Anything is possible with a monster like this in the Canadian Military? Chapter 1 [Disturbing details chronicle Col. Russell Williams double life] Lets set this book up with a few choice examples of the Canadian Military. One about a monster, Col. Russell Williams, and the other a hero, Warrant Officer Matt Stopford! The first guy, Col. Russell Williams [the monster], the Canadian Military appeared to protect his reputation as long as they could? The second guy [the hero], Warrant Officer Matt Stopford, the Canadian Military arses definitely screwed him over as long as they could! Lets look at the first guy, Col. Russell Williams [the monster], citing ver batim news articles and postings about this guy to give the reader a taste of what this book will be talking about? Disturbing details chronicle colonel's double life CTV.ca News Staff Date: Mon. Oct. 18 2010 9:58 PM ET Warning: This story contains details that may be disturbing to some readers. A court heard chilling details Monday of Col. Russell Williams's double life, including the thousands of graphic photos he took of himself wearing stolen women's underwear, and the sexual assault of a young mother as her baby slept nearby. The proceedings began Monday morning in a Belleville, Ont., courtroom where Williams, former commander of CFB Trenton, pleaded guilty to two murders, two sexual assaults and 82 break-ins in Eastern Ontario. The 47-year-old admitted to murdering Jessica Lloyd, whose body was found in February in a field near her Tweed home, and Cpl. Marie-France Comeau, who served as a flight attendant on military flights that Williams piloted. Comeau was found dead in her home last November. In the final charge to be addressed in court before the session ended for the day, the Crown described details of the sexual assault of a young mother, whose identity is protected by a publication ban.

The victim woke up in her bed to Williams holding her head down before being tied up and blindfolded and photographed in various states of undress. The attack lasted for about two hours. The court heard the victim told police that Williams treated her more nicely after she told him he didn't seem like the type of person to commit such acts. The victim also told police Williams seemed like a dad.' Before Williams left, he told the young woman to count to 300 before untying herself. She stopped at 70 and Williams told her to keep going. When she reached 200 she realized he was gone and called police. For hours on Monday, prosecutors described to a shocked courtroom how Williams took thousands of graphic photographs of himself wearing women's and girls' underwear during dozens of thefts. The list of charges was so long that it took nearly 40 minutes to read through in court. The crimes began in the fall of 2007 and ended at the start of this year. After Williams entered his guilty pleas, a Crown prosecutor read aloud an agreed statement of facts, which provided details on how the disgraced colonel selected his victims. The prosecutor said Williams would stake out the homes of young, attractive women, before breaking in and stealing their lingerie and other items. Generally the women he targeted were between their late teens and early 30s, though in a few cases Williams broke into homes where pre-teen girls lived. He broke into the bedrooms of at least 12 girls under the age of 18. After breaking into a home, Williams would hunt for lingerie in bedrooms. Then he would model the underwear he intended to take and would masturbate. He always took a photograph of the room where he found the underwear and generally a photo of himself wearing it, prosecutors said. The prosecution also said Williams took thousands of these photos, including a shot of himself wearing underwear that belonged to twin 11-year-old girls. The court was shown numerous examples of these photos, some of which showed Williams masturbating for the camera.

Williams would then take the underwear home, adding to a growing collection of stolen clothing. Prosecutors say he kept a time and date stamp on all of the photos, which he stored on hard drives that he kept hidden in his basement ceiling. At his home, Williams eventually burned some of the stolen items once he had collected too many to hold onto. During the morning court session, Williams, wearing a dark suit, kept his head down as the photos of himself were shown in court. In the afternoon, Williams looked up from time to time and stared at the graphic images. Williams was a well-respected soldier and family man leading a double life until his arrest on Feb. 7. Three days before, Williams had driven through a police checkpoint, set up to compare car tires to tread marks found outside of Lloyd's house after she was murdered. The tires on Williams' SUV matched those tread marks. Victims terrorized During one break-in, Williams took items from three female members, between the ages of 12 and 21, of an Ottawa family. One daughter reported finding a photo album left open to a page in which she had filed an old photo ID. Another daughter found personal pictures laid out on her bedroom floor, while another found a Word document on her computer with the word merci.' At another break-in, a 15-year-old girl was too scared to sleep in her own bedroom after dozens of items were taken. At yet another, Williams stole dozens of items from a young woman and left her a lurid letter. In July 2009, Williams' behaviour escalated, court heard. In one instance, he watched from the backyard as a woman undressed and got into the shower. Williams then undressed, entered the home, stole a pair of panties and left. The court also heard that Williams saved screen shots of Ottawa police news releases about a string of break-ins and thefts. In addition to the statement of facts, the court will hear victim impact statements over the next few days.

Lloyd's brother Andy said outside court he and his family look forward to giving their statements to "let (Williams) and the courts know, and the parole board in 25 years, how this has affected us." Lloyd told reporters he was appalled at the photographic evidence presented by prosecutors. "Everybody's probably going to think the same thing I thought," Lloyd said. "I thought it was disgusting. Some of the pictures I thought were terrible." The courtroom was packed with family members of victims, journalists and curious members of the public, many of whom struggled to contain their emotions. Some had to leave the courtroom as the more graphic photographs were displayed. Greg Bowerman, a civilian cook at CFB Trenton, said the case "defaces the Canadian government (and) our people. "Somebody that high-ranking doing something like this, it's a sad day for Canada," Bowerman said. Williams will be sentenced later this week. He faces an automatic sentence of life in prison for the murders he committed. His shocking crimes have drawn the attention of media across Canada and even the U.S. On Monday, reporters from CBS News and the New York Times attended the hearing for the disgraced colonel. Williams is also facing a $2.45-million civil lawsuit from one of the women he is accused of attacking. That case is separate from the criminal charges he pleaded guilty to on Monday. Gen. Walt Natynczyk, Chief of the Defence Staff, issued a statement on Monday afternoon in reaction to Williams' guilty plea.1 "The tragic events surrounding Colonel Russell Williams stunned all Canadians and none more so than the members of the Canadian Forces. Today's guilty plea is the first step in a healing process that will no doubt take many years," said Natynczyk. "Upon formal conviction we will be in a position to officially begin the administrative process that will lead to Colonel Williams' release from the Canadian Forces. This will be completed as quickly as possible."

Chapter 2 [Had enough of this disgusting bastard Col. Russell Williams yet?] The author apologizes for more about this bastard Col. Russell Williams, but its important to lay the framework for the remainder of this book. Col. Russell Williams [the monster], the Canadian Military appeared to protect his reputation as long as they could? The second guy [the hero], Warrant Officer Matt Stopford, the Canadian Military arses screwed him over as long as they could! Lets again look at the first guy, Col. Russell Williams [the monster], citing this next story ver batim again so that the reader is fully aware of this bastard and his criminal - perverted action! Col. Williams assaulted victim after she had seizures CTV.ca News Staff Date: Tue. Oct. 19 2010 8:13 PM ET Warning: This story contains details that may be disturbing to some readers Disgraced Col. Russell Williams repeatedly sexually assaulted Jessica Lloyd despite the fact she had seizures and begged to be taken to hospital, a Belleville, Ont. court heard Tuesday. Lloyd's family members sobbed as Crown prosecutors detailed the last hours of Lloyd's life during the second day of Williams's sentencing hearing for a series of sexually motivated crimes. On Monday, Williams pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree murder, two sexual assaults and 82 fetish break-ins in Eastern Ontario. Before court recessed for the day, Williams was formally convicted of all charges against him after prosecutors spent two days detailing graphic evidence of his crimes. Earlier Tuesday afternoon, court heard how the former commander of CFB Trenton told police he first noticed Lloyd when he spied her working out on her treadmill in the basement of her house. He then staked out her home, came back to watch her from the back yard before breaking in and approaching her in her sleep. Williams tied her up, taped her mouth and repeatedly sexually assaulted her before taking Lloyd to his home in Tweed, where he had her shower, let her sleep and then again sexually assaulted her. 11

When Lloyd began having seizures, she begged Williams to take her to the hospital. Williams did not, and continued to assault her. He videotaped the entire ordeal. "If I die, will you make sure to let my mom know that I love her," Crown prosecutors said Lloyd asked Williams. Williams fed Lloyd some fruit before he hit her over the head with a flashlight and strangled her with a rope. That was Jan. 29. Williams left Lloyd's body at his home as he returned to work at CFB Trenton. He stayed overnight at the base before flying soldiers to California. He returned days later to dump her body in a nearby field. For the past two days, Crown prosecutors have outlined how Williams went from stealing underwear from women's bedrooms to murdering two women from Eastern Ontario and sexually assaulting two other victims in the same region. Earlier Tuesday, court heard how Williams suffocated flight attendant Cpl. Marie-France Comeau in her own home. Crown prosecutors detailed evidence that showed Williams used his authority to learn where she lived and when she worked. Crown prosecutors told the court that Williams first noticed Comeau when she was working on a military flight. The two had a conversation and Comeau mentioned that she lived alone. Upon learning that information, Williams broke into her home twice last November. The second time, he killed Comeau, a 38-year-old career soldier. The 47-year-old Williams, wearing a black suit and light-coloured striped shirt, sat quietly as his many crimes were described to the court on Tuesday. Crown prosecutors explained how Williams first broke into the house where Comeau lived by herself last November, stealing some of her undergarments and taking photos of her ID and home. A week after his initial break-in, Williams returned to her home and broke in again. Hiding in Comeau's basement, Williams intended to wait until she fell asleep to go to her bedroom.

12

But she ended up making a trip to her basement to look for her cat, which was staring at Williams. Comeau called Wililams a "bastard" and screamed. Williams hit her on the head with a flashlight, which caused her head to bleed profusely. He tied her up. He then went outside to cover his tracks. At the front door of Comeau's home, Williams jammed a key in the lock. He broke the key off to prevent anyone from coming through. Inside the house, Williams carried Comeau to her bedroom. He repeatedly sexually assaulted her in the hours before her death. He took photos and videos of his assaults on Comeau, none of which were shown in court. The Crown said Comeau made repeated pleas for her life, asking Williams to "have a heart pleaseI've been really goodI want to live." Williams eventually suffocated her by placing duct tape over her nose and mouth. Williams then took extensive measures to clean up the scene of the murder, including washing Comeau's bedsheets in bleach. He fled Comeau's home and drove directly to Ottawa for a meeting about the acquisition of a C-17 military transport plane. Williams later wrote a letter of condolence to Comeau's father in which he praised Comeau as a "professional, caring and compassionate woman who earned the respect of all with whom she came into contact." Williams urged the elder Comeau to "please let me know whether there is anything I can do to help you during this very difficult time." Pattern of escalating behaviour Earlier Tuesday, the court also heard a description of a prior incident in which Williams sexually assaulted a woman who fell asleep watching TV in September 2009. The woman woke up when someone hit her on the head with a flashlight, in an attempt to knock her out. It was Williams, who told her she was being robbed. 13

He tied up the woman and blindfolded her. Then he cut off her top and bra and began taking photos of her. He indicated that she would not be harmed if she let him take pictures. He also forced her into various poses. Prior to the start of Tuesday's hearing, Crown prosecutor Lee Burgess said the case was "the most awful" he had dealt with in his 20-year career. Michael Edelson, the lawyer representing Williams, said the day's proceedings were going to be "another extremely difficult day." Williams pleads guilty On Monday, Williams pleaded guilty to murdering two Eastern Ontario women and to sexually assaulting two other women from the same region. Williams also admitted to committing dozens of break-and-enters over the past three years, in which he stole hundreds of undergarments from women who lived in the houses he burglarized. It was revealed that when Williams broke into houses, he took pictures of himself modeling the underwear he found and often masturbated while doing so. The women he targeted were generally between their late teens and early 30s, though in at least 12 cases, he stole underwear from the bedrooms of underage women. Williams stored the stolen underwear at his home and kept detailed records about his thefts on computer hard drives that he hid in his basement ceiling. Crown prosecutors say he took thousands of photos of the undergarments and other items he stole from women in Eastern Ontario. Williams became known to police on Feb. 4, when they set up a roadblock on Highway 37 between Belleville and Trenton to check SUVs for tires that matched treads found outside Lloyd's home. When police discovered Williams's tires matched the tread, they began to follow him and arrested him three days later. Williams confessed to his crimes and led police to both Lloyd's body and computer files and military duffel bags filled with evidence that he stored in the garage of his Ottawa home.

14

The proceedings will resume Wednesday morning with Williams's confession video and Crown statements. Court will then hear victim impact statements from victims' family members.

Anything is possible when they did this to this hero? Chapter 3 [Lets now look at the hero, Warrant Officer Matt Stopford!] Lets now look at the hero, Warrant Officer Matt Stopford, and how the Canadian Military arses screwed him over as long as they could! Citing ver batim news articles and postings about this hero will give the reader a taste of what this poor soldier had to put up with! Military Tells Soldier His Own Troops May Have Plotted To Kill Him By Peter Worthington Toronto Sun 8-12-99 Ex-warrant officer Matt Stopford has suffered since his duties in Croatia, including the loss of vision in his right eye. - Norm Betts, SUN The Canadian military thinks a soldier debilitated by mysterious ailments was not a victim of possible PCBcontaminated sandbags while peacekeeping in Croatia, but was being poisoned by his own men. In an extraordinary letter dated Aug.4 and hand-delivered to retired Warrant Officer Matt Stopford, Brig.-Gen. Patricia Samson, the Provost Marshal of the Armed Forces, writes: "Information has recently come to light that indicates you may have been the victim of systematic ingestion of naphtha gas during your tour to Croatia in 1993." Samson, the military's top cop, goes on to say it is "alleged," and that the allegations "have some credence," that "minute amounts ... of naphtha gas were covertly put into your coffee on a regular basis by other servicemen over an extended period of time ... the majority of your time in theatre." She urges: "I implore you not to make this information public at this time," because a "criminal investigation" is being "vigorously" pursued. Stopford, living alone in Peterborough, says the letter, delivered by Capt. Vince Mancini, Operations Officer of the National Investigation Service (CFNIS), told him it was considered too sensitive for the mail or phone and that as well as naphtha gas in his coffee, battery acid was probably put in his food. Stopford says: "He seemed surprised at the contents of the letter, and when I said I didn't believe it, he said: 'I thought you'd say that.'"

16

Mancini then asked what Stopford knew of the memorandum removed from soldiers files to the effect that they had possibly been exposed to bauxite-filled sandbags contaminated by PCBs. Stopford, once a super-fit soldier with no history of malingering or medical problems, is a physical wreck following duty in Croatia. His stomach is a mess, he bleeds from the rectum, his bones and joints constantly ache, he's gone blind in his right eye, and has difficulty breathing. Some days are worse than others, but all are bad. This, in a soldier who played on the army's national soccer team and who recalls, "I could run 20Ks without breathing hard." One veteran of Croatia, who asked not to be identified because he fears military retaliation, said: "It's inconceivable that his troops would try to harm Stopford -- he was well-respected by subordinates, by his peers and by his superiors. An excellent soldier, and a fine man." Retired Col. Michel Drapeau, former director-general of DND's Executive Secretariat, says in 34 years in the military he's never seen anything like this. "It's incredible, the letter maligns Stopford as a leader and soldier by suggesting his men tried to 'frag' (kill) him," he says. "The letter is also an indictment against the soldiers of his platoon. It is simply astonishing that the Provost Marshal would make such allegations in a letter while a criminal investigation is under way in what's a case of attempted murder." In her letter, Samson urges Stopford to tell his doctor about possibly being poisoned, while "imploring" him not to go public. I've thought about the letter, which really upsets me," says Stopford. "It is so totally ludicrous that I decided to go public. I've spoken to other guys in my platoon -- a lot of them are sick since Croatia -- and they say they haven't been contacted by the NIS investigators." One would think they'd have been contacted before telling Stopford his men had tried to poison him. "In Croatia, Stopford's leadership was saving lives, not risking them," one soldier said, unwilling to be identified. (As an aside, I've never known the Canadian military so fearful of reprisals from above if they speak up -- in itself revealing.) "I know my men, the guys I served with, and if anyone was out to get me, I'd have known it," says Stopford. "Besides, how could you drink coffee with gasoline in it

17

and not know? Gasoline floats on water. As for battery acid in my food -- it makes no sense." Scott Taylor, publisher of the military magazine Esprit de Corps and co-author of the book Tested Mettle, which first exposed the possibility of Stopford and other soldiers being exposed to PCB-contaminated soil and bauxite in sandbags in Croatia, says he was told yesterday that "the whole 13th floor of DND (the executive floor) was in a flap over this letter whose contents they weren't talking about." Stopford commanded a platoon of the Princess Pats in Croatia involved with filling sandbags with possibly PCB-contaminated bauxite. A memo put in every soldier's file by medical officer (Navy) Lieut. Eric Smith to this effect was mysteriously removed from files. Someone shoved a copy of the memo under my door when I was a platoon commander in Calgary," says Stopford. "I checked with my platoon and they'd all signed the memo, which had disappeared from their files. So I made photocopies and gave them to the soldiers, and told them to hold on to them and not put them in their files." Stopford was commended for his leadership in Croatia -- one of the cool heroes of fighting in the Medak pocket against invading Croatian military. Ironically, he saved lives rather than put troops at greater risk. He feels he can no longer trust the army. "I'm fighting Veterans Affairs for a disability pension, and I don't trust army doctors who just gave me medications and said my sickness was all in my head. My civilian doctor took me off medication, and I'm now seeing specialists -- a toxicologist, neurologist, psychologist, rheumatologist, stomach doctor and the like." As for his own troops trying to poison him, he thinks the army is trying to absolve itself from responsibility for Croatia. "I think they were hoping I'd snap -- lose it and go off the deep end. Otherwise why would they tell me before they had fully investigated the case?" Commented one officer: "They're saying, in effect, that Matt was such a son of a bitch his men wanted to kill him." Stopford lives on only his army pension, yet has the same spirit of independence and personal pride he had as a soldier: "To say I'm disappointed in the army puts it mildly. Instead of sending a doctor or someone to help, they send a cop who says my own people were trying to kill me. That's hard to swallow." Stopford is expected to hold a press conference in Ottawa today concerning the Provost Marshal's extraordinary letter.

Chapter 4 [Lets now look at the hero, Warrant Officer Matt Stopford!] Lets have another look at Warrant Officer Matt Stopfords ordeal, and how the Canadian Military arses screwed him over as long as they could! Citing ver batim news articles and postings about this hero will give the reader a taste of what this poor soldier had to put up with! Military Hero Left Out In The Cold ...Again by Dartman 12/ 05/ 02 12:58 pm Toronto Sun Dec.5/02 Ex-Soldier Kept From Ceremonies By Peter Worthington Where was ex-Warrant Officer Matt Stopford? Last weekend some 350 soldiers and ex-soldiers who had served with the 2nd Battalion Princess Patricias in Croatia, attended ceremonies in Winnipeg where Governor General Adrienne Clarkson presented the unit with the new Commanderin-Chief Unit Commendation. The award goes to a unit or sub-unit that has "performed an extraordinary deed or activity of a rare high standard in extremely hazardous circumstances." The Pats got it for their firefight with Croats in 1993 in the Medak Pocket, when Croat forces were killing Serb civilians in the Krajina, and the Pats were trying to stop them. The Canadians estimate they inflicted 100 casualties, including 33 dead, while enduring just four wounded and no one killed. It was an unpublicized, largely unknown battle of the peacekeeping phase of the Balkans. The award comprises of an illuminated scroll for the battalion and a small gold bar bearing the Vice-Regal lion and tiny red maple leafs that every soldier in 2 Battalion will wear. The pin is a Canadian version of the U.S. Presidential Unit Citation -- a blue bar in a gold frame worn on the right chest (2 PPCLI earned this in the Korean War). When I asked, no one at DND was sure where the GG's lion pin would be worn. But every soldier in the unit can wear it, but only those who came under fire in the Medak pocket can wear it after they leave 2nd Battalion. There was one notable absence at the ceremonies in Winnipeg -- a man who played a key role in the fighting, who led with courage and resourcefulness, but is now a pariah to DND -- former Warrant Officer Matt Stopford.

20

He never has fully recovered from mysterious illnesses contracted in Croatia. Stopford blames toxic soil, but DND says no, even though other soldiers are afflicted. Stopford got no invitation to the ceremonies and hasn't been told he is entitled to the pin. He's blind in one eye, his body wracked with internal ailments. Nearly seven years after leaving Croatia, he was told his own men were trying to poison him -- for being too gung-ho!1 Until the media got wind of his case (mainly The Sun) Stopford was getting only 10% disability pension, which was then upped to 100%. He now is suing DND for not being told that some troops under his command sought to poison his coffee with naphtha gas, battery acid and shoe blackener. DND's bid to have his suit dismissed failed and a trial awaits -- which shouldn't have prevented him being invited to join comrades in getting the award. Scott Taylor's best-selling book Tested Mettle tells of Stopford's leadership in the Medak Pocket, when he was ordered not to interfere and prevent Croatian soldiers raping Serbian women. Ironically, soldiers who sought to incapacitate him with poisoned coffee presumably were honoured at the Winnipeg ceremonies. Although not identified, the alleged perpetrators of what is one of the army's most heinous offence -- fragging a superior -- will wear the GG's award for "extraordinary performance" and "rare, high standard of behaviour." Stopford is disappointed, but reluctant to say anything that might detract from others.2 "This is another slap in the face for Matt," said his brother Andy, from Ripley, Ont. "I can't believe the government treats him like he doesn't exist." For what it's worth, I agree. The moral is don't make waves, don't sue DND. Still, it's shabby to make an unperson of a soldier whose leadership saved lives and earned him recognition by his country and a promotion in the field. Footnotes 1 2. This hero may be reluctant to say, but the author isnt what Canadian Military scum to treat Warrant Officer Matt Stopford this shabbily!

This was a motion to strike the statement of claim for failure to disclose a reasonable cause of action. The plaintiff served in a peacekeeping mission in Croatia in 1993. In the course of his duties he handled human and animal remains as well as bauxite, a hazardous substance. Neither protective clothing, masks or gloves nor clean water for washing were provided to perform these duties. The plaintiff was not tested for exposure to potentially hazardous materials. When he returned to Canada, he began to experience physical ailments which resulted in his release from the Armed Forces on June 26, 1998 as medically unfit. Initially the plaintiff received a 25% pension, which was increased to 100% only after numerous appeals. In 1999, the plaintiff was informed by the defendant that there were allegations that members of his own troop had poisoned him while he was serving in Croatia. No medical or emotional support was provided by the defendant at that time. The statement of claim alleges both negligence and breach of fiduciary duty. The Crown sought to strike the entire statement of claim on the ground that the plaintiff was in receipt of a pension for his injuries and was thus barred by statute from requesting additional compensation from the courts. Pension Act, section 111 prohibits any action against the Queen in respect of any injury where a pension is or may be awarded in respect of the disability, and Crown Liability and Proceedings Act, section 9 prohibits any proceedings against the Crown or a servant of the Crown in respect of a claim if a pension or compensation has been paid or is payable. The issue was whether it was plain and obvious that the claim could not succeed. Held, the motion should be dismissed, except with respect to the allegation of "wrongful" termination. This Court recently held, in Duplessis v. Canada, that the question whether the Crown had breached its fiduciary duty by failing to provide adequate support and 24

counselling to a soldier upon his return from military service in Croatia was a serious question to be determined on the merits. The law of fiduciary duty is not settled and the categories giving rise to a new fiduciary duty remain open. Based on the undetermined scope of fiduciary duties, it was not plain and obvious that the plaintiff's claim in this regard should fail. The question remained as to whether the plaintiff's claims fell within the scope of Pension Act, section 111 and Crown Liability and Proceedings Act, section 9. The plaintiff argued that his claim arose from damages suffered "post-deployment" due to the defendant's conduct, and was therefore not based on a disability "resulting from an injury or disease or an aggravation thereof". The plaintiff relied on Duplessis v. Canada. That case does not stand for the proposition that as long as a claim arises from damages suffered "post-deployment" it is not covered by the scope of the statutory bars. But it was not plain and obvious that the plaintiff had been awarded a pension in relation to the injuries claimed, i.e. the results of alleged intentional poisoning, the denial of adequate and timely assistance and treatment, the premature loss of employment, and the likely shortening of his life expectancy. It could not be concluded that such injuries were indistinguishable from the physical and mental disabilities suffered by the plaintiff in connection with his military service for which he was in receipt of a pension. It had yet to be established whether the poisoning was allowed to continue after the plaintiff's superiors knew of it, thus raising at the least, an evidentiary issue which will require discovery. More importantly, while the poisoning, apparently intentional, was perpetrated by his comrades-in-arms, it was not evident that this was the sort of injury, incidental to military life, which was compensable by a pension. The plaintiff also claimed losses in relation to having to conduct numerous pension appeals before receiving his full pension. Such losses may not fall within the scope of Pension Act, section 111 or Crown Liability and Proceedings Act, section 9 or may not have been compensated under the plaintiff's pension. Nor was it plain and obvious that the plaintiff was barred from bringing a claim based on the defendant's alleged failure to inform him that he had been deliberately poisoned while serving in Croatia. Ostensibly, this was a claim of negligent conduct that aggravated a disability within section 111 of the Pension Act. But the plaintiff based his claim both on the defendant's failure to inform him, before and after his discharge, and on the uncaring and impersonal manner in which he was eventually informed, which occurred after his discharge. Whether the relevant statutory bars cover alleged torts or breaches of fiduciary duties after discharge from military service raised a serious question of law for determination on its merits. The term "wrongfully" should be struck from the claim where it is used in conjunction with loss of employment. Such an allegation is untenable in the context of the Armed Forces.

