Subject: Pierre Poilievre Just Cancelled Ed Fast | Pierre Poilièvre
vient de cancel Ed Fast
To: david.raymond.amos333@gmail.
« Le français suivra »
David,
Pierre Poilievre just cancelled Ed Fast.
Until yesterday, Ed was the party’s finance critic. Ed has been doing
a fantastic job of holding the Liberals to account for their terrible
economic policy.
Pierre, on the other hand, has been touting some pretty sketchy stuff.
Pierre says that investing in cryptocurrency is a good way to opt out
of inflation, even though bitcoin is looking more and more like a fast
way to lose your life savings.
Pierre also says politicians should stop telling the Bank of Canada
what to do, but then promised to fire the head of the Bank of Canada
because he’s not doing what Pierre thinks he should do, which looks an
awful lot like a politician telling the Bank of Canada what to do.
Out of concern for the Party and the country, Ed spoke out about the
legitimate concerns he has with Pierre’s economic rhetoric.
Pierre didn’t like that. So, he pressured his allies in the caucus to
try to put a muzzle on Ed.
Ed is the Dean of the BC Caucus, got the Canada European Trade
agreement ratified, and has been one of the stalwarts of our Party.
He got pushed out because he spoke his mind. Pierre is so sure he’s
going to win this leadership race that he’s already punishing anyone
who doesn’t agree with him.
Being a bully isn’t leadership.
Fortunately, Party members have another choice. Muzzles and bully
tactics aren’t Jean Charest’s style because he’s a serious and
credible leader.
We must stop Pierre from tearing the Party apart, and Jean Charest is
the only candidate who can do that.
The best way you can show your support for Ed is by buying a
membership
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/royal-visit-republicanism-1.6452724
The royals are nearly here, but over half of Canadians want them gone for good. Here's how that could work
Becoming a republic is a long and complicated road — but another option is within reach
Atlantic Canada has long been a stronghold for monarchists, explains Jamie Bradley, the Atlantic director of Citizens for a Canadian Republic.
"Queen Elizabeth is beloved," Bradley said in an interview from Halifax. "And rightly so."
But as the 96-year-old head of state ages, the question of whether to replace her with Prince Charles looms, even within the royalty-loving East Coast.
"You can love the queen. You can love the Royal Family. It doesn't mean that they have to 'rule' Canada," Bradley says.
An Angus Reid opinion poll in April revealed that 51 per cent of respondents from across the country want to abolish the monarchy, a steep rise from previous years. And Bradley says the popularity of the Royal Family as a whole has plummeted, too.
But if not Charles as the Canadian head of state — then who?
Jamie
Bradley oversees the Atlantic region for a lobbying group that's keen
to replace the British monarch as the Canadian head of state. (Submitted by Jamie Bradley)
"You can certainly have anybody sit in what's known as the Office of the Queen," says Bradley. "We just automatically have the British monarch as the Canadian monarch because it's the way it's always been done."
Severing ties with the British monarchy doesn't mean ditching the entire constitutional system built around them, he adds: the head of state could be the governor general. It could be an elected person or committee, or someone appointed by the prime minister.
"We don't have to change anything really, because we are de facto a parliamentary republic," he said. "The governor general really does all the work."
The rocky road to republicanism
But what about getting rid of the whole idea altogether, rather than simply replacing the figurehead? That, says Robert Tay-Burroughs, a PhD student at the University of New Brunswick, is where things get tricky.
"It requires the unanimous consent of both houses of Parliament and all the legislatures of all the provinces," Tay-Burroughs explained. "So not an easy feat, by any means."
Then there's the problem of how to replace the institution that gives the federal government its authority: dismantling the Crown, he says, means rebuilding the country from scratch.
Robert
Tay-Burroughs, who studies the Crown as a political institution, says
replacing it completely presents some serious complications. (Submitted by Robert Tay-Burroughs)
"Abolishing the monarchy doesn't automatically get rid of that," he says. Everything from courts to Indigenous land treaties would need to be examined, and essentially rewritten, based on a republican political model.
"It's another thing entirely when we're talking about abolishing the Crown," he said. "What then becomes the source of authority for agents of the Crown, civil servants acting on behalf of Canada or on behalf of the province?"
To complicate things further, he says, some provinces and First Nations may choose not to dissolve the Crown at all, especially when doing so may threaten Indigenous land rights.
"The Canadian anti-monarchy conversation … doesn't really talk about the kind of post-colonial oppression and reparation conversation that we have seen earlier this year across the Caribbean," he said, referring to protests that swept Jamaica during a visit from Prince William and Kate in March, and a move by Barbados to ditch the royals in favour of a Barbadian head of state.

the former British colony by Prince William and Kate in Kingston,

But Bradley thinks, bureaucratically speaking, installing a Canadian as head of state could be fairly simple — and nudge the country a step further along its long journey to independence.
"Until we get that one little thing done fully — a Canadian head of state — we're still kind of a colony. It's snipping away the apron strings of the last vestiges of colonialism," he said.
"The office of the head of state should personify all the things that makes Canada important and individual and unique. And I don't feel that somebody from England does that."

Mandate of the Commissioner
The commissioner, who will operate independently from government, will focus on the following objectives:
- Carry out a public consultation to gather views and information
about the nature and impact of systemic racism on racialized immigrants,
Wolastoqiyik, Mi’gmaq, Peskotomuhkatiyik, other Indigenous populations,
Black, and people of colour as well as other minority populations in
New Brunswick. The Commissioner will equally engage with government
institutions, in particular, the education, health, social development
and justice sectors.
- Conduct a comprehensive review about the extent and scope of systemic racism in New Brunswick, including the government’s role in eliminating systemic racism both within provincial institutions and agencies and in the province generally.
Robert Tay-Burroughs is the senior policy advisor to the Commissioner
and is a doctoral researcher at the University of New Brunswick (Saint
John) studying viceregal officers and settler colonialism. A graduate
of Mount Allison University, University of Ottawa, and Middlebury
College, he is a former executive director of the New Brunswick

"Systemic racism commissioner Manju Varma said she and others from her office will attend the inquest.
The commission is also wrapping up meetings with a few people as part of its public consultations, said Varma. So far, she has met with about 50 organizations, done 55 one-on-one interviews and spoken on about 20 panels about her work. She's expected to issue a report in the fall.
Moore's death contributed to galvanizing public opinion that action had to be taken on systemic racism, she acknowledged."

Chantel Moore family lawyer announces lawsuit as coroner's inquest begins
Moore was fatally shot by police officer conducting a wellness check
About 80 people showed up for jury selection Monday at a coroner's inquest into the death of a young Indigenous woman in Edmundston that sparked a public outcry over systemic racism and the way police respond to people in mental distress.
Chantel Moore was from Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation in British Columbia. She was 26 when she was fatally shot early on June 4, 2020 outside her apartment on Canada Road by a police officer who'd been dispatched there to check on her well-being.
Outside the conference room, as prospective jurors were being called to another room for questioning, Moore family lawyer T.J. Burke told reporters he intends to file a civil suit Tuesday morning against the Edmundston police and the City of Edmundston.
"It's a suit for negligence," said Burke.
He said the police officer who killed Moore had trained other Edmundston officers on use of force. And he fell below that standard of care. He did not do certain things to preserve the life of Miss Moore."
The submission has already been prepared, said Burke, and that action is separate from the inquest, which is not meant to determine blame, but to uncover relevant facts and provide an opportunity for recommendations to prevent similar deaths in the future.

