Around The Block

Around the Block is Saint John’s community newspaper, published six times annually by the Saint John Human Development Council with principal sponsorship from the City of Saint John. Since the first issue in 2008 ATB has been the voice of our priority neighbourhoods, celebrating their good news, providing information, and offering advocacy. These communities often send in stories written by the residents themselves. This newspaper is theirs; we encourage them to write in their own voices. You will also read stories from the many partners who help support our neighbourhoods with their programs, and special election inserts encouraging citizen participation.

Documentary celebrates Saint John woman's decades of anti-poverty work

Juanita Black of Crescent Valley subject of short film

Juanita Black moved to Crescent Valley in 1979, and a community garden behind her house is just one example of how she made the north-end neighbourhood a home for herself and others.

Black is the subject of a new documentary called 'Perseverance: The Juanita Black Story,' written and produced by Kate Wallace and filmed and edited by Jordan Mattie.

It tells the story of how Black, a person who lived in poverty and received income assistance, lifted herself out of that situation through community involvement and nearly five decades of giving back. 

"Once you start doing a little bit of volunteering or going to a meeting and seeing people, they all come together," Black told Information Morning Saint John.


Black described the neighbourhood she lived in before moving to Crescent Valley as being a little rough around the edges in the early days. She said she had no hot water and didn't have a fire escape.

"We didn't work together, we weren't there helping each other out," she said.

Black said she learned about community involvement at a young age from her mother, who would volunteer at events and take Black with her.

In 2008, she took a course called Power-Up, a class that taught women how to help themselves and others. From there, Black started volunteering for a community newsletter called Around the Block. 

This led to her becoming the newsletter's coordinator, the first paid job that would transition her off income assistance. 

Black was also one of the founding members of the Crescent Valley community garden, and for 12 years she sat as an original board member of the Economic and Social Inclusion Corporation to reduce poverty, which also had members like Derek Oland of Moosehead Breweries.

Black still lives in Crescent Valley, and she still loves being part of the community. She said last weekend she made French toast for everyone in her building.

"It shows people that I take pride in where I live."

Behind the scenes 

Kate Wallace was first contacted about the documentary idea last summer.

An ad hoc committee made up of community activists and government representatives wanted to make a video celebrating Black's achievements. They already had an inventory of all her volunteer work, her letters to the editors, and her awards.

"I think it ran to something like seven or eight pages," Wallace told Information Morning Saint John


Wallace and Mattie had an abundance of material to work with - Wallace said Black has a filing cabinet filled with every clipping, every letter, and every award and acknowledgement she's ever received.

Wallace said the filmmakers wanted to feature essential voices in the documentary. 

For example, Kaitlyn LeBlanc, the 2021 recipient of the Juanita Black Bursary, which helps a student from the Crescent Valley neighbourhood pursue a post-secondary education. Brenda Murphy, the long-time Saint John community activist and current lieutenant-governor of New Brunswick, was also interviewed.

Once the documentary was released, Black said the comments and messages started flooding in, including from people she knew in high school, like her guidance counsellor Cheryl Robertson.

You don't always know what impact you have

After Robertson saw the documentary about Black, she wanted to call her. 

Robertson had only seen Black a few times in the years since she was her guidance counsellor at Simonds High School in 1974. 

"I remember quite a bit about Juanita back in those days, and that's why I wanted to call her, because I felt so proud of her and her achievements and her journey, which has been challenging," Robertson told CBC News.

Black was the student council president in her graduating year at Simonds, as well as the chief of the student police, and she frequently spent time in the guidance counsellor resource area.

In a yearbook from 1974 that Robertson dug out of her basement, an entry about Black gives her the nickname 'Moose' and says she wanted to work with children.

During their conversation on the phone, Robertson, who left Simonds in 1982 to work at the New Brunswick Community College, said Black told her she was one of the people who helped her stay in high school. 

"That was very nice to hear," she said. "You don't always know what impact you have."

"It's pretty special," she said. "That was my role, was to listen to the concerns of students and try to help them sort through their difficulties and encourage them and provide whatever support you could."

Saint John newspaper folds after 15 years serving lower-income neighbourhoods

Non-profit that published paper says it wants to use the city money to collect data instead

Juanita Black has a humble demeanour as she recalls the early days of starting her local newspaper.

But as she thumbs through the first and last editions, her smile betrays the facade that this was a simple endeavour.

"It's changed my life, this little newsletter," she said.

"It's just like the engine that could, and we did. And I think a lot of people are proud of it."

WATCH | Former editor Juanita Black on the newspaper's loyal following:
 

After 15 years, this small community newspaper in Saint John is closing

Duration 2:00
Around the Block served the five lowest-income neighbourhoods in Saint John and focused on good news stories in the community.

Black created the newspaper Around the Block in 2008 and was its original editor. Each edition saw 6,000 copies delivered.

The paper featured about 20 pages of stories about local charities, school updates, events, obituaries, poetry, and a fresh fruit and vegetable giveaway contest. There were also advertisements from local businesses and politicians.

Until this month, it served Saint John's five priority neighbourhoods that see the lowest levels of education and highest poverty rates in the city.

 Around The BlockAround the Block had an annual budget of about $20,000, which the city provided to the Human Development Council, which published the newspaper. (Graham Thompson/CBC)

It was published in hard copy every other month, for a total of 93 editions, by the Human Development Council with city funding.

Deputy Mayor John MacKenzie said the Human Development Council asked the city to shift funding from the newspaper to the group's data collection efforts.

"The city had no input into what was going to happen with the newspaper, nor did we say there wasn't going to be funding or anything like that," Mackenzie said.

He said there was a discussion with the Human Development Council that led to the shift in funding, but the city had no input in the decision.

Randy Hatfield, the Human Development Council executive director, said beyond the roughly $20,000 annual budget to pay staff, the business model used ad revenue and business sponsorship to cover delivery.

"And that no longer works," Hatfield said. "We're not immune in the community sector from general change in funding models and business models in media."

Randy Hatfield Randy Hatfield, executive director of the Human Development Council, says the print funding model wasn't working and it was a challenge to keep up the paper. (Graham Thompson/CBC)

He added that it was difficult to quantify the newspaper's influence in order to justify the funding.

"I can tell you how many issues were produced, I can't tell you how that filtered through into the community level," Hatfield said.

Funding from the city came on an annual basis, which was difficult to manage, he said.

Last year, the money came late so the newspaper had to start out the year without money, he said.

"It was just becoming a drag on our revenues to sustain it."

Times are changing, founder says

Black said she started the paper to highlight good news stories in the neighbourhoods Around the Block served, which were Crescent Valley, the old north end, lower west side, Waterloo Village and the south end.

It was a community newspaper that brought the community together, she said and catered to a demographic that enjoyed reading a physical print copy instead of a virtual paper.

"It's sad, and I'm sad, but times are changing, I think," Black said.

"Media's not the same as it used to be, print media's not the same as it used to be."

Her proudest moment was when Prince Charles and Camilla visited town in 2012, and Black later sent them a copy of the newspaper's coverage on the royal visit.

"Honest to god, they answered us back," she said, explaining that she received a note from the royals saying that her newspaper had been received.

"They can't say the paper hasn't been viewed, because it's been viewed from the top right down."  

Funding for data collection

Hatfield said the newspaper's end is a natural progression, but noted that the priority neighbourhoods have "strengthened" since 2008.

Most now have community centres and newsletters of their own, he said.

Now, he said, city money that previously went to Around the Block will be used for a community data portal to gather statistics for each neighbourhood on topics such as food insecurity and food bank use.  

Ogden said he wasn't a part of the decision to shift the funding, but he always placed ads with Around the Blocak and would write articles for them when asked.

Information is important for vulnerable communities, he said, and the newspaper was trying to break down barriers.

A neighbourhood in Saint John Funding that previously went to the paper will now be used for data collection in the five priority neighbourhoods, Hatfield says. (Graham Thompson/CBC)

"This was a way for Saint John to keep in touch with itself."

The final edition features pages of contributors and advertisers saying how much the paper meant to them and the community.

Black said the paper couldn't simply end without thanking its readers.

"We needed that final finish line," she said, "We needed to say goodbye, and this issue is saying goodbye."

Journalists are too politically biased these days to be arbiters of truth. Look at marijuana, now that it's been legalized, we hear nothing negative about it. We're meant to believe that it's all just sunshine and roses and not a negative at all.

Reply to @Jebidoah Shylah: I don't mean to burst your bubble but journalists were too politically biased

Methinks you should watch that old movie Citizen Kane or Network from the seventies or Wag the Dog etc etc etc Sometimes fiction reveals the awful truth of it all However the TRUTH is stranger than fiction N'esy Pas?

