Trust that don't believe one word that Jeannot Volpé has to say on the topic.

Everybody knows that his former politcal boss Bernie Lord promised to
reverse the LIEbrano actions of changing the primary source of wood if
and when he won his first mandate and then the Conservatives NEVER
did.

Industry dispute with wood marketing boards needs government action, says ex-minister

Jeannot Volpé says marketing board should be 'primary source' of wood for industry on trial basis

By Connell Smith, CBC News Posted: Feb 06, 2017 6:30 AM AT

Former New Brunswick natural resources minister Jeannot Volpé says it is time for the province to show leadership in the dispute between industry and woodlot marketing boards.

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

The so-called "primary source" rule was abandoned in 1992 but should be reintroduced on a trial basis, says Volpe, who was minister of natural resources and energy from 1999 to 2003 in the Bernard Lord government.

Volpé says a current lawsuit launched by J.D. Irving will only do more damage to already struggling woodlot groups.

"Going to those courts costs a lot of money," said Volpé. "And for a marketing board to invest $100,000 in a court case, it's a lot of money. For a big company who will recover it over cheaper wood long-term, it's an investment."

Lawsuit filed by J.D. Irving


J.D. Irving has filed a legal action against the SNB Forest Products Marketing Board and the SNB Wood Co-operative.

The lawsuit asks the Court of Queen's Bench to declare a contract between the SNB Forest Products Marketing Board and its sister group, the SNB Wood Cooperative, unlawful.

It is the latest in a series of moves by J.D. Irving to break the hold New Brunswick's wood marketing boards have over sales from private woodlots.

At the root of the case is a January 2016 order issued by the co-operative declaring that wood from private woodlots can only be sold to the marketing board, and wood purchasers can only buy from the board.

The dispute dates back decades but the most recent round began in 2012 when J.D. Irving Ltd. stopped signing contracts to buy wood from the SNB Forest Products Marketing Board.

Along the way, J.D. Irving Ltd. lost appeals to both the New Brunswick Forest Products Commission and the New Brunswick Court of Appeal.

Despite those setbacks the company continues to contract wood sales directly with private woodlot owners, rather than with SNB.

It has also filed a second appeal to the Forest Products Commission arguing that the SNB board's order is not valid.

'It seems like industry's got all the cards.' - Jeannot Volpé, ex-natural resources minister

Volpé says there have been times in past decades when marketing boards failed to honour contracts made with the big companies.

But the pendulum, he says, has swung in the other direction.

"Right now it's moved to the other way around where it seems like industry's got all the cards," said Volpé. "This is for government to decide and [they] don't seem to be ready to do it."

Irving defends its purchase record


In a written statement J.D. Irving vice-president Jason Limongelli defended the lawsuit and the company's record of purchasing from private woodlots.

"This is not a lawsuit against woodlot owners or wood producers," said Limongelli. "The application is intended to prevent disruption to the flow of private wood and protect the manner in which wood purchases have been successfully conducted over the past number of years."

The company's allegations have not been tested in court.

Limongelli goes on to say the company's purchase of private wood has increased 200 per cent over the past 10 years.

"This year, JDI's private wood and stumpage purchase programs resulted in a record volume of private wood purchases," said Limongelli.

"The company has purchased 46 per cent more wood than last year, and are on track for the highest volume of private wood purchases in the company's history."

J.D. Irving did not respond to a question by CBC News for the company's position on the role of the forest product marketing boards.

Jean Bertin responded in an email on behalf of the government, which he said supports "the current practices" for wood flow.

"Private wood harvest levels have steadily increased since 2010 and continue to flow at high levels in 2016/17. Private woodlot volumes have returned to similar levels experienced before the economic downturn in 2007.

"With the current levels of private wood harvesting back to historic levels, there does not appear to be a market issue."

Bertin said the closure of pulp mills has created an oversupply of low-grade material in the Atlantic region and the province is looking to find other uses for low-grade material.

