Trudeau fellowships are, I believe, awarded to the top candidates who
apply for PhD funding to SSHRC each year (which most institutions make
mandatory.) I say that just to say it is a research award more than a
political affiliation, although certainly raises questions whether
it’s ever appropriate to name research fellowships after political
figures. And they def try to network with the researchers etc.

N.S. evaluating N.B. proposal to collaborate on serious incident response team

Director of Nova Scotia SIRT says momentum driven by fatal police shootings of Chantel Moore, Rodney Levi

Karissa Donkin · CBC News · Posted: Jul 24, 2020 7:30 AM AT

Nova Scotia's deputy minister is reviewing a proposal from New Brunswick to collaborate on a serious incident response team. (Shutterstock)

For years, New Brunswick has relied on agencies outside its borders to come in and investigate when there's a serious incident involving police.

But a new proposal to Nova Scotia's Serious Incident Response Team, or SIRT, could provide the province with its own version of an independent police watchdog.

Nova Scotia SIRT director Felix Cacchione said he sent New Brunswick's proposal to Nova Scotia's deputy minister of justice and is awaiting a meeting with the minister.

The idea of New Brunswick collaborating with at least one other Atlantic province on a serious incident response team isn't new.

But it's gained momentum after the fatal police shootings of two Indigenous people only days apart in June, which also prompted calls for a public inquiry into systemic racism.

Chief says pressure on Higgs for inquiry into justice system won't let up

Chantel Moore, 26, was shot and killed by an officer who was carrying out a wellness check on the Nuu-chah-nulth woman of Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation in B.C.

Days later, a Sunny Corner RCMP officer shot and killed 48-year-old Rodney Levi from Metepenagiag First Nation.

Chantel Moore, 26, and Rodney Levi, 48, were shot and killed by police in New Brunswick eight days apart. CBC has permission from Moore's family to use the photos included in this story. (CBC)

"After that, there seemed to be a renewed conversation," Cacchione said.

With half of Nova Scotia SIRT's investigators focused on investigating incidents related to the April mass shootings, the shooting deaths of Moore and Levi are being investigated by the Quebec Bureau des Enquêtes Indépendantes (BEI).

But relying on other agencies to help is not feasible in the future, according to Cacchione.

"We definitely do not have the manpower to cover the province of New Brunswick," he said.

Former government was trying to get 'consensus' on SIRT

Back in 2017, momentum seemed to be building on creating an Atlantic SIRT.

All four provinces were involved in discussions that were backed by the four premiers at the time, according to documents CBC News obtained through access to information.

So why hasn't it happened?

Denis Landry, the Liberal MLA for Bathurst East-Nepisiguit-Saint-Isidore and the minister of public safety in the previous government, said establishing such a unit would require changes to legislation, notably the Police Act.

Former New Brunswick minister of public safety, Denis Landry, said the government was trying to reach consensus with a number of organizations on the idea of a serious incident response team. (Ed Hunter/CBC)

To do that, his government was trying to obtain consensus from a number of organizations, including municipalities and police unions.

"I think there were little disagreements here and there and this is what we were working on to make or to obtain a consensus between all of those different organizations," Landry said.

He wouldn't elaborate on which stakeholder was resistant to the idea.

Without an agreement for an Atlantic SIRT, Newfoundland and Labrador went ahead and formed its own investigative team, while Prince Edward Island has a memorandum of understanding that would have Nova Scotia SIRT investigate when needed.

"Given the demands on the Nova Scotia team and their work with the other Atlantic provinces we didn't want to risk a lack of available resources should a response be required in this province," Lesley Clarke, a spokesperson for Newfoundland and Labrador's Department of Justice, wrote in an emailed statement.

"We will never close the door on collaboration with other Atlantic provinces, but we are confident our stand-alone model was the right choice for right now."

Support from police chiefs

The resistance doesn't appear to be coming from municipal police agencies.

CBC News did an informal survey of New Brunswick police forces this week to see if they would support some kind of SIRT in the province. The New Brunswick RCMP referred the question to the provincial Department of Public Safety, but all the municipal police chiefs who answered the survey said they support the idea.

"The [New Brunswick Association of Chiefs of Police] and myself have long supported the concept of an independent investigative body to investigate police. Our support for such a concept remains unchanged," Kennebecasis Regional Police Force Chief Wayne Gallant wrote in an email.

"Whether it is a [New Brunswick] only or Atlantic wide, or some other structural concept, the fact remains such a body is needed in [New Brunswick] and has been for a long time."

Estimated to use SIRT 21 times per year

There's also a clear need for an independent body, given the number of incidents in New Brunswick, according to Ron MacDonald, the former director of Nova Scotia SIRT.

"I believe that the numbers do justify it, especially either for New Brunswick to have their own team or a joint type of team that would permit this type of work to be done on a moment's notice," said MacDonald, who is now chief civilian director of the Independent Investigations Office of British Columbia.

Police chiefs in New Brunswick were asked in 2017 to try to estimate how often they'd use a SIRT if the province had one. It assumed that New Brunswick would use the same criteria as Nova Scotia SIRT, which has a mandate to investigate "all matters that involve death, serious injury, sexual assault and domestic violence or other matters of significant public interest" arising from the actions of a police officer.'

The police chiefs estimated it could be needed 21 times per year, emails show.

CBC's Deadly Force database, which tracks fatalities where police have used force, shows seven people have been killed by police in New Brunswick between 2010 and the end of June 2020.

CBC's Deadly Force database looks at role of race, mental health in deaths

That means there are many serious incidents that don't rise to the level of someone losing their life and which aren't often known publicly.

"There can be significant public issues with matters that fall short of shooting cases and when you're only picking and choosing certain ones, that does leave the potential for the public to have concerns about other cases that aren't being investigated by an independent body," MacDonald said.

Details of proposed partnership unclear

It's not clear exactly how a New Brunswick-Nova Scotia SIRT partnership would work and whether it means New Brunswick would have its own civilian director or satellite office.

As it stands, sending investigators from another province, without having extra resources or separate legislation, comes with problems, beyond the fact that other provinces may not have the resources to send.

Every time an investigator from Nova Scotia SIRT comes to New Brunswick, they need to be made a peace officer in order to do their work, according to Cacchione.

Nova Scotia SIRT doesn't have the manpower to support New Brunswick without extra resources, according its director, Felix Cacchione. (SIRT)

When they work in New Brunswick, they need the Crown to approve laying criminal charges, an added layer that isn't present in Nova Scotia, where SIRT has the power to lay charges.

It also means a delay in getting investigators on scene, which means a delay in collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses.

2019 review recommended NB develop a SIRT

That came up in a 2019 government-ordered review of the New Brunswick Police Commission, which investigates citizen complaints of officer conduct and other complaints related to policing in the province.

"SIRT investigators must have scenes secured and delays in attending a scene can impact the investigation negatively or unreasonably inconvenience the public," wrote Alphonse MacNeil, who authored the review.

MacNeil recommended the government consider developing "a SIRT entity" in New Brunswick and suggested a possible model: a two-investigator team that would work in New Brunswick under the direction of Nova Scotia's SIRT director.

It's not clear if that's the model New Brunswick prefers. No one from the Department of Public Safety was made available for an interview for this story, nor was anyone from Nova Scotia's Department of Justice.

"Minister [Carl] Urquhart has recently mentioned an interest in having a permanent independent agency to investigate police use of force, and has spoken about various options, including a regional agency serving more than one province," New Brunswick Department of Public Safety spokesperson Coreen Enos wrote in an emailed statement.

"Our discussions with Nova Scotia officials are part of our exploration of various models."

Advocates say N.S. shooting review will not have enough 'feminist analysis'

Alicia Draus and Karla Renic GlobalNews.ca

July 26, 2020 5:09 pm

WATCH: Calls for a public inquiry into the N.S. shooting are growing, as concerns are being raised that a review will not be transparent enough, and one group says it’s missing a very important perspective. Alicia Draus reports.

After the federal and provincial governments announced a joint independent review into the Nova Scotia shooting on Thursday, calls for a public inquiry are growing stronger.

One group says a review might not go far enough in ensuring full transparency, and in considering a feminist lens.

“We’ve been speaking ever since, trying to bring in the aspect of misogyny, and the connection between male violence against women and mass shootings,” says Linda MacDonald, an organizer for the Nova Scotian Feminists Fighting Femicide group.

The group has been advocating for a public inquiry into the shooting with a feminist lens.

But, on Thursday, Nova Scotia Justice Minister Mark Furey and Canada’s Public Safety Minister Bill Blair announced the governments will be doing a three-panel review of what had happened, instead of a public inquiry.

“That makes me very leery that the truth will not come out,” said Jeanne Sarson, a member of NSFFF.

“They have the power, they have the authority and they can control it,” MacDonald said.

Of the 22 victims in the April 18-19 shooting rampage, nine victims were male; 13 were female.

While part of the review’s commitments includes a look at the contributing and contextual factors, including gender-based and intimate partner violence, and police policies, procedures and training for gender-based and intimate partner violence, MacDonald and Sarson say that’s not enough.