Under provincial legislation, which Burke described as "flawed" and "archaic," he and Moore's family have no official standing during the inquest process.
"The legislation here silences the family and the victim's voice in a way that is more direct," said Burke.
Instead, a prosecutor appointed by the coroner will ask all of the questions, to essentially determine whether Moore's death was a homicide or suicide, said Burke.
Burke was able to provide questions in advance. But "the coroner's office has no obligation to actually use any of those questions," he said.
"I think one thing we'll end up doing at the end of this is petitioning the government to make that change."
Crown prosecutors concluded about a year ago that Moore's death was the result of her actions, combined with being severely impaired by alcohol. No charges were laid against the officer because he was deemed to be reasonably defending himself.
Their report found the wellness check was ordered based on a call from Moore's ex-boyfriend, who received a message from her June 3, suggesting someone had been watching her sleep.
The police officer went up an exterior stairway to her apartment. Moore came out with a knife. He told her in French to drop it. She continued toward him. He fired on her while he was cornered on a third-floor balcony.

A police commission review was held last fall and found "insufficient evidence" that Const. Jeremy Son had done anything wrong.
Moore's mother said after that review that she still didn't understand how the fatal shooting could have happened and was still looking for accountability.
Burke said he hopes the inquest gives her some closure.
"Not only did Martha Martin lose her daughter to a police officer, she lost her son who was in custody in the corrections and corrections facility, helpless. So that's two significant losses that she's had in just a short period of time. You know, it doesn't it doesn't give her a lot of faith in the policing system or the justice system.
"Hopefully at the end of this week, it does provide her a little bit of encouragement and some light," he said.
She was expected to be one of the first witnesses at the inquest Monday afternoon.
"Hopefully something more productive can come from this tragedy," said St. Thomas University criminologist Michael Boudreau.
"Obviously, it never should have happened, but it has. And now we need to learn from it, because if not, this will happen again."
One thing that has already been implemented since Moore's death is the creation of a Serious Incident Response Team to independently investigate police actions in cases like this.
Another is an expansion of the use of body cameras by police.
Edmundston police Chief Alain Lang said last month that the force had started testing two models of cameras and planned to use the equipment for evidence gathering and officer accountability.
"That arguably is a step in the right direction," said Boudreau.
"That would have helped us to explain what actually went on that night."
He's interested to see whether the inquest delves into police accountability, training, and the appropriateness of them doing wellness checks.
"There's been a lot of discussion prior to this tragedy and since this tragedy that this is not something that the police are well equipped to do. … And I think some police would admit as much."
"So if they're going to continue to do these wellness checks, they need to bring along other specialists who know how to deal with people who are in mental health crises."
That would require more provincial funding, he said, to hire social workers and other experts.
"They can really help and assist and de-escalate these kinds of situations."
Public inquiry calls
First Nations chiefs called for a public inquiry into systemic racism after Moore's death and the death of Rodney Levi of Metepenagiag about a week later.
When the provincial government instead hired a commissioner to review racism against Indigenous people together with other racialized or minority populations, the Wolastoqey chiefs declined to participate in protest.
Systemic racism commissioner Manju Varma said she and others from her office will attend the inquest.
The commission is also wrapping up meetings with a few people as part of its public consultations, said Varma. So far, she has met with about 50 organizations, done 55 one-on-one interviews and spoken on about 20 panels about her work. She's expected to issue a report in the fall.
Moore's death contributed to galvanizing public opinion that action had to be taken on systemic racism, she acknowledged.

racism in September. After consultations, she will produce a final
report of recommendations in September of 2022. (Supplied by Government of New Brunswick)
It occurred on the heels of the George Floyd murder in the U.S., which touched off widespread Black Lives Matter demonstrations, and was swiftly followed by the Rodney Levi fatal shooting.
But people have long known about an overrepresentation of Black and Indigenous offenders in the prison system, she noted.
"This issue of systemic racism started way before these shootings."
Varma said she still has questions about how racism may have come into play in Moore's death, but she will try to "put them on the back burner" and just see how the inquest unfolds.
One thing she's interested in is the inquest process.
At the Rodney Levi inquest last fall, she noted, Levi's family had to "push" for indigenous representation on the jury and a smudging ceremony, which they felt were important to the outcome.
The inquest is expected to last four to five days. It's being held at the Delta Fredericton Hotel with coroner Emily Caissy presiding.

Thank you for reaching out to Ontario Premier Doug Ford.
As you may know, Writs of Election were issued on May 4, 2022, which
signals that the campaign period has begun. This means the Ontario
government has entered caretaker mode until the completion of the next
general election on June 2, 2022.
In certain instances, your inquiry will be forwarded to the
appropriate government official for review but please note that
responses may be deferred.
Rest assured that all correspondence is carefully read and given
proper consideration.
Thank you again for writing.
______
Merci d’avoir contacté le premier ministre de l’Ontario, Doug Ford.
Comme vous le savez sans doute, un décret de convocation des électeurs
et électrices à une élection provinciale a été émis le 4 mai 2022,
marquant le début de la campagne électorale. Par conséquent, le
gouvernement de l’Ontario est entré dans une période de transition
jusqu’à la tenue des prochaines élections générales, le 2 juin 2022.
Votre demande sera transmise à un représentant du gouvernement aux
fins d’examen. Toutefois, veuillez noter que dans certains cas, il
pourrait y avoir un délai avant qu’une réponse ne vous soit acheminée.
Soyez assurés que toutes les correspondances que nous recevons sont
lues et traitées attentivement. Nous vous remercions de nous avoir
écrit.

A royal visit at a time of reckoning: Will Prince Charles and Camilla connect with Canadians?
3-day tour kicks off Tuesday in St. John's, before the couple travels to Ottawa, N.W.T.
Preparations underway on eve of royal visit to Canada
Duration 2:01
Kyle Empringham doesn't follow the royals and wasn't initially aware there was a royal visit to Canada coming up this week.
Still, after he found out, the co-founder of The Starfish Canada, a group that supports young people in their environmental careers, saw potential for some "optimistic skepticism" about what might flow environmentally from the visit by Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, that kicks off Tuesday in St. John's.
Environmental issues are on the agenda during the three-day trip, including when Charles meets with local experts to discuss the impact of climate change in the Northwest Territories, and Indigenous-led efforts to address it.
Empringham, who co-founded Starfish as a 20-year-old in 2010, said he was glad to hear that Charles is visiting the North, and that he would be engaging with Indigenous communities.

kicks off Tuesday in St. John's. (Hannah McKay/The Associated Press)
"Then next thing I'd want to hear is … the actionable pieces; that it's not just a visit for a photo," Empringham said in an interview.
"I would be excited to hear that there are actionable items that are going to move forward, or maybe move forward quicker than what's comfortable. Those are the things that often we don't hear enough of."

What Prince Charles and Camilla say and do over the next three days will be under scrutiny, as the couple make their first visit to Canada in five years, carrying out the first official visit by a member of the Royal Family to the country since a greater societal reckoning with our past and our institutions has taken hold.
CBC readers have also told us they are interested in seeing how the royals will deal with current issues, such as Indigenous concerns, the environment and the relevance of the institution in the future — along with how Charles himself will handle all that.
Time to reflect
Underlying this, however, is also the extent to which Canadians spend much time even thinking about the monarchy.
"Honestly, I don't think they give it much of a thought," said Nathan Tidridge, vice-president of the Institute for the Study of the Crown in Canada.
"At moments like a royal visit or the Platinum Jubilee, I think it kind of bubbles to the surface. But typically, it's kind of a perennial conversation: Do we need the institution?"
But Canadians may be thinking more about it this week, and as attention focuses in early June on the Platinum Jubilee, marking Queen Elizabeth's 70 years as monarch.
"It's these kinds of markers that happen that cause people to reflect," said Tidridge.

"We're also at a very critical time, I think, in the world. We're talking about colonialism, we're talking about systemic racism, we're talking about all these really, really important issues and problems in our society. And the Crown, as that pre-eminent symbol, is implicated in them."
That's because the Crown is "reflecting our society," said Tidridge.
"The Crown is an inanimate object, right," he said. "Sometimes it's easy to just pick on the system, not talk about the society itself. This is an opportunity to do that."
'Showcase the evolution of our country'
This week's trip will take Charles and Camilla from St. John's to Ottawa and then to Yellowknife on Thursday.
Gov. Gen. Mary Simon has said she is looking forward to welcoming the couple.
"This visit is a chance for us to showcase the evolution of our country, our diverse and inclusive society, as well as the resilience of Indigenous communities," she said in a statement as the visit was announced.