J.D. Irving launches suit against woodlot groups

Legal action follows attempt by SNB board to assert authority over wood purchases

By Connell Smith, CBC News Posted: Feb 02, 2017 6:30 AM AT

The lawsuit follows an order by SNB that industry must buy its wood from the marketing board rather than from individual woodlot owners.
The lawsuit follows an order by SNB that industry must buy its wood from the marketing board rather than from individual woodlot owners. (Jacques Boissinot - Canadian Press)

J.D. Irving Ltd. has launched a lawsuit against two groups representing private woodlot owners in southern New Brunswick.

The outcome could have far-reaching implications for the way private wood is bought and sold in New Brunswick and the price obtained by individual woodlot owners.

The lawsuit asks the Court of Queen's Bench to declare a contract between the SNB Forest Products Marketing Board and its sister group, the SNB Wood Cooperative, unlawful.

At the root of the case is a 2015 order issued by the co-operative declaring that wood from private woodlots can only be sold to the marketing board, and wood purchasers can only buy from the board.
JDI stopped buying wood from SNB in 2012 but has been making deals directly with woodlot owners within SNB's provincially designated boundaries.

In its statement of claim, JDI says the SNB marketing board has unlawfully delegated its powers to the SNB co-operative.

In issuing its order, SNB cited the province's Natural Products Act.

"JDI is directly and adversely affected by the unlawful delegation of the SNB Board's powers and function to the Co-op," the company says in its statement of claim.

Allegations not tested in court


The company's allegations have not been tested in court.

Another company, AV Group, with mills in Nackawick and Atholville, has applied to be an intervener in the case, suggesting the implications could be felt provincewide.

"It's going to be a challenging few years for the industry," said Susannah Banks, manager of the New Brunswick Federation of Woodlot Owners. "There is a move toward more direct contracts with brokers as opposed to contracts with marketing boards."

david coon
'It's a classic case of injustice,' says Green Party Leader David Coon. (CBC)

Green Party Leader David Coon said woodlot owners are being hurt while the province fails to enforce its own regulations specifying that a fixed proportion of wood must be purchased from private woodlots before Crown wood can be harvested.

"It's a classic case of injustice," said Coon.

"Can you imagine if family farmers were treated this way or lobster fishermen were treated this way? There would be a revolution in parts of New Brunswick."

It's an issue New Brunswick's auditor general, Kim MacPherson, waded into in her 2015 report.

"We have concluded the Department of Natural Resources does not meet its principal responsibilities under legislation respecting timber supply from private forest lands," said the report.

"The Department's failure to comply with its own legislation and provide leadership on private wood supply issues through a well-defined role and clear objectives contributes to uncertainty for private woodlot owners and conflicts within the marketing board system."

Both SNB's general manager, Pam Folkins, and J.D. Irving's Mary Keith said they cannot comment on the lawsuit because the matter is before the courts.

Bruce Northrup seeks appeal of ruling Windsor Energy's testing in
Sussex was legal
Former natural resources minister asking New Brunswick Court of Appeal
to hear appeal of Nov. 3 decision
By Alan White, CBC News Posted: Dec 01, 2016 3:43 PM AT

Former natural resources minister Bruce Northrup is asking New
Brunswick's highest court to hear an appeal of a recent decision that
Windsor Energy Inc.'s seismic testing in Sussex in 2011 was legal.

Northrup is being sued by the oil and gas company and its president,
Khalid Amin, for $105 million in damages for publicly stating the
company violated the provincial Oil and Natural Gas Act by carrying
out seismic testing in Sussex without permission from the
municipality.

However, in a Nov. 3 decision, Court of Queen's Bench Justice Judy
Clendening ruled municipal permission wasn't needed because the
company's permit had the authorization of the provincial
Transportation Department to test within the right-of-way of Highway
1, which runs through Sussex and is where the testing was being
carried out.

    Windsor Energy's 2011 seismic testing in Sussex was legal: judge

"It is clear that the plaintiffs did not need prior written consent
from the municipality," Clendening said in her decision.