Our supposed impartial public taxpayer funded broadcaster is a prime example of everything that is wrong with journalism today. Say anything in favour of Christianity or against drugs like marijuana and they often don't even allow it to be printed.

 Many of the problems with journalism has to do with the cost of producing quality journalism...because of this cost, it's left to the wealthy and/or VERY wealthy to help finance it. The problem originates at that point, because many (emphatically NOT all) of those paying the bills feel they have some sort of "right" to determine "what" that news is; if it suits their viewpoint and , if it doesn't, how they can jury-rig it so that it does. A classic case in point is the Irving chain of newspapers which have handed off all or almost al of their news and editorial writing (it surely cannot still be referred to as journalism!) to the right wing Postmedia network. But the interesting thing is this happened a lot in past decades and even past centuries...yellow journalism is one of the terms coined in another time when free wheeling writers wrote inflammatory (often scurrilous, slanderous) articles about any who disagreed with them and/or their owners! The problem accelerated a great deal in the last 30 years when many national award-winning outlets had to close shop due to high costs.
It comes down to this: a society gets the news, and governments, it deserves. If the public wants better news and news reporting and news editorials, then they must have the guts to demand it. Having or expecting government to correct things only exacerbates the problem; replacing a bad situation with an even worse one. "The one who pays the piper, calls the tune" couldn't be more appropriate!

Between CBC and their pro government slant, and the current government handing out $600 million to selected media outlets, it's difficult to put trust in these companies.

 David Raymond Amos Versus The Crown T-1557-15



                      Court File No. T-1557-15

FEDERAL COURT

BETWEEN:
DAVID RAYMOND AMOS

                           Plaintiff
and

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.”

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange arrested, U.K. police say

Hero or Villain: The Prosecution of Julian Assange | Four Corners
113,134 views
ABC News (Australia)
Published on Jul 22, 2019
Julian Assange is one of the most influential figures to emerge this
century. The Australian born founder of WikiLeaks has harnessed the
technology of the digital age to unleash an information war against
governments and corporations.

WikiLeaks has collaborated with anonymous sources to release highly
classified and often deeply embarrassing information to the world.

The organisation exploded onto the world stage in 2010 when it began
publishing a series of spectacular leaks laying bare the conduct of
the United States. At the centre of it all was Julian Assange.

The leaks sparked ferocious debate over the right to know and the
right to keep secrets.

Now Julian Assange is in the fight of his life. In April this year he
was dragged, protesting, from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, nearly
seven years after seeking diplomatic protection.

He is facing extradition to the United States on espionage charges
stemming from the spectacular 2010 leaks by Private Chelsea Manning.

Everyone has an opinion about Julian Assange, but now you will hear
from those who have been on the inside.

Four Corners investigates the prosecution of Julian Assange in key
interviews with those at the heart of WikiLeaks and those who have
sought to bring him to US justice. These insider accounts give
powerful insights into how these momentous events have unfolded.

>> Fredericton, New Brunswick, December 23, 2015
>>
>> PRESENT:        The Honourable Mr. Justice Bell
>>
>> BETWEEN:
>>
>> DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
>>
>> Plaintiff
>>
>> and
>>
>> HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
>>
>> Defendant
>>
>> ORDER
>>
>> (Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
>> December 14, 2015)
>>
>> The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
>> the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
>> 12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
>> in its entirety.
>>
>> At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
>> letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
>> capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal).  In that letter
>> he stated:
>>
>> As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
>> work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
>> You are your brother’s keeper.
>>
>> Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
>> colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
>> expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
>> people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
>> Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
>> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
>> former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
>> Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
>> Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>> Police.
>>
>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
>> hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
>> Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
>> [1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
>> allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
>> requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
>>
>>
>> AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
>> the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion.  There
>> is no order as to costs.
>>
>> “B. Richard Bell”
>> Judge

>>
>> Below after the CBC article about your concerns (I made one comment
>> already) you will find the text of just two of many emails I had sent
>> to your office over the years since I first visited it in 2006.

>> Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide

>> When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien
>> actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign

>> operations after the initial occupation of Iraq. At the “last minute”
>> Prime Minister Chretien and the Liberal government changed its mind.
>> The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not
>> deploy combat troops for the Iraq campaign, but would deploy a
>> Canadian Battle Group to Afghanistan, enabling our amerkan cousins to
>> redeploy troops from there to Iraq. The PMO’s thinking that it was

>> Group, is credited with “saving Afghanistan” during the Panjway
>> campaign of 2006.

>> What Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don’t tell you now, is that then
>> Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chretien committed, and deployed the
>> Canadian army to Canada’s longest “war” without the advice, consent,

>> What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling

>> as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a

>>
>> The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have

>> That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by
>> constitutional scholar Phillippe Legasse. What Parliament can do is
>> remove “confidence” in The Crown’s Government in a “vote of
>> non-confidence.” That could not happen to the Chretien Government
>> regarding deployment to Afghanistan, and it won’t happen in this

>> limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.
>>
>> President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror

'What isn't wrong with journalism today?' asks Dalton Camp lecturer

https://stephenkimber.com/no-offence-intended-mr-rudderham/
No offence intended, Mr. Rudderham

One shouldn’t mess — litigiously speaking — with Parker Rudderham. The
Cape Breton businessman who owns Frank Magazine  — a publication with
its own storied courtroom history — sometimes seems as (in)famous for
his legal battles as his business successes and philanthropic
donations.

On October 30, 2012, to cite but one recent example, his hometown
newspaper, the Cape Breton Post, scored a two-for-one story that
began: “A prominent Cape Breton businessman’s company pleaded guilty
to tax evasion Tuesday, the same day he was issued a ticket for his
involvement in a fatal motor-vehicle accident.”

The Canada Revenue Agency claimed Rudderham’s Montreal-based
Professional Pharmacy Wholesale Service had “voluntarily violated” tax
laws by claiming over $1 million in false expenses. Rudderham pleaded
guilty in court but not guilty in the court of public opinion,
stressing to a reporter he’d have fought the accusation if he hadn’t
been in the middle of selling the company.

Although Rudderham was tight-lipped that day about the motorcycle
accident — he had been fined $399.91 under the Motor Vehicle Act for
failing to drive in a “careful and prudent manner” — he later
announced he’d fight the charge. The widow of the motorcyclist then
filed suit against him.

And so it goes. Without pretending to be exhaustive, some cases from
Rudderham’s docket: In 2003, he was sued by his ex-employer for
allegedly violating his employment contract. In 2007, he sued “an
ex-wife’s family member for defamation.” In 2011, he threatened to sue
the Halifax Herald over its coverage of firings at Frank. In 2013,
Frank reported Rudderham sued his second cousin over a $27,000 debt.

All of which by way of saying it is with some trepidation one
questions Parker Rudderham.

Still, I was intrigued by his latest legal to-and-fro. Rudderham is
suing a Cape Breton woman and son for alleged “cyberbullying” tweets
about him. The defendants dispute that and counter the province’s
Cyber Safety Act violates Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

It’s not the first time a prominent, well-connected individual has
invoked our new cyberbullying law against those they claim have
criticized them. Is that really who the law was intended to protect?
Will the law — and its good intentions — survive a Charter challenge?

No offence intended, Mr. Rudderham.

Widow of motorcyclist killed in accident suing Frank Magazine owner

Posted: Sept. 16, 2013, midnight

SYDNEY, N.S. — The widow of a Nova Scotia man killed while attempting
to turn his motorcycle onto his street has filed a civil suit against
the driver of the vehicle that struck the bike.

In a statement of claim filed with the Supreme Court this week, Carol
MacDonald is seeking unspecified damages from Sydney businessman
Parker Rudderham, CEO and president of Montreal-based Professional
Pharmacy Wholesale Services Ltd. and owner of the Halifax-based Frank
Magazine.

Rudderham was already charged under the Motor Vehicle Act with failing
to drive in a careful and prudent manner and paid a fine of $399.91.

The suit outlines several allegations, including Rudderham failed to
drive in a prudent manner, failed to maintain a proper lookout and
failed to take proper defensive driving techniques in a bid to avoid
an accident.

None of the information outlined in the statement of claim has been
proven in court.

The accident occurred Sept. 14, 2012, as 67-year-old John MacLeod
MacDonald was attempting to turn his motorcycle off Grand Lake Road
onto Kytes Hill Drive.

In attempting to make the turn, MacDonald was struck from behind by a
2012 Cadillac Escalade driven by Rudderham.

A defence response to the action needs to be filed within 15 days.

