I began construction of our sauna just over thirty years ago in late March of 1983. At the time my wife and I and our three kids we were living in a log cabin that a friend and I had built and being very rustic and owner-built it didn’t have a regular bathroom so we needed some type of bath house.
I had scored the lumber necessary for the building from an old store down in the village of Cottonwood that was being dismantled by a new owner so the price was right (I got it for salvage) and the wood, being mostly rough cut lumber and boards from old growth fir, was perfect for the job and went well with the look of the log cabin too.

Actually it became the first of a number of buildings that I designed and put up on the land all of which were based on the gambrel or hip style roof principle.
I decided to put a second story on it rather than wasting the potential storage space and it came out looking rather funky but more than that it was to serve us well in many ways over the ensuing years.
Our roots having been firmly planted in the 60s Hippie generation from that period we’d always planned to return to the land and get out of the city environment and so our little 5-acre ‘small holding’ was just the spot and the way to create a more natural, sustainable and secure lifestyle in order to raise up the kids.
So what are the advantages of having one’s own sauna? Well, after thirty years of experience I can easily say that the first advantage is to one’s overall health (not to mention being one of the best method for getting a close shave!). The sauna is probably the best method of eliminating excess salt and related toxins from the body without the need for extreme physical exertion such as one requires when running or working out in a gym or other similar methods of working out a sweat. Basically all one requires is a water and a fuel source (in our case the sauna is wood fired) and we have an abundance of both of these so maintaining the sauna is very cheap in terms of any outlay of funds.

As one can see all that’s required in order to get your hot water is a canner on the top of the wood heater. In our case I was fortunate to find an old wood fired octagonally-shaped heater years ago that someone had discarded in our local refuse site. I managed to get it on the back of my truck and bring it home and set it up in the sauna. It was perfect for the job!
For years now I’ve been going out during the winter months when I had more time and cutting firewood. Since the great infestation of the pine beetle that happened some years ago the woods throughout the central Cariboo have been decimated leaving what must be millions of dead standing pine trees that make excellent firewood for both our home and shop and sauna.

This shot above is typical of my winter wood gathering. I’d go out and fall some dead standing pine as close to the highway as possible and then truck the rounds to the road using my trusty old toboggan and manpower. It cost me a bit of gas for the truck and the chainsaw plus chain oil and a lot of sweat but eventually the wood shed would fill up and we could rest, assured that come hell or high water or -40 or -50 or even -60 degrees Fahrenheit (and we’ve had it drop that low before).

Once the rounds of wood are split (again a good way to work up a sweat!) the rest is the luxury that heat, steam and water provides gratis.
The long winter months that we enjoy/endure here in the foothills of the Cariboo Mountains are when the sauna is used the most but as I will shortly explain it is an invaluable tool throughout all seasons. The photo below gives one an idea of what the sauna looks like outside during a cold winter’s evening. Inside of course the environment is exactly the opposite.

Readers may be wondering by this time what the connection is between the sauna and the unusual title for this edition of Sauna Notes. Well, like all things of late, my lifestyle and my work as a publisher are interrelated in so many ways that it’s impossible to separate them and this includes both the use and value of our sauna during hard times.
As this article is being sent to those on the Radical Press mailing list I needn’t delve into all the finer details concerning my present plight with respect to the ongoing struggle that I am involved in with Canada’s censorship lobby and the Canadian judicial system, both of which are currently attempting to drive me into either drinking or the poor house or worse still, a dungeon. As a result of their terrorization of truth tellers the last seven years of perpetual harassment by the forces of state repression have literally left my dear wife and I chained to a live of poverty due to all the restrictions that prevent me from doing anything else that might add additional sustenance to perpetually challenged larder.
Living on a fixed income that doesn’t cover one’s basic needs such as shelter, fuel, utilities and food is a challenge in itself but when you add to that all the seemingly endless legal shenanigans that one must cope with which require additional expenditure of an amazing amount of time and, yes, money, the equation for survival seems exponential to the point where it sometimes appears overwhelming.
Now here’s the connection. During periods when my pleas for donations become few and far between we still have to eat and pay the normal bills and also feed our chickens and our dogs and cats, all of whom are dependent upon us for their survival as well. In our new house that I built back in 1994 (which replaced the log cabin we once dwelt in) we have a hot water system that is fuelled by a hundred pound propane tank that we must fill approximately once a month. It costs around $90.00 to do that and when we don’t have the money we don’t have hot water running from the tap so, as the saying goes, we then must run for the water instead! Such has been the case for the past three weeks or so. Now this would be very onerous for someone who didn’t have any means whatsoever of producing hot water for all the regular necessities of life including washing clothes, dishes and of course one’s body and that’s where our trusty old sauna suddenly kicks in. While we are (hopefully) temporarily out of propane we can at least still bath and produce hot water for regular domestic use even though it requires (in the case of the house where we also have a wood heater) the necessity of having to physically haul the hot water about in buckets so we can do the normal chores that most people simply take for granted. Thus, as an emergency means of being able to still obtain hot water for our daily needs, the sauna has proven over and over to be a most valuable asset for us.
I’ll conclude with some parting thoughts about this whole issue of having to depend upon others for money. Most folks in the alternative online publishing business are forced to depend upon the gracious beneficence of their readership in order to survive financially. It’s become a way of life for the vast majority of bloggers who are attempting to inform the general public about vital issues and unless one has the financial backing of the larger sites such as DavidIcke.com or Rense.com or others of that category who are able to sell advertising space in order to cover their costs it’s virtually impossible to make money doing what we do. In other circumstances, for example when I would work as a carpenter running such a business, I could easily make sufficient amounts of money to ward off the wolf from my door but in the alternative media that option is basically unavailable as it takes literally 50 to 60 hours a week on the computer to do what I do and I’m still left without the time to get to all the issues and concerns that need to be addressed.
I cannot speak for others but I do know that even after years of hanging out my shingle on the website asking for donations I still sense an uneasiness about having to do it. I feel like some mendicant wandering about with his begging bowl hoping for the means of being able to sustain life and limb so he can continue with his so-called mission in life. That’s the long and the short of it and were it not for those few kind, generous souls who have helped me in a considerable way over the years I would definitely not be doing what I am today. To those kind people who appreciate the value of my work both I and my wife extend our deepest thanks and appreciation.

