MG: Still to come, elections are about each individual ballot cast, this time in particular. We'll hear from some of the voters about what the election meant to them. And also take a bigger look at what the results mean for this country. But first, how some of the winners are feeling the morning after.

Hi, I'm Nariman Ansari and I live in Richmond Hill, Ontario. It is exciting to see the Justin Trudeau is still going to be the face of Canada internationally. I feel like that is important.
MG: We'll be hearing from voters across the country this morning. Nariman Ansari, who we just heard from, emigrated to Canada from Pakistan nine years ago.

It feels like the Liberals and NDP are more open to diversity. And Liberals have shown in their previous governments that it matters of women and minorities have been part of the cabinets. And I'm also glad, actually, that it's kind of a mixed bag because there does have enough of a space there to speak up as well and then push the everybody checks on each other, which is, I think, actually a good thing, you know, with the way how polarised the world is right now, it it feels like that's OK. It kind of makes gives us some faith in the system.
MG: One of the people who will have to keep building people's faith in that system is Mark Holland, liberal incumbent in the riding of Ajax in Ontario, was re-elected last night, joins us now. Mark Holland, good morning.
MARK HOLLAND: Good morning, Matt. How are you? Well, congratulations. Thank you so much. I appreciate that
MG: you were elected. Your party stays in power. But as we've been saying, parliament is pretty close to what it looked like before the election. Was this election worth it?
MARK HOLLAND: Well, every election is worth it, every election is an opportunity for Canadians to have a say on the kind of country they want. And, you know, the reality is this is going to be my fifth minority government and everyone is, you know, have been quite short in the past. My first one was actually only 18 months. But I think this one was particularly important. Look, we've all gone through something exceptionally difficult in the pandemic. This is really the largest crisis the country has faced in in one generation, maybe more than that. And there was an opportunity for Canadians to have a say on how they wanted to move forward as a country. I think that's exceptionally important. You know, covid-19 didn't exist as an issue. When we go back to 2019, it was something that wasn't on any of our minds. So I think it was exceptionally important to connect with folks and make sure that this is where they want to go, that they want to keep moving forward.
MG: Your party was looking for a majority. You are returned with a minority. What some people have said in some ways is a lukewarm endorsement for the party itself. And the message we heard this from outgoing MP Catherine McKenna seems to be one of humility. How will your government move forward in that frame of mind and govern with with a sense of humility, given what the country has said back to you?
MARK HOLLAND: Yeah, absolutely. It is absolutely essential that we reach across the aisle, that we continue working with other parties, that we find ways to compromise. I hope that everybody comes in that spirit. I think the message from Canadians was clear that, you know, towards the end, the brinksmanship, the things that were happening in parliament to try to push a political advantage is not what Canadians want. They want us to continue moving forward with with the pandemic, getting this done, moving forward to get us back to a sense of normality and to move forward on the big issues of the day. So, you know, in the last term as whip, you know, you spent a lot of time trying to get to work. I think together, I think have worked exceptionally well through the beginning of the pandemic. And then it was the last while it became a lot of fishing expeditions, a lot of time spent grinding partisan actions. And I I don't think that's what folks want to see. So I think all of us have to put that aside and really focus here on on on moving forward.
MG: How are you going to represent this entire country? I mean, when you take a look at the map, it's blue and orange in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, you know, many parts of British Columbia as well. You take a look at what's not there and there's not a lot of red further west. So how will this party how will this government truly represent this country?
MARK HOLLAND: Well, you know, We've elected MPs in all parts of the country. And more than that, we have a caucus and a team that is 100 per cent dedicated to putting the needs of Canadians first in everything that we do and and to be closely connected to what the country needs and is feeling and thinking.
MG: Can you do that, given the regional breakdowns and concerns that that people, again, particularly in the Western and the prairies make feel shut out because they don't see themselves represented in the governing party?
MARK HOLLAND: Sure, but I think the the key thing when you govern is is to demonstrate not only in your words, but in your actions, the understanding of the issues that are important to different regions of the country. You know, you have to govern for all Canadians, including the seats that you don't represent. And I feel that responsibility, you know, in my riding to represent the views of constituents that I may not even necessarily agree with, that the objective of governing is representation and to make sure that the whole country feels represented. That doesn't mean you always agree, but you have to ensure that the viewpoints and the perspectives of others are reflected in your thinking and that you're making an earnest attempt towards compromise and towards bringing folks together. And I think the best of the Liberal Party has been when we've been able to do that, when we've been able to define that middle ground, to pull people together, to find ways to bring the closer, bring the country more united and more together than it has been in the past. And that's our objective. Look, these are very divisive times in many parts of the world. And I think Canadians rightfully have a lot of pride that our differences are there for sure. But they're not as big and they're not as extreme as they are in other places. And it's our job to lessen those differences and find more ways to come together. And that means, you know, perhaps everybody's a little bit disappointed that at the end we wind up with policies in the country that is more united and is appropriately reflective of the population that it represents.
MG: A long night for you, I'm sure. I appreciate you taking time to speak with us this morning. Mark Holland, thank you.
MARK HOLLAND: Thank you very much. Appreciate it.
MG: Mark Holland, re-elected for the liberals in Ajax's Ontario

Sean Clements small pack guy. I think Mr. O'Toole did a pretty good job. Hopefully they stay in the centre. Hopefully he stays in hard to beat when somebody says ten dollars a day day care. I voted for the Liberals back when he promised veterans to bring back the old pension system. But there was a lot of tricky words turned out to be very misleading. Mr. O'Toole, being a veteran, I decided to vote for him. And because of his integrity, I truly feel that Mr. O'Toole was making promises that he planned on keeping. Well, I find Mr. O'Toole tried to bring his party to the middle. If they keep on this path, they'll definitely be back in power.
MG: Conservatives may not be back in power nationally, but in Alberta, conservatives once again took most of the seats, including Steffanie Kusie, who was re-elected last night in Calgary, Midnapore Stephanie QC. Good morning to you.
STEPHANIE KUSIE: Good morning. Thank you so much for having me here today. Congratulations. Oh, thanks. It's always a great feeling to win. Appreciate it.
MG: Sean Clemens just made an interesting few points there. One is that he hopes your party will stay in the centre. How important was that move to the centre for you.
STEPHANIE KUSIE: Yeah, well, I mean, this was something I certainly anticipated that Alan would do over the last year working towards the election, and I think that he had a fantastic election. I think he exceeded expectations with excellent policy announcements every single day. I mean, look, he won the popular vote. He maintains more or less the seat count. And I think that Canadians liked what they saw of Aaron O'Toole as they got to know him better and better. What sort of contrary to our last speaker, I think that this was a of an election run by Justin Trudeau, called by Justin Trudeau for the objective of the vanity project of winning a majority. He was not successful and he did it contrary to what Mr. [unintelligible] said, using fear and division. And the liberals just kept throwing thing after thing until something stuck. And it just tells me that, yes, I believe Mr. O'Toole was moving in the right direction, moving in the right direction towards the centre. I even heard that in my own writing. I was actually very shocked to hear from on the doorsteps. Some constituents say, you know what, I voted liberal previously, but Mr. O'Toole has made me consider voting conservative for the first time. And that's something I wouldn't have expected to hear in Calgary course. So I want to he just needs more time for Canadians to get to know him that the we're definitely moving in the right direction.
MG: You say he exceed the expectations. Why was there an Auteuil unable to defeat Justin Trudeau, do you think?
STEPHANIE KUSIE: Yeah, as I said, I think Canadians need more time to get to know him better and as well, I feel that, you know, this was as far as the PR residence indicated, this was a an an election where Justin Trudeau would literally say anything to get elected, including the ten dollars that it just falls in line with all the other promises people made.
MG: Some people made similar accusations of Aaron O'Toole that that his positions on many issues changed, not even over the course of the campaign, but over the course of weeks in the campaign.
STEPHANIE KUSIE: Yeah, I mean, he never had the opportunity to evolve as of yet to to have a platform to which he can do that to for Canadians. Justin Trudeau has proven time and time again, be it through climate promises, be it through democratic reform processes, that he is not going to do what he says he is going to do where it's. Well, I believe that Iran is really moving the party in the direction that it needs to go and that, you know, for the most part, I believe he really has been consistent in terms of his policy compared to, you know, a year ago. So I feel Erin is moving in the right direction. Canadians just need more time to get to know Mr. Trudeau and Justin Trudeau attempted to get his majority to achieve a vanity project. And he wasn't successful.
MG: The campaign's over. We just have a minute or so left. But I mean, the message that seems to be coming from voters is figure out some way to work together. This is a minority parliament and it doesn't seem like any leader came out of this election covered in glory. So is there room for you and your party to work with the liberals?
STEPHANIE KUSIE: Well, I mean, I think this is where Canadians are at today, at 600 million dollars later, we have almost the exact same result as we did two years ago. And I think in a lot of ways, Canada is more divided and in a bit of a stalemate. And it's absolutely as a result of the prime minister and his divisive politics over the last six years, which culminated in the selfish election that he called where he failed in achieving a majority. So I think there is I think there's a lot of reflection to be done by both Canadians in terms of what the future holds and as well parliamentarians as we go back to the House of Commons, because certainly what Justin Trudeau has created and built in the last six years is not an environment of unity or positivity for Canada, as we in the House of Commons are the ones who are left to deal with that.
MG: Stephanie Kusie, we'll leave it there. It's good to speak with you this morning. Thank you very much.
STEPHANIE KUSIE: Thank you, Matt. Have a great day.
MG: And you conservative candidate Stephanie Cusi re-elected in the writing of Calgary Midnapore.

