>>
>> BETWEEN:
>>
>> DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
>>
>> Plaintiff
>>
>> and
>>
>> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>
>> Defendant
>>
>> ORDER
>>
>> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
>> December 14, 2015)
>>
>> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
>> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
>> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
>> in its entirety.
>>
>> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
>> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
>> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that letter
>> he stated:
>>
>> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
>> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
>> You are your brother’s keeper.
>>
>> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
>> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
>> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
>> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
>> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
>> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
>> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
>> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
>> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>> Police.
>>
>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
>> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
>> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
>> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
>> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
>> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
>>
>>
>> AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
>> the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion. There
>> is no order as to costs.
>>
>> “B. Richard Bell”
>> Judge
>>
>>
>> Below after the CBC article about your concerns (I made one comment
>> already) you will find the text of just two of many emails I had sent

There are times when no amount of planning can prepare you for the completely unexpected.
The Liberals returned Monday for the fall sitting of Parliament with a plan to highlight what they see as their success over the past three years in making life better for the middle class, to focus attention on their efforts to diversify Canada's trading partnerships, and to remind voters that they have more money in their pockets today than they did under the Conservatives.
It took a single member of the government's backbench mere minutes to unravel those plans.
Leona Alleslev crossed the floor to join Andrew Scheer's opposition Conservatives, denouncing the prime minister's handling of the economy and his failure, as she put it, to defend Canada's interests at a time of unprecedented instability.
"This is not a strong economy. And our country needs strong leadership."
A defection from the government benches to the opposition is unusual no matter when it happens.
Ontario MP Leona Alleslev is crossing the floor from the Liberals to join the Conservative party caucus — the first such loss for the governing party since the last election.
The floor crossing is a coup for the opposition Tories, who are counting on a breakthrough in suburban Toronto-area ridings like the one held by Alleslev to win them the next federal election.
While Alleslev said Monday she had been thinking about leaving the party for "a while," her Twitter activity over the summer betrays nothing of her dissatisfaction.
Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer said Monday he and Alleslev have been in discussions about a floor-crossing for a "a few weeks"— meaning the MP held talks with her former political foe only a short time after hosting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in her riding for an event that celebrated
Liberal accomplishments since forming government in 2015.
In a July 20 tweet, Alleslev thanked the prime minister for visiting her Aurora riding and said she looked forward to carrying the Liberal banner in the next campaign.
Alleslev explained away her shifting loyalties Monday by saying the Liberal party has not adequately addressed some "foundational challenges" facing Canada. She cited the government's handling of the economy, tax reform, foreign affairs and trading relationships, and what she calls inadequate military spending, as the reasons motivating her to jump from the government bench to the Tories.
Alleslev, a graduate of the Royal Military College and a former captain in the Royal Canadian Air Force, held senior positions at the Department of National Defence, IBM and aerospace manufacturer Bombardier before seeking the Liberal nomination for the Aurora-Oak Ridges-Richmond Hill riding in 2014.
"My attempts to raise my concerns with this government were met with silence," Alleslev said in a speech in the House of Commons announcing her move. "It's my duty to stand and be counted. Our country is at risk. The government must be challenged openly and publicly.
"To my Liberal colleagues, thank you. But my oath is to country, not party and my sacred obligation is to serve my constituents."
This is the first floor crossing the Liberals have faced since Trudeau assumed leadership of the party in 2014.