MOTION to strike statement of claim alleging negligence and breach of fiduciary duty on the ground that it disclosed no reasonable cause of action because the plaintiff was in receipt of a pension for injuries sustained when an Armed Forces member and was thus barred by statute from seeking additional compensation in the courts. Motion dismissed, except that the term "wrongful" was ordered struck where used in conjunction with loss of employment. The following are the reasons for order rendered in English by [1] Aronovitch P.: Matthew Stopford claims damages in the amount of 7.5 million, including punitive and exemplary damages, against the defendant, arising from injuries he suffered both before and after performing his duties as a warrant officer in the Balkans in 1993. [2] The Crown seeks to strike the entire statement of claim on the ground that the plaintiff is in receipt of a pension for his injuries and is thus barred by statute from requesting additional compensation from the courts. FACTS [3] It should be borne in mind that for the purposes of a motion to strike a claim, or any part thereof, the facts alleged in the plaintiff's statement of claim must be presumed to be true. The following are the salient facts asserted by the plaintiff. [4] The plaintiff was a member of the Canadian Armed Forces from 1980 until his release on July 26, 1998. He had attained the rank of warrant officer and participated in three tours of duty in Cyprus and in UN peacekeeping duties in the Special Duty Area of Yugoslavia, Slovenia and Croatia from March until October, 1993. The plaintiff was in good physical, mental and emotional health prior to his service in Croatia. [5] In March 1993, the plaintiff was sent to Croatia under a UN mandated operation to serve in an area called "South Sector" which has been described by the defendant as having "a pace and intensity of operations unknown to Canadian soldiers since the Korean War". Peacekeepers in the sector were subjected to constant combat conditions and crossfire and witnessed terrible atrocities. [6] The plaintiff's duties included cleaning the area of organic waste, including human and animal remains, and constructing bunkers using mine pilings that were later found to contain a hazardous substance called bauxite. [7] No protective clothing, masks or gloves were provided by the military to perform these duties. No clean water was available for washing. The plaintiff was not tested for any exposure to potentially hazardous materials.

26

[8] In an October 2, 1993 performance review, the defendant determined that the plaintiff's performance in Croatia had been outstanding. On January 15, 1994, the plaintiff was awarded a medal for his contribution to the effort in Croatia. [9] When the plaintiff returned to Canada in October of 1993, he was given no medical or counselling assistance by the military. A report prepared by the defendant considered that the treatment available to those who had served in Croatia in 1993 to 1995 was "at best arbitrary", "inadequate" and "a disgrace". [10] During the period of 1993 to 1995, the plaintiff began to experience profuse sweating and joint aches. He sought medical help from the defendant through his superior officers and Armed Forces medical personnel. He was told to drink less coffee. [11] The plaintiff then developed redness in his eyes and brought this to the defendant's attention. He was told that it was just "red eye" or an allergy. By January of 1996, the plaintiff was going blind in one eye and was incapacitated due to joint pain. On June 26, 1998, the defendant determined that he was medically unfit and he was released from service. [12] In 1996, the plaintiff applied to the Department of Veterans' Affairs for a disability pension. He initially received a 25% pension, which was increased to 100% on March 14, 2000, after numerous appeals by the plaintiff. [13] The story does not end there. On August 7, 1999, the plaintiff was informed by the defendant that there were allegations that members of his own troops had poisoned him while he was serving in Croatia. No medical or emotional support was provided by the defendant to the plaintiff at that time. [14] Following its investigations into the allegations, the Military Police Complaints Commission (MPCC) reported that poisoning had taken place and that the medical and tactical chain of command was aware at the time of the poisoning allegations, and that the plaintiff was not informed. The defendant stated that "Visine, coolant and naphtha were placed in Stopford's coffee". [15] The plaintiff now suffers from a number of health problems, including posttraumatic stress and depression, partial blindness and significant intestinal problems. At age 38, he has been informed that his life expectancy may be less than 10 years. He is unable to enjoy the quality of life he was accustomed to prior to his illness. He has incurred significant financial burdens resulting from his lengthy pension appeals. His promising military career has ended prematurely. [16] The plaintiff brought a claim against the defendant on January 26, 2001, for damages resulting from the defendant's: (a) breach of fiduciary duty; 27

(b) breach of statutory duty; (c) negligence for failing to properly perform all statutory obligations; (d) negligence for failing to perform duties competently; [17] In the statement of claim, the plaintiff alleges negligence and breach of fiduciary duty as follows: 42. The defendant owes the highest level of fiduciary duty to the plaintiff. It could, and did require that the plaintiff put himself in harm's way in serving his country. The defendant is required to take care of the plaintiff if he is injured as a result of that decision. Here, the defendant has signally failed in it's [sic] duty. 43. The defendant breached its fiduciary obligations to the plaintiff by: a) failing to inform the plaintiff until January 17, 2001 of the knowledge that he was poisoned in Croatia in 1993; b) the uncaring and impersonal manner by which the plaintiff was informed of his poisoning in Croatia; c) failing to provide timely and appropriate medical treatment for the plaintiff, despite his repeated requests for such assistance; d) failing to provide appropriate counselling and treatment for the trauma the plaintiff experienced in Croatia; e) deliberately destroying certain records placed on his medical file and then denying having done so; f) failing to assist the plaintiff in obtaining a disability pension; and g) failing to inform the Department of Veteran's Affairs that the plaintiff had been poisoned in 1993. 44. By reason of the defendant's and her employees, agents' and servants' negligence, breach of statutory duties and obligations and breach of fiduciary obligations owed to the plaintiff, the plaintiff suffered injury as a result of poisoning, did not receive adequate medical assistance, and wrongfully lost his status of employment within the Canadian Armed Forces. He has suffered and continues to suffer losses and damages as a consequence thereof, full particulars of which are as yet unascertained.

28

45. Due to the intentional, wrongful and high-handed conduct of the defendant, the plaintiff is entitled to receive punitive, aggravated and exemplary damages. Motion to Strike Pursuant to Rule 221 [18] The defendant relies on paragraph 221(1)(a) of the Federal Court Rules, 1998 [SOR/98-106], which provides that all or part of a statement of claim may be struck for lack of a cause of action. [19] The applicable test and principles for striking a pleading pursuant to paragraph 221(1)(a), are well established and supported by ample jurisprudence. The threshold is set high. In order to prevail, the Crown must demonstrate that it is plain and obvious and beyond doubt that the claim sought to be struck cannot succeed. [20] In the context of a motion to strike, a statement of claim is to be read as whole, and generously construed, such that a mere "germ" or "scintilla" of a cause of action will suffice to maintain it. A party to an action is also not to be deprived of his or her right of action merely because the arguments made are novel or tenuous, all the more so in areas where the law is unsettled. Consequently this Court has rejected motions to strike where the issues in play have raised serious questions of law, or arguable questions of mixed fact and law which are best left for determination by the trial judge (see Hunt v. Carey Canada Inc., [1990] 2 S.C.R. 959; Perera v. Canada, [1997] F.C.J. No. 199 (T.D.) (QL); The Queen v. Operation Dismantle Inc., [1983] 1 F.C. 745 (C.A.); Vulcan Equipment Co. Ltd. v. The Coats Co., Inc., [1982] 2 F.C. 77 (C.A.); VISX Inc. v. Nidek Co. (1998), 82 C.P.R. (3d) 289 (F.C.A.)). [21] The defendant submits that the plaintiff's entire cause of action flows from injuries he suffered during his service in Croatia. Since he is in receipt of a full pension for these disabilities, he is barred from seeking further compensation from the courts. The plaintiff's statement of claim should therefore be struck as it discloses no cause of action. [22] The defendant cites section 111 of the Pension Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. P-6 and section 9 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. C-50 [as am. by S.C. 1990, c. 8, s. 21], which provide, respectively: 111. No action or other proceeding lies against Her Majesty or against any officer, servant or agent of Her Majesty in respect of any injury or disease or aggravation thereof resulting in disability or death in any case where a pension is or may be awarded under this Act or any other Act in respect of the disability or death. [23] The defendant explains that the purpose of these provisions is to prevent the Crown from paying twice for the same injury. The Crown's position is that the plaintiff's cause of action is captured by the words "in respect of an injury . . . where a pension is or may be awarded . . . in respect of the disability". 29

[24] The defendant also states that, to the extent that the plaintiff attempts to claim damages based on wrongful dismissal, the Crown is in no way contractually bound to members of the Armed Forces (see Gallant v. The Queen in right of Canada (1978), 91 D.L.R. (3d) 695 (F.C.T.D.), at pages 696-697; Sylvestre v. R., [1986] 3 F.C. 51 (C.A.), at page 53; Cottle v. Canada (Minister of National Defence) (1998), 148 F.T.R. 88 (F.C.T.D.), at paragraphs 51-52). Analysis [25] This Court has recently dealt with a motion to strike a statement of claim in which the plaintiff alleged, inter alia, that the Crown breached its fiduciary duty by failing to provide adequate support and counselling to the plaintiff upon his return from military service in Croatia (see Duplessis v. Canada (2000), 8 C.C.E.L. (3d) 75 (F.C.T.D.)). At paragraphs 30 and 31, the Court determined that: From the jurisprudence, it is evident that the categories giving rise to a fiduciary duty remain open. Terms such as "power" and "particularly vulnerable" have scope for interpretation and have not been judicially considered in respect of the relationship of the soldier to the Minister of National Defence. No jurisprudence was submitted wherein these terms have been considered in the context of military service or would preclude a determination that the relationship of soldier to the Crown may be a unique relationship in the manner of Guerin. The defendant may have a stronger argument in that regard, but it is not conclusive. Given the facts pleaded and continued prospects for the development of new fiduciary relationships, I cannot conclude that it is plain and obvious that Sergeant Duplessis' claim should fail. There is a serious question of law here that is more appropriately left for determination by the trial judge on the merits. [26] Notwithstanding the able arguments of Crown counsel, I do not agree that Duplessis was wrongly decided on this issue. While it is clear that the application of fiduciary duty has been generally restricted to private law, I am not satisfied that it has been categorically excluded from the public law context. I take the following words of Dickson J. (as he then was) in Guerin et al. v. The Queen et al., [1984] 2 S.C.R. 335, at pages 384-385 to be instructive. It is sometimes said that the nature of fiduciary relationships is both established and exhausted by the standard categories of agent, trustee, partner, director, and the like. I do not agree. It is the nature of the relationship, not the specific category of actor involved that gives rise to the fiduciary duty. The categories of fiduciary, like those of negligence, should not be considered closed. See, e.g. Laskin v. Bache & Co. Inc. (1971), 23 D.L.R. (3d) 385 (Ont. C.A.), at p. 392; Golden Mines Ltd. v. Revill (1974), 7. O.R. 216 (Ont. C.A.), at p. 224.

30

It should be noted that fiduciary duties generally arise only with regard to obligations originating in a private law context. Public law duties, the performance of which requires the exercise of discretion, do not typically give rise to a fiduciary relationship. As the "political trust" cases indicate, the Crown is not normally viewed as a fiduciary in the exercise of its legislative or administrative function. The mere fact, however, that it is the Crown which is obliged to act on the Indians' behalf does not of itself remove the Crown's obligation from the scope of the fiduciary principle. [Emphasis added.] [27] I appreciate that Dickson J. viewed the fiduciary duty in Guerin to be in the nature of a private law duty. However, I am more impressed by his concern to articulate a broad definition based on the nature of the relationship at issue, not the actors involved. That he viewed the concept of fiduciary duty as possibly extending beyond the private law sphere is revealed in his qualifiers "generally arise", "not normally" and "not typically". Moreover, I do not take his words to imply that the only exceptions to the private/public law restriction occur in the context of sui generis relationships or where the duty at issue "is in the nature of a private law duty". [28] Nor do I take this to be the implication of the Court of Appeal's decisions in Fairford First Nation v. Canada (Attorney General), [1999] 2 F.C. 48 (C.A.) or Chippewas of the Nawash First Nation v. Canada (Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs) (1999), 251 N.R. 220 (C.A.), cases referred to by the Crown at the hearing of this motion. [29] It is significant that in Callie v. Canada, [1991] 2 F.C. 379 (T.D.), at pages 393-394, Joyal J. determined that no fiduciary duty rests on the Crown in administering the Pension Act: Thus . . . a mere statutory direction to officers of the Crown to administer a fund or sum of money for the benefit of designated persons does not necessarily imply the existence of a fiduciary relationship between the two parties. In fact, I believe that this is the case with respect to the Crown's statutory duty to administer the plaintiff's pension for his benefit. While the Crown may have an administrative or governmental obligation to administer his pension funds accordingly, this obligation does not amount to a trust or fiduciary duty. [Emphasis added.] [30] I am not convinced, however, that this case, now 10 years old, has settled the matter. Indeed, very recently, in Authorson v. Canada (Attorney General) (2000), 53 O.R. (3d) 221 (Sup. Ct.), at paragraphs 23-26, Brockenshire J. of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice drew a broad interpretation of Guerin. This led him at paragraph 27, to expressly disagree with the result in Callie: Joyal J. in Callie v. Canada viewed the pensions and allowances as government funds, subject to government discretion. As I hope I have clearly indicated earlier, obviously when parliament would appropriate funds to the DVA to be used for 31

pensions and allowances, the actual allocation of those funds was left to the discretion of the department and more particularly to the tribunal. At that stage, it could be said the appropriation was subject to a "political trust". However, once the allocation was made and the pension or allowance granted, then each and every payment of that particular pension or allowance was the property of the veteran. The discretion to be exercised in the administration of those pensions and allowances for disabled veterans was no longer simply the discretion of the Crown but was a discretion to be used in accordance with equitable principles governing a fiduciary acting on behalf of the veteran and his or her dependents. (I was advised by counsel that Joyal J. may have been misinformed as to the premise on which the second part of his judgment, re a set-off, was based.) I am not bound by, and disagree with the findings and result in Callie v. Canada. [31] I am satisfied, therefore, that the law of fiduciary duty is not settled and the categories giving rise to a new duty fiduciary remain open (see also Lac Minerals Ltd. v. International Corona Resources Ltd., [1989] 2 S.C.R. 574, at page 645; Hodgkinson v. Simms, [1994] 3 S.C.R. 377, at paragraph 29). It should be remembered that the question at issue is whether the plaintiff's claim lacks a scintilla of a cause of action such as to justify denying him his day in court. Based on the undetermined scope of fiduciary duties, I conclude that it is not plain and obvious that Matthew Stopford's claim should fail. [32] This leaves the question of whether the plaintiff's claims fall within the scope of section 111 of the Pension Act and section 9 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act. Naturally enough, the plaintiff forwards a narrow interpretation of those provisions. The plaintiff's claim, it is argued, arises from damages suffered "postdeployment" by the defendant's conduct, and is not therefore based on a disability "resulting from an injury or disease or an aggravation thereof". This moves the claim outside the scope of the statutory bars. [33] The plaintiff relies heavily on this Court's determination in Duplessis. In Duplessis, at paragraphs 68-71, the Court was not convinced that the injuries forming the basis of Sergeant Duplessis' claim were indistinguishable from the aggravation of his post-traumatic stress syndrome, or that those injuries had already been compensated for under his pension: The plaintiff does not claim that he is disabled as a result of the defendant's conduct. The plaintiff's argument is that Sergeant Duplessis' true losses are greater than the compensation which he received by way of pension. He was humiliated, discriminated against, isolated, branded a trouble maker, provoked to breach the chain of command and improperly released. The breaches of the Crown in not providing the support necessary to Sergeant Duplessis, are stated to have consequences separate from his disorder namely, by his isolation or stigmatization, mental distress, humiliation and loss of dignity.

32

As a preliminary matter, the Crown does not maintain that Sergeant Duplessis has sustained a separate injury or set of injuries for which compensation is payable within the meaning of section 111 of the Pension Act, such as to preclude any further claim for damages. The Crown's position, as I understand it, are that the injuries, which are claimed to result from his mistreatment, are either related to or symptomatically indistinguishable from the aggravation of his syndrome. Although the nature of the plaintiff's injuries are similar in nature being psychological and affective, they are alleged to be distinct, unrelated to his disorder and resulting uniquely from the conduct of his superiors. Under the circumstances, it is inappropriate to evaluate the distinctiveness, if any, of the injuries which Sergeant Duplessis claims to have resulted from his treatment, in the context of this motion. As to the pension awards on which the defendant relies, these are neither complete nor conclusive in that regard. I therefore decline to merge Sergeant Duplessis' claims as merely an aggravation of his post-traumatic stress disorder. Absent clearer evidence that the pension entitlement was intended to cover and does cover the injuries which form the basis for this claim, and that these injuries are in fact related to or indistinguishable from the aggravation of his syndrome, I cannot find it plain and obvious that the plaintiff has already been awarded a pension in relation to the injuries claimed. This finding applies equally to section 9 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act on which the Crown relies to bar Sergeant Duplessis' claim in tort. [34] I do not agree with the plaintiff that Duplessis stands for the proposition that as long as a claim arises from damages suffered "post-deployment" it is not covered by the scope of the statutory bars. However, as was found in Duplessis, I do not find it plain and obvious that Matthew Stopford has been awarded a pension in relation to the injuries claimed in the within action. As with Duplessis, the present claim is for damages resulting from the conduct of the plaintiff's superiors. The injuries claimed are the results of alleged intentional poisoning, the denial of adequate and timely assistance and treatment, the premature loss of the plaintiff's status and employment in the services, culminating in the likely curtailment of his life expectancy. These injuries are claimed to be due to the intentional and negligent conduct of the defendant. I cannot conclude, in the context of this motion, that the injuries giving rise to this action are indistinguishable from the physical and mental disabilities suffered by the plaintiff in connection with his military service for which he is in receipt of a pension. [35] I am also not satisfied that such injuries may be compensated by pension. As an example, it is not clear that Mr. Stopford has been compensated, or may be compensated, by means of a disability pension, either for the poisoning that occurred or for the alleged failure of his superiors to inform him of the poisoning. Indeed, it has yet to be established whether the poisoning was allowed to continue after his superiors knew of it. At the least, this raises an evidentiary issue which will require discovery. More importantly, while the poisoning, apparently intentional, was 33

perpetrated by his comrades-in-arms, it is not evident that this is the sort of injury, incidental to military life, which is compensable by a pension. [36] The plaintiff's claim also includes allegations that the defendant failed to assist him in obtaining his pension, including a failure to inform the Department of Veterans' Affairs that the plaintiff had been poisoned in 1993. The plaintiff further alleges that the defendant deliberately destroyed records in his medical file. These claims logically relate to losses suffered by the plaintiff in relation to having to conduct numerous pension appeals before receiving his full pension. I am not convinced that such losses fall within the scope of section 111 of the Pension Act or section 9 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act, or that they have been compensated under the plaintiff's pension. [37] Nor do I find it plain and obvious that the plaintiff is barred from bringing a claim based on the defendant's alleged failure to inform him that he had been deliberately poisoned while serving in Croatia. Ostensibly, this is a claim of negligent conduct that aggravated a disability within the meaning of section 111 of the Pension Act. In my view, however, Matthew Stopford presents the novel claim for injuries suffered as a result of the defendant's conduct while he was no longer in military service. In Arsenault v. Canada (1995), 131 D.L.R. (4th) 105 (F.C.T.D.), at page 133, Wetston J. concurred with a finding of Dub J. in Berneche v. Canada, [1991] 3 F.C. 383 (C.A.), that "the Pension Act provid[es] a comprehensive scheme . . . for addressing valid claims for injuries sustained while in military service". Officer Stopford was discharged from the military on June 26, 1998. He was not informed by the defendant of the poisoning allegations until August 7, 1999. Mr. Stopford bases his claim both on the defendant's failure to inform him, before and after his discharge, and on the "uncaring and impersonal manner" in which he was eventually informed, which, again, occurred after his discharge. Whether the scope of the relevant statutory bars cover alleged torts or breaches of fiduciary duties committed by the defendant against a plaintiff after he or she has been discharged from military service raises a serious question of law that is proper for determination on its merits. [38] That said, I agree with the defendant that the term "wrongfully" should be struck with leave to amend from paragraph 44 of the claim, where it is used in conjunction with the loss of employment. While no damages are sought for wrongful dismissal, such an allegation is untenable in the context of the Armed Forces and will be struck out. Conclusion [39] In sum, except as noted, the Crown has failed to satisfy the Court, beyond doubt, of the failure of the plaintiff's claim. For the above reasons, the defendant's motion shall be granted in respect of the allegation of "wrongful" termination and otherwise denied. The costs of the motion shall be to the plaintiff in any event of the cause. 34

Chapter 6 [The RCMP lay no charges?] Not surprising to the author, the RCMP laid no charges against those that poisoned Warrant Officer Matt Stopford? Lets read ver batim about this conclusion by the RCMP: No charges laid in poisoning of officer CBC News Last Updated: Thursday, January 18, 2001 | 8:49 AM ET Soldiers who allegedly tried to poison their warrant officer while serving in Croatia eight years ago have nothing to fear from the law. A reporty by the Military Complaints Commission confirms charges can't be laid in the case. Retired warrant officer Matt Stopford is blind in one eye and suffers from a list of health problems. He says he was exposed to toxic soil in Croatia. But RCMP Insp. Russ Grabb, who led the police investigation into the case, says the source of Stopford's problems was something more mundane his coffee cup. Grabb told a news conference last May that at least six soldiers had put things such as naphtha gas, antifreeze, and shoe polish in Stopford's coffee. FROM MAY 30, 2000: Canadian soldiers tried to poison commander "This is a case we can prove beyond a reasonable doubt," Grabb said. "In fact, there is no doubt." The allegations are something Stopford himself won't believe. He says he would serve again with the same men. The RCMP say they had evidence soldiers were plotting similar attacks against other superior officers, Grabb said. And, most damning, some officers knew about the incidents.1 But by the time an investigation got under way, it was too late to lay military charges. The three-year statute of limitations was up.2 Despite the confidence Grabb has in his evidence, the case was deemed too weak for criminal court.