Cape Bretoners react to Frank Magazine closure
Christopher Connors | Posted: a day ago


Gerry Rendell, owner of John's Barber Shop, prepares to cut the hair
of longtime customer Jody Merriam. For decades, copies of Frank
Magazine were strewn on a table in the lobby of the iconic Sydney
River shop. The self-described collection of “news, satire, opinion,
comment, and humour,” shut down Wednesday after 35 years. Chris

River shop. The self-described collection of “news, satire, opinion,
comment, and humour,” shut down Wednesday after 35 years. Chris
Connors/Cape Breton Post


SYDNEY RIVER, N.S. — John's Barber Shop has been a Sydney River
institution for more than 50 years.

And along with the décor — walls covered with Toronto Maple Leafs
memorabilia photos and newspaper clippings featuring local people and
their accomplishments — there was one other constant: a round wooden
table covered with dozens of copies of Frank Magazine.

Jody Merriam, who was waiting for a haircut Thursday, was suspired to
hear the Halifax publication known for its brash reporting of
political scandals and regional gossip was shutting down after 35
years.

Merriam said he always leafed through the magazine while waiting for
his turn in the barber’s chair.

“It was for the humour and the gossip that they provided,” he said.
“It’s just human nature — the cover shows all these people that you
know and you see on the news — people across Nova Scotia that are high
up — and they’re printing stuff in this magazine that is detrimental
to them probably, to their character and everything like that. It
didn’t matter what stature you held, your dirty laundry was aired out
in this magazine.”
Frank Magazine Atlantic has closed. - submitted
NOT A FAN

Gerry Rendell took over John's Barber Shop after his father, John
Rendell, died in 2021. By that time, the COVID-19 pandemic had forced
them to remove their magazines and they still mainly operate by
appointment so people aren’t lingering in the lobby.

While his father enjoyed the magazine, Gerry said he was never a fan.

“Dad had his own thoughts on it — he thought it was entertaining, it
kept you in touch with what was going on behind the scenes here. I
didn’t really agree with it because they focused on the negative and
I’m an optimistic person,” he said, adding that they always removed
any copies that criticized their customers.

“I read the stories too but anytime we had somebody who was in here
and a story was based on them, we would take that magazine out of
respect,” he said.

“It happened with clientele who came in — obviously I’m not going to
mention any names — but you didn’t want people talking about these
people when they came in; we’re not a place of gossip here, it’s a
place to get a haircut and what’s said here stays here.”
OWNED BY CAPE BRETONER

Self-described as a collection of “news, satire, opinion, comment, and
humour,” Frank was established in 1987 and had been owned by prominent
Cape Breton businessman Parker Rudderham since 2010. Rudderham did not
respond to a request for an interview as of press time.

Paul Palango, a former Globe and Mail editor who has been writing for
Frank in recent years, told SaltWire Media on Wednesday that he
believes Frank’s closure was a result of Colchester County politicians
lobbying to have the publication banned from some local stores as a
result of its coverage of the 2020 mass killings.

Frank Magazine Says Goodbye After 35 Years
Frank Magazine Says Goodbye After 35 Years

by  Nova Scotia Buzz

Posted September 14, 2022



The Halifax edition of Frank Magazine has shuttered its social media
accounts and posted a message on their website.

“We regret to announce the death of Frank Magazine, 35, which occurred
on September 14, 2022.” the Magazine said.

Frank began publishing in 1987 and was well known for printing
political scandals and regional gossip.

More recently, the magazine has been known for its reporting on the
Nova Scotia mass shooting. It obtained and was the first to release
security video of the shooter being shot by RCMP at the Irving Big
Stop in Enfield. The Magazine also appealed a decision by the Mass
Casualty Commission to not release the security videos of the shooters
death publicly. They were backed by several other media outlets and
won the appeal.

The magazine said subscribers can claim the balance owing on their
subscription by calling 1-877-633-9595.

Frank Magazine Atlantic has closed.
Frank Magazine Atlantic published this image in announcing it has closed.

Stuffed shirts and political hacks, breathe easy.

Halifax-based Frank Magazine which billed itself as a collection “of
news, satire, opinion, comment, and humour,” has shut down.

“We regret to announce the death of Frank Magazine Atlantic, 35, which
occurred on September 14, 2022,” says a note on the publication’s
website.

“Stricken with a rogue’s gallery of grievous and irremediable medical
conditions, death was quick and (mostly! - ed.) painless.”
'It’s been going on for a number of weeks'

Managing editor Andrew Douglas could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

“Stricken with a rogue’s gallery of grievous and irremediable medical
conditions, death was quick and (mostly! - ed.) painless.”
'It’s been going on for a number of weeks'

Managing editor Andrew Douglas could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

“I didn’t know it was that precarious a situation,” he said.
'It is a big loss'

The closure is a loss for Nova Scotia, Palango said.

“Frank was a part of the journalistic ecosystem here and it is a big
loss,” he said.

“They reported on stories that weren’t on the agenda, basically. They
were out scouting for stories that should be reported and that weren’t
reported. Stories that were on the edge.”
Politicians blamed

Palango, who reported extensively on the Nova Scotia mass murders of
April 2020 for Frank, credited Douglas for his journalistic chops.

He blamed the Frank closure on Colchester County politicians who
banded together to get Frank banned from some local stores last year
over their coverage of Dartmouth denturist Gabriel Wortman’s murders
of 22 people and the horrific aftermath.  “I want to congratulate
them,” Palango said. “They’re very successful because they killed
Frank and I hope they’re happy.”

Didn't expect this ... Frank Magazine Atlantic (@Frank_Mag) is shutting down.
Sreencap of the following announcement: "We regret to announce the
death of Frank Magazine Atlantic, 35, which occurred on September 14,
2022. Stricken with a rogues' gallery of grievous and irremediable
medical conditions, death was quick and (mostly! - ed) painless."

who knows?

In the last couple of years they reported on  Nova Scotia mass
shooting. It obtained and was the first to release security video of
the shooter being shot by RCMP at the Irving Big Stop in Enfield. The
Magazine also appealed a decision by the Mass Casualty Commission to
not release the security videos of the shooters death publicly. They
were backed by several other media outlets and won the appeal.

The magazine said subscribers can claim the balance owing on their
subscription by calling 1-877-633-9595.

The vile racism and misogyny that was Frank Magazine

Frank Magazine announcing its own death

Frank Magazine has died.

The magazine announced its own death on its website, and then deleted
its social media accounts. No explanation was provided for the
closure.

Frank was started in 1987 by David Bentley, Lyndon Watkins, and Dulcie
Conrad. Bentley was the primary operator of Frank, having used the
proceeds of his sale of The Daily News to finance the new magazine.
(There’s a publication with the same name in Ottawa; the two are not
now related.)

Bentley infused Frank with the spirit of the English tabloids. Frank
scoured assessment and court records to satirically take on the
business and political elites, and otherwise reported on their private
lives. This was in stark contrast to the existing news media, which
were timid and overly deferential to the powerful.

There’s a complicated ownership history, but in 2004, Frank was
purchased by John Williams. Williams was especially good at revealing
the sex abuse scandals of the Catholic Church. His work was important,
and I valued the publication.

I was friendly with Williams. It was clear the enterprise was
exhausting him, and he complained that it wasn’t working financially.
So I wasn’t surprised in 2010 when he sold it. I congratulated him on
his work, and wished him the best. Williams then made a run at a gay
publication called Gaze*, but subsequently left journalism completely.
I haven’t kept up with him, but I’m told he’s doing well. I’m glad.

While I wasn’t surprised that Williams sold Frank, I was surprised
about who bought it: Parker Rudderham, the Cape Breton businessman
with a reputation for his many engagements in the court system.

Soon after Rudderham bought Frank there was a mass exodus and/or
firing (depending on whom you talk to) at Frank. My understanding is
that staff were upset at the increasingly misogynistic turn of Frank.
Four reporters left: Mairin Prentiss, Jacob Boon, Neal Ozano, and Dan
Walsh, leaving editorial control of the magazine in the hands of the
sole remaining reporter, Andrew Douglas. Rudderham reportedly
threatened to sue the Chronicle Herald over its reporting on the staff
issues.

In the wake of that episode, the little publication that had been
punching up for the previous 14 years began aggressively punching
down, attacking unions, women, immigrants, and (especially) people of
colour.

Much of that ugly “reporting” was directed at my friend and colleague, El Jones.

“They drew me as a monkey,” Jones tells me, referring to a cartoon
published in the magazine, which was reminiscent of 19th century
cartoons representing Black people as beasts. Publication of the
cartoon resulted in Frank being yanked completely from the stands at
Atlantic News and pulled off prominent display in other outlets.

“Frank spent years following me around in public, taking pictures of
me walking on the street, reposting private posts from my social media
and making fake identities to come on my page, turning up at award
events to harass and post about me and nobody else, and on and on and
on,” continues Jones. “What great political project was involved in
Andrew Douglas walking by Venus Envy and tweeting about how he saw a
book on interracial sex, adding, ‘don’t tell El Jones’?”

