Mactaquac is not a good idea because it will put too much stress on our
finances. But, it may be possible for Milltown Dam because it should be
less costly and provide renewable energy.

to @David R. Amos: I was talking about Joy Scientific the company that
can remove hydrogen from water and NB Power investment (fate) in it. It
must be a freudian slip.
Trevis L.
Kingston Does anyone know how much a Kilowatt hour cost in 1883?
Probably, being new, electricity cost more than today.

Reply to @Trevis L.
Kingston: Methinks how much more we will pay in a month or so should
concern you more but then again nobody cared when NB Power and the EUB
illegally barred me from 2 rate increase hearings in a row. However I am
still raising hell in the 357 Matter and that hearing is what this sort
of nonsense is about N'esy Pas?

Kingston: Probably a flat fee like water used to be in most
jurisdictions before a salesman convinced them that buying meters would
make more money.

Reply to @David R. Amos: Your ridiculous litigation rep preceded you ? Any relation to that Zed chick?
David R. Amos
Reply to @Al Clark:
Yes NB Power and the liberal appointed Commissioner (one I ran against
in 2004) used a decision against the pal of the Zed woman against me.
The aforementioned decision was made by Morrison who was the lawyer
who worked for NB Power when Paul Zed and i intervened in the Emera
pipeline project in 2006 while Bernie Lord was firing the former PUB.Methinks
you and your lawyer buddies may wish to pull my files in Federal court
and the EUB matters numbered 357, 375 and 430 before you embarrass
yourself with any more insulting questions N'esy Pas?

Amos: LOL I'll get more satisfaction pulling something I've got right
here. Further, I once thought of going into law. Experiences in the past
decade have shown me that a conscience is a drawback......
David R. Amos
Reply to @Al Clark:
Pull whatever you wish Trust that I will never understand your sense of
humour. Methinks a conscience serves decent folks very well as does
common law and common sense. Hence the reason why I have no idea why you
think my troubles with corrupt public official i are even remotely
funny. I do agree that it has been a quite circus since my former
friends in the RCMP first attacked me in 1982 after they had hired me to
investigate their work and testify as to the truth of a matter. However
when The Crown had to pay off a widow to ettle a wrongful death
lawsuit with our tax dollars that was definitely not funny
Trevis L.
Kingston Sorry... meant 1893.
Paul Krumm So
why did NBPower, over the past few years, install new transformers, new
distribution compound, rip out trees, rewind the turbines, install new
fish ladders, new spillway crane, new signs, etc., etc? Surely they must
have known that these $millions were just a waste, surely they had the
foresight to know it was a waste of money. Surely they will recognize
this incompetence and...... probably give a bonus to whoever was
responsible.
Sam Brown
Reply to @Paul Krumm:
Depends on how you define waste.....
Those projects did circulate money in the NB economy .....
Is that a waste ?

Mac Isaac When
this plant and dam is being dismantled, PLEASE remember to actively
consult and work with the Passamaquoddy people so we don't have one more
mistake that will cost all of us in dollars and hurt feelings. Enough
damage has already been done to those people and the St. Croix. Don't
exacerbate the problem.

The MIlltown dam was attached to the former St. Croix Cotton Mill, which closed in 1957. (New Brunswick Archives/P33-83a)
A part of the St. Stephen landscape that has stood for almost 140 years may soon be dismantled.
NB
Power has announced plans to decommission the Milltown Generating
Station, said to be the oldest operating hydroelectric dam in Canada.
The
dam and power station on the St. Croix River can be seen from the
town's main street, Milltown Boulevard. They were originally built in
1881, to power a cotton mill. It's one of the oldest hydroelectric
plants in the world.
According
to National Geographic, the "oldest" distinction belongs to a plant on
the Fox River in Appleton, Wisc., which began operating on Sept. 30,
1882.
The Milltown dam was built in 1881. (New Brunswick Archives/P128-248)
And