“We’d been asking for a feminist analysis which is to look at women and women’s position and what violence against women means in Nova Scotia,” Sarson says.

“We’re asking that, from a feminist analysis, that you look at the position of women in general, and the violence that women endure, in general.”

On July 23, 10 members of parliament signed a letter supporting the review and applauding the inclusion of a feminist lens.

Saturday, MacDonald emailed the MPs saying:

“We are asking that you as Members of Parliament either retract your statement that the review includes a ‘feminist analysis’ or provide us with the written evidence that a ‘feminist analysis’ is included in the federal-provincial review mandate.”

Sarson notes that misogyny played a role in allowing the gunman’s violent past to slip through the cracks.

In 2013, Portapique resident Brenda Forbes raised concerns over the gunman’s domestic violence and reported it to the RCMP, but that complaint never went anywhere, she told Global News in April.

The NSFFF members say society as a whole failed to take these allegations seriously, and let misogynistic behavior continue.

“Brenda went to her boss, in the military, and told her boss she was being stalked, and he said ‘get used to it’,” said MacDonald.

“That’s the expansion of the misogyny beyond the police.”

MacDonald and Sarson say a public inquiry is needed to better understand how misogyny in our society can lead and contribute to violence against women and what can be done to prevent it.

A review, they said, cannot do the same.

“You’re not going to stop violence in silence, and that’s what this review is; it’s a silent process,” said MacDonald.

“We want an open participatory process.”

On Wednesday, July 29, advocates for a public inquiry are planning a peaceful march, “to support the families of the victims,” says the Facebook page.

Activists to strike in Halifax, demand public inquiry into Nova Scotia mass shooting

Staff The Canadian Press July 27, 2020 6:22 am

People are gathering at a Halifax park Monday to demand a public inquiry into the Nova Scotia mass shootings.

The gathering at Victoria Park comes less than a week after the province unveiled a plan for a panel review into the massacre.

Organizers say a 22-minute general strike will begin at noon local time to honour the 22 victims who were killed last April.

Several local women’s rights advocates, as well as Dartmouth South MLA Claudia Chender, of Nova Scotia’s New Democrats, are expected to speak at the rally.

Many of the victims’ families have called for a public inquiry into what happened during the shootings on April 18 and 19 and what led to the rampage.

Activists, lawyers, Nova Scotia opposition parties and federal senators from across Canada have also joined that call over the past several months.

But the federal and Nova Scotia governments said last week that a three-person panel would be set up to review the massacre.

That review body will be led by Michael MacDonald, a former chief justice of Nova Scotia, and includes former federal Liberal cabinet minister Anne McLellan, and Leanne Fitch, the former chief of police in Fredericton.

Nova Scotia Premier Stephen McNeil said that he believes the panel will be able to get the answers that the victims’ families are demanding.

He also told reporters that the panellists will be able to ask his government for assistance should they need it.

But critics have criticized a perceived lack of transparency and say the panel does not have enough power to lead an in-depth investigation.

The organizers of Monday’s rally expressed hope that they will be able to pressure Ottawa and Halifax to reverse course and ultimately order a public inquiry.

“We need systemic and structural change to come from this,” Martha Paynter, one of the event organizers, said in an interview on Saturday.

Protesters decry ‘shocking and paternalistic’ decision to hold review,
not inquiry into Nova Scotia mass shooting
July 27, 2020 By Yvette d'Entremont

Gathered at Victoria Park in Halifax at noon Monday for a general
strike intended to draw attention to demands for a public inquiry into
the Nova Scotia mass killing.

The event was slated to run from noon to 12:22, a 22-minute strike to
pay homage to the 22 people whose lives were taken during the weekend
of April 18-19.

“This is something that all sectors of society have asked for,” Martha
Paynter, founder and coordinator of Women’s Wellness Within, told
reporters before the event started.

Her organization works for reproductive justice, prison abolition and
health equity. It was one of several feminist community activist and
advocacy groups behind Monday’s ‘Strike back: Demand an inquiry’
event."

https://marthapaynter.ca/

‘Strike back: Demand an inquiry’ event." is a registered nurse
providing abortion and postpartum care. She is a Doctoral Candidate in
Nursing at Dalhousie University. She is the founder and coordinator of
Women’s Wellness Within, a non-profit organization supporting
criminalized women and transgender/nonbinary individuals in the
perinatal period in carceral institutions and the community. She works
to advance reproductive justice through advocacy, collaboration and
nursing scholarship.

For her nursing advocacy and research, Martha has received numerous
awards including the 2018 Rising Star Award from the Canadian
Association of Perinatal and Women’s Health Nurses, the 2018 Health
Advocacy Award from the Council of the College of Registered Nurses of
Nova Scotia, the 2018 3M National Student Fellowship, and in 2017, the
Senate of Canada Sesquicentennial Medal for volunteer service to the
country.

Martha’s doctoral research is supported by the Pierre Elliott Trudeau
Foundation, CIHR Banting-Best Canadian Doctoral Scholarship, the
Killam Predoctoral Scholarship, the Canadian Nurses Foundation,
Dalhousie University and the IWK Health Centre"

Martha Paynter was driving through New Brunswick this weekend and
texted me that she saw a billboard for the Airbnb in the old
Dorchester Jail.

Among the attractions listed on the website are that it was the site
of the last double hanging in New Brunswick (more on that in a
moment), with a highlight being that guests can stay in the former
cells.

Ray Adlington named to CBA Board of Directors

May 2, 2017

Halifax partner Ray Adlington was recently named to the CBA Board of Directors.

In their announcement yesterday the CBA advised that the board would
come into effect September 1st, 2017.

After collecting extensive input over the past two years, we know
that CBA members believe it’s important for the organization to have a
Board of Directors that reflects the diversity of the legal
profession, including a mix of practice types, experience, skills,
geography and more.
Our new Board of Directors exemplifies this principle.

The board is composed from one member from each province as well as
the CBA President.

Congratulations Ray on this well deserved appointment.

>>> 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
>>> Mr. Amos and Patterson Palmer is a copy of an affidavit of Stephen May
>>> 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
>>> that were sent by Mr. Amos to Stephen May. Mr. Amos also included a
>>> letter that is addressed to four individuals, one of whom is John
>>> Crosbie who was counsel to the St. John’s NL office of Patterson
>>> 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

>>> [19] Justice Webb had no involvement with any matter

>>>
>>> [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

>>> 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.

>>> 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

>>>
>>> [29] The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following

>>> “The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called

>>>
>>> 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

>>>
>>> [35] The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim

Threat against Burke taken seriously

By STEPHEN LLEWELLYN
dgleg@nb.aibn.com
Published Thursday May 24th, 2007
Appeared on page A1
An RCMP security detail has been guarding Justice Minister and
Attorney General T.J. Burke because of threats made against him
recently.

Burke, the Liberal MLA for Fredericton-Fort Nashwaaksis, wouldn't
explain the nature of the threats.

"I have had a particular individual or individuals who have made
specific overtures about causing harm towards me," he told reporters
Wednesday.

"The RCMP has provided security to me recently by accompanying me to a
couple of public functions where the individual is known to reside or
have family members in the area," said Burke. "It is nice to have some
added protection and that added comfort."

The RCMP provides protection to the premier and MLAs with its VIP security unit.

Burke didn't say when the threat was made but it's believed to have
been in recent weeks.

"When a threat is posed to you and it is a credible threat, you have
to be cautious about where you go and who you are around," he said.
"But again, I am more concerned about my family as opposed to my own
personal safety."

Burke said he doesn't feel any differently and he has not changed his
pattern of activity.

"It doesn't bother me one bit," he said. "It makes my wife feel awful nervous."

Burke served in an elite American military unit before becoming a
lawyer and going into politics in New Brunswick.

"(I) have taken my own precautions and what I have to do to ensure my
family's safety," he said. "I am a very cautious person in general due
to my background and training.

"I am comfortable with defending myself or my family if it ever had to happen."

Burke said it is not uncommon for politicians to have security concerns.

"We do live unfortunately in an age and in a society now where threats
have to be taken pretty seriously," he said.

Since the terrorism attacks in the United States on Sept. 11, 2001,
security in New Brunswick has been
beefed up.

Metal detectors were recently installed in the legislature and all
visitors are screened.

The position of attorney general is often referred to as the
province's "top cop."

Burke said sometimes people do not differentiate between his role as
the manager of the justice system and the individual who actually
prosecutes them.

"With the job sometimes comes threats," he said. "I have had numerous
threats since Day 1 in office."

Burke said he hopes his First Nations heritage has nothing to do with it.

"I think it is more of an issue where people get fixated on a matter
and they believe you are personally responsible for assigning them
their punishment or their sanction," he said.

Is the threat from someone who was recently incarcerated?

"I probably shouldn't answer that," he replied.

Reporters asked when the threat would be over.

"I don't think a threat ever passes once it has been made," said
Burke. "You have to consider the credibility of the source."

Bruce Fitch, former justice minister in the Conservative government,
said "every now and again there would be e-mails that were not
complimentary."

"I did have a meeting with the RCMP who are in charge of the security
of the MLAs and ministers," said Fitch.

"They look at each and every situation."