"The plaintiffs do not require consent unless the testing is carried
out on municipal land."
The word 'or' at issue

Clendening's ruling dealt with the interpretation of Section 17 (1) of
the Oil and Natural Gas Act. It states a company with a permit shall
not work:

    Within the bounds of a municipality unless it has the
municipality's consent in writing, or
    Within any highway right-of-way without the written consent of the
district transportation engineer.

hi-nb-windsor-energy

Windsor Energy carried out seismic testing in the right-of-way for
Highway 1 in Sussex in 2011 with the authorization of the
transportation department.

Clendening ruled that because of the "or" in the subsection,
permission is needed from either the municipality or the
transportation department, not from both.

Northup's lawyers are now asking the New Brunswick Court of Appeal to
hear an appeal of that decision. They contend Clendenning made errors
in law by:

    Failing to read the words of Section 17 (1) of the Oil and Natural
Gas Act "in their grammatical and ordinary sense."
    Substituting "on municipal land" for the phrase "within the bounds
of a municipality
    Substituting the "New Brunswick Highway Corporation" for the
"district transportation engineer"
    Interpreting the word "or" between paragraphs (a)  and (b) of the
subsection as being exclusive and prioritizing (b) over (a).

Arguments on Northrup's motion seeking leave to appeal the ruling are
to be heard by a justice of the Court of Appeal on Dec. 12.
Amin not surprised

Windsor Energy Inc. president and CEO Khalid Amin is not surprised
Bruce Northrup is asking for an appeal to be heard of a recent ruling
that his company's seismic testing in Sussex in 2011 was legal. (CBC)

Northrup's request for an appeal to be heard doesn't surprise Amin.

"We certainly expected that," Amin said. "Obviously, I would say
[Clendening's ruling] is detrimental to their defence.

"If we didn't violate the Oil and Natural Gas Act as they allege, he's
gone out of his way to harm Windsor Energy by making statements and
then taking the file to the RCMP.

    Bruce Northrup stands by his actions in Windsor Energy dispute
    N.B. files RCMP complaint against Windsor Energy

"He was coming after us pretty heavy in the media and that made
national news, not just local New Brunswick news."

The initial lawsuit for defamation, injurious falsehood and
misfeasance in public office also named the provincial government as a
respondent, but Windsor Energy and Amin agreed to drop the province
from the lawsuit after another court ruling found their claims fall
outside the type of claims permitted under the Proceedings Against the
Crown Act.

Amin said dropping the province doesn't change the damages being
sought from Northrup, who was acting as a minister of the Crown.

"That doesn't change at all, but obviously that's up to a judge
ordering a judgment," said Amin.

"There's a lot of room between where we are today and what that would entitle."

The statement of claim in the lawsuit states negative publicity
resulting from the case drove away potential investors, which led to
the company losing its exploration licences.

I know that you people and CBC think I am joke. However I think even
less of you. It seems to me that you people wish forget that you draw
your fancy wages and later collect big pensions sourced from the tax
dollars of my fellow Canadains who you purportedly serve in an ethical
fashion YEA Right just like the old document hereto attached attests..

SUSSEX - GOLD FOUND AND BERNARD LORD'S OPINION!!!!

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.’"

Little David Amos’ “True History Of War” Canadian Airstrikes And
Stupid Justin Trudeau

Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide
behind Amerka’s and NATO’s skirts.

When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien
actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign
in Iraq, the Coalition of the Willing. This was against or contrary to
the wisdom or advice of those of us Canadian officers that were
involved in the initial planning phases of that operation. There were
significant concern in our planning cell, and NDHQ about of the dearth
of concern for operational guidance, direction, and forces for
operations after the initial occupation of Iraq. At the “last minute”
Prime Minister Chretien and the Liberal government changed its mind.
The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not
deploy combat troops for the Iraq campaign, but would deploy a
Canadian Battle Group to Afghanistan, enabling our amerkan cousins to
redeploy troops from there to Iraq. The PMO’s thinking that it was
less costly to deploy Canadian Forces to Afghanistan than Iraq. But
alas no one seems to remind the Liberals of Prime Minister Chretien’s
then grossly incorrect assumption. Notwithstanding Jean Chretien’s
incompetence and stupidity, the Canadian Army was heroic,
professional, punched well above it’s weight, and the PPCLI Battle
Group, is credited with “saving Afghanistan” during the Panjway
campaign of 2006.

What Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don’t tell you now, is that then
Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chretien committed, and deployed the
Canadian army to Canada’s longest “war” without the advice, consent,
support, or vote of the Canadian Parliament.

What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling
chattering classes are too addled to understand is the deployment of
less than 75 special operations troops, and what is known by planners
as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a
deployment of a Battle Group, nor a “war” make.

The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have
the “constitutional authority” to commit the Canadian nation to war.
That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by
constitutional scholar Phillippe Legasse. What Parliament can do is
remove “confidence” in The Crown’s Government in a “vote of
non-confidence.” That could not happen to the Chretien Government
regarding deployment to Afghanistan, and it won’t happen in this
instance with the conservative majority in The Commons regarding a
limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.

President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror
attacks in New York; that the Taliban “occupied” and “failed state”
Afghanistan was the source of logistical support, command and control,
and training for the Al Quaeda war of terror against the world. The
initial defeat, and removal from control of Afghanistan was vital and
essential for the security and tranquility of the developed world. An
ISIS “caliphate,” in the Middle East, no matter how small, is a clear
and present danger to the entire world. This “occupied state,”
or“failed state” will prosecute an unending Islamic inspired war of
terror against not only the “western world,” but Arab states
“moderate” or not, as well. The security, safety, and tranquility of
Canada and Canadians are just at risk now with the emergence of an
ISIS“caliphate” no matter how large or small, as it was with the
Taliban and Al Quaeda “marriage” in Afghanistan.

One of the everlasting “legacies” of the “Trudeau the Elder’s dynasty
was Canada and successive Liberal governments cowering behind the
amerkan’s nuclear and conventional military shield, at the same time
denigrating, insulting them, opposing them, and at the same time
self-aggrandizing ourselves as “peace keepers,” and progenitors of
“world peace.” Canada failed. The United States of Amerka, NATO, the
G7 and or G20 will no longer permit that sort of sanctimonious
behavior from Canada or its government any longer. And Prime Minister
Stephen Harper, Foreign Minister John Baird , and Cabinet are fully
cognizant of that reality. Even if some editorial boards, and pundits
are not.

Justin, Trudeau “the younger” is reprising the time “honoured” liberal
mantra, and tradition of expecting the amerkans or the rest of the
world to do “the heavy lifting.” Justin Trudeau and his “butt buddy”
David Amos are telling Canadians that we can guarantee our security
and safety by expecting other nations to fight for us. That Canada can
and should attempt to guarantee Canadians safety by providing
“humanitarian aid” somewhere, and call a sitting US president a “war
criminal.” This morning Australia announced they too, were sending
tactical aircraft to eliminate the menace of an ISIS “caliphate.”

In one sense Prime Minister Harper is every bit the scoundrel Trudeau
“the elder” and Jean ‘the crook” Chretien was. Just As Trudeau, and
successive Liberal governments delighted in diminishing,
marginalizing, under funding Canadian Forces, and sending Canadian
military men and women to die with inadequate kit and modern
equipment; so too is Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Canada’s F-18s are
antiquated, poorly equipped, and ought to have been replaced five
years ago. But alas, there won’t be single RCAF fighter jock that
won’t go, or won’t want to go, to make Canada safe or safer.

My Grandfather served this country. My father served this country. My
Uncle served this country. And I have served this country. Justin
Trudeau has not served Canada in any way. Thomas Mulcair has not
served this country in any way. Liberals and so called social
democrats haven’t served this country in any way. David Amos, and
other drooling fools have not served this great nation in any way. Yet
these fools are more than prepared to ensure their, our safety to
other nations, and then criticize them for doing so.

