Do vaccine mandates violate Canadians' charter rights?

Vaccine certification in limbo after Ford cancels update | COVID-19 in Ontario
EDMONTON -- A growing number of provinces have begun implementing vaccine mandates by requiring proof of vaccination to attend certain social and recreational events, or access to non-essential businesses.
With these announcements has come a rise in vaccine hesitant Canadians who oppose the idea of mandates, many of whom are concerned their rights and freedoms are being infringed upon.
It has also become a key wedge issue in the federal election.
THE CLAIM
One of the most commonly referenced arguments against vaccine mandates is that they violate the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, or, more specifically, Section 7 of the charter, which reads:
“Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.”
But, according to constitutional law experts, these claims are not exactly true. While vaccine mandates may have an impact on charter rights, whether it is an illegal infringement on those rights is unlikely when looking at specific case law.
ANALYSIS
Before we dive into the fine print, it’s important to note that both of our experts agree nothing is certain in the law. Certainly, if someone wanted to challenge the government over the charter, they could. But they say successfully arguing such a case is very unlikely.
As Cheryl Milne, executive director of the David Aspen Centre for Constitutional Rights at the University of Toronto explains, a charter argument may apply under Section 15, which discusses equality, for someone with a disability who cannot get vaccinated. Or under Section 2, which deals with freedom of religion and expression.
But Milne points out there are very few circumstances in which people cannot be vaccinated and have sound proof of that.
Vaccine mandates are not “forced vaccination”
Would-be claimants would face multiple hurdles to prove their case. The first would involve establishing an infringement of a protected interest in “life, liberty or security of the person.”
But, contrary to claims otherwise, vaccine mandates do not constitute forced vaccination.
“There are some people who think that vaccine passports and the use of the word ‘mandate’ means that we’re holding people down and forcing them to be vaccinated,” Milne told CTVNews.ca by phone this week.
“It’s just limiting the ability to participate in certain activities if they don’t have a vaccine. If, in fact, the government were forcing people to be vaccinated – like actually physically holding people down and giving them a vaccine – that would probably be a pretty clear charter breach.”
Mandates offer a choice: receive or decline the vaccine. Those who decline are instead presented with a different set of options.
“In the case of students, you can try to enroll in online classes, or you can take a term off. In the case of employees, you can try to seek accommodation or take a leave,” Samuel E. Trosow, associate professor in the faculty of law and faculty of information and media studies at Western University, told CTVNews.ca by phone.
“These may be inconvenient and unwanted options, but they are options.”
Even if a claimant were to make out that there has been a violation of the liberty interest or security of person interest, they would also have to prove that the infringement was under circumstances that violated principles of fundamental justice. In other words, the mandate is arbitrary, overly broad or grossly disproportionate.
Because vaccine mandates seek to protect the health and safety of the public, citing evidence that vaccines reduce the severity of illness and can reduce transmission, in cases where lockdowns, masking, social distancing and testing cannot, Trosow says it would be hard to argue any of those points.
“When you really look at the case law, and really understand what the specific requirements are, the argument falls apart,” he says.
‘Subject to reasonable limits’
Even if a claimant were to establish a violation of Section 7, the violation could be upheld under Section 1 of the charter.
“Section 1 of the charter says ‘all of the rights and freedoms in the charter are subject to such reasonable limits as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society,’” explained Milne.
“What that means is that there is this kind of proportional, reasonable approach that governments can actually limit people’s rights so long as they have a very good reason and can demonstrate why. A global pandemic might just be one of those reasons.
[But] they can only go so far as what is minimally impairing of the right. Stopping people from going to a restaurant might be considered minimally impairing when the consequences are further spread of a highly contagious virus.”
For example, in September 2020, Halifax resident Kimberly Taylor sued the Newfoundland and Labrador government after she was initially denied an exemption to the province's travel ban after her mother's death.
Taylor argued that the province overstepped its authority and violated her constitutional rights. But a Supreme Court judge ruled that the infringement was justified because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
CONCLUSION
Although vaccine mandates may have an impact on charter rights, whether it is an illegal infringement on those rights is unlikely.
"If someone says, ‘vaccine passports are a breach of charter rights’ – full stop, without the nuance – I would say it’s misleading,” said Milne.
“They would have to say they don’t think it would withstand the test of Section 1, it’s not reasonable. And I’m on the side that it’s probably reasonable, but people can differ about that.”
As Trosow points out, “while nothing is certain in the law – there are always perils of litigation – all of the good jurisprudence points to the conclusion that a Section 7 claim would not be actionable.
To make up spurious legal claims as an excuse [not to get vaccinated] I find very questionable.”