Fitch said he never had bodyguards assigned to him although former
premier Bernard Lord and former health minister Elvy Robichaud did
have extra security staff assigned on occasion.

He said if any MLA felt threatened, he or she would discuss it with the RCMP.

Protesters decry ‘shocking and paternalistic’ decision to hold review, not inquiry into Nova Scotia mass shooting

July 27, 2020 By Yvette d'Entremont

Gathered at Victoria Park in Halifax at noon Monday for a general strike intended to draw attention to demands for a public inquiry into the Nova Scotia mass killing.

The event was slated to run from noon to 12:22, a 22-minute strike to pay homage to the 22 people whose lives were taken during the weekend of April 18-19.

“This is something that all sectors of society have asked for,” Martha Paynter, founder and coordinator of Women’s Wellness Within, told reporters before the event started.

Her organization works for reproductive justice, prison abolition and health equity. It was one of several feminist community activist and advocacy groups behind Monday’s ‘Strike back: Demand an inquiry’ event.

“This is really a minimum response to the largest massacre in Canada in our lifetimes and it’s required to even begin to deal with the trauma this province has experienced,” she said.

On Thursday, the provincial and federal governments announced a joint independent review would be conducted into the tragedy rather than a public inquiry. That’s what victims’ families, national women’s organizations, senators, and many others had asked for.

Condemnation of the decision was swift. A petition started Thursday night demanding a public inquiry into the tragedy already has more than 14,000 signatures. The Facebook group ‘Nova Scotians for a Public Inquiry’ was started around the same time and already has 15,000 members.

Halifax resident Sylvie Boisvert was one of the people who attended Monday’s event. In an interview in French, she said she felt compelled to support the families and their united call for a public inquiry. Boisvert described the decision to hold a review instead of a public inquiry as “horrifying” and adding further heartbreak to the families of the 22 victims.

“When they announced this last week it was like when a company says, ‘We are reducing our hours of service to better serve you.’ I had the impression that they (government) think we’re a bunch of idiots,” Boisvert said.

“They want to make it look like they’re doing something, but in reality it’s all hidden and we know nothing will come of it. Since all of this happened, I have felt much less safe and I’ve lost all confidence in this government … I am heartbroken that on top of everything else, these families now have to fight for what should be obvious.”

About 200 people descended on Victoria Park Monday to participate in a 22-minute event to demand

a public inquiry–not a review–into the Nova Scotia’s mass shooting. — Photo: Jennifer Henderson

The event began with Paynter naming each of the 22 victims killed in the massacre. She then listed 22 reasons why Nova Scotians were demanding a full and transparent public inquiry. Many of the reasons listed were met with applause.

They included: because 22 people including a pregnant woman were murdered in less than 24 hours and each of those murders were preventable; because the victims’ families asked for a public inquiry and were denied; because the murders are rooted in gender-based violence and misogyny; because only recommendations from a public inquiry can be enforced; because this is the largest mass shooting in Canada in our lifetimes; because the police and the government are public servants and they are accountable to the public; because we deserve to know what happened.

A table was also set up onsite for people to sign pre-printed letters to mail themselves. Paynter also urged those present to email Premier Stephen McNeil and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and demand an inquiry.

Sheri Lecker, executive director of Adsum for Women and Children, was one of seven speakers to directly address the crowd. She said this was an exercise in which all Canadians needed to share and participate. She described it as “shocking and paternalistic” of government to try and determine what information the families of the victims could and could not handle, adding that the families have asked for a public inquiry and deserve nothing less.

“We like you are very concerned that it appears that for years, red flags, whispers, even outright complaints to police about the perpetrator’s domestic violence and accumulation of guns went unheeded,” Lecker said.

The event closed with a poem written by Halifax poet, professor, writer and activist El Jones. In the wee hours of Monday morning, she wrote a powerful piece about the need for a full and transparent public inquiry. The two and a half minute delivery was met with great cheers and applause.

The sentiments expressed by the speakers at Monday’s event were echoed by members of the public who spoke with the Halifax Examiner. James Misener said he believed the decision to hold a review rather than a public inquiry was “a total cop out” by the federal and provincial governments.

“There are many things that are hidden and the victims’ families will never get the answers they require this way. A review is just a way to put it under the rug,” Misener said.

“I was devastated to hear their decision but I wasn’t surprised…There’s no accountability any more and we need accountability.”

Judith Scrimger came to Halifax from Ashdale, Hants County to lend her support to the families of the victims who have been vocal in their demands for a public inquiry. She believes the families–and all Nova Scotians–deserve to know what happened not only during the massacre, but the events leading up to it. She said to move forward and learn, we need to know what failures and missteps led to the tragedy.

“The only way to do that is to make sure we’re transparent and we know what happened and we know who said what to whom,” she said. “A public inquiry is the only way that’s going to happen.”

event to demand a public inquiry into April’s mass shooting. — Photo: Yvette d’Entremont

Carol Millett echoed the comments of many others who attended, noting that she believes a public inquiry is the only way to get accountability from politicians, decision makers and the RCMP.

“They have to be held accountable, and the only way to do that is to get to the truth and we can only get to the truth if we require them to speak under an oath to tell the truth, simple as that,” she said.

There was also a peaceful march held in Bridgewater at 11 a.m. Monday outside of provincial Justice Minister Mark Furey’s office. Among those who participated in the march demanding a public inquiry were the families of victims Joey Webber and Joy and Peter Bond.

A peaceful march to support the victims’ families in their demand for a public inquiry is taking place on Wednesday. At 10 a.m., family members and their supporters will march from the ferry terminal to Province House. Their stated goal is a reversal of the decision to hold only a review.

"There is nothing in the evidence that warrants the continued
detention of Dennis Oland."

Richard Oland's body was found face down in a pool of blood in his
Saint John office on July 7, 2011.

He had suffered 45 blunt and sharp force blows to his head, neck and
hands, although no weapon was ever found.

Gold said the trial judge's instructions at the end of the trial
allowed the jurors to conclude that since there was little blood on
Dennis Oland's brown jacket there would be little blood on his
cellular telephone.

    "There is nothing in the evidence that warrants the continued
detention of Dennis Oland."

The lawyer said the judge should have provided instructions that
cautioned against this kind of reasoning.

Gold argued there was plenty of evidence that there should have been a
large amount of blood splatter on the jacket, and he added the
miniscule stains on Oland's jacket were never identified as spatter.

The lawyer also said bail should be granted because of trial evidence
Dennis Oland wasn't at his father's office when a witness described
hearing thumping sounds coming from the room, but instead shopping in
the Saint John suburb of Rothesay.

In an affidavit filed with the court, Oland says he would continue to
work as a director of his father's companies and live at home with his
wife, Lisa, if granted bail.

Both his mother and uncle say they have unencumbered assets of at
least $1 million each and are prepared to provide whatever level of
bail the court may set.

Justice John Walsh said in his sentencing ruling Thursday in Saint
John that the younger Oland, an investment advisor, "simply lost it,
snapped, or exploded."

Following his conviction, Oland's mother Connie said in statement the
family was shocked by the outcome and that she and other family
members continued to believe he was innocent.

The Olands are an establishment family in the history of the
Maritimes, having founded Moosehead Breweries, although Richard Oland
left the family business in 1981.

During the trial, the Crown focused on possible motives, including
Dennis Oland's financial difficulties and the knowledge his father was
having an affair.

The key piece of evidence for the Crown was a brown jacket worn by
Dennis Oland that had a number of small blood stains and also DNA that
matched the profile of Richard Oland.

Dennis Oland appeal halts review of police investigation of father's murder
New Brunswick Police Commission does not want its review to affect
Dennis Oland's proceedings By Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon, CBC News Posted:
Jan 29, 2016 3:54 PM AT

The New Brunswick Police Commission has suspended its review of the
Saint John Police Force's handling of the Richard Oland murder
investigation, citing Dennis Oland's appeal.

"We wish to ensure that a Commission investigation does not affect or
impact the ongoing criminal proceedings," the commission said in a
statement released on Friday.

"It is the Commission's intention to resume the investigation at the
conclusion of the criminal proceedings," it said.

Dennis Oland, 47, was found guilty by a jury on Dec. 19 of
second–degree murder in the 2011 bludgeoning death of his
multimillionaire father.

His lawyers filed a notice of appeal and an application for bail with
the New Brunswick Court of Appeal in Fredericton on Jan. 20.

They are seeking to have the conviction quashed, and either an
acquittal entered or a new trial ordered.

Oland is scheduled to be sentenced on Feb. 11, with his request for
bail slated to be heard the following day.

The commission, an independent provincial oversight body, launched its
review just days after Oland's conviction, at the request of the
then-chair of the Saint John Board of Police Commissioners.

Nicole Paquet said at the time she felt the review was necessary for
the public's confidence in the force, and that it would also be
important for the morale of the police officers themselves.

Several problems with the murder investigation were highlighted during
the high-profile trial.

The jury heard evidence that police failed to protect the crime scene
from possible contamination, used the bathroom located in the foyer
outside the victim's office for two days before it was forensically
tested, and never tested the back door for evidence.