“I also note that the very thing they are now being credited with —
fierce criticism of the RCMP — is the very thing they harassed me
over,” she adds. “When Black and Indigenous women said and say the
police are corrupt and not accountable, Frank put us on the cover and
degraded us. And the very next week, they could write about the
police, and get praised. This is a great example of how racism and
misogynoir work — I am ‘crazy,’ a ‘cop hater’ and ‘disgusting’ when I
make informed critique of the police, but when white men critique the
police, they are fantastic journalists.”

It wasn’t just Jones that Frank attacked. I won’t get into all the
details of its coverage of Rehtaeh Parsons, but will note that Douglas
decided the real guilty party was not the boys who assaulted Rehtaeh,
but rather her mother, Leah Parsons, for improper parental
supervision. “My mother wouldn’t have given me the chance to kill
myself,” wrote Douglas. “She would’ve done it for me.”

Then there was this February 25, 2016 tweet from @Frank_Mag (the
entire account was deleted yesterday), after Halifax Transit named one
of the ferries in honour of civil rights activist Viola Desmond:

    Next year during Black History Month, we’ll all be able to ride
Viola Desmond. Several times a day, if that’s what you’re in to.

I’m just scratching the surface. The magazine was filled with such
vile shit issue after issue.

But it turns out that being overtly and proudly sexist and racist is a
rotten business model — why pay for that shit when you can get it for
free from your asshole uncle on Facebook?

I have no knowledge of the finances of Frank, but under Douglas’s
reign, the publication increasingly felt like a vanity project for
Rudderham. I don’t know how much money he lost on Frank, but evidently
he has recently decided that it was too much of a money hole, so he
pulled the plug.

About that RCMP reporting. I won’t air dirty laundry in public. My
relationship with writers — why I publish them, why I sometimes decide
to stop publishing them — is not the public’s business. Suffice it to
say that as an editor I have many concerns — reputational value,
reliable sourcing, accuracy, how issues are framed, the potential for
litigation, and more — and I have not just the right but the
responsibility as editor to exercise my judgment on these things.

I reported critically on the RCMP long before the mass murders of
April 2020 — as I detailed in the Dead Wrong series, the RCMP
knowingly left Glen Assoun, an innocent man, in prison rather than let
an investigator cast doubt on Assoun’s conviction — and I’ve been
reporting critically on the RCMP in relation to the mass murders. But
I do so fairly,  accurately, and with facts I find properly sourced.

Competition in the news business is good, as it sharpens all of us,
keeps us on our toes. I criticize other publications, but when they
close or downsize, I usually lament the loss, praise the past
reporting, and worry for the reporters’ futures.

Not this time. Not after what was done to my friend. Not after the
mean-spirited attacks on women and victims of sexual abuse. Not after
the proudly racist commentary.

Frank and its vile writers can rot in hell.


Nova Scotia’s Frank magazine, a mix of news, satire and humour, ceases

The Halifax-based satirical magazine Frank has announced its demise
after more than three decades of publication.

A notice on the publication’s website says the publishers “regret to
announce the death of Frank Magazine Atlantic … which occurred on
September 14, 2022.”

A photo montage depicting the cartoon figure who appeared on the
magazine’s masthead, lying in a coffin with his eyes closed,
accompanies the announcement.

The website says the publication, which is distinct from the
Ottawa-based magazine of the same name, had operated for 35 years.

It was widely sold at supermarket checkouts and was available online
for a subscription fee, and the announcement says subscribers will be
reimbursed.

The editor of the publication, Andrew Douglas, was not immediately
available for comment.

The magazine has received praise and criticism over the years for its
journalism, with some commentators noting that in the past it would
break stories that other media then followed.

Stephen Kimber, a faculty member at the University of King’s College
school of journalism, writing and publishing in Halifax, said he used
to frequently purchase the magazine, regarding it as something of “a
guilty pleasure.”

“It had a heyday when they were satirical, they were nasty, and they
would uncover things people didn’t want uncovered, but they had a
focus on politicians, businessmen and media stars,” he said in an
interview on Thursday.

“There was a period when they were breaking stories,” he recalled,
referring primarily to the 1990s.

“They did some of the first stories about (former premier) Gerald
Regan’s issues with women, they did stories about (former premier)
John Buchanan’s trust funds. They were an important journalistic
publication in this province for a period of time.”

More recently, the publication was the first to publish a story
revealing that senior members of an internal RCMP team tasked with
providing information to Nova Scotia’s mass shooting inquiry were
married to two top female officers involved in the response. The two
Mounties on the team were subsequently replaced due to conflict of
interest concerns.

However, Kimber said in recent years he felt the emphasis often
shifted too far away from knocking the powerful off their pedestals.

“Many of those being exposed were ordinary people who had nothing to
say in terms of public policy or business or anything else,” he said.

“I stopped making it a regular thing to buy.”

In 2017, the magazine came under criticism for a cartoon that depicted
El Jones, an African Nova Scotian poet who was attending a
demonstration, as having a jutting chin and sloping forehead.

The magazine modified the image after critics described the image as
racist and launched campaigns to remove the magazine from stores.
Douglas also apologized to readers, saying, “In our mind, we didn’t
use (a) racist character, but having said that we also understand that
can be totally subjective.”

Jones, who is now the Nancy’s chair in women’s studies at Mount Saint
Vincent University, said in an interview at the time she viewed the
image as a throwback to racist images in magazines in the 1800s that
depicted African men and women as having features closer to primates
than Caucasians.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 15, 2022.

MCC Day 70 - Police Oversight Advice and the Untimely Death of Frank Magazine
200 views
Sep 14, 2022

728 subscribers
The Mass Casualty Commission held its final research and policy
roundtable today. This one was focused on civilian oversight advice
for the Commissioners, and featured 19 speakers, in addition to the
moderator.

The biggest news of the day may have been the sudden announcement that
Frank Magazine was not going to be publishing any more issues. Frank
has been a unique and important source of investigative reporting on
the MCC over the past two years, and on all things Nova Scotia for 35
years. There will be a large void to fill.

The MCC learned today that much of the current civilian oversight of
the RCMP is quite limited in its ability to hold the force to account,
and very little of that oversight is local to Nova Scotia. There will
be an afternoon session tomorrow, featuring a presentation from the
Avalon Sexual Assault Centre and input from other "justice related"
organizations. There are four days of proceedings on the calendar for
next week, though there are no details available as to what will be
taking place during those sessions.

Why act so surprised? I suspect that you or at least some of your fans

As always great insight. After all that has been brought to the table

down. They seem to have been allowed over time to do things their way

Frank magazine did some good work to be sure, I wrote an essay in
defense of Frank months back, but Andrew Douglas allowed his political
biases to alienate his own audience. He doxxed a bunch of people who
donated to a protest in defense of charter rights that were under
attack (attacks no one could reasonably justify in a free and
democratic society because they weren't based on evidence or sound
reasoning) he hyper focused on Jeremy McKenzie as what seemed like
dozens of people made public claims they'd cancel subscriptions over
those two things alone, refused to cover the attack on Salman Rushdie
by an Islamic extremist, refused to cover the Kamloops hoax where
there was no bodies discovered, refused to cover laif Marouf being
paid by government to spread hate and evil, and meanwhile he was
bemoaning Pierre povilierre, Jordan Peterson and basically tried to
cultivate some kind of elitist illiberal partisans who apparently
weren't willing to pay for a subscription. It's a shame to see someone
self sabotage a magazine so bad but in my view he became an enemy of
free speech pushing a silence of tyranny, tried to portray a lot of
speech outside of the coercive conformity of the epistemic tribalism
of the left, as violence. It's a good lesson for him. Good opportunity
to be less of a censorious joke in the future. Portray words as
violence and the people will repudiate you as harmful trash and an
attack on our democracy based on pluralism. He can take the lesson
that the onus on tolerance in democratic pluralisms IS ON THE
LISTENER.

No Harry Potter magic here just the Hells Angels by Paul Palango
April 18/19 Mass Shooting

August 23, 2022

NO HARRY POTTER MAGIC HERE, JUST THE HELLS ANGELS

By Paul Palango



The deliberate murkiness about Gabriel Wortman’s associations with
criminals in the years prior to his deadly killing sprees has led to
much speculation about what he was really doing.  The RCMP says it
couldn’t find any serious organized crime connections in Wortman’s
past. The Mounties couldn’t figure out where his money came from. The
Mass Casualty Commission – the Spinquiry, as we call it – isn’t all
that curious about any of it, either.



We don’t know precisely what Wortman was doing all those years before
he killed 22 people on April 18 and 19, 2020, but several police
sources have provided Frank Magazine with a potentially helpful road
map.



