco Terrazzano, the CTF’s Alberta Director.

    “Someone messed up but it wasn’t taxpayers, so we shouldn’t be paying for the mistake.”

    The last time a (COS) got replaced mid-term was in 2012, when Stephen Carter left the job with then-premier Alison Redford.

    Even though he had only been on the job for six months, Carter left the job in April 2012, with a $130,000 cheque.

    Carter, whose company defaulted on $600,000 in court-ordered payments, was Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi’s campaign chair in 2010.

    A huge hubbub erupted when Carter’s severance was initially not made public.

    Redford said she couldn’t release the figure because of FOIP laws but announced the provincial government would be forming a new policy that would see all salary and severance information for senior government employees disclosed by the end of the year.

    In the end, Carter tweeted the amount of severance himself on October of 2013. He said he had negotiated his own severance contract that paid him the $130,000.

    Huckabay was fired by Kenney during the UCP snowbird scandal, when it was discovered at least 10 MLAs and staffers had jetted out of the province for warmer climes, despite health recommendations advising against non-essential travel. Huckabay flew to the U.K.

    The province was also in lockdown, meaning Christmas was cancelled for most people because household gatherings were banned. The measures meant people were not able to visit relatives in long term care centres over the holiday.

    The Municipal Affairs Minister Tracy Allard lost her cabinet position – and the $60,000 bump in salary that came with it – after she was ordered back to the province from Hawaii, where she was having “a 17-year-traditional” Christmas gathering.

    Huckabay’s publicly posted contract, dated April 30, 2019, lists his salary as $8,620.69 every two weeks – for a yearly total of $224,137,94.

    It is not known whether he negotiated his own severance package.

    Huckabay’s contract

    Huckabay was a longtime Kenney ally, working with him on his UCP leadership campaign.

    Hukabay’s contract can be reviewed here.