A key piece of evidence in the Crown's case against Oland — a
blood-stained brown sports jacket — was also handled by the former
lead investigator with his bare hands and rolled up into a 30
centimetre by 30 centimetre paper exhibit bag by another officer, the
jury heard.

Kathleen Lordon, a lawyer and former Crown prosecutor, had already
been selected by the commission to handle the review.

Once it's complete, the results and any recommendations will be
advanced to the minister of public safety for consideration, officials
have said.

The body of Richard Oland, 69, was discovered laying face down in a
pool of blood in his Saint John office on July 7, 2011. He had
suffered 45 sharp and blunt force injuries to his head, neck and
hands.

His son, Dennis Oland, was the last known person to see his father
alive during a meeting at his office the night before.

Oland was deemed a suspect on the first day of the investigation, but
wasn't charged until more than two years later, on Nov. 13, 2013.

Dennis Oland murder trial sees new Crown prosecutor appointed
Paul (P.J.) Veniot takes over for John Henheffer just weeks before
trial is scheduled to start By Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon, CBC News

The lead Crown prosecutor in the Dennis Oland murder trial has been
replaced, just weeks before the jury trial is scheduled to start, CBC
News has learned.

John Henheffer has been handling the file since at least November
2013, when Oland was charged with second-degree murder in the July
2011 death of his father, prominent Saint John businessman Richard
Oland.

But Henheffer has had to step aside for personal health reasons,
officials from the Office of the Attorney General said in an emailed
statement late Wednesday afternoon.

Retired Crown prosecutor Paul (P.J.) Veniot has taken over, as of Tuesday.

"We can confirm that P.J. Veniot has joined the prosecution's team for
the trial of R v Dennis Oland," the statement said.
ns-hi-richard-oland-852

Richard Oland, 69, was found dead in his Saint John office on July 7,
2011. (Canadian Yachting Association)

"The trial will continue as scheduled."

Jury selection is scheduled to begin on Sept. 8 at Harbour Station.
About 3,000 people have received summonses — 10 times the normal jury
panel.

The trial itself is slated to start on Sept. 16 and is expected to last 65 days.

Gary Miller, one of Oland's defence lawyers, has previously referred
to the Crown's file as "voluminous."

Veniot won't be alone, however. There are two other Crown prosecutors
involved — Patrick Wilbur and Derek Weaver.

Oland, 46, is accused of killing his father, whose body was discovered
in his uptown office on July 7, 2011.

Several pre-trial hearings have been held in recent months, including
one on Wednesday, but details about them are subject to a publication
ban.
Veteran prosecutor

Veniot, the former senior regional Crown prosecutor for northeastern
New Brunswick, has handled other high-profile cases over the years,
including the murder trial of Justin Bourque, who went on a shooting
rampage in Moncton in June 2014, killing three Mounties and wounding
two others.

prosecution's team for Dennis Oland's second-degree murder trial.
(CBC)

Bourque, who pleaded guilty to three counts of first-degree murder and
two counts of attempted murder, was sentenced to life in prison with
no chance of parole for 75 years — the longest sentence in Canadian
history, and the harshest since the death penalty was abolished.

Veniot was also the Crown prosecutor who recommended fisheries
officers lay charges in 2011 against the brother of then-deputy
premier Paul Robichaud, despite a directive that the case be dropped.

Veniot testified he also refused a request from the head of
enforcement that he find a way to withdraw the charges against Donat
Robichaud after they'd been laid.

Robichaud wound up pleading guilty in April 2012 to one charge of
violating the Aquaculture Act at his oyster farm, was ordered to pay a
$480 fine and a 20 per cent victim surcharge.

Veniot also served as counsel to the coroner during the inquest into
the death of Serena Perry.

Perry, 22, was an involuntary psychiatric patient at the Saint John
Regional Hospital when her body was discovered on Feb. 14, 2012, in
the hospital's amphitheatre, which is located in another section of
the facility.

No charges were ever laid in the case, but the coroner's jury deemed
her death a homicide and made 11 recommendations to help prevent other
similar deaths.

Among them was that New Brunswick follow the lead of several other
provinces and introduce community treatment order legislation.

Oland continues to live in the community under several conditions,
pending his trial. His extended family has stood by him from the
beginning, maintaining his innocence.

'Enough is enough,' Oland lawyers argue
Family subjected to 'media frenzy,' 'poison climate,' say Gary Miller
and Bill Teed
By Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon , CBC News Posted: Sep 07, 2013 2:06 PM AT

summer, argued strenuously to keep information related to the Richard
Oland murder investigation confidential. (CBC)

Dennis Oland's lawyer urged New Brunswick's chief provincial court
judge, behind closed doors last summer, to keep information related to
his client and the Richard Oland murder investigation sealed.

Gary Miller argued there was already a "poison climate" against Dennis.

"I mean, this has been a media frenzy," he said during the Aug. 17,
2012 hearing, redacted copies of court transcripts made public on
Friday reveal.

He suggested the media coverage was becoming "tabloid journalism."

nb-si-dennisoldand-220

Police consider Dennis Oland, Richard Oland's son, the prime suspect
in the murder, court documents show.

"And there comes a time when a court can say, an innocent person can
stand up and say, 'Enough is enough.'"

Miller made the statements nine months before additional documents
were subsequently released, identifying Dennis, 45, as the prime
suspect in his father's murder.

Those documents suggested a possible financial motive. He owed his
father more than $500,000 and is described as being "on the edge
financially."

Richard Oland, 69, a prominent businessman, was found murdered in his
uptown Saint John office on July 7, 2011.

No charges have been laid, although Police Chief Bill Reid has said he
expects charges to be laid this year.

CBC News and Brunswick News have been fighting since late 2011 for the
release of as much information as possible related to the
investigation.

Halifax-based lawyer David Coles, who is representing the media
outlets, contends public scrutiny is key to ensuring the proper
administration of justice.
ns-si-richard-oland

Richard Oland, 69, was found dead in his Saint John office on July 7, 2011.

"In the darkness of secrecy, evil has full swing," he said in court on
Friday, in a bid to have closed-door testimony by the lead
investigator last summer made public.

Const. Stephen Davidson testified behind closed doors in order to be
able to speak freely about search warrants, which were sealed at the
time. But once those warrants were released, there was no longer a
justification to keep the testimony sealed, Coles argued.

Chief Judge R. Leslie Jackson agreed to release the transcripts with
some sections blacked out, which was uncontested by the Crown, Dennis'
lawyer, and Bill Teed, who is representing other members of the Oland
family.

"Therefore, the public, the media, should be able to read what [the
officer] said to understand the thinking of the police, their approach
to this case, what they've done, so that again, the public can form
its own opinion as to whether the police, the judges, the lawyers, are
doing their job properly, that this investigation is proceeding as it
should," Coles told reporters outside the courtroom.

"It's only by being an informed public that our democracy and the open
court principle make sense," he said.

BROADCAST DATE : Feb 19, 2016
The Richard Oland Case: Murder in the Family

It was called the trial of the century in New Brunswick - - a
confluence of celebrity, money and murder. Richard Oland of the
Moosehead brewing family -- one of the richest, most powerful men in
the region – was dead, bludgeoned in his office. Charged and convicted
with the brutal killing, the victim’s son, Dennis Oland. Last week,
Dennis Oland was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole
for 10 years in the 2011 killing.

It’s a case where many felt family influence and clout would prevail.
Police were accused of fumbling the high-profile case and now there is
an appeal. Bob McKeown investigates a tangled family tale that ended
in murder – with many questions still unanswered.

At the 17 minute mark, CBC talks about Oland's posture - however,
there was no mention made of the fact that Oland had spoken to his
lawyer who had told him NOT to say anything more the police. Despite
that, the police continued to badger him. Oland could have left at any
time; however, he did not. He just did not answer any more questions
or respond to the badgering. By not reporting this properly, CBC has
implied that Oland was not cooperating with the police. This is
patently untrue!

Couldn't believe the various psyche stripping, manipulative techniques
used in the police interview with Dennis Oland: seemed bizarre to hear
the interrogator repeatedly stating his presumption of guilt again &
again to someone who hadn't even been to trial. This ordeal appeared
designed merely to frazzle the suspect into confessing to just about
any crime in order to escape this inquisition. A weird "protocol"
indeed; and last Friday it was announced that a lawyer is not

Clearly, there were 2 empty parking spaces available for Dennis' car
in his father's parking lot but a camera filmed him pulling in to a
more distant lot....I leave it to viewers to surmise why Dennis did
not want his parked car spotted too close to his father's office
during his third visit that evening of the brutal murder....

Dennis Oland has to make his maker someday and for what he planned and
did for Richard, should spend his life in jail. Enough of this feeling
sorry for a killer.