My name is Boston Lanfredi. I am a student at the University of Victoria. I'm Metis and I voted for the NDP when the federal parties are dealing with indigenous issues. It doesn't feel genuine. It doesn't feel surprising to me that after Justin Trudeau called the election is when [unintelliglbe], like 40, got clean drinking water. I think it's all sort of a show in order to kind of be able to pat themselves on the back and say, look at us and look at how good we've done with reconciliation. Even the party that I voted for, I feel like all parties have that same attitude. When they go back, they need to actually listen to indigenous people and put their focus on making the change rather than making it seem like they're making a change.
MG: As expected, the conservatives held on to their stronghold in Alberta, but the NDP did pick up at least one more seat in the province and that will give Heather McPherson some company. She was re-elected for the NDP in Edmonton Strathcona. She's on the line now. And the McPherson, good morning to you.
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Good morning.
MG: I mean, congratulations.
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Thank you.
MG: We just heard that comment there. I mean, cynicism is a strong word, but there are a lot of people who wonder about promises made and whether about promises actually being delivered on. When you hear that, given the fact that this is a minority parliament, again, reflecting the government and the result of twenty nineteen, what goes through your mind as you head back to Ottawa?
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Yeah, you know, it makes me it makes me upset. It bothers me. It bothers me that Canadians think that they're their politicians are not are not going to do what they say. You know, that there is this feeling in Canada that the politicians are in it for themselves, not for Canadians. I mean, that's that's not why I'm in it. I'm in it to have to fight for Albertans. I'm in it to fight for my constituents. But it does make me. Don't make me take pause and feel sad. You know, we have a we have a political system in this country where young people and and folks across the country, you know, aren't confident that their government is in it for their best interests.
MG: And NDP tried to make the case that it was the party to tackle that and yet didn't significantly change its seat count. Why do you think that your party has not hit a ceiling but wasn't able to capitalise on that?
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Well, we have such a great leader and we saw throughout the campaign that Canadians, you know, saw the the positivity and the energy and the optimism that they brought to this race. And and, you know, in Alberta, we can say we we doubled our seats. And I know that went from one to two, but it's still very, very exciting. And we did see the seat numbers or the vote numbers go up. And so that is exciting. And, you know, I think that that frankly, a lot of this comes down to scare tactics that we heard throughout the campaign that if you don't know the scary version of if you don't vote for one guy, you'll get the other guy. I'm a new Democrat. So, of course, I always feel like they're not all that different, those two guys. But that's a that's a whole nother conversation, I guess, for for an election that inevitably will be around the corner, I suspect. But I also think this was a this was a scary election for a lot of folks. And I'll be interested to see what the voter turnout looked like. I'll be interested in seeing whether or not students got out to vote, considering we didn't have polls on campuses. And some of those some of those questions will be interesting in the days ahead.
MG: What do you think the message was? I mean, when you were knocking on doors, what did voters tell you about the message they wanted to send to Ottawa?
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Well, you know, the overarching message I think, that all parliamentarians should take away from this is that Canadians want us to work together. Canadians want us to get back to work and start doing what needs to be done to recover from COVID-19. You know, in Alberta, our economy wasn't looking great before the the pandemic. It certainly hasn't helped to be in a lockdown for 19 months. You know, in Alberta, of course, our health care system is is a top priority. I heard a lot on the doorsteps about how Jason Kenney has failed Albertans and how, you know, our free fall of our health care system is is terrifying. So so that's one of my big priorities as they head back to Ottawa, is to make sure that our eyes to use don't collapse, make sure that Albertans are protected.
MG: We just have a few seconds left. Everybody's talking about working together. Is it more difficult than it seems? And is something like that in a polarised environment? Is that truly possible?
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Absolutely. It's really possible. I mean, we were doing it before we did it during during the pandemic. You know, the the the role of parliamentarians is to work together. I believe that this parliament was working. I believe that there was no reason for this election. And I think Canadians said that loud and clearly that there wasn't because they said back almost the exact same thing to Ottawa. So, yeah, absolutely. It's possible. You know, for a long time, I was the only so good to say that I was the only new Democrat in Alberta. So, of course, I have to be pretty good at working with other with other folks, though. So I think absolutely Canadians expect us to go back to Ottawa, get back to work, work together. You know, the NDP have an important role to make sure that this government follows through on all the promises they made. You know, by the end, we're even hearing electoral reform was back on the table from Mr. Mr. Trudeau. So we'll just keep pushing to make sure that child care gets fixed, make sure our health care system is fixed, make sure the wealthy are paying their fair share. But that's our job and we'll do it with whoever whoever is willing to work with us.
MG: Heather McPherson, good to speak with you. Thank you.
HEATHER MCPHERSON: Thanks so much. Have a great day.
MG: Thank you. Heather McPherson, re-elected for the NDP in Edmonton, Strathcona. The Green Party lost the seat nationally. Now there will be two MPs. Mike Morris is one of them, newly elected for the writing of Kitchener Centre in Ontario. Mike Morrice, good morning to you. I'm holding my congratulations.
MIKE MORRICE: Thank you so much.
MG: Big night last night. How are you feeling? The morning after a while?
MIKE MORRICE: Only slept for about two hours or so. So a mix of exhausted and also just really humbled to have the opportunity to be a voice for my community.
MG: What was the pitch you made at the door?
MIKE MORRICE: Well, if I'm honest with you, but I spent a whole lot more time listening than speaking, I think that's what democracy is supposed to be about, is actually listening to the concerns of my neighbours for, you know, dating back to I ran in twenty nineteen and came in second then and again with hundreds of friends, went back to nearly every single door in the riding street after street to say, you know what's important to you. And I found there's just so much common ground and so many people in my community who actually agree with exactly what you've been saying. They don't care what party someone is with. They just want to see their representatives finding a way to figure it out and work together when it comes to the shared challenges from, you know, the unaffordability of housing to gaps in mental health supports the climate crisis. Of course, these are the kinds of things I heard time and time again, along with this just this interest in the deep partisanship and a real, real thirst for for folks to find a way to just put that all aside and work together to get things done.
MG: You picked up your seat, but this was not a good night, I think it's fair to say, for the Green Party. The leader came in fourth despite the fact that there's a climate emergency, this party failed to increase its support. What went wrong for the Green Party?
MIKE MORRICE: Well, I'll leave that for folks like yourself not to analyse over the days and weeks to come.
MG: I ask you questions. I mean, you would know, OK, because you're in the party and now you have a seat. So what do you think? I mean, give us a sense as to where did things go sideways?
MIKE MORRICE: Well, again, for my part, across my community here in Kitchener, we just saw a huge boost, the number of people who appreciate for me, again, one of the main reasons why I'm running with the Greens and why I'm proud to now be elected as a green is this focus on on working together and turning down the politics. You know, some ninety nine point five percent of the votes in the House of Commons are all along party lines. And so I think that was the word I got back from folks in my community was a real excitement for a focus on the priorities as opposed to the partisanship for and I heard it from some of the other guests. I heard it from Mark, I believe, earlier as well. The sense of this is an opportunity to just turn that partisanship down and instead focus on what we all have in common ... on these shared priorities across the country. And I look at someone like Elizabeth as an example of someone who has been re-elected so many times and received accolades from other parliamentarians for that focus, same as, you know, like Mike Schriner in Guelph, just down Highway 7 from me here, as someone else that, you know, is just wanting to stay positive, to be respectful of their colleagues and knowing that by being more respectful is going to give us a better chance of actually making progress on the things that our neighbours care about most.
MG: Does that need to be extended to your own party? I mean, your leadership, your leader was essentially under fire consistently and even before the campaign started. Does part of you wonder what what could have been without that internal turmoil?
MIKE MORRICE: Oh, absolutely. It was a distraction and a disappointment that I've spoken about quite a bit over the last number of months that, yeah, it wasn't wasn't helpful. And I'm encouraged at least, you know, there's some new folks on the federal council, a more diverse group, and I think is more ready to centre anti-racism in their efforts. And, you know, that that group was you know, their role started in the middle of August before the election was called. And so I am optimistic that that will see more from whether it's the Greens and then others across the country as well. Just, you know, turning down again the politics and any divisiveness and focussing on what I'm hearing from my neighbours most, which is a real interest in saying, you know what, the challenges that I heard about in 2019 only got worse through the pandemic. You know, we can talk about long term care, house prices going up 35 percent. These are the things that I want to be a voice for my neighbours on to to really advocate respectfully to make progress on those.
MG: Just a few seconds left. Do you believe that Annamie Paul should stick around as the leader of your party?
MIKE MORRICE: Yeah. Again, I really appreciate the Annamie's support for us here. She was here, you know, online in person. She came to Kitchner Centre to to support our efforts here. And and so I just appreciate how much she did to really serve candidates and campaigns like ours here to support us. I appreciate her leadership.
MG: Should she stay as leader?
MIKE MORRICE: I'm happy to have her as the leader of the party. I'll leave her and others and commentators and all the rest to to continue that kind of conversation for my part. My opinion, I think she she's a wonderful leader. And again, I really appreciate her support of us over the past number of months.
MG: Congratulations again. And it's great to talk to you, Mike. Thank you.
MIKE MORRICE: Thank you so much, Matt.
MG: My class, newly elected member of parliament for the Green Party in Kitchener, Ontario. Your regional update is next. And then we'll take a look at the big picture. What does this country look like the day after an election? We'll find out coming up on The Current.
Incoming Green MP Mike Morrice respects Annamie Paul's decision to resign as party leader
Morrice 'open minded' about potential leadership run, but says focus is on new MP duties
Morrice is one of two Green MPs elected in last week's federal election. The other is former Green leader Elizabeth May in Saanich–Gulf Islands in B.C.
Morrice, who will represent the Ontario riding of Kitchener Centre, was attending orientation sessions for new MPs in Ottawa when he heard of Paul's announcement.
"I respect her decision," he said in an interview Monday afternoon. "There was a leadership review process that the party has in their constitution and I respect that Annamie has chosen to resign in advance of that."
Green Party of Ontario Leader Mike Schreiner released a statement saying Paul "is an important voice in Canadian politics."
"I was proud to campaign with her," he added.
In June, Paul accused a "small group" within the Green's governing body of trying to push her out.
Paul said the allegations made against her during a meeting that month "were so racist, so sexist, that they were immediately disavowed by both our MPs as offensive and inflammatory."
WATCH | Annamie Paul talk to CBC The National about allegations of racism, sexism in politics:
Schreiner said she had a strong performance in the leaders' debate during the election campaign, and her unique challenges as leader means "many people will be asking some important questions today."
"I'm sad that systemic barriers exist in all parts of our society, including political parties," he added.
"As leader of the Ontario Greens, I cannot speak for the federal party, but I do recognize that the party I lead has more work to do to combat systemic racism. I am committed to doing the hard work to build a party that is diverse, inclusive and welcoming."
Paul faced leadership review
Paul said on Monday that on election day, the only email she received from party officials was one calling an emergency meeting to launch a leadership review.
On Saturday night, there was an announcement sent to all members of the party saying a leadership review had been launched, she said.
"I just asked myself if this is something that I wanted to continue, whether I was willing to continue to put up with the attacks I knew would be coming, whether to continue to have to fight and struggle just to fulfil my democratically elected role as leader of this party, and I just don't have the heart for it," she said.
Paul said she broke a glass ceiling by becoming leader of the Green Party of Canada, but "what I didn't realize at the time was that I was breaking a glass ceiling that was going to fall on my head, and leave a lot of shards of glass that I was going to have to crawl over throughout my time as a leader."
Morrice 'open minded' about future
Morrice said he disagreed with calls earlier this year for Paul to step down or be removed as leader, and agreed with Schreiner that she faced barriers and systemic racism where others do not.
Looking ahead, Morrice said, new people joined the party's federal council in August, and he's optimistic there will be a chance for them to speak up and unify the party. He said he'd like to see the council focus on priorities like the climate crisis, addressing the lack of affordable housing and providing mental health services to people.
"They need to ensure that the newer voices on the council do more to support whoever it might be that steps into that role," he said.
When asked if he might consider running for the Green leadership, Morrice said he's "open minded," but his focus is on his new role as a member of Parliament.
"My focus needs to stay there, on our community, on the priorities from right across Kitchener Centre," he said. "That work is just beginning and that really is my focus."

