What’s Really Happening in Ukraine Right Now?
NowMedia GroupAug 22, 2025
Insights into the Ukraine war Max Makavchuk is a 17 year old that is in Canada that may have to return to fight.
With
Sunday marking the 34th anniversary of Ukraine's independence, Max
Makavchuk and Denys Storozhuk recently sat down for an interview with
Jim Csek of NowMedia and shed light on the devastating impact of the
ongoing war in Ukraine.
Makavchuk,
who recently graduated from high school, described the dire situation
back home, where inflation has tripled prices, electricity is rationed
and vast areas of Ukraine have been destroyed.
“It’s not the real world anymore, it's just all destroyed,”
Makavchuk said about some areas back home, adding that his father and many friends are fighting in the conflict.
The
trio’s discussion also touched on recent peace talks and the meeting
between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump
in Anchorage, Alaska.
“It's
basically, it's more psychological war between Trump and Putin than
real diplomacy or anything,” said Storozhuk before adding he thinks
Trump wants to end the war, but does not care about the conditions of a
ceasefire.
Storozhuk
then explained that there is a strong sentiment in Ukraine to continue
fighting and not surrender any territories to Putin.
“He
(Trump) thinks if he can broker the deal where Putin and Zelensky sign,
whatever the conditions, that will be a victory for him, but in
Ukraine, it does not work like that. We were fighting for three years,
and we held every inch of our ground," said Storozhuk.
Watch
the above video to hear more about the trio’s discussion, including
immigration challenges some Ukrainians in Canada are facing, Ukrainian
Independence Day and much more.
You can contact Denys Storozhuk at 250-860-6774
On
Aug 27th I had never heard of these dudes but the YouTube channel on my
Smart TV began playing their 'Really Big Shows' and I did find them
interesting
I
called every number I could find for these dudes and left voicemails
When I got no response I sent two emails to their newsroom
News@nowmediainc.com
Not long after I got a text from
250 869 5787
Telling me to call
Jim Csek's cell
250 870 6594
I did and was not impressed or surprised so I told him I would not bother him again
Kelowna Ukrainian advocate hopeful for ceasefire as Independence Day marked

Canada’s support for Ukraine took centre stage on Ukrainian Independence Day, marked by a surprise visit from Prime Minister Mark Carney to Kyiv.
Denys Storozhuk, the founder of Kelowna Stands With Ukraine, who joined Phil on the Early Edition, reflected on the significance of the visit, noting Canada’s historic role as the first country to recognize Ukraine’s independence 34 years ago.
He said such measures are critical to ensuring stability in the region, especially as global attention turns to a high-stakes meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump in Alaska.
Storozhuk remains cautiously optimistic about the talks, hoping they could lead to a ceasefire.
On the ground, Ukraine has made significant strides, including the recent liberation of three villages in the Donetsk region. Storozhuk described the conflict as a “David and Goliath” battle, with Ukraine’s resilience bolstered by Western support, including Canada’s.
However, he stressed that increased aid could have expedited victory, allowing Ukraine to reclaim its sovereignty sooner.
The mood among Ukrainians, Storozhuk shared, is one of determination.
“They want the war to end but refuse to concede any territory to Russia,” he said.
Ukrainian soldiers, including two veterans now living in Kelowna, remain steadfast in their resolve to fight until victory is achieved.
Storozhuk expressed skepticism about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s intentions, describing him as a leader who thrives on conflict
Elsewhere in Kelowna, Storozhuk’s grassroots organization has been instrumental in delivering aid to the frontlines, recently sending a restored pickup truck to Ukrainian soldiers.
“Every drop counts,” he said, highlighting the importance of sustained international support.
Storozhuk also addressed the challenges faced by Ukrainians who have relocated to Canada during the war. Many are working multiple jobs to support their families both in Canada and Ukraine but face uncertainty as their temporary work visas near expiration.
“They’re not officially refugees, so they don’t receive government support, yet they pay taxes and contribute to the economy,” he said, criticizing Canada’s immigration policies for creating unnecessary stress.
To address these issues, Storozhuk is working on an electronic petition advocating for permanent residency for Ukrainians in Canada. He plans to share it widely once launched, emphasizing the need for policies that support those already contributing to Canadian society.

Okanagan man organizing support rally in response to Russian invasion of Ukraine
Denys Storozhuk says the gathering will take place in Kelowna at 4 p.m., in front of City Hall.
Storozhuk said he got the idea to hold a rally from his 19-year-old son after watching the invasion unfold Wednesday night.
“Everybody is shocked. My family is shocked. My friends and relatives in Ukraine … nobody expected … like everybody was thinking Putin was just bluffing in trying to push his agenda,” Storozhuk told Global News on Thursday.
“Nobody was really expecting it. Nobody was believing it would happen. And then the explosions started to go all over Ukraine.”
He added “when shells and missiles are coming, everybody is in danger. And, of course, what will happen next, that’s completely unpredictable.”
Storozhuk said all are welcome to attend the rally.
Wearing a yellow baseball cap with Ukraine in blue on the front, Storozhuk says he’s worried about how much blood will be shed.
“I think Putin’s plan is pretty much blitzkrieg, as Hitler did,” he said. “(Putin) is expecting that with a few strikes and a little invasion here and there, Ukraine will just capitulate, and we’ll accept the government that he wants.
“It won’t happen.”
Storozhuk says he’s sure it’s going to be a long military operation, and that guerilla warfare will occur.
“It’s not like the Second World War, when Germany invaded Poland and Russia. It’s different. In this case, you cannot distinguish (Ukrainians from Russians).”
Storozhuk says he’s half Russian and half Ukrainian and that he speaks both languages. He was born in Ukraine, living in eastern Europe for 30 years, before emigrating to Canada 21 years ago.
“It’s pretty much the same people,” he said of the conflict
On Thursday morning, Peter Bihun and his wife, Diana, intently listened to Canada’s condemnation of the invasion.
“Last night, watching those bombs come down scared me,” said Bihun, president of the Dolyna Ukrainian Cultural Society in Kelowna.
“We were almost afraid to get up this morning because we just didn’t want to see.”
What Peter and Diana were afraid to see was widespread bloodshed in the country they love so much.
“We didn’t want to see our country torn apart,” said Bihun, “and we didn’t want to watch people die.”
Also Thursday, Kelowna Mayor Colin Basran denounced Russia’s invasion.
“Today, I am deeply concerned about Russia’s attacks on Ukraine. We stand with the people of Ukraine and their democratically elected government, and all the Ukrainian-Canadians who call Kelowna home,” Basran said in a statement.
“We condemn Russia’s unprovoked attacks. As a community and as individuals, we need to denounce this senseless violence.
“We join B.C. Premier John Horgan and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in deploring this unwarranted and unprovoked aggression and echo the international community’s calls for de-escalation and an immediate resolution to the conflict.”

Ukrainian demonstration at Kelowna City Hall tomorrow at 2p.m.
Ukrainians are inviting others to the demonstration Feb. 27 at 2p.m. in front of Kelowna City Hall
All are invited to attend a demonstration in support of Ukraine in Kelowna at City Hall tomorrow, Feb. 27, at 2 p.m.
Ukrainian-Canadians living in Kelowna are asking for support from the Okanagan community after Russia launched a wide-ranging attack on Ukraine on Thursday, Feb.24.
Denys Seorozhuk, organizer of the protest is extending an invitation to all people, no matter their background or political affiliation.
Seorozhuk said that Russian and Georgian people came to the demonstration on Feb.24 to show their support for Ukraine.
READ MORE: Kelowna Ukrainians ask for government support after Russian invasion
Supporters are urging Canadians to listen to the requests from the Ukrainian ambassador to Canada.
Ambassador Andrii Bukvych said “our primary request is helmets, armoured jackets, firearms and ammunition.”
“We need sanctions that would fundamentally undermine the ability of the Russian economy to finance aggression and war.”
Bukvych said that the Canadian government also needs to urgently impose strict sanctions to impact President Vladimir Putin and Russian oligarchs.
Seorozhuk, the organizer of the demonstration, said that Canada and allied forces need to send troops to the border of Ukraine “to show Putin that this isn’t going to be easy.”
Peter Bihun, president of the Dolyna Ukrainian Cultural Society, said “Write your MLA and MP. Make sure that Canada is solidly behind this.”
“I hope that with our little voices here, we can somehow encourage support from Canada,” said Vsevolod Lynov, a Ukrainian-Canadian, worried for his loved ones back home.
Support can be sent to the Emergency Humanitarian Aid to the People of Ukraine, organized by CNEWA Canada. Support for the beleaguered Ukrainians can also be sent through the Ukrainian Canadian Congress and Canada-Ukraine Foundation, who have established a humanitarian fund.

Mounties lower flag on 55 years at detachment on Doyle Avenue
Ron Seymour Jun 27, 2017
An RCMP parade covered just 750 metres Tuesday in Kelowna, but it
symbolized a move 55 years in the making that came at a cost of $48
million.
Two dozen members in red serge marched from the Doyle Avenue
detachment, built in 1962, to a new police services building at the
corner of Clement Avenue and Richter Street.
“It was time for a new building with proper working conditions for the
RCMP,” Mayor Colin Basran said during opening ceremonies for the new
100,000-square-foot detachment.
The Maple Leaf flag outside the Doyle Avenue detachment was lowered
and carried to the new one, where it was put into storage rather than
hoisted again.
“In preserving the flag, we pay our respects to those who served the
city in the past,” Kelowna RCMP Supt. Brent Mundle told the large
crowd of police, retired officers, city officials and interested
members of the public who attended the opening ceremony.
A new flag was raised by Const. Conrad Erbes, the newest member of the
Kelowna RCMP, who joined the detachment on June 15.
Jim Stuart, mayor of Kelowna from 1986 to 1996, was on hand for the
event, as were two former Kelowna RCMP detachment commanders, Dave
Roseberry and Bill McKinnon.
Although the old detachment had been expanded and modernized several
times over the years, it was considered too small and not equipped
with state-of-the-art facilities.
“I heard many a tale of mice in the building and other (poor) working
conditions,” said Brenda Butterworth-Carr, commanding officer for the
RCMP in B.C.
Before the ceremony, Westbank First Nation elder Wilfred Barnes
performed a cleansing ceremony “to clear the space of negative energy
and bless the building,” those in attendance heard.
Pastor Tim Schroeder, a former member of the Kelowna RCMP auxiliary
and the detachment padre, said the new building will be a place
representing peace, safety and security for decades to come.
“Those who are bent on doing wrong are not going to like this place,”
Schroeder said. “But to the law-abiding majority, this is a great
place.”