> 22. The Plaintiff states that on or about September 13, 2007 during a
> conversation with the office of the Speaker of the House of Commons he
> was referred to the Sergeant-at-Arms in order to find out if the
> Plaintiff was truly barred from the House of Commons and if he had

> Plaintiff from a past life and quickly hung up the telephone. The
> Sergeant-at-Arms never did answer the Plaintiff and ignored all his
> contacts ever since.
>
> 23. The Plaintiff states that the odd response from Sergeant-at-Arms
> of the House of Commons caused him to research how they knew each
> other. The public record states that in June of 2005 the RCMP officer
> acting as Aide-de-Camp to the NB Lieutenant Governor retired and
> joined the House of Commons as Director of Security Operations. On
> September 1, 2006, he became the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of
> Commons. Therefore, because of all three of his positions from June of
> 2004 to December of 2014, the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of Commons
> must have agreed and seconded his fellow Sergeant-at-Arms in NB and
> his threats to arrest Plaintiff if he reappeared on parliamentary
> property.
>
> 24. The Plaintiff states that with regards to this complaint about
> being illegally barred from parliamentary properties, the most recent
> contact from the Crown was the three members of the RCMP who harassed
> the Plaintiff at 1:30 AM on December 16, 2014 not long after he had
> received an email from a former CSIS agent who is the current

> Counterclaim, had made allegations against Mr. Matthews in a
> publication called "My Inheritance - The truth - Not Fiction: A Town

> Matthews had had sex with a girl who had been prostituted by her
> mother. That girl was alleged to have been Mr. Prior's sister.
>
> THAT upon being retained, Mr. Edward Roberts wrote a letter to Mr.
> Prior. That letter to Mr. Prior is attached as Exhibit "1" to my Affidavit.
>
> THAT subsequent to Mr. Roberts' letter to Mr. Prior, Mr. Roberts
> received a 1 May 2002 e-mail from Mr. Prior. That e-mail is attached

> that he was satisfied not to pursue the matter any further and our
> firm closed our file.
>
> THAT on or about 25 October 2004, I was retained by Mr. Matthews
> following his gaining knowledge that a web site, made a series of
> allegations against him relating to my having sex with a girl of
> approximately 12 years old through to an approximate age of 15 years
> old. It also accused him of being a father of one of her children and
> accused him of having raped that girl. Upon checking the web site I
> saw that Byron Prior, the Defendant, had been identified as the author
> of the material on the site.
>
> THAT Mr. Matthews instructed me to write Mr. Prior, to remind him of
> the fact that the allegations had been admitted to being false through
> a 16 May 2002 Affidavit to advise him of Mr. Matthews' intentions to
> commence legal proceedings if the comments were not removed from the
> web site. A copy of my letter to Mr. Prior is attached as Exhibit "4"
> to this Affidavit.

>> David Raymond Amos Versus The Crown T-1557-15
>>
>> 81. The Plaintiff states that matters of harassment that the police
>> refuse to investigate would have entered the realm of ridiculous in
>> 2012 if the reasons behind the suicides of teenagers did not become
>> well known by the corporate media. In the summer of 2012 a new member
>> of the FPS who as a former member of the EPS had inspired a lawsuit
>> for beating a client in Edmonton called the Plaintiff and accused him
>> of something he could not do even if he wanted to while he was arguing
>> many lawyers byway of emails about a matter concerning cyber stalking
>> that was before the SCC. The member of the FPF accused the Plaintiff
>> of calling the boss of Bullying Canada thirty times. At that time his
>> MagicJack account had been hacked and although he could receive
>> incoming calls, the Plaintiff could not call out to anyone. The
>> Plaintiff freely sent the FPF his telephone logs sourced from
>> MagicJack after his account restored without the Crown having to issue
>> a warrant to see his telephone records. He asked the FPF and the RCMP
>> where did the records of his phone calls to and from the FPF and the
>> RCMP go if his account had not been hacked. The police never
>> responded. Years later a Troll sent Dean Roger Ray a message through
>> YouTube providing info about the Plaintiff’s MagicJack account with
>> the correct password. Dean Roger Ray promptly posted two videos in
>> YouTube clearly displaying the blatant violation of privacy likely to
>> protect himself from the crime. The Plaintiff quickly pointed out the
>> videos to the RCMP and they refused to investigate as usual. At about
>> the same point in time the Plaintiff noticed that the CBC had
>> published a record of a access to information requests. On the list of
>> requests he saw his name along with several employees of CBC and the
>> boss of Bullying Canada. The Plaintiff called the CBC to make
>> inquiries about what he saw published on the Internet. CBC told him it
>> was none of his business and advised him if he thought his rights had
>> been offended to file a complaint. It appears the Plaintiff that
>> employees of CBC like other questionable Crown Corporations such as
>> the RCMP rely on their attorneys far too much to defend them from
>> litigation they invite from citizens they purportedly serve. The
>> employees of CBC named within the aforementioned and the CBC Legal
>> Dept. are very familiar with the Plaintiff and of the Crown barring
>> him from legislative properties while he running for public office.
>>
>> 82. The Plaintiff states that any politician or police officer should
>> have seen enough of Barry Winter’s WordPress blog by June 22, 2015
>> particularly after the very unnecessary demise of two men in Alberta
>> because of the incompetence of the EPS. Barry Winters was blogging
>> about the EPS using battering ram in order to execute a warrant for a
>> 250 dollar bylaw offence at the same time Professor Kris Wells
>> revealed in a televised interview that the EPS member who was killed
>> was the one investigating the cyber harassment of him. It was obvious
>> why the police and politicians ignored all the death threats, sexual
>> harassment, cyberbullying and hate speech of a proud Zionist who
>> claimed to be a former CF officer who now working for the Department
>> of National Defence (DND). It is well known that no politician in
>> Canada is allowed to sit in Parliament as a member of the major
>> parties unless they support Israel. Since 2002 the Plaintiff made it
>> well known that he does not support Israeli actions and was against
>> the American plan to make war on Iraq. On Aril 1, 2003 within two
>> weeks of the beginning of the War on Iraq, the US Secret Service
>> threatened to practice extraordinary rendition because false
>> allegations of a Presidential threat were made against him by an
>> American court. However, the Americans and the Crown cannot deny that
>> what he said in two courts on April 1, 2003 because he published the
>> recordings of what was truly said as soon as he got the court tapes.
>> The RCMP knows those words can still be heard on the Internet today.
>> In 2009, the Plaintiff began to complain of Barry Winters about
>> something far more important to Canada as nation because of Winters’
>> bragging of being one of 24 CF officers who assisted the Americans in
>> the planning the War on Iraq in 2002. In the Plaintiff’s humble
>> opinion the mandate of the DND is Defence not Attack. He is not so
>> naive to think that such plans of war do not occur but if Barry
>> Winters was in fact one of the CF officers who did so then he broke
>> his oath to the Crown the instant he bragged of it in his blog. If
>> Winters was never an officer in the CF then he broke the law by
>> impersonating an officer. The Plaintiff downloaded the emails of the
>> Privy Council about Wikileaks. The bragging of Barry Winters should
>> have been investigated in 2009 before CBC reported that documents
>> released by WikiLeaks supported his information about Canadian
>> involvement in the War on Iraq.
>>
>> 83. The Plaintiff states that now that Canada is involved in more war
>> in Iraq again it did not serve Canadian interests and reputation to
>> allow Barry Winters to publish the following words three times over
>> five years after he began his bragging:

>> Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide
>> behind Amerka’s and NATO’s skirts.
>>
>> When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien
>> actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign
>> in Iraq, the Coalition of the Willing. This was against or contrary to
>> the wisdom or advice of those of us Canadian officers that were
>> involved in the initial planning phases of that operation. There were
>> significant concern in our planning cell, and NDHQ about of the dearth
>> of concern for operational guidance, direction, and forces for
>> operations after the initial occupation of Iraq. At the “last minute”
>> Prime Minister Chretien and the Liberal government changed its mind.
>> The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not
>> deploy combat troops for the Iraq campaign, but would deploy a
>> Canadian Battle Group to Afghanistan, enabling our amerkan cousins to
>> redeploy troops from there to Iraq. The PMO’s thinking that it was
>> less costly to deploy Canadian Forces to Afghanistan than Iraq. But
>> alas no one seems to remind the Liberals of Prime Minister Chretien’s
>> then grossly incorrect assumption. Notwithstanding Jean Chretien’s
>> incompetence and stupidity, the Canadian Army was heroic,
>> professional, punched well above it’s weight, and the PPCLI Battle
>> Group, is credited with “saving Afghanistan” during the Panjway
>> campaign of 2006.
>>
>> What Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don’t tell you now, is that then
>> Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chretien committed, and deployed the
>> Canadian army to Canada’s longest “war” without the advice, consent,
>> support, or vote of the Canadian Parliament.
>>
>> What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling
>> chattering classes are too addled to understand is the deployment of
>> less than 75 special operations troops, and what is known by planners
>> as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a
>> deployment of a Battle Group, nor a “war” make.
>>
>> The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have
>> the “constitutional authority” to commit the Canadian nation to war.
>> That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by
>> constitutional scholar Phillippe Legasse. What Parliament can do is
>> remove “confidence” in The Crown’s Government in a “vote of
>> non-confidence.” That could not happen to the Chretien Government
>> regarding deployment to Afghanistan, and it won’t happen in this
>> instance with the conservative majority in The Commons regarding a
>> limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.
>>
>> President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror
>> attacks in New York; that the Taliban “occupied” and “failed state”
>> Afghanistan was the source of logistical support, command and control,
>> and training for the Al Quaeda war of terror against the world. The
>> initial defeat, and removal from control of Afghanistan was vital and
>> essential for the security and tranquility of the developed world. An
>> ISIS “caliphate,” in the Middle East, no matter how small, is a clear
>> and present danger to the entire world. This “occupied state,”
>> or“failed state” will prosecute an unending Islamic inspired war of
>> terror against not only the “western world,” but Arab states
>> “moderate” or not, as well. The security, safety, and tranquility of
>> Canada and Canadians are just at risk now with the emergence of an
>> ISIS“caliphate” no matter how large or small, as it was with the
>> Taliban and Al Quaeda “marriage” in Afghanistan.
>>
>> One of the everlasting “legacies” of the “Trudeau the Elder’s dynasty
>> was Canada and successive Liberal governments cowering behind the
>> amerkan’s nuclear and conventional military shield, at the same time
>> denigrating, insulting them, opposing them, and at the same time
>> self-aggrandizing ourselves as “peace keepers,” and progenitors of
>> “world peace.” Canada failed. The United States of Amerka, NATO, the
>> G7 and or G20 will no longer permit that sort of sanctimonious
>> behavior from Canada or its government any longer. And Prime Minister
>> Stephen Harper, Foreign Minister John Baird , and Cabinet are fully
>> cognizant of that reality. Even if some editorial boards, and pundits
>> are not.
>>
>> Justin, Trudeau “the younger” is reprising the time “honoured” liberal
>> mantra, and tradition of expecting the amerkans or the rest of the
>> world to do “the heavy lifting.” Justin Trudeau and his “butt buddy”
>> David Amos are telling Canadians that we can guarantee our security
>> and safety by expecting other nations to fight for us. That Canada can
>> and should attempt to guarantee Canadians safety by providing
>> “humanitarian aid” somewhere, and call a sitting US president a “war
>> criminal.” This morning Australia announced they too, were sending
>> tactical aircraft to eliminate the menace of an ISIS “caliphate.”
>>
>> In one sense Prime Minister Harper is every bit the scoundrel Trudeau
>> “the elder” and Jean ‘the crook” Chretien was. Just As Trudeau, and
>> successive Liberal governments delighted in diminishing,
>> marginalizing, under funding Canadian Forces, and sending Canadian
>> military men and women to die with inadequate kit and modern
>> equipment; so too is Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Canada’s F-18s are
>> antiquated, poorly equipped, and ought to have been replaced five
>> years ago. But alas, there won’t be single RCAF fighter jock that

>>
>> My Grandfather served this country. My father served this country. My

>> other drooling fools have not served this great nation in any way. Yet
>> these fools are more than prepared to ensure their, our safety to
>> other nations, and then criticize them for doing so.
>>
>> Canada must again, now, “do our bit” to guarantee our own security,
>> and tranquility, but also that of the world. Canada has never before

> A prominent Cape Breton businessman plans to fight a $399.91 Motor
> Vehicle Act ticket he received after he was involved in a fatal
> collision.
>
> Douglas Parker Rudderham is president and CEO of Quebec-based Pharmacy
> Wholesale Services Inc., a company that bills itself on its website as
> “the largest privately held wholesale medical diagnostics distributor
> in North America.”
>
> “It’s like anybody else, you get a speeding ticket, and you don’t
> agree with it, you contest it,” said Joel Pink, Rudderham’s lawyer.
>
> The 57-year-old also owns Coltsfoot Publishing, which publishes
> Halifax-based Frankmagazine, a news, commentary and satire magazine
> that tackles everything from politics to the local rumour mill.
>
> On Sept. 14, Rudderham was driving his Cadillac Escalade in Sydney,
> N.S. around 4 p.m. when his vehicle collided with a motorcycle
> travelling in front of him.
>
> The motorcycle driver, 67-year-old Jack MacDonald, was pronounced dead
> at the scene.
>
> Since then, the collision has been the talk of Cape Breton, said
> MacDonald’s sister-in-law, who did not want to be named. “You can’t go
> anywhere. Everybody’s talking about it.”
>
> MacDonald’s sister-in-law said he once sat on a committee to have
> traffic lights installed at the intersection. “He tried really, really
> hard but to no avail.”
>
> MacDonald was on his way home from getting a haircut when the
> collision happened, she said.
>
> Investigators ruled out criminal negligence in the collision, but
> police “still believe that (Rudderham) was responsible for the
> collision,” said Cape Breton Regional Police Service spokeswoman
> Desiree Vassallo.
>
> He has been charged with failing to drive or operate a motor vehicle
> in a careful and prudent manner under the Motor Vehicle Act, she said.
> In addition to a fine, the charge carries a penalty of six demerit
> points.
>
> Pink said Rudderham, who goes by his middle name, Parker, intends to
> plead not guilty in January, sending the matter to trial.
>
> “Mr. Rudderham believes in principle. He’s not the type of person who
> pleads (guilty) to something that he didn’t do just to get out of it,”
> Pink said.
>
> “He could pay $399 and go home and accumulate six points and that’s it
> . . . but he definitely says that he was not driving carelessly or
> imprudently.”
>
> Pink said his client is grieving for MacDonald’s family.

Anti-masking groups draw from anti-vaccination playbook to spread misinformation

Downplaying dangers of COVID-19, taking research out of context are common strategies, experts say

Nicole Ireland · CBC News · Posted: Jul 27, 2020 4:00 AM ET

A woman holds a sign at an anti-mask rally in Toronto on July 25. Messages decrying both mandatory masks and vaccines are common at such protests. Canadian public health officials have never suggested that it would be mandatory to be immunized against COVID-19 if a vaccine was successfully developed. (Michael Cole/CBC)

As more regions across the country adopt mandatory masking policies in an effort to minimize the spread of COVID-19, some anti-masking groups are joining forces with anti-vaccination proponents and adopting their techniques to spread misinformation and amplify their message.

The similarities between organized anti-masking and anti-vaccine movements are striking, said Maya Goldenberg, an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Guelph specializing in vaccine hesitancy.

At least one anti-masking group, Hugs Over Masks, actively partners with Vaccine Choice Canada, one of the country's most prominent anti-vaccination organizations.

Vladislav Sobolev, the anti-masking group's founder, has repeatedly praised the anti-vaccination group on social media and during protests.

Sobolev also told CBC News that high-profile U.S. anti-vaccination advocate Sherri Tenpenny, an osteopath who wrote Saying No To Vaccines, is providing online leadership training to his group.

Tenpenny, along with other anti-vaccination advocates in the U.S. and Canada, have embraced the anti-masking cause and opposed COVID-19 lockdown measures.

As people have emerged from COVID-19 isolation in their homes, the city of Toronto has implemented mandatory masking policies for indoor spaces, including stores, where physical distancing is difficult. (Evan Mitsui/CBC)

Many Canadians who don't want to wear masks aren't opposed to vaccines, but the fact that anti-vaccination groups are involved in the relatively new anti-masking movement of concern to many health experts.

Despite well-established evidence that vaccines are safe and effective, anti-vaccination groups have become savvy at spreading misinformation that leads people to distrust medical guidance — which can have dire consequences during a pandemic.

'Harmful outcomes'

"It disturbs me when I see people acting on information that I'm quite sure is not only incorrect, but potentially misleading and potentially leading to harmful outcomes," said Dr. Matthew Oughton, an infectious disease specialist at McGill University.

As a practising physician at Montreal's Jewish General Hospital, Oughton has seen first-hand the toll COVID-19 takes. Close to 9,000 people — largely seniors and people with underlying medical conditions — have died in Canada from the virus.

WATCH | Masks now mandatory in much of England:

Face coverings are now required inside most enclosed public spaces in England. England is also offering most people a free flu vaccine to guard against overwhelming hospitals this flu season. 3:31

Although scientists are continuing to learn about the novel coronavirus, it appears that people with COVID-19 can be most infectious before they show any symptoms, Oughton said.

That's different from many other viruses, including the first version of SARS. It's a key reason why it's important for people to wear masks — even if they feel perfectly healthy — when physical distancing isn't possible to prevent transmission, medical experts say.

Mistrust of health authorities fuels misinformation

Mistrust of government and scientific authorities are key characteristics among both anti-vaccination and anti-masking advocates, Goldenberg said.

"When you don't trust the sort of basic infrastructure that's supposed to support public well being, you're going to come up with all kinds of tactics to try to resist it," she told CBC News.

Those tactics include the "downplaying of how bad the infectious disease is," Goldenberg said.

Mistrust of government and scientific authorities is a key characteristic among both anti-vaccination and anti-masking advocates, says Maya Goldenberg, a University of Guelph expert in vaccine hesitancy. (Submitted by University of Guelph)

Before COVID-19, anti-vaccination groups were making false claims that measles — a serious, vaccine-preventable disease — wasn't a major threat. A consequence of that misinformation was an increase in vaccine hesitancy, leading to a resurgence of measles cases in Canada, where it had been declared eliminated in the late 1990s.

