Province withdraws request for emergency order to end N.S. Crown attorneys' strike
The province passed a law Friday to declare the prosecutors an essential service, but it was not proclaimed

Lawyers for the Nova Scotia government have withdrawn a request to have a court injunction heard on an emergency basis as the province seeks to end what it calls an "illegal" strike by Crown attorneys.
Both sides were in Nova Scotia Supreme Court court Friday for a scheduled hearing into the matter.
The province passed a law Friday declaring the prosecutors an essential service and officially ending their the right to arbitration. However, shortly after, the government would not proclaim the law.
Justice Heather Robertson said in court that passage of the law, Bill 203, would make the issue of an emergency injunction moot.
The Nova Scotia Crown Attorneys' Association is fighting the constitutionality of the law.
It was prepared to oppose the injunction Friday, saying the province rendered its existing collective agreement null and void by refusing to honour a clause allowing binding arbitration.
Gail Gatchalian, the lawyer representing the Nova Scotia Crown Attorneys' Association, said Friday's injunction application was 'a waste of time.' (CBC)
Gail Gatchalian, the lawyer representing the Crown attorneys' association, said the injunction application was unnecessary and the association would be seeking court costs in the matter.
"Today was a waste of time and, in fact, that was conceded by lawyers for the government this morning. There was no emergency, they knew the bill was going to be passed and proclaimed into law today."
Later Friday, the Liberals brought Bill 203 before the Nova Scotia House of Assembly. It revokes the Crown attorneys' right to binding arbitration, a right they agreed to extend in their last agreement in exchange for a smaller wage increase, and requires Crowns to be deemed an essential service.
"They don't respect public sector unions in this province," said Crown attorney Rick Woodburn following the court hearing Friday. "And we've seen that time and time again.
"They will take away and smash and trample on our rights. And the question is whose rights are going to be trampled next."
He denied the government's assertion that the Crowns have derailed contract negotiations by refusing to budge from their demand for a 17 per cent wage increase.
Crown attorney Rick Woodburn and Perry Borden, president of the Nova Scotia Crown attorneys' association, are shown at the Nova Scotia legislature. On Friday, the government was voting on a bill that would prevent Crown attorneys from striking or to have binding arbitration. (Patrick Callaghan/CBC)
"The premier has stated again and again that we would not move off 17 per cent. I would say that in conciliation, we came down significantly from that number in bargaining. That is not what you're hearing from the government.
"We recognize that the taxpayers aren't necessarily going to foot the bill for Crown attorneys at 17 per cent. So in bargaining, we brought our numbers down."
He said the government was stuck on the seven per cent increase.
"And in fact, they said seven per cent, you can't have anything else above that. And we finally said no at the end of conciliation ... we're merely exercising our constitutional rights to go to arbitration. We know a week later they filed this bill. They knew all along during our entire process that they were going to file an unconstitutional bill."
Crown attorney Rick Woodburn speaks to media after the Nova Scotia government withdrew its request for an emergency injunction on Friday morning. (Melanie Leger/CBC)
The Crown attorneys have said they will return to work once the bill is passed, but will continue to challenge the bill in court.
It won't be easy, warned Wayne MacKay, a Halifax law professor and Canadian constitutional law expert.
"The strongest case the Crowns have for their constitutional challenge is whether it infringes on … the [Charter of Rights and Freedoms] — the right to collective bargaining and free association," he told CBC Information Morning Halifax on Friday.
"It has to be effective collective bargaining, which means you have to be able to have some kind of a weapon to use. The legislation will take away the promised binding arbitration, which was an effective mechanism and guaranteed for 30 years."
While the association may have a good constitutional argument, bringing it before multiple levels of the Canadian court system, all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, will be a lengthy process.
"You have to go to the courts, and if you go to the courts, then you're going to start with Supreme Court trial division, then a court of appeal, then Supreme Court of Canada," MacKay said.
The cost can skyrocket, he said.
Halifax law professor Wayne MacKay said a constitutional argument against Bill 203 will like be lengthy and costly. (CBC)
"Usually hundreds of thousands of dollars later, taxpayer money and union money, and a very long time. Usually we're looking at in most cases, years."
However, Gatchalian said the legal wrangling doesn't have to drag on. The government has an option to apply to have the case heard before Nova Scotia's Court of Appeal.

