An Alberta lawyer who appeared on Fox News to discuss the province joining the United States is facing professional misconduct allegations in a separate case, with claims he “threatened criminal charges, including for murder, in an attempt to gain a benefit for a client.”

Jeffrey Rath, a Foothills-based lawyer specializing in treaty and Indigenous rights and environmental law, said in an interview with Fox & Friends Thursday he plans to lead a “delegation” to Washington, D.C., to seek a meeting with Trump administration officials to discuss statehood for Alberta.

Rath said “hundreds” of Albertans have reached out about joining the group, and they are interested in discussions “to explore the benefits of either Alberta becoming an independent sovereign nation with economic union to the United States, becoming a U.S. territory, or pursuing full statehood.”

Rath cited the carbon tax and equalization as justification for the move and claimed Albertans have more in common with states like Montana than Eastern Canada.

Fox billed Rath as an Alberta lawyer in both its headlines and onscreen chyrons.

According to his publicly accessible Law Society of Alberta page, Rath is facing seven citations for alleged unprofessional conduct. The citations have not been proven and a disciplinary hearing has not been scheduled.

In a phone call with Postmedia following his Fox appearance, Rath denied the allegations.

“They’re all in the process of being resolved, and especially the most explosive one — the one alleging that I would actually be stupid enough to threaten murder charges to resolve a civil dispute — is factually incorrect, and that is not what happened, period, full stop,” he said.

Five of the citations are dated Oct. 22, 2024. In addition to the claim he threatened criminal charges, the citations allege Rath:

• “Sent correspondence and communicated in a manner that was discourteous, offensive or otherwise inconsistent with the proper tone of professional communication from a lawyer”
• “Took steps in the representation of a client that were clearly without merit”
• “Unreasonably delayed the process of a tribunal”
• “Sent correspondence directly to an opposing party when he knew or ought to have known that person was represented by a lawyer”

Rath is also facing two citations dated June 18, 2024. One claims he “failed to be candid” with the federal court and Crown counsel by “misrepresenting” at a case management conference that he was still counsel for a client who terminated his services and told him to transfer the file to another lawyer.

Rath is also alleged to have “failed to co-operate with a successor lawyer and delayed the transfer of a file following being discharged by his client.”

All the citations state the alleged conduct is “deserving of sanction.”

Law society spokesperson Colleen Brown said she could not provide additional information about the citations. Rath’s Law Society of Alberta page, which goes back to 2015, shows no disciplinary record.

Describing the complaints process generally, Brown said: “When the conduct of lawyers is brought to the law society’s attention, each matter is reviewed according to a process that is fair, transparent and consistent for both the lawyer involved and those providing the information.”

“Most of the complaints reviewed by the conduct department are dismissed or resolved without a hearing,” she said. “The conduct committee determines which matters go to hearing.”

The Law Society of Alberta’s hearings page lists three separate upcoming hearings for Rath on the allegations, though no dates have been set, and Rath said he does expect the hearings to occur. Brown confirmed there are three separate proceedings “at this time,” but the hearing tribunal is “not positive that it will proceed that way.”

‘No enthusiasm’ for statehood: Smith

January polling by Angus Reid shows 90 per cent of Canadians oppose the idea of joining the United States. Alberta showed the strongest levels of pro-51st state support, with 18 per cent backing secession.

Postmedia contacted Premier Danielle Smith’s office about Rath’s Fox appearance and was referred to her earlier comments about a billboard advocating that Alberta join the United States.

“I see no enthusiasm for that notion,” Smith said last month. “What I have seen is the opposite. I have seen so many Canadians and Albertans in particular reaching out and saying we’ve got to put Canada first, we’ve got to tear down interprovincial trade barriers, we’ve got to find new markets, we’ve got to support each other in building new pipeline infrastructure.

“So I don’t think there’s a lot of enthusiasm for what the billboard says or what the president has been talking about.”

I couldn’t be more proud of our president of the Calgary-Lougheed Constituency Association, Darrell Komick, for receiving this year’s Exceptional Constituency Association President award at the UCP AGM. Darrell is a committed and principled conservative who sets the bar high.

Komick’s swastika comments “outrageous and inflammatory”, Premier says

Sep 23, 2024 | Featured, Politics

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith

Marco Levytsky, NP-UN Western Bureau Chief.

Calgary Lougheed United Conservative Party Constituency Association President Darrell Komick’s comments that Ukrainian evacuees came here with “zero screening” and are “walking around with swastikas” are “outrageous and inflammatory”, says Alberta Premier Danielle Smith.

“I told him he was wrong, and I told him what our solution was – that we have worked with our incredible diaspora to settle 70,000 people who have come here,” she stated in response to a question from New Pathway – Ukrainian News during a virtual roundtable with the multicultural media September 19.

“When we look at the number who are requiring additional supports, it’s only 1700 which says to me that that has been incredibly successful. I have no idea what he was talking about. He was unable to provide any verification of his statement. It was outrageous and inflammatory, and I told him so at the time. But I think that the settlement of Ukrainian evacuees has been one of the greatest success stories we have had in our province,” she added.

Asked further whether she would make those comments public, Smith replied: “I did at the time. I just said that he was wrong and that that is not what I have seen and he wasn’t able to say anything other than his own personal observation.”

The original question was:

“On July 30 at the Town Hall meeting of the Calgary Lougheed UCP Constituency Association, its president, Darrell Komick, was reported as saying Ukrainian evacuees have come to Alberta with ‘zero screening’ which is totally false and added that they are now walking around with swastikas. That last statement is not only totally false but can be interpreted as a violation of Article 319 of the Criminal Code of Canada which refers to the incitement of hatred against an identifiable group. Is this report accurate, and so, will you condemn this hateful remark and have Komick removed as president of the association?”

Smith did not reply whether she would have Komick removed.

'Cruel' tariff threats bring endless uncertainty to N.B. fisheries

Constantly changing deadline is destabilizing, says Lobster Council of Canada

 

Sam Farley · CBC News · Posted: Mar 07, 2025 6:00 AM AST 

 

 

Geoff Irvine says with lobster season in some parts of Atlantic Canada opening next month, producers are unsure if buyers will still be interested if tariffs take shape. (CBC/Radio-Canada)

Leaders in New Brunswick's fishing industry are not mincing words when it comes to the cloud of uncertainty hanging over the constant back and forth of tariff threats from U.S. President Donald Trump.

"Oh, it's painful. It's painful," said Geoff Irvine, executive director of the Lobster Council of Canada, in an interview with CBC Radio's Shift, just minutes after Trump delayed tariffs on Canada for a second time.

"It's almost worse with the tariffs being on the back and forth and the up and down. It's very difficult for businesses to deal with this," Irvine said.

The latest date for tariffs to take effect, now set for April 2, coincides with the opening of lobster season in some sectors of the Atlantic region, but that's about all Irvine could say for certain about the potential impact.

"Honestly, I don't have a clue. Every single processor, shipper and exporter will have to talk to their customers."