This will change the way some wealthy Canadians view the US.
Maybe they'll spend their money at home instead.

@Stan Cox I crossed paths with the Toronto lawyer John Richardson and
his lawyer pals in BC in 2015 when I filed a lawsuit against the
CROWN. They just laughed at me.
Methinks they should Google FATCA, Trump and David Amos N'esy Pas?

Anti-FATCA lawsuit plaintiff vows fight against FATCA ‘will go on’
By: Helen Burggraf | 04 Apr 2018
Anti-FATCA lawsuit plaintiff vows fight against FATCA ‘will go on’
One of the seven plaintiffs in a closely-watched lawsuit against the
US Treasury Department over the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act
that the US Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear has vowed that
the fight against FATCA will go on – in Canada, if nowhere else.
Stephen Kish, pictured left, a professor of Psychiatry and
Pharmacology at the University of Toronto, said on Tuesday that
another lawsuit, involving a Canadian organisation known as the
Alliance for the Defence of Canadian Sovereignty (ADCS), is continuing
against the Canadian government for its “turning over to the US
Internal Revenue Service” information on all those Canadian citizens
whom the US deems to be “US persons” and therefore subject to US tax.
Canada has been providing this information to the US tax authorities
since 2015, as part of an agreement it signed the previous year to
help the US to enforce FATCA – and in so doing avoid potentially
significant financial sanctions that the US would otherwise impose.
As reported, the ADCS’s lawsuit involves two Canadian women who happen
also to be considered to be American citizens by the US, who filed
suit in Canada’s Federal Court in 2014 against the Canadian government
for what they said was its role in enabling the US to come after them
by agreeing to enforce FATCA.
FATCA, which was signed into law in 2010 by President Obama and began
to come into force in 2013, obliges non-US financial institutions
around the world to report to the US Internal Revenue Service on any
accounts they have which are held by American citizens.
To do this, the US has obtained the agreement of foreign governments,
such as Canada’s, to collect the information and pass it on to the
IRS.
As a group Canadians who hold American citizenship, often as a result
of having been born there when their parents were temporarily south of
the border, have been among FATCA’s biggest critics, and even maintain
and contribute to a blog, the Isaac Brock Society, where issues of
concern to them are discussed and relevant news shared. (A gathering
of these “Brockers” is pictured above, at a 2013 anti-FATCA
demonstration in Ottawa in 2013.)
The Alliance for the Defence of Canadian Sovereignty – which Kish, a
Canadian citizen who renounced his American citizenship, chairs – is
funding the Canadian court case. According to the court documents, the
two plantiffs in the case are arguing that the defendants –
essentially the Canadian government, as represented for the purposes
of the lawsuit by the Canadian attorney general and National Revenue
minister – lack the right under Canadian law to provide their
information to the IRS, as they are Canadian citizens and the
information about them which the Canadian government is providing “is
not shown to be relevant for carrying out the provisions” of the laws
currently in force.
Although Canadian citizens, the two plaintiffs, Gwen Deegan and Kazia
Highton, are considered by the US to also be American citizens as well
– and thus having US tax obligations – because they were born there,
even though they left at a young age.
Kish says the expectation is that the case will reach Canada’s Federal
Court “early in 2019”.
Adds Kish: “My hope is that citizens of other countries (eg, England)
who are also regarded by the US, without their consent, to be American
citizens, will also sue their own countries for assisting in the
roundup and turnover of their information to a foreign government, and
the confiscation of their locally-made assets.
“Canada’s argument that it is okay to sacrifice the right of some of
its citizens to prevent a mean-spirited US financial sanction doesn’t
wash.”
As for the US Supreme Court’s decision on Monday not to hear the
matter of Mark Crawford et al v United States Department of the
Treasury, et al, Kish said he was, “as one of the plaintiffs…very
disappointed that our case never actually made it to trial”.
“But hopefully the Republicans Overseas organisation will be
successful in finding other plaintiffs who have suffered a type of
FATCA harm that will survive the Government’s “standing” argument,” he
added, referring to a call by the Republicans’ expat organisation for
seven individuals to be party to another lawsuit.
As reported, the case in which Kish had been involved had been brought
by a group of seven American expatriates as well as Kentucky Senator
Rand Paul. Their argument hinged on their contention that the 2010
FATCA legislation violated their constitutional rights.
However, they lost their case – as of Monday, when the US Supreme
Court declined to hear their challenge to a Sixth Circuit court
decision handed down last August – on grounds that they lacked the
standing to sue, and that the harms they claimed to have suffered as a
result of the law were not, in fact, directly caused by it.
In addition to the US Treasury, the other defendants in that case were
the IRS and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
The Supreme Court petition, Mark Crawford et al v United States
Department of the Treasury, et al, may be viewed on the Treasury’s
website by clicking here.