Nicholas Kaizer, a 28-year-old high school teacher in Halifax who describes himself as pro-monarchy and an environmentalist, says he's excited at the prospect of the visit.
Kaizer is hoping "to see an honest reflection on the part of the Prince of Wales on the people he's meeting and the cultures he's experiencing and the legacy they are a witness to."
"I do not want the monarchy to exist in a time capsule; to pretend things are always fine and have been," he said.
"If Canada is going to move forward, and move forward with a monarchical system — and I think it should — that system needs to be honest about the baggage that it brings with it."
Others, like Tom Freda, co-founder of Citizens for a Canadian Republic, don't want Canada to keep its current connection with the Crown. His group wants to instead see the governor general evolve into the country's official head of state.
From Freda's perspective, it's hard to say what is at stake during this royal visit.

"I don't want to predict what Canadians' views will be at the end of it, but … I don't envy [Charles and Camilla]. Because Prince William and Kate got an unexpected negative reception when they went to the Caribbean," Freda said in an interview.
"That certainly was not in the cards. They were there to help shore up support for the monarchy and everywhere they went, there were demonstrations. So if that's going to happen here, I would say, as was the case with William and Kate, it would be damaging to the monarchy."
Whatever happens on the trip, Freda said, "every step of the way, it will be managed by the Canadian government and everything that they say will be approved of, if not written, by the Canadian government.
"Sometimes they go off script and we'll have to see how far Prince Charles goes with that."
Tidridge, who teaches high school history, civics and Indigenous studies in Waterdown, Ont., said he'll be listening closely to the speeches by Simon and Prince Charles throughout the visit.
"His speeches are vetted by the Government of Canada, but … I'll be interested in the language he chooses and the interactions between himself and Indigenous folks, and the environmental groups, and the military people he will be encountering on the tour," said Tidridge.
As closely as he'll be watching the visit, Tidridge isn't sure what its overall significance might ultimately be, particularly because of its duration.
"I wish that the tour was longer so that we could actually see … a significance develop," he said.
"It's such a whistlestop tour — as determined by the Government of Canada, not the Prince of Wales — that I worry it won't allow for … that kind of marinating that's needed; that time that's needed with the elders and Indigenous leaders for something of significance to happen."

From Empringham's perspective, quick sessions between Charles and whomever he's meeting could provide the beginning of a dialogue — but only that.
"A 15- to 20-minute meeting could be a start of a conversation, but it clearly can't be the end of it, or else there will probably be no action … that will be done," he said. "Other than a cool photo."
From his perspective, what's at stake here is the current state of the environment and the impact of any potential failure to act.
"I think what a lot of young people are attuned to is the IPCC reports that are getting more and more alarming as time goes on," he said. "What's at stake is inaction. I think that's the bluntest way I could put it."
While it's "cool to hear" Prince Charles will be talking about the environment while he's in Canada, Empringham sees the potential for apprehension about just what the ultimate impact might be.
"I think there's a big part of anyone who's been a part of this, even for five or 10 years, [who] would go: 'Oh yes, OK, great,' " Empringham said. But there would also be a sense of "we'll see what happens."
"You want something to happen, and you're hopeful," Empringham said, but there's an "optimistic skepticism, is almost the way I would put it."
"There's probably a little bit of trepidation that people would go into a meeting like that, not knowing if anything will actually come of it."

Prince Charles, Camilla depart St. John's as Day 1 of Canadian Royal Tour wraps up
St. John's is 1st stop in 3-day tour
Prince Charles and Camilla capped a whirlwind first stop on their three-day Canadian tour by pulling a couple of pints of beer in St. John's on Tuesday.
The royal couple visited the provincial legislature, the lieutenant-governor's residence and picturesque Quidi Vidi Village during a 4½-hour tour that encompassed themes from sombre to celebratory.
Charles and Camilla landed shortly before 1:30 p.m. NT, and headed to Confederation Building, which houses the provincial House of Assembly, where a crowd had gathered for the tour's opening ceremony. They greeted Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Premier Andrew Furey and others, and Charles participated in a military ceremony.
Afterward, the Stadacona Band of Maritime Forces Atlantic played military renditions of Newfoundland and Labrador folk tunes like Great Big Sea's Ordinary Day.
The welcome ceremony began with a prayer read in Innu-aimun by Elder Elizabeth Penashue before Inuk classical singer Deantha Edmunds sang Sons of Labrador, the anthem of Nunatsiavut, the ancestral homeland of the Labrador Inuit.
In his speech, Charles discussed Indigenous reconciliation, which is expected to be a focus of the tour.
"I know that our visit here this week comes at an important moment, with Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples across Canada committing to reflect honestly and openly on the past, and to forge a new relationship for the future."

In her speech, Gov. Gen. Mary Simon also emphasized reconciliation.
"I encourage you to speak to Indigenous peoples, to hear their stories, their successes and their solutions, and to encourage you to learn the truth of our history, the good and the bad," she said. "In this way we will promote healing, understanding and respect."
Innu Nation Grand Chief Etienne Rich, NunatuKavut President Todd Russell, Miawpukek First Nation Chief Mi'sel Joe and Qalipu First Nation Chief Brendan Mitchell also spoke with the royal couple, and were present for the welcome ceremony.
In his remarks, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reflected on the historical relationship between Canada and the monarchy.
"So much of the endurance and stability of our democracy is woven into our Westminster parliamentary system, our constitutional monarchy and the Crown," he said.
The ceremony also included remarks from Premier Andrew Furey and performances by Mi'kmaw musician Paul Pike, Newfoundland and Labrador folk band Rum Ragged and others.
Paying respects
Following the welcome event, Charles and Camilla headed to the Heart Garden at Government House, the lieutenant-governor's residence, to participate in a ceremony honouring Indigenous children who attended residential schools in Labrador and northern Newfoundland. The ceremony involved Indigenous leaders and performers, as well as the lieutenant-governor.

In her remarks, Foote said the heart garden at Government House is about "honouring memories, and planting dreams."
"People come here to reflect, but they also come to pay respect," she said.
Russell, president of the NunatuKavut community council, read a prayer during the ceremony.
"We acknowledge the lasting hurt and pain that many people, families and communities continue to experience. We take time today to reflect on what happened and why it happened," he said.
Some art and some beer
Inside Government House, Charles and Camilla met with a knitting circle from the Newfoundland Outport Nursing and Industrial Association and representatives of Campaign for Wool Canada.
Charles came face to face with his wool dopplegänger and a wool bust of the Queen, knit by Manitoban artist Rosemarie Péloquin.

Next, Charles and Camilla met with crafts producers at Quidi Vidi Artisan Studios — and even participated in demonstrations with artists before taking a walk around the harbour.
Accompanied by comedian Mark Critch and St. John's Mayor Danny Breen, among others, the royals ended their visit with a stop that will be familiar to many who have toured St. John's: Quidi Vidi Brewery.
Charles and Camilla learned how to pull a Quidi Vidi pint and sampled a beer alongside brewery owner Justin Fong, who called the visit a "huge honour."
Excitement for fans
Charles and Camilla mingled with hundreds of people in Quidi Vidi Village, some standing on picnic tables hoping to meet the couple.
Linda Hennebury, who lives in Quidi Vidi, pulled out all the stops for their arrival of the royals. She told CBC News her grandmother, who came from England, taught her about the Royal Family.
"Every time there's a visit of either one of the Royal Family I make a habit of making sure that I don't miss them," she said.

Hennebury held a picture of a young Queen Elizabeth II that she said survived a house fire. Hennebury said she showed the picture to the Queen during a previous visit. On Tuesday, she showed the picture to Charles while he mingled with the crowd at Quidi Vidi.
"Just remember she's your mother. Love her to pieces," she told the prince.
Hennebury also presented Charles with a painting of Quidi Vidi Village that she painted while recovering from breast cancer.
The visit was a thrill for three fans — Derrick Murray, Meghan Churchill and Sheryl Noel — who said they waited all day to meet the royals.