Kelowna RCMP name new top cop
Insp. Kara Triance will be promoted to superintendent this fall
Michael RodriguezAug. 19, 2020 3:00 p.m.Local NewsNews
The Kelowna RCMP has named its new top cop.
Insp. Kara Triance will be promoted to superintendent this fall,
assuming her duties as the Kelowna Detachment Commander for the
Regional District of the Central Okanagan which includes Kelowna, West
Kelowna, Peachland and Lake Country.
Triance has been with the RCMP since 2000, after studying sociology
and criminology at UBC. Her first assignment saw her serve five years
in Richmond.
She also served in Bella Bella and on the central coast of B.C., in
Vernon/North Okanagan including Armstrong and Falkland and with the
Federal Border Integrity Shiprider program in Victoria. Most recently,
Triance served as the first female officer in charge of the Sea to Sky
detachment, since November 2016.
According to chief superintendent Brad Haugli, South East District
commander Insp. Triance has policed Indigenous communities, large and
small municipalities, rural and isolated communities, as well as
international waters.
Triance is the co-chair of the B.C. Association of Chiefs of Police
(BCACP), Diversity and Inclusion Committee and serves on the executive
board for the B.C. Women in Law Enforcement (BCWLE) Association.
Kelowna Mayor Colin Basran said the city is pleased with Triance’s
appointment, believing her to be the right person to help the city
move through the social change it is experiencing.
“Crime reduction requires a collaborative approach and her willingness
to work with diverse groups across all areas of our community will
help bring about positive change,” said Basran.
Born and raised in Kelowna, Triance is looking forward to returning
home, where she will share her policing knowledge and experience
through employee and community engagement.
“I am honoured to have been selected to serve as the next officer in
charge of Kelowna RCMP Detachment.I have great expectations for
accountability and excellence in delivering policing services,” said
Triance.
Triance takes the position over from Supt. Brent Mundle, who will be
transferred to a position with the South East District management
team.

Ottawa convoy protest organizer Tamara Lich denied bail
Judge was not convinced she would go home and follow conditions

Tamara Lich, a major organizer of the so-called Freedom Convoy, was
denied bail Tuesday morning in Ottawa.
Lich, the Alberta woman behind a now-halted GoFundMe campaign that
raised over $10 million to support the protest in Ottawa, was arrested
and charged Thursday with counselling to commit mischief.
Before her arrest, she told journalists she wasn't concerned about
being arrested, didn't think the protest was illegal and also said her
bank account was frozen.
On Tuesday, the judge said she was not convinced Lich would go home,
stay there and stop her alleged counselling.
"This community has already been impacted enough by some of the
criminal activity and blockades you took part in and even led," said
Justice Julie Bourgeois.
"You have had plenty of opportunity to remove yourself and even others
from this criminal activity but obstinately chose not to and
persistently counselled others not to either.
"In Canada, every citizen can certainly disagree with and protest
against government decisions but it needs to be done in a democratic
fashion in abidance with the laws that have been established
democratically."
Set to return next week
Bourgeois said she found Lich to be guarded and "almost obstructive"
at times during the initial court appearance on Saturday and the judge
stated it was disturbing Lich didn't have a plan to get home after
other organizers started getting arrested.
Her husband Dwayne Lich, who would be responsible as a proposed surety
to report any breach of bail conditions, gave "unreliable and not
credible" evidence, Bourgeois found.
Tamara Lich, who Bourgeois says could face a "lengthy" stay in prison
if convicted, is scheduled to return to court on March 2.
Lich's lawyer Diane Magas confirmed to CBC Tuesday afternoon she plans
to seek an appeal of the decision to deny her client bail.
Downtown Ottawa is starting to return to normal after police flooded
the core over the weekend, towing more than 100 vehicles that didn't
leave and charging more than 100 people.
Businesses that had been forced to close are starting to reopen, light
rail is running again through downtown and the area controlled by
police checkpoints has shrunk.

Two of the most visible and vocal organizers behind the “Freedom
Convoy” protests remain in an Ottawa jail as Tamara Lich was denied
bail Tuesday and Pat King will wait until Friday to learn whether a
judge will grant his request to return to Alberta under bail
conditions.
Ontario Court Justice Julie Bourgeois said she believed there was a
substantial likelihood Lich would re-offend if released.
“I cannot be reassured that if I release you into the community that
you will not re-offend,” Bourgeois said. “Your detention is necessary
for the protection and safety of the public.”
Following the hearing, Lich’s Ottawa-based defence lawyer, Diane
Magas, said she was preparing a bail review application after her
client was denied her freedom and hoped the application could be heard
as soon as next week.
The judge cited the “immense” impact the convoy and the ensuing
occupation had on the community and said she believed Lich was
“obstinate” and “disingenuous” in her responses to the court during
her bail hearing on Saturday.
Lich appeared in court via a video link Tuesday, while King appeared
in person in a neighbouring courtroom, where his lawyer presented a
bail plan that includes a $50,000 bond from an Alberta woman who
acknowledged she had only known King for four weeks.
Kerry Komix, the proposed surety, also travelled to Ottawa to support
the demonstration.
Assistant Crown Attorney Moiz Karimjee, who led the prosecution in
both bail hearings, questioned the woman’s ability to act as a
reliable surety and suggested she shared the same ideology as King.

coronavirus disease (COVID-19) mandates that occupied Ottawa for three

The court was shown numerous videos of King’s own dispatches —
including his now infamous rants promoting racist conspiracy theories
— as he watched from the prisoner’s box wearing white pants and a grey
hoodie emblazoned with the word Odin.
He also wore a surgical mask at the court’s direction and was reminded
at one point by Justice of the Peace Andrew Seymour to wear his mask.
King was cautioned by his lawyer, Cal Rosemond, following an outburst
from the prisoner’s box early in the hearing and remained silent,
occasionally slouching in his seat or fidgeting with his mask for the
rest of the lengthy session.
Karimjee pointed to the “disturbing evidence” seen and heard in the
widely-circulated videos and told the court King, like Lich, presented
“a substantial likelihood” of reoffending.
King, 44, was arrested on Friday and faces charges of mischief,
counselling to commit mischief, counselling to commit the offence of
disobeying a court order and counselling to obstruct police.
Lich was arrested last Thursday and charged with counselling to commit mischief.
During the lunch break, King was also served with a statement of claim
in the $306-million class-action lawsuit against him, other organizers
and participants of the so-called “Freedom Convoy.”
Karimjee likened the incessant honking of trucker horns to “torture”
and said King, who often cited the phrase “Art of War” in his online
tirades, believed he was leading a war against government forces.
“He was at war with the City of Ottawa,” Karimjee said. “The noise was
a form of torture that was implemented on the citizens of Ottawa by
Mr. King (with) what can only be described as a sadistic laugh…
“Not only did Mr. King know, but it was his intention to use that
noise to get the federal government to negotiate and come to the
table. And, quite disturbingly, Mr. King was mocking, laughing at poor
Ottawans who were not able to sleep. He was saying, ‘We have achieved
our objective.’”
Under the bail plan proposed by his lawyer, King would return to
Alberta to live with Komix in a spare room in her home. The woman said
she is willing to put up $50,000 — approximately half the value of her
home — and told the court she would pledge the full value of the home
“if it was necessary.”
The bail plan would ensure King would be unable to communicate with
others to organize any further protests, Rosemond told the court.
“He’ll be stuck on house arrest” in rural Alberta with Komix, Rosemond
said, and as surety she would be limiting his access to the internet
by guarding the password and confiscating any cellular devices.
Komix told the court she is a light sleeper and has a dog.
“She’s going to follow your bail order to the letter of the law,”
Rosemond told the judge. “(King) is not in Ottawa under this bail
plan, and he doesn’t have access to electronic devices without his
surety looking over his shoulder — (one) who stands to lose a lot of
money if anything goes wrong with this bail plan.”
Seymour said he recognized the “vast” public interest in the case and
said he would render his decision Friday afternoon.
While she remains in custody, Lich was ordered to have no contact with
King or other convoy organizers Benjamin Dichter, Christopher Barber
and Daniel Bulford.
Lich has no criminal record and the mischief case against her has not
been tested in court.
Barber was granted bail and released on Saturday by the same judge who
denied bail in Lich’s case.
The judge gave him 24 hours to get out of town and banned him from
supporting the “Freedom Convoy” in any shape or form.

A second major organizer of the so-called Freedom Convoy will have to
wait a few more days before an Ontario Court of Justice judge decides
whether to grant her bail.
Tamara Lich, the Alberta woman behind a now-halted GoFundMe campaign
that raised over $10 million to support the protest in Ottawa, was
arrested and charged Thursday with counselling to commit mischief.
Police arrested another key leader, Chris Barber, on the same day. He
was released on bail Friday.
Before her arrest, Lich told journalists she wasn't concerned about
being arrested, didn't think the protest was illegal and also said her
bank account was frozen

At her bail hearing Saturday, Lich wore a black hoodie with white text
that combined a heart and maple leaf to read "I love Canadian oil and
gas."
She was also required to wear a medical mask, one of the mandates the
convoy has been fighting against, along with requiring COVID-19
vaccines to participate in certain activities like cross-border
trucking.
Crown attorney Moiz Karimjee focused on both Lich and her husband
Dwayne's ability to pay a proposed $5,000 bond if Lich breached any
conditions the judge may impose.
Lich, who lives in Medicine Hat, Alta., and her husband both work in
the oil and gas sector. Lich told the court she has no savings and few
assets, including a 2017 Jeep and 2018 Ford F-150 that they're
continuing to make payments on.
She also offered no suggestions how she would be able to make her way
back to Alberta if ordered to, since she travelled to Ottawa with
Barber, whose bail conditions include that he not communicate with
her.
Her lawyer, Diane Magas, later told court that one of the lawyers
representing Lich in a proposed $10-million class-action lawsuit
against protesters would be able to drive the couple back to Alberta,
allowing her to leave within the next week.