Hi, David it was a pleasure speaking with you, on Sunday, unfortunately a
family crises developed while I was speaking with you, I do hope to be able
to resume conversation with, but I have to admit there a bit of a learning
curve that is involved in getting to fully understand the whole, It's like
you providing me with many pieces of a puzzle and I have to put it
together, but I am up to the challenge.
The intention of the Facebook is to foster critical thinking, so I don't
interfere much unless, the posts are direct attack on the posters. When I
first started the page it was easy to police the nature and the context of
the post, but currently the flow is very high and there is really no way
for me to check everything out. For most cases I will only view videos if
the are less then three minutes, longer ones I tend to listen for about a
min, but I do spot listens.
There is not enough time in the day .. to be thorough.
There is another site that I am working on, the Left eye, which I hope to
have up and running by the end of the December. If I publish any of your
research to you wish to be credited, or remain anonymous? That was the
site that I was working on before I became involved the the Occupy
movement..
Thanks Andre Faust .. :)

"Montreal criminal lawyer Giuseppe Battista concurs. He says that the
Quebec Court of Appeal appears to have "established the norm that in
principle" when abuse of trust and the public purse is involved in
matters of large-scale fraud a jail term is "required."
"But it is important to note that the court maintained the quantum of
the sentence," noted Battista. "In other words, they didn't touch the
amount of the sentence but they said that it should be served in jail
and not in the community."

Subject: Re: Andre I want to believe you but I looked at your facebook
and shook my head
To: David Amos <david.raymond.amos@gmail.com>
Hi, David it was a pleasure speaking with you, on Sunday, unfortunately a
family crises developed while I was speaking with you, I do hope to be able
to resume conversation with, but I have to admit there a bit of a learning
curve that is involved in getting to fully understand the whole, It's like
you providing me with many pieces of a puzzle and I have to put it
together, but I am up to the challenge.
The intention of the Facebook is to foster critical thinking, so I don't
interfere much unless, the posts are direct attack on the posters. When I
first started the page it was easy to police the nature and the context of
the post, but currently the flow is very high and there is really no way
for me to check everything out. For most cases I will only view videos if
the are less then three minutes, longer ones I tend to listen for about a
min, but I do spot listens.
There is not enough time in the day .. to be thorough.
There is another site that I am working on, the Left eye, which I hope to
have up and running by the end of the December. If I publish any of your
research to you wish to be credited, or remain anonymous? That was the
site that I was working on before I became involved the the Occupy
movement..
Thanks Andre Faust .. :)

The lawyers within OLIPHANT COMMISSION should study every link and
every document I send them rather closely begining with the files with
the following links. Myriam Corbeil and Giuseppe Battista should
recall my doing with the Gomery Commission and Oliphant should rember
me me from my doings with the
"Montreal criminal lawyer Giuseppe Battista concurs. He says that the
Quebec Court of Appeal appears to have "established the norm that in
principle" when abuse of trust and the public purse is involved in
matters of large-scale fraud a jail term is "required."
"But it is important to note that the court maintained the quantum of
the sentence," noted Battista. "In other words, they didn't touch the
amount of the sentence but they said that it should be served in jail
and not in the community."

Former lawyer Lyle Howe wins partial victory in battle with barristers' society
Disbarred Halifax lawyer won't have to pay $150K penalty upfront should he reapply to practise
· CBC News · Posted: Oct 25, 2019 10:05 AM AT
Lyle Howe, who was disbarred in 2017, won't have to pay $150,000 in costs related to his disciplinary hearing by the Nova Scotia Barristers' Society, the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal ruled Thursday. (Andrew Vaughan/The Canadian Press)
Disbarred Halifax lawyer Lyle Howe has won a partial victory in his battle with the Nova Scotia Barristers' Society over its decision to kick him out of the legal profession.
However, Howe said he is disappointed he didn't get the main thing he sought, which was some sort of acknowledgement that the process the society used against him was tainted by racism.
The society's disciplinary panel found Howe guilty of professional misconduct and professional incompetence. He was disbarred on Oct. 20, 2017.
The society said Howe could not reapply to practise law for five years and also stipulated that he pay $150,000 in costs before reapplying.
Howe appealed that decision to the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal.