It begins with Hogwarts.



We’re not talking about Harry Potter’s magic school, but rather
Project Hogwarts, a joint-forces police operation that began in Nova
Scotiain 2016.



The information about Project Hogwarts was provided to Frank Magazine
by a group of current and former law enforcement officers who are
familiar with aspects of what had taken place. One of them is Jimmy
McNulty, the pseudonym we use for a source we’ve been talking to for
this story since almost the beginning.



“In 2015, the Atlantic provinces started seeing a new stage in the
proliferation of outlaw motorcycle gangs,” said Jimmy McNulty.  “The
Hells Angels were moving east, setting up in Charlottetown and Nova
Scotia. The Red Devils, the Angels’ number one support club, set up
shop in Musquodoboit Harbour. Another support club, the Gatekeepers
MC(I remember those guys!-ed.) started opening up clubhouses around
the province. They were supported by the Sedition MC and the
Darksiders MC.”



It had been about 14 years since the Hells Angels had been driven out
of Nova Scotia after a series of devastating police actions, and now
the gang was coming back to town, not only in the Maritimes but also
across the country. It was part of a strategy to control the illegal
drug trade from coast to coast.

The RCMP was on the case. In fact, then Commissioner Robert Paulson
had made taking down the Hells Angels his number one crime-fighting
priority in Canada. RCMP projects were being initiated everywhere to
counter the threat.



“People were noticing that the bikers were setting up shop and began
to complain about it all,” McNulty said. “By the spring of 2016,
police forces in Nova Scotia, led by the RCMP, tried to tackle the
issue. A provincial biker enforcement unit called the CFSEU (Combined
Forces Special Enforcement Unit) was set up as part of RCMP federal
operations. It was called Project Hogwarts.



“Our intention was to show the outlaw motorcycle gangs that we always
control the grounds in our area,” McNulty said. “Our media mouth
pieces used fear tactics to rouse the public about the dangers and we
began our policing.”



Stories to that end, like one by Keith Doucette of The Canadian Press
in late 2016, began sounding the alarm.



“It doesn’t sit well with me for them to be here because I know what
they bring with them,” Doucette wrote, quoting RCMP Corporal Andy
Cook. “I’ve seen them in action, and they bring violence with them and
they bring drug trafficking with them.”



Stephen Schneider, a criminology professor at St. Mary’s University,
told Doucette that the Hells Angels were looking to not only control
the Canadian market but were likely also planning to set up an export
market.



“They are certainly operating pill presses out in B.C. and perhaps
they want to start setting up production facilities in the Maritimes
so they actually can start exporting,” Schneider was quoted as saying.



Throughout 2016 and 2017, the pages of Frank were littered with biker
stories, not only big-picture stuff like who was pulling the strings
in Nova Scotia — full-patch London, Ont. HA David (Hammer) MacDonald
was one of the top guys — but identifying the comings and goings of
many of the smaller players on the ground here, from Annapolis County
to Sydney.



Project Hogwarts was lead by RCMP Inspector Alfredo Bangloy. The
“brains” of the operation was RCMP Sgt. Angela Hawryluk.  Other
members of the original team included then-Cpl. (now Sgt.) Mike Kerr,
RCMP constables Chris Dodge, Scott Morrison, Peter Hurley and Colby
Smith. Halifax Police officers on the team included Detective
constables Steve Fairbairn, Nathan Cross, Curtis Osmond, Mike Carter,
Cory Simmonds and Rebecca Trueman. A civilian working with the unit
was Ellen Urquhart.



As the team conducted its surveillance, they became aware of then
47-year-old Robin Moulton, a high-profile Hells Angels Nomad from New
Brunswick, making his presence known in Nova Scotia.  The Nomads are
elite Hells Angels members who have no set club house and are said to
have earned their ranking by having killed for the club, although
Moulton does not appear to have ever been charged with murder.
Moulton’s lawyer, T.J. Burke did not respond to a request for comment
on this or previous stories.



“We focused a lot on Moulton and even put a tracker on his vehicle,”
McNulty said. “We followed him back to New Brunswick and were able to
identify various real estate and businesses to which he was
associated.



“The investigation was proceeding smoothly until the RCMP brass in New
Brunswick caught wind that we had expanded into New Brunswick and were
chasing bikers on their turf. They were pissed,” McNulty said. “They
wanted to shut us down.”



Before that happened, a parallel operation to Hogwarts was set up in
New Brunswick – Operation Trident.



The Nova Scotia CFSEU investigation is archived in the RCMP’s PROS
record system under file number 2016-979629, McNulty said. The New
Brunswick one is filed in the PROS system as 2016-1141937. Frank
Magazine will be filing a request to see those files in due course.



In 2016, the outlaw-biker obsessed Commissioner Paulson put assistant
commissioner Larry Tremblay in charge of the New Brunswick RCMP. A
former member of the Canadian Navy, Tremblay joined the RCMP and rose
through the ranks. Between 2004 and 2008 he was seconded to the
Canadian Security Intelligence Service. In Ottawa, Tremblay ran
national security, financial crimes and serious organized crime
investigations until 2014. He then moved into protective services,
hobnobbing with the political elite, overseeing security for the Prime
Minister, Governor General and Parliament, a tried-and-true
steppingstone to the upper echelons of the RCMP.



Tremblay had no sooner hit the ground in New Brunswick when he began
to put in place his own hand-picked team to take on the Hells Angels.
Many of them were trusted French speakers, like then Staff-Sgt.
Dustine Rodier, who took command of the Hampton, N.B. detachment,
which was at the centre of the action. people he believed he could
trust. McNulty said that many of the investigators from Hogwarts and
Trident were rolled into two new operations: Projects
J-Thunderstruckand J-Thunder.

Project J-Thunderstruck targeted Hells Angels Nomad Emery “Pit” Martin
who was operating in Northern New Brunswick, along the border with
Quebec.



Project Thunder’s focus was on his fellow Nomad Robin Moulton and the
Red Devils, in particular, in Southern New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.



It could be reasonably argued that creating large interprovincial
operations made sense, considering that the entire population of the
Maritimes is less than that of the city of Toronto.



The new investigators added to the investigation roster included
Inspector Deanna Hill, Inspector Ron DeSilva, Staff Sergeants Bruce
Reid, Sgt. Eric Lanteigne and Constable Julie Messina.  Other key
players included Fredericton Sgt. Mike Berry and Corporal Gerard
Crispo. There were additional investigators from RCMP federal
services, Fredericton Police, the Canadian Border Security Agency and
other policing jurisdictions.



 Here’s where the investigations started to get tricky.



“Any RCMP investigation of outlaw bikers requires an informant,
someone the Mounties can control,” McNulty said.



In early 2017, he said, the team was told that the RCMP indeed had a
new informant for Project Thunder.



“We were told that they had someone in the Truro-Portapique area who
was tied into MS-13 and the Angels,” McNulty said. “The Mounties were
hot on it.”



For those familiar with this ongoing saga, the El Salvadoran street
gang Mara Salvatrucha or MS-13 – “the most notorious street gang in
the Western Hemisphere” – is linked to precisely one person in that
area – Wortman’s friend and handyman Peter Alan Griffon.



The RCMP and the Spinquiry have all but made the 42-year-old Griffon
invisible in spite of his obvious credentials as a witness that many
in the public would like to see testify. Griffon was reportedly
working on Wortman’s property in the hours leading up to the beginning
of the massacres. He called Lisa Banfield’s phone on a number of
occasions. Griffon also told police that he was the person who applied
the RCMP decals to a decommissioned police car, creating the near
perfect replica of an RCMP cruiser that Wortman used during his
13.5-hour spree. Griffon was never charged and his current whereabouts
are unknown.



Parole Board of Canada documents describe the circumstances of his
2014 arrest as part of an investigation into MS-13 elements in
Edmonton.



“In December 2014 police were conducting an investigation into a known
Security Threat Group(STG). You came to their attention through this
investigation and on the same day, police stopped a vehicle you were
driving. The vehicle was searched and police found cash, a baggie with
3 grams of cocaine, a black backpack containing approximately 800
grams of cocaine, more cash, a score sheet, a portable hard drive and
a camera. Police also located multiple cell phones in the vehicle.



“A short time later, police searched a warehouse where you were
living. A number of items were found, including multiple firearms and
ammunition, approximately 4 kilos of cocaine, $30,000 in cash and
various paraphernalia used to buff, package, and traffic cocaine. You
did not have a licence to possess any of the weapons and admitted to
the police that you worked for a cocaine distribution operation and
his job was to store, process, distribute, and transport cocaine to
traffickers.”



Griffon languished in an Alberta jail for several years, partly
because of a day parole violation, and eventually received a
relatively short sentence of two years, eight months and nine days.