Annamie Paul is stepping down as Green Party leader
Paul's time as leader was hampered by internal squabbling
Paul said she is leaving now because she can't bear to go through a fractious leadership review, a process that was formally launched Saturday by members eager to replace her after the party's poor showing in the 44th general election.
"I just asked myself whether this is something I wanted to continue, whether I was willing to put up with the attacks I knew would be coming, whether to continue to fight and struggle just to fulfil my democratically elected role as leader of this party," Paul told reporters at a Toronto press conference. "I just don't have the heart for it."
Paul, a bilingual former diplomat, was picked by members to take the reins of the party last October, becoming the first Jewish woman and Black person to lead a major federal political party.
She pushed to make the party more diverse and reflective of contemporary Canada but her time at the top will be remembered most for the internal squabbling that undermined her leadership and the party's electoral fortunes.
After posting its best result ever in the 2019 election, the resignation of its former leader Elizabeth May prompted soul-searching among the party's ranks as an ethnically and ideologically diverse group of candidates lined up to replace her.
Paul, a relative moderate, narrowly beat out an opponent who described himself as a "radical" and an "eco-socialist." Paul promised aggressive action on climate change and policies to address systemic discrimination.
Leadership tainted by infighting, policy disputes
But Paul was hampered by party infighting and a dispute over the party's policy on Israeli and Palestinian issues.
During the last Middle East crisis in May, Paul called for de-escalation and a return to dialogue — a response that was seen as insufficiently critical of Israel by some in the party, including one of its then MPs, Jenica Atwin.
Atwin, who eventually joined the Liberals and won re-election under that party banner last week, said Paul's response to what she called an ongoing "apartheid" was "totally inadequate."

