3 new watchdogs appointed
Premier names child and youth advocate, official languages commissioner and ombudsman
The
Alward government has announced the appointment of three new people to
watchdog positions in the province, based on a new selection process.
The new child and youth advocate is Saint John lawyer Norm Bossé, who represented victims in the Kingsclear reformatory sex abuse case.
Katherine d'Entremont, a career civil servant, will be the new commissioner of official languages.
And the new ombudsman is Charles Murray, a civil servant and former political assistant to one-time Tory MP Elsie Wayne and to former PC cabinet minister Brad Green.
"I am confident that their experience and education will help them to carry out their respective duties effectively," said Premier David Alward.
He said Murray's appointment is not political.
"The individuals went through a very significant assessment and interviewing process."
Previously, the government picked people for the positions that report to the legislative assembly, in consultation with the opposition. The legislature would then approve the choice.
But now, a committee of bureaucrats, lawyers and academics review applications from people who are interested in the positions and presents qualified individuals to the premier.
He then consults with the leader of the opposition and recommendations are made through the legislative assembly.
The committee in this case included a provincial court judge, a member of the university community, the clerk of the legislature and the clerk of the executive council.
"We are pleased as a government that we created a new process to be more fair and transparent," said Alward.
Liberal Opposition Leader Brian Gallant was consulted on the three choices and signed off on all of them, including Murray.
"Charles Murray has a very impressive resume," said Gallant. "There was a good group of people that looked through a lot of the candidacies and he came through as the consensus choice."

Selection process overhauled
In March, the government overhauled the selection process for the arm's-length watchdog positions that offer a six-figure, deputy minister-level salary, for a seven-year term.Previously, the government picked people for the positions that report to the legislative assembly, in consultation with the opposition. The legislature would then approve the choice.
But now, a committee of bureaucrats, lawyers and academics review applications from people who are interested in the positions and presents qualified individuals to the premier.

Late former principal secretary to lieutenant-governor embezzled $700,000, RCMP say
Tim Richardson had control of the office of lieutenant-governor's finances

The former principal secretary to the New Brunswick lieutenant-governor is accused of embezzling about $700,000 over seven years.
And Tim Richardson will not stand trial for the alleged financial crimes because he has died, according to court documents.
An affidavit from RCMP Cost. Patrick Lemerise was submitted in support of a request to prevent Richardson from selling his house because it's tied to the crimes. It outlines the RCMP's case against him.
It says between Oct. 1, 2012, and June 30, 2019, Richardson committed theft, fraud and breach of trust.
Richardson had been the principal secretary for 20 years and was paid by the government of New Brunswick, the affidavit says.
The bank account from which he was making steady cash withdrawals contained money from the federal Department of Canadian Heritage, the provincial Department of Transportation and Infrastructure, revenue from Government House and donations from the public, Lemerise said.

