NDP gets help from democracy expert
CBC News · Posted: Jan 09, 2006 4:23 PM AT
An international expert on democracy has flown all the way from Egypt to help NDP candidate John Carty campaign in Fredericton.
Dominic Cardy is with a group called The National Democratic Institute. Its members include such people as former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. The group's mission is to teach democratic values and spread democracy around the world.
Cardy has taught about democracy in Algeria, Bangladesh, and Cambodia during the past few years. When he heard his friend John Carty was running for office back in his home town of Fredericton, he hopped on a plane.
"It was a strange experience," Cardy said. "One evening I was watching the sun go down over the pyramids, and the next evening watched it go down over Fredericton airport as I came into land."
Cardy is no relation to the NDP candidate. But he loves elections and loves getting people pumped up about democracy.
Carty the candidate is running against federal Indian Affairs Minister Andy Scott, Conservative Pat Lynch, Green candidate Philip Duchastel and independent David Amos. The riding has sent Scott to Ottawa for the last four elections, despite the best efforts of the other parties.
Cardy says he doesn't care how tough the race his he just wants people to participate in the process. "People have forgotten how incredibly precious these gifts that our ancestors fought for are and were just giving them away. It makes me furious when I talk to people and people just say 'ah there's no point in voting.'"
After election day, Dominic Cardy is flying back home to his wife in Kathmandu, Nepal. He hopes to leave behind a new Member of Parliament for Fredericton, his friend John Carty for the NDP.
CBC or his buddies Higgy and Dominic Cardy nor anybody else will ever dare to deny that the following comment of mine can still be found in one of Chucky Leblanc's blogs to this very day N'esy Pas?
http://oldmaison.blogspot.com/2006/04/roomers-truly-have-no-rights.html
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.

Elizabeth Weir on an election observation mission in 2014 in Tunisia. (Submitted by Elizabeth Weir)
Elizabeth Weir's job after politics has brought her around the world, but now it's her hometown of Saint John that will honour Weir for her work increasing the effectiveness of democratic institutions abroad.
Weir will be the first recipient of the Spirit of Ella Hatheway Award, to celebrate a Saint John-area woman who has demonstrated leadership in working toward positive social change.
Weir stepped away from provincial politics at home after spending years in the political spotlight, and after winning four elections in the 1990s. Weir was leader of New Brunswick's New Democratic Party for 16 years, stepping down from leadership in 2005.
She said she made that decision so she could reclaim her private life and give space for other voices.
"I firmly believe that it [was] time for other people to have, you know, public space to talk about their views for the future," Weir said in an interview with Information Morning Saint John on Thursday.
For the last several years, Weir has spent her time travelling around the world — to some 28 countries — training others in democratic governance and oversight with parliamentarians, political party activists and social leaders.
Weir has been working with the United Nations and with the National Democratic Institute, an international non-governmental organization based out of Washington that works in 55 countries globally.
She has just returned from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where she was leading strategic planning sessions for political parties in advance of the country's upcoming election in August.
Weir said, when she first began work in other countries, she was wracked with guilt.
"I thought, 'Here I am a parliamentarian from a small province in Canada and they're just emerging from 30 years of civil war. What can I offer them that's of value?'"
Weir said she quickly learned that the job of member of parliament is essentially the same, regardless of the country she travelled to.
But when training politicians elsewhere in the world, she emphasizes that working in parliament is a job they'll pick up on over time.
"If you want to be a member of parliament there's no university, there's no degree. This is a job that you have to learn by doing so."

Politicians in other countries are often elected with little or no staff, no offices and no support in the community, Weir said.
"They're working with very limited resources,"she said, adding that her experience as a New Brunswick politician has been valuable in helping her train others who also don't have the vast financial resources and support that a politician would get in the British House of Commons.
Weir said she's had the chance to work with female MPs in other countries who face immense challenges and violence because they're women.
"I've worked with a member of parliament who was assassinated as she was gassing up her car," Weir said. "There's such a hunger for them to be able to do their work well."

"It's just shown to be absolutely hollow," she said.
"Many of my good American friends are heartbroken about what's going on in their country and they recognize it's going to take years for them to try and recover."
The award Weir is receiving is named for Ella Hatheway, who campaigned for women to have the right to vote in New Brunswick in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The award presentation will take place at Lily Lake Pavilion in Saint John from 6 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Feb. 20.

Ms. Weir never misses an opportunity to show off her real NDP agenda. Even worrying about her American friends who are lamenting their own status of government….They are ALL away most of the time, (herself visiting 28 countries, so she is not here now, is she?)it really does not matter what goes on, now does it. Also, Weir should be alarmed at our state of lack of governance in our own country. Or maybe, she is hopeful to be called to the Senate so saying little is key. I hnope she puts in putting a good word at the UN in favour of Justin so he can get out of here a.s.a.p.

MR. AMOS: Let me back up. When I first introduced myself on a pre-hearing for 357, I was opposing a former public intervenor wanting to get on the gravy train again. I explained myself when I introduced myself at that, that every lawyer in the room should know who I was, including you. I sent you emails where I sent you emails ten years ago. That said, I know who I am. I was there to oppose a former public intervenor wanting to get paid by his own assistant. I opposed that. I can speak on my behalf, Gerald can speak on his behalf, Roger can speak on his behalf. Why should anybody be paid?
After that I was invited by NB Power, Mr. Furey, to a secret meeting to discuss this. They wanted to pick my brains to see what my issues were. And we couldn't disclose what was said in the room.
I clearly stated what my issues were, conflict of interest by law firms. Good example. The people that filed this motion today, JDI, Stewart McKelvey, are also employed by NB Power to litigate to collect for Lepreau. That's conflict of interest. And then we have McInnes and Cooper and then we have and then we have and then we have.

Former N.B. politician honoured for work on democracy around the world

Methinks everybody in the know in GNB knows that in 2004 after running in the election of the 38th Parliement while being illegally barred from parliamentary properties I gave the political lawyer Dizzy Lizzy Weir exactly the same documents and CD that I gave the Ombudsman Bernie Richard. Once I made everybody aware that the lawyer Richard and even the Governor General had answered me in writing Bernie Lord gave Wier and fancy job just like he had given the liberal Bernie Richard.

And then we have McInnes and Cooper and then we have and then we have and then we have.

You're spot on. All politics are local, like they say.
How they are treating opposition at city hall and how they are treating small businesses should cause for real concern for everyone.
The monopoly pays 6% of the commercial property tax rate. It gets much uglier, the closer one looks at it.