Annamie Paul resigns as Green Party leader

Annamie
Paul has resigned as leader of the Green Party after months of
infighting within the party and a week after its dismal showing in the
federal election. 1:58
Another then-Green MP, Paul Manly, said the planned removal of some Palestinian families from East Jerusalem amounted to "ethnic cleansing."
An Israeli court has since ruled that Palestinians living in the contested neighbourhood of Sheikh Jarrah can stay in their homes, with some conditions.
The caucus pushback led one of Paul's advisers, Noah Zatzman, to accuse politicians, including some unspecified Green MPs, of discrimination and antisemitism.
"We will work to defeat you and bring in progressive climate champions who are antifa and pro LGBT and pro indigenous sovereignty and Zionists!!!!!" he said in a May social media post.

conceding defeat in her riding of Toronto Centre on election night in
Toronto, on Monday, Sept. 20, 2021. (Chris Young/Canadian Press)
Paul did little to distance herself from Zatzman, which angered some members who saw the leader's inaction as a sign that she endorsed her adviser's call to replace two incumbent Green MPs. The Zatzman post and Paul's reaction prompted Atwin's floor-crossing — a devastating blow to a party that had only three MPs.
Paul then faced several calls for a leadership review. At one point, party executives even tried to rescind her membership — an extraordinary move only weeks out from a widely expected election call.
Paul blamed the party's poor showing on unnamed senior party members who, she said Monday, "took great pleasure in attacking me." She said the party's national council stymied any chance of her doing well in the election because it held back some of the resources needed to run a winning campaign.
"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that when you head into an election without funding for your campaign, when you head into an election without the staff to staff your campaign, when you head into an election without a national campaign manager, when you head into an election being again under the threat of a court process from your party, it's going to be very hard to convince people to vote for your party," Paul said.
'It has been the worst period in my life'
Paul said she had thought of quitting before all the votes had been cast because her time as leader has been such a miserable experience.
"What people need to realize is that when I was elected and put in this role, I was breaking a glass ceiling. What I didn't realize at the time was that I was breaking a glass ceiling that was going to fall on my head and leave a lot of shards of glass that I was going to have to crawl over throughout my time as a leader," she said.
"This was not easy. It has been extremely painful. It has been the worst period in my life, in many respects."
Paul spent nearly all of the recent campaign in the riding of Toronto Centre, where she was running for a third time.
Paul justified the limited itinerary by saying some Green candidates didn't want her in their ridings during the election. She ultimately finished a disappointing fourth place in her bid to become an MP.
Under Paul's leadership, the party's vote dropped from a high-water mark of 1.1 million votes and 6.5 per cent of the national vote in 2019 to less than 400,000 votes and 2.3 per cent of the vote share in the most recent contest.
'Set up for failure'
In an interview with CBC News, Victoria Galea, Paul's executive assistant, said the leader was "absolutely pummeled" by the national council and other party brass during her time at the top.
"She was not set up for success in this election. She was absolutely set up for failure," she said, adding that Paul was "not given a single penny for the Toronto Centre campaign, which is wildly unprecedented."
Galea said some of the party's national council members are holdovers from May's time at the helm — and they're still loyal to the former leader.
"Every previous leader has a responsibility to a new leader, to allow them to grow in their new roles and allow them to have a smooth transition," she said, adding May bears some responsibility for the internal disputes.
"Every single day the party has set her up for failure, and that includes the former leader of the party."

Lori Turnbull is an associate professor of political science and the director of the School of Public Administration at Dalhousie University. She said it was always going to be difficult for May's successor to put her stamp on a party still so closely tied to the woman who led it for more than 13 years.
"For so long, it was really Elizabeth May's party and her brand was the party. People built trust in it largely because of how she performed. She was the face of the thing," Turnbull told CBC News.
"They're a small party. It's really difficult to try and manage a transition when you don't have the machinery, the institutional memory, the money and all the rest of it."
As for who the Greens should pick as their next leader, Turnbull said it would be a good idea to pick someone who has a seat in the Commons. While the party under-performed nationally, Green candidate Mike Morrice won his race in the Ontario riding of Kitchener Centre.
"There is some forward momentum to build on," Turnbull said.

FOR RENT: HAUNTED APARTMENT
APRIL CUNNINGHAM TELEGRAPH-JOURNAL
SAINT JOHN � There are some tenants who steer away from renting
apartments where eerie spirits lurk from centuries past.
And there are others who might embrace it.
Jason Fillmore is taking a gamble that his latest online advertisement
might lure the latter: people who aren�t afraid of sharing their digs
with a ghost or two.
�Why not?�said Fillmore, chief operating officer and partner with 3D
Property Management. �Some people are into that.�
In an effort to stand out from the 900 Kijiji postings for apartments
in Saint John, Fillmore posted an advertisement for a one-bedroom unit
on Clarendon Street in the north end, blatantly boasting the presence
of ghosts.
�It�s haunted, but the rent is great!� the posting reads.
Click on, and you find that the $600 unit features include a
security-locked entrance, laundry, a fridge, stove and a ghost
(followed by a winking emoticon).
While Fillmore has no actual proof of the supernatural in the
apartment, he says it�s not out of the question.
�It could be haunted. It�s an older building; maybe it is,� he said,
estimating the building owned by people who live out of the province to
be at least 100 years old.�Saint John is an old city, and there are
lots of ghost stories.�
So far there have been no bites, but the ad has led to viewings and
rentals of other properties, he said.
Fillmore�s creative marketing is the latest in a string of ads he has
posted � including one appealing to hypochondriacs who might want to
live near the hospital � as a way to break through the flooded rental
market.
The ploy is not unlike one used by real estate agent Jake Palmer, who
posted a �not haunted� sign � along with many others � at a home that
had been listed on the market on nearby Douglas Avenue for several
months two years ago.
The most recent statistics from the Canadian Mortgage and Housing
Corporation showed Saint John�s October vacancy rate at 11.4 per cent,
a number that has been steadily climbing over recent years and stands
higher than the vacancy rates in Fredericton and Moncton.
�If you go on Kijiji, every single ad looks the same,� Fillmore said.�I
guess the whole idea was pull their attention, pull them in. Then I�ve
got them.�
Claude Gautreau, a senior market analyst with the CMHC in Moncton, said
Saint John�s vacancy rates have been trending higher than those of
other provincial cities for a few years now, possibly because of
outmigration or lack of significant population growth.
While high vacancy rates create a more difficult situation for property
owners trying to make a return on their investment, they make for a
renter�s market, he said.
�If you want to live in a particular area of the city, or if you want a
particular kind of unit, you have a much better chance of finding what
you�re looking for,� he said.
The perfect situation for both renters and landlords is a�balanced
rate,� when both sides can meet their objectives, he said. In Saint
John, such a rate dates back to 2000, when the average vacancy rate was
about six per cent.
Gautreau said he doesn�t expect any big changes in the city�s vacancy
rate as new statistics are released in June, with only a slight
increase or decrease on the horizon.
As for Fillmore, he�ll continue to make the most of the challenging
market.
�It depends on how you look at it,� Fillmore said.�You could get into
what the CMHC is saying with the high vacancy, or you can just make it
work.�
For him, it all comes down to marketing, advertising and offering good
service rather than gimmicks such as a month�s free rent that might end
only in high tenant turnover.
The vacancy rate for units in the 45 buildings his company manages is
actually closer to eight per cent, he said.
�So we�re doing better than average.�
Mayor Mel Norton Dropped in to meet with us. Had a great conversation
about Saint John and the opportunities on the horizon.

N.B. senior hunts for apartment after new landlord doubles her rent
77-year-old's rent goes from $580 to $1,150
Mia Urquhart - CBC News
Posted: September 02, 2021
"Jason Fillmore, the company's regional director, declined an
interview with CBC, but sent a statement by email. He specified that
the Canada Homes for Rent does not own the building, but manages it
for "outside investors."
"The rent increase is necessary to maintain and upgrade the building
as it has been neglected for many years and fell in disrepair."
Fillmore said a hot real estate market has been pushing up rents.
"In most cases tenants have lived in properties for over a decade
without a rent increase and paying very low rents in a market that has
increased dramatically," he said. "Unfortunately [past] owners did not
keep up with the increases yearly, forcing the new owners of that
building to do larger rent increases to cover operating costs and
rising cost for materials."
He said the trend has been growing in Canada and has "finally hit New
Brunswick as real estate investors look east to buy properties."
Jason Fillmore, the Canada Homes for Rent regional manager, says a big
rent increase can reflect the failure of a property owner to repair
and maintain a building for years at a time. (Canada Homes for Rent)

MARIE ROY: They didn't do nothing. There was one guy that came in with
a camera. He said it was to measure the bedrooms and the kitchen. He
put his camera in the centre of the room. And then he said that
measures the room. And then, we got the pamphlet to explain payment
option and pending confirmation form, authorization for pre-authorized
payment. That's what we got. We got a pamphlet. And then, early last
week, that's the letter that I put on Facebook. That's the letter that
I got signed by Jason Fillmore. And we have until December 1st to get
the hell out, or we keep on paying, well, almost double -- 1,150 per
month. I live alone on a pension. I cannot afford this because I get
1,600 dollars. Now take off 1,150 on that. Take off another 150 for my
cable and phone. And then I have my car insurance, my life insurance,
what's going to be left to eat? I have no idea what I'm going to do.
It's cruel, really. I mean, I've never been involved with anything
like this before, never. I was here for the rest of my life. I'll have
to move because there's no way I can pay that. I mean, it's going to
be tough to move because I mean, to hire somebody to move you these
days, it's expensive. I don't know how in the hell I'm going to do it?