He said the constantly changing news is destabilizing.

"It's very painful. And think about the harvesters who have to buy bait and plan for their fishing season — without knowing what the biggest market is going to pay for their products."

WATCH | 'There'll be more indecision, and it makes it very difficult to plan,' says Geoff Irvine:

 

   On again, off again trade war ‘terrible’ for lobster market, industry says

 

The U.S. is Canada’s biggest customer when it comes to lobster exports, and the threat of tariffs makes planning for the spring season difficult, says Geoff Irvine, executive director of the Lobster Council of Canada.

Despite recently embarking on a trade mission to Europe to explore diversifying Canadian markets for lobster, the U.S. remains a major partner.

Out of about $3 billion worth of Canadian lobster exported last year, Irvine said 55 per cent is frozen, out of which 75 per cent goes to the United States, which puts the province at more risk.

• Snow crab industry predicts 'real trouble' if Trump carries out tariff threat

"It's sort of pandemic-level worry and uncertainty. And it's cruel. It's cruel, and it's not okay," Irvine said.

The rest of the exported Canadian lobster is live, with 40 per cent of that going to the U.S., 40 per cent to China, and the rest elsewhere, he said.

"People understand that we're dealing in an international protein market and things happen. But this from our best customer, our best ally and neighbour, is really cruel and unusual."

'No one has a crystal ball,' MP says 

Lobster is far from the only fishery affected.

Speaking at an event announcing federal funding for shrimp processors on the Acadian Peninsula to diversify into the redfish industry, Bathurst-Acadie MP Serge Cormier acknowledged that tariffs were likely on everyone's mind. 

"No one has a crystal ball, no one, we don't know," Cormier said in French, referring to the uncertainty. 

Cormier said he was part of a recent mission to Washington, D.C., to meet with politicians to explain the severity of the proposed tariffs and how inter-connected U.S. and Canadian fishery producers and buyers are. 

Speaking to a room of fishery industry leaders on the Acadian Peninsula, MP Serge Cormier asked them to engage with U.S. buyers about the impacts tariffs would have. (Babatundé Lawani/Radio-Canada)

"I think that it opened the eyes of many people, and I encourage you to do it, too," Cormier told the crowd, which included many fishing industry leaders from the region.

"I encourage you to contact your customers, your suppliers that you have, your associations that you do business with, to make them aware of how damaging these tariffs will not only be for Canada, but will be damaging for them."

Speaking to a reporter, Cormier said that if tariffs do come down, "all kinds of options are on the table" from the federal government, in terms of supporting workers in the fisheries, including possible changes to Employment Insurance benefits.

The snow crab season is also starting soon under threat of sweeping tariffs. (Terry Roberts/CBC)

The snow crab fishery is also close to opening in the waters of northeastern New Brunswick.

Joël Gionet, president of the Association des crabiers acadiens, said his industry has been closely watching tariff developments.

"If the price of crab increases by 25 per cent on the markets, what will the consumer do? He might switch to other products," Gionet said in French.

• N.B. wants to soften the blow of U.S. tariffs. Local businesses say they'll need the help

• N.B. forestry towns on edge as U.S. tariffs, duties pile up

"I spoke to a few buyers and it's the same, they don't know. They are waiting to meet their buyers to see how it will work."

Despite tariff threats, Gionet said the snow crab market is strong in the United States this year because of the low Canadian dollar and prices that have increased about 50 per cent in the past year.

Tariffs have caused 'chaos, confusion' for Nova Scotia's seafood sector

'We’ll get through it,' says Fisheries Minister Kent Smith

 

Jean Laroche · CBC News · Posted: Mar 06, 2025 8:43 PM AST

 

 

Nova Scotia Fisheries Minister Kent Smith says the current tariff dispute with the United States has caused a previously unknown level of upheaval for the province's seafood industry. (CBC)

Nova Scotians in the seafood industry are used to dealing with uncertainty, whether it's rough seas, the ebb and flow of market prices or rising costs — but the provincial fisheries minister says the current tariff dispute with the United States has caused a previously unknown level of upheaval. 

Kent Smith asked a staffer to connect with industry players this week to find out how they were coping with the prospect of U.S. President Donald Trump's new tariffs.

"A common theme across the board was uncertainty, chaos, confusion, not necessarily understanding how to pay, who to pay," Smith told reporters Thursday at Province House. "There was a lot of chaos."

Speaking before the latest pause on 25 per cent tariffs on Canadian imports, Smith said it was imperative for the industry to find markets other than the U.S., and that search would take him and industry representatives south of the border later this month for the Boston Seafood Expo.

"I appreciate the irony, yes, but we need to connect our exporters with importers," said Smith. "It just so happens that this international seafood show takes place in Boston, and that's where the buyers and importers will be from all over the world. We'll be doing everything that we can to connect our exporters with international buyers."

N.S. sent over $1B worth of seafood to U.S. in 2024

Nova Scotia is Canada's top seafood exporter, sending $1.23 billion worth to the U.S. in 2024. For comparison, $614 million worth was exported to China last year and another $241 million to the European Union.

Smith said he's hoping that local companies will be able to, at the very least, make new connections ahead of the world's largest seafood show in Spain later this spring.

"I've heard that a lot of relationships get initiated in Boston and then by the time we get to Barcelona in May, we get some deals done, and some product actually moving from one place to another," he said.

• 2 large N.S. exporters say they're prepared for U.S. tariffs

• Seafood sector is united in face of tariff threats, says N.L.'s fisheries minister

Premier Tim Houston told reporters, before Washington announced the latest "pause" on some but not all tariffs, that temporary measures were not the least bit helpful or appreciated.

"The one month, one month, one month, it's incredibly mean-spirited," said Houston. "We can't live for four years, one month at a time.

"So I'm hopeful that the tariffs come off and the president realizes the damage he'll do to the American economy and the Canadian economy."

'We'll get through it,' N.S. fisheries minister says

Smith tried to put a brave face on what has been an incredibly disruptive few weeks for the seafood industry.

"Crises are not foreign for our province to deal with," said Smith. "This one is causing a lot of uncertainty.

"We'll get through it."

In exactly two months, Newfoundland and Labrador's next premier will be announced.

The Liberal Party of Newfoundland and Labrador (LPNL) announced the race for leadership has begun on Monday.

Nominations close on March 24, then a leadership convention in St. John's from May 2-3 will announce the party's next leader — and next premier of the province.

After four and a half years at the post, Premier Andrew Furey announced he was resigning last week, but would stay in the role until a new leader was chosen.

Members of the leadership election committee are Judy Morrow, Ashley Power-Stack, John Allan, Anna Wadden and Michael King.

"We have assembled a group of devoted LPNL officials to oversee this grassroots driven process for the selection of our next leader," said chair Morrow as part of the party's news release on Monday.

"I look forward to this exciting process that will engage with registered Liberals and the general public of Newfoundland and Labrador during a very pivotal time in the history of our province."