In a decision released Thursday, the court found — with the consent of the society — that the requirement to pay the monetary penalty before he reapplies to practise law should be struck down.
But Howe would still be required to pay the $150,000 penalty over time if he did practise law again.
However, the court disagreed with Howe's contention that his Charter rights had been violated by a process that was inherently racist.
In its decision, the court noted that the scope of its review of the society's decision is limited by law.
"Mr. Howe is arguing that the Panel misinterpreted, misapplied or overlooked evidence in making its factual findings," Justice David Farrar wrote on behalf of the five-member appeal panel.
"We can only interfere if there was no evidence upon which the factual conclusions could have been made."
Howe weighs options
Howe said he is considering his options, which could include seeking leave to take his case to the Supreme Court of Canada.He has already lodged a complaint with the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission about his treatment at the hands of the society.
When asked whether he would reapply to practise law now that the $150,000 penalty was no longer a pre-condition, he answered, "Hell, no."
Clarifications
- In its decision, the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal ruled that the requirement for Lyle Howe to pay $150,000 before he can reapply to practise law should be struck down. But Howe would still be required to pay the $150,000 over time if he did reapply to practise law. This story and headline have been updated to clarify.Oct 25, 2019 5:22 PM AT
The RCMP's chat with Jody Wilson-Raybould stirs echoes of painful Liberal past
On the eve of the 2019 campaign, a flashback to the election of 2006
· CBC News · Posted: Aug 17, 2019 4:00 AM ET
The news that Jody Wilson-Raybould has spoken to the RCMP brings bad tidings for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the lead up to the federal election, even though it is unlikely an invesgitation was ever pursued. (Hadeel Ibrahim/CBC)
That the RCMP spoke with Jody
Wilson-Raybould is not evidence of a crime — Wilson-Raybould herself has
said that she does not believe a crime occurred during the SNC-Lavalin
affair. It is not even necessarily evidence of an active or official
investigation. In fact, there is reason to believe an investigation was
not pursued.
But the news on Friday that the former minister of justice and attorney general spoke with someone from the national police force in the spring punctuates another difficult moment for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government.
And it stirs echoes of the events, nearly 14 years ago, that doomed the last Liberal government.
The fact that Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion proceeded with, and completed, his investigation would seem to suggest that the RCMP has not been actively pursuing the matter. The Conflict of Interest Act dictates that the commissioner "shall immediately suspend an examination" if it is discovered that the subject of his investigation is also the subject of a police investigation.
In 2014, for instance, the ethics commissioner suspended an investigation into the Mike Duffy affair once it became clear that the RCMP was investigating the same people and events.
Dion
is also obligated to suspend his investigation and notify the relevant
authorities if he has reasonable grounds to believe that an offence has
been committed.
In regard to the SNC-Lavalin affair, it is unknown whether the RCMP spoke to anyone other than Wilson-Raybould. According to a spokesman for the prime minister, no one from the Prime Minister's Office has spoken with the RCMP.
It is possible, at least in theory, that Dion's report on Wednesday added some new piece of information that could tweak the RCMP's interest — a spokeswoman for the police force said this week that the RCMP is "examining this matter carefully."
But it's also possible that the RCMP, for the sake of doing their due diligence, spoke with Wilson-Raybould and soon thereafter decided that no further action was warranted.
But the unresolved hint of an official investigation can be a politically dangerous thing.
In the fall of 2005, suspicious stock market activity raised concerns that details of the federal government's decision to not tax income trusts had been leaked and exploited. An NDP MP, Judy Wasylycia-Leis, asked the RCMP to investigate.
Four weeks later, in the middle of a federal election campaign, the commissioner of the RCMP sent a letter to Wasylycia-Leis to tell her that the force had reviewed the matter and decided to commence a criminal investigation.
After the NDP publicized the letter, the RCMP issued a news release that specifically referred to Ralph Goodale, the finance minister at the time.
The Liberals, still struggling to shake off the sponsorship scandal, were suddenly faced with another suggestion of wrongdoing. Stephen Harper, leader of the Conservative Party, called on Goodale to resign. The Conservatives, who had been trailing the Liberals, took a lead in opinion polls that they would not relinquish, winning power in January 2006 and holding government for nearly a decade.
The post-script is probably worth keeping in mind.
The RCMP's investigation ultimately resulted in charges against a public servant in the finance department. But Goodale was cleared of wrongdoing. By then he and the Liberals were sitting on the opposition side of the House of Commons.
A review by the RCMP's complaints commissioner later found that the police force's policies for dealing with such situations were inadequate.
"I am recommending that the RCMP develop a specific policy concerning disclosure of information relating to highly sensitive investigations," the commissioner wrote. "This policy should include clear guidelines and be based upon a rebuttable presumption against disclosure."
The
RCMP could be in another difficult spot now, with an election campaign
just days away. So long as even the possibility of an official
investigation exists, Conservatives and New Democrats might publicly
hold it over the Liberals' collective heads. Ideally, if the RCMP has
decided (or does decide) to not pursue the matter, it might find a way
to say so before the writ is officially dropped next month.
For the Liberals, it is at least another reminder to avoid getting themselves into situations such as this. One thing leads to another and suddenly the letters R, C, M and P are in the headlines.
In a court of law, everyone is entitled to a presumption of innocence. But politics is not generally concerned with such niceties.