Similarly, during the COVID-19 pandemic, anti-vaccination and anti-masking groups have claimed that coronavirus isn't any more dangerous than other diseases, such as the flu. This is part of an effort to falsely convince people that public health measures to stop the spread of infection — from the development of a vaccine to physical distancing and wearing a mask — are unnecessary.

Many social media posts from both anti-masking and anti-vaccination groups call the pandemic a conspiracy, citing beliefs that it's been manufactured to give governments the ability to monitor people through contact tracing and to promote a vaccine agenda. Both groups often target Bill Gates, whose foundation has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to support immunizations globally.

When asked if Hugs Over Masks opposes vaccination, Sobolev did not answer directly.

"The right for an individual to have the choice on any medical intervention set forth by the public health departments is especially important when there are undeniable and inherent risks associated with the intervention in question," he said in an emailed response. "Health Freedom is not something that should be even in question."

Doctors, patients baffled as anti-maskers print of 'exemption cards'

B.C. doctor heads to court to demand mandatory mask rules

The group actively defies public health guidance during rallies, where people are encouraged to bring their children, reject physical distancing and not wear masks, saying that they refuse to adopt the "new normal" of life during the pandemic. Anti-masking rallies in Toronto appear to attract anywhere from a couple of dozen to around 150 people.

Sobolev said his group consider COVID-19 a "scamdemic," arguing Canada's hospitals would have been filled to capacity with COVID-19 patients if it were real.

WATCH | Anti-maskers now making 'exemption cards' to skirt bylaw:

As the CBC's Lorenda Reddekopp explains, anti-mask groups in Toronto are now making their own cards to avoid wearing face coverings in public places. 1:51

When CBC News suggested that the success of the public health measures his group was protesting were a reason more people didn't become critically ill, Sobolev said he didn't trust the numbers. He said people should look at South Dakota, which didn't have a state-imposed lockdown.

The claim that South Dakota had the lowest coronavirus infection rate in the U.S. is not accurate, according to a recent Reuters fact-check, but misinformation about the state's infection rates continues to circulate on social media.

Lawsuit alleges vaccine conspiracy

Vaccine Choice Canada, along with several individual plaintiffs, filed a statement of claim at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice this month against public health and political leaders in several municipalities, as well the province of Ontario and the federal government, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam and the Queen.

The lawsuit claims COVID-19 public health measures, including lockdowns, physical distancing and mandatory masking are violations of constitutional rights. It also claims that the pandemic was unnecessarily declared to further "non-medical agendas," including to establish a "New (Economic) World Order" and a "massive and concentrated push for mandatory vaccines of every human on the planet earth with concurrent electronic surveillance."

WATCH | U.S. President Donald Trump reverses stance on masks and other pandemic policies:

In the same week that COVID-19 cases increased on average by more than 65,000 per day across the United States, President Donald Trump made some key reversals in White House pandemic policy, including guidance on wearing masks. 1:56

Canadian public health officials have never suggested that a coronavirus vaccine, when developed, would be mandatory.

The lawsuit also names the CBC, accusing it of "Stalinist censorship" by "knowingly refusing to cover/or publish the valid and sound criticism of the COVID measures."

It's not clear when — or whether — the lawsuit will proceed through the courts.

'Cherry-picking' data

Another commonly used tactic by both anti-masking and anti-vaccination organizations is "cherry-picking" research studies that appear to support their viewpoint, but are often outdated or taken out of context, said McGill University's Dr. Oughton.

For example, anti-masking groups often incorrectly claim that wearing a mask is harmful because it reduces the supply of oxygen and causes people to breathe toxins back into their own body.
That's misinformation with no basis in fact, Oughton said.

"Surgeons wear these kinds of procedural masks in the operating theatre for, sometimes, hours and hours at a time. The surgeons are not dropping [from lack of oxygen]. They simply aren't," he said.

Do masks reduce your oxygen levels? Your COVID-19 questions answered

Another piece of false information that anti-maskers have been circulating is the idea that wearing a mask can harm a child's immune system — a claim Sobolev made to CBC News during a telephone interview.

Those kinds of "alarmist stories" playing into people's fears about their children's health are another way anti-vaccine and anti-masking groups try to further their agendas, said Goldenberg, the vaccine hesitancy expert.

How close are we to a vaccine for COVID-19?

Unlike combating vaccine misinformation, where the science has been clear for years, public health experts trying to correct mask misinformation are dealing with some confusion: their recommendations changed over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Anti-masking groups have seized upon that inconsistency and frequently cite public health officials from before the mask guidance changed.

Emerging research, changing guidance

Public health experts say they understand the confusion and how it could foster doubt in the current advice. They emphasize that it's an example of how quickly they've been learning about a new virus.

Back in March when the pandemic was first declared, there wasn't much scientific evidence to demonstrate mask effectiveness in preventing COVID-19, public health experts say.

Physical distancing was also a new concept. Public health officials worried people would think using masks meant they didn't have to pay as much attention to staying two metres apart from others.
Since then, more studies have been done, said Dr. Lawrence Loh, medical officer of health for Peel Region, near Toronto.

"The science in respect to COVID-19 has evolved and so has the recommendation around masks," Loh said. Once scientists learned the virus could be spread by people with no symptoms through respiratory droplets, they began advising the general public to wear non-medical masks when physical distancing isn't possible, he said.

Many stores now have clear signage indicating that customers must wear masks before entering. Toronto Public Health says people do not have to provide proof of medical exemptions. If people don't want to wear masks in stores, the health agency says there are alternatives, such as curbside pickup. (Submitted by David Howitt)

There are legitimate medical issues — including some mental health or developmental conditions — that preclude some people from wearing masks, said Dr. Vinita Dubey, Toronto's associate medical officer of health.

City bylaws do not require people to provide proof of a medical exemption, Dubey said, but she hopes people will only claim an exemption if it's legitimate.

People who simply don't want to wear masks should pursue alternatives to going into stores, she said, such as curbside pickup.

As an emergency physician who regularly wears a mask at work, Dubey recognizes that masks take some getting used to and can feel uncomfortable at first, but she recommends people try different types if that's the case.

The data is still not clear on how much masks prevent infection for the wearer, public health experts said.

But that's why it's important for as many people as possible who can wear masks to do so when physical distancing isn't possible, Dubey said. The idea is that people protect others — especially those who are vulnerable to critical illness if they become infected — from their own germs given the possibility of asymptomatic transmission.

"I protect you with my mask; and you protect me with your mask."

How to make COVID-19 mask-wearing a habit

Like with hard-core anti-vaccination groups, people who are adamantly against masking "are a loud but typically smaller proportion of the population," Dubey said.

The key is to combat the misinformation they spread to members of the public who might be "mask-hesitant" — similar to people who are vaccine-hesitant — by providing clear, honest answers to their questions, experts said.

Some people have medical, mental health or communication issues that are legitimate reasons to be exempt from wearing a mask, says Dr. Vinita Dubey, associate medical officer of health for Toronto Public Health. She hopes people will only seek medical exemptions over masks if they truly need them. (Submitted by Keisha Mair/Toronto Public Health)

"It's those who are sitting on the fence who are actually rightly looking for information. We need to reach them and give them the information that they need at the right time," said Dubey.

"That's the group that we need to spend most of our energy on," she said, urging the public to ask health-care providers or public health authorities for information if they have questions.

It's important for medical professionals to be respectful when people ask those questions — including when they raise concerns based on misinformation, Goldenberg said.

"If there's one way to get people defensive, it is to disparage them and not to take them seriously."

Freedom Rally

In Response to Randy Hillier, MPP's
Petition to End The State of Emergency

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 23rd, 2020

[TORONTO] - Rain or shine, to preempt the unnecessary extension to the State of Emergency by the Ontario Government, that removes democratic powers from our representatives, there will be another peaceful gathering consisting of concerned citizens, families, and small business owners who reject the extension that has irreparably damaged our livelihoods, health, and economy.
The peaceful gathering will be held in front of the Ontario Legislature at Queen’s Park from 10 AM to 1 PM in support of Randy Hillier, MPP's (Lanark—Frontenac—Kingston) petition to End the State of Emergency.
This demonstration will give a voice to those suffering as a result of the Emergency Orders created without democratic oversight, which prevents businesses and healthcare from re-opening fully.
Media are encouraged to attend to cover the rally at any time with a possible visit by Randy Hillier, MPP after Question Period at approximately 11:30 AM.

Former Fredericton police chief named to N.S. shooting panel

Leanne Fitch was chief during 2018 shooting when 4 people, including two officers, were killed

Former Fredericton police Chief Leanne Fitch will serve on an independent panel into last April's mass killing in Nova Scotia.

Fitch served as chief during some trying times for the force, including in August 2018 when a gunman killed four people in a mass shooting, including two Fredericton police officers.

Fitch retired from the Fredericton Police Force in June of last year.

The Nova Scotia inquiry is supported by both the Nova Scotia and federal government and will look into the mass shooting that took place April 18-19.

Independent panel 'a slap in the face,' says daughter of N.S. shooting victim

A shooter killed 22 people, including one RCMP officer in a rampage that spanned several communities before being killed himself by police.

The report will be released next year and will try to determine the context in which the shootings took place and explore law enforcement's response to the incident.