To be eligible to vote in the leadership convention, a person must have been a registered Liberal between Jan. 1, 2024, and March 31, 2025, as well as meet all other criteria outlined in the party's rules.

Statement from the Premier in Response to U.S. Tariff

• Executive Council

March 4, 2025

Statement from the Honourable Dr. Andrew Furey, Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador:

“Newfoundland and Labrador has had a long, meaningful relationship with the United States: From our longstanding ties through the fishery, to the modern technology industry, from hosting President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill in Placentia Bay during the heights of the Second World War to declare the Atlantic Charter, to supporting our neighbours during the tragedy of 9/11.

The U.S. is Canada’s – and Newfoundland and Labrador’s – biggest trading partner. And we will not stand by while this relationship is unlawfully and unjustly harmed.

Now, more than ever, we should be supporting local and Canadian-made products where possible. We will be removing U.S. products from Newfoundland and Labrador Liquor Corporation shelves, and reviewing and stopping immediately, where possible, procurement from the U.S.

We will identify new export markets for Newfoundland and Labrador products with a series of market development and expansion initiatives, deepening our connections with Europe and beyond to grow our trading opportunities. And we will continue robust collaboration with industry, community, and labour organizations through our roundtable on Canada-U.S. trade relations in light of the U.S. President’s illegal actions against us.

We stand with Team Canada as we stand strong, together.

Our identity, our values and our sovereignty will give us the strength to stand against any bully. We remain the true north strong and free.”

Seafood sector is united in face of tariff threats, says N.L.'s fisheries minister

Fishery roundtable holds first meeting, with focus on new markets and possible government help

CBC News · Posted: Feb 05, 2025 5:19 PM AST

 

 

Newfoundland and Labrador's Fisheries Minister Gerry Byrne hosted a virtual meeting Wednesday of the newly created fishery roundtable, which is discussing ways to navigate this critical industry through the threat of tariffs by U.S. President Donald Trump. (Terry Roberts/CBC)

A unified effort to navigate the Newfoundland and Labrador seafood industry through the uncertainty of U.S. tariff threats began on Wednesday, with more than two dozen people joining by video conference in the first fishery roundtable meeting.

The meeting was chaired by Fisheries Minister Gerry Byrne, who described the discussions as "one of the best meetings I've ever hosted."

The meeting was spawned from a broader premier's roundtable that was assembled last month in response to a threat from U.S. President Donald Trump to place a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods entering the U.S. market, including seafood.

Unity is often hard to find in the fishing industry, but competitors and rivals appear to have put aside their differences in the face of this threat.

Joining the meeting were leaders in all sectors of the fishery, including union leaders, processors, harvesters, marketing specialists and the aquaculture industry.

"The meeting went exceptionally well," said Byrne, who spoke with reporters at the conclusion of the 90-minute meeting on Wednesday.

Among those taking part were Dwan Street, president of the Fish, Food and Allied Workers union, and Jeff Loder, executive director with the Association of Seafood Producers.

The threat of big border taxes is causing widespread anxiety in this critical industry, despite Trump's decision on Monday to pause tariffs for 30 days.

His chaotic approach to trade has kick started a movement to reduce the dependency on U.S. consumers, and search for new seafood markets, not only in Asia and Europe, but also at home in Canada.

Such an effort will take time, and likely won't reduce the heavy dependence on the U.S. market this year, but could diversify the marketplace for future harvests, said Byrne.

"We need to get involved and put our efforts toward the existing Canadian market," he said.

The provincial government is kicking in nearly $6 million as seed money for the market diversification effort, to be spent over two years.

How and when will this money flow? Who will be eligible? Those details will be worked out ahead of the next roundtable meeting, which could happen "as early as a week from now," said Byrne.

But, he said, all sectors of the industry will be able to tap into the funding for things like trade missions and financing help for new domestic and foreign export ventures.

N.L. promising to lead unified effort for fishery in face of tariffs

 

A meeting between the province, the ASP, and the FFAW was held on Wednesday about the future of the fishing industry with the uncertainty of tariff threats. As the CBC’s Terry Roberts reports, Fisheries Minister Gerry Byrne is promising to help steer the sector through these uncharted waters.

Byrne is also calling on the federal government to help the diversification effort through financing and export insurance support by agencies such as Export Development Canada.

And if the fishery is hammered by tariffs, discussions are underway for an Ottawa-funded income support program.

But Byrne is not ruling out direct support from the province.

"We will never abandon them on the economic side of this industry and we will not abandon our workers who may be impacted by this," he said.

WATCH | The CBC's Terry Roberts reports on the united fishery:

Seafood harvesters landed 125 million pounds of snow crab at Newfoundland and Labrador ports in 2024, according to Fisheries Minister Gerry Byrne, making it the largest crab harvest in the world. Nearly all of that crab, or 96 per cent, was exported to the United States. (Terry Roberts/CBC)

Meanwhile, the trade talk is coming at a delicate time.

The fisheries union and processors are locked in negotiations for a wharf price. And with the threat of a 25 per cent tariff on the table, the climate for such talks have rarely been this complicated.

But united scenes like the one on Monday, when leaders from the FFAW and ASP held a joint news conference, are a cause for hope, said Byrne.

"I have never seen a more cooperative, collegial of effort and response," he said.

And there's added pressure because all sides want to start the crab harvest two weeks earlier this year — on March 15.

Before that can happen, however, the federal government will have to sign off on an earlier start to the harvest.

RNC pursuing charges after police horses struck during protest

Fish harvesters blame police for man's broken hip

CBC News · Posted: Mar 20, 2024 3:27 PM ADT

 

 

Police horse struck during harvesters’ protest over fisheries regulations

Duration 0:24

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary says it is pursuing charges against individuals who struck two police horses, which led to the mounted unit retreating from the protest site Wednesday.

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary says it's pursuing criminal charges after two of its police horses were struck during a tense exchange with fish harvesters and police outside Confederation Building on Wednesday.

"There are specific Criminal Code violations for injuries against a law enforcement animal which will be pursued," wrote RNC communications director Danielle Barron in an email.

Barron pointed to the charge of wilfully causing unnecessary pain, suffering or injury to an animal or a bird.

• Armed with injunction against harvesters, Furey hopes to push delayed budget forward

Video captured by CBC News shows one man slapping a police horse on the hindquarters and another pulling on the horse's harness as the animals closed in on individuals blocking the entrance. It is unclear which incident the police force is referring to when discussing the potential of laying charges.

During a news conference hours later, Premier Andrew Furey said there was a "fairly significant injury" to one RNC officer, who was seen being taken away by ambulance. No details have been released on the severity of the injury; however, the RNC said the injury occurred during a "rush" from protesters.

"Some of the videos that I've seen punching horses and assaulting individuals … that's unacceptable and the police have a job to do and as they will continue to do today," Furey said. 

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary says two of its horses were struck by demonstrators which forced the mounted unit to retreat from the area. (Mark Quinn/CBC)

During that same skirmish as police attempted — and failed — to escort public servants into the building, fish harvester Richard Martin of Shoe Cove was injured and taken to hospital.