CSL ship had 83 kilos of cocaine on it
CTV reports that a Canadian Steam Lines ship -- a company owned by Paul Martin until he transferred it to his sons last year -- was found with enough cocaine to get Canadians to re-elect a Liberal government. The discovery was made in Sydney, Nova Scotia aboard the Sheila Anne, a ship named after Martin's wife. According to CTV, "The Sheila Anne had sailed to Sydney from Venezuela. At the time of the search, the ship was carrying a cargo of coal bound for Florida." I could be wrong about my geography but why would a ship bound for Florida from Venezuela stop on route in Canada? Perhaps the Martin family geography is as good as its history. And ethics.(Crossposted at Sobering Thoughts)

Cocaine found hidden on CSL vessel
Tu Thanh Ha
Published July 2, 2004 Updated April 21, 2018
To
all the awkwardness that his shipping empire has brought Prime Minister
Paul Martin, add the embarrassment of being a drug mule.
The
day after his re-election this week, Canadian customs agents discovered
a stash of cocaine hidden at the bottom of a Canada Steamship Lines
coal carrier, one named after Mr. Martin's wife.
Drug
smugglers apparently used underwater divers to plant the drug without
the knowledge of the crew of the bulk cargo ship Sheila Ann during a
stop in Venezuela.
The 83 kilograms of cocaine was discovered in a routine inspection after the ship arrived in Sydney, N.S.
"This
is the first time that this type of incident has happened on one of our
ships," said Martine Malka, CSL's director of corporate communications.
"Naturally, the company has zero tolerance for drugs. We'll take steps to make sure this won't happen again."
She
said the packages must have been concealed while the Sheila Ann was at
its last port of call before Sydney: Maracaibo, Venezuela, where it
picked up a load of low-sulfur coal.
No charges are expected against the crew or the shipping company. The vessel was allowed to leave Sydney.
"This
is not uncommon for a legit company to be exploited by organized crime
when it comes to the movement of contraband," said Michel Proulx, a
spokesman for the Canada Border Services Agency.
An underwater camera spotted the cocaine. Divers were then sent in to retrieve it.
The
two drug packages were hidden in an underwater compartment sealed with a
grate. Normally the compartment is used to allow seawater to enter to
cool the vessel's engines.
Whoever planted the cocaine would have had to unscrew, then replace, four bolts holding the grate, Ms. Malka said.
The
bolts will now be welded on CSL ships, she said. The company will also
hire divers to inspect its ships when they use South American ports.
Since August of 2003, control of the company has been transferred to Mr. Martin's three sons, Paul W., David and James.
It wasn't immediately clear how pure the cocaine was or how much it was worth.
Evidence
in recent trafficking trials show that in cities such as Montreal, a
kilo of cocaine sells at the wholesale level for as much as $50,000.
The
shipment found on the Sheila Ann could therefore be worth several
million dollars, especially since it would be adulterated before it was
sold at street level.
Mr. Martin's director of communications, Mario Laguë, said the Prime Minister's Office had no comment to make on the incident.

Landslide Annie forced to wait -- and hope
Jill Mahoney
EDMONTON
June 29, 2004
Anne McLellan's nephew, goddaughter and
countless other Canadians went to bed after the 2000 election thinking
the cabinet minister had been defeated by her Alliance challenger. They,
along with several journalists, were mistaken.
But
last night, as vote results whipsawed between the Deputy Prime Minister
and Conservative Laurie Hawn, Ms. McLellan's record of tightly fought
electoral battles was again top of mind.
"Close races seem to be my destiny," she said with a smile.
Indeed,
in her first election in 1993, Ms. McLellan won by just one ballot,
earning the nickname Landslide Annie; it was a margin that increased to
11 after a recount. In 1997, she had a 1,411-vote lead, and in 2000 it
slipped to 733 votes.
Last night, as two children posted polls
that largely showed Ms. McLellan with a slim lead, supporters
congratulated her with hugs and handshakes. But Ms. McLellan cautioned
them not to take anything for granted.
"We're not there yet. It's not over," she told one man.
Her re-election campaign in Edmonton
Centre was supported by several prominent Conservatives and New
Democrats, including former Tory prime minister Joe Clark, who argued
she is too important an MP for Edmonton and Alberta to lose.
Ms.
McLellan said her record of razor-thin margins is in part a reflection
of the challenges the Liberals face in Alberta, where many still
remember Pierre Trudeau's national energy program with deep disdain.
"It's
never been easy for federal Liberals in this province," she said. " . .
. There's a history associated with that and I think that we are
overcoming that."
Ms. McLellan's
supporters, including several prominent city politicians, gathered at a
community hall just north of the city's downtown, where they huddled
around televisions and cheered as the Liberals surged ahead. Ms.
McLellan, who is the Liberals' chief Alberta representative, is joined
in caucus by David Kilgour, the party's only other MP in the province,
who also faced a tough battle but was declared elected.
The
scene was much the same at Mr. Hawn's campaign office, where spokesman
William McBeath said the crowd was confident later polls would put him
in the lead. Mr. Hawn, a former fighter pilot, was seen as a strong and
credible challenger to Ms. McLellan and carried the weight of the
party's long-held dream to defeat her.
The New Democratic Party was represented by Meghan McMaster, who was expected to finish well behind.