in a wall during renovations of an old photography shop. (Submitted by Darren McCabe)
According to Canada's Historic Places, the Milltown power plant went into operation in June 1882.
But
it originally used mechanical power, not electric power, "transferred
to the mill through a system of belts and line shafts," according The Milltown Story by the late St. Stephen historian Doug Dougherty.
In
1887, a rope-driven turbine generator was installed, said Darren
McCabe, who accepted the mantle of town historian from Dougherty.
Power
generation then expanded. By 1893, the station was supplying power to
some homes in Milltown. And by 1911, it was the main power source for
all surrounding communities on both sides of the border.
"It was
very advanced. … we were certainly one of the first areas to have
electric power on this side of the border," McCabe said.
NB Power has only owned the generating station since the late 1950s or early 1960s, when the cotton mill was already shut down.
But Phil Landry, the executive director of generation and engineering, recognizes that it's a historically significant place.
"Anytime
you have … a facility in a community for 140 years there's definitely
an attachment that also needs to be considered when we're making these
decisions."
In this case, Landry said, decommissioning the dam and power station will save tens of millions of dollars.
The
station is no longer viable, he said. Three of its seven units don't
work, while the other four require "significant" investment. And the
"antiquated" fish passage would also require spending.
The dam provided power for the mill as well as St. Stephen, Milltown and the Maine communities of Calais and Milltown. (Historic Places Canada)
Milltown accounts for less than one per cent of NB Power's hydro generation, said Landry, which should be easily offset.
Still, there are many steps the utility must take before dam removal can happen.
NB
Power has been in contact with government and Indigenous officials
about its intentions, said Landry, but more consultation and an
environmental impact assessment will be required, which will also entail
detailed engineering plans.
An open house is planned for July 11,
at the Royal Canadian Legion in St. Stephen from noon to 4 p.m., when
members of the public can ask questions.
Environmental
impact filings should be made this fall, according to NB Power, but
dismantling would likely not be complete until late 2021 or early 2022.
Three
employees work at the station. NB Power said one of them is retiring,
and the other two have been given work in other parts of the company.
The
picturesque site of the former cotton mill attracts tourists with
cameras and is sometimes used for timber championships and other
community events. (My New Brunswick)
NB Power wants to decommission the Milltown dam, saying it generates only .8 per cent of the utility's hydro power. (Historic Places Canada)
McCabe, the historian, has mixed feelings about the prospect of the dam being removed.
"It's very significant," he said.
"It's
intrinsically woven into the fabric of the community's history.
However, before even that, Salmon Falls, where it's located, that's
basically sacred ground for the Passamaquoddy people."
The entire operation, including the cotton mill, was a major economic driver, employing more than 1,000 people at its peak.
After
the mill closed in 1957, the generating station remained a tourist
attraction, because its rope-driven generator was the oldest of its kind
in the world.
McCabe said he's seen comments on social media from people saddened about possibly losing that piece of history.