Chapter 7 [What the RCMP apparently cant fabricate, they apparently screw-up?] Just because the RCMP didnt lay any charges in Warrant Officer Matt Stopfords poisoning doesnt mean much to the author! Apparently, what the RCMP cant fabricate in their investigations, as exemplified by these incidents, they screw up as cited in the next few chapters? RCMP Staff Sgt. Ross Spenard thought he covered his tracks by shredding documents: Incredibly, in another high profile case, another senior RCMP officer lied again and again. The so-called RCMP expert witness, classed an expert witness on bloodpattern analyses, was accused of perjury and exposed in B.C. Supreme Court as the author of a flawed forensic report that got basic biology wrong.1 Who was this RCMP Officer? Staff Sgt. Ross Spenards credibility was shredded during the recent second-degree murder trial of Charlie Rae Lincoln, an aboriginal woman convicted of stabbing to death her own two-year-old. He acknowledged misleading the court and failing to send a letter to the Crown in the case revealing the concerns about the report and his errors.2 RCMP Spenard thought he covered his tracks by shredding documents [see Appendix 1, cited below]. He was wrong. As noted, armed with a copy of documents that Spenard thought were destroyed, defense lawyer Matthew Nathanson forced him to make a series of devastating admissions.3 The document was riddled with so many DNA misinterpretations and errors that the top experts in the field were flown in from Edmonton and Halifax to correct it. Some conclusions were not scientifically sound, they said.4 You were not being truthful, right? the lawyer said, confronting the Mountie with a transcript of his earlier testimony.5

37

Yes, I agree Spenard admitted.6 As emphasized, the performance was as bad as any at the Braidwood inquiry into the death of Robert Dziekanski, which has also featured RCMP officers seemingly uncomfortable with the truth.7 You will recall the Staff Sgt. Spenard gave some evidence of blood found in... [a] house at different places, the justice said before sending the jurors to deliberate. You have heard the Crown totally ignore his evidence, and I suggest to you that you do ignore his evidence completely.8 Staff. Sgt. Spenard is the perfect example of a person who clearly lied under oath, and violated his oath to tell the truth, and he even agreed to this. That conclusion is so clear and convincing, and so serious, that I suggest you should consider his evidence to be completely tainted, and without any value whatsoever.9 As further cited in Retired B.C. Mountie charged with perjury, a retired RCMP officer has been charged with one count of perjury for his testimony at the 2009 trial of a B.C. woman convicted of killing her own child.10 What a scum bucket? Only one charge? Pretty lenient, wouldnt you say? Former staff sergeant Ross Spenard, a 32-year veteran of the RCMP, is accused of lying while testifying in B.C. Supreme Court in May 2009. He was testifying as an expert witness in bloodstain pattern analysis during the second-degree murder trial of Charlie Rae Lincoln.11 During cross-examination by defence council at the 2009 trial, Spenard admitted he did not tell the whole truth in his earlier testimony.12 Justice John Truscott then advised the jury to ignore Spenard's evidence.13 "Staff Sgt. Spenard is the perfect example of a person who clearly lied under oath and violated his oath to tell the truth and he even agreed to this," Trustcott said. "That conclusion is so clear and convincing, and so serious, that I suggest you should consider his evidence to be completely tainted, and without any value whatsoever."14 Is this scum bucket getting a full pension at taxpayers expense? 38

Appendix 1 [RCMP Staff Sgt. Ross Spenard caught in a web of documents he thought had been destroyed] Caught in a web of documents he thought had been destroyed Blood-splatter expert admits to misleading court and failing to send a letter to the Crown revealing concerns about the forensic report Ian Mulgrew, Vancouver Sun, June 29, 2009 An RCMP blood-spatter expert has been accused of perjury and exposed in B.C. Supreme Court as the author of a flawed forensic report that got basic biology wrong. Staff Sgt. Ross Spenards credibility was shredded during the recent second-degree murder trial of Charlie Rae Lincoln, an aboriginal woman convicted of stabbing to death her own two-year-old. He acknowledged misleading the court and failing to send a letter to the Crown in the case revealing the concerns about the report and his errors. Until now, Spenard testified, no one outside of the RCMP had been told about the doubt cast upon other cases, some of which have been reviewed by other specialists. The officer has been a blood-pattern analyst for five years and giving evidence on the basis of his work as a recognized expert witness. In this case, he claimed to have peer-reviewed a report he actually helped author that was based on the mistaken assumption that if someone was a possible contributor of a DNA profile, or if a person couldnt be excluded as contributing to a DNA profile, then you could say the blood came from that person. Whats wrong with that logic is obvious: Anyone with a white car may be in the pool of suspects for a hit-and-run, but being potentially responsible is not the same as being culpable. Armed with a copy of documents that Spenard thought were destroyed, defence lawyer Matthew Nathanson forced him to make a series of devastating admissions, none thankfully that affected the outcome of the trial. The officer was at pains to try and mask the rewriting and review process that led to the creation of the impugned forensic report on blood spatter and DNA evidence in the brutal child-killing. The document was riddled with so many DNA misinterpretations and 40

errors that the top experts in the field were flown in from Edmonton and Halifax to correct it. Some conclusions were not scientifically sound, they said. Spenard was ordered to submit future reports for review and told to send an explanatory letter to the Crown. But he hid that from the judge until he withered under Nathansons crossexamination. You were not being truthful, right? the lawyer said, confronting the Mountie with a transcript of his earlier testimony. I was splitting hairs, the staff sergeant conceded. Officer, Nathanson pressed brandishing the transcript, do you agree that by splitting hairs, you were not being completely truthful? Yes, I agree. Spenard admitted he wrote the report supposedly authored by Sgt. James Gallant. That was an untrue answer that you gave to this jury in this case, right? Nathanson said. Not correct, the Mountie replied. No, it was not. Untrue, right? Nathanson continued. You said that he authored the report, right? You told the jury last week that [Sgt. Gallant] authored the report, right? And I was in error. That was untrue, was it not? Nathanson insisted. No, it was not untrue, the officer dissembled. I was in error. I was mistaken. You were confused about who had written the report? the lawyer scoffed. The circumstances, yes, said the Mountie. I realized I had written the report. The performance was as bad as any at the Braidwood inquiry into the 41

death of Robert Dziekanski, which has also featured RCMP officers seemingly uncomfortable with the truth. The force has conducted a review of other cases coming before the court in which Gallant was involved. But no review of completed cases in which he gave evidence has been done. Spenard also misled the court during earlier proceedings into believing Gallant was no longer doing blood-spatter work because he was seconded to an RCMP Olympic unit. He is not doing any policing at the moment. The Mountie said he lied under oath to protect his colleagues privacy. Justice John Truscott has not specifically addressed Spenards misconduct, but he was savage in his charge to the jury. You will recall the Staff Sgt. Spenard gave some evidence of blood found in... [a] house at different places, the justice said before sending the jurors to deliberate. You have heard the Crown totally ignore his evidence, and I suggest to you that you do ignore his evidence completely. Staff. Sgt. Spenard is the perfect example of a person who clearly lied under oath, and violated his oath to tell the truth, and he even agreed to this. That conclusion is so clear and convincing, and so serious, that I suggest you should consider his evidence to be completely tainted, and without any value whatsoever. After two days of deliberation, on June 17, the jury found the 23-year-old mom guilty of second-degree murder in the slaying of her toddler in July 2006 in the remote coastal town of Bella Bella. Nathanson had argued for a verdict of manslaughter because Lincoln suffers from the effects of fetal-alcohol syndrome and associated psychiatric problems.

Chapter 8 [What the RCMP apparently cant fabricate, they apparently screw-up continued?] Just because the RCMP didnt lay any charges in Warrant Officer Matt Stopfords poisoning doesnt mean much to the author! Apparently, what the RCMP cant fabricate in their investigations, as exemplified by these incidents, they screw up as cited in the next few chapters? The Killing of a Polish Immigrant - Within seconds, Robert Dziekanski had been Tasered. Even after falling to the ground, shrieking in pain, the RCMP repeatedly Tasered him: Did the RCMP get away with murder? Some appear to think yes! "Nothing will happen to them, still they are on the job, the four RCMP officers who caused Robert's death by what they did, and then they lie," said Cisowski [see Appendix 2, cited below].1 The case involved the vicious tasering to death of 40-year-old Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski. The RCMP lies start immediately. Richmond RCMP Sgt. Pierre Lemaitre said officers struggled to subdue the man: 'Even though he had received what they call pulses, two pulses from Taser, he was still out of control.'2 The man actually died after 4 Taser jolts, witness alleges.3 In fact, one witness said she offered to tell the RCMP officers what she witnessed, and that one officer said, "'I'll be with you in a few minutes.'" But the officers did not take a statement from her, she alleges.4 As reported, within seconds, he had been Tasered. Dziekanski, even after falling to the ground, shrieking in pain, was Tasered repeatedly.5 The cover-up begins! After the event, the Mounties all gave similar statements about how Dziekanski had come at them, yelling and wildly swinging the stapler, and how several officers had to wrestle the man to the ground.6

43

However, a video proves the RCMP officers outright lied! A witnesss video of the event showed none of that happened ... if not for the video, might have got away with whitewashing what the judge called the forces "shameful" conduct in the events that led to an innocent mans death.7 As further reported, I saw more RCMP officers lie to cover up this cowardly crime.8 Incredibly, on Dec. 12, 2008, B.C. Criminal Justice branch spokesman Stan Lowe "cleared" the four officers of any wrongdoing and portrayed Dziekanski as a violent and agitated alcoholic whose irrational behavior contributed to his own death.9 However, even this Stan Lowe was put in his place when Cisowski had the satisfaction of hearing Thomas Braidwood call the four Mounties "inappropriately aggressive" and "patently unbelievable," while emphasizing Dziekanski did nothing wrong nor in any way caused his own death.10 Caught in their lies thanks to videotape of the cowardly crime, as it has been described. Braidwood called the bystander video by Paul Pritchard of Dziekanski's Tasering death "invaluable" evidence that "couldn't be cross-examined."11 Onlookers were incredulous when RCMP Commissioner William Elliott said Friday he wouldn't be announcing any disciplinary measures for any of the four Mounties for their role in Dziekanski's death.12 Get away with murder and no consequences? Even the apology to Robert Dziekanskis mother was a bunch of RCMP bunk? A raft of internal RCMP emails was released through an Access to Information Act request showing that the April 1 apology was a carefullycrafted script designed not to blame any RCMP member.13 On the day before the staging of the apology, RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass reassured RCMP staff relations supervisor Brian Roach that their "apology" to Cisowski did not mean they were apologizing for anything specific that any of their officers had done.14 "Essentially, even though the word apology worries some, we are not 44

apologizing for the actions of specific members or saying anything about specific actions.15 Cisowski said yesterday "this just shows that the RCMP even when they apologize to me, they coverup.16 Actually tasered five times! The e-mail, sent by RCMP Chief Supt. Dick Bent to Assistant Commissioner Al Macintyre suggested for the first time that the four Mounties who responded to a call at Vancouver's airport planned to use a Taser on Robert Dziekanski, who died at the airport on Oct. 14, 2007, after he was Tasered five times.17 Finally: why do provinces put up with this police force, it would be less disastrous and more economically feasible to have their own provincial police forces -- more control?

Appendix 2 ['Still they get no consequences'] 'Still they get no consequences' Four Mounties involved should not get off scot-free, says Dziekanski's mother By Suzanne Fournier, The Province June 20, 2010 Zofia Cisowski's "darkest hour" after learning that her son Robert Dziekanski was dead came when B.C. criminal justice officials declared that the RCMP had done nothing wrong -- and that it was her son's own fault that he died. Now that she has been vindicated by the Braidwood Inquiry report castigating the officers and ruling her son did nothing wrong, Cisowski still carries with her a news clipping containing the earlier blaming, hurtful words. On Dec. 12, 2008, B.C. Criminal Justice branch spokesman Stan Lowe "cleared" the four officers of any wrongdoing and portrayed Dziekanski as a violent and agitated alcoholic whose irrational behaviour contributed to his own death. Last week, Walter Kosteckyj, Cisowski's lawyer, said "that was Zofia's darkest hour, after losing her son, and that's why she still carries that news clipping with her." So far, Cisowski notes, none of the four Mounties "has ever got any consequences." On Friday, Cisowski had the satisfaction of hearing Thomas Braidwood call the four Mounties "inappropriately aggressive" and "patently unbelievable," while emphasizing Dziekanski did nothing wrong nor in any way caused his own death. "This tragic case is at its heart the story of shameful conduct by a few officers," Braidwood said. "It ought not to reflect unfairly on the many thousands of RCMP and other police officers who have protected our communities and earned a welldeserved reputation in doing so." Cisowski heard B.C. Attorney-General Mike de Jong promise to appoint a special prosecutor and commit to a citizen-led Independent Investigation Office to conduct criminal investigations into RCMP or municipal police incidents causing death or harm.

47

Friday was an exhausting day after a night in which Cisowski slept little, coming at the end of years of hearings in which a video of her son's death was screened repeatedly -- although it helped a kind and patient former judge get to the truth. Braidwood called the bystandervideo by Paul Pritchard of Dziekanski's Tasering death "invaluable" evidence that "couldn't be cross-examined." Cisowski received an apology Friday from the RCMP's top cop, Commissioner William Elliott. Yet as a mother, Cisowski did not hear from Elliott -- the first lawyer and non-cop to head the national RCMP -- the words she has waited so long to hear, she said. "Nothing will happen to them, still they are on the job, the four policemen who caused Robert's death by what they did, and then they lie," said Cisowski. Listening to Elliott say the RCMP has reformed its training and Taser policies, Cisowski whispered: "Still they get no consequences for causing my son's death." Braidwood's 460-page report, entitled simply Why? The Robert Dziekanski Tragedy, is a blistering denunciation of the four Mounties who Tasered and restrained Dziekanski face down, then left him unattended until he died. Onlookers were incredulous when Elliott said Friday he wouldn't be announcing any disciplinary measures for any of the four Mounties for their role in Dziekanski's death. He said he would await the special prosecutor's report. Elliott acknowledged that Cpl. Benjamin Monty Robinson is suspended with pay, but only in connection with the unrelated traffic death of a motorcyclist. That matter doesn't go to trial until April 2011. The other three -- Const. Gerry Rundel, Const. Bill Bentley and Const. Kwesi Millington -- are "on the job but not in front-line policing," said Elliott, who couldn't explain why the four officers could be criticized about an unjustified death and yet remain on the RCMP payroll. Elliott hinted it might even be too late to mete out internal punishment, but admitted: "We recognize there needs to be fairly fundamental changes in our discipline system."

48

Braidwood said the four Mounties behaved as if they were responding to a "barroom brawl," and senior officer Robinson "intervened in an inappropriately aggressive manner." "I found that Mr. Dziekanski had been compliant, was not defiant or resistant, did not brandish the stapler and did not move toward any of the officers," Braidwood said. "I concluded the constable [Millington] was not justified in deploying the weapon and neither the constable nor the corporal honestly perceived that Mr. Dziekanski was intending to attack any of the officers." Braidwood said the other two officers also "offered patently unbelievable after-the-fact rationalizations of their police notes and statements to [the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team]." As for Robinson's claim that the Mounties made a point to check if Dziekanski was alive, Braidwood was dismissive. "I can place little reliance on the testimony of Cpl. Robinson that he constantly monitored Mr. Dziekanski's breathing until the firefighters arrived. Similarly, I find unpersuasive the testimony of Const. Rundel that . . . he knelt down near Mr. Dziekanski and heard him breathing and snoring. "I am satisfied that Mr. Dziekanski went into cardiac arrest first, then went unconscious, and finally showed signs of cyanosis, all within 75 seconds of being handcuffed." De Jong was prompt to appoint special prosecutor Richard Peck to look into possible criminal charges against the four Mounties. "There was misconduct here and that reflects badly [on the RCMP]," said de Jong. "The human dimension in this is staggering, that someone would be lost within an airport for hours, separated by a glass door forever from one of his loved ones." The stark images on the Pritchard film, of the police behaviour and a man's death, had enormous impact, said De Jong. "Many people [not just in B.C.] remember where they were at the time the film was shown," he said.

Chapter 9 [What the RCMP apparently cant fabricate, they apparently screw-up again?] Just because the RCMP didnt lay any charges in Warrant Officer Matt Stopfords poisoning doesnt mean much to the author! Apparently, what the RCMP cant fabricate in their investigations, as exemplified by these incidents, they screw up as cited in the next few chapters? No one but a moron (RCMP Commissioner William Elliott) overlooks the import of an e-mail like this in the vicious tasering to death of 40-year-old Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski: The case involving the vicious tasering to death of 40-year-old Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski warrants an additional chapter to see the extent of the lies by the RCMP to cover-up. As noted, we have seen often-quoted Mountie mouthpiece Cpl. Dale Carr tell the Braidwood inquiry that top RCMP brass made a deliberate decision not to correct misinformation RCMP had given to the media about Dziekanskis death.1 In fact, e-mail suggests four RCMP Officers committed perjury while senior officers sat silent,2 specifically suggests Mounties planned to deploy Taser before they arrived at YVR, contrary to their testimony.3 As reported, after months of outrage about the conduct of the four Mounties who responded to Vancouver Airport Oct. 14, 2007, who can believe that at the last minute, a federal lawyer would produce what many would consider a smoking gun -- an e-mail saying the officers decided to use the Taser before confronting the Polish immigrant?4 If true, the Nov. 5, 2007, e-mail titled "Media strategy -- release of the YVR video," from RCMP Chief Supt. Dick Bent to assistant commissioner Al McIntyre, establishes the four have been lying through their teeth. This critical document suggests the four officers committed perjury and that senior officers sat silent while they did so.5 "The documents that have just come to our attention include a critical email from very high up in the RCMP chain of command, disclosing that the officers decided in a premeditated way, en route to the scene.6 Even the RCMP lawyers apparently lie? Lawyer Helen Roberts, who represents the RCMP at the inquiry, offered 51

a tearful apology to inquiry commissioner Thomas Braidwood, a retired judge, for not disclosing the e-mail sooner.7 Helen Roberts had every reason to be in tears Friday as she apologized to the public inquiry into Dziekanski's death for failing to disclose what appears to be not just germane but also startlingly important evidence.8 Roberts crocodile tears dont wash! If Roberts had cried over Dziekanski mother's pain, I would be moved -but a veteran lawyer wet-eyed over another screw-up in this case? I think they were crocodile tears.9 "I find this delay in disclosing it to the commission appalling," Braidwood said. "The contents of this e-mail goes to the heart of this inquiry's work."10 "It should have been disclosed much, much sooner ... months and months ago."11 "It's a stunning turn of events," Don Rosenbloom, the lawyer representing the government of Poland at the inquiry.12 Rosenbloom said the 11th-hour disclosure "is totally inconsistent with testimony given under oath" and goes to the heart of the issue of police fabrication. During the hearing, he said, "we were alleging [the four Mounties] were fabricating their story."13 The RCMP fabrication was, in fact, true! Dziekanski's mother told reporters she was surprised and angry about the e-mail being released so late. She suggested there had been a "coverup."14 "This is the kind of evidence someone should have known would have important consequences," said Walter Kosteckyj, the lawyer representing Dziekanski's mother at the inquiry.15 He said he had spent the last two weeks preparing his final arguments for the inquiry, only to find not all the evidence has been heard.16 The RCMP lawyer tries to white-wash the facts? David Butcher, the lawyer representing Const. Bill Bentley, one of the four Mounties involved in the in-custody death, said Bent's e-mail was hearsay and not credible evidence.17

52

B.C. Attorney-General Mike de Jong said he was concerned about the new development, "the possibility that new evidence may be emerging at this late date is troubling, and I'm sure very troubling for the commission itself," he said.18 "Commissions of this sort, and really our system of justice, rely on all witnesses who give evidence under oath to provide truthful and honest answers."19 Incredibly, Commissioner William Elliott's carefully parsed press release was equally unbelievable: "This was simply an oversight. Unfortunately in an exercise of this magnitude, such an oversight can occur."20 Elliott a moron, as cited, no one but a moron overlooks the import of an e-mail like this [see Appendix 3, 4 & 5, cited below].21 That was not an "oversight." It was professional incompetence or a coverup.22 Paul Kennedy, the chairman of the Commission for Public Complaints Against the RCMP, using a news conference in Vancouver, took some well-aimed verbal shots at stagnant RCMP culture, especially its notorious, self-destructive resistance to change. It is a massively inert organization, he said, and that must not stand.23 Footnotes 1. RCMP admissions in Dziekanski Taser death are troubling. By Damian Inwood, Wed, Apr 22 2009. 2.

Appendix 3 [Damning e-mail suggests the four RCMP officers committed perjury and that senior RCMP officers sat silent while they did] Column: Mounties in Tasering should face prosecution: Damning e-mail suggests the four RCMP officers committed perjury and that senior RCMP officers sat silent while they did By Ian Mulgrew; June 20, 2009 - Vancouver Sun The Braidwood Inquiry into the Taser-related death of Robert Dziekanski has been blown up and left in ruins by the revelation a key RCMP e-mail was withheld from the commission. After months of outrage about the conduct of the four Mounties who responded to Vancouver Airport Oct. 14, 2007, who can believe that at the last minute, a federal lawyer would produce what many would consider a smoking gun -- an e-mail saying the officers decided to use the Taser before confronting the Polish immigrant? If true, the Nov. 5, 2007, e-mail titled "Media strategy -- release of the YVR video," from RCMP Chief Supt. Dick Bent to assistant commissioner Al McIntyre, establishes the four have been lying through their teeth. This critical document suggests the four officers committed perjury and that senior officers sat silent while they did so. Worse, it seems there are many other documents that have not been turned over that may be relevant. This e-mail was one of 260 documents on a CD sent by the RCMP to the justice department last April, yet the federal lawyers didn't open the CD until last week. Last week? Evidence delivered in April didn't get opened until last week? What? Helen Roberts had every reason to be in tears Friday as she apologized to the public inquiry into Dziekanski's death for failing to disclose what appears to be not just germane but also startlingly important evidence. If Roberts had cried over Dziekanski mother's pain, I would be moved -but a veteran lawyer wet-eyed over another screw-up in this case? I think they were crocodile tears.

55

Commissioner William Elliott's carefully parsed press release was equally unbelievable: "This was simply an oversight. Unfortunately in an exercise of this magnitude, such an oversight can occur." Bollocks. No one but a moron overlooks the import of an e-mail like this. The officers deny the explosive content is true and Roberts says Bent was wrong in what he said. But their protestations ring hollow after almost 18 months of bluster and denial. So does Elliott's threadbare these-thingshappen excuse. The situation is as bad as the most virulent critics of the Mounties feared. This is no longer about four officers who made mistakes in judgment: It's about an organization that thinks it is above the law. "I find this delay in disclosing it to the commission appalling," an upset Braidwood said. "The contents of this e-mail goes to the heart of this inquiry's work." Exactly. Braidwood says his inquiry will resume on Sept. 22 after commission lawyers have time to review the e-mail, conduct an investigation and perhaps call the senior Mounties to testify about the document. I think not. There was a time when I thought Oct. 14, 2007 was the day that would live in the annals of RCMP infamy, but June 19, 2009 has eclipsed the tragedy of Dziekanski's death. On Friday, a country's faith in a once proud, once revered institution died. We have left the realm of how to regulate Taser use and the circumstances of Dziekanski's death and entered the world of criminal conduct -- which is beyond Braidwood's provincially rooted authority to investigate. If we needed any prod to reopen the decision not to prosecute these officers, we now have been given it. It is time to thank commissioner Braidwood for his excellent work in bringing these unsettling facts to light and it's time to appoint a special prosecutor.

56

The B.C. Law Society should also begin an investigation into the conduct of Roberts and any other federal lawyer involved in this staggering lack of disclosure. That was not an "oversight." It was professional incompetence or a coverup.

Appendix 4 [E-mail Suggests Four RCMP Officers Committed Perjury] E-mail Suggests Four RCMP Officers Committed Perjury While Senior Officers Sat Silent By Neal Hall and Lori Culbert; June 20, 2009 - Vancouver Sun Contributed by blackandred on Sun, 2009/06/21 - 2:30pm. In sections: British Columbia Canada Accountability Rights Security apparatus Startling New Email Halts Inquiry Suggests Mounties planned to deploy Taser before they arrived at YVR, contrary to their testimony A shocking e-mail found last week brought the Braidwood inquiry to a sudden halt Friday and may result in the most senior RCMP officers in B.C. being required to testify. The e-mail, sent by RCMP Chief Supt. Dick Bent to Assistant Commissioner Al Macintyre suggested for the first time that the four Mounties who responded to a call at Vancouver's airport planned to use a Taser on Robert Dziekanski, who died at the airport on Oct. 14, 2007, after he was Tasered five times. Under the subject line "Media Strategy - Release of YVR video," the email, dated Nov. 5, 2007, said: "Finally spoke to [Supt.] Wayne [Rideout] and he indicated that the members did not articulate that they saw the symptoms of excited delirium, but instead had discussed the response en route and decided that if he did not comply that they would go to CEW [conducted energy weapon]." Lawyers for the four RCMP officers involved in the fatal incident said Friday their clients deny they formulated a plan to use a Taser on Dziekanski. The officers testified at the inquiry they arrived in separate police cars and had no discussion beforehand. Alex Pringle, a lawyer representing Rideout, who was in charge of investigating Dziekanski's death, appeared at the inquiry Friday and read a statement from his client, which said Bent's e-mail was in error. Pringle said it was a "misunderstanding of a conversation I had with him." Lawyer Helen Roberts, who represents the RCMP at the inquiry, offered a tearful apology to inquiry commissioner Thomas Braidwood, a retired judge, for not disclosing the e-mail sooner. 58

She also said Bent was mistaken in his e-mail and that the officers did not plan to use the Taser. She offered to have senior Mounties testify. "I find this delay in disclosing it to the commission appalling," Braidwood said. "The contents of this e-mail goes to the heart of this inquiry's work." The e-mail will have to be investigated and further hearings may be required, the commissioner said. He ordered the inquiry adjourned until Sept. 22. The delay was due to summer plans already made by many of the lawyers involved in the inquiry, he added. Friday was supposed to be the start of final submissions by lawyers representing various parties, including the four Mounties involved in the in-custody death. Commission counsel Art Vertlieb told the inquiry that the new e-mail was disclosed Tuesday by lawyers for the federal justice department, which represents the RCMP. "It should have been disclosed much, much sooner ... months and months ago," Vertlieb later told reporters, adding he was "upset and frustrated" by the last-minute disclosure. He said he didn't know whether the RCMP disclosed the e-mail to Crown counsel before a decision was made that no criminal charges were warranted against the four officers. Vertlieb told the inquiry that the Bent e-mail was among 260 documents on a CD sent by the RCMP to the justice department in April, just before RCMP media relations officers testified at the inquiry about the botched handling of information released to the media in the days after Dziekanski's death. He said the federal lawyers didn't open the CD until last week, discovering the Bent e-mail and other documents. "It's a stunning turn of events," Don Rosenbloom, the lawyer representing the government of Poland at the inquiry, told reporters after the commissioner ordered the three-month adjournment. "The documents that have just come to our attention include a critical email from very high up in the RCMP chain of command, disclosing that

the officers decided in a premeditated way, en route to the scene, to use the Taser if Mr. Dziekanski did not comply." Rosenbloom said the 11th-hour disclosure "is totally inconsistent with testimony given under oath" and goes to the heart of the issue of police fabrication. During the hearing, he said, "we were alleging [the four Mounties] were fabricating their story." Dziekanski's mother told reporters she was surprised and angry about the e-mail being released so late. She suggested there had been a "coverup." "This is the kind of evidence someone should have known would have important consequences," said Walter Kosteckyj, the lawyer representing Dziekanski's mother at the inquiry. He said he had spent the last two weeks preparing his final arguments for the inquiry, only to find not all the evidence has been heard. David Butcher, the lawyer representing Const. Bill Bentley, one of the four Mounties involved in the in-custody death, said Bent's e-mail was hearsay and not credible evidence. "The chief superintendent is simply wrong," he said. The late disclosure of the e-mail was the result of an oversight, RCMP Commissioner William Elliott said in a statement issued Friday. "We have produced thousands of documents to our legal counsel for their review and for them to transmit all relevant material to the commission," Elliott said, pointing out that it was the RCMP that brought the Bent email to the attention of the inquiry commissioner on Friday. "Commissioner Braidwood was informed that a specific document was not provided and he himself accepted the government of Canada's sincere apologies for this oversight," Elliott's statement said. "The RCMP wants all of the facts surrounding this tragic event to be known so that we can learn as much as possible and make any further required changes to the RCMP's policies and practices." B.C. Attorney-General Mike de Jong said he was concerned about the new development.