Husband travelled on private jet
Lich has been a major player in the demonstrations in Canada's
capital, which have lasted for more than three weeks and have
attracted international attention.
Ottawa police said Saturday they had made 170 arrests and towed 53
vehicles out of the occupation zone.
Dwayne Lich has been proposed to act as her surety, meaning he would
have to report if she breached any bail conditions.
In his testimony, he said he flew to Ottawa on Feb. 2 on a private jet
at a cost of $5,000, paid for by a "nice gentleman" named Joseph that
he'd only recently met.
"But he told me that my plane ride was taken care of, which was a
miracle," he told the court.
The Crown questioned Dwayne Lich on his ability to serve as surety,
given he'd been in Ottawa throughout much of the protests while his
wife had been recorded telling protesters to "Hold the line at all
costs."

core. (Reno Patry/CBC/Radio Canada)
While he said he didn't believe in the blockades or holding the line,
Dwayne Lich also said he didn't see anything wrong, equating the
blockades to a large traffic jam or parked cars in a snow storm.
"I don't see no guns. I don't see anything criminal as far as I can
see. I just see trucks parked," he said.
Dwayne Lich questions legality of Emergencies Act
He also questioned whether the Emergencies Act — which was debated
Saturday in the House of Commons — was implemented legally, at times
confusing the numbered amendments found in the U.S. Constitution with
Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
"Honestly? I thought it was a peaceful protest and based on my first
amendment, I thought that was part of our rights," he told the court.
"What do you mean, first amendment? What's that?" Judge Julie
Bourgeois asked him.
"I don't know. I don't know politics. I don't know," he said. "I
wasn't supportive of the blockade or the whatever, but I didn't
realize that it was criminal to do what they were doing. I thought it
was part of our freedoms to be able to do stuff like that."
He also began asking the court about whether the Liberal government
was legally allowed to implement the Emergencies Act.

hearing about his ability to act as her surety. (Laurie
Foster-MacLeod/CBC)
"Can you tell me if what they did is really legal? If this is
something that they can be doing or is it against everything that is
good and holy? I don't know," he said.
While the Crown argued his comments showed he might not recognize the
law, Magas asked him if he understood that any restrictions set by the
court would need to be followed, to which he said he did.
The Crown is arguing against bail for Tamara Lich, saying she's
already proven she has no respect for the law and that her husband's
testimony shows they have rich friends and could fundraise more money.
The judge is expected to make a decision Tuesday.

Subject: RE: Deployment of Emergencies Act expected to pass with
support of the NDP because of Trudeau's predictable confidence vote EH
AB?
To: David Amos <david.raymond.amos333@gmail.com>
Thank you for your email. My office has been inundated with similar emails.
On Monday February the 21st, the Liberals and NDP voted in favour of
the Emergencies Act and called the situation at hand a public order
emergency. It was the first time that this act has ever been used and
the act preceding the emergencies act was only used in WW1, WW2 and
the FLQ Crisis. This vote was specifically disturbing because it
occurred despite the fact that all of the cross border protests were
concluded and the one in Ottawa was disbursed and disbanding. It was a
dark day for personal freedoms and peaceful protests in Canada.
The Prime Minister appears to have made no effort to de-escalate the
situation. Instead, he has insulted and disrespected Canadians, and
then when it blew up, instead of apologizing and listening to what
people had to say, jumped straight to the most extreme measures to
deal with the protests.
Imposing powers of the Emergencies Act sets a dangerous precedent. The
Government of Canada included in its laundry list of powers the
ability to freeze the funds of those supporting the demonstrators.
Governments should not have the power to close the bank accounts of
hardworking Canadians simply on the suspicion of supporting causes of
which the government doesn’t approve. This is a slippery slope, and
not how the government should operate in a free and democratic
society.
Some of my comments are contained in this speech I delivered in the
House of Commons on behalf of constituents. It is worth watching as it
clearly shows where I stand and the actions that I personally took to
stop this government overreach. The video can be viewed here:
In an even more baffling turn of events, less than 48 hours after
voting to implemented the Emergencies Act the Prime Minister announced
on February the 23rd that the “situation is no longer an emergency”
and revoked the Emergencies Act. Although it is unnerving to even
consider that the PM would invoke the Act to silence his political
adversaries, I am thankful that the direct, powerful and prolonged
pressure by Conservative MPs and engaged constituents such as yourself
seems to have impacted his decision. In the words of our interim
Conservative Leader “Nothing has changed between Monday and today
other than a flood of concerns from Canadian citizens, bad press, and
international ridicule.”
This is not a win, our work is not over yet. What all Canadians need
now is a clear plan out of this pandemic by ending the mandates and a
return to normal life. Unfortunately, the Liberals and NDP are
unwilling to even discuss a plan for Canadians and unwilling to put
their political differences aside.
I will continue to be your strong voice in Ottawa and I hope that I
can continue to count on your support as I hold this government to
account for their actions.
Sincerely,
Glen Motz

Today on ‘The Really Big Show’ - Canada’s economy crashes into recessionary territory as political and social tensions mount. While one Liberal minister shows seriousness, the rest face criticism for secrecy, spin, and being out of touch. From the CRTC dismissing TV audiences as “only old people,” to X fact-checking Joly, the government faces ridicule at home and abroad. Meanwhile, Pierre Poilievre calls for Canadians to “Stand on Guard” as chaos unfolds in the streets of BC.

Liberal MP Greg Fergus elected Speaker of the House of Commons

Liberal MP Greg Fergus elected Speaker of the House of Commons
New Speaker's first task will be to help Parliament turn the page on
Yaroslav Hunka affair

Liberal MP Greg Fergus has been elected the new Speaker of the House
of Commons — and his first challenge will be to help Parliament turn
the page on the embarrassing Yaroslav Hunka incident.
Fergus, who represents the Quebec riding of Hull-Aylmer near Ottawa,
is the first Black Speaker of the Commons. He was picked by his
colleagues through a secret ranked-ballot vote.
In his pitch for the job, Fergus vowed to improve the decorum in the
Commons — something past Speakers have also promised with little
success.
Debates in the chamber routinely include nasty partisan bickering. MPs
also often flout the rules and heckling is a common tactic,
particularly in question period.
"Respect and decorum — I'm going to be working hard on this and I need
all your help to make this happen," Fergus said in his first remarks
from the Speaker's chair after being elected.
"Respect is a fundamental part of what we do here. We need to make
sure that we treat each other with respect and we show Canadians that
example. There can be no dialogue unless there's a mutual
understanding of respect."

Quebec Liberal MP Greg Fergus takes over the role of House Speaker
from Anthony Rota, who resigned after inviting a former Ukrainian
soldier who fought in a Nazi division to Parliament.
Speaking to reporters before the vote earlier Tuesday, Fergus was
asked about the prospect of becoming the first Black person in the
role.
"The historic nature of that is not lost on me," he said, adding
"that's not the reason why I'm asking my colleagues to vote for me.
"I'm asking them to vote for me because I'm the best candidate and
that I'm the person who can apply the rules, fairly, firmly and
consistently."

debates in the Commons — something past speakers have promised without
success. (Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press)
Fergus is a long-time admirer of Canada's Parliament.
He said Tuesday that, as a young person, he had the Hansard — the
official record of debates — delivered to his home.
In 1988, he came to Ottawa to serve as a parliamentary page — fetching
water for MPs and delivering letters, among other tasks.
One of those MPs Fergus worked with decades ago was Bloc Québécois MP
Louis Plamondon, who presided over the Speaker's election today as
"Dean of the House" — the MP with the longest unbroken sitting record
who isn't a minister or party leader.
Fergus is known as a loyal Liberal. He served as president of the
Young Liberals of Canada in 1990s.
In 2007, former Liberal leader Stéphane Dion named him national
director — the most senior role in the party's organizational
hierarchy. In that position, he helped prepare the party for an
election through fundraising and get-out-the-vote mobilization.
Fergus, first elected in 2015, served as Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau's parliamentary secretary — a testament to the close
relationship he enjoys with the head of government.
Trudeau and his cabinet gave Fergus a standing ovation as he assumed
the chair at the front of the Commons.

Justin Trudeau says MP Greg Fergus's election as the first Black
Speaker of the House 'should be inspiring to all Canadians, especially
younger generations who want to get involved in politics.'
"We elected you to help us be civil in our debates, to remind us we're
all here for the same reason, which is to serve Canadians," Trudeau
said.
"Canadians expect us all to work together to deliver results. They
expect us to behave to the highest standard."
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Fergus's election was "an
incredible achievement."
He said Canadians are depending on Fergus to keep the government honest.
Who's in, who's out and everything else you need to know about the
Speaker election
Anthony Rota resigns as Speaker after honouring Ukrainian veteran
who fought with Nazi unit
Recounting the origins of parliamentary democracy in the United
Kingdom, Poilievre said: "The first commoners met in fields. They were
the peasants and the farmers who were tired of having their crops
taxed away by an impossibly cruel crown. Today we have a similar
circumstance with a government that is excessively powerful and
costly."
"The role of Parliament in restraining the power of the prime minister
is primordial," Poilievre said.
Fergus has been an advocate for social housing and seniors.
He served as a member of the board of directors of the Aylmer Arms, a
residence for semi-retired and retired seniors, and as a member of a
local parish council.
Previously, he was vice-president of a neighbourhood association and
was also involved with school committees, sports teams and
organizations promoting regional interests.

Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press)
Like some other Liberal MPs, Fergus has been known to filibuster
Commons committee hearings on various government mishaps — such as the
hearings on the WE Charity scandal.
During one contentious meeting about an ill-fated COVID-era summer
student jobs program partnership with that non-profit, Fergus spoke in
Latin and cited ancient Greece to run out the clock, and called the
opposition-backed inquiry a "fishing expedition."
Earlier this year, the ethics commissioner found Fergus violated the
Conflict of Interest Act by writing a letter of support for a
television channel's application to the CRTC for mandatory carriage.
Under parliamentary rules, MPs can write letters of support to the
CRTC in support of an application, but parliamentary secretaries and
cabinet ministers cannot.
Fergus apologized for what he called his "unintentional error."
The Speaker election was prompted by Anthony Rota's decision to vacate
the chair after taking full responsibility for inviting Hunka — a
98-year-old veteran of a Nazi unit — to participate in the celebration
of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during his recent visit.
Fergus beat out P.E.I. Liberal MP Sean Casey, Nova Scotia Conservative
MP Chris d'Entremont, Ontario NDP MP Carol Hughes, B.C. Green MP
Elizabeth May, Quebec Liberal MP Alexandra Mendès and Quebec Liberal
MP Peter Schiefke for the job.

The Deputy Speaker was the Conservative running. Speaker is a
non-partisan role. The Liberals sued Speaker Rota, a Liberal MP, as a
pressure tactic to avoid fulfilling a demand by the Commons for
documents.

0:34
federative Mr Amos welcome good even do
0:36
today to my fellow Maritimers and I'll
0:39
begin with mr. dick right at Halifax
0:41
I'll begin with you because the Green
0:42
Party is in fact unique among all of the
0:44
other parties in that you have
0:45
candidates in all 308 ridings and
0:48
significant albeit single-digit support
0:50
in most of the polls and yet it seems
0:52
the Green Party is battling for
0:54
acceptance and attention what exactly is
0:56
the problem there just right so I think
0:58
you find a real distinction between be
0:59
the national perspective in the local
1:02
perspective because uh nationally the
1:05
big three big five private corporations
1:08
of the side who doesn't does not
1:09
participate in debate the Green Party's
1:11
being excluded Steph certain takes on
1:13
who they want to be included however at
1:15
the local level I know I've gone firstly
1:17
and from the other pendants I've spoken
1:19
to overwhelming ways we've been include
1:21
in the debate we've gotten tons of press
1:23
coverage so I think the green party
1:24
really is emerging as a viable
1:26
alternative to the old pre party or the
1:28
old platforms let me ask you you're a
1:30
young man will do subtracted youth the
1:31
green boys wouldn't feel can you go the
1:33
Green Party is that it has new ideas
1:35
looks not just the short term but also
1:37
the long term we're not just both
1:39
environment although as the Sierra Club
1:41
canada reason we said we do have the
1:43
best environmental platform we're also
1:45
forgot the social policy we believe in
1:47
universal public health care pharmacare
1:49
daycare we healthcare we look not just
1:51
the short term but also look at our
1:54
institutions prevention dealing with
1:57
obesity we're also fiscally responsible
1:59
which means balanced budgets and smart
2:01
taxation and again that environmental
2:03
emphasis because we can't drink the
2:05
water and breathe the air than the other
2:07
platforms other policies don't really
2:08
matter fair enough mr. Pownall ODU your
2:10
party is i repel was founded by Paul
2:12
Hellyer who in his lifetime was a
2:13
liberal and I could
2:15
leadership candidate for both of those
2:16
parties what appeals are you about about
2:19
the caap it's the monetary reform policy
2:23
and to give you a small example Steve
2:25
just does it to help you understand the
2:26
use of the Bank of Canada today as
2:29
opposed to the way we use the previous
2:30
1974 today to Bank of Canada that holds
2:33
about five percent of national debt
2:35
because of that it turns over two
2:37
million dollars that have two billion
2:38
dollars of your excuse me profit back to
2:40
the government or back to all Canadians
2:42
what we say is if we went back to the
2:44
pre-1970 full of course we're at times
2:46
be held for the one percent we would be
2:48
turning over 8 billion dollars in profit
2:50
back to government and as we go higher
2:52
the more for more money we would get and
2:54
if therefore we would define all our
2:57
social programs so for you it's all
2:58
about the monetary policy yes it is mr.
3:00
Anderson fredericton even with 15
3:02
registered parties in the country
3:03
representing many and varied
3:05
philosophies you are running free of
3:06
party affiliation as an independent why
3:08
are you independent and what are you
3:10
independent prompt I'm a very
3:13
independent character in I last time
3:16
when i ran for prom in 2004 I proved my
3:20
integrity to all parliamentarians and
3:22
legions of lawyers in public service now
3:25
I demand they prove their integrity me
3:28
before I sue the crown in federal court
3:31
here in private what are you gonna shoot
3:33
for no false imprisonment while I was
3:37
running for Parliament last time I was
3:39
summoned in the United States of America
3:41
false in prison without being read my
3:43
rights and held into the charges of
3:45
bother now as you know mr. Ramos
3:47
independent candidates in our country
3:48
usually don't get elected what message
3:51
are you sending to to the voters of
3:52
Frederick didn't just buy one not just
3:56
fredericton but I first must apologize
3:58
the folks in ormoc today expecting to
4:00
see me right now but the country in
4:02
general in Maritimes in particular
4:05
please stress test the integrity of the
4:08
Parliamentarians before you elect them
4:11
because after Lou there they are not
4:13
accountable how do you stress test the
4:15
integrity of a politician ask them what
4:17
I'm talking about mr. Pablo even with a
4:21
party label you're facing a pretty steep
4:24
battle as well how much of what you do
4:26
you know running putting yourself out to
4:28
the people of Boston is really there's
4:30
really a protest of some sort no it's
4:33
not a protest at all i think i think i
4:35
have a fair chance at winning there's a
4:37
four to six percent undecided voters
4:39
right now and I'd like to say that if I
4:41
wasn't like definitely the pearl would
4:42
that be the only one among the
4:43
candidates you never feel any better you
4:46
know what's going to be minority
4:47
government you know the leaders of the
4:49
whatever it might earn together what's
4:50
gonna have to negotiate for votes I've
4:52
quit something for smaller parties just
4:54
in I believe I can do that thanks on the
4:56
job both well let's talk about power
4:57
with Nick right in real terms what would
5:00
even a small rump of green MPs be able
5:03
to accomplish in a parliament that would
5:05
still be dominated by you know the
5:07
massive caucuses perhaps even a majority
5:09
talk so one of the other parts just
5:12
getting the the green voice in
5:14
Parliament is an important opponent
5:16
right now as I was saying we're not
5:17
looking at the long term we're just
5:18
looking at the short term so we need to
5:20
get that social aggressive policy that
5:22
this responsibility what you don't see
5:24
in that combination with the other
5:25
parties we have to have a strong
5:26
environmental message we have to ship
5:28
ship their subsidies away from the
5:30
Golden gas industries towards renewable
5:32
resources we have to focus on health not
5:35
just health care and generally we have
5:37
to start thinking the long term and
5:39
serve looking towards sustainability and
5:41
I should add that in this election and
5:44
then last which is a first each vote
5:46
gets a dollar 75 per year you know so it
5:49
is important to pick you both the Green
5:50
Party you're not just supporting our
5:52
progressive platform but you're also
5:53
builds a better Monica structure
5:55
absolutely I want to ask you to view
5:56
before I let you go when you consider
5:57
how many voters say they're disenchanted
5:59
with established parties why do you
6:00
think more people don't vote for
6:02
alternative parties and independents
6:04
like yourselves and I'll begin with you
6:06
Nick right why do you think more people
6:07
don't vote for parties like the green
6:10
party well for wine we're not including
6:11
the national debate and people are aware
6:14
of the platform then clearly they can't
6:15
come educated about it and both the
6:17
parties so I think awareness is the
6:19
fundamental issue mr. problem why do you
6:21
think historically Canadians have enough
6:23
to devote for your party and other
6:24
parties in the alternative category well
6:27
I think they just don't think there's a
6:28
chance that we work for our government
6:30
but you gotta start somewhere so I would
6:32
ask people great a monkey to have the
6:34
courage
6:35
this time around david amos why don't
6:37
people vote for independence i think you
6:38
make a strong case you know you're
6:40
independent you're free of all of the
6:41
external influences y know people choose
6:42
to vote for an independent voice like
6:44
yours more often most folks vote for the
6:47
color of the coat I'm begging the people
6:50
that have never voted in your life like
6:52
me to please vote and consider me a one
6:57
independent can keep all
6:59
parliamentarians accountable did you say
7:02
you've never voted never in my life sir
7:04
you don't even vote for yourself I this
7:08
time I would like to vote for myself but
7:10