Massive Irregularities: Edmonton Centre
Via campaign manager Victor Marciano;Laurie Hawn, Conservative Candidate in Edmonton Centre, has filed a complaint with the Commissioner of Elections Canada after massive voter list irregularities were uncovered by his campaign. For some time, there have been rumors of election irregularities in Edmonton Centre. At an all candidates meeting with Elections Canada on January 4, 2006, it was revealed that two buildings had been struck from the electoral rolls because they were not residences. In reality, these buildings were both mailbox stores.
Several days later, the Laurie Hawn campaign identified a third non-residence building which sells mail boxes and reported it to Elections Canada.
A few days ago, the Laurie Hawn campaign was alerted, via e-mail, by an Edmonton lawyer that:
"Lots of [Anne McLellan] supporters are enumerated at their downtown office address instead of at their houses. One of them was bragging about how many times he could vote liberal (sic) based on the number of leases he had in her riding."
In reaction to this e-mail, the Laurie Hawn campaign acquired a City of Edmonton map which listed all buildings and their street addresses and began thoroughly checking the revised voters list. Despite checking less than half the polls, here are some irregularities that have been identified:
Almost 100 apparently nonexistent addresses in Edmonton's downtown core - in some cases, the addresses listed fictional residences in between two genuine buildings
Hundreds of people registered to vote out of their law offices, medical offices, accounting offices, and Government of Canada offices - in some cases these may be genuine errors, but in other cases, entire families are registered to vote out of high rise office space
Dozens of people registered to vote out of office towers, but who did not list a suite number, causing the address to read similarly to ordinary residences - in many cases, these people are also registered to vote in other ridings using their home addresses, and in other cases, voters living in other ridings are only registered in Edmonton Centre
Dozens of people registered to vote out of small mail box locations and from self-storage yards - there is no legitimate way for a person to appear on the list of Electors from a self-storage yard
Eighteen people registered to vote out of a truck stop
People registered to vote out of karaoke bars, lingerie stores, dance lounges, galleries, etc... The deadline for revising the list of Electors has now passed, and these irregular voters will remain on the list. In some cases, they have already voted in the advance polls and some of these irregular voters may have voted in previous elections, and may have had an impact on the results in the riding of Edmonton Centre.
Update - Edmonton Journal article "mix-up fixed, official says". Mixup?
The Laurie Hawn campaign has filed a complaint with the Commissioner of Elections, asking that he review the 2004 final voters roll and determine if any of these fraudulent voters cast ballots in that election. The campaign has also asked him to prosecute anyone who voted more than once - in Edmonton Centre and again in another riding.
Our campaign has also requested that voters be required to complete a voter declaration and undertake the elector's oath when voters registered at fraudulent addresses attempt to cast ballots in this election.
The Laurie Hawn campaign takes voter fraud very seriously. Any individual who intends to vote illegally in Edmonton Centre should be aware that our campaign will be carefully monitoring the election, and will pursue any violation with Elections Canada to the fullest extent possible.

Canadians
expect and deserve to have faith in their institutions and the people
who serve within them. The events of the last few weeks have raised
important questions about the relationship between the federal
government and the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada.
The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today announced that the Honourable Anne McLellan will serve as a Special Advisor to examine these questions and provide independent recommendations to the Prime Minister by June 30, 2019.
In particular, Ms. McLellan will assess the structure that has been in place since Confederation, of a single minister holding the positions of Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada. She will consider whether machinery of government or legislative changes may or may not be recommended.
She will also analyze the operating policies and practices across the Cabinet, and the role of public servants and political staff in their interactions with the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada.
Ms. McLellan is one of few Canadians who served their entire parliamentary career as a cabinet minister. Most notably, she served as the Deputy Prime Minister and as the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, among other roles. Most recently, Ms. McLellan served as Chair of the federal Task Force on Cannabis Legalization and Regulation.

Quotes
“Earlier this month, I said our government would seek external expert opinions on questions about the dual role of the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada. Former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada Anne McLellan will tackle these questions head-on. Canadians expect a government that is not only open and transparent, but continually challenging itself to raise the bar. Ms. McLellan’s work will be an important step toward that.”
“Recently questions have been raised about the joint roles of the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, and about the rules and norms which should govern the relationship between the Justice Minister and Attorney General, other Ministers, public servants, and political staff. I believe that it is timely and appropriate to examine these questions. I look forward to providing my advice to the Prime Minister.”