$400 rent increase leaves Fredericton senior scrambling to find

'I was in shock,' says Bernadette McGregor, who sees few housing options
Alexandre Silberman · CBC News · Posted: Dec 03, 2020 2:09 PM AT
"Jason Fillmore, regional director of Canada Homes for Rent, declined
an interview with CBC News.
FIllmore said in a statement that he's sympathetic, but the increase
to $1,200 a month is typical of the market in that area of Lincoln."

N.B. NDP leader resigns
Party will hold leadership convention within six months
CBC News · Posted: Oct 25, 2010 9:44 AM AT
NDP Leader Roger Duguay, pictured here on election night, announced at
a Monday news conference that he will resign from the party's
leadership. ((CBC))
New Brunswick NDP Leader Roger Duguay is resigning as party leader
after failing to win a seat in the Sept. 27 election.
Under Duguay's leadership, the New Democratic Party won more than 10
per cent of the vote, more than double the party's showing in the 2006
election.
"Across New Brunswick, even in the face of a Conservative tide, the
NDP showed the biggest gains of all the political parties," Duguay
told a Monday news conference.
But Duguay was unable to win personally in the northeastern riding of
Tracadie-Sheila. The NDP leader spent nearly the entire 32-day
election period campaigning in the riding but still only placed second
to Conservative Claude Landry, who held the seat in the last
legislature.
The NDP attracted roughly 40,000 votes in the Sept. 27 election but
didn't manage to win a seat. The party has been shut out of the
provincial legislature since its former leader, Elizabeth Weir,
resigned in 2005.
Duguay issued a parting challenge to Premier David Alward. The
outgoing NDP Leader said he wants the Progressive Conservative
government to bring forward a system of proportional representation.
The former Bernard Lord government struck a Commission on Legislative
Democracy that recommended a system of proportional representation.
Lord had promised to hold a referendum on the issue, but he was
defeated before having a chance to hold a public vote on the issue.
Alward's Tories did not talk about electoral reform in the recent election.
Duguay won the party's leadership in October 2007. Before entering
politics, Duguay was a school teacher and a priest.
Now that his political career is over, Duguay said he will teach
school in the Acadian peninsula.
2011 leadership convention
The NDP will hold a leadership convention that will take place in the
next six months, according to Dominic Cardy, a party spokesman.
Cardy said the party wants to take advantage of the momentum created
for the party.
"We have a lot of strengths going forward," Cardy said.
"It is sad that Mr. Duguay will not be leading us in the next four
years, but he left the party in good shape."
The Conservatives trounced the ruling Liberals in the September
election. Under Duguay's leadership, the NDP repeatedly attacked the
spending promises made by the more traditional parties.
He said New Brunswick could not afford the promises, and in the
party's television ad, he accused the two parties of driving the
province over a debt cliff.
Alward praised Duguay in a news release on Monday.
"On behalf of the government of New Brunswick, I wish to pay tribute
to Roger Duguay for his proven commitment to public service in our
province," he said.
"Mr. Duguay did a great deal to ensure more people had their views
heard in our society and, ultimately, to strengthen democracy in New
Brunswick. He can be very proud of his legacy as a member, as a
candidate and, for the past three years, as the leader of the NDP."
Party members react
Jason Purdy, a defeated NDP candidate in the Fredericton-Lincoln
riding, said the departing leader would be missed inside the party.
"Roger will definitely be missed by the NDP, he is a very dedicated,
honest and caring individual," Purdy said in a post on Twitter.
Matt Doherty, a defeated NDP candidate in the Quispamsis riding, said
Duguay's leadership should be celebrated considering the challenges he
faced.
"I don't think people will be critical of the fact he didn't win his
seat or any others. What I focus on is the actual success there,"
Doherty said.
"We got the second-highest percentage of the popular vote in the
history of the party in New Brunswick. That speaks volumes to the type
of leader that he was."
Doherty said the outgoing leader will be remembered for the civility
he demonstrated even under the intense glare of an election campaign.
"Roger had an aura of graciousness about him, and you could see it in
the leaders' debates — both the English and the French ones," Doherty
said.
"He is above petty politics. I think we need more of that."
The party will select an interim leader when the executive meets in
late November.

NDP gets help from democracy expert
CBC News · Posted: Jan 09, 2006 4:23 PM AT
An international expert on democracy has flown all the way from Egypt
to help NDP candidate John Carty campaign in Fredericton.
Dominic Cardy is with a group called The National Democratic
Institute. Its members include such people as former U.S. President
Jimmy Carter. The group's mission is to teach democratic values and
spread democracy around the world.
Cardy has taught about democracy in Algeria, Bangladesh, and Cambodia
during the past few years. When he heard his friend John Carty was
running for office back in his home town of Fredericton, he hopped on
a plane.
"It was a strange experience," Cardy said. "One evening I was watching
the sun go down over the pyramids, and the next evening watched it go
down over Fredericton airport as I came into land."
Cardy is no relation to the NDP candidate. But he loves elections and
loves getting people pumped up about democracy.
Carty the candidate is running against federal Indian Affairs Minister
Andy Scott, Conservative Pat Lynch, Green candidate Philip Duchastel
and independent David Amos. The riding has sent Scott to Ottawa for
the last four elections, despite the best efforts of the other
parties.
Cardy says he doesn't care how tough the race his – he just wants
people to participate in the process. "People have forgotten how
incredibly precious these gifts that our ancestors fought for are and
were just giving them away. It makes me furious when I talk to people
and people just say 'ah there's no point in voting.'"
After election day, Dominic Cardy is flying back home to his wife in
Kathmandu, Nepal. He hopes to leave behind a new Member of Parliament
for Fredericton, his friend John Carty for the NDP.

A champion for a better future in Malpeque
Heath MacDonald and Justin Trudeau are the only team with a real plan
to grow our economy, protect people’s health, protect a clean
environment, and make life better for families right here in our
community.
While Erin O’Toole’s Conservatives are focused on going backward with
cuts to vital services that families rely on, Liberals will keep
moving forward with bold action to create good new jobs, invest in the
middle class and the most vulnerable, and ensure that everyone has a
real and fair chance at success.
Together, we can elect a dedicated Liberal Member of Parliament to
work with Justin Trudeau to build a better future for everyone.

Heath MacDonald is the MLA for District 16, Cornwall-Meadowbank,
currently seeking the nomination for the Liberal Party of Canada in

CFTA Tantramar 107.9 FM
July t2
Exactly 10 years ago today, at 1:07 PM, CFTA 107.9 began transmitting
a test broadcast, as was required by Industry Canada and the CRTC. A
few weeks later, we sent up a temporary studio in an old GMC van at
the tower site, that allowed limited live shows until our studios in
Victoria Court were up and running. Shortly after we signed on, this
big sign appeared in East Amherst.

Cumberland North pits high-profile Independent vs. former 7-term MP
Newcomers for the PCs and NDP, meanwhile, hope to shake things up in
border district
Michael Gorman · CBC News · Posted: Aug 10, 2021 6:00 AM AT
While some people see this as a two-person race, David Wightman and
Lauren Skabar are hoping to change that.
Running for the Progressive Conservatives, Wightman has had some
catching up to do because of his late entry into the campaign.
Election materials were late arriving, and while Smith-McCrossin and
Casey signs pepper the district, Wightman only recently started
putting his up.
But he's hoping a platform that focuses on health care, along with
community anger directed at the Liberals, will hold him in good stead.
"I think the Liberals have had their turn to try and fix things, and I
think they've only gotten worse," he said, pointing to the growing
wait list of people looking for a family doctor.
While he expresses interest in working on a variety of issues,
Wightman said health care is top of mind for him as a stroke survivor
and because his wife went through treatment for cancer. There are
aspects of the system unique to that region that Wightman hopes to
address.
"One of the things I'd like to see is a better approach to how to get
people to medical appointments that are travelling back and forth
across the [New Brunswick] border," he said.
A time to unite
Skabar is the NDP candidate. Her father, Brian, was elected in the
district in 2009 as part of the NDP's surge to power, but she said
politics was in her blood long before that.
Health care for the area is a major issue, said Skabar, given routine
emergency department closures at community sites and difficulties
getting enough nurses and doctors to the region.
"Until we start incentivizing health-care professionals coming to
places like Cumberland North and our smaller communities, we aren't
going to see any improvements," she said.