Later Monday, in conversation with Paul Wells of Maclean's magazine, Trudeau said he remembered Alleslev as being a thoughtful candidate who knew she was in a riding that leaned Conservative but remained excited about jumping on board the Liberal team.
"I wish her the best in her new choices, and you know, that's something that happens from time to time in politics. It's not great but it's also not the be all and end all," Trudeau told Wells.
"One team lost a member and it went to the other side. It can be an indicator of larger things. It can be just what it is and we'll just stay focused on the things that we're focused on doing."
Asked if he thought other members of his caucus might be considering taking the same path across the aisle, Trudeau said he "certainly" didn't think so, because his caucus members have given him the impression they are fired up and ready to get things done.
Alleslev narrowly defeated former Conservative MP Costas Menegakis — by just 1,093 votes, or 2.2 percentage points — to secure the riding for the Liberals.
Menegakis, who already had been nominated to run again for the Conservatives, tweeted Monday he will stand aside in favour of Alleslev and instead seek the nomination for the neighbouring riding of Richmond Hill.
Speaking to reporters in the foyer of Commons, Scheer said he was "extremely proud" to welcome Alleslev into the Conservative fold. He said that, like many Canadians who voted for Trudeau in the last election, Alleslev now realizes Trudeau is not equipped to deal with the "challenges of our time."
"If, like Leona, you supported Justin Trudeau and the Liberals in the last election and you're frustrated or even angry with the ineffective leadership, know this: you are both welcome and needed in the Conservative Party of Canada. We're going to keep adding to our team," he said.
Scheer said Alleslev will be appointed the party's critic for global security.
Alleslev's departure caps off a summer of disruptive developments for the Liberal government, including protracted NAFTA negotiations, a surprising Federal Court of Appeal decision on the Trans Mountain expansion project (which halted further construction pending some court-ordered fixes by Ottawa) and Alberta Premier Rachel Notley's subsequent decision to pull Alberta out of the national climate plan.
Trudeau said he wished Alleslev well in her career as a Conservative.
"This is something that [is] allowed for in our system," he told reporters in the foyer of the Commons.
"I'm looking forward to getting back in the House to talk about what we're going to be doing for Canadians, what we've been working hard on all summer and over the past three years."
In a subsequent interview with CBC's Power & Politics, Alleslev tried to downplay her July 20 tweet praising the Liberal government, saying she was simply welcoming Trudeau to her riding — as she would any prime minister. By "proud to be part of the team," she said, she merely meant to say she was proud to "be part of the country."
"It was really just to welcome the prime minister to our riding. He should be out in the country and we should always be proud to have, as constituents, the prime minister in our riding," she said.
Scheer said that while Alleslev had been talking to the Conservatives about crossing the floor for some time, nothing was guaranteed until Alleslev stood in the House Monday to announce the switch.
"We have a lot of points in common, but nothing was promised, nothing was guaranteed," he said.
Braeden Caley, a Liberal Party spokesperson, confirmed Alleslev had already met her "community engagement" targets — groundwork every incumbent Liberal MP must do before they can secure the nomination and run again under the party's banner in the 2019 election.
Volunteers in her area met door-knocking requirements more than a month ago, Caley said in an email to CBC News, confirming volunteers had knocked on over 3,500 doors in the riding and/or made 5,000 phone calls with the community.
"The Liberal Electoral District Association in Aurora-Oak Ridges-Richmond Hill has some of the strongest volunteer numbers of any team in Ontario, and that will certainly serve them well in the months ahead," Caley said. "Over 54,000 Ontarians have signed up as new Liberals in the last 2 years alone, a strong vote of confidence in Justin Trudeau's positive progress to deliver real change."
Alleslev did not attend the Liberal caucus retreat in Saskatoon last week as she was travelling in Europe on parliamentary business.
The Conservatives picked off another Liberal seat earlier this year after winning a Quebec by-election in a riding held by a retiring Liberal MP. However, the Liberals have turned two Tory-held seats red since the last election, in B.C. and Quebec respectively.
While the Liberals consistently have outperformed the opposition Conservatives in national opinion polls, the Tories have a financial edge and are outpacing the Liberals in nominating candidates for the next campaign. (The Liberals maintain their fundraising performance has been roughly equal to that of the Conservatives, who spend more money to collect their donations.)
Historically, about two-thirds of MPs who cross the floor and seek re-election under a new party's banner have been successful, bringing a boost in support for their new party in the vast majority of cases.