Anne McLellan
As a young farm girl growing up in rural Hants County, the Honourable A. Anne McLellan (1950-) dreamed of life in the “big city” of Halifax, where her aunt lived. Her dreams came true in 1968 when she was awarded a scholarship to Dalhousie, setting her on course for an immensely successful and distinguished career as an academic, politician and, most recently, the newest chancellor of her alma mater.
“My parents wanted me to go to Mount Allison, but I wanted to live in the city. I wanted to go to Dal,” says McLellan. “I don’t know where I’d be if it wasn’t for Dalhousie. This place has made everything in my life to date possible.”
McLellan adapted to life in the city quickly and never looked back. Graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in 1971, she was accepted into law school at Dal the following year. It was an exciting time to be a law student. New courses focusing on social justice expanded the course catalogue and extracurricular activities gave students plenty to do in their fleeting spare time. Between assignments and exams, McLellan worked once a week at the recently opened Dalhousie Legal Aid clinic on Gottingen Street.
“My Dal Law class was a group of very great people,” she says. “We were the class of ‘74, and we thought we were pretty special. But so did a lot of other people.”
After graduation, many of McLellan’s classmates went on to hold prominent positions around the world (including her fellow Dal Chancellor, Fred Fountain). She was no exception. Degree in hand, she went on to complete a Master’s of Law at the University of London before becoming a law professor, first at University of New Brunswick and then at the University of Alberta. Her move to Edmonton in 1980, the city she still calls home, forever changed her life.
Growing up in a “capital L Liberal house,” McLellan had always been interested in politics and had even worked for local officials. But she never really saw herself running for office — until she did, in 1993, when she won the hotly contested federal seat of Edmonton Northwest.
The victory set in motion a whirlwind 13-year political career for McLellan, first as a Member of Parliament and then in increasingly senior roles in the federal cabinet. Handling difficult and important portfolios such as Health, Justice, Natural Resources, and Public Safety, McLellan proved herself an impressive and influential parliamentarian. Her esteem earned her the role of deputy prime minister under Paul Martin in 2003.
Leaving politics in 2006, McLellan turned her focus closer to her home province, working as a lawyer and as a distinguished scholar at the University of Alberta. She stayed engaged in the public sphere, too, leading the Federal Government’s task force on marijuana legalization. But Dalhousie has remained close to her heart, which is why she agreed to chair Dalhousie’s Advisory Council in 2011 and, subsequently, serve as the university’s seventh chancellor.
“Dalhousie has been such an important part of my life,” she says, “and the opportunity to give back as chancellor is one I would have never expected, but it’s a great privilege.

N.S. Crown attorneys plan to walk off job to protest bill
Job action begins Wednesday as all but the most serious files are handed off to managers
· CBC News · Posted: Oct 22, 2019 5:28 PM AT

The president of the Nova Scotia association of Crown attorneys is predicting chaos when up to 80 per cent of his colleagues walk off the job Wednesday to oppose legislation revoking their right to binding arbitration.
"There's going to be a lot of gaps, there's going to be a lot of coverage issues and, like it or not, there will be some casualties of this walkout," Perry Borden said during a news conference at Province House on Tuesday.
Borden said 81 per cent of the 90 Crowns who voted on Monday supported job action in the face of Bill 203, which replaces the Crowns' right to binding arbitration with the right to strike, but also designates them an essential service. In their last contract, the government extended the arbitration right for 30 years in exchange for Crowns accepting a lower wage offer.
"Last week the government changed the game, last week they made the playing field unfair," Borden said, standing in the foyer at Province House.
"None of us want to be here."
The government surprised Crowns with the legislation last week after the two sides could not agree on a contract.
Current salaries for Nova Scotia Crown attorneys range from $65,329.68 for someone with less than one year of relevant experience to between $145,825.16 and $149,149.78 for a senior Crown counsel with at least 18 years of relevant experience.
The Crowns want a 17 per cent wage increase over four years, which they say would bring them closer to the national average. The government is offering seven per cent over four years.
More importantly, the government has no interest in seeing the matter reach arbitration, where it can not control the outcome.
Rather than being in court, Borden said the majority of Crowns would be at Province House protesting on Wednesday, with Cape Breton Crowns holding a satellite protest on the island.
Premier 'confident' Bill 203 is legal
Borden said the Crowns have done their best to cover serious and significant files already before the courts, such as murders and sexual assaults. All other files have been given to managers throughout the province and it would be up to the government to determine how the holes are filled when courts open on Wednesday.
Last week, the legislature's law amendments committee heard from labour law and constitutional law experts, as well as the director of the province's public prosecution service, who spoke against the bill.
One by one, they argued Bill 203 is not compliant with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, that Crowns' salaries could not be used to set a wage pattern for the rest of the public service and that the bill would create recruiting and retention problems.
Premier Stephen McNeil told reporters at Province House on Tuesday that he listened to those presentations with interest and agreed with none of them.
Premier Stephen McNeil says he's confident Bill 203 is legal, although he would not say on Tuesday if the government has a legal opinion that it is charter compliant. (Pat Callaghan/CBC)
As he has previously, McNeil said the Crowns' ask is not affordable for the province, and he believes the public shares that view.
"There's many of my constituents who would be happy with a seven per cent [increase], which they're not getting," McNeil told reporters.
Despite being repeatedly asked if his government has a written legal opinion that Bill 203 is charter compliant, the premier would not give a direct answer, instead repeating that "we're very confident that our bill will stand up."
McNeil said "lots of people give advice to government" and they base legislation around that advice.
Tory Leader Tim Houston says the government has backed Crowns into a corner by breaking the contract it signed with them just a few years ago. (Jean Laroche/CBC)
The premier predicted lawyers currently working for government departments and Legal Aid would seek similar raises if the Crowns get what they want, and said that's something the government cannot risk or afford. He said the province would look for "other ways to ensure that justice is delivered" during the strike.
But the fallout from Tuesday's announcement suggests that won't be easy.
A spokesperson for the province's public prosecution services said they are scrambling to find lawyers to cover court on Wednesday and they wouldn't be able to find people to run full prosecutions.
Chris Hansen said they would be putting matters over, for now.