"Both Houston and Burrill were critical of Rankin dropping this idea
in the midst of an election campaign.
"I don't think it indicates the kind of grasp and soundness that we
would look to see from a party that seeks to govern the province,"
said Burrill.
Houston said: "I'll just speak bluntly, our campaign is going very
well and he's concerned heading into the last week of the campaign."

>>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Defendant
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> ORDER
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
>>>>>>>>> December 14, 2015)
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant
>>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on
>>>>>>>>> November
>>>>>>>>> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of
>>>>>>>>> Claim
>>>>>>>>> in its entirety.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my
>>>>>>>>> attention
>>>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>>>> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
>>>>>>>>> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the
>>>>>>>>> Canadian
>>>>>>>>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen
>>>>>>>>> Quigg,
>>>>>>>>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that
>>>>>>>>> letter
>>>>>>>>> he stated:
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check
>>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including
>>>>>>>>> you.
>>>>>>>>> You are your brother’s keeper.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
>>>>>>>>> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition
>>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a
>>>>>>>>> number
>>>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>>>> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be
>>>>>>>>> witnesses
>>>>>>>>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known
>>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
>>>>>>>>> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
>>>>>>>>> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court
>>>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>>>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
>>>>>>>>> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau;
>>>>>>>>> former
>>>>>>>>> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former
>>>>>>>>> Staff
>>>>>>>>> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick
>>>>>>>>> Court
>>>>>>>>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and,
>>>>>>>>> retired
>>>>>>>>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>>>>>>>>> Police.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>>>>>>>>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>>>>>>>>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I
>>>>>>>>> am
>>>>>>>>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias
>>>>>>>>> should
>>>>>>>>> I
>>>>>>>>> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
>>>>>>>>> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et
>>>>>>>>> al,
>>>>>>>>> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
>>>>>>>>> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party
>>>>>>>>> has
>>>>>>>>> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the
>>>>>>>>> Administrator
>>>>>>>>> of

>>>>>>>> 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
>>>>>>>> in or knowledge of the case when the Wilson Walker firm had
>>>>>>>> carriage.
>>>>>>>> In these circumstances it cannot be reasonably contended that the
>>>>>>>> trial judge could not remain impartial in the case. The mere fact
>>>>>>>> that
>>>>>>>> his name appears on the letterhead of some correspondence from over
>>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>>> decade ago would not lead a reasonable person to believe that he
>>>>>>>> would
>>>>>>>> either consciously or unconsciously favour his former firm's former
>>>>>>>> client. It is simply not realistic to think that a judge would
>>>>>>>> throw
>>>>>>>> off his mantle of impartiality, ignore his oath of office and
>>>>>>>> favour
>>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>>> client - about whom he knew nothing - of a firm that he left six
>>>>>>>> years
>>>>>>>> earlier and that no longer acts for the client, in a case involving
>>>>>>>> events from over a decade ago.
>>>>>>>> (emphasis added)
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [19] Justice Webb had no involvement with any matter
>>>>>>>> involving Mr. Amos while he was a member of Patterson Palmer or
>>>>>>>> Patterson Law, nor does Mr. Amos suggest that he did. Mr. Amos made
>>>>>>>> it
>>>>>>>> clear during the hearing of this matter that the only reason for
>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>> alleged conflict for Justice Webb was that he was a member of
>>>>>>>> Patterson Law and Patterson Palmer. This is simply not enough for
>>>>>>>> Justice Webb to be disqualified. Any involvement of Mr. Amos with
>>>>>>>> Patterson Law while Justice Webb was a member of that firm would
>>>>>>>> have
>>>>>>>> had to occur over 10 years ago and even longer for the time when he
>>>>>>>> was a member of Patterson Palmer. In addition to the lack of any
>>>>>>>> involvement on his part with any matter or dispute that Mr. Amos
>>>>>>>> had
>>>>>>>> with Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer (which in and of itself is
>>>>>>>> sufficient to dispose of this matter), the length of time since
>>>>>>>> Justice Webb was a member of Patterson Law or Patterson Palmer
>>>>>>>> would
>>>>>>>> also result in the same finding – that there is no conflict in
>>>>>>>> Justice
>>>>>>>> Webb hearing this appeal.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [20] Similarly in R. v. Bagot, 2000 MBCA 30, 145 Man. R.
>>>>>>>> (2d) 260, the Manitoba Court of Appeal found that there was no
>>>>>>>> reasonable apprehension of bias when a judge, who had been a member
>>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>>> the law firm that had been retained by the accused, had no
>>>>>>>> involvement
>>>>>>>> with the accused while he was a lawyer with that firm.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [21] In Del Zotto v. Minister of National Revenue, [2000]
>>>>>>>> 4
>>>>>>>> F.C. 321, 257 N.R. 96, this court did find that there would be a
>>>>>>>> reasonable apprehension of bias where a judge, who while he was a
>>>>>>>> lawyer, had recorded time on a matter involving the same person who
>>>>>>>> was before that judge. However, this case can be distinguished as
>>>>>>>> Justice Webb did not have any time recorded on any files involving
>>>>>>>> Mr.
>>>>>>>> Amos while he was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [22] Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He
>>>>>>>> stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true
>>>>>>>> copy
>>>>>>>> of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this
>>>>>>>> CD.
>>>>>>>> He has also indicated that he has “provided a true copy of the CD
>>>>>>>> entitled 139 to many American and Canadian law enforcement
>>>>>>>> authorities
>>>>>>>> and not one of the police forces or officers of the court are
>>>>>>>> willing
>>>>>>>> to investigate it”. Since he has indicated that this is an
>>>>>>>> “American
>>>>>>>> police surveillance wiretap”, this is a matter for the American law
>>>>>>>> enforcement authorities and cannot create, as Mr. Amos suggests, a
>>>>>>>> conflict of interest for any judge to whom he provides a copy.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [23] As a result, there is no conflict or reasonable
>>>>>>>> apprehension of bias for Justice Webb and therefore, no reason for
>>>>>>>> him
>>>>>>>> to recuse himself.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [24] Mr. Amos alleged that Justice Near’s past
>>>>>>>> professional
>>>>>>>> experience with the government created a “quasi-conflict” in
>>>>>>>> deciding
>>>>>>>> the cross-appeal. Mr. Amos provided no details and Justice Near
>>>>>>>> confirmed that he had no prior knowledge of the matters alleged in
>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>> Claim. Justice Near sees no reason to recuse himself.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [25] Insofar as it is possible to glean the basis for Mr.
>>>>>>>> Amos’ allegations against Justice Gleason, it appears that he
>>>>>>>> alleges
>>>>>>>> that she is incapable of hearing this appeal because he says he
>>>>>>>> wrote
>>>>>>>> a letter to Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien in 2004. At that time,
>>>>>>>> both Justice Gleason and Mr. Mulroney were partners in the law firm
>>>>>>>> Ogilvy Renault, LLP. The letter in question, which is rude and
>>>>>>>> angry,
>>>>>>>> begins with “Hey you two Evil Old Smiling Bastards” and “Re: me
>>>>>>>> suing
>>>>>>>> you and your little dogs too”. There is no indication that the
>>>>>>>> letter
>>>>>>>> was ever responded to or that a law suit was ever commenced by Mr.
>>>>>>>> Amos against Mr. Mulroney. In the circumstances, there is no reason
>>>>>>>> for Justice Gleason to recuse herself as the letter in question
>>>>>>>> does
>>>>>>>> not give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> III. Issue
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [26] The issue on the cross-appeal is as follows: Did the
>>>>>>>> Judge err in setting aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the
>>>>>>>> Claim
>>>>>>>> in its entirety without leave to amend and in determining that Mr.
>>>>>>>> Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick
>>>>>>>> legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action?
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> IV. Analysis
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> A. Standard of Review
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [27] Following the Judge’s decision to set aside the
>>>>>>>> Prothonotary’s Order, this Court revisited the standard of review
>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>> be applied to discretionary decisions of prothonotaries and
>>>>>>>> decisions
>>>>>>>> made by judges on appeals of prothonotaries’ decisions in Hospira
>>>>>>>> Healthcare Corp. v. Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, 2016 FCA
>>>>>>>> 215,
>>>>>>>> 402 D.L.R. (4th) 497 [Hospira]. In Hospira, a five-member panel of
>>>>>>>> this Court replaced the Aqua-Gem standard of review with that
>>>>>>>> articulated in Housen v. Nikolaisen, 2002 SCC 33, [2002] 2 S.C.R.
>>>>>>>> 235
>>>>>>>> [Housen]. As a result, it is no longer appropriate for the Federal
>>>>>>>> Court to conduct a de novo review of a discretionary order made by
>>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>>> prothonotary in regard to questions vital to the final issue of the
>>>>>>>> case. Rather, a Federal Court judge can only intervene on appeal if
>>>>>>>> the prothonotary made an error of law or a palpable and overriding
>>>>>>>> error in determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact
>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>> law (Hospira at para. 79). Further, this Court can only interfere
>>>>>>>> with
>>>>>>>> a Federal Court judge’s review of a prothonotary’s discretionary