In the time it took an MP to cross the floor, Trudeau's best-laid plans went sideways
For the PM, the timing couldn't have been worse. For Scheer, it was merely perfect.

I suspect many more defections are coming....this was likely just the beginning.

@Steve Duncan
Bernier's insulting defection has done far more damage to the Cons, than this forgotten lassie has done to the Libs.

The whole country was hopeful PM Trudeau will succeed, unfortunately he wasted his time on selfies, refugees and attending pride parades. Government is a serious business.

well this is what you get from someone in over their head and that wont answer any questions and keeps mumbling the same crap for 3 years, the sunny ways are very cloudy starting to look like a thunder storm . maybe he should have been able to accomplish more in 3 years than legal weed and taking every dime from hard working Canadians to waste on huge deficits for ZERO gain. cya Trudeau your exit will not come quick enough
Jim Oxener
@Steven Arsenault
I do tax returns and people have been taxed much more since Trudeau became PM, what he tells people is not true, people earning the same wages and same tax deducted are only getting 1/2 back of what they used to get resulting in paying more taxes for the year.

6 weeks ago Leona accepted her Riding Association's nomination to run as their Liberal candidate in next year's election. Clearly the excuses she uses for crossing the floor were suspect. What could possibly happen in such a short period to cause her to abandon principle, betray her party and ignore the voice of her voters?

Party affiliation was not put on ballot before 1972...why? If party politics was the driving factor from the start, it should have been put on from the beginning.

Instead of fuzzy language about feminism in trade deals, I want more trade deals that bring high tech jobs to Canada. Instead of lofty speeches about Canada's place in the world, I want more opportunities for Canadian citizens.

JT didn't negotiate ANYTHING with the EU. CETA was negotiated by the previous government. All Trudeau did was sign it and he almost screwed that up.

>>
>> Fredericton, New Brunswick, December 23, 2015
>>
>> PRESENT: The Honourable Mr. Justice Bell
>>
>> BETWEEN:
>>
>> DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
>>
>> Plaintiff
>>
>> and
>>
>> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>
>> Defendant
>>
>> ORDER
>>
>> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
>> December 14, 2015)
>>
>> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
>> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
>> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
>> in its entirety.
>>
>> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
>> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
>> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that letter
>> he stated:
>>
>> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
>> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
>> You are your brother’s keeper.
>>
>> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
>> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
>> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
>> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
>> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
>> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
>> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
>> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
>> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>> Police.
>>
>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
>> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
>> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
>> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
>> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
>> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
>>
>>
>> AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
>> the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion. There
>> is no order as to costs.
>>
>> “B. Richard Bell”
>> Judge
>>
>>
>> Below after the CBC article about your concerns (I made one comment
>> already) you will find the text of just two of many emails I had sent
>> to your office over the years since I first visited it in 2006.
>>
>> I noticed that on July 30, 2009, he was appointed to the the Court
>> Martial Appeal Court of Canada Perhaps you should scroll to the

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.

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.’"

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.’"

Toronto-area Liberal MP Leona Alleslev crosses the floor to join Conservatives
This is first floor crossing the Liberals have faced since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau assumed leadership

“like many Canadians who voted for Trudeau in the last election, now realizes the PM is not equipped to deal with the "challenges of our time."