7:12

0:14
we had a gentleman who called
0:16
identifying himself as david from sussex
0:19
david go right ahead please hey tom
0:21
thanks put me on the air i was trying
0:24
hard to talk to you and duff at the same
0:26
time
0:27
as
0:28
i was calling i heard him say about
0:31
when the prime minister designate gets
0:33
sworn in
0:35
and when everybody starts their job in
0:37
the gray area and stuff like that
0:40
well
0:41
i was somewhat murky of the rules myself
0:44
so i called the speaker of the office uh
0:47
speaker of the house rather peter
0:48
milliken yes yesterday
0:51
to get the load down of it because if
0:53
you pick up the phone right now and call
0:55
a
0:56
uh
0:57
here
0:58
uh pettigrew or ann mcclellan even
1:01
though they weren't reelected
1:02
they're still
1:04
minister of public safety and minister
1:06
of foreign affairs today right until
1:09
they're replaced
1:10
until they replaced right and the
1:12
cabinet gets sworn in
1:14
on the six
1:15
and it's all the big mystery who
1:17
who's the deputy prime minister of the
1:19
minister of justice etc etc yeah we
1:22
won't know until uh
1:23
until they walk in yeah but the problem
1:26
is i don't i don't think it's any secret
1:28
who the deputy prime minister is i think
1:30
everybody knows who that is uh it's kind
1:32
of up in the air that there was that
1:34
lawrence guy on tv last night yeah
1:36
cannon yeah
1:38
but peter mccabe by all reports may be
1:42
minister of justice and then there's
1:43
toads out in the
1:45
west
1:46
yeah
1:48
yeah yeah
1:49
but that said um
1:51
who ruled the ruth and wynn
1:54
was a question i needed to answer
1:57
from the queen because even though the
1:59
queen is the figurative head of the
2:00
state
2:02
the speaker of the house speaks for her
2:04
yes
2:04
and everyone in parliament addresses her
2:07
through him
2:09
yeah her through him yes
2:12
now peter milliken is a liberal yes
2:15
he remains speaker of the house
2:18
until
2:20
the governor general gives her speech
2:22
from the throne
2:23
and the 39th parliament begins okay
2:27
it's kind of real weird
2:30
you know what i mean yeah so
2:33
in a sense yes there's a new cabinet
2:35
coming in but everybody has to deal with
2:37
the liberal
2:39
peter milliken
2:40
until
2:42
michelle jean gives her speech from the
2:44
throne whenever that is and and even the
2:47
speaker of the house was not sure when
2:49
that was going to happen yesterday right
2:52
so this is a very there's probably only
2:55
one person who knows exactly
2:58
and i'm quite sure that she doesn't even
3:00
know yet when exactly the speech on the
3:02
phone will occur and that would be the
3:04
prime minister
3:06
the governor general is the one that
3:07
said so well nobody actually picks the
3:10
day
3:10
well oh okay
3:12
she picks the day after he says to her i
3:16
think this is the day we ought to do it
3:17
and she will agree i think that's well
3:19
he goes he goes to her yes with his new
3:22
cabinet yes and he says ma'am
3:25
i think i can run a government yes
3:28
and she says yeah i think so too i'll
3:32
give a speech and we'll let the 39th
3:34
parliament begin and then the 38th
3:37
parliament
3:38
selects a speaker of the house and that
3:40
could be a liberal
3:42
uh yeah it well it could be it could be
3:45
but it's not likely to be yeah because
3:47
usually the the ruling party has the
3:50
speaker the house control the show yeah
3:52
and everybody addresses him and like
3:54
peter milliken he saved paul martin on
3:56
the 19th yes because he was the one that
3:59
cast the deciding vote yeah yeah yeah
4:01
but normally what happens is despite the
4:04
fact that the speaker of the house is
4:06
chosen uh from the by the members of the
4:09
uh of the house but of the whole house
4:12
of the whole house to hold out that
4:14
degree yeah absolutely not at the
4:16
majority i should say no no
4:17
they'll vote yeah i mean there could be
4:19
three or four or five different people
4:21
who will let their names stand for the
4:23
speaker and and then they do all kinds
4:25
of political maneuvers exactly exactly
4:29
so the thing is but just a minute let me
4:31
just say this before you go ahead but
4:32
despite the fact that mr milligan is is
4:35
a liberal because he was elected as a
4:37
liberal he's generally recognized as
4:40
being independent whoever the speaker is
4:44
supposedly supposedly
4:46
oh absolutely yeah i'm not now i would
4:48
think the fine man
4:50
to make the speaker of the house
4:53
if both all parties
4:56
were clever
4:58
would be none other than the only
5:00
independent
5:02
and that way they could set them up now
5:03
that would be the clear the clever thing
5:05
to do well
5:06
andre arthur speaker the house yeah uh
5:10
and that was the wicked yeah but i don't
5:12
think uh i don't happen on pipe dreaming
5:15
yeah but if they were clever that's what
5:17
they would do
5:18
because he is the loose cannon on deck
5:22
but you see
5:23
the speaker of the house
5:25
is generally uh not supposed to express
5:29
exactly an opinion exactly that's how
5:31
they could keep them quiet well you're a
5:33
talk show
5:35
and you know how spoken here oh
5:37
absolutely
5:38
and like he is one of my minor heroes
5:41
yeah but he might he might be the first
5:44
guy ever in the history of that job to
5:47
politicize the job of being the speaker
5:49
of the house exactly you know
5:52
i was talking to his assistant yesterday
5:57
andrea arthur's yes
5:59
because he's the guy
6:01
i think
6:03
might protect democracy for you and i
6:06
and as a radio talk show host you just
6:09
got to agree
6:11
but now
6:12
now now the thing about it is is
6:15
uh
6:16
there's this magic time between
6:20
one prime minister and another
6:23
and
6:25
i think once i say a little more you'll
6:27
understand who i am
6:29
but my beef is with mr duff connector
6:32
because he's a lawyer you're not
6:35
he's an officer of the court
6:37
you're not
6:39
now on
6:40
august 25th
6:42
of 2004
6:44
i sent duff connector who is the lawyer
6:47
associated with ralph nader yep that's
6:50
correct
6:52
ralph nader knows exactly who i am
6:56
jeff connector received confirmed canada
6:59
post he got it i mailed it august 24th
7:03
he got it received it
7:05
now
7:06
he is very outspoken four years he's the
7:08
guy that
7:10
took on howard wilson when howard wilson
7:13
said that paul martin must be okay over
7:15
tainted blood years ago because we
7:17
couldn't find the records of the meeting
7:20
and then when howard wilson quit bernard
7:23
shapiro was a big secret for a long time
7:27
but duff connector i've read most of his
7:30
words that i consider important and his
7:33
complaints in various courts
7:36
he's a very interesting lawyer to me
7:39
now i sent him the same stuff that i
7:42
delivered in hand to something
7:45
all the brunswickers should have been
7:47
interested in and that was the
7:48
commission on legislative democracy
7:51
and the lawyer there
7:53
who i addressed was lynn caston gay now
7:57
she teaches law in moncton
7:59
and bernard lord had appointed that
8:02
commission
8:03
to see if democracy was being served in
8:05
new brunswick
8:07
right
8:08
so i went to fredericton
8:10
on the 25th speak with my wife a yankee
8:15
and a lawyer
8:17
who wanted to be the conservative in
8:19
fundy
8:21
instead of rob moore
8:23
right
8:24
and
8:25
we went around and i served lynn
8:27
castengae the lieutenant governor chasan
8:30
who answered me
8:32
the law of society who answered me
8:36
and then we went to visit the police
8:37
commission in fredericton on king street
8:41
i've received many answers but not from
8:44
jeff conaker
8:46
and lynn castonguay
8:48
now duff
8:50
knows
8:52
the sincerity of my efforts
8:54
and the magnitude of the crime
8:58
and did nothing because he is quite
9:02
simply
9:03
just another
9:05
lawyer
9:06
he is part of the corruption
9:09
that he claims to lament greatly about
9:14
now
9:15
amongst many things that i served
9:19

Wright's $90K offer to Mike Duffy had conditions, RCMP say
Duffy told not to talk to media in exchange for money
By Meagan Fitzpatrick, CBC News