Canada must again, now, “do our bit” to guarantee our own security,
and tranquility, but also that of the world. Canada has never before
shirked its responsibility to its citizens and that of the world.

Prime Minister Harper will not permit this country to do so now

I talked to Don Newman earlier this week before the beancounters David

that he should at least Google SOUCOM and David Amos It would be wise
if he check ALL of CBC's sources before he publishes something else

"But Lang, defence minister McCallum's chief of staff, says military
brass were not entirely forthcoming on the issue. For instance, he
says, even McCallum initially didn't know those soldiers were helping
to plan the invasion of Iraq up to the highest levels of command,
including a Canadian general.

That general is Walt Natynczyk, now Canada's chief of defence staff,
who eight months after the invasion became deputy commander of 35,000
U.S. soldiers and other allied forces in Iraq. Lang says Natynczyk was
also part of the team of mainly senior U.S. military brass that helped
prepare for the invasion from a mobile command in Kuwait."

http://baconfat53.blogspot.com/2010/06/canada-and-united-states.html

"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 current military thought, that
folks like Colin Powell and "Stuffy" Leighton and others elucidated
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 involvement in an Iraq operation....History would prove them
correct. The political pressure being applied on the PMO from the
George W Bush administration was onerous

American military assets were extremely overstretched, and Canadian
military assets even more so It was proposed by the PMO that Canadian
naval platforms would deploy to assist in naval quarantine 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 capital.. and the priority of which
....not necessarily in that order. "

You can bet that I called these sneaky Yankees again today EH John
Adams? of the CSE within the DND?

Good afternoon Mr. Amos

In response to your recent e-mail, please note:

·         I called you on Tuesday morning because you called and left
a voice mail for me on Monday. (I did not call you back right away on
Monday because I was at home helping to look after my daughter, who
came down with chickenpox over the week-end.)

·         I am not aware of anyone checking your work on the internet
last Friday.

·         I do not know who sent you an anonymous e-mail on Friday.

·         I have not contacted the RCMP in this regard.

·         I admit that I did not read your email and all its
attachments closely.

·         I “presumed” that you “wanted to talk about electronic
filing” during our call yesterday because (a) that is what you
indicated in your voice mail on Monday that you wanted to talk about
(in your voice-mail message of Monday, March 21, you say: “I want to
discuss what I have been researching about electronic filing, and I
see your name in these documents”), and (b) that is what you were
actually talking about on the call yesterday.

·         I do not deny my knowledge of your assertion that there is
evidence of your possession of police surveillance wiretap tapes filed
in the Public Record of Federal Court.


Best regards, Andrew

Roger Brown of the Crown Corp known and his CBC buddies

Chucky and everybody else and his dog have speculated about the
reasons behind Bourque's senselss rampage but I took a wide berth of
that madness. I have had nothing say about it just like with my friend
Dick Oland's murder. I was hoping that the truth would come out during
the trials.Now that his son has been denied bail I will say that I too
don't believe that Dennis was Dick's killer. As for young Bourque
nothing excuses what he defintely did. Many people would like to know
what caused him to go off like he did and no doubt legions of members
of the RCMP are curious as well.. but the evil Librano lawyer David
Lutz made certain that the truth will never be known to the chagrin of
many other lawyers..




I heard Cpl Horsmen confess Chucky that he gave his old boss Gary
Forward a fancy new job.

Somebody should ask me why that did not surprise me.


Codiac RCMP officers found not responsible for man's death
Fredericton Police Force investigation says Daniel Levesque, 30, died
as a result of stab wounds CBC News Posted: May 23, 2014 10:51 AM AT

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/codiac-rcmp-officers-found-not-responsible-for-man-s-death-1.2651801



http://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/untold-story-justin-bourque/

June 15, 2014

The untold story of Justin Bourque

by Tamsin McMahon, Michael Friscolanti and Martin Patriquin

“I don’t know what caused this,” Victor Bourque, Justin’s father,
tells Maclean’s. “A gentle soul like him who wouldn’t hurt a fly all
of a sudden flips over, so there’s something there that’s unanswered
and we’ll only find out as time goes along. Everybody will have to be
patient.”