"[Camilla] liked my hat and Charles liked the jacket — well, it is British design," said Murray.
Churchill said she's been following the royals her whole life, but Tuesday was the first time she saw one in person.
"It was the most exciting moment," she said.
The royals departed St. John's shortly before 6 p.m.
Visit will 'mean a lot,' says prime minister
This tour marks the 19th time that Charles has visited Canada, and the first since a wave of republicanism swept the Caribbean earlier this year.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters earlier Tuesday he wasn't hearing significant anti-monarchy sentiment from Canadians and said he welcomed Charles and Camilla's visit.
"I know this will mean a lot to people here," said Trudeau. "As we look at challenges facing our democratic institutions around the world, I think we can be very pleased we have such a stable system."
But federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said he supports a request from Indigenous communities for an apology from the monarchy for its role in the residential school system.
Trudeau dodged a direct question about whether he believed the royals owed residential school survivors an apology, however, and instead spoke about how his government hoped the Prince and Duchess would use the trip as an opportunity to discuss Indigenous reconciliation and hear from "all sorts of Canadians from different backgrounds."

Pension plan error leaves man on hook for $7K
Close to 1,000 employees enrolled in wrong pension plan, says Public
Services Department
Joseph Tunney · CBC News · Posted: Mar 02, 2021 4:00 AM ET
Due to an error made by the federal department's Public Service Pay
Centre, about 1,000 employees have been paying into the wrong pension
plan and some must now pay thousands back to the government. (Ron
Ward/Canadian Press)
Casey Babb says when he opened a letter from Public Services and
Procurement Canada (PSPC) last Friday, he was shocked at what he read.
Due to an error made by the federal department's Public Service Pay
Centre, the Ottawa man has been paying into the wrong pension plan
group for nearly six years.
The result: he owes the government about $7,000 and was given a little
over a year to pay the sum back into the right pension plan.
"They've dropped this on me during a pandemic," he said. "And I mean,
even at the best of times, this would be totally outrageous."
PSAC members to receive $2,500 in compensation for Phoenix pay
system failures
Babb — currently on paternity leave with a newborn child — calls it a
"gut punch" and worries he's not the only one who will be receiving a
letter.
He believes the problem dates back to when he changed jobs, moving
from the Department of National Defence to Natural Resources Canada,
and how the federal government altered its pensions plans in 2013.
Casey Babb says having to pay back $7,000 in pension contributions is
a 'gut punch.' (Casey Babb)
Anyone who worked for the federal government before then would pay
more into their pension but retire sooner, Babb said.
Conversely, those who started work after 2013 pay less into their plan
each paycheque but need to work longer to receive full pension.
Although he worked for the federal government before 2013, the
government switched him into the newer pension plan when he changed
jobs, he said.
"So what that means is: for the last six years, I've been paying –
because of the Government of Canada pay centre – I've been paying too
little every paycheque into my pension," he said.
"It's been this cumulative drip over the last six years, every two
weeks, that they didn't catch and ... didn't address," he said.
About 1,000 enrolled in wrong plan: government
While Babb was given options for how to pay the $7,000 back, at most
he has 16 months unless he can prove financial hardship. He also
wasn't given the chance to continue paying into the same pension plan
and suspects he won't be afforded that option.
Babb said he caught the mistake years ago and flagged it to the
federal government. He said if the problem had been addressed sooner,
he wouldn't owe as much money.
"They [knew] that this is happening and I'm still paying into the
wrong pension," he said.
According to the PSPC, all employees with overdue pension
contributions from more than one pay period will be receiving letters.
They will have a month to respond and confirm their preferred method
for repayment.
"When Phoenix was first implemented in 2016, there were delays in
enrolling some employees into the Public Service Pension Plan (PSPP),
and unfortunately close to 1,000 employees were enrolled in the
incorrect group within the plan," said Jean-François Létourneau, a
spokesperson for the department.
"These errors are regrettable, and PSPC has taken steps to support
employees experiencing financial difficulty as a result."
Take responsibility, urges Babb
According to Létourneau, some of those affected may be entitled to
receive a refund in contributions if they contributed too much into
their pension. The department began sending letters to employees in
October and recovery has either started or been completed for 426
cases, he said.
Public employees protest Phoenix pay system four years after implementation
For Babb, the federal government should either excuse these debts or
at least come up with better repayment options.
"There needs to be some responsibility here," he said. "You can't just
start sending out dozens or hundreds or thousands of letters to
Canadians."

DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
Respondent on the cross-appeal

and
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Appellant on the cross-appeal
(and formerly Respondent)
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 order
if the judge made an error of law or palpable and overriding error in
determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and law
(Hospira at paras. 82-83).
[28] In the case at bar, the Judge substituted his own
assessment of Mr. Amos’ Claim for that of the Prothonotary. This Court
must look to the Prothonotary’s Order to determine whether the Judge
erred in law or made a palpable and overriding error in choosing to
interfere.
B. Did the Judge err in interfering with the
Prothonotary’s Order?
[29] The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following
paragraphs from the Crown’s submissions as the basis for striking the
Claim in its entirety without leave to amend:
17. Within the 96 paragraph Statement of Claim, the Plaintiff
addresses his complaint in paragraphs 14-24, inclusive. All but four
of those paragraphs are dedicated to an incident that occurred in 2006
in and around the legislature in New Brunswick. The jurisdiction of
the Federal Court does not extend to Her Majesty the Queen in right of
the Provinces. In any event, the Plaintiff hasn’t named the Province
or provincial actors as parties to this action. The incident alleged
does not give rise to a justiciable cause of action in this Court.
(…)
21. The few paragraphs that directly address the Defendant
provide no details as to the individuals involved or the location of
the alleged incidents or other details sufficient to allow the
Defendant to respond. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to
determine the causes of action the Plaintiff is attempting to advance.
A generous reading of the Statement of Claim allows the Defendant to
only speculate as to the true and/or intended cause of action. At
best, the Plaintiff’s action may possibly be summarized as: he
suspects he is barred from the House of Commons.
[footnotes omitted].
[30] The Judge determined that he could not strike the Claim
on the same jurisdictional basis as the Prothonotary. The Judge noted
that the Federal Court has jurisdiction over claims based on the
liability of Federal Crown servants like the RCMP and that the actors
who barred Mr. Amos from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004
included the RCMP (Federal Court Judgment at para. 23). In considering
the viability of these allegations de novo, the Judge identified
paragraph 14 of the Claim as containing “some precision” as it
identifies the date of the event and a RCMP officer acting as
Aide-de-Camp to the Lieutenant Governor (Federal Court Judgment at
para. 27).
[31] The Judge noted that the 2004 event could support a
cause of action in the tort of misfeasance in public office and
identified the elements of the tort as excerpted from Meigs v. Canada,
2013 FC 389, 431 F.T.R. 111:
[13] As in both the cases of Odhavji Estate v Woodhouse, 2003 SCC
69 [Odhavji] and Lewis v Canada, 2012 FC 1514 [Lewis], I must
determine whether the plaintiffs’ statement of claim pleads each
element of the alleged tort of misfeasance in public office:
a) The public officer must have engaged in deliberate and unlawful
conduct in his or her capacity as public officer;
b) The public officer must have been aware both that his or her
conduct was unlawful and that it was likely to harm the plaintiff; and
c) There must be an element of bad faith or dishonesty by the public
officer and knowledge of harm alone is insufficient to conclude that a
public officer acted in bad faith or dishonestly.
Odhavji, above, at paras 23, 24 and 28
(Federal Court Judgment at para. 28).
[32] The Judge determined that Mr. Amos disclosed sufficient
material facts to meet the elements of the tort of misfeasance in
public office because the actors, who barred him from the New
Brunswick legislature in 2004, including the RCMP, did so for
“political reasons” (Federal Court Judgment at para. 29).
[33] This Court’s discussion of the sufficiency of pleadings
in Merchant Law Group v. Canada (Revenue Agency), 2010 FCA 184, 321
D.L.R (4th) 301 is particularly apt:
…When pleading bad faith or abuse of power, it is not enough to
assert, baldly, conclusory phrases such as “deliberately or
negligently,” “callous disregard,” or “by fraud and theft did steal”.
“The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called
upon to pronounce is not an allegation of material fact”. Making bald,
conclusory allegations without any evidentiary foundation is an abuse
of process…
To this, I would add that the tort of misfeasance in public office
requires a particular state of mind of a public officer in carrying
out the impunged action, i.e., deliberate conduct which the public
officer knows to be inconsistent with the obligations of his or her
office. For this tort, particularization of the allegations is
mandatory. Rule 181 specifically requires particularization of
allegations of “breach of trust,” “wilful default,” “state of mind of
a person,” “malice” or “fraudulent intention.”
(at paras. 34-35, citations omitted).
[34] Applying the Housen standard of review to the
Prothonotary’s Order, we are of the view that the Judge interfered
absent a legal or palpable and overriding error.
[35] The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim
disclosed no reasonable claim and was fundamentally vexatious on the
basis of jurisdictional concerns and the absence of material facts to
ground a cause of action. Paragraph 14 of the Claim, which addresses
the 2004 event, pleads no material facts as to how the RCMP officer
engaged in deliberate and unlawful conduct, knew that his or her
conduct was unlawful and likely to harm Mr. Amos, and acted in bad
faith. While the Claim alleges elsewhere that Mr. Amos was barred from
the New Brunswick legislature for political and/or malicious reasons,
these allegations are not particularized and are directed against
non-federal actors, such as the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative
Assembly of New Brunswick and the Fredericton Police Force. As such,
the Judge erred in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the RCMP
barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable of
supporting a cause of action.
[36] In our view, the Claim is made up entirely of bare
allegations, devoid of any detail, such that it discloses no
reasonable cause of action within the jurisdiction of the Federal
Courts. Therefore, the Judge erred in interfering to set aside the
Prothonotary’s Order striking the claim in its entirety. Further, we
find that the Prothonotary made no error in denying leave to amend.
The deficiencies in Mr. Amos’ pleadings are so extensive such that
amendment could not cure them (see Collins at para. 26).
V. Conclusion
[37] For the foregoing reasons, we would allow the Crown’s
cross-appeal, with costs, setting aside the Federal Court Judgment,
dated January 25, 2016 and restoring the Prothonotary’s Order, dated
November 12, 2015, which struck Mr. Amos’ Claim in its entirety
without leave to amend.