In the time it took an MP to cross the floor, Trudeau's best-laid plans went sideways
For the PM, the timing couldn't have been worse. For Scheer, it was merely perfect.
There are times when no amount of planning can prepare you for the completely unexpected.
The Liberals returned Monday for the fall sitting of Parliament with a plan to highlight what they see as their success over the past three years in making life better for the middle class, to focus attention on their efforts to diversify Canada's trading partnerships, and to remind voters that they have more money in their pockets today than they did under the Conservatives.
It took a single member of the government's backbench mere minutes to unravel those plans.
Leona Alleslev crossed the floor to join Andrew Scheer's opposition Conservatives, denouncing the prime minister's handling of the economy and his failure, as she put it, to defend Canada's interests at a time of unprecedented instability.
"This is not a strong economy. And our country needs strong leadership."
A defection from the government benches to the opposition is unusual no matter when it happens.
CBC News
Scheer welcomes Alleslev to caucus
But the timing of Alleslev's defection, and her explicit criticism of Trudeau's leadership in her message, gave Scheer two things he desperately needed this week: a reprieve from answering even more questions about Maxime Bernier's defection from the Conservatives, and a human Exhibit A in his role as lead prosecutor making the case that the Liberals are killing this country's reputation and economic foundation.
"If, like Leona, you supported and trusted Justin Trudeau and the Liberals in the last election and you are frustrated, or even angry, with the ineffective leadership, know this," Scheer said directly into the cameras as Alleslev stood by his side. "You are both welcome and needed in the Conservative Party of Canada."
It's not clear how much damage Alleslev's surprise defection will cause the Liberals, but it certainly made for an awkward start to the fall sitting.
The government had selected, as its first item of business, continuing debate on the bill to ratify the Pacific rim trade deal known as the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership.
The government also had prepared for questions on the future of the Trans Mountain Pipeline, having planned an announcement for the near future on how it will formally respond to a court ruling that killed the project's permits by ruling that First Nations hadn't been adequately consulted.
These are the major challenges the Liberals face. It's where they wanted the focus to be on day one. It's what they planned for as the Commons resumed.
Instead, the PM found himself responding to Scheer's allegation that he had presided over a "summer of failure" and that he "just isn't up to the job" of guiding Canada through difficult times.
That last bit was a core theme of the unsuccessful Conservative re-election campaign of three years back. It didn't work then, even though Stephen Harper had a long track record in office. Conservatives seem to think it will work now, under an untested Scheer — a bold move.
What the argument doesn't do, as Liberals pointed out Monday, is tell Canadians what Scheer might do differently.
How, for example, would Scheer have approached dealing with Donald Trump during these tense NAFTA negotiations? How would Conservatives have succeeded in getting the Trans Mountain expansion built after failing to get the project going while in power for nearly a decade? And where, oh where, is the Conservatives' alternative plan to reduce carbon emissions without putting a price on emissions?
And Trudeau repeated the lines again on Monday during question period: the lowest unemployment rate in nearly four decades, the creation of 500,000 full-time jobs and the fastest economic growth among G7 nations last year.
But none of this seems very forward-looking for a government that will be asking voters for another mandate a year from now. Some Liberals admit privately that none of it is the sort of stuff to excite the party's base in a critical period when party nominations are underway and when fundraising is becoming more and more important.
Some even worry that the government is inadvertently providing an opening — slim as it might be — for the New Democrats.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh told reporters on Monday that his party will continue to confront the government with the stories they heard from ordinary Canadians over the summer about their troubles finding affordable housing, or paying for medication.
"While Liberals keep making empty promises that they won't keep … New Democrats are standing up for what matters most to Canadians."
The Liberals expected to be attacked from both sides, of course. What they didn't anticipate was an attack from within. And that requires a new plan for the days ahead.
"If, like Leona, you supported and trusted Justin Trudeau and the Liberals in the last election and you are frustrated, or even angry, with the ineffective leadership, know this," Scheer said directly into the cameras as Alleslev stood by his side. "You are both welcome and needed in the Conservative Party of Canada."
It's not clear how much damage Alleslev's surprise defection will cause the Liberals, but it certainly made for an awkward start to the fall sitting.
The government had selected, as its first item of business, continuing debate on the bill to ratify the Pacific rim trade deal known as the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership.
The choice was calculated. Conservatives support the deal. It also serves to showcase the government's efforts to diversify this country's trade ties with Asian and European nations as NAFTA negotiations drag on — and while U.S. President Donald Trump tries to ratchet up pressure on Canada to sign a deal on his terms by threatening to add tariffs on Canadian-made autos to the ones he's already imposed on steel and aluminum.
The government also had prepared for questions on the future of the Trans Mountain Pipeline, having planned an announcement for the near future on how it will formally respond to a court ruling that killed the project's permits by ruling that First Nations hadn't been adequately consulted.
These are the major challenges the Liberals face. It's where they wanted the focus to be on day one. It's what they planned for as the Commons resumed.
Instead, the PM found himself responding to Scheer's allegation that he had presided over a "summer of failure" and that he "just isn't up to the job" of guiding Canada through difficult times.
The return of 'just not ready'
That last bit was a core theme of the unsuccessful Conservative re-election campaign of three years back. It didn't work then, even though Stephen Harper had a long track record in office. Conservatives seem to think it will work now, under an untested Scheer — a bold move.
What the argument doesn't do, as Liberals pointed out Monday, is tell Canadians what Scheer might do differently.