In the meantime, one chilling possibility has emerged: that Bourque
was bent on revenge, seeking supposed “justice” for a dead Moncton
man, Dan Levesque, who was shot four times last July by a pair of RCMP
officers. At a press conference just two weeks before Bourque walked
out of his trailer for the final time, investigators cleared the two
Mounties of any wrongdoing.

At least one of Levesque’s friends seemed convinced that Bourque was
out for revenge that bloody night. “He’s doing this for us I love this
guy,” the friend posted on Facebook, while the drama was still
unfolding. “He’s righting all the wrongs.”

"If the ensuing investigation unearths any connection to Dan
Levesque’s death, May 23 was a critical day. The Fredericton Police
Service, called in to investigate last July’s shooting, held a press
conference that Friday, exonerating the RCMP officers who shot
Levesque. In fact, Insp. Gary Forward said none of the Mounties’ four
bullets struck a vital organ—and that Levesque ultimately died of the
knife wounds he sustained prior to being shot, not the bullets. (Who
stabbed Levesque, and why, is still under investigation.)

The same day as the news conference, Bourque’s mom and dad posted a
quote to their joint Facebook account. “Sometime you have to stop
worrying, wondering, and doubting,” it read. “Have faith that things
will work out, maybe not how you planned, but just how it’s meant to
be.”

What motorcycles are you talking about? I know you had possesion of

possesion. That figures,EH?

It seems to me that all of Chucky's pals and half of your butt

in truth just like you they are just cry baby greedy crooks living off
the fat of the land.

The mindless Cpl. Reilly was obviously acting against me under orders
from MacKnight. That is why I stopped the videos to listen to what
they were saying. No doubt later MacKnight blamed the circus on
Reilly. Small wonder the Fat Fred City Finest ignored my Freedom of
Information demands and made my Harley and the Yankee wiretap tapes in
its saddlebag evaporate EH?


That said there was some interesting news yesterday though. Alan White
and his very corrupt CBC cronies already know I enjoyed it and pounced
on it in Twitter before I called three lawyers again. Now I will make
the most of it to the max in short order. You have my word on that.

Bruce Northrup seeks appeal of ruling Windsor Energy's testing in
Sussex was legal
Former natural resources minister asking New Brunswick Court of Appeal
to hear appeal of Nov. 3 decision
By Alan White, CBC News Posted: Dec 01, 2016 3:43 PM AT

Former natural resources minister Bruce Northrup is asking New
Brunswick's highest court to hear an appeal of a recent decision that
Windsor Energy Inc.'s seismic testing in Sussex in 2011 was legal.

Northrup is being sued by the oil and gas company and its president,
Khalid Amin, for $105 million in damages for publicly stating the
company violated the provincial Oil and Natural Gas Act by carrying
out seismic testing in Sussex without permission from the
municipality.

However, in a Nov. 3 decision, Court of Queen's Bench Justice Judy
Clendening ruled municipal permission wasn't needed because the
company's permit had the authorization of the provincial
Transportation Department to test within the right-of-way of Highway
1, which runs through Sussex and is where the testing was being
carried out.

    Windsor Energy's 2011 seismic testing in Sussex was legal: judge

"It is clear that the plaintiffs did not need prior written consent
from the municipality," Clendening said in her decision.

"The plaintiffs do not require consent unless the testing is carried
out on municipal land."
The word 'or' at issue

Clendening's ruling dealt with the interpretation of Section 17 (1) of
the Oil and Natural Gas Act. It states a company with a permit shall
not work:

    Within the bounds of a municipality unless it has the
municipality's consent in writing, or
    Within any highway right-of-way without the written consent of the
district transportation engineer.

hi-nb-windsor-energy

Windsor Energy carried out seismic testing in the right-of-way for
Highway 1 in Sussex in 2011 with the authorization of the
transportation department.

Clendening ruled that because of the "or" in the subsection,
permission is needed from either the municipality or the
transportation department, not from both.