"The possibility that new evidence may be emerging at this late date is troubling, and I'm sure very troubling for the commission itself," he said. "Commissions of this sort, and really our system of justice, rely on all witnesses who give evidence under oath to provide truthful and honest answers." Whether the testimony in the Dziekanski inquiry has been truthful will be up to Braidwood to decide, de Jong said. It will be up to Braidwood to assess the new evidence and determine its relevance before making his findings, he said, adding that it was too early to comment on the possible fallout from Friday's events. The attorney-general said it would be premature to comment on whether criminal charges against the four officers should be reconsidered. "I'm not going to rule anything in or out. I am going to wait with keen interest for Mr. Braidwood's report." Dziekanski, who spoke no English, had travelled for 24 hours from Poland and spent about 10 hours at the airport, unable to find his mother, who went home to Kamloops after being told by officials that her son couldn't be found. The 40-year-old man eventually started throwing around furniture, prompting a bystander to call 911. Seconds after four Mounties arrived, Dziekanski was Tasered. He died at the scene.

Appendix 5 [The RCMP had decided to electrocute him before they even saw him] They had decided to electrocute him before they even saw him 19.06.09.18:24:00 Rusty Idols,New Democrats Online In the car on the way to the airport as revealed in an email the government finally revealed on what was supposed to be the last day of the Braidwood Commission. And you thought the RCMP's behavior couldn't look any worse. This e-mail was one of 260 documents on a CD sent by the RCMP to the justice department last April, yet the federal lawyers didnt open the CD until last week. Last week? Evidence delivered in April didnt get opened until last week? What? Helen Roberts had every reason to be in tears Friday as she apologized to the public inquiry into Dziekanskis death for failing to disclose what appears to be not just germane but also startlingly important evidence. If Roberts had cried over Dziekanski mothers pain, I would be moved but a veteran lawyer wet-eyed over another screw-up in this case? I think they were crocodile tears. Commissioner William Elliotts carefully parsed press release was equally unbelievable: This was simply an oversight. Unfortunately in an exercise of this magnitude, such an oversight can occur. Bollocks. No one but a moron overlooks the import of an e-mail like this. The officers deny the explosive content is true and Roberts says Bent was wrong in what he said. But their protestations ring hollow after almost 18 months of bluster and denial. So does Elliotts threadbare these-thingshappen excuse. The situation is as bad as the most virulent critics of the Mounties feared. This is no longer about four officers who made mistakes in judgment: Its about an organization that thinks it is above the law.

Apparently, what the RCMP cant fabricate in their investigations, as exemplified by these incidents, they screw up as cited in the next few chapters? RCMP arrogance in bungling of Pickton case: Perhaps the greatest incompetence the RCMP could have made was their arrogance in bungling of Pickton case where their reluctance to cooperate with other police forces played a role in allowing pig farmer to go on killing1 [see Appendix 6, cited below]. As emphasized by Rob Gordon of Simon Fraser University. The RCMP know all, cannot be told anything.2 The RCMP is facing criticism in the wake of a scathing Vancouver Police Department report detailing investigative missteps on the hunt for serial killer Robert Pickton.3 Theres ample evidence to indicate that the RCMP does not play well with others and most certainly was not playing well with others in relation to the Pickton matter, Prof. Gordon said.4 Thirteen women disappeared from Vancouvers Downtown Eastside after the citys police force first forwarded information about Mr. Pickton to the RCMP, according to the police review.5 The 400-page document said mistakes prevented police from arresting Mr. Pickton until 2002 years after officers first started looking at him as they investigated reports of missing sex workers and that he could have been caught earlier.6 Mr. MacKay-Dunn, now a councillor in the District of North Vancouver, said he was one of the first officers to believe a serial killer could be responsible for the disappearances of dozens of women from the Downtown Eastside.7 He said he consistently encountered resistance from RCMP brass throughout his career, but rank-and-file officers from all forces seemed to get along.8

63

But Mr. MacKay-Dunn and Prof. Gordon both agree that the RCMP should not have its current 20-year service contract in British Columbia renewed. The current RCMP contract in British Columbia expires in 2012. Absolutely, dont do it, Mr. MacKay-Dunn said.9 As further reported, two years after B.C. prosecutors dropped attempted murder charges against Robert Pickton, Leah Best warned that the Port Coquitlam man was a killer but her warning was not heeded, saying the RCMP didnt seem like they cared.10 I did feel angry about it, Ms. Best told CTV. It didnt seem like they cared. Eleven years later, she is convinced that 13 womens lives could have been saved if police had acted more aggressively on her information.11 Ms. Best, now a grandmother in her 50s living in the Fraser Valley, says she was introduced to Mr. Pickton through a friend, Lynn Ellingsen, who was getting money from him for drugs.12 Lynn said he was a millionaire, she said. I said, Oh, some millionaire, with gumboots and a tattered jacket.13 Mr. Pickton looked dirty, but didnt appear creepy, she said. It wasnt until she ran into Ms. Ellingsen at a friends house that a truly horrifying story came out.14 She was staying at Willies the night before, Ms. Best said. She was out wandering and came upon Willie in the barn. She said he was gutting a woman.15 Ms. Best was surprised but thought the story had a ring of truth. Ms. Best said she thought Ms. Ellingsen would go to the police with the information. A month later, Ms. Best went to the Burnaby RCMP detachment herself.16 She was one of three informants in 1999 who related the same story: that Ms. Ellingsen had seen a woman being butchered at the farm.17 I thought that they would have got a search warrant or something right away, and looked in the freezers at least, she said.18 RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass said "the RCMP deeply regrets that we weren't able to gather the evidence necessary to lay a charge sooner.19 As further reported, twenty outstanding murder charges against convicted 64

serial killer Robert Pickton have been stayed by the Crown, ending the prospect of any more trials.20 Pickton, a former Port Coquitlam pig farmer now serving a life sentence in prison, was found guilty on six counts of second-degree murder in December 2007 in the deaths of women from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside neighbourhood.21 He was originally charged with killing 26 women, but the Crown decided first to pursue the six cases most likely to result in convictions.22 The victims disappeared from the troubled Vancouver neighbourhood between 1978 and 2001, and traces of their remains were found on Pickton's farm, about 25 kilometres east of the city.23 He was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for at least 25 years. Pickton appealed the convictions to the Supreme Court of Canada, which ruled unanimously in a decision released last week that he would not a get new trial.24 Footnotes 1 - 9.

Appendix 6 [RCMP arrogance cited in bungling of Pickton case] Deadly blunders sully police reputations Robert Matas and Justine Hunter Vancouver and Victoria From Saturday's Globe and Mail Published Friday, Sep. 10, 2010 8:18PM EDT Last updated Friday, Sep. 10, 2010 8:20PM EDT When forces collide: Different codes of conduct, different masters and sometimes just different police channels can result in deadly blunders. An extensive review of the Vancouver Police Departments investigation into the citys missing women concluded that a regional police force might have led to the arrest of serial killer Robert (Willie) Pickton much earlier. Crime Stoppers received the first tip in the case on July 27, 1998. The caller described a man known as Willie who picked up prostitutes and reported that a recent visitor to his trailer saw at least 10 purses and womens identification. The caller also said Willie told others he could easily dispose of bodies by putting them through a grinder which he uses to prepare food to feed his hogs. The tipster called back less than two weeks later, identifying the man as Willie Pickton and advised that Mr. Pickton killed Sarah (de Vries) and possibly all the missing women. By early 1999, some VPD officers strongly believed that further investigation of Mr. Pickton was warranted. However, VPD had to rely on the RCMP to pursue the investigation because the alleged crime scene was in Port Coquitlam and the RCMP were responsible for policing there. The investigation stalled at that point. Port Coquitlam RCMP turned to the Provincial Unsolved Homicide Unit, an integrated team of RCMP and municipal officers. The integrated unit had no vested interest in the investigation and did not agree to pursue the information that was available, Deputy Chief Doug LePard says. Vancouver police made several attempts to bring the RCMP and the homicide unit into the missing women investigation. In one instance, VPD Detective Lori Shenher in May, 1999, asked the RCMP for copies of files regarding homicides of six women that could possibly be linked to Mr. Pickton. It took nine months for the RCMP to respond to her. The Missing Women Task Force first met in January, 2001. Mr. Pickton was finally arrested after a rookie cop obtained a search warrant to investigate a report of an unrelated crime. Also Referenced: RCMP arrogance cited in bungling of Pickton case 66

Dirk Meissner, Victoria The Canadian Press Published Sunday, Aug. 22, 2010 9:53PM EDT Last updated Thursday, Sep. 09, 2010 6:50PM EDT The RCMP is facing criticism in the wake of a scathing Vancouver Police Department report detailing investigative missteps on the hunt for serial killer Robert Pickton. A British Columbia criminologist said Mounties are trained to believe they are Canadas top cops, while considering provincial and municipal officers below standard. Theres long been tensions between the RCMP and municipal police services, said Rob Gordon of Simon Fraser University. The RCMP know all, cannot be told anything, and theyre the ones who alone stand between chaos and civilized society. He pointed to deep-rooted RCMP arrogance on the Pickton investigation, where Mounties and Vancouver police officers withheld information from each other about women whod been reported missing from the Downtown Eastside beginning in the mid-1990s. Mr. Picktons crimes came to light only when a rookie Mountie showed up looking for weapons on the former pig farmers sprawling property in suburban Port Coquitlam in 2002. Theres ample evidence to indicate that the RCMP does not play well with others and most certainly was not playing well with others in relation to the Pickton matter, Prof. Gordon said. The Vancouver police report, authored by Deputy Chief Constable Doug LePard, said both its own department and the RCMP are to blame for errors made during the investigation. Thirteen women disappeared from Vancouvers Downtown Eastside after the citys police force first forwarded information about Mr. Pickton to the RCMP, according to the police review. The 400-page document said mistakes prevented police from arresting Mr. Pickton until 2002 years after officers first started looking at him as they investigated reports of missing sex workers and that he could have been caught earlier. RCMP havent commented on the LePard report, saying they need to read it first, but have already stated they disagree with some of its conclusions.

67

Prof. Gordon noted other examples of RCMP problems were highlighted in the report of the Air India inquiry, which criticized the Mounties for fighting turf wars with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service during the investigation into twin Air India bombings in 1985 that killed a total of 331 people. Prof. Gordon said the Mounties have also caused problems with the various Vancouver-area combined police teams fighting gang violence. He said a Vancouver police biker gang expert was drummed out of his post in a combined RCMP-municipal team by the Mounties. He was a sergeant with the VPD, been a project leader, and ran into all kinds of difficulty, he said. The guy was an expert, but was treated very poorly by his RCMP colleagues. Former Vancouver police officer Doug MacKay-Dunn, who served in the Downtown Eastside and retired in 2001 after 31 years of service, said he encountered difficulties working with Mounties. At that point, the RCMP didnt necessarily get along that well with other organizations, he said. They didnt like being told what to do. They were Canadas national force and they considered themselves the cream of the cream. They figured they were the best of the best. Mr. MacKay-Dunn, now a councillor in the District of North Vancouver, said he was one of the first officers to believe a serial killer could be responsible for the disappearances of dozens of women from the Downtown Eastside. He said he consistently encountered resistance from RCMP brass throughout his career, but rank-and-file officers from all forces seemed to get along. But Mr. MacKay-Dunn and Prof. Gordon both agree that the RCMP should not have its current 20-year service contract in British Columbia renewed. The current RCMP contract in British Columbia expires in 2012. Absolutely, dont do it, Mr. MacKay-Dunn said. Prof. Gordon called the RCMP a broken organization, and said trying to change the Mounties would be like bending granite.

68

He warned the current Liberal government against signing any new contract with the Mounties. If they are going for another 20 years and the province signs off on it, the current government deserves to fall, Prof. Gordon said. The RCMP launched a massive search on Mr, Picktons farm in 2002, uncovering the remains or DNA of 33 women. He was charged with 27 counts of murder and eventually convicted in the murders of six women. Also see: RCMP seeking serial killer for 1995 deaths in B.C. By Petti Fong, Western Bureau Published On Wed Nov 3 2010 VANCOUVERA serial killer who disposed of the bodies of three women in remote areas east of Vancouver may be dead or already in jail. The RCMP confirmed this week that they are looking for a serial killer after finding similarities in the cases of three victims whose bodies were discovered within two months of each other near the same area in 1995. Staff Sergeant John Cater with the RCMP said investigators have ruled out Robert Pickton as the womens killer but said whoever is responsible may have been convicted of other crimes. Pickton is Canadas most prolific convicted serial killer. He was charged with killing 26 women and convicted of second degree murder in six of those charges in 2007. The Supreme Court of Canada earlier this year rejected his bid for a new trial. Pickton is serving a sentence of 25 years without possibility of parole. The three victims were all living and working in the same area as Picktons victims in Vancouvers working class Downtown Eastside. Pickton was linked to dozens of women who went missing from the area starting in the 1980s. The disappearances continued until shortly before Pickton was arrested in 2002. Pickton has been excluded of being responsible for these murders, said Cater Tuesday. There is no connection whatsoever. Cater said the three victims were killed shortly before their bodies were discovered in the fall of 1995 and police have made appeals before for information. 69

The RCMP released photos of some of the forensic evidence they have found at the crime scene along with more details to try and get more tips coming in. It appears to be working. Cater said Tuesday that police have been getting tips since making a public appeal Monday. We have been successful in tracking down all sorts of people who could be responsible. The suspect could be deceased, in jail doing long-term crime or could have left the area, Cater said. Were hopeful now on the 15th anniversary that someone will come forward with information. Tracy Fadola Olajide was the first victim to be found. The 30-year-old Olajide was working in the Downtown Eastside as a sex trade worker and was addicted to crack cocaine and the mother of one child. Her body was discovered on a logging road on Aug. 12. Two weeks later, the body of Tammy Lee Pipe, a 24-year-old who was known to give money and clothing to the poor and supported her cocaine habit by working as a sex trade worker in the Downtown Eastside, was found in a remote wooded area in the same area. One month later, the body of Victoria Lynn Younker, 35, who was also a sex trade worker and drug addict, was found laying in the embankment at the dead end of a logging road in the same area. Simon Fraser University criminologist Rob Gordon said Tuesday that since Pickton was arrested there were theories that the former pig farmer from Port Coquitlam did not commit the murders by himself. The bodies of the three victims were left out in the open likely to decompose, said Gordon. That difference with Picktons victims, whose bodies had been disposed of in a rendering plant on the farm, is the strongest indication that police are looking at another serial killer. Gordon said Tuesday that the RCMP are dealing with a very tough investigation. Pickton continued his killing spree until just before he was caught. With this serial killer, Gordon said police have three victims killed 15 years ago and nothing since. The chances of the police being able to identify the person responsible is frankly zero, said Gordon. The trail is obviously stone cold.

The Vancouver Sun Friday, November 23, 2001 DNA testing has cleared the prime suspect in the murders of three women from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside whose bodies were discovered in the Fraser Valley in 1995, The Vancouver Sun has learned. The DNA results mean the real serial killer has gone undetected for six years and police say he could be responsible for some of Vancouver's missing women cases. "He could still be doing it and disposing of the bodies efficiently," RCMP Constable Paul McCarl confirmed in a recent interview. Police said in 1995 that they believed the same man killed Tracy Olajide, Tammy Lee Pipe and Victoria Younker, whose bodies were found that year near Agassiz and Mission. The three women -- like those who have disappeared since -- were all involved in drugs and the sex trade. During the investigation, police developed a long list of possible suspects by reviewing serious sex assaults of women, especially prostitutes. The review led them to one particular suspect, who was identified in 1995 as Ronald Richard McCauley, a roofer from Mission. One of the things that caught investigators' attention was that McCauley picked up a prostitute at Vancouver's Astoria Hotel in July of that year and drove her to Hemlock Valley, where she was beaten, raped and dumped from his truck -- just a few kilometres from where Olajide's body was later found. The woman reported the incident to police and McCauley, who had a record of similar violent offences, was arrested in September 1995, convicted of rape in 1996, declared a dangerous offender, and jailed indefinitely. "He surfaced pretty quick and he looked really, really good," said McCarl, who is the lead investigator on the Olajide and Pipe homicides. The things McCauley had done to the victim in the rape case, were similar to what had been done to the murder victims, McCarl said. He also lived in the area, had a vehicle consistent with the suspect's, and he was known to frequent the Downtown Eastside and hire prostitutes. In addition, McCauley once told a parole hearing that had he not been arrested for two rapes and attempted murders in the early 1980s, he "would have become a serial killer such as Clifford Olson." 71

"I thought we had the guy," McCarl said. But despite the circumstantial evidence, police never had enough to lay murder charges against McCauley. The semen recovered at the crime scenes in 1995 had been degraded by bacteria and police were initially unable to test it, McCarl said. As the years passed and technology improved, however, the laboratory eventually used new techniques to re-test the samples and provide police with a DNA analysis. The results confirmed that one person was "associated" to at least two of the women prior to their deaths. The findings also raised the possibility that two men might have been involved in the murders. But, unfortunately for police, the results also confirmed that investigators had the wrong name at the top of their suspect list; Ronald Richard McCauley wasn't their man, after all. "He looked the best, so we pursued him," McCarl said. "And when we found out it wasn't going to be him, we were all disappointed." In fact, it was such a surprise to police, that investigators tried for a time to figure out whether McCauley might still have been involved, so convincing was the circumstantial evidence against him. "But realistically, we decided it's not him, it's somebody else," McCarl said. McCauley did not respond to requests for an interview, but his former lawyer, Susan Ludford, said she wasn't surprised by the RCMP's findings. "He volunteered that DNA sample to clear himself," Ludford said. The RCMP didn't use a warrant to get it. "So I'm glad he's cleared; I didn't think he was guilty of that in the first place." The DNA results were a significant turn of events for the RCMP, because investigators considered McCauley a suspect not only in the Olajide, Pipe and Younker homicides, but in the disappearances or murders of four other women as well. Mary Lidguerre, Catherine Gonzalez, Catherine Knight and Dorothy Spence all vanished from the Downtown Eastside the same year as the Valley murders. Lidguerre's remains were found two years later in North 72

Vancouver, but the bodies of Gonzalez, Knight and Spence have never been found, and their names are currently on the list of up to 45 women who have vanished from city streets over the past two decades. The RCMP did not consider McCauley a suspect in the disappearances of women who vanished after September, 1995, because he was in custody from that point onward. But now he has been cleared, it means the real killer could be responsible for the three Valley murders, Lidguerre's death and any number of the missing women cases as well. "If you just look at some of them, you see there's some consistencies," McCarl said. "Where were they missing from? What were they doing prior to when they went missing? Who were their associates? "There's got to be a couple more ... that the same person's responsible for. "And my personal belief is that Vancouver isn't the only hunting ground. The person's probably hunting over on the Island, up in the Interior, and across the border." Given that possibility, senior investigators met in Kelowna last year to discuss cases of murdered and missing sex trade workers from around the province. The Valley murders, Vancouver's missing women, and the murders of women on Vancouver Island and in the Interior were all part of the agenda. In the end, McCarl said investigators agreed on the need for a joint forces team assigned exclusively to those files. The feeling, he says, was that "they shouldn't work on anything else and that way they can stay focused and pursue it until they conclude it." Earlier this year, the RCMP and Vancouver city police moved to set up just such a team, which now has 16 people doing a review of missing and murdered sex trade worker files from around the province. Interestingly, the person selected for the file coordinator's job on the task force, also has a direct link to the Valley murders; Sergeant Wayne Clary attended the scene where Younker's body was discovered in 1995 and he also attended the autopsy. Clary acknowledges the possible link between the missing women cases and the Valley murders, but said it's strictly a coincidence that he has worked both files. His involvement in the Valley murders was limited to attending the crime scene and the autopsy on the Younker case, he said. 73

Still, McCarl said it will work to the Crown's favor if both he and Clary are still involved in the cases when they go to court. "Those are our gold cards when it comes to a prosecution." It's also helpful for the families, he said. "It's nice to have some continuity with the cop that was at the scene and found their daughters or sisters." The Sun contacted the families of Pipe and Olajide for this article, but they chose not to comment. McCarl said he continues to stay in contact with family members. "We call them, they don't call us. That makes me think that they must be satisfied in knowing that we haven't rolled over -- we never give up." After the RCMP realized McCauley wasn't their man, investigators on the Olajide, Pipe and Younker files began compiling long lists of other possible suspects, McCarl said. One of the theories is that the killer had either lived in the area, was a logger, fisherman or hunter familiar with the region, or perhaps had been incarcerated at one of the correctional facilities in the Fraser Valley and became familiar with the area while on a work-release program. McCarl said investigators hope to find a way to use computers to combine police, prison and parole records with lists of voters, hunters, fishermen and loggers in the region. "Anything electronic that we could get was going to get pulled and sorted. And then we would try and give it parameters and see whose name comes up the most frequently ... whoever comes up the most frequently gets targeted first. "And that's what we're looking at now, is basically creating a list of the best people to look at and going and finding them and trying to follow up with them." The problem is that a computer program has yet to be developed that could handle such massive amounts of information. RCMP Inspector Keith Davidson, a psychological profiler who helped develop the RCMP's computer system for tracking serial offenders, confirmed he is currently trying to find a way to use computers to assist in the investigations of the Valley murders and the missing women. McCarl also said the RCMP recently brought profilers from Ottawa and Winnipeg, to visit the Mission and Agassiz crime scenes. This was done to 74

"give a better idea of what type of person we should be looking for and make sure that we have covered off all the lists of possible suspects." McCarl said he's in regular contact with the missing women task force, which has been reviewing all sexual assaults, attempted murders and murders of women in the sex trade around the province. So far, the review has turned up a list of more than 600 potential suspects. "They're doing the complete review and then they'll see who they want to target," McCarl said. "And then they'll go out and find these people or then try and eliminate them or see whose name shows up most frequently. "It's a very methodical, well-considered plan to follow up on these investigations. I think it's going to work. But it's not a quick fix and it will take lots of time and they'll have to keep those people working on that file. "They're looking at two years and, in all likelihood it probably could be more like four. Once a potential suspect is identified, then that will be the focus of the investigation." McCarl rejected criticism that has been levelled at police -- particularly in Vancouver -- that they don't care about the murders and disappearances because the victims are marginalized women involved in drugs and the sex trade. "The cops cared on this file, and the guys that really care are the ones that are on this task force right now," he said. "There's not one person down there that I don't have 100 per cent respect for ... they are generally the best in their field and that's what you need." McCarl said police recently thought they had a good suspect in the Valley murders, and the force pulled out all the stops to find the best people to handle wiretap and undercover operations. "The best people for the jobs were all identified and contacted and willing to participate and I see that happening with the group of people they've got [on the task force]. Anything that they identify, it'll come to pass ... they're not going to roll over until they know who is responsible." Nor, he says, will he. "Six years down the road, we're still spinning wheels, saying, 'Whodunit?' he said. "But I feel confident that, eventually, it will be successfully concluded -- that we will find out who it was."