Dear Taxpayer:
Thank you for your correspondence regarding the KPMG case, which
attracted media attention. Thank you also for your understanding
regarding the delay of this response.
As Minister of National Revenue, my goal is to make sure the Canada
Revenue Agency (CRA) offers services that are fair, helpful, and easy
to use. This continues to be my priority and my focus as I devote my
efforts to delivering tangible results to taxpayers.
Although I cannot comment on a specific case, I can give you the
following general information. Settlements are concluded independently
from the Minister of National Revenue and the Minister's Office to
ensure the integrity of the tax system. They involve an independent
process within the CRA, in collaboration with the Department of
Justice.
In tax disputes, there is limited flexibility on settlement amounts
because CRA tax disputes are subject to the legal principles set out
in the Income Tax Act. The CRA is bound by the principles of tax law
and the rules arising from Canadian tax legislation. For example, when
a tax dispute involves an amount of $50,000, the taxpayer and the CRA
can agree on a lesser amount only if the determination of this amount
is based in law.
Settlements can also resolve tax issues that are not before the Court.
These settlements are carried out through an agreement called "minutes
of settlement," which is signed by a CRA official and the taxpayer.
Because this agreement is not public, taxpayers may see the use of
settlements as a lack of transparency. This is why I have asked the
CRA to review its procedures to find ways it can ensure greater
transparency regarding why it enters into settlements. Taxpayers
expect the tax system to be fair and equitable, and the CRA works
continuously to make sure that it is.
The CRA remains committed to combatting tax evasion and aggressive tax
avoidance. Individuals who participate in illegal tax strategies must
face the consequences of their actions, and taxpayers expect nothing
less.
I appreciate the opportunity to respond to your concerns and trust the
information I have provided is helpful.
Sincerely,
The Honourable Diane Lebouthillier
Minister of National Revenue

Once again the wealthy get away with not paying their fair share of
taxes, but CRA is very quick to track down anybody who owes them $50.

Reply to @Lily O'Loughlin: I know of an elderly Lady who owed the CRA
past taxes.
If she paid the taxes she could not buy her medicine, the CRA rep
told her to pay the tax bill .
Bill Dixon
Reply to @Lily O'Loughlin: A buddy of mine is an investigator and
auditor with the CRA.
Years ago, they brought in a performance criterion based on the
number of closed files, as opposed to the value of recovered taxes. My
guess is that CRA leaders wanted to be able to brag about how many
files and investigations are successfully closed (e.g., "We
successfully recover tax in 97% of cases!", as opposed to "In the 97%
of cases we close, we recover 9% of money owed to the Govt of
Canada... because unfortunately the 3% of files we don't close are
whales that are worth 93% of the money owed... Oops.") [- this is a
purely fictitious scenario I just made up, but you see my point]
He's always been involved in investigating large criminal tax dodges
that take years to unravel and bring to a close. Consequently, he was
always been ranked quite low in year-end reviews, relative to his
colleagues who follow up on very small files and small amounts owed.
In his words, that system in CRA incentivizes auditors to vigorously
chase small fish and files, and ignore the big files and large amounts
that are exclusively the result of the illicit behaviour of the rich
and the accountants they employ to avoid paying tax

True but sometimes there are small fish with very sharp teeth that
can make the boss of the taxman have a panic attack and quit his fancy
job. Methinks the other little fish should Google my name along with
KPMG, CRA and IRS N'esy Pas?

Reply to @Bill Dixon: "In his words, that system in CRA incentivizes
auditors to vigorously chase small fish and files, and ignore the big
files and large amounts that are exclusively the result of the illicit
behaviour of the rich and the accountants they employ to avoid paying
tax."
BINGO
FYI The snobby accountants the rich employ call themelves
"Gatekeepers" and are always attached to powerful law firm just like
KPMG beancounters are,
Surf the net and you will see that I am a whistleblower against them