John Efford Jr. told CBC News that Martin broke his hip after an exchange with police.

Video from the scene does not show what happens before Martin is on the ground.

"This is your fault, motherf--ker," another fisherman yells, pointing to a police officer. "You should be ashamed of yourself."

Fish harvester Jason Sullivan called the injury "needless."

"You could tell by the way that people were congregated around the entrances that, you know, no one was getting in. There was no need of the RNC running at people with horses, trying to drive them and scare them away," Sullivan said. 

In a statement released shortly before 3:30 p.m. NT, the RNC said its response was "not unlike other demonstrations of similar size" and it respects the right to a peaceful protest. 

"We continue to ask that all demonstrators remain respectful, peaceful and lawful," the statement says.

"Disruptive activities may lead to arrests and criminal charges under relevant Criminal Code sections, for example mischief, causing a disturbance, unlawful assembly, etc."

Statement from Minister Loveless on Fisheries Discussions

March 22, 2024

The Honourable Elvis Loveless, Minister of Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture, issued the enclosed statement regarding meetings held with FFAW and some of its harvester members.

“Earlier today, I met with Greg Pretty, President of the Fish, Food and Allied Workers Union (FFAW), and some of the union’s harvester members to continue discussions regarding agreeable changes that will move the fishing industry forward for the benefit of all Newfoundlanders and Labradorians, particularly those in more rural communities.

I am pleased to share that it was a productive meeting that has led to positive outcomes intended to support FFAW harvesters, plant workers, and all stakeholders in our province’s valuable fishing industry. We all share the same goal of seeing an organized start to the 2024 fishing season.

Our government will continue to work with the FFAW, the Association of Seafood Producers, and other fisheries stakeholders on these and other issues in the fishery as we continue to recognize the value of the industry and the hard-working individuals working within it.”

MEDIA RELEASE: Harvester & Processor Reps Walk Out of Capelin Advisory, Extremist ENGOs Appointed Participants

Home » MEDIA RELEASE: Harvester & Processor Reps Walk Out of Capelin Advisory, Extremist ENGOs Appointed Participants

March 22, 2024

The 2+3 Capelin advisory kicked off this morning in Gander, with virtual and in person participation. Late this morning, participants were informed that ENGOs Oceans North and Oceana were changed from observer to stakeholder status, giving the extremist organizations who actively work to shut down the commercial fishery an active seat at the table. Harvesters and processors, who both hold true stakeholder status in the advisory processes, agreed that there is no place for these types of organizations at the table. These representatives walked out of the meeting in protest of DFO’s decision, and the meeting ended without the presentation of science information.

FFAW Responds to ASP Media Statement, Lack of Capacity Still Core of Protests 

Home » FFAW Responds to ASP Media Statement, Lack of Capacity Still Core of Protests 

March 21, 2024

FFAW adamantly disputes ASP’s claim that lifting provincial processing caps will harm existing processing plant workers. To be clear, the vast majority of fish harvesters in Newfoundland and Labrador experience trouble finding a reliable buyer for their catch. 

This is not a one-off problem, in a single fishery. This is a widespread, systemic issue facing the provincial processing landscape in our province. 

FFAW-Unifor inherently supports keeping work in our province. Longer seasons and more work is better for everyone involved in the inshore fishery. 

Harvesters are not able to land their allotted quotas because the plant they are tied to either refuses to – or cannot due to caps – buy their product. Combined with dramatic decreases in prices last year, and similarly dramatic increases in expenses, the inshore owner-operator fishery is confronting an acute breaking point.  

Thousands of owner-operator enterprises are facing bankruptcy, while the small handful of corporations that control the fishery get bigger and bigger. Competition in recent years has declined significantly. ASP member companies employ nearly half the crab processing workers now than when the province had similar quota levels. 

Unfortunately, processing companies tell their workers that increasing market access for harvesters will mean losing their jobs. This is a lie, and a harmful one that drives our membership apart. 

In recent years, rather than improve work for Newfoundlanders and Labradorians, the majority of ASP member companies have focused on bringing in Temporary Foreign Workers. If these companies were so committed to coastal communities, emphasis would be put on finding ways to recruit and retain local workforce. 

More competition is better for our fishery. It is better for fish harvesters, better for plant workers, and better for the long-term sustainability of coastal communities. Because one cannot survive without the other.

Demonstrations will continue tomorrow, Friday, March 22, 2024!

Moncton business community worries about losing French consulate

French consulate in Moncton says it will close in 2022 to save money
CBC News · Posted: Nov 25, 2019 7:01 PM AT

"The Greater Moncton Chamber of Commerce and 3+ Corporation are
sending a letter to French Prime Minister Édouard Philippe, asking him
to keep Moncton's French consulate open.

The French government recently announced it plans to close the Moncton
office in 2022 to save money. Johan Schitterer, the general consul of
France for Atlantic Canada, would not say how much it costs to operate
Moncton's consulate.

Moncton's consulate employs four people. Schitterer said it's not
clear what would happen with those four employees yet, although they
will  likely be relocated elsewhere."

Methinks some folks believe that the French could be upset over Higgy
canceling the francophonie games and are running off to join a
different circus. However I suspect that it was my calls and emails
reminding them of all the documents I sent their Ambassador to the UN
in 2005 byway of US Registered Mail after our Ambassadors Allan Rock,
Frank McKenna, the RCMP and their Yankee buddies in the FBI received
the same stuff N'esy Pas?

Putin appoints Russia’s new UN ambassador
By Associated Press July 27

MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir Putin has appointed veteran
diplomat Vasily Nebeznya as the country’s new ambassador to the United
Nations.

Nebeznya’s appointment, to replace Vitaly Churkin, who died in
February, had been expected for months. The decree formally naming him
as ambassador was published on the Kremlin website on Thursday.

Nebeznya had been a deputy foreign minister since 2013. He previously
was an adviser to Russia’s UN delegation and deputy Russian
representative at the UN office in Geneva.

State news agency RIA-Novosti quoted him as saying that in his new
post, “I have hopes that the fog will dissipate and settle, and then
many of the things for which they are trying to nail Russia to the
pillar of shame will appear completely otherwise.”

It's the environment, stupid

Butts's influence is felt in every area of government policy and
Trudeau would not make any big policy decisions without the input of
both Butts and Telford. But the area Butts holds dearest is the
environment. Environment policies were a central theme in McGuinty's
government during the Butts era, and again with the Trudeau Liberals.
In between the two governments, Butts was the CEO of the World
Wildlife Fund in Canada, a position he held until the Trudeau Liberal
leadership campaign came calling.

In his resignation statement Butts even made a pitch for action to
halt climate change: "Our kids and grandkids will judge us on one
issue above all others," he said. "That issue is climate change. I
hope the response to it becomes the collective, non-partisan, urgent
effort that science clearly says is required. I hope that happens
soon."

I have the advantage, sir, of having read many of your emails over the years.