The Nova Scotia branch of the Canadian Bar Association, meanwhile, called on the government to reverse course on Bill 203 and honour the deal it signed with the Crowns.
Tory Leader Tim Houston said the premier is trying to paint Crown attorneys as greedy public servants who only care about making more money.
"I think the Crowns are just feeling a little backed into the corner. They're doing important work on behalf of the province and it's unfair for the premier the way he tries to pick one soundbite and stick to it."
Houston said the premier is ignoring the caseloads of Crowns in Nova Scotia compared to the rest of Atlantic Canada and he's forced them into this situation by breaking his word.
NDP House leader Claudia Chender said the potential effect the walkout will have on the justice system is "terrifying."
"I think we've heard throughout the last several days about the role the Crown provides in our justice system," she said.
"I think it's going to be a sad day for justice and I think it that will reflect directly on this government, which has chosen to unilaterally breach a contract that has, by every expert opinion, has been done illegally."
Borden said Crowns have done their best to cover files that would be affected by the Jordan decision, a Supreme Court of Canada ruling that establishes a timeline in which a matter must be completed. But Borden said it's possible some cases might still be affected.
"The government ultimately will take responsibility for this," he said.

Lyle Howe squares off with lawyer Perry Borden at disciplinary hearing
Borden, who is black, says Howe portrayed him as the 'house n--ger' of the Public Prosecution Service
· CBC News · Posted: Oct 17, 2016 9:25 AM AT
Lyle Howe's disciplinary hearing is expected to run four days this week. (CBC)
The N-word landed with a resounding thud Monday at the Nova Scotia Barristers' Society disciplinary hearing for suspended Halifax defence lawyer Lyle Howe.
It came in a heated exchange between Howe and a witness, Crown prosecutor Perry Borden. Howe described Borden's presence in the Dartmouth prosecutors' office as being "so quiet he was almost nonexistent."
Borden, who is black, took exception to Howe's characterization.
Borden said Howe's comment made Borden appear to be the "house n--ger" of the Public Prosecution Service. Borden told the disciplinary hearing on Monday that he felt Howe was being disrespectful with his comment.
Howe became visibly upset during the exchange as he tried to pursue his line of questioning. Both panel chair Ron MacDonald and Howe's co-counsel Jeanne Sumbu intervened.
Hearing drags on
Howe's hearing before a barristers' society panel resumed Monday morning.
The society accuses Howe of professional misconduct and professional incompetence. A hearing into his conduct began late last year and has sat for several days — off and on — ever since.
The CBC's Blair Rhodes live blogged from the hearing
Most important and poignant testimony, says Howe
Borden had a prior court commitment in the afternoon, so the panel running the hearing agreed to adjourn further questioning of him until later this week.
Howe described Borden's comments as the most important and poignant testimony to come out of the hearing so far.
Howe said it speaks to his central theme — that he is the victim of systemic racism and is being singled out because he is black.
The hearing is scheduled to run for four days this week with additional sittings scheduled for November.
The three-member panel hearing the case against Howe has said it wants to conclude the hearing by the end of the year.
Crown tried to warn Howe
Following Borden's testimony, the panel heard from another Crown prosecutor, Alonzo Wright.Wright said he first became aware of Howe when he attended an awards ceremony at Dalhousie University's law school. Howe was being recognized as an outstanding student.
Wright said he was asked to mentor Howe but the two could never arrange a time to meet.
Wright told the hearing that early in Howe's career, he and another Crown met with Howe to discuss concerns being expressed about Howe's practice. Wright said he was trying to warn Howe about the pitfalls of being a defence lawyer, including being over-extended.
Wright, who is black, said he has experienced racism in his life, dating back to his time in public school and extending into the practice of law. Wright said he prosecutes cases across the province and is frequently the only black man in the courtroom and often in the community.
The panel is scheduled to sit for three more days this week.