Chapter 11 [What the RCMP apparently cant fabricate, they apparently screw-up again?] Just because the RCMP didnt lay any charges in Warrant Officer Matt Stopfords poisoning doesnt mean much to the author! Apparently, what the RCMP cant fabricate in their investigations, as exemplified by these incidents, they screw up as cited in the next few chapters? Air India families wait 25 years for answers from RCMP: Prof. Gordon noted other examples of RCMP problems were highlighted in the report of the Air India inquiry, which criticized the Mounties for fighting turf wars with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service [CSIS] during the investigation into twin Air India bombings in 1985 that killed a total of 331 people.1 As cited, dozens of family members of the victims of the Air India bombing will soon mark the 25th anniversary of the explosion. A week before that day, a long-anticipated inquiry reports its findings.2 What? Twenty-five years for an investigation? Can anyone spell i-n-c-o-m-p-e-t-e-n-c-e? Has the RCMP waited 25 years so that the incompetent players have all retired with full pensions? Was that their game? While the families of the victims waited? And waited? Ane waited? All 329 passengers and crew on the Montreal-to-Delhi flight were killed. Fifteen years after the bombing, two men, Ripudaman Singh Malik and Bagri, were charged with 329 counts of first-degree murder.3 In 2005, a B.C. Supreme Court judge found Malik, a Vancouver businessman and Bagri, a Kamloops, B.C., mill worker, not guilty of firstdegree murder.4 76

John Major, a former Supreme Court justice, was appointed in May 2006 to investigate the bombing of Flight 182, which went down off the coast of Ireland.5 Major was appointed after family members of the Air India victims pressed for an inquiry into the failures before and after the explosion.6 The final report comprises more than 4,000 pages. More than 200 witnesses testified during the four-year-long inquiry.7 The only person successfully convicted in the Air India bombing was Inderjit Singh Reyat, who pleaded guilty in 2003 to manslaughter after admitting to making the bombs.8 Bal Gupta, whose wife Ramurthy was killed in the Air India bombing, said families of the victims have been waiting for answers for far too long.9 During the investigation, we were told to let the investigation proceed and we kept quiet during the trial, but after the acquittal of the two accused there was no reason not to have an inquiry. But we had a difficult time and had to push the government, said Gupta, an engineer from Toronto, who was the first to testify at the inquiry.10 As further noted, one of the most widely held assumptions about the bombing of Air India Flight 182 that departed Toronto on June 22, 1985 is that there was no specific advance warning of this threat of such an attack11 [see Appendix 7, cited below]. However, according to James Bartleman: "I can only tell you my experience. It will be of June 18, the week of the bombings which took place on the 23rd. I was going through the daily intercept package ... and I saw in there a document which indicated that Air India was being targeted that weekend. That would be the weekend of the 22nd and 23rd.12 "I knew that there was a meeting going on in the operations centre ... and so I took the document and I put it in a secure folder and I walked down to the meeting and I asked the senior RCMP officer present if I could speak to him privately . .. . I pulled out the document and I asked him if he had seen it and if he was taking action.13 "His reaction startled me. He flushed and told me that of course he had seen it and that he didn't need me to tell him how to do his job.14 Another arrogant RCMP freak out? 77

As James Bartleman continued: I then took it back and that was that. The next thing in my memory is the downing of the aircraft."15 Bartleman said it is seared into his memory.16 Who was this senior RCMP? Was he the weak link in preventing the Air India bombing tragedy? As noted, Bartleman's story yesterday was also shocking for the families who have conducted a long and often solitary vigil to unearth what they believe is the hidden truth behind the botched Air India investigations.17 It appears again that the RCMP apparently kept the truth of their incompetence under wraps? "We want(ed) to know the truth and now it more or less proves that this tragedy could have been prevented.18 "This was the largest mass murder in Canadian history," Mr Major said, delivering the investigation's final report.19 "A cascading series of errors contributed to the failure of our police and our security forces to prevent this atrocity... various institutions and organizations did not fulfill their responsibilities."20 He highlighted what he said were the poor relations between the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) ... error, incompetence, and inattention occurred21 Great, the Air India tragedy apparently occurred because of idiotic infighting between the RCMP and CSIS? Finally, the report also criticizes the Canadian government for claiming it has since fixed the security lapses.22 "The commission rejects that position," Mr Major said.23 Just great, nothing has been learned? Is everyone who flies still at risk of terrorist threats because of in-fighting between the RCMP and CSIS? What a bunch of crap!

Appendix 7 [RCMP warned on Air India] RCMP warned on Air India Allan Woods, Ottawa Bureau Published On Fri May 4 2007 OTTAWAFederal authorities were warned that an Air India flight would be the target of a terrorist's bomb less than one week before the flight went down in 1985, Ontario's lieutenant-governor testified yesterday. James Bartleman, a career diplomat and intelligence officer with the federal government, appears to have been sitting on a 22-year-old secret that has done more to justify the complaints of the families of Air India victims than a failed criminal investigation and previous probes. Bartleman's bombshell is the clearest allegation to date that the federal government and the RCMP had specific information about the terrorist bomb that took 329 lives when Flight 182 went down off the coast of Ireland on June 23, 1985. Air India had been considered a potential target for Canadian-based Sikh extremists for more than a year. But ever since the bombing, the government has insisted that police and security officers had no advance warning that any specific flight was in danger. The airline flew only one weekly flight between Canada and India at the time. Bartleman testified that as director general of intelligence and security with the Department of External Affairs, he came across an intelligence brief the week of June 18, 1985 that indicated the airline would be attacked on either June 22 or 23. He allowed that it was "raw, unevaluated information" and could easily have been lost amid what he said were 76 other intelligence assessments that had been written by the Canadian Security Intelligence Service in the year leading up to the attack. "On the surface it appears to be just another one of these, but I took it seriously," he testified, adding that he asked a senior RCMP officer, whose identity he cannot recall, if he was aware of the threat. "His reaction startled me. He flushed and told me that, of course he had seen it, and that he didn't need me to tell him how to do his job," Bartleman said. "I then took it back and that was that. The next thing in my memory is the downing of the aircraft." 80

Inderjit Singh Reyat was the only person ever convicted for actions related to the attack. He was found guilty in 1990 of two counts of manslaughter and four explosives charges related to the deaths of two baggage handlers in Tokyo. All other charges, including the murders of the 329 people aboard the Air India flight, were stayed. The suspected mastermind of the attack was Talwinder Singh Parmar, head of the militant sect Babbar Khalsa that campaigned for a Sikh homeland in northern India. He was shot dead by police in India in 1992. Bartleman recalled that he and his family were getting ready to leave the house the morning of June 23 when he received a telephone call with news of the terrorist attack. It is seared into his memory, just like the assassination of John F. Kennedy and the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, he said. "Many other things have faded ... but there are certain events in a person's life that you just never forget," Bartleman said. "I know what I saw and I know what happened in that period." He said he did not come forward during the criminal trial of Ripudaman Singh Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri because he assumed the RCMP was aware of the intelligence information and would conduct the appropriate investigations. Malik and Bagri were charged in 2000 with the first-degree murder of those aboard Flight 182. Their trial, which began in 2003, ended in March 2005 when the pair were acquitted on all counts. Only when former Ontario premier Bob Rae recommended to the federal government in November 2005 that a full-scale public inquiry be called did Bartleman think about coming forward with his aging secret. He finally did so while walking his dog in a Toronto park one day recently when he came across Mark Freiman, the Air India inquiry's lead counsel. Freiman said federal justice officials have conducted interviews and inquiries to try to verify Bartleman's allegations, but have been unable to find any documentation or RCMP officials to back up his version of events.

81

Bartleman's story yesterday was also shocking for the families who have conducted a long and often solitary vigil to unearth what they believe is the hidden truth behind the botched Air India investigations. Bal Gupta, who lost his wife in the bombing, watched Bartleman's testimony live on his computer from his home in Etobicoke. He said there have been "rumours" of specific and advance warnings of the attack, but he never expected the "direct indications" that he and other families received yesterday. "We want to know the truth and now it more or less proves that this tragedy could have been prevented. We may be jumping to conclusions, mind you, but that has always been our suspicion and we have said it again and again." Contacted by the Star yesterday, Rae refused to comment specifically on Bartleman's testimony but he said it was, in part, his "concerns about warnings and the lack of effective communication" that prompted him to recommend the inquiry be struck. The startling new allegations also raised fresh concerns on Parliament Hill. Vancouver Liberal MP Ujjal Dosanjh, a former British Columbia premier, said the fact that the RCMP appear to have ignored a clear warning is evidence that racism was at the root of the decision not to take swift action. "I generally believe if you had 329 white Anglo-Saxons killed in an Air India disaster you would have had an inquiry in no time and you would have been following the crime more seriously," Dosanjh said. "I've never spoken so harshly before but that's the truth. ... I am shocked that that kind of specific warning would be ignored." Charges of racism have long been at the heart of the grievances over the Canadian government's actions and reactions toward the disaster. It is unclear what further actions will result from Bartleman's allegations, though he is scheduled to provide further testimony about what he knows in a closed-door session in order to better handle sensitive national security information.

Chapter 12 [What the RCMP apparently cant fabricate, they apparently screw-up again?] Just because the RCMP didnt lay any charges in Warrant Officer Matt Stopfords poisoning doesnt mean much to the author! Apparently, what the RCMP cant fabricate in their investigations, as exemplified by these incidents, they screw up as cited in the next few chapters? It's about how the RCMP bungled the case of notorious serial killer Clifford Olson: As cited, Nick has the lead role in this Canadian TV movie, set to film in Calgary and air on CTV sometime during the 2001-2002 season. A British co-production based on the book Where Shadows Linger1, it's about how the RCMP bungled the case of notorious serial killer Clifford Olson [see Appendix 8, cited below]. As further cited, RCMP Superintendent Bruce Northorp was the office in charge of the Olson hunt at the time of his arrest in 1981. His full review of the case clearly shows that the RCMP investigation of the Olson affair was plagued by its own internal problems and personalities. As cited, Clifford Robert Olson Jr. was born on January 1st, 1940 at St. Pauls Hospital, Vancouver, B.C. In his teenage years, he did crimes like B&E's, robberies, theft, etc.2 [see Appendix 9, cited below]. While in B.C. Pen in 1974, sexually attacked a 17-year-old fellow inmate. After being released he indecently assaulted a 7-year-old girl in Nova Scotia. This was the beginning of his sexually deviant and murderous criminal activity.3 During those seven years Olsons prison style changed. To some he was known as Bobo, a man who viciously muscled or buggered young inmates. To others he became knows as The Senator. This was because he honed his cell-room lawyers skills, by writing incessantly to both federal and provincial politicians with a barrage of complaints about prison conditions. He was also a `stoolie, a person who would inform on anyone for any reason. This trait made him unpopular with both inmates and guards and he eventually needed protective custody.4 Olson was moved to the Super Maximum Unit (SMU), commonly known as the Penthouse, the rat and rapo unit, where the most despised cons were housed. It was here that he met accused child-killer Gary Francis Marcoux.5 83

A serial killer was on the loose and the people in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley region of British Columbia were gripped with fear. In the short time span, from November 1980 to July 1981, a number of children had gone missing, and were later found dead.6 Parents in suburban Vancouver complained that the police were not treating reports of the missing youths seriously enough.7 The apparent rationale given, the 200 Mounties [RCMP] in the Surrey detachment processed roughly 2000 missing-person cases and investigated some 18,000 criminal code offenses in those two years. Many of the juveniles turned out to be runaways, congregating on the Granville Street area downtown, while some stayed with friends or out partying past their curfew, without informing their parents. The police figured, Theyd turn up -- and for the most part they did.8 The only problem with this RCMP explanation was that the missing children were mere toddlers? Incredibly, it took the disappearance of nine year old Simon Partington that was the turning point in The Case of the Missing Lower Mainland Children. The RCMP could hardly list him as a runaway, given his young age and angelic-looking face. Police were sure that the slight, 4-foot-2inch, 80-pound boy had been abducted9 [see Appendix 10, cited below]. By the time Clifford Olsons murderous spree was over, Olson had killed 10 children in southern British Columbia and, by the time he was finished, 11 would be dead. It was not the largest body count in the occurrence of multiple murders in Canada --- the Olson murders caused the greatest terror and horror.10 Footnotes 1.

Appendix 8 [It's about how the RCMP bungled the case of notorious serial killer Clifford Olson] Where Shadows Linger Nick has the lead role in this Canadian TV movie, set to film in Calgary and air on CTV sometime during the 2001-2002 season. A British coproduction based on the book Where Shadows Linger, it's about how the RCMP bungled the case of notorious serial killer Clifford Olson. (The movie is about the investigation, not really about Olson; you don't even see Olson's face until the very end.) Nick plays Les Forsythe, a character based on Les Holmes, the exMountie who wrote a book revealing the tragic errors that let Olson kill several more victims before being arrested. The movie is likely to prove controversial, since it pulls some skeletons out of the RCMP closet. It will air sometime in 2002. Where Shadows Linger Press Release Les Holmes knew it would not be easy, but he was determined to bring closure to an event that had scarred so many. As this respected ex-Mountie dug into the records of Canada's most horrifying serial killer case to date, he found that shadows still lingered. The culmination of the author's research came when he interviewed an ex-RCMP member who had fingered Olson weeks before his arrest but whose discovery slipped between the cracks of jurisdiction. Five more teenagers died in the meantime. RCMP Superintendent Bruce Northorp was the office in charge of the Olson hunt at the time of his arrest in 1981. He kept quiet both during and after the horrific affair out of respect for the mourning parents and because of suspicions about the media's hidden agendas. He knew that one day he would have to set the record straight, and in this book he finally speaks out. His full review of the case clearly shows that the RCMP investigation of the Olson affair was plagued by its own internal problems and personalities. Also see: Jurisdictional mishmash hindering B.C. police forces By Lindsay Kines, Katie DeRosa and Jack Knox, Victoria Times Colonist September 22, 2010 VICTORIA Thirty years ago, Clifford Olson began his killing frenzy of 11 children in British Columbia's Lower Mainland.

85

Oblivious to police boundaries that criss-cross the Vancouver area, he roamed the region in search of young victims, raping, murdering and disposing of bodies from Agassiz to Whistler. Police, at times unaware of what their counterparts were doing in other detachments and departments, were slow to link the disappearances before eventually arresting him in 1981. The B.C. government resisted calls for a public inquiry and police and politicians vowed to do better in the future. Today, the policing map in the Lower Mainland and across B.C. looks much as it did during Olson's rampage. Multiple agencies still patrol metropolitan areas in the Vancouver and Victoria areas, jurisdictional barriers still thwart effective communication and the tragedies continue to mount. In September 2007, Peter Lee stabbed to death his six-year-old son Christian, his wife Sunny Park, and her parents Kum Lea Chun and Moon Kyu Park before taking his own life in the leafy Victoria enclave of Oak Bay. It was later revealed that in the weeks prior to the massacre, Park bounced among three police departments while trying to get help for spousal abuse. On the night of the murders, the grandmother's 911 call was handled by a maze of dispatchers, while dozens of police officers from Victoria, Saanich and Oak Bay responded to the call. Then, last month, the Vancouver Police Department released its Missing Women Investigation Review, which concluded that police likely could have caught serial killer Robert Pickton years earlier. In findings eerily reminiscent of the Olson case, Deputy Chief Doug LePard blamed jurisdictional barriers, poor management and shoddy analysis of information. One of the main problems was conflicting priorities. Vancouver police were under pressure to solve the case, but it was less of a priority for the Coquitlam RCMP, in whose jurisdiction Pickton resided. As a result, the detachment allowed the file to languish for months, LePard said. Now, growing numbers of current and retired police officers, criminologists and politicians say it's time for B.C. to put public safety ahead of politics and establish regional forces in major metropolitan areas. Former solicitor general Kash Heed, a former chief of the West Vancouver department, said it would be impossible "to find a more disturbing example anywhere in the world" than the investigative failures in the 86

Pickton case. But he warned that similar problems will keep happening unless something gets done. "The RCMP have bosses that are beholden ... to Ottawa," he said. "You have municipal bosses that have their own little kingdoms. Albeit, I was one of them and you're only concerned about your area ... You only care, really, what happens within the boundaries of your jurisdiction." On the Lower Mainland alone, there are at least 15 RCMP and municipal police jurisdictions delivering service to two million people. In Greater Victoria, four municipal departments, three RCMP detachments and three 911 dispatch centres serve just 350,000 people. By contrast, Toronto's 2.6 million population is policed by a single force, as are all other major metropolitan areas in Canada. "It mystifies me," former Ottawa police chief Vince Bevan said of B.C.'s balkanized system. "It's beyond me how they can have these series of smaller departments, and think that they're meeting standards." The B.C. government and some police leaders counter that much has changed since the days of Olson, and even Pickton. They cite, in particular, the creation of integrated units that draw officers from different police agencies in a region to tackle a particular crime or problem, such as homicides, domestic abuse, traffic enforcement or gang violence. Clayton Pecknold, president of the B.C. Association of Police Chiefs, said the integrated units have "eliminated borders" between police departments. "It's now subject-matter based as opposed to based on a geographical area," said Pecknold, who is deputy chief of Central Saanich police. "That's why the border doesn't matter anymore." But critics say the integrated units only highlight the problems. With so many chiefs trying to find consensus on key crime-fighting issues, the units often take months to establish. They add more layers of bureaucracy, and attempt to blend the different RCMP and municipal cultures sometimes with mixed results. Saanich police Chief Mike Chadwick, a 35-year veteran of the force and a staunch defender of the status quo, argues that individual municipalities have the right to "direct the level of service ... from their police department" and that municipal taxpayers should have a say on the type policing they want.

87

"I'm not so sure if you had a regional department that would be the case," he said. "In Saanich, people pay for a service that we have provided for over 100 years now and they come to expect that. "Saanich taxpayers don't expect to pay for what goes on downtown." But Victoria police Chief Jamie Graham, a strong proponent of police regionalization, thought the jurisdictional confusion around the Oak Bay murder-suicide would be the impetus needed to force regionalization on the Lower Island. Graham, who also served as chief of the Vancouver police, said it simply makes sense to have a regional force chasing and apprehending criminals that don't respect political boundaries. "This isn't about cost," he said. "This is about the ability to deploy more effectively." He said Victoria police continue to be crushed under the weight of policing a downtown core which is the destination of club-hoppers, concert or festival goers and of course, criminals, many of whom live in the surrounding municipalities. The department's 241 officers have the highest case load among municipal police officers in the region and Graham said he would have to hire 60 officers to reach the provincial standard. Graham noted that, under a regional model, a single chief would have the ability to deploy resources where they are needed most. If there were a brawl downtown or a major crime in Oak Bay, police officers, including those with specialized training, would be able to flood the area and control the situation.

Appendix 9 [Clifford Olson - Murderer and Serial Killer] Clifford Olson - Murderer and Serial Killer Clifford Olson Clifford Robert Olson Jr. was born on January 1st, 1940 at St. Pauls Hospital, Vancouver, B.C. In his teenage years, he did crimes like B&E's, robberies, theft, etc. While in B.C. Pen in 1974, sexually attacked a 17-year-old fellow inmate. After being released he indecently assaulted a 7-year-old girl in Nova Scotia. This was the beginning of his sexually deviant and murderous criminal activity.

Olson was moved to the Super Maximum Unit (SMU), commonly known as the Penthouse, the rat and rapo unit, where the most despised cons were housed. It was here that he met accused child-killer Gary Francis Marcoux Olson was arrested for impaired driving and for contributing to juvenile delinquency. He crashed his car with his 16-year-old female passenger in Agassiz, a farming hamlet in the Valley about an hour from Vancouver. Olson had picked her up in the Cottonwood Avenue and North Road area of Coquitlam, Daryn Johnsrude and Olsons neighborhood Although the young girl could not be convinced that Olson was a sex offender, she did tell the police that he had offered her a job, had bought her drinks and given her pills. She palmed one of the tiny emerald knockout pills, later giving it to the police. The laboratory identified it as chloral hydrate, commonly known as knock-out drops or a Mickey Finn A serial killer was on the loose and the people in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley region of British Columbia were gripped with fear. In the short time span, from November 1980 to July 1981, a number of children had gone missing, and were later found dead. Parents in suburban Vancouver complained that the police were not treating reports of the missing youths seriously enough. The 200 Mounties in the Surrey detachment processed roughly 2000 missing-person cases and investigated 89

some 18,000 criminal code offenses in those two years. Many of the juveniles turned out to be runaways, congregating on the Granville Street area downtown, while some stayed with friends or out partying past their curfew, without informing their parents. The police figured, Theyd turn up -- and for the most part they did. Under surveillance, Olson was not easy to follow. The watchers claimed that he would stop in the middle of the street, make sudden inexplicable U-turns, and go down one-way alleys, stop, and reverse. He also had a habit of continually changing rental cars: a Pinto, a Mustang, a Bobcat, a Lynx, a Honda, a panel truck, a Citation, an Escort, an Omega, and an Acadian. Olson drove incessantly. At one point, he traveled over 20,000 kilometers in three months in 14 different rental cars. In mid-July he drove an Escort 5,569 kilometers in just two weeks. Olson took the ferry over to the Vancouver Island and, after burglarizing two Victoria residences, made his way up north towards Nanaimo, an old coal-mining town. He pulled over to the side of the road to pick up two young women hitchhiking. Hitchhiking was a popular mode of travel for the young in 1981. Roughly three hours later, writes Ian Mulgrew in Final Payoff, the car was weaving across the highway on the other, sparsely populated side of the massive island. Occasionally, it hit the soft shoulder. At the bottom of Hydro Hill, just before the turn-off for Long Beach, the car slowed. It turned onto a dirt-logging road, kicking up a cloud of dust and gravel. Moments later, two local RCMP squad cars pulled to a stop across the entrance to the road, blocking the cars retreat and disgorging the uniformed Mounties. They had been summoned by the helicopter crew. Two police officers followed the cars path, picking their way through the Douglas fir and spruce that lined either side of the isolated track. In the distance, they could see three people standing outside the car passing a bottle, and they could hear Olson. They moved closer. He was telling one of the women to take a walk. He began to yell. The police decided it was time to move. Olson spotted the police emerging from the undergrowth and sprinted back to the car. He threw the vehicle into gear and roared back the way he had come, but he was arrested at the roadblock. The women were confused, but safe. Olson said they had only stopped so he could relieve himself. Police charged him with impaired and dangerous driving, impounded his car, and took him to local lock-up. The police searched his rented car and 90

found a green address book with the name of the 14-year-old New Westminster girlJudy Kozma. By now, Olson had killed 10 children in southern British Columbia and, by the time he was finished, 11 would be dead. It was not the largest body count in the occurrence of multiple murders in Canada --- in 1949, all 23 passengers aboard a Dakota were killed by Montreal jeweler Joseph Guay, for the sole purpose of killing his wife --- but the Olson murders caused the greatest terror and horror. When he was arrested, only three bodies had been discovered and identified. The police did not yet know how many children had been murdered. August 6, 1981 The 6th was a momentous day, Northorp declared. It was the beginning of the events that have probably taken Olson off the streets of Canada for the rest of his life. It was also the beginning of several days of methodical police work. The surveillance team went into high gear. August 7 to 11, 1981 Solving a murder usually boils down to a lucky break. Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper, was arrested by two vice cops concerned about license plates. He was driving a car with stolen plates, was arrested, and later confessed to 13 murders --this after some 250 detectives had been deployed and almost $8 million dollars had been spent on the investigation. There was also evidence that Sutcliffe had been questioned nine times by the English police and was even arrested once with his hammer, his favorite weapon, but somehow happened to escape detection. The extensive national coverage of the missing children was likened by some members of the media to the Yorkshire Ripper case in Great Britain and the Atlanta child killings. U.S. Human Resources Minister Grace McCarthy claimed: We have our own little Atlanta going on. I feel the police, in total, did a tremendous job, Northrop concluded. All you have to do is compare the length of time it took the police in other jurisdictions to solve their serial killings. Twenty-nine blacks, twenty-seven male and two female, ranging in age from seven to twentyeight years, were murdered in Atlanta, Georgia, from July 1979 until May 1981. In 1981 only two of the cases were close to being cleared when Wayne Williams was indicted for the two latest murders, both of adults.