As such, I do not think a phone conversation between us, and
specifically one which you might mistakenly assume was in response to
your threat of legal action against me, is likely to prove a
productive use of either of our time.


If there is some specific matter about which you wish to communicate
with me, feel free to email me with the full details and it will be
given due consideration.

>> REASONS FOR JUDGMENT BY THE COURT
>>
>> I.                    Introduction
>>
>> [1]               On September 16, 2015, David Raymond Amos (Mr. Amos)
>> filed a 53-page Statement of Claim (the Claim) in Federal Court
>> against Her Majesty the Queen (the Crown). Mr. Amos claims $11 million
>> in damages and a public apology from the Prime Minister and Provincial
>> Premiers for being illegally barred from accessing parliamentary
>> properties and seeks a declaration from the Minister of Public Safety
>> that the Canadian Government will no longer allow the Royal Canadian
>> Mounted Police (RCMP) and Canadian Forces to harass him and his clan
>> (Claim at para. 96).
>>
>> [2]               On November 12, 2015 (Docket T-1557-15), by way of a
>> motion brought by the Crown, a prothonotary of the Federal Court (the
>> Prothonotary) struck the Claim in its entirety, without leave to
>> amend, on the basis that it was plain and obvious that the Claim
>> disclosed no reasonable claim, the Claim was fundamentally vexatious,
>> and the Claim could not be salvaged by way of further amendment (the
>> Prothontary’s Order).
>>
>>
>> [3]               On January 25, 2016 (2016 FC 93), by way of Mr.
>> Amos’ appeal from the Prothonotary’s Order, a judge of the Federal
>> Court (the Judge), reviewing the matter de novo, struck all of Mr.
>> Amos’ claims for relief with the exception of the claim for damages
>> for being barred by the RCMP from the New Brunswick legislature in
>> 2004 (the Federal Court Judgment).
>>
>>
>> [4]               Mr. Amos appealed and the Crown cross-appealed the
>> Federal Court Judgment. Further to the issuance of a Notice of Status
>> Review, Mr. Amos’ appeal was dismissed for delay on December 19, 2016.
>> As such, the only matter before this Court is the Crown’s
>> cross-appeal.
>>
>>
>> II.                 Preliminary Matter
>>
>> [5]               Mr. Amos, in his memorandum of fact and law in
>> relation to the cross-appeal that was filed with this Court on March
>> 6, 2017, indicated that several judges of this Court, including two of
>> the judges of this panel, had a conflict of interest in this appeal.
>> This was the first time that he identified the judges whom he believed
>> had a conflict of interest in a document that was filed with this
>> Court. In his notice of appeal he had alluded to a conflict with
>> several judges but did not name those judges.
>>
>> [6]               Mr. Amos was of the view that he did not have to
>> identify the judges in any document filed with this Court because he
>> had identified the judges in various documents that had been filed
>> with the Federal Court. In his view the Federal Court and the Federal
>> Court of Appeal are the same court and therefore any document filed in
>> the Federal Court would be filed in this Court. This view is based on
>> subsections 5(4) and 5.1(4) of the Federal Courts Act, R.S.C., 1985,
>> c. F-7:
>>
>>
>> 5(4) Every judge of the Federal Court is, by virtue of his or her
>> office, a judge of the Federal Court of Appeal and has all the
>> jurisdiction, power and authority of a judge of the Federal Court of
>> Appeal.
>> […]
>>
>> 5(4) Les juges de la Cour fédérale sont d’office juges de la Cour
>> d’appel fédérale et ont la même compétence et les mêmes pouvoirs que
>> les juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale.
>> […]
>> 5.1(4) Every judge of the Federal Court of Appeal is, by virtue of
>> that office, a judge of the Federal Court and has all the
>> jurisdiction, power and authority of a judge of the Federal Court.
>>
>> 5.1(4) Les juges de la Cour d’appel fédérale sont d’office juges de la
>> Cour fédérale et ont la même compétence et les mêmes pouvoirs que les
>> juges de la Cour fédérale.
>>
>>
>> [7]               However, these subsections only provide that the
>> judges of the Federal Court are also judges of this Court (and vice
>> versa). It does not mean that there is only one court. If the Federal
>> Court and this Court were one Court, there would be no need for this
>> section.
>> [8]               Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Courts Act provide
>> that:
>> 3 The division of the Federal Court of Canada called the Federal Court
>> — Appeal Division is continued under the name “Federal Court of
>> Appeal” in English and “Cour d’appel fédérale” in French. It is
>> continued as an additional court of law, equity and admiralty in and
>> for Canada, for the better administration of the laws of Canada and as
>> a superior court of record having civil and criminal jurisdiction.
>>
>> 3 La Section d’appel, aussi appelée la Cour d’appel ou la Cour d’appel
>> fédérale, est maintenue et dénommée « Cour d’appel fédérale » en
>> français et « Federal Court of Appeal » en anglais. Elle est maintenue
>> à titre de tribunal additionnel de droit, d’equity et d’amirauté du
>> Canada, propre à améliorer l’application du droit canadien, et
>> continue d’être une cour supérieure d’archives ayant compétence en
>> matière civile et pénale.
>> 4 The division of the Federal Court of Canada called the Federal Court
>> — Trial Division is continued under the name “Federal Court” in
>> English and “Cour fédérale” in French. It is continued as an
>> additional court of law, equity and admiralty in and for Canada, for
>> the better administration of the laws of Canada and as a superior
>> court of record having civil and criminal jurisdiction.
>>
>> 4 La section de la Cour fédérale du Canada, appelée la Section de
>> première instance de la Cour fédérale, est maintenue et dénommée «
>> Cour fédérale » en français et « Federal Court » en anglais. Elle est
>> maintenue à titre de tribunal additionnel de droit, d’equity et
>> d’amirauté du Canada, propre à améliorer l’application du droit
>> canadien, et continue d’être une cour supérieure d’archives ayant
>> compétence en matière civile et pénale.
>>
>>
>> [9]               Sections 3 and 4 of the Federal Courts Act create
>> two separate courts – this Court (section 3) and the Federal Court
>> (section 4). If, as Mr. Amos suggests, documents filed in the Federal
>> Court were automatically also filed in this Court, then there would no
>> need for the parties to prepare and file appeal books as required by
>> Rules 343 to 345 of the Federal Courts Rules, SOR/98-106 in relation
>> to any appeal from a decision of the Federal Court. The requirement to
>> file an appeal book with this Court in relation to an appeal from a
>> decision of the Federal Court makes it clear that the only documents
>> that will be before this Court are the documents that are part of that
>> appeal book.
>>
>>
>> [10]           Therefore, the memorandum of fact and law filed on
>> March 6, 2017 is the first document, filed with this Court, in which
>> Mr. Amos identified the particular judges that he submits have a
>> conflict in any matter related to him.
>>
>>
>> [11]           On April 3, 2017, Mr. Amos attempted to bring a motion
>> before the Federal Court seeking an order “affirming or denying the
>> conflict of interest he has” with a number of judges of the Federal
>> Court. A judge of the Federal Court issued a direction noting that if
>> Mr. Amos was seeking this order in relation to judges of the Federal
>> Court of Appeal, it was beyond the jurisdiction of the Federal Court.
>> Mr. Amos raised the Federal Court motion at the hearing of this
>> cross-appeal. The Federal Court motion is not a motion before this
>> Court and, as such, the submissions filed before the Federal Court
>> will not be entertained. As well, since this was a motion brought
>> before the Federal Court (and not this Court), any documents filed in
>> relation to that motion are not part of the record of this Court.
>>
>>
>> [12]           During the hearing of the appeal Mr. Amos alleged that
>> the third member of this panel also had a conflict of interest and
>> submitted some documents that, in his view, supported his claim of a
>> conflict. Mr. Amos, following the hearing of his appeal, was also
>> afforded the opportunity to provide a brief summary of the conflict
>> that he was alleging and to file additional documents that, in his
>> view, supported his allegations. Mr. Amos submitted several pages of
>> documents in relation to the alleged conflicts. He organized the
>> documents by submitting a copy of the biography of the particular
>> judge and then, immediately following that biography, by including
>> copies of the documents that, in his view, supported his claim that
>> such judge had a conflict.
>>
>>
>> [13]           The nature of the alleged conflict of Justice Webb is
>> that before he was appointed as a Judge of the Tax Court of Canada in
>> 2006, he was a partner with the law firm Patterson Law, and before
>> that with Patterson Palmer in Nova Scotia. Mr. Amos submitted that he
>> had a number of disputes with Patterson Palmer and Patterson Law and
>> therefore Justice Webb has a conflict simply because he was a partner
>> of these firms. Mr. Amos is not alleging that Justice Webb was
>> personally involved in or had any knowledge of any matter in which Mr.
>> Amos was involved with Justice Webb’s former law firm – only that he
>> was a member of such firm.
>>
>>
>> [14]           During his oral submissions at the hearing of his
>> appeal Mr. Amos, in relation to the alleged conflict for Justice Webb,
>> focused on dealings between himself and a particular lawyer at
>> Patterson Law. However, none of the documents submitted by Mr. Amos at
>> the hearing or subsequently related to any dealings with this
>> particular lawyer nor is it clear when Mr. Amos was dealing with this
>> lawyer. In particular, it is far from clear whether such dealings were
>> after the time that Justice Webb was appointed as a Judge of the Tax
>> Court of Canada over 10 years ago.
>>