CRA signs secret settlement with wealthy KPMG clients involved in
offshore tax scheme
Watchdog group accuses the Liberals of covering up the KPMG affair
Harvey Cashore · CBC News · Posted: May 30, 2019 12:26 PM ET
The Canada Revenue Agency has made an out-of-court settlement with
wealthy KPMG clients caught using an offshore tax scheme that it
previously said was 'intended to deceive' tax authorities. (CBC)
The Canada Revenue Agency has once again made a secret out-of-court
settlement with wealthy KPMG clients caught using what the CRA itself
had alleged was a "grossly negligent" offshore "sham" set up to avoid
detection by tax authorities, CBC's The Fifth Estate and
Radio-Canada's Enquête have learned.
This, despite the Liberal government's vow to crack down on high
net-worth taxpayers who used the now-infamous Isle of Man scheme. The
scheme orchestrated by accounting giant KPMG enabled clients to dodge
tens of millions of dollars in taxes in Canada by making it look as if
multimillionaires had given away their fortunes to anonymous overseas
shell companies and get their investment income back as tax-free
gifts.
KPMG is a global network of accounting and auditing firms
headquartered out of the Netherlands and is one of the top firms in
Canada.
"Tax cheats can no longer hide," National Revenue Minister Diane
Lebouthillier promised in 2017.
Now, tax court documents obtained by CBC News/Radio-Canada show two
members of the Cooper family in Victoria, as well as the estate of the
late patriarch Peter Cooper, reached an out-of-court settlement on May
24 over their involvement in the scheme.
Details of the settlement and even minutes of the meetings discussing
it are under wraps. A CBC News/Radio-Canada reporter who showed up to
one such meeting this spring was asked to leave.
Journalists discovered references to the final settlement agreement
in tax court documents only by chance.
CRA cites privacy in keeping settlement details secret
The Canada Revenue Agency says strict privacy provisions of Canadian
tax law make it difficult to disclose minutes describing individual
taxpayer information.
The Isle of Man tax dodge had been active as far back as 1999 and,
according to documents filed in court by the CRA in 2015, had
"intended to deceive" federal regulators.
Still, significant details of the scheme remain a mystery, including
the role played by the KPMG's senior executives. With no public trial,
those details may continue to remain secret.
Toby Sanger, executive director of the advocacy group Canadians for
Tax Fairness, says the CRA should never have agreed to settle the
case.
"I think it's outrageous," he said. "We've had a lot of tough talk
and promises from this minister about how they will crack down on tax
evasion by the wealthy and corporations, but unfortunately we've seen
no evidence of this so far."
National Revenue Minister Diane Lebouthillier called out tax cheats in
2017 and stated her intention to clamp down on the KPMG scheme.
(Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)
Revenue Minister Diane Lebouthlier said in an email statement to The
Fifth Estate/Enquête that while she cannot comment on specific cases,
she finds the lack of transparency about settlements brokered by her
agency "problematic."
"I have instructed the CRA to review its processes to allow for more
transparency with respect to the reasons for which a settlement is
reached," she said.
KPMG took 15% cut of taxes dodged
One member of the Cooper family, Marshall Cooper, previously told The
Fifth Estate that he was unaware of Canadian tax laws when he
emigrated from South Africa in the mid-1990s and that it was KPMG that
came up with the offshore tax plan.
Documents show KPMG planned to take a 15 per cent cut of the taxes
dodged, including $300,000 from the Cooper family. Internal records
show the scheme was marketed across the country, with successful KPMG
sales agents and accountants referred to as product "champions."
In all, more than 20 wealthy families participated in the offshore scheme.
Two years ago, Lebouthillier issued a news release on her intention
to clamp down on the KPMG scheme, publicly stating that those involved
could even face criminal charges over possible "tax fraud."

KPMG tax 'sham' used by at least 25 wealthy Canadians, document says
•Tax cheats in KPMG Isle of Man avoidance scheme could face criminal
charges: minister
"The case of KPMG is before the courts right now, and we continue to
pursue action against KPMG," Lebouthillier said in 2017.
"We will see this to the end as Canadians have asked us to do."
She said at the time that her government took the matter "very seriously."
"Those who choose to participate in these schemes must face the
consequences of their actions," she said.
Yet more than two years after that pledge, participants in the KPMG
scheme, namely, members of the Cooper family, were offered a secret
out-of-court settlement.
In her statement to The Fifth Estate/Enquête this week, Lebouthillier
said the decision to settle was not hers to make and that she had
instructed the CRA to review its settlements to "allow for more
transparency."
'We will continue to make systemic changes': minister
To "ensure integrity of our tax system," Lebouthillier said,
out-of-court settlements are made by the CRA and the Department of
Justice "at arm's length" from the minister and the minister's office.
"Canadians deserve a fair and equitable tax system, and we will
continue to make systemic changes within the CRA to make sure that
this is the case," she said in her statement.

CBC Investigates
Canada Revenue offered amnesty to wealthy KPMG clients in offshore tax 'sham'
•How Canada got into bed with tax havens
CBC News/Radio-Canada first revealed four years ago that KPMG, one of
the largest accounting firms in Canada, with tens of millions in
federal contracts, had for years been running a massive offshore tax
dodge for wealthy clients it had kept hidden from federal
investigators.
The Trudeau government's previous tough talk on the so-called KPMG
sham had come after a document leaked to The Fifth Estate/Enquête
showed the CRA itself had offered a secret "no penalties" amnesty in
May 2015 to many of the other KPMG clients involved in the scheme.
The CRA offered to have them simply pay the back taxes owed — but
with the condition they not tell the public about the offer.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau vowed to do a 'better job of getting tax
avoiders and tax frauders' in 2017. (Jonathan Hayward/The Canadian
Press)
Stung by those revelations, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in
2017 that the government had learned a lesson from the KPMG affair and
promised to do a "better job of getting tax avoiders and tax
frauders."
Since then, the Liberal government vowed to make sure those kinds of
offshore tax dodges were in the past.
In fact, it was concerns over future KPMG court cases that prompted
the Liberal-dominated Commons finance committee to shut down its own
investigation into the embattled accounting firm back in 2016.
Documents had already began to emerge detailing the extent to which
KPMG was helping clients not only dodge taxes but also hide money from
potential creditors, including circumventing the Canadian Divorce Act
by "protecting" assets from ex-spouses.
•
CBC Investigates
KPMG promoted hiding money from wealthy clients' ex-spouses in offshore 'sham'
Lawyers for KPMG had argued that the ongoing finance committee
investigation could prejudice cases before the court.
Several KPMG executives had been named to testify in the spring of
2016, but Liberal MPs voted to shut down the inquiry, arguing that any
more testimony and documents should be produced in court and not in
Parliament.
Now, it appears that those future court cases cited as a reason for
shutting down the investigation might never materialize.
The Fifth Estate and Enquête also later revealed that in June 2016,
around the same time the Liberal MPs shut down their investigation
into the accounting giant, a former senior KPMG executive was
appointed to the Liberal Party's national board of directors.
"There is no reason why the finance committee shouldn't restart their
hearings," Canadians for Tax Fairness's Sanger said.
Settlements offer 'substantial savings to the public'
Sanger said it all seems like a Liberal "coverup" to close down the
KPMG investigation.
Canadians still do not know who were the key people at KPMG involved
in running the investigation, for example, how high up it went within
the organization, or all the names of the wealthy clients who
participated.
Liberal MPs halted a parliamentary finance committee investigation in
2016 after KPMG argued the investigation could prejudice court cases.
Now, it looks like those court cases might never happen. (CBC)
Max Weder, the lawyer for the wealthy Cooper family, said he "can't
comment on the settlement."
Documents show the family paid virtually no tax over a span of eight
years — and even obtained federal and provincial tax credits — despite
receiving nearly $6 million from an offshore company worth $26 million
that KPMG helped set up.
KPMG has always maintained the scheme was legal. The firm's lawyers
claimed any money the Coopers received were gifts and therefore
non-taxable. Nevertheless, KPMG now says it would not set up this type
of offshore structure anymore.
For its part, the CRA said that the settlement was made in accordance
with the law and is "supported by the facts of this particular case."
The agency also said it "maximized revenue" by making a decision to
settle out of court, instead of facing an uncertain ruling in tax
court.
"There is generally substantial savings to the public and a benefit
to the justice system when cases are resolved through a settlement," a
CRA spokesperson said in a statement.