91

Also in both jurisdictions all of the victims bodies had been found. Not so in the Olson case, eliminating the chance of securing leads or even knowing if one person was responsible. The fact that known and suspected victims were both male and female, said Northorp, was in itself most unusual and further complicated matters, ignoring the fact that the Atlanta child murders also involved victims of both sexes and a wide range of ages, including young adults. We didnt interview Olson until his arrest on the 12th of August, said Maile, because we didnt have anything. August 12, 1981 I had no idea this would be the day when the big break would come, declared Northorp, nor did Olson have any idea this would be his last day as a free man. The decision was made to arrest Olson on Vancouver Island, then commence intensive interrogation. August 18, 1981 Olson was charged with the first-degree murder of Judy Kozma, which ultimately resulted in a full confession. August 21, 1981 Supt. Bruce Northorp had been heading the task force for three weeks with no real guidelines to follow. He had to assemble some 150 officers who were at that time working the case, digest all the information accumulated before he took the assignment, plan strategy, deal with the media, and a myriad of other details. He was shocked at the turn of events. At 8:35 a.m. I got a real jolt, said Northorp. I learned for the first time of the $100,000 deal put forward by Olson. The Cash-for-bodies Deal Ill give you eleven bodies for $100,000. The first one will be a freebie, Olson offered the police. I felt the intense pressure over the ensuing hours, said Northorp. We were so close [to breaking the case]. But could Olson really be so stupid as to enter into an agreement that would likely result in his spending the balance of his days in prison? Still, there was no concrete evidence that the missing children and the murders were related. The bodies of Weller, Johnsrude, King, and Kozma had been recovered. Olson proposed a schedule to recover the missing bodies of the dead 92

children, one at a time, in a specific order and then money would be placed in an account: Chartrand at Whistler Daignault at Surrey Carson at Chilliwack Four locations where evidence would be found Court at Agassiz Wolfsteiner at Chilliwack Partington at Richmond German girl at an unspecified location Youll get statements with the bodies, said Olson. Ill give you all the evidence, the things only the killer would know. As Olson led police to further bodies, Northop said in his co-authored book Where Shadows Linger, I was convinced Olsons admission to two more murders was merely a ploy, bearing in mind his many escapes from custody, tight security was laid on. Olson was to be taken in a car with three unarmed police officers, with one handcuffed to him. The car was to be escorted by two other cars, with two officers in each, armed with revolvers, rifles, and shotguns. District Two was alerted that Olson might be taken their way, and I arranged for the use of a police aircraft. If escape was on his mind, he would not succeed. In the year 2000, in a Vancouver Sun article called Ex-Mounties Deny Olson Case was Botched, two retired RCMP officers, Fred Maile and Ed Drozda, among other disclaimers, said there is no truth to allegations in Where Shadows Linger: The Untold Story of the RCMPs Olson Murders Investigation, that flaws in the investigation may have allowed Olson to claim seven more victims before he was finally caught. Drozda said, Hindsight plays such a large part. It is so wonderful with all the information before you to say, `Oh wow, look at this. At the time you are putting together a puzzle and these pieces somewhere along the way have to fit. Its not only surfacing someone who is a suspect but also in putting the evidence together to take it to court and get a conviction. Mailes boss, Staff Sergeant Arnie Nylund, commented in Where Shadows Linger, Fred seemed to know what he was doing, and I had never seen anything to indicate otherwise. It is easy to view these things in hindsight and draw conclusions. We had other suspects that looked better than Olson. Dont forget, it was not apparent a serial killer was on the loose. Up until then the guys were busy working on a number of other homicides not related to these cases at all. After Olson was in jail we had all kinds of second-guessers. We did the best we could with what we had. I have nothing but respect for the guys and how they did it. It was terrible, 93

just terrible for those members who accompanied Olson when they were recovering those bodies. It was so bad I had to send one man home. He just couldnt take it anymore. Its not an investigation you like to talk about too much because of the nature of what he was doing. I mean he was killing children, Maile told the Vancouver Sun. To me, if there was ever an image of the devil, it was Clifford Olson. The Deal Exposed The secret deal had been cut in 1981, but was exposed to the media a year later. Olson Was Paid to Locate Bodies was just one of the bold front-page headlines on January 14, 1982 in the Vancouver Sun. On January 15th the Sun headline read: Olson Deal Greeted by Disgust. The police had not disclosed the cash deal for fear of prejudicing Olsons right to a fair trial. At some point the Attorney General of British Columbia, the federal Solicitor General, the Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner of the RCMP in Ottawa, as well as the Prime Minister of Canada would be drawn into the controversy. Many thought it repugnant that Olson was profiting from his crimes. I found it unthinkable he should be paid to provide evidence, said Supt. Bruce Northorp, the head of the task force. The proposition to pay Olsons wife was simply splitting hairs. She was not separated from him, and Olson stood to gain even if monies were paid to his wife. The situation may have been different if she were separated and were supplying information as to past criminal activity. That was not the case. Northorp had to admit though that he felt a tremendous sense of relief that the killings were solved and no more children would die. When asked what evidence had been found, Northorp replied, I wont go into detail. Essentially, they were items, which could be established as belonging to each of the four victims, whose bodies had been found without Olsons assistance, thus establishing he was the killer. Only the killer would have knowledge of where these articles had been hidden. The Attorney General of British Columbia, Allan Williams, also wondered how such an appalling deal had been made. Yet the good news was, in exchange for $100,000, the Attorney General could guarantee a firstdegree murder conviction, ease the anxiety of the parents of the missing children, subdue the terror in British Columbia, and end an expensive police investigation. There was no hard evidence and Olson, an experienced criminal, was unlikely to talk without it. The day before 94

Clifford Olson was charged with the death of Judy Kozma, he had a twohour visit with his wife Joan and their infant son. I could not stop crying during those two hours, wrote Olson in a letter February 5th, 1982, to Genevieve Westcott, a CBC television reporter in Vancouver, as to why he pleaded guilty. I told my wife that I was responsible for the deaths of the children and that I could not live with myself nor have any peace of mind until I confess to what I had done and give back the bodies to their families for a proper Christian burial. My wife told me that if I told police (R.C.M.P.) what I did, they would lock me up in jail for the rest of my life and I would in all probability be killed in jail. She said what would she tell our son when he grew up and everyone was teasing him at school for what his father had done. I told her it will be up to me to tell my son what has happened. I knew in my heart that I must give up my wife and son for the rest of my life. . My son will have to [sic] father to call Daddy and he will grow up knowing his father for the sins he has done. And my wife will always bear my mistake for the rest of her life. She told me that I must do what is right and that she will always love me and that someday we would be n [sic] heaven together praising the Lord together. Olson may have been trying to bolster his own image because he also was heard to say: If I gave a shit about the parents I wouldnt have killed the kid. Thursday, July 30, 1981 Meanwhile Const. Fred Maile of the RCMP Serious Crimes Unit had a simple strategy. His idea was to surreptitiously tape a conversation with Olson insinuating some kind of a reward. The idea was, if Olson was the murderer, and he thought he could make some money from that fact, he might go back to the crime scenes in order to retrieve some physical evidence. If he was not the murderer or knew who the murderer was then maybe he would tell them. Olson met Detective Tarr at a White Spot Restaurant, and then was joined by RCMPs Corporal Maile and Corporal Drozda. The hidden microphones transmitted the conversation to a Mountie in a car in the parking lot. Final Payoff describes this tense 30 minutes: Quite a few homicides around here, right? Maile began. And we understand that you might be able to help us. Were prepared to compensate you for whatever youre able to tell us or help us. But we have to know if you are able to help us. 95

He stopped and blew on his coffee. All eyes were on Olson. For a while he said nothing. Finally, Olson said he wanted to be hired at a salary of $3,000 a month. In exchange, he claimed he would provide information about the disappearances. Olsons eyes lit up at the idea that they were coming to him for information. He spent much of the time bragging about testifying in Marcouxs conviction of that Jeannie, promising to get back to them if he found out anything. With a casual, Well, Ill get back to you if I find out anything, the officers watched the killer leave the restaurant and amble out into the sunshine. No one followed the man suspected of murdering several children.

Appendix 10 [The RCMP could hardly list him as a runaway] Clifford Olson Victims Victims of Clifford Olson Colleen Daignault Colleen Daignault wouldnt talk to just anybody, shy as she was. A shade over 5 feet, the 13-year-old girl, with her lovely long brown hair and fresh face, smiled sweetly in her missing persons photo. One of the Victims of Clifford Olson Daryn Johnsrude Wednesday, April 22, 1981 -- Daryn Todd Johnsrude He had been in Vancouver for only two days. Clifford Olson Victims like Daryn Johnsrude, should not have happen. Sandra Lynn Wolfsteiner Tuesday, May 19, 1981 -- Sandra Lynn Wolfsteiner Olson murdered 16-year-old Sandra Wolfsteiner just 4 days after his wedding. Her boyfriends mother saw her get into a car with a man. Olson took Sandy to the bush just off Chilliwack Lake Road. Olson attacked and killed her by striking her in the head. Ada Court 5th Sunday, June 21, 1981 Ada Court Ada Court, victim Thirteen-year-old Ada Court of Burnaby babysitting at her brother and sister-in-laws Coquitlam apartment, the same family apartment complex where the Olsons lived and where Olson Sr. and Leona worked as caretakers. Sunday morning, Ada caught a bus to meet her boyfriend. Then, she simply vanished. Fifty-two-year-old Jim Parranto, a White Rock resident, believed he saw Olson disposing of Adas body. Simon Partington 6th Thursday, July 2, 1981 Simon Partington Simon Partington, victim It was the disappearance of a nine-year-old Surrey boy, Simon Partington that was the turning point in The Case of the Missing Lower Mainland Children. The police could hardly list him as a runaway, given his young age and angelic-looking face. Police were sure that the slight, 4-foot-2inch, 80-pound boy had been abducted. Also cited in: Clifford Olson Clifford Robert Olson, Jr (born January 1, 1940 in Vancouver, British Columbia) is a convicted Canadian serial killer who confessed to murdering two children and nine youths in the early 1980s.[1] 97

Murders On November 17, 1980, 12-year-old Christine Weller of Surrey, British Columbia was abducted.[2] She was found on Christmas Day, after having been strangled with a belt and stabbed repeatedly. On April 16, 1981, Colleen Marian Daignault, 13, vanished. It was five months before her body was found. By then, Daryn Todd Johnsrude, 16, had also been abducted and killed; 16-year-old Sandra Wolfsteiner was murdered on May 19 and 13-year-old Ada Court in April. Six victims followed in quick succession in July 1981. Simon Partington, 9, was abducted, raped and strangled on the second day of the month. Judy Kozma, a 14-year old from New Westminster, was raped and strangled a week later. Her body was discovered on July 25 near Weaver Lake.[3] The next victims were: Raymond King Jr., 15, abducted on July 23, raped and bludgeoned to death; Sigrun Arnd, an 18-year old German tourist, raped and bludgeoned the following day; Terri Lyn Carson, 15, raped and strangled; Louise Chartrand, age 17, the last victim identified, died on July 30. Olson was an atypical serial killer in that he targeted both boys and girls. His victims were also of various ages. Arrest and plea bargain Olson, who had an extensive criminal history,[4] was arrested on August 12, 1981 on suspicion of attempts to abduct two girls.[2] By August 25, Olson had been charged with the murder of Judy Kozma.[3] He reached a controversial deal with authorities, agreeing to confess to the 11 murders and show police where the bodies of those not recovered were buried, in return for which he wanted $10,000 paid to his wife for each victim. His wife received $100,000 after Olson cooperated with police.[4] In January 1982, Olson pleaded guilty to 11 counts of murder and was given 11 concurrent life sentences to be served in Canada's super-maximum security Special Handling Unit in Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines, Quebec, which houses many of the country's most dangerous criminals.[1] Olson is a dangerous offender, meaning he is very unlikely to ever be released from prison.

Now we have set the frame work for this story! Weve looked at a monster, Col. Russell Williams, with the Canadian Military and with guys like this in the Canadian Military they are capable of anything even poisoning a kid! Oh, how about that? Talking about poisoning in the Military, weve also looked at the poisoning of a hero, Warrant Officer Matt Stopford, by his own frigging men? What would it take for some of these same kinds of people poisoning some kid to help the RCMP pay him back for the father successfully suing the RCMP? Not much at all?

Chapter 14 [Lets look at the kid in question?] Apparently the kid was poisoned, and left on the side of the road to fend for himself, just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11, cited below]. Weve already see General W.Z. Natynczyk1 apparent fabrications(s) / lies in another case.2 In this case, as a young male Canadian Forces member, he became sick with some unknown ailment and instead of doing anything for him, the Canadian Military left him on the side of the road and didnt give him a second thought? He was treated like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11]. Remember him? Warrant Officer Matt Stopford was decorated for leadership in Croatia, but the army failed to tell him they'd discovered his own men found him too gung-ho and were poisoning his coffee.3 When Stopford -- blind in one eye and crippled with internal injuries -- sought to learn the names of those who poisoned him, the army refused on grounds of respecting the privacy of the perpetrators.4 What buggars? As further cited: Nearly 10 years later, the Minister of Defense sent Stopford to the Mayo Clinic which reported they'd delayed too long for a cure.5 After 17 years as a soldier, Stopford, at age 34, was cast aside with life-altering internal afflictions.6 One has to ask: What kind of swine work for the Canadian Forces? Incredibly, in our case, this young male Canadian Forces member when he got better and wanted to re-join the Canadian Forces, they didnt hire him or even process his application contrary to Canadian Human Rights Commission discriminatory practices? What did the Canadian Human Rights Commission do for him? You guessed it, absolutely nothing! Who was this young male Canadian Forces member? 102

You guessed it, he was the son of the father from Sections I and II of this book. And, this is not the first time the Canadian Human Rights Commission has screwed with this father7, and now his son. Human rights in Canada? No such thing. The people working for the Canadian Human Rights Commission are simple liars too, according to the father and quite content to help the RCMP out? After all, the RCMP were quite content to harass the father, and now were doing the same to his children.8 So, lets screw with this fathers son, lets poison him? One can only assume this may be a possibility because the Canadian Forces never explained what the fathers son had contracted at Boot Camp so any supposition is possible? Canadian Forces simply left him by the side of the road and forgot him, very much like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11]. And, as far as he father is concerned, that was the RCMP game-plan in harassing him, because his father had successfully sued them.9 In fact, a new book highlights the extent of RCMP behaviour.10 Footnotes 1.

Appendix 11 [He had, in fact, been poisoned] The author should note, the kids father used to see this poor guy when he lived in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. Article: Reward for gallantry; Canadian soldiers receive a slap on the wrist for seriously poisoning an overzealous officer. Article from: The Report Newsmagazine Article date: September 10, 2001 Author: Schuster, Eli Before he served as a Canadian Forces peacekeeper in Croatia in 1993, Matt Stopford had a common-law wife and two children; today, the former warrant officer lives alone on a full army pension. Days go by when he cannot find the energy even to lift himself out of bed. He is losing his teeth, and a bowel disorder causes anal bleeding. At times, his one good eye throbs so painfully he must lie down in a darkened room, inject himself with cortisone and hope the retina does not explode as his other one did. After years of telling Mr. Stopford it was not to blame for his illness, the Defense Department released a letter last year claiming he had, in fact, been poisoned

105

Chapter 15 [Canadian Forces send this young male Canadian Forces member home with no information] Apparently the kid was poisoned, and left on the side of the road to fend for himself, just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11, cited above]. Weve already see General W.Z. Natynczyk1 apparent fabrication(s) / lies in another case.2 On one of the 2.4 km runs on 5 July, 2006, this young male Canadian Forces member had trouble breathing, and was sent to the Shilo medical unit where he was prescribed prednisone. A rural diagnostic service found this young male Canadian Forces members lungs to be clear on the same day. The next day 6 July, 2006 this young male Canadian Forces member was seen at the Shilo medical clinic again where it was recorded that he felt dizzy and feels off balance [see Appendix 12, cited below]. The next day 7 July, 2006 this young male Canadian Forces member was seen at the Shilo medical clinic again where it was recorded that he felt better and did pt this am, running around gym, doing push-ups and situps, and that he looked well [see Appendix 13, cited below]. On 12 July, 2006 it was recorded in the Shilo medical clinic log, this young male Canadian Forces member was still taking prednisone for asthma / bronchitis? [see Appendix 14, cited below]. Also recorded on the same day, this young male Canadian Forces member vomited this morning [see Appendix 15, cited below]. Also recorded on the same day, this young male Canadian Forces members ketone reading was 160/16 and ph at 5. As noted, energetic exercise can also make ketone levels rise when all the glucose has been used up? Well, this young male Canadian Forces member was at boot camp [BMQ], and possibly the tough physical exertion had caused high ketone levels? Also recorded on the same day, this young male Canadian Forces members ketone reading was large and ph at 6.

106

Also recorded on the same day, this young male Canadian Forces members hematology readings showed high levels, WBC (A high WBC count often means that an infection is present in the body), NEUTS (Neutrophil granulocytes, more commonly known as neutrophils, are the most common type of white blood cells found in human beings. They are an essential part of the immune system. They are also the first immune cells that reach the site of infection through a process known as chemotaxis), and MONOS (Monocyte is a type of white blood cell, part of the human body's immune system. Monocytes can move quickly (approx. 8-12 hours) to sites of infection. A high count is found in severe infection)? Again, quite simply, he wasnt supposed to succeed at Boot Camp? Could it be the Department of National Defence had been informed by the RCMP whose son they had in their unit the son of the father who successfully sued them - and they surely werent going to let him get ahead in that unit? So, lets screw with this fathers son, was he poisoned just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford because the father successfully sued the RCMP [see Appendix 16, cited below]? On 13 July, 2006 it was recorded in the Emergency ward of Brandon Regional Health Centre [Hospital] that this young male Canadian Forces member had been admitted because he had pain on the left side of his abdomen. A radiological exam of this young male Canadian Forces members abdomen showed nothing amiss. A urine analysis indicated nothing amiss. A routine chemistry showed that this young male Canadian Forces members CREATINE KINASE (An abnormally high level of creatine kinase reflected in the blood test is indicative of a detriment to any organ of the body, especially the ones related to muscles and brain) was high and his ALT (High levels of ALT are usually due to a virus infection) was high. It appeared that a special chemistry reading for CKMB MASS of 21.0 was high? As cited, new assays for early markers such as myoglobin, troponin T, and creatine kinase isoenzyme MB mass (CK-MBmass) are highly sensitive for the diagnosis of AMI (acute myocardial infarction).3 107

Did this mean that this young male Canadian Forces member was being monitored for a potential heart attack? On 14 July, 2006 hematology found normal ranges for this young male Canadian Forces member. However, a routine chemistry found his UREA low. The next medical document this young male Canadian Forces member received through access to information from his Canadian Forces file is an emergency re-admission to the Brandon Regional Health Centre [Hospital] on 17 July, 2006 where it was recorded the reason for admission abdominal pain lower upper quadrant, vomiting, diarrhea. The next item this young male Canadian Forces member received through access to information from his Canadian Forces file is a doctors progress sheet that shows his CK (Creatine kinase) apparently down, his ALT (Alanine aminotransferase blood test is typically used to detect liver injury) apparently down, his AST (Aspartate aminotransferase) at 53 and that a summary is being sent to his GP (general practitioner). This young male Canadian Forces member was sent home from Shilo by the Canadian Forces with the attached document for his family doctor [see Appendix 17, cited below]. As Appendix 17 reveals, it was simply a copy of this young male Canadian Forces members routine chemistry on 14 July, 2006 which revealed high CHLORIDE (These tests may also be ordered to help diagnose the cause of signs and symptoms such as prolonged vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, and respiratory distress), high CREATINE KINASE, high ALT, and high AST. This young male Canadian Forces member received absolutely nothing else from the Canadian Forces about his condition or medical disposition. He was simply sent home and forgotten! After all, the RCMP were quite content to harass the father, and now were doing the same to his children.4 So, lets screw with this fathers son, lets poison him? That was the RCMP game-plan in harassing him, because his father had successfully sued them.5

Chapter 16 [This young male Canadian Forces members family doctor does his best] Apparently the kid was poisoned, and left on the side of the road to fend for himself, just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11, cited above]. With the routine chemistry results from 14 July, 2006 which revealed high CHLORIDE, high CREATINE KINASE, high ALT, and high AST [see Appendix 17, cited above], this young male Canadian Forces member saw his family doctor to see if he could make heads or tails of the problem. This young male Canadian Forces members family doctor was the best, caring, concerned and eager to get to the bottom of such readings. And, as far as he father is concerned, that was the RCMP game-plan in harassing him, because his father had successfully sued them.1 Lets poison him? One can only assume this may be a possibility because the Canadian Forces never explained what the fathers son had contracted at Boot Camp so any supposition is possible? In fact, a new book highlights the extent of RCMP behaviour.2 After reading this new book3, anything is possible? As such, this young male Canadian Forces members family doctor requested blood work and other tests to try to determine the underlying cause of such readings especially since his RBC (High numbers of RBCs may be due to Kidney disease), ALT, and AST readings were still high months later. It was quite obvious this young Canadian Forces members symptoms did not settle down [see Appendices 18 to 29, cited below, as a few examples]! Apparently, the kid was poisoned and left on the side of the road, just like Footnotes 1. Part of the 14 year process that it took his young students father to sue the RCMP was trying to find a lawyer in Canada that would take on the task of suing the RCMP.

Chapter 17 [What did the Canadian Forces do for this young male Canadian Forces member] Apparently the kid was poisoned, and left on the side of the road to fend for himself, just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11, cited above]. What did the Canadian Forces do for this young male Canadian Forces member while his family doctor was trying to figure out what he had contracted at the Canadian Forces base in Shilo, Manitoba, Canada in the summer of 2006? The Canadian Forces did absolutely nothing for him! Except, however, try to get rid of him. As cited in Appendix 30, Captain D.R. Bowhey of the Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada 748 Comm Unit tried to get rid of this under-theweather young male Canadian Forces member on 03 August, 2006 [see Appendix 30, cited below]. Thats right, this Bowhey tried to fire the young male Canadian Forces member! As the father said, theres always some unscrupulous yahoo that is more than glad to help the RCMP out. After all, the RCMP were quite content to harass the father because his father had successfully sued them1, and now were doing the same to his children. So, lets screw with this fathers son, lets poison him? One can only assume this may be a possibility because the Canadian Forces never explained what the fathers son had contracted at Boot Camp so any supposition is possible? Canadian Forces simply left him by the side of the road and forgot him, very much like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11]. And, as far as he father is concerned, that was the RCMP game-plan in harassing him, because his father had successfully sued them.2 In fact, a new book highlights the extent of RCMP behaviour.3 And the Department of National Defence was more than happy to help the RCMP out! 133

A Commanding Officer to boot? Wow, what depths will the RCMP go to recruit people to harass this father and his children? Including this unscrupulous dog as the father called him. You can read more about Bowhey in General W.Z. Natynczyk says boot fitting procedures were not followed by 748 Comm Sqn, Nanaimo,4 as well as Section II of this book. He was the same guy in charge of the clown sized boots issued to the young female Canadian Forces member in General W.Z. Natynczyk says boot fitting procedures were not followed by 748 Comm Sqn, Nanaimo.5 Due to the clown sized boots issued to that young female Canadian Forces member, when she turned up at boot camp she suffered friction marks, hot spots and blisters caused by grossly oversized combat boots as documented and signed by Canadian Forces Shilo Base Surgeon Major Salsman.6 Bowheys the same guy that tried to get rid of the young female Canadian Forces member because she suffered plantar fasciitis and needed special boots so she could perform her military duties as also cited by Canadian Forces Shilo Base Surgeon Major Salsman.7 As clearly stated on 10 July, 2006 Canadian Forces Shilo Base Surgeon Major Salsman placed an order for special proper fitting boots for this young Canadian Forces female member with vibram-soles to accommodate her wide feet so she could perform her military duties.8 Hes the same guy that refused to give the young female Canadian Forces member the special boots to accommodate her plantar fasciitis.9 In our current case, what did our young male Canadian Forces member do? In response to Captain D.R. Bowhey of the Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada 748 Comm Unit attempt to get rid of him, this young male Canadian Forces member objected to Bowheys underhanded attempts especially since he was still under-the-weather [see Appendix 30]! What a great commander this Captain D.R. Bowhey of the Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada 748 Comm Unit must be, heres a young male Canadian Forces member under his command where his family doctor is trying to figure out what ails him and this Bowhey is trying to get rid of him?

134

Sort of reminds one of the Canadian Forces treatment of Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11]. Hes the guy the Canadian Forces didnt tell had been poisoned by his own men? Warrant Officer Matt Stopford was decorated for leadership in Croatia, but the army failed to tell him they'd discovered his own men found him too gung-ho and were poisoning his coffee.10 In Matt Stopfords case, the Canadian Forces, after 17 years as a soldier, Stopford, at age 34, was cast aside with life-altering internal afflictions.11 Sort of reminds one of this Captain D.R. Bowhey of the Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada 748 Comm Unit? Was this Bowhey trying to do the same to this young male Canadian Forces member? Cast him aside? Because he had been poisoned? Leave him by the side of the road? Because he had been poisoned? And not give him a second thought? Because he had been poisoned? Just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11].