The obvious problem with Griffon being the sole RCMP informant was
that in 2017 he was still imprisoned in Alberta and didn’t win his
parole until August 2018. Once he was paroled, Griffon was allowed to
move back to live in his parents’ house, which was located several
hundred meters south of Wortman’s cottage at 200 Portapique Beach
Road.



“We didn’t get a name on the informant, but I firmly believe it was
Wortman and that he was the one who supplied the hydraulic pill
presses to the Hells Angels. He fit the profile perfectly,” McNulty
said.

The danger for the police, McNulty added, was that Wortman was also a
criminal who might have been playing both sides at the same time.



Wherever the truth lies, McNulty said that there was likely a natural
evolution of the relationship between Wortman and the RCMP. Wortman
had family members who were Mounties and he associated with police
officers on a regular basis. It likely all began with a simple
relationship, exchanging information with police officers such as
Halifax constable Barry Warnell and RCMP constable Greg Wiley, who
visited Wortman 16 times until early 2017.



“The thing to note is that Wiley told the MCC that he had no notes
about their conversations, which I find hard to believe. That’s not
the way the Mounties roll. They report everything,” McNulty said.
“What Wiley did say was that he would check in with Wortman about
minor criminal activity in the community. That tells you something
right there.”



McNulty and their group believe that as Project Thunder got off the
ground, the RCMP relationship with Wortman moved to the next level –
agent.



“That’s where the big money is,” McNulty said. “He would have had a
professional handler at that point. I believe that Mountie was
Constable Peter Hurley. That was his specialty. He was the kind of
handler who promised the moon to potential informants and even more so
to agents, but the RCMP is notorious for not following through.”



Once New Brunswick took over, Inspector DeSilva, then head of the
Federal Serious and Organized Crime Unit, assumed the handler
responsibility, McNulty said.



We may never know the true story. It would be a criminal offense for a
Mountie to reveal the identity of an informant or agent, even after
they are dead. The RCMP undercover manual instructs members to lie to
everyone but a judge about such matters.



What we do know is what we are allowed to know.



When Moulton was arrested in August 2017, he was charged with
possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking and possession of
a restricted firearm – a 9 mm Beretta. Not much considering all the
effort when you think about it.



At the time of his arrest, CBC News asked then Fredericton Police
Chief Leanne Fitchabout the investigation. She said: “Getting down
into the weeds of any particular aspect of ongoing or past or present
issues could jeopardize investigations and officer and public safety,
so I won’t be commenting on any specifics.”



In 2018, Moulton received a rather short sentence of four years and six months.



There was a good reason why that happened, McNulty said.



“The agent was still in place and the RCMP couldn’t reveal everything
they knew because that would point to the agent, so they left
important things out so they could continue their investigation,”
McNulty said. “It could be argued that there was a miscarriage of
justice. Moulton’s lawyer wasn’t given all the facts about what the
police had been doing.”



The twin projects concluded on April 9, 2020 with the announcement by
Inspector DeSilva that two more Hells Angels member and two Red Devils
had been arrested in New Brunswick over the previous seven weeks.
DeSilva went out of his way to link the arrests to the previous ones
of Moulton and Martin, three and two years earlier, respectively. In
October, 2021 Martin received a seven-and-a-half year prison term for
cocaine trafficking and acting in the benefit of a criminal
organization.



“One of the most dangerous times is the end of an operation,” another
police source said, echoing the thoughts of others. “By that time, the
bad guys, especially the bikers, usually have a good idea about who
the rat was.”



Nine days after the projects closed, Wortman began his rampage.



From the closed and dangerous world of outlaw bikers, I continue to
hear stories about how Wortman was identified as a snitch and had his
life threatened over what happened to Moulton, Martin and the others.
No one yet will go on the record, which comes as no surprise,
considering the, um, grave consequences.



As for the Mounties, they have their own Hogwarts thing – a magical
ability to make controversies disappear into the wind.



In the spring of 2020, around the time of the massacres or shortly
afterward, multiple sources say that Hurley was transferred to
Ferryland, a small RCMP detachment on the Avalon Peninsula in
Newfoundland, about an hour’s drive south of St. John’s. In recent
months, he has taken down his social media.



Others, such as Staff-Sgt. Reid were not so lucky. Shortly before 2
p.m. on October 25, 2019, he committed suicide at a baseball diamond
in Rothesay, N.B. Reid suffered from typical psychological maladies
affecting many police officers, but those who knew him closely say he
was particularly distraught over his unheeded warnings about
significant failings in the overall Hells Angels’ investigations.
According to sources in New Brunswick, Reid believed a number of
people – as many as four – had been murdered during the course of the
investigation largely due to the RCMP’s shortcomings. Reid told people
that he was worried sick about one of the agents that the force had
employed. He strongly believed that the person was dangerous and
unsuited to the task, but that no one would listen to him.



Fifteen months after the massacres, New Brunswick Attorney General
Hugh Flemming took the unprecedented step of having Asst. Commissioner
Tremblay removed from his posting. Flemming stated in a letter to RCMP
Commissioner Brenda Lucki that he had “lost faith” in Tremblay, but
gave no specifics about the roots of his dissatisfaction.



Nova Scotia’s underperforming boss, Assistant Commissioner Leona (Lee)
Bergerman, was allowed to resign, as were a significant number of her
underlings who were involved in the RCMP response to the massacres.



Before she retired Sgt. Hawryluk was the Mountie in charge of writing
the informations to obtain search warrants in the post-massacres
investigation. She became a vocal critic of Frank Magazine and me, to
the point of lambasting a small store owner near where she lived over
his selling my recent book, 22 Murders.



The other trick that the RCMP employs when faced with embarrassment is
to promote those who might have failed and safely bury their possible
transgressions in the upper echelons of the force. For example, Chief
Superintendent Chris Leatherwas moved to a federal policing leadership
role in Ottawa.



Staff-Sgt Rodier was promoted to Inspector and was running the
Communicatons wing and 911 operations for the RCMP on the weekend of
the massacres. After that debacle she received another promotion to
Superintendent.



Superintendent Darren Campbell was given a bump to Chief
Superintendent and placed in charge of operations in New Brunswick.



His new boss was now Assistant Commissioner Deanna Hill. She was a key
player in Projects Thunder and Thunderstruck and afterward was placed
in charge of the RCMP in Newfoundland.



“Tremblay put his people in place all over the Maritimes so that he
could control things” McNulty said. “After he was pushed out, they
brought back Deanna Hill to replace him. It’s just a continuation of
what had been going on. You can’t help but think that they’ve put
people in place to protect the untold story that scares the shit out
of all of them.”



Next there is DeSilva. We don’t know yet what he really did – and the
RCMP would never confirm or deny if he was Wortman’s handler -- but
the Mounties obviously thought he did a terrific job. DeSilva was
named Officer of the Year in 2017 and eventually was promoted to
Superintendent. He is currently the officer in charge of the Codiac
Detachment, essentially the municipal police for Moncton and its
sister communities of Dieppe and Riverview. That’s where at least
three of the four murders may have taken place.



One might think that the Mass Casualty Commission might be interested
in poking around in all this, but one of its three Commissioners is
Leanne Fitch who, to echo her CBC quote, is not the kind of person who
likes “getting down into the weeds” of police investigations. The
entire Commission appears to be laser focused on not getting to the
bottom of the story, having avoided any potentially embarrassing
exploration like that for about six months.



Its circular logic goes something like this: “We can’t explore
anything that we haven’t been able to document, and we are not going
to search for documents that we haven’t been told about because our
mandate is not to find fault or cause trauma.”



Our mandate is quite the opposite.



If you can lend us a hand, please step forward and tell us what you
know. The greater community would appreciate it very much.

The Media and the Murders by Rick Howe

The media and the murders

by Rick Howe



Most Nova Scotians today know the ba­sics of what transpired April
18th and 19th, 2020 when something snapped in the mind of Dartmouth
denturist Gabriel Wortman, who, dressed as an RCMP officer and
driv­ing a replica RCMP vehicle, launched a two day murderous rampage
that left 22 Nova Scotians and one unborn child dead and the gunman
himself killed by the RCMP.



It was the worst mass killing in Canadian history and it happened here
at home. You might think getting the full story behind what happened
would be a priority for the main­stream media. Sadly that has not been
the case.



Even as the Mass Casualty Commission promises to get to the truth of
what happened that tragic weekend, many Nova Scotians remain
skeptical. There are some who be­lieve the Commission is party to a
cover-up and there never was any intention to reveal the whole truth
about the actions of Gabriel Wortman and Canada’s national police
force, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.