Clearly Jesse Brown and his buddy Mean Mikey Geist were yapping about
the TPP before you revealed the PCO's point of view about Harper's
false promise. More importantly to Mean Old Me both those very snobby
and very unethical Upper Canadian spin doctors well aware I knew the
very sneaky Julian Assange long BEFORE he and Birgitta Jonsdotir made
Wikileaks. Hell I have been dicing with the bast Geist for over ten
years since he stuck his nose in Byron Prior's matters (Another matter

Privy Council Office tracks party promises to prepare for government transition
Senior public servants log and analyze every election promise on a

Liberals, NDP decline PCO offer of confidential briefing on TPP trade deal
Offer to view trade deal just before election rejected as 'political ploy'
CBC News Posted: Oct 15, 2015 5:11 PM ET|
"Mulcair said Trade Minister Ed Fast broke a promise to make all
details of the accord public ahead of election day.
"Instead of openness and transparency, Canadians are learning details
through leaked information and the government's own self-serving
promotional efforts. That's not acceptable," Mulcair said.
The Privy Council Office is the department that provides non-partisan
support to the prime minister and cabinet. The Conservative campaign
told CBC News the government asked the PCO to offer the briefing to
the opposition parties.
But in a separate letter released Thursday, Liberal candidate John
McCallum accused Prime Minister Stephen Harper of continuing a "lack
of transparency" over the deal's details.
"Despite a commitment by the minister of international trade, Mr. Ed
Fast, to release the text of the agreement so all Canadians can judge
it on its merits before election day, media reports this week state
that the details will remain secret," McCallum wrote.
"It is troubling that with just four days remaining until election
day, you continue to refuse to release the text of the agreement for
Canadians to see."
McCallum noted that a previous briefing attended by party
representatives on Oct. 4 "provided no actual details beyond the
limited information already released publicly."
"It is simply not possible to conduct a meaningful, in-depth analysis
of the 1,500-plus page agreement in 90 minutes," he wrote.
I am included in briefing. I was only leader to participate in the 1st
#TPP briefing. #GPC #elxn42 @CanadianGreens @Politicolnews @PnPCBC
— @ElizabethMay
Conservative campaign spokesman Kory Teneycke told CBC News the
Liberals initially agreed to attend the Friday briefing, while the NDP
declined. Teneycke said the briefing was to be based on the chapter
summaries, since the final text does not exist yet.
A Liberal campaign spokesman referred CBC News to McCallum's letter,
but said any suggestion the party had accepted the offer of the
briefing was false."