Subject: Pierre Poilievre Just Cancelled Ed Fast | Pierre Poilièvre
vient de cancel Ed Fast
To: david.raymond.amos333@gmail.
« Le français suivra »
David,
Pierre Poilievre just cancelled Ed Fast.
Until yesterday, Ed was the party’s finance critic. Ed has been doing
a fantastic job of holding the Liberals to account for their terrible
economic policy.
Pierre, on the other hand, has been touting some pretty sketchy stuff.
Pierre says that investing in cryptocurrency is a good way to opt out
of inflation, even though bitcoin is looking more and more like a fast
way to lose your life savings.
Pierre also says politicians should stop telling the Bank of Canada
what to do, but then promised to fire the head of the Bank of Canada
because he’s not doing what Pierre thinks he should do, which looks an
awful lot like a politician telling the Bank of Canada what to do.
Out of concern for the Party and the country, Ed spoke out about the
legitimate concerns he has with Pierre’s economic rhetoric.
Pierre didn’t like that. So, he pressured his allies in the caucus to
try to put a muzzle on Ed.
Ed is the Dean of the BC Caucus, got the Canada European Trade
agreement ratified, and has been one of the stalwarts of our Party.
He got pushed out because he spoke his mind. Pierre is so sure he’s
going to win this leadership race that he’s already punishing anyone
who doesn’t agree with him.
Being a bully isn’t leadership.
Fortunately, Party members have another choice. Muzzles and bully
tactics aren’t Jean Charest’s style because he’s a serious and
credible leader.
We must stop Pierre from tearing the Party apart, and Jean Charest is
the only candidate who can do that.
The best way you can show your support for Ed is by buying a
membership (https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) for Jean Charest. Ed believes Jean is the serious, thoughtful leader
our Party and our country needs right now. I do too.
If you aren’t 100% sure your membership is current and you’re eligible
to vote tap here
(https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) .
I need you to buy a membership today. I also need you to make sure
that your friends and family are signed up to vote. Visit
jeancharest.ca (https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) to sign up and purchase your membership today!
The future of our party may very well depend on you.
Sincerely,
Tamara Kronis
Conservative Party of Canada Candidate of Record, Nanaimo-Ladysmith
Director, Strategic Outreach and Communications, JC Campaign for Leader
P.S. The CPC cannot go backwards. We must move forward and bring big
ideas and policies back to our conservative movement. Jean Charest is
the only candidate proposing serious leadership on issues that matter
to Canadians. Sign up
(https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) to support our campaign today if you want a credible leader who can
beat Justin Trudeau.
David,
Pierre Poilièvre vient de cancel Ed Fast.
Jusqu'à hier, Ed était le porte-parole du parti en matière de
finances. Ed a fait un travail fantastique pour obliger les libéraux à
rendre compte de leur terrible politique économique.
Pierre, d'autre part, a vanté des trucs assez sommaires.
Pierre dit qu'investir dans la crypto-monnaie est un bon moyen de se
retirer de l'inflation même si le Bitcoin ressemble de plus en plus à
un moyen direct pour perdre vos économies.
Pierre dit également que les politiciens devraient cesser de dire à la
Banque du Canada quoi faire, mais a ensuite promis de congédier le
gouverneur de la Banque du Canada parce qu'il ne fait pas ce que
Pierre pense qu'il devrait faire, ce qui ressemble énormément à un
politicien disant à la Banque de Canada quoi faire.
Par souci pour le Parti et le pays, Ed a parlé des préoccupations
légitimes qu'il a avec la rhétorique économique de Pierre.
Pierre n'aimait pas ça. Alors, il a fait pression sur ses alliés du
caucus pour essayer de museler Ed.
Ed est le doyen du caucus de la Colombie-Britannique, a fait ratifier
l'accord commercial Canada-Europe et a été l'un des piliers de notre
parti.
Il a été expulsé parce qu'il avait dit ce qu'il pensait. Pierre est
tellement sûr qu'il va gagner cette course à la chefferie qu'il punit
déjà tous ceux qui ne sont pas d'accord avec lui.
Être un tyran n'est pas du leadership.
Heureusement, les membres du Parti ont un autre choix. Les muselières
et les tactiques d'intimidation ne sont pas le style de Jean Charest
parce que c'est un leader sérieux et crédible.
Il faut empêcher Pierre de déchirer le Parti, et Jean Charest est le
seul candidat qui peut le faire.
La meilleure façon de montrer votre soutien à Ed est d'acheter une
adhésion (https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) à Jean Charest. Ed pense que Jean est le leader sérieux et réfléchi
dont notre Parti et notre pays ont besoin en ce moment. Moi aussi.
Si vous n'êtes pas sûr à 100% que votre adhésion est à jour et que
vous avez le droit de voter, appuyez ici

L'avenir de notre parti peut très bien dépendre de vous.
Sincèrement,

> Je ne crois pas que les députés devraient s'ingérer dans la

>
> Et garder la Banque du Canada indépendante et à l'écart de l'ingérence

>
> Alors, j'ai parlé.
>
> Puis ils sont venus après moi.

> « Eille, ferme-là. »

>>> Those efforts appear to have failed — the only "so con" candidate

>>>
>>> In a social media post, Abraham's campaign said the candidate was told
>>> Sunday he has been "deemed ineligible" by the party.
>>>
>>> Abraham has criticized Conservative MPs for failing to stop Bill C-4,
>>> the Liberal government's ban on conversion therapy. He has also called

>>> "Grant has responded to the party with a communication asking for a

>>> > “The executive power in each province is vested in the Lieutenant

Subject: Pierre Poilievre Just Cancelled Ed Fast | Pierre Poilièvre
vient de cancel Ed Fast
To: david.raymond.amos333@gmail.
« Le français suivra »
David,
Pierre Poilievre just cancelled Ed Fast.
Until yesterday, Ed was the party’s finance critic. Ed has been doing
a fantastic job of holding the Liberals to account for their terrible
economic policy.
Pierre, on the other hand, has been touting some pretty sketchy stuff.
Pierre says that investing in cryptocurrency is a good way to opt out
of inflation, even though bitcoin is looking more and more like a fast
way to lose your life savings.
Pierre also says politicians should stop telling the Bank of Canada
what to do, but then promised to fire the head of the Bank of Canada
because he’s not doing what Pierre thinks he should do, which looks an
awful lot like a politician telling the Bank of Canada what to do.
Out of concern for the Party and the country, Ed spoke out about the
legitimate concerns he has with Pierre’s economic rhetoric.
Pierre didn’t like that. So, he pressured his allies in the caucus to
try to put a muzzle on Ed.
Ed is the Dean of the BC Caucus, got the Canada European Trade
agreement ratified, and has been one of the stalwarts of our Party.
He got pushed out because he spoke his mind. Pierre is so sure he’s
going to win this leadership race that he’s already punishing anyone
who doesn’t agree with him.
Being a bully isn’t leadership.
Fortunately, Party members have another choice. Muzzles and bully
tactics aren’t Jean Charest’s style because he’s a serious and
credible leader.
We must stop Pierre from tearing the Party apart, and Jean Charest is
the only candidate who can do that.
The best way you can show your support for Ed is by buying a
membership (https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) for Jean Charest. Ed believes Jean is the serious, thoughtful leader
our Party and our country needs right now. I do too.
If you aren’t 100% sure your membership is current and you’re eligible
to vote tap here
(https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) .
I need you to buy a membership today. I also need you to make sure
that your friends and family are signed up to vote. Visit
jeancharest.ca (https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) to sign up and purchase your membership today!
The future of our party may very well depend on you.
Sincerely,
Tamara Kronis
Conservative Party of Canada Candidate of Record, Nanaimo-Ladysmith
Director, Strategic Outreach and Communications, JC Campaign for Leader
P.S. The CPC cannot go backwards. We must move forward and bring big
ideas and policies back to our conservative movement. Jean Charest is
the only candidate proposing serious leadership on issues that matter
to Canadians. Sign up
(https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) to support our campaign today if you want a credible leader who can
beat Justin Trudeau.
David,
Pierre Poilièvre vient de cancel Ed Fast.
Jusqu'à hier, Ed était le porte-parole du parti en matière de
finances. Ed a fait un travail fantastique pour obliger les libéraux à
rendre compte de leur terrible politique économique.
Pierre, d'autre part, a vanté des trucs assez sommaires.
Pierre dit qu'investir dans la crypto-monnaie est un bon moyen de se
retirer de l'inflation même si le Bitcoin ressemble de plus en plus à
un moyen direct pour perdre vos économies.
Pierre dit également que les politiciens devraient cesser de dire à la
Banque du Canada quoi faire, mais a ensuite promis de congédier le
gouverneur de la Banque du Canada parce qu'il ne fait pas ce que
Pierre pense qu'il devrait faire, ce qui ressemble énormément à un
politicien disant à la Banque de Canada quoi faire.
Par souci pour le Parti et le pays, Ed a parlé des préoccupations
légitimes qu'il a avec la rhétorique économique de Pierre.
Pierre n'aimait pas ça. Alors, il a fait pression sur ses alliés du
caucus pour essayer de museler Ed.
Ed est le doyen du caucus de la Colombie-Britannique, a fait ratifier
l'accord commercial Canada-Europe et a été l'un des piliers de notre
parti.
Il a été expulsé parce qu'il avait dit ce qu'il pensait. Pierre est
tellement sûr qu'il va gagner cette course à la chefferie qu'il punit
déjà tous ceux qui ne sont pas d'accord avec lui.
Être un tyran n'est pas du leadership.
Heureusement, les membres du Parti ont un autre choix. Les muselières
et les tactiques d'intimidation ne sont pas le style de Jean Charest
parce que c'est un leader sérieux et crédible.
Il faut empêcher Pierre de déchirer le Parti, et Jean Charest est le
seul candidat qui peut le faire.
La meilleure façon de montrer votre soutien à Ed est d'acheter une
adhésion (https://d2y0PW04.na1.
) à Jean Charest. Ed pense que Jean est le leader sérieux et réfléchi
dont notre Parti et notre pays ont besoin en ce moment. Moi aussi.
Si vous n'êtes pas sûr à 100% que votre adhésion est à jour et que
vous avez le droit de voter, appuyez ici