The affidavit says $1 million was withdrawn in cash over seven years. The investigation found Richardson deposited $700,000 into his own bank account — in cash — over the same period. Some of the withdrawals and deposits happened on the same day, some of it days ahead of a vacation, and some coincided with mortgage payments.
The RCMP investigation into "financial irregularities" began in Aug. 2, 2019, the same day that the former lieutenant-governor, Jocelyne Roy Vienneau, died.
The affidavit says that in an interview with Roy Vienneau, she said "there was no discussion when she began her role about access to the bank account."
"When she asked more questions regarding the finances she was told not to worry about it."
'Sudden death'
The Fredericton Police Force confirmed they're investigating a sudden death on McKeen Street in Fredericton last Thursday but have not identified Richardson as the man who died. He lived on McKeen Street, according to court documents.In the Richardson court file, there's an application for a sealing order on this information. The information was released but some names were redacted.
In an affidavit submitted in support of the sealing order, Crown prosecutor Christopher Ryan said Richardson has died.
RCMP spokesperson Jullie Rogers-Marsh said Friday the investigation is continuing, and no charges have been laid.
Judy Wagner, private secretary to Lt.-Gov. Brenda Murphy, said the office will not be commenting because of the investigation.
'Control over all financial matters'
Lemerise, a financial crime investigator, says the provincial office of the comptroller first spoke with Richardson after hearing from the Canada Revenue Agency that the lieutenant-governor's office was behind on payroll remittance.The office of the comptroller monitored the account and found "no regular payments are being made," Lemerise said. That's when it began looking into the office of the lieutenant-governor's finances.
"Timothy Richardson maintained control over all financial matters," Lemerise said.
Richardson had sole access and signing authority for the office's bank account from October 2009 until July 2019, and he was the only person with a bank card and online access, Lemerise said.
In its investigation, the office of the comptroller found $336,766 in cash withdrawals from lieutenant-governor bank accounts between April 2017 and May 2019.
Richardson told the comptroller he did make that withdrawal, but it was for "work-related purposes," such as paying for expenses and work-related bills, the affidavit says. He then turned over a box of "unsorted" receipts dating back years, as well as his personal financial records.
After looking through those, the office of the comptroller still came up with $270,000 in unaccounted-for cash. The federal Department of Canadian Heritage agreed with the findings, Lemerise said.
The Heritage Department said it can't comment because there is an investigation.
The RCMP investigation was initially triggered by the Heritage Department and the comptroller's office, which acts as an internal auditor.
"The irregular financial activities appeared to involve only Richardson," Lemerise said.
Once the investigation began, the RCMP discovered the "offence period" dated back to "at least" 2012.
The affidavit says Richardson had access to a corporate credit card, provincial payment card and grocery card for use in case of incidental expenses. It said in an interview Richardson said he was aware of government policies. It was also made clear to him that he could not take trips or buy new clothes with government money.
"Richardson preached how important it was to follow the rules because the institution couldn't afford another mark after Lise Thibault," Lemerise said, referring to a former Quebec lieutenant-governor convicted of fraud and breach of trust.
Pressure of personal debts
The affidavit says Richardson had several overdue credit card statements, bills and a notice from a collection agency "indicating financial pressure."The investigation also found Richardson sent $360,000 to one person, whose identity was redacted. The affidavit says Richardson discussed bodybuilding and steroids. Investigators found vials "believed to possibly be" steroids in his Government House office. Police also believe they seized steroids from his house.
A forensic accountant found between eight and 16 per cent of Richardson's mortgage was paid with cash deposits. The largest source of his income, accounting for 53 per cent, came through cash deposits.
Fraudulent grant requests for non-existent employees
The affidavit says that over 20 years, Richardson had been getting funding from the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure for extra employees. For the last seven years, he requested funding for a facility and events assistant, residence and events assistant and heritage and events assistant.It started with a request for $75,000 in 2001, and ended with a request for $102,000 in 2020.
Lemerise said that over the last few years, Richardson had been submitting the same request letter. And as of 2010, only one person was a full-time employee paid from that funding.
"Even if [redacted] salary and that if all the tour guides were included it would still result in the grant application being overstated by $383,311 between 2012 and 2019," Lemerise said.
He said even after the forensic accounting of the lieutenant-governor office's bank account and Richardson's, "there remains over $300,000 in unaccounted for cash withdrawals," from the lieutenant-governor's office.

Obituary for Timothy Richardson
(July 17, 1964 - August 27, 2020)
It is with profound sadness that I announce the sudden and unexpected passing of my father on August 27, 2020.
He is survived by me, Ellen Richardson, Fredericton, his mother, Nancy (Grancy) Wolfe of St. Andrews, his sister, Elizabeth Matthews (Jim) and niece Kate Matthews of Mississauga, as well as an aunt, uncles, cousins and cherished friends.
I loved my father and I am blessed with many wonderful memories that are helping me with my unfathomable grief.
Among my most cherished memories of our times together were our long and frequent beachcombing excursions to our secret sand dollar beach where we collected hundreds of treasures. Together we transformed sand dollars, sea urchin shells, driftwood, beach glass, and more recently coral into creative pieces of artwork that we often gifted to family members and loved ones.
I also remember fondly our shopping trips with other family members – sometimes Bangor and frequently Marden’s – where he would ferret out hidden gems the rest of us would overlook. Those trips were so much more than shopping – they were one of many traditions that became the cement of the incredible bond we shared.
One of my favorite stories about Dad when he was little took place at Chicken Soup Corner, a legendary tale that is part of our family lore.
Many who knew my father will remember him as the unofficial Mayor of Fredericton because he seemed to know everyone in town. Others will remember his much-loved radio program, the Sunday File, from his days as an award-winning journalist.
Dad had endless energy and was always in search of more knowledge in many areas of interest. He was an art lover and antique expert who frequently attended Tim Issacs’s legendary auctions, where he had an eye for forlorn pieces of furniture that he saw as objects with endless potential. Furniture restoration became an enduring passion. He planned to realize a long-time dream of opening a storefront featuring reclaimed building materials and reinvented treasures created from his auction finds.
Dad cared about his community, serving on the Board of Directors of Transition House and the VON. He threw himself whole-heartedly into the Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival for many years, with the same drive and passion he poured into anything with which he was involved.
Dad excelled at so many things. He was a consummate story teller, both as a speaker and writer. He was a master in his own kitchen and a gardener extraordinaire. The site of the amazing flower garden he dedicated himself to this summer is but one example of the beauty he was always creating around him. It seemed like there was nothing he couldn’t do – except perhaps the time he decided to renovate a bathroom and discovered he wasn’t a carpenter!
He was predeceased by his best canine friend and loyal companion, Murphy, his black lab. After Murphy, he became part-time “father” to Lucie, Grancy’s golden retriever, who is also confused and missing my Dad.
I love you Dad and miss you beyond measure, but you will always be in my heart. I hope you are in a place of peace.
He is resting at York Funeral Home, yorkfuneralhome@yorkfh.com. By request, there will be no visitation or funeral. The family will have a private burial at a later date.