How would Conservatives have succeeded in getting the Trans Mountain expansion built after failing to get the project going while in power for nearly a decade? And where, oh where, is the Conservatives' alternative plan to reduce carbon emissions without putting a price on emissions?
Liberals insist they have a good news story to tell on the economy during their three years in office.
And Trudeau repeated the lines again on Monday during question period: the lowest unemployment rate in nearly four decades, the creation of 500,000 full-time jobs and the fastest economic growth among G7 nations last year.
The limits of the Liberals' message
But none of this seems very forward-looking for a government that will be asking voters for another mandate a year from now. Some Liberals admit privately that none of it is the sort of stuff to excite the party's base in a critical period when party nominations are underway and when fundraising is becoming more and more important.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh told reporters on Monday that his party will continue to confront the government with the stories they heard from ordinary Canadians over the summer about their troubles finding affordable housing, or paying for medication.
"While Liberals keep making empty promises that they won't keep … New Democrats are standing up for what matters most to Canadians."
The Liberals expected to be attacked from both sides, of course. What they didn't anticipate was an attack from within. And that requires a new plan for the days ahead.
Toronto-area Liberal MP Leona Alleslev crosses the floor to join Conservatives
This is first floor crossing the Liberals have faced since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau assumed leadership
Ontario MP Leona Alleslev is crossing the floor from the Liberals to join the Conservative party caucus — the first such loss for the governing party since the last election.
The floor crossing is a coup for the opposition Tories, who are counting on a breakthrough in suburban Toronto-area ridings like the one held by Alleslev to win them the next federal election.
While Alleslev said Monday she had been thinking about leaving the party for "a while," her Twitter activity over the summer betrays nothing of her dissatisfaction.

Alleslev crosses floor to join Conservatives
Liberal accomplishments since forming government in 2015.
In a July 20 tweet, Alleslev thanked the prime minister for visiting her Aurora riding and said she looked forward to carrying the Liberal banner in the next campaign.
Alleslev explained away her shifting loyalties Monday by saying the Liberal party has not adequately addressed some "foundational challenges" facing Canada. She cited the government's handling of the economy, tax reform, foreign affairs and trading relationships, and what she calls inadequate military spending, as the reasons motivating her to jump from the government bench to the Tories.
Alleslev, a graduate of the Royal Military College and a former captain in the Royal Canadian Air Force, held senior positions at the Department of National Defence, IBM and aerospace manufacturer Bombardier before seeking the Liberal nomination for the Aurora-Oak Ridges-Richmond Hill riding in 2014.
"My attempts to raise my concerns with this government were met with silence," Alleslev said in a speech in the House of Commons announcing her move. "It's my duty to stand and be counted. Our country is at risk. The government must be challenged openly and publicly.
"To my Liberal colleagues, thank you. But my oath is to country, not party and my sacred obligation is to serve my constituents."
This is the first floor crossing the Liberals have faced since Trudeau assumed leadership of the party in 2014.