L'avenir de notre parti peut très bien dépendre de vous.
Sincèrement,

>>> Fonseca said the People's Party's relative success in the last federal

>>> > HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>> >
>>> > Defendant
>>> >
>>> > STATEMENT OF CLAIM
>>> >
>>> > The Parties
>>> >
>>> > 1. HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN (Crown) is Elizabeth II, the Queen of
>>> > England, the Protector of the Faith of the Church of England, the
>>> > longest reigning monarch of the United Kingdom and one of the
>>> > wealthiest persons in the world. Canada pays homage to the Queen
>>> > because she remained the Head of State and the Chief Executive Officer
>>> > of Canada after the Canada Act 1982 (U.K.) 1982, c. 11 came into force
>>> > on April 17, 1982. The standing of the Queen in Canada was explained
>>> > within the 2002 Annual Report FORM 18-K filed by Canada with the
>>> > United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It states as
>>> > follows:
>>> >
>>> > “The executive power of the federal Government is vested in the
>>> > Queen, represented by the Governor General, whose powers are exercised
>>> > on the advice of the federal Cabinet, which is responsible to the
>>> > House of Commons. The legislative branch at the federal level,
>>> > Parliament, consists of the Crown, the Senate and the House of
>>> > Commons.”
>>> >
>>> > “The executive power in each province is vested in the Lieutenant
>>> > Governor, appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the
>>> > federal Cabinet. The Lieutenant Governor’s powers are exercised on the
>>> > advice of the provincial cabinet, which is responsible to the
>>> > legislative assembly. Each provincial legislature is composed of a
>>> > Lieutenant Governor and a legislative assembly made up of members
>>> > elected for a period of five years.”
>>> >
>>> > 2. Her Majesty the Queen is the named defendant pursuant to
>>> > sections 23(1) and 36 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act. Some
>>> > of the state actors whose duties and actions are at issue in this
>>> > action are the Prime Minister, Premiers, Governor General, Lieutenant
>>> > Governors, members of the Canadian Forces (CF), and Royal Canadian
>>> > Mounted Police (RCMP), federal and provincial Ministers of Public
>>> > Safety, Ministers of Justice, Ministers of Finance, Speakers, Clerks,
>>> > Sergeants-at-Arms and any other person acting as Aide-de-Camp
>>> > providing security within and around the House of Commons, the
>>> > legislative assemblies or acting as security for other federal,
>>> > provincial and municipal properties.
>>> >
>>> > 3. Her Majesty the Queen’s servants the RCMP whose mandate is to
>>> > serve and protect Canadian citizens and assist in the security of
>>> > parliamentary properties and the protection of public officials should
>>> > not deny a correspondence from a former Deputy Prime Minister who was
>>> > appointed to be Canada’s first Minister of Public Safety in order to
>>> > oversee the RCMP and their cohorts. The letter that helped to raise
>>> > the ire of a fellow Canadian citizen who had never voted in his life
>>> > to run for public office four times thus far is quoted as follows:
>>> >
>>> > “Mr. David R. Amos
>>> > Jan 3rd, 2004
>>> > 153Alvin Avenue
>>> > Milton, MA U.S.A. 02186
>>> >
>>> > Dear Mr. Amos
>>> >
>>> > Thank you for your letter of November 19th, 2003, addressed to
>>> > my predecessor, the Honourble Wayne Easter, regarding
>>> > your safety.
>>> > I apologize for the delay in responding.
>>> >
>>> > If you have any concerns about your personal safety, I can only
>>> > suggest that you contact the police of local
>>> > jurisdiction. In addition, any
>>> > evidence of criminal activity should be brought to
>>> > their attention since the
>>> > police are in the best position to evaluate the
>>> > information and take action
>>> > as deemed appropriate.
>>> >
>>> > I trust that this information is satisfactory.
>>> >
>>> > Yours
>>> > sincerely
>>> >
>>> > A. Anne McLellan”
>>> >
>>> > 4. DAVID RAYMOND AMOS (Plaintiff), a Canadian Citizen and the
>>> > first Chief of the Amos Clan, was born in Sackville, New Brunswick
>>> > (NB) on July 17th, 1952.
>>> >
>>> > 5. The Plaintiff claims standing in this action as a citizen
>>> > whose human rights and democratic interests are to be protected by due
>>> > performance of the obligations of Canada’s public officials who are
>>> > either elected or appointed and all servants of the Crown whose
>>> > mandate is to secure the public safety, protect public interests and
>>> > to uphold and enforce the rule of law. The Crown affirms his right to
>>> > seek relief for offences to his rights under section 24(1) of the
>>> > Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Charter). Paragraphs 6 to 13
>>> > explain the delay in bringing this action before Federal Court and
>>> > paragraphs 25 to 88 explain this matter.
>>> >
>>> > 6. The Plaintiff states that pursuant to the democratic rights
>>> > found in Section 3 of the Charter he was a candidate in the elections
>>> > of the membership of the 38th and 39th Parliaments in the House of
>>> > Commons and a candidate in the elections of the memberships of the
>>> > legislative assemblies in Nova Scotia (NS) and NB in 2006.
>>> >
>>> > 7. The Plaintiff states that if he is successful in finding a
>>> > Chartered Accountant to audit his records as per the rules of
>>> > Elections Canada, he will attempt to become a candidate in the
>>> > election of the membership of the 42nd Parliament.
>>> >
>>> > 8. The Plaintiff states that beginning in January of 2002, he
>>> > made many members of the RCMP and many members of the corporate media
>>> > including employees of a Crown Corporation, the Canadian Broadcasting
>>> > Corporation (CBC) well aware of the reason why he planned to return to
>>> > Canada and become a candidate in the next federal election. In May of
>>> > 2004, all members seated in the 37th Parliament before the writ was
>>> > dropped for the election of the 38th Parliament and several members of
>>> > the legislative assemblies of NB and Newfoundland and Labrador (NL)
>>> > knew the reason is the ongoing rampant public corruption. Evidence of
>>> > the Plaintiff’s concerns can be found within his documents that the
>>> > Office of the Governor General acknowledged were in its possession ten
>>> > years ago before the Speech from the Throne in 2004. The Governor
>>> > General’s letter is as follows:
>>> >
>>> >
>>> > “September 11th, 2004
>>> > Dear Mr. Amos,
>>> >
>>> > On behalf of Her Excellency the Right Honourable Adrienne
>>> > Clarkson,
>>> > I acknowledge receipt of two sets of documents and CD
>>> > regarding corruption,
