My summary of the events leading to the invocation of the Emergencies Act including my perspective which has never been publicly reported except through isolated tweets.
March 3rd, 2020
I properly served the Deputy AG of Canada with a Charter complaint, following the enforcement procedure of the Charter.
Section 24(1) of the Charter reads:
“Anyone whose rights or freedoms, as guaranteed by this Charter, have been infringed or denied may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to obtain such remedy as the court considers appropriate and just in the circumstances.”
Since Parliament offers the only method for the removal of a judge I wrote:
“The only Court of competent jurisdiction to judge the judges who judge the judges is Parliament. I have currently lost most of my legal rights except obviously my right to life but I am in fear of losing that. I am hereby applying to Parliament for the protection of my charter of rights. Obviously, urgency is of prime importance.”
The Attorney General’s office signed for the registered letter but has never responded. The refusal to respond to the call for accountability is clearly not in good faith.
March 11 2020
WHO declared COVID-19 viral disease a pandemic and governments around the World initiated border lockdowns and ordered citizens to isolate.

April 28, 2020

December 14, 2020
COVID-19 vaccination began in Canada.
January 6th 2021
I wrote to the RCMP National Division tasked with investigating corruption by Member’s of Parliament and informed them of the problem of the AG/MOJ refusing to respond to the enforcement procedure of the Charter to bring accountability for the Public on the conduct of lawyers and judges.
Meanwhile in the USA the President was inciting his followers to storm the Capitol Building alleging election interference in an attempt to claim power as a dictator. That his belief trumped all others.
Whilst watching video of the mob storming the Capitol Building in Washington I responded,
An Appeal to the United Nations due to the failure of the Judiciary to provide Access to Justice by providing a legal system where the rule of law protects the Citizens in a democracy from abuses of power by lawyers. Without the integrity of the rule of law there is no difference between a legal system and a protection racket like the Mafia.
United Nations Declaration of Human Rights
Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law.
The RCMP tried to deflect by claiming they dont have authority to investigate Judges by attempt to ignore the fact that I was reporting a failure of the Minister of Justice to comply with his duty to protect the Public and ensure that the administration of Justice is in compliance with the Law. To be Servants of the People, not Rule by Lawyers.
I reported to the RCMP a crime committed by a Parliamentary Committee
The RCMP and I communicated a couple more times and finally on January 12th
I attempted to communicate in a respectful manner which was challenging given that the RCMP was refusing to investigate corruption and obstruction of justice by the highest law officer of the Crown and worse, to destroy evidence. Given that I am the evidence as well and my recent experiences with the RCMP where in the previous couple of months I had been placed in handcuffs in the back of a police cruiser for at least 30 minutes. RCMP when asked for reasons for detention responded “making false statements” but Public Prosecutor dropped the charges on the day of hearing according to the postmark on the envelope but backdated the letter 2 weeks. The irony of the situation was not lost on me.
There was no further response and I haven’t been contacted since for more information. The RCMP do not want to know about corruption in the legal system.
I did however take the opportunity this time to report the situation to the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP but they called the issue “vexatious” and declined to investigate but told me I could write to Police Commissioner Brenda Lucki…
I had already reported the AG/MOJ David Lametti to the Parliamentary Ethics Commissioner and after attempting to claim that they could not investigate the Minister of Justice but failed to justify their position through their governing Statute so they accepted the complaint.
The AG/MOJ stock answer to any emails that they did respond to was “we do not provide legal advice to the Public”.
I wrote to the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the PMO acknowledged receipt and forwarded to the Minister of Justice, who on Feb 11th 2021 finally responded, but made false and misleading statements regarding his duties. My response on February 14th 2021 with corrections received no further response.
March 28, 2021 Letter to PMO.
“I provided this information on my Charter of Rights to the AG office over 6 months ago, they should have prepared a defense to my position at this time or failing that to concede. This should be communicated to me. I should not be having to go to such extraordinary lengths in order to protect my rights.
What legal rights do I have if you are telling me that to assert my legal rights I need to go to a court which claims it can ignore everything and anything I can provide including the transcript of trial. And has already done exactly that when I presented the transcript of trial to establish a fraud on the court and it was defeated by the judge calling up the plaintiff to have her refute the transcript with her recollection of events 6 months previously. Cant beat that. And that behavior is supported by the Judicial Council!
Then I’m told that my only recourse is to go back to the CJC. Then I’m told by the CJC that my complaints were an abuse of process. So I went to the judge and made an abuse of process application and he ignored it. I presented a Charter of Rights application and delivered it as specified for service upon the Crown. The Attorney General ignored it. Then when the PM`s office requests a response, after refusing to respond to my emails for weeks, tells me that they do not give legal advice to the public. I write to the PM and tell him that I have already served the AG with my Charter of Rights application and it is not their advice I am seeking. I am seeking that they enforce the Charter of Rights as his office mandates that he do.
Their choice is to defend the court`s position that judges should have the right to reject their own transcript of trial without alleging fraud or that Canadian`s are to be provided with “fundamental justice” and “fair and impartial” hearings. I cannot see how they can defend that position given that No Canadian is going to accept that judges should have the right to reject their own transcript of trial. The other option is to embrace the situation as a soul searching continuation of mankind`s search for balancing justice and to strive for perfection. What other choice is there. Isnt this obstruction of justice?”
April 30, 2021
My perspective was mixed between respect for effective defenses against Covid-19 and attempting to generate publicity for the public to know that the Judiciary were claiming absolute power and the Executive were complicit. My message wasn’t relevant to Canadians. The Public were of course, concerned about things that affected them directly which was the loss of their jobs and businesses, mobility, and growing authoritarian messages from the Government.
May 2, 2021
But there was a growing message that was common to all Canadians. The administration was loving playing with their undemocratic increases in authority. Some Canadians deferred easily to authority and some questioned the exercise of that power, which of course, is part of living in a democracy.
“Rights can be limited by law so long as those limits can be shown to be reasonable in a free and democratic society.”
Section 1 of the Charter

September 8th, 2021
September 20, 2021
Trudeau is re-elected with essentially the same minority government that they had from the 2019 Election. The Liberals set a record for the lowest vote share of a party that would go on to form government, winning 32.6 per cent of the popular vote, losing the popular vote to the Conservatives as they did in 2019. Despite the pandemic Democracy still functioned with equivalent participation levels to previous elections and included voting in person.
Instead of changing to the more democratic “proportional” voting system which was the PM’s election mandate from Canadians we continue to use the “first-past-the-post” voting system.
October 21, 2021
Some members of the RCMP write a letter of protest regarding Executive orders requiring them to enforce mandates which they believed were contrary to the Charter of Rights.

October 26, 2021
I wrote to the Governor General on the day she swears in the new Ministers of Government about my concerns that the AG/MOJ and the administration of Government is not in accordance with the law. The Liberal Party held a minority government in the House of Commons, Governor General Mary Simon had some power to enforce the Constitution dealing with a minority government where she is NOT obliged to accept the legal advice of the MOJ. I never received a reply.

This is a very very important issue that requires resolution in accordance to the law. Part of this matter is before the courts at this time and causing a general collapse of law and order. Leadership at the highest level is required at this time. I hope that the Prime Minister has disclosed these events to her Majesty the Queen in his recent visit. If he has not I would expect that it would be relevant for your office to inform the Queen of these events and ensure that your office is in agreement with her office in accordance with the law. To complete the communication it would be important that I am informed of the communications.”
No reply ever received.