N.S. Court of Appeal reserves decision in disbarment case of Lyle Howe
Many questions from judges on five-member panel focused on penalties levied against Howe
Former
Halifax defence lawyer Lyle Howe and lawyers for the Nova Scotia
Barristers' Society face many questions as they deal with the society's
decision to kick Howe out of the legal profession.
The questions come from the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal, which heard two days of arguments this week from Howe and the society.
Many of the questions from the judges on the five-member panel focused on the penalties levied against Howe.
A disciplinary panel of the society disbarred Howe after finding him guilty of professional misconduct and professional incompetence. The panel also imposed a cost penalty of $150,000.
Howe must pay that amount to the society before he can reapply to practise law. A society lawyer indicated during Thursday's hearing that Howe could pay in installments.
However,
the judges questioned how Howe could come up with the money, given that
he's not allowed to work in his chosen profession, and whether that
represents a permanent impediment to him returning to the practice.
The judges asked whether the court had the authority to alter or rescind the award. They also asked whether, if they accepted the society's findings of guilt, they could impose a sentence on Howe less than disbarment.
The judges gave the lawyers until the end of this month to provide written answers to those and other questions.
In his arguments, Howe submitted cases of other lawyers in other jurisdictions who, he said, had committed similar or worse offences and yet faced less severe penalties.
Howe's central argument was that the decision to disbar him violated his equality rights under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms because he was singled out for closer scrutiny and faced harsher penalties than other lawyers.
He argued that the only reason for the different treatment was that he is black.
He even went so far as to compare himself to famed civil rights crusader Viola Desmond, who was arrested after she refused to leave the whites-only section of a Nova Scotia theatre in 1947.
The lawyer for the barristers' society disputed Howe's assertions. Marjorie Hickey said Howe wasn't treated differently because of his race, but because he refused to follow the rules of his profession.
Hickey also said there was a big difference between Desmond and Howe in that she demonstrated integrity with the stand she took.
There is no indication when the court will rule on Howe's case but the judges will not have all the information they requested for another three weeks.

> Halifax, NS - The Canadian Bar Association – Nova Scotia Branch
> (“CBA-NS”) is disappointed that the government of Nova Scotia has
> introduced legislation that would remove the right of Crown Attorneys
> to send any collective bargaining disputes with government to a fair,

>
> In 2016, during the last round of bargaining, Crown Attorneys agreed

> CANADIAN BAR ASSOCIATION, NOVA SCOTIA BRANCH REACTS TO THE
> INTRODUCTION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE PROVINCIAL COURT ACT
>
> Thursday, May 5, 2016 (Halifax, NS) – Proposed amendments to the
> Provincial Court Act introduced on May 3rd in the Nova Scotia
> Legislature would seriously erode judicial independence, an important
> point the government would have understood had it took the time to
> fully and meaningfully consult with all interested parties.
>
> In a letter to the Hon. Randy Delorey, Minister of Finance, the
> Canadian Bar Association of Nova Scotia (CBANS) expressed its concerns
> over the removal of language that ensures the salaries and benefits of
> provincial and family court judges are set based on recommendations
> from an independent commission.
>
> Right now those recommendations are binding. The legislative changes,
> if passed, would give the province the legal authority to use
> discretion on whether to accept, vary or reject the recommendations of
> that commission. The CBANS is urging the government to withdraw the
> proposed amendments and maintain the current system, which has worked
> effectively and independently for almost two decades.
>
> “This is not about the judges, it’s about the people who appear in
> front of them,” said CBANS VicePresident, Dennis James, QC. “These
> changes will compromise judicial independence and are unfair to the
> people who find themselves involved in the court process, who assume
> that judges are impartial and protected from undue influences,
> including influence from government.”
>
> The CBANS is particularly concerned with comments the Minister of
> Finance made yesterday that seem to equate provincial court judges
> with public sector workers, Mr. James said.
>
> “We’re concerned the Minister’s comments minimize the importance of
> judicial independence as mandated by the Supreme Court of Canada,” Mr.
> James said. “Judges are not public sector workers – they are the third
> branch of government and the independent Tribunal has been an
> important safeguard over the separation of the roles and the
> independence of the judiciary.”
>
> The Canadian Bar Association (CBA) and the Canadian Bar Association
> Nova Scotia (CBANS) have a long tradition of speaking out in defence
> of judicial independence, and of working actively against potential
> political interference in the appointment and compensation of judges

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

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

>>>> unconsciously, would not decide fairly."
>>>>
>>>> [17] The issue to be determined is whether an informed

>>>> [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

>>>> 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

>>>>
>>>>
>>>> 28 The point can rightly be made that had Mr. Patterson been

>>>> taking the case because his firm had formerly represented one of 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

>>>>
>>>> 29 It seems to me that what appears at first sight to be an

>>>> 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

>>>> 30 That brings me then to consider the particular circumstances

>>>> 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