140 year old Milltown generating station to be decommissioned

The Milltown dam is the
oldest one operating in Canada. Decommissioning the dam will reestablish
the river and about 16 kilometres of additional spawning habitat for
the fish that cannot currently pass the dam.
Phil Landry is the
executive director of generation and engineering for NB Power. 7:15
But
he also points out that for millennia before the dam was built, the
Salmon Falls area was used as a seasonal fishing campsite and a burial
ground.
"For seven generations, we've never known what a true run of the river looks like."
Removing
the dam should allow some fish species, including salmon and alewives,
also known as gaspereau, to go up river to spawn, said Landry.
He quantified it as an additional five million square metres of habitat.
McCabe
said if the decommissioning is done properly, it could result in an
educational and promotional project that would serve all stakeholders
well.
He said that would include some kind of a display on the site that tells "the complete story" of Salmon Falls.
Karenna Williams and her father Paul Williams at the Supreme Court of Canada in December 2016. (Supplied)
Karenna Williams
has only been in a courtroom with her father once. And that one time
just happened to be at the Supreme Court of Canada.
"It was amazingly special to be in the same courtroom as my father," she said.
Williams
and her father are both lawyers, working in Indigenous law, for
Indigenous peoples, from different ends of the country. Her dad, Paul
Williams, works from his home office in Six Nations. Karenna, who is
Turtle Clan Mohawk, works at a firm in Vancouver.
But in December 2016, Williams and Williams came together and donned their robes in Ottawa — to challenge a decision made by a B.C. minister to approve a ski resort development in the Jumbo Valley.
"To
see my dad, wearing the same thing as me, knowing that this is where a
lot of history gets made, to be there with him was very
overwhelming," Karenna said.
Paul Williams addressed the court as an intervenor, speaking on behalf of the Passamaquoddy people of New Brunswick.
The proposed Jumbo Glacier resort is the subject of a religious rights claim put forward by the Ktunaxa Nation.
"I
was so overwhelmingly proud of him when he was
presenting," Karenna said, comparing herself to a proud parent watching
their child at a recital.
"I just felt like elbowing the lawyer sitting next to me going, 'That's my Dad, that's my Dad!'"
The Supreme Court of Canada has yet to release its decision in the Ktunaxa case.
Karenna said
that while she hasn't been a lawyer for very long, that day in court
with her father will likely be the pinnacle of her legal career.
"As
a child following in the footsteps of your parents you often are left
with exactly that impression, that you're following them. And of course,
everything that I do is following the example that both of my parents
have set for me," she said.
"But because of the way that court
case unfolded, it ended up being that my father was stepping into the
case that we had started. And that was very exciting for me, to know
that we had both arrived in this courtroom really on our own merits."

Passamaquoddy
minute and background document posted
by vince
We are pleased to
announce that on October 21st, 2013, New Brunswick
Quakers approved a minute
petitioning the Canadian Government to
recognize the Passamaquoddy people as
a first nation in Canada. Follow
these links to see
the minute,
and
a document containing background information.
Much
of the information presented here was taken from the document,
“Passamaquoddy
Journey” produced in 2007 by Paul Williams for the
Schoodic Band of
Passamaquoddy. That document was presented to the
Government of Canada as
justification for the recognition of the
Passamaquoddy Peoples in Canada. To
date recognition has not been
granted and the Passamaquoddy continue to press
their case.

Monday.

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.

Bell”

article about your concerns (I made one comment

Introduction

2015, David Raymond Amos (Mr. Amos)

(the Claim) in Federal Court

Mr. Amos claims $11 million

On November 12, 2015 (Docket T-1557-15), by way of a

brought by the Crown, a prothonotary of the Federal Court (the

Prothonotary) struck the Claim in its entirety, without leave to

on the basis that it was plain and obvious that the Claim

reasonable claim, the Claim was fundamentally vexatious,

could not be salvaged by way of further amendment (the

Order).

93), by way of Mr.

Mr. Amos appealed and the Crown cross-appealed the

Judgment. Further to the issuance of a Notice of Status

Amos’ appeal was dismissed for delay on December 19, 2016.

The nature of the alleged conflict of Justice Webb is

The documents that he submitted in relation to the

Mr. Amos’ position is that simply because Justice Webb

lawyer with Patterson Palmer, he now has a conflict. In Wewaykum

Band v. Her Majesty the Queen, 2003 SCC 45, [2003] 2 S.C.R.

Supreme Court of Canada noted that disqualification of a

determined based on whether there is a reasonable

bias:

the

de

Energy
> Board, …[[1978] 1 S.C.R. 369, 68 D.L.R. (3d) 716], at p. 394, is
the

must be a reasonable one, held by

applying themselves to the

information. In the words

would an informed person,

practically -- and having thought

he think that it is more likely

whether consciously or

fairly."

> [17] The issue to be determined is whether an
informed

having

allegations

Court has

Appeal in Rando Drugs Ltd. v.

(leave to appeal to the Supreme
> Court of Canada refused, 32285 (August
1, 2007)), addressed the
> particular issue of whether a judge is
disqualified from hearing a
> case simply because he had been a member of
a law firm that was

judge. The Ontario
> Court of Appeal determined that the judge was not
disqualified if the

matter when he was a

that the rules for

different from the

conflict:
> 27 Thus, disqualification is not the natural corollary
to a

that had Mr. Patterson been
