RCMP probes tainted blood with the FBI
Variety of matters discussed about prison-plasma imports
Mark Kennedy
The Ottawa Citizen
The RCMP and FBI have held discussions about how contaminated plasma from
American prisons was shipped to Canada in the 1980s, says a spokesman for
Canadian tainted-blood victims.
Erma Chapman, president of the Canadian Hemophilia Society, said she was
given
this information last month by a member of a special task force of Mounties
conducting a criminal investigation into the tainted-blood scandal.
Ms. Chapman said she was informed by the task force's "victim liaison
officer" that Mounties had travelled to the United States and met with
representatives of the FBI.
She says she was told they discussed a variety of matters, including how
plasma was collected from inmates in Arkansas and Louisiana prisons in the early
'80s and sold to a blood broker in Montreal.
"My understanding is they went to discuss this with the FBI,"said Ms.
Chapman. "I think it was more to provide the FBI with information than the other way
around."
There's no evidence to indicate the FBI has begun its own criminal probe,
but Ms. Chapman said it's encouraging to learn that at least the U.S. police
force has been made aware of the prison-plasma fiasco.
Next week, Canadian tainted-blood victims will travel to Washington to hold
a news conference. They will demand a special investigation by the U.S.
Justice Department into how they got bad blood from American prisons.
RCMP Cpl. Gilles Moreau confirmed that the Mounties have, as part of their
year-old probe, met with the FBI. But he could not elaborate because to do
so might "jeopardize"the investigation.
"We don't get into specifics. What we can say is, yes, we have gone to the
States, and when we go there, we do talk to the authorities there because we
have to notify them that we are talking to people in their jurisdictions."
Mr. Moreau said the Mounties, as a matter of policy, can't even specify which
aspects of the tainted-blood tragedy they are examining, beyond saying "we
are looking at all aspects of the blood distribution system."
The prison-plasma story is one of the many "aspects" in the contamination of
the Canadian blood supply with HIV and hepatitis C. It has attracted new
interest among victims and the U.S. media since the Citizen began a series
of investigative reports last September.
The Citizen revealed that the firm that collected the plasma from inmates in
the Arkansas prison had links to U.S. President Bill Clinton, who was
governor of the state in the 1980s.
The RCMP criminal probe, established in the wake of the Krever report on the
tainted-blood tragedy, has been comprehensive. The task force has mushroomed
to 24 full-time staff.
So far, investigators have interviewed about 600 people and travelled to
countries such as the U.S., Germany and the Netherlands. Of those interviews,
100 have been tape-recorded so the evidence can be compared with other
interviews and documents.
The team has amassed more than 30,000 documents and is using a special
computer system to zero in on key information. The Mounties are still
calling on people who have not yet come forward to call a toll-free
tips line: 1-888-530-1111.
Mr. Moreau said the RCMP will conduct a timely but thorough investigation.
"Of course, we can't charge people for crimes that occurred in the States
because our jurisdiction is in Canada."
That is exactly why victims want the FBI involved.
Ms. Chapman said she hopes the Feb. 24 news conference in Washington will
spark a "groundswell demand for information. It's going to hinge on the extent to
which the American public perceives this as a problem.
"There are so many questions to be asked. People have tried very much to not
look at that seamier side of the blood business."

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.’"