Northup's lawyers are now asking the New Brunswick Court of Appeal to
hear an appeal of that decision. They contend Clendenning made errors
in law by:

    Failing to read the words of Section 17 (1) of the Oil and Natural
Gas Act "in their grammatical and ordinary sense."
    Substituting "on municipal land" for the phrase "within the bounds
of a municipality
    Substituting the "New Brunswick Highway Corporation" for the
"district transportation engineer"
    Interpreting the word "or" between paragraphs (a)  and (b) of the
subsection as being exclusive and prioritizing (b) over (a).

Arguments on Northrup's motion seeking leave to appeal the ruling are
to be heard by a justice of the Court of Appeal on Dec. 12.
Amin not surprised

Windsor Energy Inc. president and CEO Khalid Amin is not surprised
Bruce Northrup is asking for an appeal to be heard of a recent ruling
that his company's seismic testing in Sussex in 2011 was legal. (CBC)

Northrup's request for an appeal to be heard doesn't surprise Amin.

"We certainly expected that," Amin said. "Obviously, I would say
[Clendening's ruling] is detrimental to their defence.

"If we didn't violate the Oil and Natural Gas Act as they allege, he's
gone out of his way to harm Windsor Energy by making statements and
then taking the file to the RCMP.

    Bruce Northrup stands by his actions in Windsor Energy dispute
    N.B. files RCMP complaint against Windsor Energy

"He was coming after us pretty heavy in the media and that made
national news, not just local New Brunswick news."

The initial lawsuit for defamation, injurious falsehood and
misfeasance in public office also named the provincial government as a
respondent, but Windsor Energy and Amin agreed to drop the province
from the lawsuit after another court ruling found their claims fall
outside the type of claims permitted under the Proceedings Against the
Crown Act.

Amin said dropping the province doesn't change the damages being
sought from Northrup, who was acting as a minister of the Crown.

"That doesn't change at all, but obviously that's up to a judge
ordering a judgment," said Amin.

"There's a lot of room between where we are today and what that would entitle."

The statement of claim in the lawsuit states negative publicity
resulting from the case drove away potential investors, which led to
the company losing its exploration licences.

Sussex mayor denounces seismic testing company
Seismotion official says waiting for council vote would have cost $60,000

CBC News

October 19, 2011

Sussex councillors are upset that seismic testing went ahead in their
town before it was given approval. (CBC)

Sussex Mayor Ralph Carr is denouncing the tactics of a seismic
surveying company as a "monumental" mistake after it pushed ahead with
tests without the town's approval.

The Town of Sussex is now asking Premier David Alward and his
Progressive Conservative government to take action against Seismotion,
which performed tests inside Sussex boundaries on Monday.

"It's a blunder, a big blunder. They should not have done that," Carr said.

"For such a contentious issue and divisive issue that is taking place
in our province, especially southern New Brunswick, they should have
bowed out and said, 'We'll come back or we'll go by you.' Anything,
but do what they did."

Sussex is situated in an area that is believed to be a prime location
for the shale gas industry. But Carr said that some people in his
community are wary of the shale gas industry.

The mayor said the company's actions will make this already divisive
issue even worse in his town.

The Sussex council has sent an unanimous letter to the Alward
government requesting the provincial government take action against
the company.

Sussex Mayor Ralph Carr said the company's decision to perform the
testing was a monumental mistake. (CBC)

Sussex mayor’s stern reaction is being reinforced by many of his councillors.

Seismotion originally asked for town approval to do tests within the
community, and councillors arranged the Tuesday meeting just ahead of
the company's scheduled arrival.

But when Seismotion crews found themselves in Sussex two days ahead of
schedule, the company decided not to wait for town consent.

Marc Thorne, the town's deputy mayor, said it's unfortunate the
company pressed ahead with its work despite knowing when the local
council was going to hold its vote.

"They had decided that since the timeframe that they had established
with us wasn't accommodating their accelerated schedule they just went
ahead and did the work. We were angry. We were frustrated," Thorne
said.