Duffy expense saga still riles CBCNews.ca readers
Senator Mac Harb repays $51K in expenses
Brazeau's Senate salary to be docked 20% to repay expenses
Senator Brazeau unlikely to repay expenses by deadline
Nigel Wright's $90,000 payment to cover Senator Mike Duffy's expenses was
offered only with certain conditions, according to court documents that also
show several people in the Prime Minister's Office knew about the offer.
New details about the payment and the circumstances around it are contained
in an application to the court by the RCMP seeking documents from the Senate
and other material for its investigation of Duffy's expense claims.
RCMP investigator Cpl. Greg Horton wrote he has reasonable grounds to
believe Duffy committed breach of trust and fraud on the government because
of inappropriate expense claims and because he accepted the money from
Wright.
a.. Who's who in the Senate expense controversy
Wright was Prime Minister Stephen Harper's chief of staff who resigned over
the matter once it was reported in the media in May.
The RCMP met with Wright's two lawyers on June 19, and they revealed that
while there was no written contract between Wright and Duffy, Wright asked
for two conditions to be met in return for the $90,000: that Duffy stop
talking to the media and that he reimburse the government immediately with
the money.
The lawyers, Patrick McCann and Peter Mantas, said Wright was not directed
by anyone to make the offer, that he believed it was the ethical thing to do
so that taxpayers weren't on the hook, and that he and Duffy were not
friends.
But the decision came only after the Conservative Party of Canada considered
paying the bill for Duffy's inappropriately claimed expenses when it was
thought he owed $32,000. The party has a fund controlled by Duffy's
colleague in the upper chamber, Senator Irving Gerstein.
When the amount owed jumped to $90,000, the party decided it was too much to
cover. Duffy was concerned he didn't have the money to cover the
reimbursement, the lawyers told the RCMP, and he was also worried that if he
didn't claim a primary residence in Prince Edward Island, his eligibility
for a Senate seat would be at risk.
Some PMO staff knew
Senators Patrick Brazeau and Mac Harb have been asked to pay taxpayers back
for housing and travel allowance claims. Harb paid $51,000 back on Friday.
a.. Read about Harb's repayment
Wright didn't offer to cover their expenses, the lawyers said. He got a bank
draft from CIBC on March 25 that went to Duffy's lawyer, then Duffy wrote a
personal cheque to pay the government.
Harper says he didn't know about Wright giving the money to Duffy until it
was revealed in the media and in question period on May 28. The prime
minister said Wright made the decision on his own and kept the matter to
himself until May 15.
But the court documents say Wright let the RCMP know on June 21 that he told
Gerstein and three people in Harper's office that he was going to write
Duffy a cheque: David van Hemmen, Chris Woodcock, and Benjamin Perrin.
Perrin worked in the Prime Minister's Office as Harper's legal adviser and
some media reports have said he was involved in arranging the Duffy deal, a
claim he denies. Perrin issued a statement on May 21 saying he "was not
consulted on, and did not participate in" Wright's decision and that he
never talked to Harper about the matter. He recently left his job in the PMO
and is employed by the University of British Columbia.
Conditions attached
Van Hemmen worked as Wright's assistant and Woodcock is director of issues
management in the PMO.
The RCMP investigator says in the court document that he believes the
conditions attached to the payment offer back up the idea that there was an
agreement between Wright and Duffy involving the $90,000 and the Senate
report that ended up not being critical of the Prince Edward Island senator.
It has been reported in the media that Duffy agreed to say publicly he made
a mistake and was paying the money back in exchange for Wright actually
paying the money and a Senate report that would go easy on him.
This would amount to fraud on Duffy's part, according to the RCMP, and his
per diems and his housing allowance that he should not have claimed would be
breach of trust.
The documents lay out details of how the Senate report on Duffy's expenses
was amended by Conservative senators David Tkachuk and Carolyn
Stewart-Olsen. Stewart-Olsen was interviewed by the RCMP and said the report
removed the critical portions about Duffy because he had paid the money
back, she didn't know Wright actually paid the money, and that no one told
her and Tkachuk to change the report from its draft versions.
Duffy was reached by CBC News on Friday and said he had no comment. Wright's
lawyer said he is co-operating with the RCMP and has no further comment.
Harper's spokesman, Andrew MacDougall, was asked by CBC News to respond to a
long list of questions Friday including what role, if any, van Hemmen,
Woodcock, Perrin played and whether Harper knew his party was willing to pay
for Duffy.
"This file was handled by Nigel Wright and he has taken sole responsibility
for his decision to provide his personal funds to Duffy," MacDougall
responded, adding that the court document states Harper was not aware of the
offer and found out about it on May 15.
CBC News also asked Conservative party president John Walsh a series of
questions. Party spokesman Fred DeLorey responded instead by saying only
that the Conservative Fund did not pay for Duffy's expenses.
NDP MP Alexandre Boulerice said the details revealed by the court document
are "troubling." He said in an interview that Harper's version of events "is
just not true."
"It's not a personal issue between Mr. Wright and Mr. Duffy because there
was a first attempt to cover up this scandal by the Conservative Party," he
said.
Boulerice said he wants to know if Harper knew the party was going to pay
for Duffy and whether he asked his staff who was involved once the news
about Wright's payment broke.
"There's a lot of questions to answer now and Mr. Harper should do the right
thing and tell the truth," he said.
Heritage Minister James Moore said Friday that anyone who abuses the system
should be held accountable and should "leave public office with their head
hung in shame."
"I think when you see people like Senator Duffy or others taking taxpayers'
money, using it in an arrogant, irresponsible and perhaps illegal way, I
think taxpayers are rightfully upset, rightfully mad and they should be," he
told reporters at an event.
Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said it's curious that the Conservative party
would be willing to pay for Duffy to "make his problems go away" and that
Harper has not been transparent with Canadians.
"It's been a real disappointment and it's frustrating, quite frankly, to
have to be learning about what happened in the Prime Minister's Office
through a very serious police investigation, and this Prime Minister has
completely lost any credibility with the Canadian people because of his
mishandling of this scandal," Trudeau told reporters.

Subject: Small wonder the lady speaking for Bernard Shapiro believed me

kinda murky within Strategis at the time and nobody would respond to
me. Since my affairs in the USA are beginning to develop in a positive
direction, now Joe Day and the others are just starting to pretend
that they are ethical? Not on my watch. I have yet to find out who the