Chapter 18 [Captain D.R. Bowhey keeps pushing this young male Canadian Forces member] Apparently the kid was poisoned, and left on the side of the road to fend for himself, just like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11, cited above]. Captain D.R. Bowhey of the Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada 748 Comm Unit first attempt to get rid of this under-the-weather young male Canadian Forces member failed because the young fellow wouldnt go along with Bowheys mean-spirited actions [see Appendix 30, cited above]. Was that the end of it for this Bowhey? You guessed it, no way. This guy kept coming back, again and again, trying to pressure the young male Canadian Forces members release [firing] or for him to quit. As the father said, theres always some unscrupulous yahoo that is more than glad to help the RCMP out. After all, the RCMP were quite content to harass the father because his father had successfully sued them1, and now were doing the same to his children. So, lets screw with this fathers son, lets poison him? One can only assume this may be a possibility because the Canadian Forces never explained what the fathers son had contracted at Boot Camp so any supposition is possible? Canadian Forces simply wanted to leave him by the side of the road and forgot him, very much like Warrant Officer Matt Stopford [see Appendix 11]. In fact, a new book highlights the extent of RCMP behaviour.2 And the Department of National Defence was more than happy to help the RCMP out! Including this unscrupulous dog as the father called him. These efforts by Bowhey were troubling, especially since this young male Canadian Forces members status had been changed by higher-ups where his RTU was changed to a medical RTU due to the undetermined medical conditions you have presently [see Appendix 31, cited below].

138

This unscrupulous dog was trying to shut the kid up the father was making too much of a stink!! In response, this Bowhey tells this under-the-weather young male Canadian Forces member young male Canadian Forces member he must show up for military training [see Appendix 32]. This unscrupulous dog was trying to shut the kid up the father was making too much of a stink!! The next letter dated 5 January, 2007 from this Bowhey makes reference to this young male Canadian Forces member being on medical excusal from military training for 5 months, with the comment that hopefully your doctors have been able to isolate your ailment with the further statement no further civilian doctor excusals will be accepted [see Appendix 33]? What? What is this Bowhey telling this under-the-weather young male Canadian Forces member young male Canadian Forces member? Too bad, tough luck if you are still under-the-weather [from being poisoned while at Shilo Base?] and Bowhey will not accept any more medical notes from his family doctor [and specialist medical tests] who is trying to determine this young male Canadian Forces members underlying ailment trying to have another go at poisoning him again? Apparently so? This Bowhey followed his 5 January, 2007 letter with another one dated 20 January, 2007 and one more on 24 January, 2007 where he is apparently trying to use the excuse that this young male Canadian Forces members underlying ailment may make him unfit for continued employment with the Canadian Forces [see Appendix 34 & 35, cited below], just like the Canadian Military did to Warrant Officer Matt Stopford who at age 34, was cast aside with life-altering internal afflictions by the Canadian Military [see Appendix 11].3 In response to Bowhey, this young male Canadian Forces members doctor wrote a letter dated 31 January, 2007 [see Appendix 36, cited below]. In it, this young male Canadian Forces members family doctor makes it very clear whatever this young fellow caught at Canadian Forces Base Shilo in July, 2006 was persisting [see Appendix 36]. The poisoning of this young kid was still taking effect?

But wait, thats not the end of the story. In an effort to try to figure out what unknown disease may have been floating around the Canadian Forces Base at Shilo, Manitoba in the summer of 2006 attempts were made through the media by this young male Canadian Force members parents to see if they could help out. However, although Karen Pauls, a national reported with the CBC news expressed interest in 2006 and did some initial checking nothing further was hear from her [see Appendices 37, 38, 39 & 40, cited below]? With the news media covering so much fluff you would think this might be of some interest? The RCMP are well known for telling the media to back off, or anyone else that criticizes them for that matter, as cited in a new book.1 And surely the RCMP wouldnt want revealed what they did to the boys father?2 And surely the RCMP wouldnt want revealed what they did to the boy himself, they poisoned him, in retaliation for the father successfully suing them [see Appendix 41, cited below] and they told Karen Pauls to back-off or they would get her too? After all, the RCMP are notorious for getting people who blab about them, as cited in the next chapter! Footnotes 1. anadas olice orce: Lies abrication per ury and much worse?

Chapter 20 [Those that blab about the RCMP threatened] One thing is for sure, anyone that criticizes them is in for big trouble. For example, a top RCMP officer has issued a thinly veiled threat to strip funding from Simon Fraser University if its lead criminologist doesnt stop criticizing the force [see Appendix 42, cited below].1 In an e-mail obtained by the Victoria Times Colonist, RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass chastises Robert Gordon, director of Simon Fraser Universitys criminology department, for his comments in the media that RCMP arrogance stalled the investigation into serial killer Robert Pickton.2 I would like to suggest that you should be much more careful in speaking on issues where you have no direct personal knowledge or where you may not be getting accurate information fed to you, Bass wrote in the lengthy e-mail, sent Aug. 22, two days after Vancouver police deputy chief Doug Le-Pard released his report on the bungled missing-women investigation, which placed significant blame on the Mounties shoulders.3 RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass went on to question the RCMPs role as a key donor for SFUs Institute for Canadian Urban Research Studies, which is housed in the School of Criminology.4 The ongoing bias you display against the RCMP in articles such as this have caused many to ask why we would want to continue to be in that partnership given this apparent lack of support from the head of the department, RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass wrote.5 This is a thinly veiled threat about the funding, Gordon said, adding that he finds it appalling a top Mountie would try to silence one of the forces critics. Its stirring up trouble for the person who has the audacity to stand up and criticize what they are doing.6 University of Victoria ethics professor Eike-Henner Kluge agreed, calling Basss statements inappropriate and unethical.7 I would certainly construe it as intimidating and a threat to withdraw funding, he said. The RCMP should have realized they are not funding a public-relations firm. You cannot fund academic positions with strings attached.8 The e-mail by RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass was copied to about 25 other people, including top RCMP brass, municipal police chiefs and the president of SFU.9 157

Gordon, a tenured professor and former police officer, said he has a duty to speak out for police reform in B.C. He has long said the Mounties should get out of provincial and municipal policing to better focus on national security.10 Gordon also noted hes not the only one raising concerns about the RCMP, pointing to recent reports by former Supreme Court justice John Major during the Air India Inquiry and retired justice Thomas Braidwood after the Tasering death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski.11 This organization is not capable of reflecting on their shortcomings and dealing with them, and thats a problem for Canadians and particularly B.C., Gordon said.12 Footnotes 1 - 12.

Appendix 42 [RCMP boss warns SFU criminologist to watch his words] RCMP boss piqued by Pickton criticism, warns SFU criminologist to watch his words Deputy commissioner questions whether Mounties should continue to fund SFU researchafter criminology professor spoke out about police handling of case against serial killer By Katie DeRosa, Postmedia News, The Victoria Times Colonist, September 3, 2010 A top RCMP officer has issued a thinly veiled threat to strip funding from Simon Fraser University if its lead criminologist doesnt stop criticizing the force. In an e-mail obtained by the Victoria Times Colonist, RCMP Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass chastises Robert Gordon, director of Simon Fraser Universitys criminology department, for his comments in the media that RCMP arrogance stalled the investigation into serial killer Robert Pickton. I would like to suggest that you should be much more careful in speaking on issues where you have no direct personal knowledge or where you may not be getting accurate information fed to you, Bass wrote in the lengthy e-mail, sent Aug. 22, two days after Vancouver police deputy chief Doug Le-Pard released his report on the bungled missing-women investigation, which placed significant blame on the Mounties shoulders. Bass went on to question the RCMPs role as a key donor for SFUs Institute for Canadian Urban Research Studies, which is housed in the School of Criminology. The ongoing bias you display against the RCMP in articles such as this have caused many to ask why we would want to continue to be in that partnership given this apparent lack of support from the head of the department, Bass wrote. The RCMP funds two research chair positions at the institute, at a cost of $4 million over the last five years. It recently renewed the $4-million contribution for the next five years. This is a thinly veiled threat about the funding, Gordon said, adding that he finds it appalling a top Mountie would try to silence one of the forces critics. Its stirring up trouble for the person who has the audacity to stand up and criticize what they are doing.

159

University of Victoria ethics professor Eike-Henner Kluge agreed, calling Basss statements inappropriate and unethical. I would certainly construe it as intimidating and a threat to withdraw funding, he said. The RCMP should have realized they are not funding a public-relations firm. You cannot fund academic positions with strings attached. The e-mail was copied to about 25 other people, including top RCMP brass, municipal police chiefs and the president of SFU. In it, Bass told Gordon he would have preferred not to share the dialogue with dozens of other people but given the fact that your comments are public, I do need to copy some of our key partners. In an interview on Friday, Bass said the comment was in no way intended as a threat to pull financial support for the institute. He said he was citing one example of the many positive partnerships the RCMP has throughout B.C. It was a comment I made based on concerns that had been addressed to me, Bass said. We have no intention of pulling away from that contract. We have a great relationship with SFU. Bass also denied trying to silence Gordon. Theres no intention to muzzle him, Bass said, although he added he wishes Gordon would contact the RCMP before making inaccurate statements to the media. Despite Gordons concerns, Paul Brantingham, associate director of the SFU research institute, said he didnt have a problem with Basss e-mail. The institute has explicit protocols that keep research independent and free from donor influence, Brantingham said. In this case, he said, the RCMP supplies data and crime statistics to the researchers, who then pursue the issues of interest to them. Gordon, a tenured professor and former police officer, said he has a duty to speak out for police reform in B.C. He has long said the Mounties should get out of provincial and municipal policing to better focus on national security. He argued hes not the only one raising concerns about the RCMP, pointing to recent reports by former Supreme Court justice John Major during the Air India Inquiry and retired justice Thomas Braidwood after the Tasering death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski. 160

This organization is not capable of reflecting on their shortcomings and dealing with them, and thats a problem for Canadians and particularly B.C., Gordon said. Am I alone in saying that? No.

Chapter 21 [Stay quiet, don't say a word or the RCMP will get you?] As mentioned, Sgt. Ron Lewis was the most vocal RCMP representative throughout the hearings. He's the one who accused RCMP commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli of "lying" and "orchestrating a cover-up."1 Now, four years later, Lewis quips that the whole thing has badly cut into his golf game. That sense of humor and detachment, the others say, made him the perfect one to keep pressing the case to Zaccardelli.2 Lewis, a former undercover drug officer who spent years in small Newfoundland detachments and who knows the art of prosecutions, meticulously laid a paper trail of notes of conversations with senior managers, emails, responses, and reports.3 He pushed for criminal investigations, audits, and action. When action didn't seem likely, he went to MPs and the media. Today, he still says there was a cover-up, not "mistakes in judgment" on Zaccardelli's part, as Brown said.4 As additionally mentioned, following the previous day's incendiary allegations of fraud, theft and corruption within the most senior ranks of the RCMP, Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day announced Thursday that he would be appointing an independent investigator to determine once and for all what actually happened.5 According to Sgt. Ron Lewis, former public safety minister Anne McLellan and former Treasury Board president Reg Alcock were informed of concerns over a cover-up that allegedly involved senior officials - including former RCMP Commissioner Giuliiano Zaccardelli in February 2004, but did nothing.6 Lewis says he provided the ministers with a 60-page document that gave "the whole story, basically." That, he says, includes "the inaction, the lies, the obstruction, the delays and the actual allegations of what they were, how much money's involved." He says that he asked the ministers to pass the information on to the Auditor General - who ultimately concluded that the matter lay outside the scope of her audit. - but that there "was no response from them."7 On Wednesday, RCMP officers testified before the committee that there was a cover-up in the abuse of the police force's pension fund. They said senior members of the force - including then-commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli - tried to stall an investigation into the matter after the allegations first arose.8 162

"I was met with inaction, delays, roadblocks, obstruction and lies," retired staff sergeant Ron Lewis told the committee. "[The] person who orchestrated most of this cover-up was commissioner Zaccardelli."9 This week's developments cast further doubts on the RCMP as a whole. Commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli, who presided over the pension fund investigation, resigned in December after months of withering criticism over the Mounties' involvement in Maher Arar's deportation to Syria particularly over his conflicting testimony to a Commons committee. On Wednesday, several other officers backed Lewis' claims about the misuse of the pension funds.10 RCMP Chief Supt. Fraser MacAulay added: "For the past few years, the RCMP has had a small group of managers who, through their actions and inactions, are responsible for serious breeches in our core values, the RCMP code of conduct and even the Criminal Code."11 The officers alleged that Zaccardelli and others blocked investigations and removed some who were asking uncomfortable questions. In blaming the leadership, Lewis said, "A culture was created by several senior executives where it was a danger for employees to report wrongdoings."12 Williams made the following observation to CTV News: "The orders from the top seem to be, 'Stay quiet, don't say a word, we're the RCMP, we have to be clean or look like we're clean' -- and they're not clean".13 Incredibly, he said, when questioned in the House of Commons about the matter, McLellan replied that there was "no reason" to investigate the RCMP Commissioner.14 CTV News tried to reach Zaccardelli for comment but was unsuccessful. CTV's Graham Richardson said from Ottawa that Zaccardelli will likely be called to testify in the coming days, given that his name came up repeatedly on Wednesday.15 He said deputy commissioner Barbara George has stepped down from her position as head of human resources for the RCMP on Wednesday but will move to another job. "All members of that committee seemed very overwhelmed by what they heard. They seemed out of their depth. We're hearing they're going to call for a public inquiry," Richardson said.16 In her office's November 2006 report, Auditor General Sheila Fraser wrote about fraud and abuse allegations in the management of the RCMP's pension and insurance plans that stemmed from 2003.17

163

As further noted, Commissioner Zaccardelli is advised of the problem in June, 2003 based on irregularities discovered by Denise Revine in early 2003, Ms. Revine was charged with responsibility for the A-Base Review. In the course of her work, she discovered a number of issues that caused her concern. She felt that monies belonging to the pension plan were being applied to uses that were at best peripheral to the administration of the pension plan. She also observed instances of contract splitting and inappropriate hiring practices.18 What did Revine do, Ms. Revine shared her concerns with her direct supervisor, C/Supt Macaulay, in early June 2003. C/Supt Macaulay advised Ethics Advisor, A/Commr John Spice, of these emerging concerns several days later. A/Commr Spice in turn discussed the matter with other senior officers, including A/Commr Barb George. Matters were taken out of C/Supt Macaulay's hands when A/Commr George insisted that C/Supt Macaulay come forward to the Commissioner.19 The result, on June 17, 2003, C/Supt Macaulay and A/Commr George went to Commr Zaccardelli's office. C/Supt Macaulay laid out the concerns with the assistance of Ms. Revine's notes. Commr Zaccardelli insisted that C/Supt Macaulay leave the notes with him.20 As further mentioned, Commr Zaccardelli was very unhappy with C/Supt Macaulay at the conclusion of this meeting. Commr Zaccardelli has told us that this was because he believed that C/Supt Macaulay had been aware of the pension plan issues for a year and a half before he (apparently reluctantly) came forward. Commr Zaccardelli concluded that this was a serious error in judgment on C/Supt Macaulay's part and that C/Supt Macaulay should be transferred out of Headquarters as a result. C/Supt Macaulay told us that he had no knowledge of wrongdoing in the pension plan administration prior to his meeting with Ms. Revine in early June. He assured us that he did not tell (and could not have told) Commr Zaccardelli that he had had knowledge of the pension matters for a year and a half. I have heard nothing that would cause me to disbelieve C/Supt Macaulay.21 Did Commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli lie? As further noted, what is important here is how quickly Commr Zaccardelli was prepared to cut a swath through the career of an officer who was highly regarded on the basis of a single meeting with that officer. Commr Zaccardelli did no additional diligence and consulted with no other members of the Senior Executive Committee (SEC). He did not even discuss his decision with C/Supt Macaulay before he gave the transfer order. C/Supt Macaulay's transfer to the Department of National Defense (DND) was a punishment transfer and very unfair to him. The unfairness 164

of this transfer sent a message throughout the organization that one brings bad news to the Commissioner at one's peril.22 What a Government, apparently serving with the Canadian Armed Forces [the Department of National Defense] is a punishment.23 Similarly, C/Supt Macaulay was unhappy about being banished to DND and even unhappier about what he saw as woefully inadequate management responses to the concerns he had brought forward to Commr Zaccardelli.24 Again, it must be asked: why do provinces put up with this police force, it would be less disastrous and more economically feasible to have their own provincial police forces -- more control? Footnotes 1 - 4. High cost of whistle blowing: Five RCMP employees exposed a scandal at the top. Now they reflect on the price they paid Tonda MacCharles, Ottawa Bureau, Published On Sat Jun 30 2007 5 - 10. RCMP scandal deepens: Officers allege highest levels of force involved in cover-up of pension fraud Kady O'Malley and Chris Selley, Mar 29, 2007 Also see about Anne McLellan cited on the web: Liberal Deputy Prime Minister Anne McLellan was quick - too quick - to reject an inquiry. She said, within minutes of the judgment, there was nothing new to be learned and little the trial hadn't covered - a sweeping conclusion for someone yet to read the ruling. Backtracking later, she offered a lame compromise: she'd meet with the families, along with representatives of CSIS and the RCMP, to explain all that has changed in the past 20 years. That strategy would have saved any number of governments and bureaucrats from a world of hurt. The people of Walkerton, Ont., could have chatted over tea about how their water system was now right as rain. And Paul Martin could have avoided the grief of the Gomery inquiry with a televised fireside chat about how the Quebec sponsorship scandal was the mistake of a past government. Lesson learned. No hard feelings. There were perfectly reasonable excuses for not investigating the circumstances of the worst terrorist attack in Canadian history: the need not to interfere with the police investigation, the need to wait until lawsuits were settled, the need to let the court finish its deliberations. Similar circumstances applied in the U.S. after the 9/11 attacks, but an independent commission has already investigated the disaster and its report is a national bestseller. In Canada, the families don't buy that it's 165

too late for an inquiry. "Enough of the stalling job," says Sam Madon's widow, Perviz, "just give it to us, for God's sake." Reference to: Air India Trial Ends in Acquittal: Government Inaction See also about Reg Alcock cited on the web: He became involved in a minor controversy in May 2005, after Manitoba Conservative MP Inky Mark alleged that the Liberal government had tried to bribe him a patronage appointment. Alcock categorically denied that any such offer was made, and joked that his party would likely go "a little higher up in the gene pool" if it had such intentions. Mark initially dismissed the insult, but later held a press conference to denounce it as racist, interpreting the "gene pool" comment as referring to the fact that he is Chinese-Canadian. Alcock responded by saying, "I did make the comment and he has chosen to interpret it as a racial or an ethnic slur. I wrote him a letter apologizing for that. There was no implication of that sort". The National Post newspaper ran an editorial stating that Alcock was "clearly casting aspersions on Mr. Mark's intelligence -- not his ethnic background".] The controversy soon disappeared. Reference to: Also about Reg Alcock cited on the web: We can play the race card, too Reg Alcock has issued a grudging apology for his "gene pool" insult about Chinese-Canadian Conservative MP Inky Mark: Treasury Board President Reg Alcock has apologized to a Conservative MP who accused him of racism for saying the Liberals would look "a little higher up the gene pool" if they wanted to recruit a new ambassador from opposition ranks. Alcock denied his comment was racist, however, and rejected Inky Mark's call for his resignation. "I am writing to apologize for the 'gene pool' comment," wrote Alcock in the three-sentence letter he sent Thursday to Mark, an MP from Manitoba who was born in China. "I was offended by your public slurs of myself during the preceding two days and reacted in an aside during a conversation on the issue. Nonetheless, two wrongs don't make a right and I want you to know that I regret the comment and apologize for it." If this incident had involved a white Conservative making a similar remark about a Chinese-Canadian Liberal, they'd probably have a Royal Commission or something called by now, so I can't really blame the Tories for trying to take advantage of this. Sadly, that's the way politics works in

166

this country. But it's telling that Mark needed to think about it for a while before deciding the insult was racially offensive: When reporters asked him for his response Wednesday, Mark dismissed Alcock's comment as a schoolyard taunt. But the MP for Dauphin-Swan River had a change of heart overnight. He held a news conference Thursday morning, backed by more than a dozen other Conservatives, to call Alcock a racist. "It demonstrates racial intolerance," Mark said of the "gene pool" comment. "It's about genetics. That's what the Second World War was about." 11 - 13.

The proof is in the pudding about RCMP involvement? Chapter 23 [Where else could the kid find out about his medical information?] By a preponderance of evidence including supposition, it was very suspicious the apparent poisoning of this kid and then no information whatsoever from the Canadian Military to try to cure the kid? Well, where else could the kid find his medical information why not the RCMP itself? Well guess what he was denied such by the RCMP? In a letter dated 17 October, 2011 by Arthur Dunfee with the Canadian Government [see Appendix 43, cited below], he indicates that the kid will not be receiving any help from the Government of Canada in seeing his medical file? And when the kid asked to see the medical file as per the RCMP letter dated 27 July, 2010 cited in Appendix 43 he was told it was in Edmonton, although the kid lived in Winnipeg, Canada? Why is that, well you see the RCMP didnt want the kid joining them because the father had successfully sued them [see Appendix 44, cited below]? And when the kid was actually sent his medical files from the RCMP, the dirty skunks crashed the mother-board on his computer with the corrupted disk they sent him [see Appendix 45, cited below]?

Chapter 24 [Is this RCMP psychologists degree APA or CPA approved, doesnt seem to be?] And, when this Arthur Dunfee with the Canadian Government in his letter dated 17 October, 2011 [see Appendix 43, cited above] says the kid has to have the psychologicals read by a qualified psychologist is this the kind of guy he is talking about?