Subject: Your various correspondence about abusive tax schemes - 2017-02631
To: "motomaniac333@gmail.com" <motomaniac333@gmail.com>
Mr. David Raymond Amos
motomaniac333@gmail.com
Dear Mr. Amos:
Thank you for your various correspondence about abusive tax schemes,
and for your understanding regarding the delay of this response.
This is an opportunity for me to address your concerns about the way
the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) deals with aggressive tax planning,
tax avoidance, and tax evasion by targeting individuals and groups
that promote schemes intended to avoid payment of tax. It is also an
opportunity for me to present the Government of Canada’s main
strategies for ensuring fairness for all taxpayers.
The CRA’s mission is to preserve the integrity of Canada’s tax system,
and it is taking concrete and effective action to deal with abusive
tax schemes. Through federal budget funding in 2016 and 2017, the
government has committed close to $1 billion in cracking down on tax
evasion and combatting tax avoidance at home and through the use of
offshore transactions. This additional funding is expected to generate
federal revenues of $2.6 billion over five years for Budget 2016, and
$2.5 billion over five years for Budget 2017.
More precisely, the CRA is cracking down on tax cheats by hiring more
auditors, maintaining its underground economy specialist teams,
increasing coverage of aggressive goods and service tax/harmonized
sales tax planning, increasing coverage of multinational corporations
and wealthy individuals, and taking targeted actions aimed at
promoters of abusive tax schemes.
On the offshore front, the CRA continues to develop tools to improve
its focus on high‑risk taxpayers. It is also considering changes to
its Voluntary Disclosures Program following the first set of program
recommendations received from an independent Offshore Compliance
Advisory Committee. In addition, the CRA is leading international
projects to address the base erosion and profit shifting initiative of
the G20 and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development, and is collaborating with treaty partners to address the
Panama Papers leaks.
These actions are evidence of the government’s commitment to
protecting tax fairness. The CRA has strengthened its intelligence and
technical capacities for the early detection of abusive tax
arrangements and deterrence of those who participate in them. To
ensure compliance, it has increased the number of actions aimed at
promoters who use illegal schemes. These measures include increased
audits of such promoters, improved information gathering, criminal
investigations where warranted, and better communication with
taxpayers.
To deter potential taxpayer involvement in these schemes, the CRA is
increasing notifications and warnings through its communications
products. It also seeks partnerships with tax preparers, accountants,
and community groups so that they can become informed observers who
can educate their clients.
The CRA will assess penalties against promoters and other
representatives who make false statements involving illegal tax
schemes. The promotion of tax schemes to defraud the government can
lead to criminal investigations, fingerprinting, criminal prosecution,
court fines, and jail time.
Between April 1, 2011, and March 31, 2016, the CRA’s criminal
investigations resulted in the conviction of 42 Canadian taxpayers for
tax evasion with links to money and assets held offshore. In total,
the $34 million in evaded taxes resulted in court fines of $12 million
and 734 months of jail time.
When deciding to pursue compliance actions through the courts, the CRA
consults the Department of Justice Canada to choose an appropriate
solution. Complex tax-related litigation is costly and time consuming,
and the outcome may be unsuccessful. All options to recover amounts
owed are considered.
More specifically, in relation to the KPMG Isle of Man tax avoidance
scheme, publicly available court records show that it is through the
CRA’s efforts that the scheme was discovered. The CRA identified many
of the participants and continues to actively pursue the matter. The
CRA has also identified at least 10 additional tax structures on the
Isle of Man, and is auditing taxpayers in relation to these
structures.
To ensure tax fairness, the CRA commissioned an independent review in
March 2016 to determine if it had acted appropriately concerning KPMG
and its clients. In her review, Ms. Kimberley Brooks, Associate
Professor and former Dean of the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie
University, examined the CRA’s operational processes and decisions in
relation to the KPMG offshore tax structure and its efforts to obtain
the names of all taxpayers participating in the scheme. Following this
review, the report, released on May 5, 2016, concluded that the CRA
had acted appropriately in its management of the KPMG Isle of Man
file. The report found that the series of compliance measures the CRA
took were in accordance with its policies and procedures. It was
concluded that the procedural actions taken on the KPMG file were
appropriate given the facts of this particular case and were
consistent with the treatment of taxpayers in similar situations. The
report concluded that actions by CRA employees were in accordance with
the CRA’s Code of Integrity and Professional Conduct. There was no
evidence of inappropriate interaction between KPMG and the CRA
employees involved in the case.
Under the CRA’s Code of Integrity and Professional Conduct, all CRA
employees are responsible for real, apparent, or potential conflicts
of interests between their current duties and any subsequent
employment outside of the CRA or the Public Service of Canada.
Consequences and corrective measures play an important role in
protecting the CRA’s integrity.
The CRA takes misconduct very seriously. The consequences of
misconduct depend on the gravity of the incident and its repercussions
on trust both within and outside of the CRA. Misconduct can result in
disciplinary measures up to dismissal.
All forms of tax evasion are illegal. The CRA manages the Informant
Leads Program, which handles leads received from the public regarding
cases of tax evasion across the country. This program, which
coordinates all the leads the CRA receives from informants, determines
whether there has been any non-compliance with tax law and ensures
that the information is examined and conveyed, if applicable, so that
compliance measures are taken. This program does not offer any reward
for tips received.
The new Offshore Tax Informant Program (OTIP) has also been put in
place. The OTIP offers financial compensation to individuals who
provide information related to major cases of offshore tax evasion
that lead to the collection of tax owing. As of December 31, 2016, the
OTIP had received 963 calls and 407 written submissions from possible
informants. Over 218 taxpayers are currently under audit based on
information the CRA received through the OTIP.
With a focus on the highest-risk sectors nationally and
internationally and an increased ability to gather information, the
CRA has the means to target taxpayers who try to hide their income.
For example, since January 2015, the CRA has been collecting
information on all international electronic funds transfers (EFTs) of
$10,000 or more ending or originating in Canada. It is also adopting a
proactive approach by focusing each year on four jurisdictions that
raise suspicion. For the Isle of Man, the CRA audited 3,000 EFTs
totalling $860 million over 12 months and involving approximately 800
taxpayers. Based on these audits, the CRA communicated with
approximately 350 individuals and 400 corporations and performed 60
audits.
In January 2017, I reaffirmed Canada’s important role as a leader for
tax authorities around the world in detecting the structures used for
aggressive tax planning and tax evasion. This is why Canada works
daily with the Joint International Tax Shelter Information Centre
(JITSIC), a network of tax administrations in over 35 countries. The
CRA participates in two expert groups within the JITSIC and leads the
working group on intermediaries and proponents. This ongoing
collaboration is a key component of the CRA’s work to develop strong
relationships with the international community, which will help it
refine the world-class tax system that benefits all Canadians.
The CRA is increasing its efforts and is seeing early signs of
success. Last year, the CRA recovered just under $13 billion as a
result of its audit activities on the domestic and offshore fronts.
Two-thirds of these recoveries are the result of its audit efforts
relating to large businesses and multinational companies.
But there is still much to do, and additional improvements and
investments are underway.
Tax cheats are having a harder and harder time hiding. Taxpayers who
choose to promote or participate in malicious and illegal tax
strategies must face the consequences of their actions. Canadians
expect nothing less. I invite you to read my most recent statement on
this matter at canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/
statement_from_
Thank you for taking the time to write. I hope the information I have
provided is helpful.
Sincerely,
The Honourable Diane Lebouthillier
Minister of National Revenue