find out and forward him all that I will send to you. Good luck with

RE: Corruption
Hey Joe,
The fact that you said I was not worth voting for is no matter to me.
I just wish my fellow Canadians had the right to vote you out of your
job. That is one thing I agree with Mr. Lord about. To me you are just
another lawyer who couldn’t get elected so you were politically
appointed to a high government position for the benefit of Irving
interests. Now that you are in public service not only must you obey
the Code of Conduct of your chosen profession, you must act ethically
as a well paid federal employee and speak for the public good. Forget
your former employer’s interests and do your job.
It is time to check the work of many high officials and mine as well.
I demand that you study of the enclosed material then forward it all
to the Prime Minister Paul Martin. Ask him to forward copies of it all
to the other above named government employees and to the Arar
Commission in particular. I can easily prove prior contact to all the
above named persons or their offices and I believe they should be
expecting to see this stuff. The CD of the copy of wiretap tape
numbered 139 is served upon you as an officer of the court in
confidence in order that it may be properly investigated. I have given
you many more documents than the ones I will mention in the following
paragraphs. I will send a copy of this letter to many people as a
double check on your ethics.
One of the documents of foremost importance to me is a recent letter
Attorney General Brad Green sent to me dated August 3rd. It is
attached to the letter and all the other material I had delivered to
Bernard Lord and Frank McKenna just after Canada Day. I deem the
aforesaid letter to be so important because he is the first Canadian
public servant in any office to even admit knowledge my concerns and
allegations in two months of waiting for a proper response. His
position in public service and his answer forever prove just how bad
things really are in Canada and the USA. I am not sorry for the delay
in providing you with this material as I planned and stated within the
enclosed email. If you had wanted it, you would have returned my calls
or answered my email.
I had spoken to many people about my concerns as I ran for Parliament.
I made certain that the proper authorities knew of my allegations the
instant I was on Canadian soil. If our government was on the up and
up, someone should have sent the cops around to pick this stuff up or
at least ask me a few questions a long time ago. I cannot wait any
longer for my country to act properly in my defense. The Yankees now
want me in court.
The recent letter from Brad Green and the actions of some other bad
actors in Fredericton and the USA gave me cause to pause, rethink and
rewrite a bunch of stuff. One would think that Henrick Tonning, the
first judge that Green had ever appointed or the unnamed duty counsel
in court on the first day of Brad’s new plan to defend the rights of
the people would have informed him that I was very pissed off and
still in New Brunswick. The Sheriff who refused to identify himself in
Henrik’s court that day was more than willing to take me away and
under his jurisdiction. What province writes the Sheriff’s paycheck?
Even the local rumormill had enough time to generate enough gossip
from July 29th to August 3rd for Brad Green to be adequately informed
before he wrote such a ridiculous letter to me. Clearly Brad paid no
heed my fair warning to lawyers about making one false move. Maybe he
should call the former Attorney General in New Hampshire and ask Peter
Heed why he paid no heed to me. Now I will prove to both Mr Heed and
Brad Green that I wasn’t joking and that I am well within the
jurisdiction of law enforcement in both New Brunswick and New
Hampshire.
If the Fredericton City Police arrest me as I approach the legislature
one day very soon, Brad Green, Bruce Noble and I will have lots to
argue about in years to come in many courts. I will be filing a
complaint against them and several others with the Law Society anyway.
I am looking to hire an ethical lawyer to sue the bastards long before
the Law Society gets around to figuring out how to ignore my
allegations. What would you do if you were I? Do you know an ethical
lawyer that I can discuss this with? Or would I fare better if I acted
ethically in a Pro Se fashion?
My encounter with the Ombudsman, Bernard Richard proved much to me
about NB politicians. I didn’t believe what he said about Wayne
Steeves the second he mentioned Connie Fogal. He tried so hard to
argue about jurisdiction that he maintained Rule One of the Code of
Professional Conduct of the New Brunswick Law Society is not about
integrity but jurisdiction. No lawyer is that dumb and the last thing
I would want is such a man to speak for me. So I promptly told him I
would see him in court and ended our conversation. He was obviously
arguing against me for the benefit of Brad Green rather than making a
sincere and ethical effort to listen to me and address my concerns to
the powers that be on my behalf. Richard likely has few Liberal
friends to chum with. For all I know he may have just got back from
Larry’s Gulch so I allowed him to continue on the fishing expedition
byway of email. For his information just in case he is that dumb, I
brought up the subject of integrity so he would stop arguing
jurisdiction and act more ethically and diligently as a lawyer. When
he continued, I quit talking and sought proof of contact. Lawyers must
maintain their integrity no matter the jurisdiction or issue.
I can easily refute the jurisdictional argument of both Mr. Richard
and Brad Green. I am used to that legal dodge. Thirty-three years ago
a RCMP officer charged me with speeding by within the city limits of
Fredericton. When I questioned his jurisdiction the Crown was quick to
inform me that the RCMP have jurisdiction over everyone everywhere in
Canada. If I were to unbuckle my seat belt in defiance of a NB law as
I drove to Hampton to serve this material upon a lawyer employed as a
Senator in the federal government, in what court would I appear? What
if I served this material upon the cop that had the authority stop me?
If the matter was heard in Hampton or Sussex Provincial Court
shouldn’t Judge Henrik Tonning immediately recuse himself because of
his words to me in court on July 29th. Would I not have the right to
make a federal case out of what began as a seat belt offense and
change the jurisdiction to the USA?
A far better example is what happened on June 24th. A man who claimed
represent the Crown as the Sergeant at Arms in the New Brunswick
legislature claimed that he and the Fredericton PD had jurisdiction
over me and the right to throw me out of the public building. However
when I tried to give them this stuff as the Deputy Prime Minister Anne
McLellan and Attorney General Brad Green have both suggested, they
refused. What right did they have to do so? Should I file a complaint
against the Crown in the USA? I was thrown out of a building in NB.
Who defends the Crown if not Green?
Senator Day, make certain that Jack Hooper of CSIS sends someone to
see the priest, Bill Elliott and get the stuff I gave to him the night
of his debate on June 21st. Everybody in the churchyard watched that
old man holler at me as I gave it to him. Now Mr. Waldman can listen
to what Mr. Harper was harping about on June 22nd on the CBC, As I
told the priest there were three original wiretap tapes within that
envelope I gave him. The tapes are important evidence for the Arar
Commission. If nothing else their mere existence proves how far the
FEDS in two countries will go to cover things up. Let me know if the
priest denies he got them or Hooper won’t give them up, I have several
more hidden in Canada that the Arar Commission can have. Hooper can
hoop and holler about National Security all he wants. I must protect
my ass if he won’t, If you look at the photo I have provided, you will
see me talking to a RCMP officer that was guarding Harper in Sussex on
June 19th. Now you know what I was talking about to him. What I want
to know is that cop’s name. Harper wasn’t long spilling the beans to
his political advantage on CBC but his lawyers weren’t long shutting
him up on June 24th after Waldman demanded that he testify at the
Inquiry. Why is that?
Waldman should have known of me if Arar’s lawyers at CCR in the USA
had kept him properly informed. Rest assured that I did as soon as I
became aware of him. During our conversation I know I said enough for
him to check my words. His silence spoke volumes.
Mr. Arar’s lawyers had no fear of filing a complaint against Ashcroft
and the others in the USA after they received my stuff last November.
I see no further progress with that suit since it was filed last
January. Why have they ignored me? Did they make a deal and settle?
Why have they fallen so silent within the inquiry in Canada?
If you don’t believe me about what Mr. Harper knows, call Arthur
Hamilton and ask him about the little talk we had about this a little
while ago. Mr. Hamilton can never say he doesn’t know because I saved
his voicemail to me. I have no doubt that he has had a long talk with
our new MP Rob Moore by now. Why are they so silent?
I have many questions to ask Geoff Regan and Anne McLellan about the
Arar Commission. Geoff has no time to return my call but lots of time
to golf with Clinton and McKenna. I demand to know if the many
documents that caused the delay in the inquiry were mine. If not, why
not? I did do as Anne McLellan suggested and gave this stuff to both
Customs and Immigration the instant I landed in Canadian jurisdiction.
If I am not called to testify, I will never understand. I did manage
to talk to Veena Verma and she had no answers for me only arguments
about jurisdiction as usual.
Your friend, Mr. Zed can never say he don’t know because as you can
see I served his law office this stuff on June 25th the day before he
and John Herron greeted Paul Martin at the airport. After your review
of this stuff you must confess it is obvious to all why Paul Zed and
his friend Frank McKenna have been struck so dumb. Paul Zed was
elected to speak for that politically minded priest amongst others,
correct? Perhaps after they voted according to their conscience they
should act according to it as well.
I know that I have proved what everybody knows. The word of a lawyer
is worthless. Peter MacKay also proved that to all the true
Progressive Conservatives in Canada. The fact that another lawyer,
John Crosbie advised the former Alliance party on what to say is too
funny and sad for the words of this letter. One reason I came home and
ran for Parliament is to sooth my own soul because I found Mr. Harper
and his buddies to be a truly dangerous bunch of characters. Crosbie
did too for awhile anyway. Ain’t it funny how he now sings a different
tune? There is no doubt that the old lawyer Paul Martin is a
monumental a crook. The boat in Sidney proved that to me two days
after the election. He can play well within Mulroney’s league. It was
truly sad that so many Canadians were compelled to vote for Martin
simply because they were too scared that Harper may lead our country
down a garden path and under an evil Bush.
Perhaps the NDP should check my work closely and then help me expose
all the crooks in both the Liberal and Conservative camps. I will give
this stuff to their local lawyer leader Ms. Weir. Maybe it is time for
the NDP to shine for the benefit of all Canadians. Even though the NDP
have only 19 seats in Parliament I believe they have the power to
inspire a non-confidence vote and cause another election. I think the
NDP politicians should think about the following statement a long time
then review how they made out in the last election. I did say at the
Moss Glen debate that the NDP party was the best spot to place a vote.
However NDP people I know argued with me saying that if they did that
their vote would be wasted and Harper might get in, so they must vote
out of fear for a Liberal. Therefore I fall back on what I had said
during the Hampton debate in that every ballot should have one more
line on it "None of the above" then I am certain many more Canadians
would exercise their right to vote. Many did agree.
Senator Day I did come across your wife in the Canada Elections office
as she worked in support of Herron. Please don’t deny the fact that
the person seated beside your wife in Hampton laughed and applauded at
many of my remarks, Everybody heard what I said to Herron in front of
Rob Moore about suing him. Herron is foolish if he thought I was
kidding. Herron is a layman with few political friends. I spoke to him
very openly and honestly after the debate in Moss Glen. It should be
interesting to see whom he and Rob Moore manage to hire for lawyers to
defend them from my actions. I look forward to meeting a judge but I
am not certain I would be allowed a jury of my peers. Lawyers do have
an unfair stranglehold on Canadian justice. As you check my work, you
should see that I am out to shame all lawyers and the political ones
in particular. None of this would have been necessary if just one
lawyer had upheld their oath or one public servant had blown the
whistle. Why is not the question. The answer is Filthy Lucre.
Today is Friday the 13th. I am expected to stand in court in Boston
and argue allegations of criminal harassment made against me by a
lawyer who has practiced crimes against me. Clearly I am not making an
appearance. My kids and I will remain in this jurisdiction. I suspect
foul play and that it is a ploy to make me return to the USA. I have
little doubt that agents of the DHS would never allow me to appear in
that court. I notified everyone down in Boston that I look forward to
trial. Monday will tell the tale.
In closing I must say I considered myself a raging success to finally
break surface in the media and in an Irving owned newspaper of all
places. A former Irving lawyer needs no explanation as to the reason
for my joy. That said, let’s see if I can make the Internet work for
me in a grassroots sort of way. The Irvings are a little behind the
times in that regard. Although I do not wear a blue coat, I did give
the folks in Fundy one last chance to vote for a PC (Pissed off
Candidate) and I tried to do it in a fun fashion so that my efforts
would be remembered. Read the Kings County Record again to check my
words. As I watch the boob tube, I find the most honest reporting of
the political circus in America can be found on the Canadian comedy
shows. The stuff on Barack Obama, Ralph Nader, Melanie Sloan and the
Clintons should be pretty funny to you as well as you read the
documents I have provided. Now all I can say is Hooray for Canada and
thanks to the folks in Fundy that did vote for me. I am glad that at
least one percent understood and agreed with me. Quite likely not one
of them was a lawyer. Now I only need one lawyer in the right place in
government to do the right thing and things will change for the
better. Until that happens I will continue torturing lawyers with
dilemmas that a simple application of ethics could easily solve. It is
just a matter of time before one will break rank with the crooks and
become a truly honourable hero for the common man. As I said in my
first political speech I am a son of the Keith Clan whose roots can be
found in Fundy. Although I have separated myself from that Clan and
founded my own in order to declare a Blood Feud in my own name, I will
always honour from whence I came. I simply don’t care what lawyers or
politicians think of me Although I have no religion, I have faith in
my forefather’s motto "Veritas Vincit".
So what say you now, Senator Joe Day? Are you with me or against me?
Ignoring me just won’t do. Please send your answer to the following
address just as Brad Green did. I don’t know where I will be from day
to day these days. Like it or not you are all now witnesses to my sad
complaints. I demand an answer from you in writing even if it is to
refuse this demand to do your job. Your friend the Yankee lawyer,
David Lutz can turn his back on me then sneak away and try to hide but
you are a Canadian public servant now. You must answer me in a timely
fashion. I am part of the Canadian Public and a citizen that came to
your office in the constituency that I have been hanging my hat for
over two months. I demand assistance from the Senator appointed to
watch over us and expect you to act with the integrity that is
mandated by your license to practice law for a fee. Trust me, I am
wise to the delaying and denying game. Forget trying to argue
jurisdiction. I am here. What do you think? Should I run for Senator
if Lord manages to call an election for one? I can be reached by local
phone # 506 434-1379 but everything I say from here on out I want
recorded in the Public Record because it appears that lawyers think I
must sue the Queen in the USA. Do you think she will get pissed? The
reason question is can she afford the relief. Check the bottom line of
my first two complaints. Anne McLellan has made the Crown a
conspirator against me. Methinks she owes me three times the loss. Now
we all know the reason for the cover up. Too many lawyer/politicians
in Boston assisted the lawyer, Charles J. Kickham Jr. assist the ex
FBI agent William J. Kickham in his crimes against my Clan.
If any of the above named parties don’t like anything I have stated,
Please sue me. I dare ya. I promise I will not file any sort of motion
to dismiss the matter but I will demand a jury. I will call many
witnesses in my defense. I think the first one would be Mr. Harper.
Wouldn’t it be fun if he was a hostile one?

Certificate of Service
I, David R. Amos, a Canadian citizen presently within the jurisdiction
of the Province of New Brunswick in the County of Kings on Friday the
13th of August, 2004 delivered the above named material to the office
of Senator Joseph A. Day at 14 Everett St. Hampton, NB. I will also
email many people in many places the proof that this was done on this
day. Check into my beefs with the USPS and look at the news about the
Canadian Postal Service’s political issues with Paul Martin today and
it should be obvious why this is necessary for me to do in person.

MPs voting on new Speaker of the House of Commons today

Denmark summons top U.S. diplomat after reports of American influence operations in Greenland
Public broadcaster report indicated 3 Americans with ties to Trump administration raised suspicion
Report says Americans undertook influence operations in GreenlandDenmark's foreign minister has summoned the top U.S. diplomat in Copenhagen over Danish intelligence reports that U.S. citizens have been conducting covert influence operations in Greenland, the ministry said on Wednesday.
Public broadcaster DR cited unnamed sources as saying the government believed at least three U.S. nationals with ties to President Donald Trump's administration had been involved in influence operations aimed at promoting Greenland's secession from Denmark to the United States.
"We are aware that foreign actors continue to show an interest in Greenland and its position in the Kingdom of Denmark," Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said in a statement.
"It is therefore not surprising if we experience outside attempts to influence the future of the Kingdom in the time ahead," Rasmussen said.