>> [15]           The documents that he submitted in relation to the
>> alleged conflict for Justice Webb largely relate to dealings between
>> Byron Prior and the St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador office of
>> Patterson Palmer, which is not in the same province where Justice Webb
>> practiced law. The only document that indicates any dealing between

>> who was a partner in the St. John’s NL office of Patterson Palmer. The
>> affidavit is dated January 24, 2005 and refers to a number of e-mails

>> letter that is addressed to four individuals, one of whom is John

>> Palmer. The letter is dated September 2, 2004 and is addressed to
>> “John Crosbie, c/o Greg G. Byrne, Suite 502, 570 Queen Street,
>> Fredericton, NB E3B 5E3”. In this letter Mr. Amos alludes to a
>> possible lawsuit against Patterson Palmer.
>> [16]           Mr. Amos’ position is that simply because Justice Webb
>> was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer, he now has a conflict. In Wewaykum
>> Indian Band v. Her Majesty the Queen, 2003 SCC 45, [2003] 2 S.C.R.
>> 259, the Supreme Court of Canada noted that disqualification of a
>> judge is to be determined based on whether there is a reasonable
>> apprehension of bias:
>> 60        In Canadian law, one standard has now emerged as the
>> criterion for disqualification. The criterion, as expressed by de
>> Grandpré J. in Committee for Justice and Liberty v. National Energy
>> Board, …[[1978] 1 S.C.R. 369, 68 D.L.R. (3d) 716], at p. 394, is the
>> reasonable apprehension of bias:
>> … the apprehension of bias must be a reasonable one, held by
>> reasonable and right minded persons, applying themselves to the
>> question and obtaining thereon the required information. In the words
>> of the Court of Appeal, that test is "what would an informed person,
>> viewing the matter realistically and practically -- and having thought
>> the matter through -- conclude. Would he think that it is more likely
>> than not that [the decision-maker], whether consciously or
>> unconsciously, would not decide fairly."
>>
>> [17]           The issue to be determined is whether an informed
>> person, viewing the matter realistically and practically, and having
>> thought the matter through, would conclude that Mr. Amos’ allegations
>> give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias. As this Court has
>> previously remarked, “there is a strong presumption that judges will
>> administer justice impartially” and this presumption will not be
>> rebutted in the absence of “convincing evidence” of bias (Collins v.
>> Canada, 2011 FCA 140 at para. 7, [2011] 4 C.T.C. 157 [Collins]. See
>> also R. v. S. (R.D.), [1997] 3 S.C.R. 484 at para. 32, 151 D.L.R.
>> (4th) 193).
>>
>> [18]           The Ontario Court of Appeal in Rando Drugs Ltd. v.
>> Scott, 2007 ONCA 553, 86 O.R. (3d) 653 (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
>> involved in the litigation that was now before that judge. The Ontario
>> Court of Appeal determined that the judge was not disqualified if the
>> judge had no involvement with the person or the matter when he was a
>> lawyer. The Ontario Court of Appeal also explained that the rules for
>> determining whether a judge is disqualified are different from the
>> rules to determine whether a lawyer has a conflict:
>> 27        Thus, disqualification is not the natural corollary to a
>> finding that a trial judge has had some involvement in a case over
>> which he or she is now presiding. Where the judge had no involvement,
>> as here, it cannot be said that the judge is disqualified.
>>
>>
>> 28        The point can rightly be made that had Mr. Patterson been
>> asked to represent the appellant as counsel before his appointment to
>> the bench, the conflict rules would likely have prevented him from
>> taking the case because his firm had formerly represented one of the
>> defendants in the case. Thus, it is argued how is it that as a trial
>> judge Patterson J. can hear the case? This issue was considered by the
>> Court of Appeal (Civil Division) in Locabail (U.K.) Ltd. v. Bayfield
>> Properties Ltd., [2000] Q.B. 451. The court held, at para. 58, that
>> there is no inflexible rule governing the disqualification of a judge
>> and that, "[e]verything depends on the circumstances."
>>
>>
>> 29        It seems to me that what appears at first sight to be an
>> inconsistency in application of rules can be explained by the
>> different contexts and in particular, the strong presumption of
>> judicial impartiality that applies in the context of disqualification
>> of a judge. There is no such presumption in cases of allegations of
>> conflict of interest against a lawyer because of a firm's previous
>> involvement in the case. To the contrary, as explained by Sopinka J.
>> in MacDonald Estate v. Martin (1990), 77 D.L.R. (4th) 249 (S.C.C.),
>> for sound policy reasons there is a presumption of a disqualifying
>> interest that can rarely be overcome. In particular, a conclusory
>> statement from the lawyer that he or she had no confidential
>> information about the case will never be sufficient. The case is the
>> opposite where the allegation of bias is made against a trial judge.
>> His or her statement that he or she knew nothing about the case and
>> had no involvement in it will ordinarily be accepted at face value
>> unless there is good reason to doubt it: see Locabail, at para. 19.
>>
>>
>> 30        That brings me then to consider the particular circumstances
>> of this case and whether there are serious grounds to find a
>> disqualifying conflict of interest in this case. In my view, there are
>> two significant factors that justify the trial judge's decision not to
>> recuse himself. The first is his statement, which all parties accept,
>> that he knew nothing of the case when it was in his former firm and
>> that he had nothing to do with it. The second is the long passage of
>> time. As was said in Wewaykum, at para. 85:
>>             To us, one significant factor stands out, and must inform
>> the perspective of the reasonable person assessing the impact of this
>> involvement on Binnie J.'s impartiality in the appeals. That factor is
>> the passage of time. Most arguments for disqualification rest on
>> circumstances that are either contemporaneous to the decision-making,
>> or that occurred within a short time prior to the decision-making.
>> 31        There are other factors that inform the issue. The Wilson
>> Walker firm no longer acted for any of the parties by the time of
>> trial. More importantly, at the time of the motion, Patterson J. had
>> been a judge for six years and thus had not had a relationship with
>> his former firm for a considerable period of time.
>>
>>
>> 32        In my view, a reasonable person, viewing the matter
>> realistically would conclude that the trial judge could deal fairly
>> and impartially with this case. I take this view principally because