"It was done. It was in violation of the act. And there needs to be
consequences," said Coun. Mark Wright.

Coun. Shelley Bradley did not hold back her frustrations when a
Seismotion representative appeared at a council meeting on Tuesday
night.

"When a company goes ahead and does this. Just like completely ignores
the rules, completely just basically says, ‘You know what? Screw you
guys,’" Bradley said.

Alek Dupras, the company's permit agent, said the company has permits
from the departments of Natural Resources and Transportation that
cover testing along highway one even within town limits.

"Waiting for this … meeting represented too much money so they chose
to go forward, understanding they had all the permits necessary for
that," Dupras said.

Seismotion is doing the testing for Windsor Energy.

Mario Levesque, the president of Seismotion, said waiting two days
would have cost $60,000 and he's running out of time to get the work
done. The trucks are going back to Alberta on Oct. 26.

Testing has now moved east between Sussex and Alma.
Latest shale gas controversy

This is the latest controversy in the contentious issue of shale gas
exploration.

Last week, Hampton councillors voted to block seismic testing in town
limits after roughly 70 residents held a peaceful protest.

Hampton is about 40 kilometres southwest of Sussex.

There have been protests across southern New Brunswick against shale
gas exploration and hydro-fracking.

The largest anti-shale gas rally was at the legislature in the summer
when roughly 1,000 protesters amassed in Fredericton.

Alward has said he believes the industry is important to the province,
but he has committed to imposing the toughest standards on the
continent on companies operating in New Brunswick.

He's also said New Brunswickers need to embrace the industry as part
of a new approach to boosting the economy.

By-Elections In Hampton And Sussex Today
Posted on Monday, December 8, 2014 05:58 AM

It will be a cold trek to the polls today with municipal by-elections
being held in Sussex and Hampton to fill vacant seats on the two town
councils.

The vacancy in Hampton is because Gary Crossman was elected as the
M-L-A for the Conservatives.

In Sussex, Mark Wright has left to join the RCMP.

The four candidates in Hampton are Chris Rendell, who unsuccessfully
tried to run for the NDP provincially, Mark Reid, who owns an
accounting firm, forester Todd Beach and businessman Robert
Signoretti.

In Sussex, the candidates are former town councillor Kevin Black,
construction worker Melody McKnight, Carl McLellen, a carpenter,
former RCMP officer Graham Milner and life coach Matt White.

>
> This is really a tale of two provinces, two peoples, and two cultures.
> In maritime kanada generally, and Fredericton specifically there are

> prostitutes. Charles Leblanc is a lay about, a bum, a social welfare
> parasite, a mental defective, convicted criminal, panhandler and con

> Fredericton is a pedophile. He has been under investigation by
> Fredericton Police, and other Canadian law enforcement agencies for
> some years now. His inter-net provider has been freely cooperating
> with police to eventually convict this criminal. Charles Leblanc has
> already been convicted of a violent assault. Mr. Leblanc has
> pathetically tried to disperse allegations against himself, by
> "accusing the entire Fredericton police force pedophiles, drug
> dealers, steroid monkies, deep into heavy drugs, racists, and being
> "maudit Quebecois."
>
> Charles Leblanc is diagnosed bipolar, sociopathic, having ADHD,
> epilepsy, being a moron, and a mental defective. Charles Leblanc would

> child porn, such an inter-net panhandler, and societal freeloader.
> Charles Leblanc likes drum up sympathy by telling the "cyber-world" he
> is the "product of a broken home." But the truth is, both his parents
> threw him out of the family home at 20 years old because he was a
> thief, freeloader, a lay about, and a fucker of children. To this day
> Charles Leblanc is despised by his Mother an Father.
>
> Charles Leblanc impersonates a "journalist" as he uses his blog to
> get people to give him, cameras, computer equipment, police scanners,
> beer, free dinners, flat screen TVs, furniture, clothing, use of cars,
> and any cash he can get. Charles Leblanc is a classic example of a New