Neither the broadcaster nor the ministry named the individuals flagged in the intelligence reports.
The U.S. embassy in Copenhagen did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Trump has picked Ken Howery, one of the founders of PayPal, as the new U.S. ambassador to Denmark, but he has yet to be confirmed by the Senate. The U.S. mission in Copenhagen is currently led by Charge d'affaires Mark Stroh, it said on its website.
Seen as strategically important
Trump has said he wants the U.S. to take over Greenland, a semi-autonomous Danish territory rich in minerals and strategically located in the Arctic, for reasons of national and international security.
His proposal has been firmly rejected in both Copenhagen and Nuuk, Greenland's capital. While Trump also has since expressed respect for Greenland's right to determine its own future, his comments about potentially taking the territory by force have fuelled uncertainty among its 57,000 inhabitants.
LISTEN l Aqqaluk Lynge, former Greenland lawmaker on U.S. rhetoric: (March 28):
Day 6
Greenlandic politician says his country is united and defiant in the face of Trump's threats to take over
As
Donald Trump renewed his threat to take over Greenland, U.S. President
JD Vance and his wife Usha Vance paid a visit to the country, leaving
many Greenlanders unimpressed. Aqqaluk Lynge, a former member of
Greenland’s Parliament and a former president of the Inuit Circumpolar
Council, says Greenlanders are confused and angry about Trump's
statements and are not about to back down.
At the same time, Denmark has sought to bolster its relations with Greenland, a former colony but now a self-governing territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, rallying European allies to counterbalance U.S. ambitions in the region.
In a show of solidarity, French President Emmanuel Macron visited Greenland in June and was greeted by hundreds of locals. That contrasted with the reception received by U.S. Vice President JD Vance in March, when protests forced him to visit a remote U.S. air base and scrap plans for his wife to attend a dog sled race.

Denmark's national security and intelligence service, PET, said in a statement it considers "that Greenland, especially in the current situation, is a target for influence campaigns of various kinds."
"This could be done by exploiting existing or invented disagreements, for example, in connection with known single issues or by promoting or reinforcing certain views in Greenland regarding the Kingdom of Denmark and the United States or other countries with a special interest in Greenland," it said.
It's the second time this week a U.S. diplomat has been summoned by a host.
France summoned American ambassador Charles Kushner after he wrote a letter to Macron accusing his government of not doing enough to stem antisemitic violence.
Kushner, who is Jewish and whose son Jared is married to U.S. President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka, published the open letter in the Wall Street Journal. In the letter, he urged Macron to more urgently enforce hate-crime laws and tone down criticism of Israel, saying French government statements about recognizing a Palestinian state have fuelled antisemitic incidents in France.
France's foreign ministry called the letter "unacceptable," in a statement.

Joly calls Canadian official's attendance at Russian Embassy event
'unacceptable'
Event at embassy in Ottawa was celebrating Russia Day
CBC News · Posted: Jun 13, 2022 8:15 AM ET
The flag flies outside the Russian Embassy in Ottawa on March 26,
2018. Canada's foreign affairs minister says a Canadian official's
decision to attend a reception there on Friday was 'unacceptable.'
(Justin Tang/The Canadian Press)
Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly says it was unacceptable for a
Canadian official to have attended a reception hosted by the Russian
Embassy and promised that no similar incidents would occur again.
The statement follows reporting by the Globe and Mail that Yasemin
Heinbecker, the deputy chief of protocol at the Global Affairs
department, attended a Russia Day celebration at the Russian Embassy
in Ottawa Friday night. The holiday commemorates Russia's
constitutional reform at the end of the Soviet era.
Heinbecker's attendance comes as Canada and its allies have pushed
back against Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which Moscow calls a
"special military operation."
"This is unacceptable. No Canadian representative should have attended
the event hosted at the Russian Embassy [and] no Canadian
representative will attend this kind of event again," Joly wrote in a
tweet Sunday night.
She reiterated that Canada continues to support Ukraine.
City of Ottawa denies 'outrageous' request to fly Russian flag
Questions linger over what will happen to Russian assets frozen,
blocked by Canada
A Global Affairs Canada spokesperson said the decision to send a
protocol officer to the reception was made by the department.
"No Canadian representative should have attended the event hosted at
the Russian Embassy and no Canadian representative will attend this
kind of event in the future," said the GAC statement.
"Russian officials will not be invited to Canada Day events hosted by
the department."
Diplomats from other countries attended
Russian Ambassador to Canada Oleg Stepanov said he appreciated
Heinbecker coming to the event.
"We believe diplomacy is an all-weather instrument and diplomatic
protocol is an important part of upkeeping the bilateral
communications. Diplomacy is about dialogue," he said in a statement.
"We don't look at Canada through the adversarial optic and are ready
to patiently wait when [Prime Minister Justin] Trudeau's cabinet or
the next government come to understand that it's in Canadian national
interest to pursue good-neighbourly relations with Russia."
The embassy said Joly was also invited to the reception and said
diplomats from other countries attended.
Since the assault in Ukraine began in February, the Canadian
government has imposed sanctions on individuals with ties to Russia
and sent military supplies, including ammunition, to aid Ukrainian
troops.
Last week, the RCMP disclosed that assets and transactions worth more
than $400 million Cdn have been sanctioned as a result of Moscow's war
on Ukraine.

Little David Amos’ “True History Of War” Canadian Airstrikes And
Stupid Justin Trudeau
Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide
behind Amerka’s and NATO’s skirts.
When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien
actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign
in Iraq, the Coalition of the Willing. This was against or contrary to
the wisdom or advice of those of us Canadian officers that were
involved in the initial planning phases of that operation. There were
significant concern in our planning cell, and NDHQ about of the dearth
of concern for operational guidance, direction, and forces for
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
less costly to deploy Canadian Forces to Afghanistan than Iraq. But
alas no one seems to remind the Liberals of Prime Minister Chretien’s
then grossly incorrect assumption.

@David R. Amos continued
Notwithstanding Jean Chretien’s incompetence and stupidity, the
Canadian Army was heroic, professional, punched well above it’s
weight, and the PPCLI Battle 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,
support, or vote of the Canadian Parliament.
What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling
chattering classes are too addled to understand is the deployment of
less than 75 special operations troops, and what is known by planners
as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a
deployment of a Battle Group, nor a “war” make.
The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have
the “constitutional authority” to commit the Canadian nation to war.
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
instance with the conservative majority in The Commons regarding a
limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.

@David R. Amos continued
President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror
attacks in New York; that the Taliban “occupied” and “failed state”
Afghanistan was the source of logistical support, command and control,
and training for the Al Quaeda war of terror against the world. The
initial defeat, and removal from control of Afghanistan was vital and
essential for the security and tranquility of the developed world. An
ISIS “caliphate,” in the Middle East, no matter how small, is a clear
and present danger to the entire world. This “occupied state,”
or“failed state” will prosecute an unending Islamic inspired war of
terror against not only the “western world,” but Arab states
“moderate” or not, as well. The security, safety, and tranquility of
Canada and Canadians are just at risk now with the emergence of an
ISIS“caliphate” no matter how large or small, as it was with the
Taliban and Al Quaeda “marriage” in Afghanistan.
One of the everlasting “legacies” of the “Trudeau the Elder’s dynasty
was Canada and successive Liberal governments cowering behind the
amerkan’s nuclear and conventional military shield, at the same time
denigrating, insulting them, opposing them, and at the same time
self-aggrandizing ourselves as “peace keepers,” and progenitors of
“world peace.” Canada failed. The United States of Amerka, NATO, the
G7 and or G20 will no longer permit that sort of sanctimonious
behavior from Canada or its government any longer. And Prime Minister
Stephen Harper, Foreign Minister John Baird , and Cabinet are fully
cognizant of that reality. Even if some editorial boards, and pundits
are not.

@David R. Amos Continued
Justin, Trudeau “the younger” is reprising the time “honoured” liberal
mantra, and tradition of expecting the amerkans or the rest of the
world to do “the heavy lifting.” Justin Trudeau and his “butt buddy”
David Amos are telling Canadians that we can guarantee our security
and safety by expecting other nations to fight for us. That Canada can
and should attempt to guarantee Canadians safety by providing
“humanitarian aid” somewhere, and call a sitting US president a “war
criminal.” This morning Australia announced they too, were sending
tactical aircraft to eliminate the menace of an ISIS “caliphate.”
In one sense Prime Minister Harper is every bit the scoundrel Trudeau
“the elder” and Jean ‘the crook” Chretien was. Just As Trudeau, and
successive Liberal governments delighted in diminishing,
marginalizing, under funding Canadian Forces, and sending Canadian
military men and women to die with inadequate kit and modern
equipment; so too is Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Canada’s F-18s are
antiquated, poorly equipped, and ought to have been replaced five
years ago. But alas, there won’t be single RCAF fighter jock that
won’t go, or won’t want to go, to make Canada safe or safer.
My Grandfather served this country. My father served this country. My
Uncle served this country. And I have served this country. Justin
Trudeau has not served Canada in any way. Thomas Mulcair has not
served this country in any way. Liberals and so called social
democrats haven’t served this country in any way. David Amos, and
other drooling fools have not served this great nation in any way. Yet
these fools are more than prepared to ensure their, our safety to
other nations, and then criticize them for doing so.
There is a lot more

15. INTERNET SCAMS – JOB OFFERS AND UK LOTTERY WINNINGS
The British High Commission is unable to confirm the legitimacy of
prizes or job offers received via e-mail; however we can say that
fraudulent offers of that nature are very common. You should be
extremely wary of any organisation that has approached you online,
especially if they request your personal details, documents or funds
via wire transfer. You should never submit personal information or
banking details via e-mail. If you think that you may be the victim of
fraud, you should report this incident to your local police.
For information on registered UK businesses, please refer to the
Companies House<https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/companies-house>
pages on GOV.UK.
We hope you have found this information helpful.