>>>>>>>> a) The public officer must have engaged in deliberate and unlawful

>>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>>> public officer acted in bad faith or dishonestly.
>>>>>>>> Odhavji, above, at paras 23, 24 and 28
>>>>>>>> (Federal Court Judgment at para. 28).
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [32] The Judge determined that Mr. Amos disclosed

>>>>>>>> in Merchant Law Group v. Canada (Revenue Agency), 2010 FCA 184, 321
>>>>>>>> D.L.R (4th) 301 is particularly apt:
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> …When pleading bad faith or abuse of power, it is not enough to
>>>>>>>> assert, baldly, conclusory phrases such as “deliberately or
>>>>>>>> negligently,” “callous disregard,” or “by fraud and theft did
>>>>>>>> steal”.
>>>>>>>> “The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called
>>>>>>>> upon to pronounce is not an allegation of material fact”. Making
>>>>>>>> bald,
>>>>>>>> conclusory allegations without any evidentiary foundation is an
>>>>>>>> abuse
>>>>>>>> of process…
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> To this, I would add that the tort of misfeasance in public office
>>>>>>>> requires a particular state of mind of a public officer in carrying
>>>>>>>> out the impunged action, i.e., deliberate conduct which the public
>>>>>>>> officer knows to be inconsistent with the obligations of his or her
>>>>>>>> office. For this tort, particularization of the allegations is
>>>>>>>> mandatory. Rule 181 specifically requires particularization of
>>>>>>>> allegations of “breach of trust,” “wilful default,” “state of mind
>>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>>> a person,” “malice” or “fraudulent intention.”
>>>>>>>> (at paras. 34-35, citations omitted).
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [34] Applying the Housen standard of review to the
>>>>>>>> Prothonotary’s Order, we are of the view that the Judge interfered
>>>>>>>> absent a legal or palpable and overriding error.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [35] The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim
>>>>>>>> disclosed no reasonable claim and was fundamentally vexatious on
>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>> basis of jurisdictional concerns and the absence of material facts
>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>> ground a cause of action. Paragraph 14 of the Claim, which
>>>>>>>> addresses
>>>>>>>> the 2004 event, pleads no material facts as to how the RCMP officer
>>>>>>>> engaged in deliberate and unlawful conduct, knew that his or her
>>>>>>>> conduct was unlawful and likely to harm Mr. Amos, and acted in bad
>>>>>>>> faith. While the Claim alleges elsewhere that Mr. Amos was barred
>>>>>>>> from
>>>>>>>> the New Brunswick legislature for political and/or malicious
>>>>>>>> reasons,
>>>>>>>> these allegations are not particularized and are directed against
>>>>>>>> non-federal actors, such as the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative
>>>>>>>> Assembly of New Brunswick and the Fredericton Police Force. As
>>>>>>>> such,
>>>>>>>> the Judge erred in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the
>>>>>>>> RCMP
>>>>>>>> barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable
>>>>>>>> of
>>>>>>>> supporting a cause of action.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> [36] In our view, the Claim is made up entirely of bare

>>>>> An RCMP security detail has been guarding Justice Minister and

>>>>>
>>>>> Burke, the Liberal MLA for Fredericton-Fort Nashwaaksis, wouldn't

>>>>>
>>>>> "I have had a particular individual or individuals who have made

>>>>> Wednesday.
>>>>>
>>>>> "The RCMP has provided security to me recently by accompanying me to a

>>>>>
>>>>> The RCMP provides protection to the premier and MLAs with its VIP

>>>>>
>>>>> Burke didn't say when the threat was made but it's believed to have

>>>>>
>>>>> "When a threat is posed to you and it is a credible threat, you have

>>>>>
>>>>> Burke said he doesn't feel any differently and he has not changed his

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

>>>>> Burke served in an elite American military unit before becoming a

>>>>> "(I) have taken my own precautions and what I have to do to ensure my

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

>>>>>
>>>>> Burke said it is not uncommon for politicians to have security

>>>>>
>>>>> "We do live unfortunately in an age and in a society now where threats

>>>>>
>>>>> Burke said sometimes people do not differentiate between his role as

>>>>>
>>>>> "With the job sometimes comes threats," he said. "I have had numerous

>>>>>
>>>>> "I think it is more of an issue where people get fixated on a matter

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

O'Toole campaigns in Saint John a day after Trudeau's Fredericton stop
Conservative leader makes pitch to people considering vote for
People's Party of Canada
Jacques Poitras · CBC News · Posted: Sep 16, 2021 5:22 PM AT

One day after Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau dropped in on Fredericton,
Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole made a last-minute stop in Saint John
in a final scramble for votes ahead of Monday's federal election.
O'Toole appeared with five of his New Brunswick candidates, including
Saint John-Rothesay's Mel Norton, in the iceless ice shed of a local
curling club.
He sent a clear signal to supporters of the People's Party of Canada
that they should be supporting him instead.
"There is only one leader that can replace Justin Trudeau," he said.
"Channel that frustration to replace Mr. Trudeau. We hear you. We know
you're frustrated, which is why we have a plan to get our country back
on its feet."
O'Toole avoided several questions from reporters on decisions by
Premier Blaine Higgs and his Alberta counterpart Jason Kenney to
reimpose public-health restrictions in the face of rising COVID-19
case numbers.

candidates O'Toole appeared with on his Saint John stop. (Graham
Thompson/CBC)
Alberta reported more than 1,600 new cases on Wednesday, and New
Brunswick's active-case count of 336 on Thursday is close to the
province's all-time pandemic peak of 348 in January.
O'Toole would not say what he thinks of Higgs's announcement Wednesday
that proof of vaccination will be required to enter non-essential
businesses and facilities starting next week.
"I will always work with the provinces on their decisions related to
proof of vaccination, QR codes, vaccine passports," he said.
People's Party supporters oppose such requirements and O'Toole dodged
a question over whether he is happy people with such opinions are not
part of his Conservative Party.
"For anyone that wants to build a better country, anybody that wants
to secure jobs, anyone that wants to rebuild our health care system
after 18 very difficult months, there is one choice in this election.
It's Canada's Conservatives," he said.
Questioned about banned firearms
O'Toole also fielded a question about the M14 semi-automatic rifle,
the kind of firearm used in the fatal shooting of three Codiac RCMP
officers in Moncton. It's among the guns banned by the Trudeau Liberal
government.
"The tragic shooting in Moncton is still something that resonates
today," O'Toole said.
But he did not say directly whether his promised "non-partisan, fully
public review" of firearms classifications could lead to the weapon
becoming legal again.
"We need to keep guns out of the hands out of the hands of criminals
and give the resources to police officers to do that," he said.
O'Toole's stop followed one by Trudeau late on Wednesday, when he
appeared with Fredericton candidate Jenica Atwin at a local craft
brewery.