>> of the long passage of time and the trial judge's lack of involvement
>> in or knowledge of the case when the Wilson Walker firm had carriage.
>> In these circumstances it cannot be reasonably contended that the
>> trial judge could not remain impartial in the case. The mere fact that
>> his name appears on the letterhead of some correspondence from over a
>> decade ago would not lead a reasonable person to believe that he would
>> either consciously or unconsciously favour his former firm's former
>> client. It is simply not realistic to think that a judge would throw
>> off his mantle of impartiality, ignore his oath of office and favour a
>> client - about whom he knew nothing - of a firm that he left six years
>> earlier and that no longer acts for the client, in a case involving
>> events from over a decade ago.
>> (emphasis added)
>>
>> [19]           Justice Webb had no involvement with any matter
>> involving Mr. Amos while he was a member of Patterson Palmer or
>> Patterson Law, nor does Mr. Amos suggest that he did. Mr. Amos made it
>> clear during the hearing of this matter that the only reason for the
>> alleged conflict for Justice Webb was that he was a member of
>> Patterson Law and Patterson Palmer. This is simply not enough for
>> Justice Webb to be disqualified. Any involvement of Mr. Amos with
>> Patterson Law while Justice Webb was a member of that firm would have
>> had to occur over 10 years ago and even longer for the time when he
>> was a member of Patterson Palmer. In addition to the lack of any
>> involvement on his part with any matter or dispute that Mr. Amos had
>> with Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer (which in and of itself is
>> sufficient to dispose of this matter), the length of time since
>> Justice Webb was a member of Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer would
>> also result in the same finding – that there is no conflict in Justice
>> Webb hearing this appeal.
>>
>> [20]           Similarly in R. v. Bagot, 2000 MBCA 30, 145 Man. R.
>> (2d) 260, the Manitoba Court of Appeal found that there was no
>> reasonable apprehension of bias when a judge, who had been a member of
>> the law firm that had been retained by the accused, had no involvement
>> with the accused while he was a lawyer with that firm.
>>
>> [21]           In Del Zotto v. Minister of National Revenue, [2000] 4
>> F.C. 321, 257 N.R. 96, this court did find that there would be a
>> reasonable apprehension of bias where a judge, who while he was a
>> lawyer, had recorded time on a matter involving the same person who
>> was before that judge. However, this case can be distinguished as
>> Justice Webb did not have any time recorded on any files involving Mr.
>> Amos while he was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law.
>>
>> [22]           Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He
>> stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true copy
>> of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this CD.
>> He has also indicated that he has “provided a true copy of the CD
>> entitled 139 to many American and Canadian law enforcement authorities
>> and not one of the police forces or officers of the court are willing
>> to investigate it”. Since he has indicated that this is an “American
>> police surveillance wiretap”, this is a matter for the American law
>> enforcement authorities and cannot create, as Mr. Amos suggests, a
>> conflict of interest for any judge to whom he provides a copy.
>>
>> [23]           As a result, there is no conflict or reasonable
>> apprehension of bias for Justice Webb and therefore, no reason for him
>> to recuse himself.
>>
>> [24]           Mr. Amos alleged that Justice Near’s past professional
>> experience with the government created a “quasi-conflict” in deciding
>> the cross-appeal. Mr. Amos provided no details and Justice Near
>> confirmed that he had no prior knowledge of the matters alleged in the
>> Claim. Justice Near sees no reason to recuse himself.
>>
>> [25]           Insofar as it is possible to glean the basis for Mr.
>> Amos’ allegations against Justice Gleason, it appears that he alleges
>> that she is incapable of hearing this appeal because he says he wrote
>> a letter to Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien in 2004. At that time,
>> both Justice Gleason and Mr. Mulroney were partners in the law firm
>> Ogilvy Renault, LLP. The letter in question, which is rude and angry,
>> begins with “Hey you two Evil Old Smiling Bastards” and “Re: me suing
>> you and your little dogs too”. There is no indication that the letter
>> was ever responded to or that a law suit was ever commenced by Mr.
>> Amos against Mr. Mulroney. In the circumstances, there is no reason
>> for Justice Gleason to recuse herself as the letter in question does
>> not give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias.
>>
>>
>> III.               Issue
>>
>> [26]           The issue on the cross-appeal is as follows: Did the
>> Judge err in setting aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the Claim
>> in its entirety without leave to amend and in determining that Mr.
>> Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick
>> legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action?
>>
>> IV.              Analysis
>>
>> A.                 Standard of Review
>>
>> [27]           Following the Judge’s decision to set aside the
>> Prothonotary’s Order, this Court revisited the standard of review to
>> be applied to discretionary decisions of prothonotaries and decisions
>> made by judges on appeals of prothonotaries’ decisions in Hospira
>> Healthcare Corp. v. Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, 2016 FCA 215,
>> 402 D.L.R. (4th) 497 [Hospira]. In Hospira, a five-member panel of
>> this Court replaced the Aqua-Gem standard of review with that
>> articulated in Housen v. Nikolaisen, 2002 SCC 33, [2002] 2 S.C.R. 235
>> [Housen]. As a result, it is no longer appropriate for the Federal
>> Court to conduct a de novo review of a discretionary order made by a
>> prothonotary in regard to questions vital to the final issue of the
>> case. Rather, a Federal Court judge can only intervene on appeal if
>> the prothonotary made an error of law or a palpable and overriding
>> error in determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and
>> law (Hospira at para. 79). Further, this Court can only interfere with
>> a Federal Court judge’s review of a prothonotary’s discretionary order
>> if the judge made an error of law or palpable and overriding error in
>> determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and law
>> (Hospira at paras. 82-83).
>>
>> [28]           In the case at bar, the Judge substituted his own
>> assessment of Mr. Amos’ Claim for that of the Prothonotary. This Court
>> must look to the Prothonotary’s Order to determine whether the Judge
>> erred in law or made a palpable and overriding error in choosing to
>> interfere.
>>
>>