Nader R. Hasan
Nader practises criminal, regulatory and constitutional law at the trial and appellate levels. He defends clients accused of criminal misconduct in a variety of cases, including white collar crime (fraud, money laundering, foreign corruption), violent offences (homicide, terrorism, sexual assault), drug offences, and professional misconduct. He has an expertise in digital privacy law and search and seizure law, and has appeared in many of the leading cases in this area.
Nader has been recognized by Best Lawyers magazine as one of Canada’s leading lawyers in five different categories. He has appeared in more than 20 cases at the Supreme Court of Canada, including as lead counsel to the successful appellants in Clyde River v. Petroleum Geo‑Services Inc., 2017 SCC 40, a landmark Indigenous rights decision. In 2020, Canadian Lawyer magazine named him one of Canada’s Top 25 Most Influential Lawyers.
Nader is a veteran Adjunct Professor at the University of Toronto, Faculty of Law, where he has taught the Law of Evidence and currently teaches a popular class on crime and punishment. He also serves on the Advisory Board of UofT’s David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights and is a past Constitutional Litigator- in-Residence at the Asper Centre (2020). Nader is a co-author of Search & Seizure (Emond Publishing, 2021), a co-author of Sentencing, 9th edition (LexisNexis, 2017), a co-author and co-editor of Digital Privacy: Criminal, Civil and Regulatory Litigation (LexisNexis, 2018), and author of numerous articles on criminal and constitutional law.
Nader brings a cross-border perspective to his practice. He previously practised with a leading litigation firm in New York, appearing in both New York State and U.S. federal courts. Today, he regularly advises Canadian citizens in relation to criminal and regulatory issues with a multi-jurisdictional dimension, and regularly advises Canadians detained abroad.
Nader acts regularly for clients seeking to vindicate their constitutional rights in high-profile cases. He has acted for the wrongfully convicted and asylum seekers. He acts for Indigenous groups and environmental NGOs in environmental and constitutional cases. He also acts for civil liberties groups, including the Criminal Lawyers’ Association, the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association, and the David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights. He sits on the board of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.
Nader is a graduate of Harvard University (B.A.), the University of Cambridge (M.Phil), and the University of Toronto, Faculty of Law (J.D.). Upon graduation from law school, Nader clerked for the Honourable Marshall Rothstein of the Supreme Court of Canada.