Wednesday. (Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press)
The Liberal leader talked up the massive spending by his government to
subsidize wages and businesses during the pandemic.
"We knew as a government that we had to have your backs," he said, and
every step of the way, Conservatives were busy telling us, 'No, no,
you're doing too much.'"
Atwin left the Green Party in June to join the Liberals and become
their candidate. In 2019, she won a tight three-way race in
Fredericton over Conservative Andrea Johnston and Liberal Matt
DeCourcey.
Johnston is running again this time, and the Green candidate is Nicole O'Byrne.
In recent weeks Trudeau and O'Toole have both visited another riding
that was close in 2019, Miramichi-Grand Lake, but neither leader made
stops there this time.

Support for People's Party climbing, but impact in N.B. remains to be seen
Anecdotal evidence suggests increase in support for party compared to
2019 election
Jacques Poitras · CBC News · Posted: Sep 16, 2021 6:00 AM AT
Support for the People's Party of Canada is rising nationally
according to polls, but the impact they'll have in New Brunswick
remains to be seen. Pictured is a supporter of the People's Party of
Canada protesting prior to the English language leaders' debate, in
Gatineau, Que., Tuesday, Sept. 7, 2021. (Nathan Denette/The Canadian

Andrea Anderson-Mason was in a store in her riding last weekend when
she was approached by one of her supporters with a message.
"They complimented me on the job we are doing here in New Brunswick,"
says the Progressive Conservative MLA for Fundy-The Isles-Saint John
West.
"But they wanted to let me know they would be voting PPC in the
federal election."
It wasn't the first time in the federal campaign that Anderson-Mason
detected support for the People's Party of Canada among her provincial
PC voters. She has seen PPC signs on some of their lawns.
That didn't happen in 2019, the first election for the PPC.
"I do a see difference this time compared to last time," she says. "I
think it relates back to a general frustration with government as a
whole."

versus the one in 2019. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)
It's anecdotal evidence but it matches national polling trends.
At the start of the campaign, the PPC, a populist-libertarian party
founded by former Conservative MP Maxime Bernier, was below four per
cent in most samples, falling short of the criteria for inclusion in
the televised leaders' debates.
Now the party is up to around seven to nine per cent in some polls,
meaning they could start having an impact on some races in New
Brunswick.
Are the Conservatives worried about the People's Party of Canada —
or should they be?
Analysis
Moving from fringe to 4th place, PPC complicates the
Conservatives' path to power
"Every day it seems to be picking up a little bit more and a little
bit more," says Nicholas Pereira, the PPC candidate in Saint
John-Rothesay.
"There's a portion of the population that we can see is significant
that now feels like they have a political home."
Nicholas Pereira, People's Party of Canada candidate for Saint
John-Rothesay, says he's seen a growing number of people who've found
a "political home" with the PPC. (Zoom)
Liberal incumbent Wayne Long says Pereira "is certainly out and about.
He's doing videos. He's knocking on doors and he's got signs up."
Last month a video of Bernier and Pereira crossing paths with
provincial Education Minister Dominic Cardy got a lot of attention
online. Pereira says it helped raise his profile.
The party's growth is fuelled by anger among a minority of Canadians
over mask rules, proposed vaccination passports and mandatory
vaccination rules in federal settings.
"I think a lot of people, whether vaccinated or unvaccinated, are
concerned about the passports, what that would look like, and how it's
going to fundamentally change how we operate," Pereira says.
Supporters of the passport concept, however, say it would be a
convenient tool for people who have been vaccinated to live relatively
safe, normal lives.
Bernier has opted not to be vaccinated, saying he doesn't think he'll
get sick from COVID-19. That view is at odds with overwhelming
scientific evidence that the risks of serious illness among
unvaccinated people are far higher than the chance of any vaccine
side-effects.

get vaccinated against COVID-19, saying he doesn't think he'll get
sick from it. (Jacques Boissinot/The Canadian Press)
The PPC's denial that climate change is the result of human activity
is also contradicted by decades of data.
But it's the vaccine issue that is driving the party's new support.
The PPC won 1.6 per cent of the vote nationally in the 2019 election,
when libertarian economic issues and immigration were the focus of its
campaign.
But in New Brunswick, it did better than that, with 2.1 per cent of
the popular vote, its second best result among the provinces and
territories.
In Miramichi-Grand Lake, PPC candidate Ron Nowlan won 1,216 votes in
2019, more than three times the margin of victory for the Liberal
candidate over the second-place Conservative.
CBC poll analyst Eric Grenier, publisher of the polling newsletter the
Writ, says it's hard to predict how the PPC will affect the vote this
time because it's tricky measuring who its voters supported in the
past.
"It's certain that the Conservatives are the ones who are losing most,
but it's not clear how much of it it is," Grenier said.
At least some PPC voters did not vote last time. Pereira says he
didn't cast a ballot in 2019 and was drawn to the party purely on the
vaccination issue.
"A lot of people finally have gone, 'Politics does affect me, I should
pay attention.'"
Others, like Moncton-area resident Serge Robichaud, are switching from
other parties.
I'm not impressed but what do I do? Who do I vote for?
- Moncton-area resident Serge Robichaud
Robichaud has been a Green Party supporter for more than a decade but
says he made the switch when he heard provincial leader David Coon
call for stricter vaccination requirements.
"It is the single most important issue for me in this election, and
the only party that has spoken out against it is the PPC," Robichaud
said.
He says he doesn't like Bernier's positions on other issues but the
vaccine debate leaves him no choice.
"I'm not impressed but what do I do? Who do I vote for?"
The increase in popularity worries progressive voters like Richard
Blaquiere, a retired Woodstock High School teacher who won the New
Brunswick Human Rights Award for his work educating students about
anti-Semitism and the Holocaust.
"There are several things in that platform that are worrisome," he
says, such as the party's opposition to climate change action and
multiculturalism. "It's not just the anti-vaxx thing."
Former teacher Richard Blaquiere says the PPC's opposition to climate
change action and multiculturalism are worrying, on top of the
"anti-vaxx thing." (CBC)
Blaquiere's been monitoring the PPC online and says it's galling that
party supporters compare vaccine passports to the yellow stars used by
Nazi Germany to identify and stigmatize Jews.
He says the party is building support based on "what I consider to be
manipulation of a lot of good people out of fear" and worries Bernier
might win in the riding where he's running in Quebec. "If they get one
seat, that's a foothold."
Anderson-Mason says she doesn't expect the PPC to come anywhere close
to winning her federal riding of New Brunswick Southwest but their
support reflects that some voters are "having a hard time
distinguishing between the mainstream parties."
Another factor that may help the party are its purple logo and signs,
a visual reminder of the provincial People's Alliance, which holds two
seats in the New Brunswick legislature.
Alliance Leader Kris Austin was reluctant to comment on the PPC's
popularity because he says he doesn't want anyone to think the two
parties are aligned. Austin supports COVID-19 vaccinations and is
vaccinated himself, while Pereira won't say whether he's had the
shots.
Even so, Austin says his party's breakthrough in 2018 is an indicator
that voters "are seeking an alternative to the status quo of politics
that we often see in the two-party system."

Subject: Our Military Is Being Compromised
To: david.raymond.amos333@gmail.
Friend,
Our military is being decimated.
Joe Biden is overseeing what might be the worst period in history for
our armed forces.
First, the bungled withdraw from Afghanistan that caused the senseless
and avoidable loss of 13 members of our military and destroyed morale
within the miltary.
Now, it's the mandates. The Biden overlords have decided that they're
willing to sacrifice the top talent of the most prestigious military
the world has ever seen over mandatory covid vaccinations - even for
those soldiers who have natural immunity!
There are many members of our miltary that are threatening to walkoff
the job if they're forced to take a vaccine that they may not need.
Some of the best pilots in the world, with thousands of hours and
millions of dollars invested in their training, have said they're
going to walk.
This will ground our airplanes and cripple our capabilities.
We can't be silent. Our safety and security depends on it,.
Thank you,
Donald Trump Jr.