>> B.                 Did the Judge err in interfering with the
>> Prothonotary’s Order?
>>
>> [29]           The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following
>> paragraphs from the Crown’s submissions as the basis for striking the
>> Claim in its entirety without leave to amend:
>>
>> 17.       Within the 96 paragraph Statement of Claim, the Plaintiff
>> addresses his complaint in paragraphs 14-24, inclusive. All but four
>> of those paragraphs are dedicated to an incident that occurred in 2006
>> in and around the legislature in New Brunswick. The jurisdiction of
>> the Federal Court does not extend to Her Majesty the Queen in right of
>> the Provinces. In any event, the Plaintiff hasn’t named the Province
>> or provincial actors as parties to this action. The incident alleged
>> does not give rise to a justiciable cause of action in this Court.
>> (…)
>>
>>
>> 21.       The few paragraphs that directly address the Defendant
>> provide no details as to the individuals involved or the location of
>> the alleged incidents or other details sufficient to allow the
>> Defendant to respond. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to
>> determine the causes of action the Plaintiff is attempting to advance.
>> A generous reading of the Statement of Claim allows the Defendant to
>> only speculate as to the true and/or intended cause of action. At
>> best, the Plaintiff’s action may possibly be summarized as: he
>> suspects he is barred from the House of Commons.
>> [footnotes omitted].
>>
>>
>> [30]           The Judge determined that he could not strike the Claim
>> on the same jurisdictional basis as the Prothonotary. The Judge noted
>> that the Federal Court has jurisdiction over claims based on the
>> liability of Federal Crown servants like the RCMP and that the actors
>> who barred Mr. Amos from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004
>> included the RCMP (Federal Court Judgment at para. 23). In considering
>> the viability of these allegations de novo, the Judge identified
>> paragraph 14 of the Claim as containing “some precision” as it
>> identifies the date of the event and a RCMP officer acting as
>> Aide-de-Camp to the Lieutenant Governor (Federal Court Judgment at
>> para. 27).
>>
>>
>> [31]           The Judge noted that the 2004 event could support a
>> cause of action in the tort of misfeasance in public office and
>> identified the elements of the tort as excerpted from Meigs v. Canada,
>> 2013 FC 389, 431 F.T.R. 111:
>>
>>
>> [13]      As in both the cases of Odhavji Estate v Woodhouse, 2003 SCC
>> 69 [Odhavji] and Lewis v Canada, 2012 FC 1514 [Lewis], I must
>> determine whether the plaintiffs’ statement of claim pleads each
>> element of the alleged tort of misfeasance in public office:
>>
>> a) The public officer must have engaged in deliberate and unlawful
>> conduct in his or her capacity as public officer;
>>
>> b) The public officer must have been aware both that his or her
>> conduct was unlawful and that it was likely to harm the plaintiff; and
>>
>> c) There must be an element of bad faith or dishonesty by the public
>> officer and knowledge of harm alone is insufficient to conclude that a
>> public officer acted in bad faith or dishonestly.
>> Odhavji, above, at paras 23, 24 and 28
>> (Federal Court Judgment at para. 28).
>>
>> [32]           The Judge determined that Mr. Amos disclosed sufficient
>> material facts to meet the elements of the tort of misfeasance in
>> public office because the actors, who barred him from the New
>> Brunswick legislature in 2004, including the RCMP, did so for
>> “political reasons” (Federal Court Judgment at para. 29).
>>
>> [33]           This Court’s discussion of the sufficiency of pleadings
>> in Merchant Law Group v. Canada (Revenue Agency), 2010 FCA 184, 321
>> D.L.R (4th) 301 is particularly apt:
>>
>> …When pleading bad faith or abuse of power, it is not enough to
>> assert, baldly, conclusory phrases such as “deliberately or
>> negligently,” “callous disregard,” or “by fraud and theft did steal”.
>> “The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called
>> upon to pronounce is not an allegation of material fact”. Making bald,
>> conclusory allegations without any evidentiary foundation is an abuse
>> of process…
>>
>> To this, I would add that the tort of misfeasance in public office
>> requires a particular state of mind of a public officer in carrying
>> out the impunged action, i.e., deliberate conduct which the public
>> officer knows to be inconsistent with the obligations of his or her
>> office. For this tort, particularization of the allegations is
>> mandatory. Rule 181 specifically requires particularization of
>> allegations of “breach of trust,” “wilful default,” “state of mind of
>> a person,” “malice” or “fraudulent intention.”
>> (at paras. 34-35, citations omitted).
>>
>> [34]           Applying the Housen standard of review to the
>> Prothonotary’s Order, we are of the view that the Judge interfered
>> absent a legal or palpable and overriding error.
>>
>> [35]           The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim
>> disclosed no reasonable claim and was fundamentally vexatious on the
>> basis of jurisdictional concerns and the absence of material facts to
>> ground a cause of action. Paragraph 14 of the Claim, which addresses
>> the 2004 event, pleads no material facts as to how the RCMP officer
>> engaged in deliberate and unlawful conduct, knew that his or her
>> conduct was unlawful and likely to harm Mr. Amos, and acted in bad
>> faith. While the Claim alleges elsewhere that Mr. Amos was barred from
>> the New Brunswick legislature for political and/or malicious reasons,
>> these allegations are not particularized and are directed against
>> non-federal actors, such as the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative
>> Assembly of New Brunswick and the Fredericton Police Force. As such,
>> the Judge erred in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the RCMP
>> barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable of
>> supporting a cause of action.
>>
>> [36]           In our view, the Claim is made up entirely of bare
>> allegations, devoid of any detail, such that it discloses no
>> reasonable cause of action within the jurisdiction of the Federal
>> Courts. Therefore, the Judge erred in interfering to set aside the
>> Prothonotary’s Order striking the claim in its entirety. Further, we
>> find that the Prothonotary made no error in denying leave to amend.
>> The deficiencies in Mr. Amos’ pleadings are so extensive such that
>> amendment could not cure them (see Collins at para. 26).
>>
>> V.                 Conclusion
>> [37]           For the foregoing reasons, we would allow the Crown’s
>> cross-appeal, with costs, setting aside the Federal Court Judgment,
>> dated January 25, 2016 and restoring the Prothonotary’s Order, dated
>> November 12, 2015, which struck Mr. Amos’ Claim in its entirety
>> without leave to amend.