Critics believe this has become an effort to deflect from the
relationship between them. Why isn’t Wortman’s criminal record and his
association with a criminal motorcycle gang not part of the MCC
inquiry? The crit­ics believe there is an effort to cover-up the
RCMP’s involvement or relationship with Wortman and his relationship
with the Hells Angels. Was Gabriel Wortman a confidential police
informant? Yet there is little effort by the mainstream media to get
to the real story, beyond the pablum fed to them by the RCMP and the
MCC.



I’ll give the Chronicle Herald a thumbs up for facts unearthed by its
reporters in the thousands of documents dumped online by the
Commission, seemingly an effort to bury pertinent details. The CBC’s
Elizabeth Mc­Millan has, through freedom of information requests, also
revealed new details. How­ever, it stops there.



The mainstream Nova Scotia media need to wake up to the very real
possibilities this is much more than just one man’s two day killing
spree. Serious questions need to be asked and revealed about events
leading up to that weekend, the April weekend itself and the days and
weeks following the murders.



Where is CTV’s Rick Grant when you need him?



Sadly, those days of investigative reporters breaking news stories are
long gone. Hali­fax’s all-news talk station has no reporters. When was
the last time CTV, CBC or Global broke a major story? CTV for example,
has done a reasonable job reporting details from the testimony before
the Mass Inquiry Com­mission, but in the days following the mass
killings, the mainstream media continued to accept the narrative
presented by the RCMP even as details were few, including no accu­rate
account of the number of people killed. Radio, television and
newspaper reports of­ten included verbatim RCMP news releases. It was
left to the alternative media to carry the ball.



Thanks to online sites like Little Grey Cells and quasi-news
organizations like the Halifax Examiner, and especially Frank
Magazine, we began getting details not pro­vided by the RCMP. We were
beginning to realize the Mounties were holding key facts from the
public.



Frank’s release of the 911 calls from Wortman’s victims and video from
his take-down at the Big Stop in Enfield were ma­jor scoops. And
Frank’s Paul Palango has been ruthless is revealing more details about
Wortman, his criminal record and his asso­ciation with motorcycle
gangs and police. He has been a thorn in the side of the RCMP to the
point where the RCMP’s media co-ordi­nator referred to Palango as “an
asshole.” He alone has kept this story fresh in the minds of those who
follow alternative media.

Then there’s the Lisa Banfield story. Wort­man’s long-time companion
was indeed a victim of abuse, but the MCC’s decision not to allow
cross examination by lawyers for his victims because she was a victim
was more evidence for those screaming cover-up. Any effort to question
her about her story the night the massacres began was denied.



Why? She is a key witness who could pro­vide more details about what
might have set Wortman off and her story about escap­ing handcuffs
while locked in the gunman’s RCMP replica police cruiser and spending
the night huddled inside a log in the woods is sketchy at best. And
again it is only Frank and Paul Palango who are asking ques­tions
about her claims. The Examiner’s Tim Bousquet bought into the MCC’s
version of events and recently told a critic to “fuck off.”



Palango told me quite emphatically this is a story about the failure
of police, but he thinks the mainstream media has lost inter­est.
Palango says he has no doubt a cover-up is underway. He got support
for his claims from an unlikely source, retired CTV anchor Steve
Murphy. In two commentaries Murphy agreed there is more to this story
than we are being told and suggested the so called conspiracy
theorists were on the right track. Murphy also said Lisa Banfield
should have been cross-examined by family lawyers. Out­side of his
comments, it has been crickets from the mainstream media.



”There is no longer a sense of pursuit,” Palango told me.



“It’s like the instinct had been bred out of reporters. No one is
doing anything.”



So many questions need answers. Why did the Mounties call for help
from the RCMP in New Brunswick? Why not seek aid from nearby police in
Truro or Amherst? Why were highway blockades not set up? Why was a man
with known ties to the Hells An­gels and a neighbour and a friend of
Wort­man’s evacuated with his father and mother from their home in
Portapique while four children whose parents had just been mur­dered
huddled in one home for hours? Why was Constable Heidi Stephenson,
basi­cally a traffic cop, looking for a killer alone in her police
car? Was the gunman a police confidential informant? What was Gabriel
Wortman’s connection to the Hells Angels?



The truth is out there. But is the Nova Sco­tia media up to the task
of unravelling the full story behind this terrible tragedy? Stay
tuned. There’s clearly a lot more to learn.

>> Raising a Little Hell- Lively Debate Provokes Crowd
>>
>> By Erin Hatfield
>>
>> "If you don't like what you got, why don't you change it? If your

>>
>> The 1979 Trooper song Raise a Little Hell blared on the speakers at
>> the 8th Hussars Sports Center Friday evening as people filed in to
>> watch the Fundy candidates debate the issues. It was an accurate, if
>> unofficial, theme song for the debate.
>>
>> The crowd of over 200 spectators was dwarfed by the huge arena, but as
>> they chose their seats, it was clear the battle lines were drawn.
>> Supporters of Conservative candidate Rob Moore naturally took the blue
>> chairs on the right of the rink floor while John Herron's Liberalswent
>> left. There were splashes of orange, supporters of NDP Pat Hanratty,
>> mixed throughout. Perhaps the loudest applause came from a row towards
>> the back, where supporters of independent candidate David Amos sat.
>>
>> The debate was moderated by Leo Melanson of CJCW Radio and was
>> organized by the Sussex Valley Jaycees. Candidates wereasked a barrage
>> of questions bypanelists Gisele McKnight of the Kings County Record
>> and Lisa Spencer of CJCW.
>>
>> Staying true to party platforms for the most part, candidates
>> responded to questions about the gun registry, same sex marriage, the
>> exodus of young people from the Maritimes and regulated gas prices.
>> Herron and Moore were clear competitors,constantly challenging each
>> other on their answers and criticizing eachothers’ party leaders.
>> Hanratty flew under the radar, giving short, concise responses to the
>> questions while Amos provided some food for thought and a bit of comic
>> relief with quirky answers. "I was raised with a gun," Amos said in
>> response to the question of thenational gun registry. "Nobody's
>> getting mine and I'm not paying 10 cents for it."
>>
>> Herron, a Progressive Conservative MP turned Liberal, veered from his
>> party'splatform with regard to gun control. "It was ill advised but
>> well intentioned," Herron said. "No matter what side of the house I am
>> on, I'm voting against it." Pat Hanratty agreed there were better
>> places for the gun registry dollars to be spent.Recreational hunters
>> shouldn't have been penalized by this gun registry," he said.
>>
>> The gun registry issues provoked the tempers of Herron and Moore. At
>> one point Herron got out of his seat and threw a piece of paper in
>> front of Moore. "Read that," Herron said to Moore, referring to the
>> voting record of Conservative Party leader Steven Harper. According to
>> Herron, Harper voted in favour of the registry on the first and second
>> readings of the bill in 1995. "He voted against it when it counted, at
>> final count," Moore said. "We needa government with courage to
>> register sex offenders rather than register the property of law
>> abiding citizens."
>>
>> The crowd was vocal throughout the evening, with white haired men and
>> women heckling from the Conservative side. "Shut up John," one woman
>> yelled. "How can you talk about selling out?" a man yelled whenHerron
>> spoke about his fear that the Conservatives are selling farmers out.
>>
>> Although the Liberal side was less vocal, Kings East MLA Leroy
>> Armstrong weighed in at one point. "You’re out of touch," Armstrong
>> yelled to Moore from the crowd when the debate turned to the cost of
>> post-secondary education. Later in the evening Amos challenged
>> Armstrong to a public debate of their own. "Talk is cheap. Any time,
>> anyplace," Armstrong responded.

>>
>> "I lost my faith in mankind," he said. "People go through that

>>
>> So Amos, who’d lived in Sussex since 1973, closed his Four Corners

>>
>> For those three years, they offered food, a place to sleep, odd jobs
>> and conversation all over North America.
>>
>> Since he and Annie stopped wandering, he has married, fathered a son
>> and a daughter and become a house-husband – Mr. Mom, as he calls
>> himself.
>>
>> He also describes himself in far more colourful terms—a motorcyclist

>> Canadian and a "wild colonial boy."
>>
>> Ironically, the man who is running for office has never voted in his
>> life.
>>
>> "But I have no right to criticize unless I offer my name," he said.
>> "It’s alright to bitch in the kitchen, but can you walk the walk?"
>>
>> Amos has no intention of actively campaigning.
>>
>> "I didn’t appreciate it when they (politicians) pounded on my door
>> interrupting my dinner," he said. "If people are interested, they can
>> call me. I’m not going to drive my opinions down their throats."
>>
>> And he has no campaign budget, nor does he want one.
>>
>> "I won’t take any donations," he said. "Just try to give me some. It’s
>> not about money. It goes against what I’m fighting about."
>>
>> What he’s fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood,
>> the exploitation of the Maritimes’ gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to
>> name a few.
>>
>> "The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs – fishing,
>> farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I’m
>> death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it
>> (NAFTA) out the window.