Tom Quiggin’s Statement of Defence in Islamic Relief Canada Defamation Lawsuit
April 8, 2019
|
Tom Quiggin
Court-qualified terrorist expert, Tom Quiggin, and six other persons/
entities, including C3RF’s own co-founding member, Raheel Raza, have
been named as “the defendants” in a defamation suit levelled by the
charitable organization, Islamic Relief Canada (IRC). The risk faced
by the defendants is in the order of millions of dollars as IRC seeks
compensation for damages to its good name and ongoing financial
prospects. All this due to an RCMP complaint submitted by Tom
Quiggin. This complaint alleges that terrorist organizations abroad
are being funded by taxpayer dollars funnelled through several
Government of Canada agencies and personalities and IRC. It has been
registered by the RCMP under File # 18-004212.
The defamation case is now with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice
for dispensation. There can be little doubt that a docket dealing
with the potential funding of terrorist operations by our own federal
government through a Canadian charity is in the public interest.
This, plus the fact that submitted court documents are in the public
realm, makes C3RF think its members may wish to be apprised of related
proceedings. Accordingly, the defendant’s “Statement of Defence” is
archived here for your information and consideration. C3RF will
endeavor to keep its members apprised of further developments in this
case as they arise.

Statement of Defence.

Federal government reaches settlement with 3 Canadian men tortured in
Syria and Egypt
Ralph Goodale and Chrystia Freeland apologize for Canada's role in
their detention and mistreatment
Nazim Baksh, Terence McKenna · CBC News · Posted: Mar 17, 2017 5:15 PM ET
"It comes 15 years and two federal inquiries after the detention and
torture of the three men.
"Our clients are gratified to have received an apology from the
highest level of the Canadian government," Phil Tunley, a lawyer
representing the three men, told CBC News in an emailed statement.
"They and their families are pleased that their long legal ordeal is
over."
Ten years ago, they each filed $100-million lawsuits against the
government but temporarily halted their legal proceedings to allow
former Supreme Court justice Frank Iacobucci to conduct an internal
inquiry. In his 2008 report, Iacobucci concluded that Canadian
officials were indirectly responsible for their torture.
In 2009, the House of Commons called on the government to provide
compensation and a formal apology to Almalki, Elmaati and Nureddin and
to do everything necessary to correct misinformation about them that
may exist in records administered by national security agencies in
Canada or abroad.
The three men have been waiting until now."

Bill C-51 Would Jeopardize the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
Friday, April 17, 2015
By Peter Jacobsen and Andrew MacDonald
On April 17, 1982, the rights and freedoms essential to a "free and
democratic society" were entrenched into Canada's Constitution by the
proclamation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms by Queen Elizabeth
II, at a ceremony on Parliament Hill. Much of the time, most of us are
able to take these guarantees for granted -- we are fortunate to be
able to do so.
But Bill C-51, dubbed the Anti-Terrorism Act, 2015, should cause
Canadians deep concern. Its provisions, if passed into law, would
jeopardize many of our most basic rights and liberties and would only
serve to undermine the health of our democracy. On the 33rd
anniversary of the signing of the Charter, we should demand that
Parliament scrap Bill C-51 altogether.
The guarantees of the Charter are not absolute. The Charter itself is
clear on this point. However, any limits imposed by Parliament on our
basic rights and fundamental freedoms must be "reasonable"; they must
not be overly broad; and they must be "demonstrably justified in a
free and democratic society."