This is a bold-faced lie, the kid did communicate with the RCMP, and he was told his medical file was in Edmonton although he lived in Winnipeg, Canada! When the kid pushed to see his medical files, the RCMP sent him a corrupted disk that crashed the mother-board on his computer [see Appendix 45, cited above]? Now lets look at this so called qualified psychologist? Everyone knows that if they want to make psychology a career goal, one has to obtain a recognized degree from a properly approved university. The standard for America is a degree program that has been approved by the American Psychological Association and in Canada the degree program has to be approved by the Canadian Psychological Association. In terms of at least one psychologist1 employed by the RCMP2, his diploma when he received it had neither approval.3 In other words, this RCMP psychologist who is accessing RCMP applicants in terms of their suitability has a diploma that is neither approved by the American Psychological Association nor by the Canadian Psychological Association. One young clean-cut RCMP applicant4 actually questioned this guys credentials: RECEIVED MAY 3 1 2010 D Division HSO 178

25 May, 2010 Neil Anderson Newly contracted RCMP Psychologist Health Services Offices D Division Headquarters: 1091 Portage Avenue P.O. Box 5650 Winnipeg, MB R3C 3K2 Mr. Anderson, I noticed that you are cited as having a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute (Carpinteria, California), however, aren't their programs not approved by the APA because of the distance component in them and their programs are definitely not CP A approved and if not APA or CP A approved are their degrees up to par? Given this, I will have to question your interview with myself that occurred on 7 May at R.C.M.P., 754 Dominion, Winnipeg, MB. Thank you The young recruit did not receive a reply to his 25 May, 2010 letter from this guy, Neal Anderson! No wonder there seem to be so many way-ward, messed up RCMP officers if this is the standard of RCMP psychologists? You would think the RCMP with the image problems they are having, they would have chosen someone with an APA or CPA approved degree?? What kind of decisions does such a psychologist' make about RCMP applicants? In this case, for example, this clean cut kid told this RCMP psychologist that he likes to catch bad guys [a seemingly worthwhile attitude if one wants to join the police] to which this psychologist said he was unsuitable although the senior RCMP officers who interviewed the kid said he was just the type of guy they were looking for?4 As the young applicant recalled, this was the nature of his conversation with Anderson: Anderson: Would you be able to use force, arrest an individual suspected 179

of a crime? Me: Yes. I have already arrested a number of criminals for different offences and have assisted others, Loss Prevention Officers, and police officers in arresting others. Anderson: If a mayor or family member committed a crime would you be able to arrest them. Me: Yes absolutely, I dislike anyone who has committed a crime, no matter what the crime is, and will not hesitate to arrest them or see that corrective action be taken for their criminal behavior. For instance, if my folks broke traffic laws I have informed them I would have to ticket them. I do not like associating with people who have admitted to crimes or been convicted of crimes. Anderson: Have you been a victim of a crime? Me: No. My parents raised me correctly in believing right from wrong, that is why I have never done anything wrong in my life. Anderson: Do you see everything in black and white, with regards to bad guys and good guys? Me: No there are areas of gray. For instance in my Loss Prevention, I detained people but did not call the police as there was no need to call the police, as the amount of merchandise was small or the person was cooperative, but if one has committed a crime they will need to be detain. Anderson: Is there any reason for someone to break the law? Me: Police forces and police officers operating in under-cover incidents should be allowed to break the law if it can crack down on organized crime or terrorist groups, but there is no reason for an ordinary civilian to break the law. As the young clean-cut recruit also mentioned, apparently this Anderson became more disturbed or agitated after each answer given? Maybe, its this Anderson who should be assessed? After all, the answers given by this clean-cut kid are very similar to those given by a hero cop This clean-cut kid tells Anderson he would enjoy getting the bad guy off the street as a police officer and this Anderson says he is unqualified to be 180

an RCMP officer? What kind of stupid logic is that? Has this Anderson heard of people like Daril Cinquanta? Daril Cinquanta is a former Denver Police Officer, with about 200 commendations, as well as the Medal of Honor -- his favorite phrase: "I like to chase bad guys" The thing I liked most was the chase, catching bad guys . He also goes on to say: as a 24-hour-a-day cop, Cinquanta made his mark by building a vast network of informants. He studied thousands of criminals. He learned their nicknames and the names of their brothers, sisters and girlfriends. Is this Anderson out to lunch? Police serve and protect! Thats what this clean-cut kid wanted to do? However, maybe the most important aspect of this case was the fact that this RCMP psychologist concocted a story with two other RCMP employees to tell the young recruit instead of being up-front with him: From: To: Date: Neal, Stacey and I discussed that exact plan a few days ago. Forgot to mention it today. Barb This Neal Anderson went along and concocted a story to tell the young recruit instead of being up-front with him: Original Message From: Neal ANDERSON To: Balcaen, Stacey <Stacey.D.Balcaen@rcmp-grc.gc.ca> To: SCHMALZ, Bairbara <Barbara.Schmalz@rcmp-grc.gc.ca> Sent: 04/30/2010 18:22:19 Barbara SCHMALZ ANDERSON, Neal, Balcaen, Stacey 2010-04-30 17:35

Barb and Stacey, Sounds like we need to have this applicant back in. I don't know him or about others' hesitancy, or what follow-up was done at this end. I suggest that, unless there's any administrative problem with our doing so, Stacey ask for the file back from Regina, and when we have it here, call the applicant in for an MCMI-III, and then to meet with me. If the applicant wonders why he's being asked back (assuming he's been informed he's been medically cleared), Stacey can acknowledge that I've been asked to meet with him after suitability review in Regina, and reassure him that! will be able to provide more information when he meets with me. Stacey, does that sound do-able? Barb, does that sound all right from your end? Neal Neal D. Anderson, Ph .D., C.Psych. Divisional Psychologist RCMP, "D7"V": Division Health Services 1091 Portage Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3C 3K2 tel: (204) 984-2007 fax: (204) 984-5580 email: neal.d.anderson@rcmp-grc.gc.ca What kind of person is this RCMP psychologist -- then again, does one have to ask, when one looks at the multitude of stories like those in this book about the devious RCMP officers caught with their pants down, literally sometime.5 No wonder so many nutters get selected to the RCMP [just see the litany of offences committed by them] in this new book entitled: anadas olice orce: Lies abrication per ury ... and much worse? Before his death he was able to tell a nurse at the hospital that an RCMP officer jumped up and down on him Is it going to bite the RCMP on the rear end, when people like this guy approves an RCMP applicant and that applicant freaks out later as an RCMP officer and the media find out that it was a guy with an apparent distance/correspondence [not APA or CPA approved] psych degree that approved that RCMP officer? 182

Take the example of an Ottawa police officer stabbed to death in his cruiser on Dec. 29 was remembered by hundreds of officers and members of the public Tuesday during a visitation at Ottawa's Beechwood Cemetery. Const. Eric Czapnik, 51, was killed last week outside the Ottawa Hospital. The father of four had been with the Ottawa police since April 2007. There were hard feelings between the Mounties and Ottawa police after the killing of Const. Eric Czapnik last December, admits RCMP Commissioner William Elliott. Sadly, and ironically, if you notice, the RCMP gave this guy [Anderson] who has an apparent distance/correspondence [not APA or CPA approved] psych degree a contract on the very same day this poor Const. Eric Czapnik was stabbed to death by an RCMP officer?? A little late, but apparently the Psychological Association of Manitoba has now closed down applications from those with on-line distance programs, with PAM no longer automatically accepts APA-accredited program graduates as meeting our educational requirements as APA now accredits on-line/distance education programs and PAM does not accept graduates from those programs.6 The RCMP goes along with the apparent charade that this Neal Anderson is an experienced RCMP psychologist. In a letter dated 22 June, 2010 to this young clean-cut recruit, Warren Dufour said that Neal Anderson was an experienced RCMP psychologist: Royal Canadian Mounted Police Gendarmerie royale du Canada Date: June 22. 2010 Your File Votre reference A00184954 From: RCMP Health Services Depot Division P.O Box 6500 5600-11th Avenue Regina, Saskatchewan S4P 3J7 Dear Mr. [Clean-cut kid]: This letter is in response to your correspondence dated May 25, 2010 to Neal Anderson. A review of your medical file documentation, which is inclusive of both physical and psychological assessments, reveals that you were determined 183

"not fit for engagement with the RCMP." In this regard, on the basis of the psychological assessment undertaken at that time by an experienced police psychologist, a 2-year deferral was recommended. This recommendation was provided to RCMP Recruiting. Sincerely, Warren Dufour, M.D. Health Services Officer RCMP "Depot" Division Canada That too was another RCMP lie? Apparently so, this young clean-cut recruit said that when he saw RCMP employee Neal Anderson on 7 May, 2010 this Neal Anderson said he was not experienced his contract with the RCMP had just started? After the mistreatment by this so-called RCMP psychologist, Neal Anderson, and the obvious misinformation by RCMP employee Warren Dufour, this clean-cut applicant decided he wanted nothing more to do with the RCMP. You cant get a straight answer out of the RCMP he said? He implied the RCMP were quite devious and wanted nothing further to do with them! And, the real reason the RCMP werent interested in this recruit, his father had successfully sued the RCMP pure and simple [see Appendix 46, cited below]! And, quite apparently, this RCMP stooge Neal Anderson went along with the charade! Footnotes 1. 1. How to Become a Psychologist If your school, at the time you attended it, was nationally accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA), then you shouldnt have any problems. But if your school had only a regional accreditation, then the board of psychology in the state to which you move may declare that your academic training was deficient by its standards, and you would therefore have to retake some courses, or take additional courses, or receive 184

additional training, that fulfill(s) the states requirements for a psychologist license. Also refer to: The CPA has been accrediting doctoral and internship programmes in professional psychology since 1984. Accreditation is governed by a set of Standards and Procedures to ensure that psychologists in Canada are trained for competent practice. The Standards require the completion of a doctoral degree programme offered, in an area of professional psychology, under the direction of and delivered by a psychology faculty at a provincially or territorially charted Canadian university. Also refer to: Frequently Asked Questions About Clinical Psychology Prepared by Keith Dobson, Ph.D., University of Calgary A major distinction is made in clinical psychology between accredited and non-accredited programs. The Canadian and American Psychological Associations (CPA and APA) have established criteria for high-quality training. Programs that believe they meet these criteria can apply to CPA and/or APA, and have their program reviewed. If they are judged to pass the criteria, the program is said to be "accredited". 2.

Chapter 25 [Lets look at this RCMP psychologist a little closer - I like to catch bad guys?] And, when this Arthur Dunfee with the Canadian Government in his letter dated 17 October, 2011 [see Appendix 43, cited above] says the kid has to have the psychologicals read by a qualified psychologist is this the kind of guy he is talking about? One young clean-cut RCMP applicant said he liked to catch bad guys?1 In fact, he was quite good at it. Apparently, he would make a good cop? He had perseverance! He was goal directed, with two university degrees by age 19? He worked well with the RCMP? This incident, which occurred on April 13th, 2008 is a pretty good one to describe this young male RCMP applicants perseverance. It involved his solo arrest of a shoplifting suspect. At 1220 the Sportsmart store at 3200 North Island Highway in Nanaimo this young fellow observed two people, one male and a female steal two lacrosse men/children sets and a Hellycross black jacket. This young fellow pursued the two of them following the man across the Island highway (four lane highway), along with a civilian where they successfully caught the perp. On the way back to the mall, the man attempted to escape where the young fellow had to tackle the man, sitting on him until the police arrived [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-10228]. The most comical aspect of this solo arrest was that this young male RCMP applicant ran so fast after the shoplifter that he lost both shoes, but kept on chasing the guy. The shoplifter was charged with theft under 5000, he was found guilty, received a suspended sentence, and was banned from the mall till January, 2009 [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-10228]. As cited, in an incident on June 15th, 2008 this young male RCMP applicant received a call at 1053 from Starbucks concerning a male individual who had gone into their washroom with a cup.

191

Apparently the day before he had reportedly gone into Starbucks washroom and had drunk alcohol and smoked in the washroom, and the staff wanted security to remove the man. This young fellow arrived onsite at 1058, going into the bathroom and was able to evict the man from washroom. While escorting the man outside, he became incoherent and started to lapse in and out of consciousness. The young fellow called 911, with the paramedics and police arriving quickly at 1115. The man admitted that he had overdosed on heroin earlier in the day and had been brought into Nanaimo General Hospital by police but had checked himself out. The young fellow responded calmly to this medical emergency. The man had been still in the effects of the drug when the young fellow dealt with him on the trespass issue at Starbucks [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-17378]. In another incident on September 12th, 2008 this young male RCMP applicant while patrolling observed an ambulance parked nearby with lights flashing, where a public disturbance had occurred. A young 20-year-old Aboriginal male was on the ground after being assaulted by three Caucasian males. He was complaining of head and neck pain. At the request of the ambulance paramedics, helped them with three other security officers putting victim on a stretcher and into the ambulance [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-28279]. In another incident which is a pretty good one to describe this young male RCMP applicants perseverance, it occurred on November 4th, 2008 and again involved a solo arrest. At 1238 p.m this young fellow observed a man set off the sensors at a local drug retail store and observed the man refusing to stop for staff members. The young fellow chased after the man, ordering him to stop, resulting in the man tossing one of the stolen items back. The young fellow pursued him, around a bus stop twice, and up a second flight of stairs, catching him in the process. The young fellow ordered the man to meet with the store manager and she would decide his fate. Before this could occur, the perp broke custody and escaped, with the young fellow chasing after him for three blocks before capturing him again. A passing RCMP officer slapped the handcuffs on him. As he had dumped most of the stolen items, except for tea bags, it was decided that a life-time ban from store was sufficient [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-33884]. In another incident on November 22nd, 2008 this young male RCMP applicant while working in security discovered a drug-deal occurring 192

onsite, discovering one crack needle, calling in RCMP. With nearby security support they chased the two suspected drug cars and a drug dealer on foot to a nearby hospital where they escaped [R.C.M.P. File # 200835832]. In another incident on December 11th, 2008 this young male RCMP applicant captured a shoplifting suspect on video surveillance. RCMP arrived and reviewed the surveillance with this young fellow and store managers [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-37596]. In another incident on the same date December 11th, 2008 this young male RCMP applicant came to the assistance of a mentally-challenged male individual from local General Hospital who was being threatened by five teenagers, two female, three male, and was going to be dragged out of a coffee shop and assaulted. This young fellow and his security partner chased the three male suspects later identifying them to police [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-37611]. In another incident on January 22nd, 2009 this young male RCMP applicant observed an older male by the local bus stop with a large hard liquor bottle open to his right. Alerted the local RCMP as this young fellow wanted back-up just in case the man became physical. He updated the RCMP at 1825, 1905 and at 1930 when the man finally passed out. This young fellow woke the man up when the man complained of medical problems and wanted to go to the hospital. As a precaution, this young fellow called an ambulance which arrived at 1949 and took the intoxicated gent to the hospital [R.C.M.P. File # 2009-1944]. In another incident on March 16th, 2009 this young male RCMP applicant heard yelling at 0152, where he saw a man punch a second male individual knocking him to the ground. The aggressive male then proceeded to kick the man on the ground. At 0154 this young fellow called RCMP dispatch to report the fight, and give their descriptions. The RCMP arrived on scene at 0201 and detained both males until a second unit arrived. The two males had also seriously damaged a Red Ford Truck out front of a local bar. Both men were arrested by 0206 for Damaging Private Property and Public Intoxication [R.C.M.P. File # 2009-6778]. While in security, this young male RCMP applicant had experience at major events, such as the B.C Sports Hall of fame event including such notables as Trevor Linden and Roberto Luongo on September 20th, 2008 at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre.

193

As well as the MISA Western Canada Fall Conference with about 400 delegates from across the country, the theme being "The Nature of Technology," with such notables as Dr. David Suzuki as keynote speaker on September 23-26, 2008 at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre. In speaking with the young fellow, the author found that he enjoyed the chase and the satisfaction of completing the task. As an example, the incident which occurred on November 4th, 2008 where this young fellow ran so fast after the shoplifter that he lost both shoes, but kept on chasing the guy came to mind [R.C.M.P. File # 2008-10228]. Seems like a worthwhile attribute for an RCMP applicant? Doesnt it? Perseverance? Determination? Seeing a task through to the finish? Not according to RCMP psychologist Neal Anderson? You see the real reason the RCMP did not want this young fellow is that he had successfully sued the RCMP- pure and simple [see Appendix 47, cited below]! And, quite apparently, this RCMP stooge Neal Anderson went along with the charade! Footnotes 1. Reference to RCMP Application # A00184954 obtained under Privacy Access.

Chapter 26 [Lets look at this RCMP bull-shite a little closer - If you live with your family dont apply to this police force?] Lets look a little closer at this RCMP bull-shite? Although the RCMP recruitment was in full swing, and even missteps in the past are not necessarily a barrier to employment, 1 the RCMP wish to reject this clean-cut kid because he wasnt dressed properly? What dastardly reason could there be that this clean-cut kid was not suitable for the RCMP? 2 RCMP Employee Stacey Balcaen said: (2010-05-03) Stacey Balcaen - Re: Fwd: Cadet Applicant The above noted applicant had been cleared medically from our office 2010-02-17 and the file is in Regina. There was some hesitance to clear him for all that met him, but at the time the MMPI was clear, no red flags noted from Regina Recruiting, he cleared the medical after a follow up... .so we had to continue on. I know that some people felt the same way in Regina, but there was nothing substantial at that time to red flag him for us or to conclude him on their end either. Let me know if I should re call back the medical file from Regina and have the applicant come in to talk to Neal. Thank you, Stacey Did you notice this reference to the kids files being in Regina? Here the RCMP readily admit the kids medical file is in Regina so what is this nutter Arthur Dunfee with the Canadian Government talking about when he says in his letter dated 17 October, 2011 [see Appendix 43, cited above and repeated again as Appendix 48, cited below] the kid can review his file in Winnipeg, Canada whereas the file is clearly in Regina? Nevertheless, lets look at the RCMPs wacky excuse for not considering this kid? What was the problem? 198

This file has stood out as being particularly peculiar in history and behavior of the applicant. The applicant appears to have never lived independently and without the close monitoring, guidance and influence of his family. It is questionable as to whether this applicant possesses the qualities to fulfill duties of the general duty task bank. I am requesting assistance as to whether this file may warrant a further psychological evaluation for the applicant. Please feel free to call to discuss this applicant. Thanks. Ron Cpl.R.W.S.

After all, look at the multitude of crimes committed by the RCMP, only a few mentioned in this book? Also, look at the attempts to cover-up crimes by the RCMP, as cited in this book?

Another interesting point to this young recruits case was the reference by RCMP employee Neal Anderson again to I don't know him or about others' hesitancy -- so a little more digging and low and behold the hesitancy by the RCMP to accept him as a recruit.1 What other dastardly reason could there be that this clean-cut kid was not suitable for the RCMP? RCMP Employee Kathleen Gibney incredibly raised the following: Kathleen Gibney 2010-04-28 13:52 Hi Ron, As per our conversation, here are some issue. that arose from backgrounds concerning the a/n applicant. The applicant always signs his correspondence with "B.A., B.Sc", no matter how informal the correspondence is.

Oh, definitely this is a reasonable reason not to employ him as an RCMP officer? Isnt it? Does anyone else find this a most idiotic reason for this RCMP Suitability 207

Chapter 28 [Lets look at this RCMP bull-shite a little closer - However, if you have a drug conviction you are welcomed by this police force?] Lets look a little closer at this RCMP bull-shite? Instead of hiring a clean-cut recruit, the RCMP incredible as it sounds have gone to hiring drug convicted individuals? The RCMP, which is on a hiring blitz, will now turn a blind eye to some indiscretions by its applicants, including some drug activities, CBC News has learned.1 An internal memo obtained by CBC News reveals the RCMP has changed its policy on drug use "to permit consideration of mitigating factors in all cases of criminal activity, which may include drug trafficking, etc."2 Does anyone think this is the stupidest thing they have ever heard? Well the reaction to this ridiculous idea came out good and strong in the Story Comments section: This is such a oke! You cant have criminals being police o icers! What are these people on?3 I thought the RCMP already hired from the bottom of the barrel? What is left?4 Sure, relax the rules and give each new officer 2 tasers. Then they can be twice as dangerous to the public.5 I think the standards are too low now. Look at the four liars from vancouver.6 I cannot see how 'lowering the standards' to help in qualifying more candidates for the RCMP is' a step in the right direction'. We should be seeking better quality people for the force, reliable people with a clean background not folks who have committed indiscretions, minor or otherwise. RCMP Officers carry guns, tasers etc. and have a great responsibility to society. We need the very best candidates possible.7 Maybe if the RCMP still had some credibility they could find credible applicants. I certainly dont paint all o icers with the same brush but the actions of some officers, and how those actions were handled by the institution, have really damaged perceptions of the RCMP. Before looking at lower standards for applicants they should look at higher standards for themselves.8 212

Well the reaction to this ridiculous idea came out good and strong in the Story Comments section: Someone commented on members not knowing or understanding the Criminal Code. They should not only understand it but have it memorized. My spouse was a member for years and he could quote the Criminal Code! Any member who doesn't understand it better make it daily reading and look up time. As to relaxing the rules. Stupid way to go. Move the pay scale up to attract better people. If anyone thinks this is going to be a "free-for-all" think again. Just because the rules will be relaxed a little even though they should not be, doesn't mean criminals will be accepted. It means that people who owned up to taking a few drags off a joint will not have to wait a year. As the bottom line reads - anyone with a criminal offence, need not apply. Anyone who thinks the training is easy - start running 5K a day - you will need to do that and a lot more on a daily basis - no matter the weather.3 You know what will likely happen when people that have been charged by an RCMP that has or had a criminal record for drugs or another minor record end up at trial, the defence lawyer will dig up crap on the cop from his earlier (drug days) and use it to defame the cops character and name in the courts. Basically saying to the judge or jury, how can we respect this cops actions when he/she- is/was a drug user/seller? See where I'm going with this? Isn't it kinda like a situation where the pot is calling the 217

kettle black? I think this is a bad idea for the RCMP. In the last 30yrs the cops have been busting people for having a joint on them. Now they can't find enough guys without a criminal record to fill the ranks... hahaha4 So let me get this straight, the shining examples of pride and justice as we know it are allowed to have a minor drug addiction, so long as they admit to it. Thats not only re-assuring but its also bullshyt. I can hear it now...

What a shame and embarrassment they have become! Going back to the issues surrounding Clifford Olsen. The RCMP managed to bungle that investigation up by not listening to other detachments suggestions with the 'we have it handled' attitude. Then they gave Olsen $100,000 to give to his family! Talking about adding insult to injury for the victims and their families.4 It's sad to bash the whole body of the RCMP but serious inquiries need to be started ASAP!

He refused to identify himself to hospital staff. He said he worked for the Government of Canada and was involved with international anti-terrorism enforcement.5 The RCMP constable said if he did not leave the hospital with prescription drugs he would miss a meeting. In that case, he said, buildings could be blown up and other bad things could happen.6 227

Staff found him to be very confused and perhaps intoxicated. When local police arrived to deal with him, the constable identified himself. He was released into the care of his brother.7 Two days later in Surrey, B.C., the constable knocked on a womans door and identified himself as an RCMP officer. His head was bleeding and he was unsteady on his feet. He was also described as sniffling and sneezing profusely. He asked the woman a number of inappropriate questions about her house, including its value and its contents.8 The woman felt threatened by the constable. At a co-workers urging, she called police. Both incidents were related to the constables addiction to prescription drugs.9 What did the RCMP do, they docked him four days pay.10 Incredibly, the constable remains on active duty in the Lower Mainland.11 And, the real reason the RCMP werent interested in this recruit, his father had successfully sued the RCMP pure and simple [see Appendix 54, cited below]!

Chapter 32 [Poison some kid sure why not?] When youve got people like this working for the RCMP, anything is possible? RCMP Corporal Robert Samson at trial said he had done "much worse" on behalf of the RCMP! As cited, in 1974, RCMP Security Service Corporal Robert Samson was arrested trying to plant explosives at the house of Sam Steinberg, founder of Steinberg Foods in Montreal. While this bombing was not sanctioned by the RCMP, at trial he announced that he had done "much worse" on behalf of the RCMP, and admitted he had been involved in the APLQ break-in.1 Continuing, in August 1974, Samson blew off a part of his hand in the course of carrying out a bombing on behalf of organized crime, likely with the aim of provoking government intervention against a militant strike of supermarket workers. Brought before the courts, Samson at first resorted to various improbable claims in an effort to hide his links to the mob. But then, suddenly, faced with the obvious skepticism of the court, he blurted out that he had done much worse for the RCMP.2 Ultimately, Samsons sudden announcement would open the floodgates to an entire series of exposures of RCMP wrongdoing, beginning with Samsons own admitted involvement in an operation against the Agence de Presse Libre du Qubec (APLQ).3 As further noted, during his trial, Samson testified that he had been involved in other questionable activities for the RCMP besides the bombing incident. When asked to explain he referred to Operation Bricole. This was the code name for the unlawful entry and removal of documents from the Agence de Presse Libre du Qubec (APLQ), a leftwing news agency located at 3459 St. Hubert Street, Montreal, which had occurred on 7 October 1972.4 Operation Bricole was the illegal RCMP operation that prompted a royal commission and removed intelligence matters from the Mounties'' hands, creating CSIS [Canadian Security Intelligence Service].5 Continuing, it has been cited, a former Mountie who stole a Parti Qubcois membership list in 1973 has revealed new information about one of the most infamous operations ever conducted by the disgraced RCMP security service.6

232

Dale Boire, formerly of the ultra-secret E Special covert operations team, said he was told information found on the list was so politically sensitive that officers simply locked it away and later destroyed it.7 The fresh details follow the burial in Ottawa this week of Alcide Yelle, the only RCMP officer convicted in connection with "Operation Ham" or any of the force's other "dirty tricks" against suspected Quebec subversives during the early 1970s.8 On Jan. 8, 1973, Cpl. Boire, chief planner for Operation Ham, broke into the Montreal computer firm Les Messageries Dynamiques with three others and stole a computer tape containing the PQ's membership list.9 A copy was quickly made and the master tape returned to cover their tracks. The copy was then dispatched to Ottawa.10 A couple of years later, on a trip to Ottawa, he asked another officer: "'What did you guys do with that?'" Mr. Boire, who retired at the rank of chief superintendent, said in an interview yesterday.11 "Someone made the comment that what they found on the tape was so politically sensitive, they didn't know what to do with it. Apparently the tape was kept in somebody's safe in headquarters for a few years and at the end of the few years, because they didn't know what to do with this thing, they burned it."12 "I could understand that. I guess when they went over the names they were quite surprised to see, I guess, some well-known names," of people whose association with the PQ, financial other otherwise, was disturbing to the RCMP and federalists.13 The McDonald Commission into the RCMP's dirty tricks campaign. It led to the force being stripped of its security service duties and the creation of the civilian Canadian Security Intelligence Service.14 Insp. Yelle and G section thought, "if we go and get those PQ membership lists, if there's any people in high government places, military people, maybe that are former FLQ sympathizers, that kind of stuff," he said.15 What was on the list that it was so sensitive to be hidden and then destroyed? Who was on the list? When E Special was tasked with the job, Cpl. Boire spent several months planning the operation, including several nights sneaking into the building 233

with a locksmith to make keys for all the interior doors the unit would need to unlock quickly on the big night.16 In 1983, officer Yelle was charged for his role in the membership list theft. He opted to face the court He was convicted, given a suspended sentence and placed on six months' probation, the only Mountie ever convicted for the RCMP era of barn burning, break-ins and mail openings directed at largely at the Quebec separatist movement. Charges against several other officers, including Mr. Boire, were dropped or stayed. Another was convicted but received an absolute discharge.17 "I think he took the rap to take the heat off a lot of people and especially the government of the day," said Henry Jensen, a former RCMP deputy commissioner.18 The elite E Special unit, meanwhile, carried out many other "Puma operations" installing bugs, hidden cameras, copying documents and other clandestine activities, none of which had ever been exposed.19 But on Oct. 27, 1977, then solicitor-general Francis Fox informed the House of Commons of Operation Ham, a move likely intended to head off potential embarrassing leaks as the McDonald Commission dug deeper into the activities of G section and other RCMP sections.20 "They threw us to the wolves," said Mr. Boire.21 Just look at what the RCMP did to this author?