>> Catherine Cullen, Tim Powers and Chad Rogers are back to discuss the
>> latest drama in the Conservative leadership race.
>>
>> https://www.thewrit.ca/
>>
>> Late on Tuesday night, Patrick Brown was booted from the Conservative
>> leadership contest for his campaign’s alleged breaking of the rules
>> that govern political financing. Brown denies the allegations and puts
>> the blame on Pierre Poilievre’s campaign for engineering his ouster.
>>
>> This story is far from over, as it appears Brown might go to the
>> courts to challenge his disqualification. Meanwhile, the other
>> campaigns need to re-calibrate and figure out where they go from here.
>>
>>  There’s a lot to discuss.  So, this week I’m joined by Tim Powers of
>> Summa Strategies, Chad Rogers of Crestview Strategy and Catherine
>> Cullen, senior reporter with CBC News, to break it all down.

>>> Raising a Little Hell- Lively Debate Provokes Crowd
>>>
>>> By Erin Hatfield
>>>
>>> "If you don't like what you got, why don't you change it? If your
>>> world is all screwed up, rearrange it."
>>>
>>> The 1979 Trooper song Raise a Little Hell blared on the speakers at
>>> the 8th Hussars Sports Center Friday evening as people filed in to
>>> watch the Fundy candidates debate the issues. It was an accurate, if
>>> unofficial, theme song for the debate.
>>>
>>> The crowd of over 200 spectators was dwarfed by the huge arena, but as
>>> they chose their seats, it was clear the battle lines were drawn.
>>> Supporters of Conservative candidate Rob Moore naturally took the blue
>>> chairs on the right of the rink floor while John Herron's Liberalswent
>>> left. There were splashes of orange, supporters of NDP Pat Hanratty,
>>> mixed throughout. Perhaps the loudest applause came from a row towards
>>> the back, where supporters of independent candidate David Amos sat.
>>>
>>> The debate was moderated by Leo Melanson of CJCW Radio and was
>>> organized by the Sussex Valley Jaycees. Candidates wereasked a barrage
>>> of questions bypanelists Gisele McKnight of the Kings County Record
>>> and Lisa Spencer of CJCW.
>>>
>>> Staying true to party platforms for the most part, candidates
>>> responded to questions about the gun registry, same sex marriage, the
>>> exodus of young people from the Maritimes and regulated gas prices.
>>> Herron and Moore were clear competitors,constantly challenging each
>>> other on their answers and criticizing eachothers’ party leaders.
>>> Hanratty flew under the radar, giving short, concise responses to the
>>> questions while Amos provided some food for thought and a bit of comic
>>> relief with quirky answers. "I was raised with a gun," Amos said in
>>> response to the question of thenational gun registry. "Nobody's
>>> getting mine and I'm not paying 10 cents for it."
>>>
>>> Herron, a Progressive Conservative MP turned Liberal, veered from his
>>> party'splatform with regard to gun control. "It was ill advised but
>>> well intentioned," Herron said. "No matter what side of the house I am
>>> on, I'm voting against it." Pat Hanratty agreed there were better
>>> places for the gun registry dollars to be spent.Recreational hunters
>>> shouldn't have been penalized by this gun registry," he said.
>>>
>>> The gun registry issues provoked the tempers of Herron and Moore. At
>>> one point Herron got out of his seat and threw a piece of paper in
>>> front of Moore. "Read that," Herron said to Moore, referring to the
>>> voting record of Conservative Party leader Steven Harper. According to
>>> Herron, Harper voted in favour of the registry on the first and second
>>> readings of the bill in 1995. "He voted against it when it counted, at
>>> final count," Moore said. "We needa government with courage to
>>> register sex offenders rather than register the property of law
>>> abiding citizens."
>>>
>>> The crowd was vocal throughout the evening, with white haired men and
>>> women heckling from the Conservative side. "Shut up John," one woman
>>> yelled. "How can you talk about selling out?" a man yelled whenHerron
>>> spoke about his fear that the Conservatives are selling farmers out.
>>>
>>> Although the Liberal side was less vocal, Kings East MLA Leroy
>>> Armstrong weighed in at one point. "You’re out of touch," Armstrong
>>> yelled to Moore from the crowd when the debate turned to the cost of
>>> post-secondary education. Later in the evening Amos challenged
>>> Armstrong to a public debate of their own. "Talk is cheap. Any time,
>>> anyplace," Armstrong responded.
>>>
>>> As the crowd made its way out of the building following the debate,
>>> candidates worked the room. They shook hands with well-wishers and
>>> fielded questions from spectators-all part of the decision-making
>>> process for the June 28 vote.
>>>
>>> Cutline – David Amos, independent candidate in Fundy, with some of his
>>> favourite possessions—motorcycles.
>>>
>>> McKnight/KCR
>>>
>>> The Unconventional Candidate
>>>
>>> David Amos Isn’t Campaigning For Your Vote, But….
>>>
>>> By Gisele McKnight
>>>
>>> FUNDY—He has a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket, a chain on his
>>> wallet, a beard at least a foot long, 60 motorcycles and a cell phone
>>> that rings to the tune of "Yankee Doodle."
>>>
>>> Meet the latest addition to the Fundy ballot—David Amos.
>>>
>>> The independent candidate lives in Milton, Massachusetts with his wife
>>> and two children, but his place of residence does not stop him from
>>> running for office in Canada.
>>>
>>> One has only to be at least 18, a Canadian citizen and not be in jail
>>> to meet Elections Canada requirements.
>>>
>>> When it came time to launch his political crusade, Amos chose his
>>> favourite place to do so—Fundy.
>>>
>>> Amos, 52, is running for political office because of his
>>> dissatisfaction with politicians.
>>>
>>> "I’ve become aware of much corruption involving our two countries," he
>>> said. "The only way to fix corruption is in the political forum."
>>>
>>> The journey that eventually led Amos to politics began in Sussex in
>>> 1987. He woke up one morning disillusioned with life and decided he
>>> needed to change his life.
>>>
>>> "I lost my faith in mankind," he said. "People go through that
>>> sometimes in midlife."
>>>
>>> So Amos, who’d lived in Sussex since 1973, closed his Four Corners
>>> motorcycle shop, paid his bills and hit the road with Annie, his 1952
>>> Panhead motorcycle.
>>>
>>> "Annie and I rode around for awhile (three years, to be exact)
>>> experiencing the milk of human kindness," he said. "This is how you
>>> renew your faith in mankind – you help anyone you can, you never ask
>>> for anything, but you take what they offer."
>>>
>>> For those three years, they offered food, a place to sleep, odd jobs
>>> and conversation all over North America.
>>>
>>> Since he and Annie stopped wandering, he has married, fathered a son
>>> and a daughter and become a house-husband – Mr. Mom, as he calls
>>> himself.
>>>
>>> He also describes himself in far more colourful terms—a motorcyclist
>>> rather than a biker, a "fun-loving, free-thinking, pig-headed
>>> individual," a "pissed-off Maritimer" rather than an activist, a proud
>>> Canadian and a "wild colonial boy."
>>>
>>> Ironically, the man who is running for office has never voted in his
>>> life.
>>>
>>> "But I have no right to criticize unless I offer my name," he said.
>>> "It’s alright to bitch in the kitchen, but can you walk the walk?"
>>>
>>> Amos has no intention of actively campaigning.
>>>
>>> "I didn’t appreciate it when they (politicians) pounded on my door
>>> interrupting my dinner," he said. "If people are interested, they can
>>> call me. I’m not going to drive my opinions down their throats."
>>>
>>> And he has no campaign budget, nor does he want one.
>>>
>>> "I won’t take any donations," he said. "Just try to give me some. It’s
>>> not about money. It goes against what I’m fighting about."
>>>
>>> What he’s fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood,
>>> the exploitation of the Maritimes’ gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to
>>> name a few.
>>>
>>> "The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs – fishing,
>>> farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I’m
>>> death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it
>>> (NAFTA) out the window.
>>>
>>> NAFTA is the North American Free Trade Agreement which allows an
>>> easier flow of goods between Canada, the United States and Mexico.
>>>
>>> Amos disagrees with the idea that a vote for him is a wasted vote.
>>>
>>> "There are no wasted votes," he said. "I want people like me,
>>> especially young people, to pay attention and exercise their right.
>>> Don’t necessarily vote for me, but vote."
>>>
>>> Although…if you’re going to vote anyway, Amos would be happy to have
>>> your X by his name.
>>>
>>> "I want people to go into that voting booth, see my name, laugh and
>>> say, ‘what the hell.’"