Liberals back CSIS in torture lawsuit
The Liberal government is continuing the legal fight against
compensation for three Canadians tortured overseas — despite
previously voting in favour of their cause.
"Lawyers for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government are
seeking retroactive blanket anonymity for spies and their sources and
have filed an appeal in a civil lawsuit launched by the three men with
that goal in mind. A Conservative bill last year, C-44, which enacted
source protection, was not made retroactive.
Put together, the two moves have stunned a team of lawyers at
Toronto’s Stockwoods firm that took up the cause of Abdullah Almalki,
Muayyed Nureddin and Ahmad El Maati, as well as others who closely
follow developments in security law.
“It’s a continuation of this incredibly litigious no-holds-barred
scorched-earth defence strategy which we’ve been experiencing for 10
years under the Harper government,” said lawyer Phil Tunley, who is
leading the team suing the federal government on behalf of the men.
“I fear that in this case, the current government is at risk of simply
letting its litigation team roll along paths ordained by the prior
government, without asking whether the interests of justice are served
by devoting still more taxpayers’ money to fighting meritorious
claims,” said University of Ottawa law professor Craig Forcese. He and
the University of Toronto’s Kent Roach are authors of False Security:
The Radicalization of Canadian Anti-Terrorism, an authoritative
analysis of the current slate of security laws in Canada."

>>>
>>> 81. The Plaintiff states that matters of harassment that the police

>>> 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

>>> 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

>>> 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

>>> 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

'Let's be daring and risk-taking': CBC president Catherine Tait on her
vision for the public broadcaster
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has a new boss at the helm.
Catherine Tait is the new president and CEO of CBC/Radio-Canada and
the first woman to lead the public broadcaster in the history of the
CBC.
Tait brings more than 30 years of experience in the film and
television world, with organizations like Telefilm Canada, Salter
Street Films in Nova Scotia, and most recently, she was founder and
president of a Brooklyn-based company called Duopoly, which
specializes in digital, television and film production.
In a conversation withq's Tom Power, Tait discusses her vision for the
public broadcaster and shares how her experience in the arts plays a
role in that. "I think my creative sensibility will hopefully inspire
the people who work here and bring, if dare I say, some new energy,"
she says. "Let's be daring and risk-taking."
Listen to the full conversation above.

Yea Right Tell me another on Lady How abut starting by acting
ethically for a change?
Checkout the comment section of a CBC article during the last election
before you doubt my sincerity.
Then ask the moderators CBC hired why they killed my ID last Xmass and
block and barr me from commenting all the time while I watch them
delete and or edit entire threads and even delete entire comment
sections. There must be a lot of people upset with CNC not just me
N'esy Pas?

>> I have not thought about our conversation and was curious about a few

>>
>> I was glad to receive your call and impressed by the fact that you

>> was a rare statement to me. However I was curious why you only

>> they didn't I am not surprised because I have some other rather

>> forward this email to anyone else until after I return to the USA and
>> nothing has been resolved between BCE and I and I am compelled to name
>> it in my complaint. I would find it very hard to believe that Mr,
>> Pozen does not know everything he needs to know about me right now.
>>
>> I had also called a lawyer, Steven Skurka who had a week long little
>> special on CTV . I had tried to inform him that I knew my rights his

>> not a rude character. I found it too funny to be treated that way and
>> I had resolved to serve him this stuff byway of the local ATV Station
>> that had presented his smiling talking head to me. That is why I was
>> telling you that you could get this stuff from the local ATV station.
>> I found it quite strange that you did not rely on them to send it on
>> to you. Thus I must make an extra copy to comply with your request.
>>
>> I know the date stamp on the forwarded email is incorrect but that is
>> because my old laptop goes to the first year in it when I boot up and
>> sometimes I am too busy or tired to bother changing it. However MSN
>> tracks it with the true date. Brad Smith and I have a bone to pick as

>> immediatlely offer you a better job than the one you have now. Please
>> study the material I will provide you closely and ask me any thing you
>> wish.
>>
>> I will do as I promised and send the material you requested as soon as
>> I can put it all together. Right now I am on the move and far away
>> from my printer. Is the following your correct address? Perhaps you
>> should consider sending someone to the my meeting with the Police
>> Commission in Fredericton next week in order to hear me speak of these
>> matters to law enforcement before I return to the USA. Once I do
>> return there I will serve the Mr. Pozen the material as promised and
>> call him to testify in my pending trial. The following emails should
>> explain some of my concerns to you. My wife will be in Canada next
>> week as well to pick up our kids. I will allow you to speak to her if
>> you wish. She has had a nervous breakdown over the legal crap and I do
>> have her Durable Power of Attorney pursuant to M.G.L. 201 B. Mr. Pozen