While the report will be made public it is unclear if any of the panel's hearings will be open to the public.

The other members of the panel are former chief justice of Nova Scotia Michael MacDonald and Anne McLellan, the former minister of public safety and deputy prime minister in the Paul Martin government..

The enquiry announced today is a wise and reasonable response to calls for a public and independent enquiry. It will avoid the appearance of a sham trial looking for guilty parties
with seems to be the objective of those wishing to prolong this real life drama. The factual information will be available for everyone but no public retributions and hangings.

Bob Smith

Reply to @John McInerney: The facts deserve more than a "we'll try to do better next time" result. The grieving families have legitimate questions about what happened during the hours of the incident. The public has concerns about what occurred during that time. Sweeping it all behind closed doors with no indications anything new will be revealed makes this look like a whitewash in the end.

According to the RCMP operations manual, they don't have to give truthful answers to any questions unless in a court of law. This independent panel has now authority to compel a truthful response. This will be a coverup like Meyerthorpe and Moncton. It's a shame to drag a good person like Chief Fitch through the mud of a poor panel.

Sadly this review is not only a waste of time but a waste of dollars when either the Feds or Nova Scotia can afford it. But worse of all this does nothing, nada, zero For the victims families and friends or the community of Colchester Nova Scotia. It seems the RCMP hugely failed on this operation and both governments are that is ok. I hope the good people there keep on protesting until they get a full no facts hidden inquiry.

Independent panel 'a slap in the face,' says daughter of N.S. shooting victim

Families of Nova Scotia victims asked for public inquiry, but review announced instead

Emma Davie, Alex Cooke · CBC News · Posted: Jul 23, 2020 9:59 AM AT

Darcy Dobson and Nick Beaton, who lost loved ones in April's mass shootings in Nova Scotia, say they're upset by the decision to go with an independent review instead of a public inquiry. (CBC)

Some family members of the 22 victims of the Nova Scotia mass shooting say they're deeply disappointed by the announcement Thursday of an independent review into the tragedy.

Relatives have been calling for a public inquiry, but today the provincial and federal governments stopped short of that, instead announcing there will be an independent three-person panel led by the province's former top judge.

"I'm not really happy. I really feel that a full inquiry is necessary," said Charlene Bagley, who lost her father, Tom Bagley, in the shooting.

"We all deserve the truth and full transparency and I don't feel like we're going to get that."

The review means it is up to the panel to decide whether any hearings will be held in public. All documents and information collected as part of the review will also be kept confidential.

Bagley said she can't speak for the other families, but she said she wouldn't mind those aspects being made public if it means she gets the answers she's seeking.

"I don't want all the details [of] what happened to my father to be known," she said. "But … if it helps move forward and that we can learn from this, then I would be OK with it."

Tom Bagley died in the shooting. His daughter says she wants a full public inquiry into the tragedy. (Charlene Bagley/Facebook)

The panel's report, which is due next year and will be made public, will consider the causes, context and circumstances that led to the incident — including gender-based and intimate-partner violence and the gunman's access to firearms — as well as the police response and communications.

It will also address the steps taken to inform, support and engage victims, families and other people affected by the tragedy.

The panel will be chaired by former chief justice of Nova Scotia Michael MacDonald.

The other panel members are former deputy prime minister Anne McLellan, who is currently a senior adviser with the law firm Bennett Jones LLP, and Leanne Fitch, a former chief of the Fredericton Police Force.

All three panel members are from the Maritimes

22 people killed

On April 18 and 19, a lone gunman went on a 13-hour shooting rampage that began in the small community of Portapique and ended at a gas station in Enfield, 150 kilometres away. Twenty-two people were killed, and the gunman was shot dead by police.

On Wednesday, about 280 people marched to the RCMP detachment in Bible Hill, N.S., to call for an inquiry to be held, after months of waiting for answers.

Nick Beaton, whose wife, Kristen Beaton, was killed in the April massacre, said not getting answers these past few months has been 'hell.' He was one of almost 300 people who marched on Wednesday, calling for a public inquiry. (Andrew Vaughan/The Canadian Press)

Nick Beaton, whose wife, Kristen Beaton, was killed in the shooting along with their unborn child, said he's upset with the decision to go with a review instead of an inquiry.

"They say they're worried about our thoughts and feelings. This upsets us more than anything."
Beaton said he and the other families are "not done fighting" until they get the answers they've asked for.

Darcy Dobson, the daughter of victim Heather O'Brien, agreed.

"We're disappointed. It's a slap in the face, for sure," she said.

"Today, [Justice Minister] Mark Furey said in his release that he didn't want to hurt the families anymore, and what you're doing is hurting us by not giving us what we asked for."

From left, the three panelists are Leanne Fitch, Anne McLellan and Michael MacDonald. (The Canadian Press/CBC News)

In a news conference Thursday, Furey said the panel members were chosen because of their experience in fact-finding and independence, in-depth knowledge of public safety, policing and gender-based and intimate-partner violence, as well as their understanding of shared federal-provincial relations and responsibilities.

Furey has said on a number of occasions that while the province was committed to a review, it would not lead it.

On Thursday, he said they reviewed all options, including a public inquiry, but this process provided the "most timely opportunity" for the earliest responses and setting up a panel.

"We heard loud and clear that people wanted early changes," Furey said, noting that it can take years to set up an inquiry and that a review wouldn't take as long.

Families of N.S. mass killing victims push for public inquiry

Details on mass shooting inquiry to be released next week, N.S. justice minister says

In response to this explanation, Dobson said: "We never asked for quick. We asked for the truth."

The review process also does not include some of the powers granted in a public inquiry, such as information provided under oath, the ability to subpoena and binding recommendations.

Federal Public Safety Minister Bill Blair said both levels of government are "absolutely committed" to this review and its recommendations.

"This is the right approach and we believe we have the right people to do the work and they have the necessary authorities to get Nova Scotians the answers they deserve," Blair said.

Families briefed

Furey said he spoke to the families earlier this week and that he wanted to personally tell them about the review panel ahead of time.

"We must commit to caring for and thinking of them first," he said.

He said he heard from them and is aware that a public inquiry is the mechanism "that they would prefer." But, he said, after looking at all of the factors, the approach of the review and the strength of the panel gives them the authority to get families the answers they need.

Bagley, who lost her father, said the families were given the opportunity to ask questions about this during their briefing, but she said when she submitted her written question, it was reworded and not properly answered.

"I feel like if they can't be transparent even there, how am I to trust that they're going to be transparent when it comes to the real thing?" she said.

Beaton also said he wasn't satisfied with the meeting with Furey.

"Any question that we asked him, he said, 'I can't speak on behalf of the panel,' " Beaton said.

Furey and Blair said all agencies and organizations under their jurisdiction will participate fully in the review, including the RCMP, the Canada Firearms Program, Canada Border Services Agency, the Criminal Intelligence Service and the national Alert Ready Program.

The RCMP released a statement on Thursday afternoon saying it supports the independent review and "will co-operate fully," ensuring the panel has all "available information required."

The panel can also notify the ministers, as well as the public, if an institution or individual fails to co-operate within a reasonable time or claims they cannot due to things like solicitor-client privilege or concerns an ongoing police investigation could be compromised.

"We've empowered the panel to speak publicly at any time, whether it's over the course of their work, in accessing information or anyone interfering in the independence of that panel," Furey said.

Final report in August

The panel, however, has no power to challenge claims of privilege, and can only make note of them.

The panel will provide an interim report to the ministers by Feb. 28, 2021. The final report will be delivered by Aug. 31, 2021. The ministers will receive the reports first and then make them public.

Furey said the panel members are prepared to start work right away, but there are a few administrative matters to get through first, such as finding office space.

The cost of the review will be shared equally between the two levels of government, but there is no set budget yet.

Reaction from opposition parties

Nova Scotia's opposition parties are also calling for an inquiry instead of a review.

In a written statement, Tim Houston, leader of the Progressive Conservatives, described the review as "a complete and utter abdication of responsibility" and "cover your ass politics."

"Premier Stephen McNeil promised Nova Scotians that by waiting for months, the chosen mechanism would ensure change across the country. We now know that wasn't true," the statement said.

"Nova Scotians should be angry, not only because they have been cheated out of an inquiry that is essential to getting answers, but because their Premier and Prime Minister are attempting to fool them into thinking this direction is in their best interest. We need to know who will be held accountable for this short-sighted decision."

Also in a statement, NDP leader Gary Burrill said the decision to forgo an inquiry in favour of the review was "hurtful and disappointing."

"Across Nova Scotia, many organizations and experts, the public in general, and most significantly, the families, have properly called for a public inquiry into the worst mass shooting in our country's history," Burrill's statement said. "The government is mistaken in deciding to do something less."

WATCH | Disappointed by independent review, families of N.S. shooting victims demand public inquiry:

The federal and Nova Scotia governments have ordered a joint independent review of April's mass killing in Nova Scotia that left 22 people dead. It's come as a disappointment for the families who want to see a public inquiry instead. 4:35

An earlier version of this story said a public inquiry into the Portapique mass shootings would be announced today. In fact, it is a joint independent review that is being announced. This story has been corrected.