"I wish her the best in her new choices, and you know, that's something that happens from time to time in politics. It's not great but it's also not the be all and end all," Trudeau told Wells.
"One team lost a member and it went to the other side. It can be an indicator of larger things. It can be just what it is and we'll just stay focused on the things that we're focused on doing."
Asked if he thought other members of his caucus might be considering taking the same path across the aisle, Trudeau said he "certainly" didn't think so, because his caucus members have given him the impression they are fired up and ready to get things done.
Trudeau on Leona Alleslev crossing the floor
Alleslev previously served as a parliamentary secretary to the minister of Public Services and Procurement between November 2015 and January 2017. She was replaced by Quebec MP Steven MacKinnon, a former national director of the Liberal Party.Alleslev narrowly defeated former Conservative MP Costas Menegakis — by just 1,093 votes, or 2.2 percentage points — to secure the riding for the Liberals.
Menegakis, who already had been nominated to run again for the Conservatives, tweeted Monday he will stand aside in favour of Alleslev and instead seek the nomination for the neighbouring riding of Richmond Hill.
Speaking to reporters in the foyer of Commons, Scheer said he was "extremely proud" to welcome Alleslev into the Conservative fold. He said that, like many Canadians who voted for Trudeau in the last election, Alleslev now realizes Trudeau is not equipped to deal with the "challenges of our time."
"If, like Leona, you supported Justin Trudeau and the Liberals in the last election and you're frustrated or even angry with the ineffective leadership, know this: you are both welcome and needed in the Conservative Party of Canada. We're going to keep adding to our team," he said.
Scheer said Alleslev will be appointed the party's critic for global security.
Tough summer for Liberals
Alleslev's departure caps off a summer of disruptive developments for the Liberal government, including protracted NAFTA negotiations, a surprising Federal Court of Appeal decision on the Trans Mountain expansion project (which halted further construction pending some court-ordered fixes by Ottawa) and Alberta Premier Rachel Notley's subsequent decision to pull Alberta out of the national climate plan.
Trudeau said he wished Alleslev well in her career as a Conservative.
"This is something that [is] allowed for in our system," he told reporters in the foyer of the Commons.
"I'm looking forward to getting back in the House to talk about what we're going to be doing for Canadians, what we've been working hard on all summer and over the past three years."
"It was really just to welcome the prime minister to our riding. He should be out in the country and we should always be proud to have, as constituents, the prime minister in our riding," she said.
Scheer said that while Alleslev had been talking to the Conservatives about crossing the floor for some time, nothing was guaranteed until Alleslev stood in the House Monday to announce the switch.
"We have a lot of points in common, but nothing was promised, nothing was guaranteed," he said.
Braeden Caley, a Liberal Party spokesperson, confirmed Alleslev had already met her "community engagement" targets — groundwork every incumbent Liberal MP must do before they can secure the nomination and run again under the party's banner in the 2019 election.
Volunteers in her area met door-knocking requirements more than a month ago, Caley said in an email to CBC News, confirming volunteers had knocked on over 3,500 doors in the riding and/or made 5,000 phone calls with the community.
"The Liberal Electoral District Association in Aurora-Oak Ridges-Richmond Hill has some of the strongest volunteer numbers of any team in Ontario, and that will certainly serve them well in the months ahead," Caley said. "Over 54,000 Ontarians have signed up as new Liberals in the last 2 years alone, a strong vote of confidence in Justin Trudeau's positive progress to deliver real change."
Alleslev did not attend the Liberal caucus retreat in Saskatoon last week as she was travelling in Europe on parliamentary business.
The Conservatives picked off another Liberal seat earlier this year after winning a Quebec by-election in a riding held by a retiring Liberal MP. However, the Liberals have turned two Tory-held seats red since the last election, in B.C. and Quebec respectively.
Historically, about two-thirds of MPs who cross the floor and seek re-election under a new party's banner have been successful, bringing a boost in support for their new party in the vast majority of cases.