And so it goes. For all the stress and strain of maintaining Radical Press our little sauna still provides a much needed solace for body, mind and spirit. It’s a perfect way to regain one’s composure and stay healthy. Since building the little hut I’ve probably had less than dozen winter colds over the past thirty years whereas before then I tended to always come down a one or two or more during the winter months. I highly recommend building one if you have the space to do it.

[EDITOR’S NOTE: Once again B.C.’s former controversial premier Bill Vander Zalm has taken the courageous step of speaking out on an issue that has been plaguing hundreds of thousand of people around the world for close to two decades, the controversial issue of Chemtrail spraying of the earth’s atmosphere. In my own case I cannot thank Bill enough for finally taking this issue by the horns and demanding that government and politicians come clean on what the hell has been going on for so many years. It truly is a major breakthrough in terms of gaining coverage and I would personally like to than Bill for taking this stand.]
Bill Vander Zalm puts politicians on notice
Former Premier of British Columbia acknowledges chemtrails in public letter
Former Premier of British Columbia, Bill Vander Zalm sent the following letter to dozens of politicians across BC
August 14, 2013
We’re told that ‘Global Warming’, now conveniently called ‘Climate Change’, is a threat to Agriculture and therefore an issue of National Security. As a National Security issue, whatever they do to combat climate change, can be kept out of the public domain.
For years, many people have observed, what we were told to be, ‘Con-Trails’ (Airplane engine condensation trails), but different from the contrails as we used to see them. Instead of dissipating quickly, they spread, stayed in the atmosphere for a pro-longed period, and if a lot of them, criss-crossing, caused a more cloudy sky. In the Pacific Northwest, we often suffer cloudy skies, the evidence was not always visible, but many people here, as elsewhere, referred to the cloud forming trails as ‘Chem-Trails’, trails not caused by water condensing but trails full of toxic substances to supposedly fight Global Warming.
In government circles it is referred to as ‘Geo-engineering’, it’s manipulating the earth weather system. Scary stuff, especially when we consider the enormous capabilities of the HAARP technology. For the purpose of our submission, to seek information, Geo-engineering and Chem-Trails are defined as a military-industrial complex program in partnership with private contractors and possibly major fuel suppliers and airline companies, whereby planes spray particulate matter into the atmosphere that would otherwise not be there.
It may seem ‘far-fetched’ to some, but it’s only recently that we found out a Drone can see a human face on the ground, from 10,000 ft. up, that the government can monitor every phone call we make and every email we send and a terrorist can detonate a bomb by using a cell-phone from miles away.
Chem-Trails are said to consist of tiny particles of the very harmful toxins, Aluminum and Barium. Toxins that we inhale, poison our water and kill the soil. We can avoid cancer causing second hand smoke, but there’s no way to avoid the far more toxic particles that fall from the sky. Already diseases like Cancer, Alzheimer, Lou Gehrichs, Huntingtons, Parkinsons, Autism and Bone diseases are at a highest level ever, all of which could be directly linked to Aluminum.
Whenever man manipulates nature, be it for profit or politics, the cost and consequences are horrific. Events like the Hurricanes in the East, the Tornadoes in the Mid-West, the flooding in Toronto, the unprecedented flooding in Calgary, the loss of millions of trees in B.C. due to a pine beetle epidemic, will all be attributed to ‘Mother Nature’ and Climate change and not a mention of Geoengineering.
I would highly recommend that anyone wanting further information, check the internet for well known Neuro Surgeon Dr. Russell L. Blaylock who tells us about Social Engineering by the Elitists, funded by such foundations as ‘Rockefellers’, Ford and Carnegie.
According to documents released by the National Academy of Sciences, the CIA is funding a scientific study to determine the feasibility of altering the planet’s climate, in order to stave off climate change. When a government agency does a study, it might well be to justify activities already in play.
No such activity, as spraying the atmosphere with toxic chemicals could ever take place without government consent, Federally, State or Provincially and without a detailed agreement governing times, places and materials used. The government of Maui, Hawaii is now considering an Ordinance (law) prohibiting the release of aerosols and other particulates into the atmosphere without informed consent from the people of Maui.
Neither Federal, State or Provincial government has ever announced such a ‘Climate Control Program’ nor denied it existed.
I’m aware that any attempt at rationalizing complicated problems will be characterized, by the Elitists and those they control, as Conspiracy theories, and some will be, but this is then used to stop all attempts at creating a public awareness. Not too long ago, mention of governments telephone evesdropping or screening all our emails, would have been tagged as Conspiracy theory at its worst.
(1) I, Bill Vander Zalm, request through ‘Freedom of Information’, both Federal and Provincial, all information on file about ‘Climate Control Programs’ with the government or anyone of its Ministries.
(2) I, Bill Vander Zalm, request that Municipal Councils, City Councils and Regional Boards pass a resolution to say that ‘no particulate matter for climate control be sprayed in the atmosphere above their jurisdiction, without informed consent’ and that the issue be presented to the annual meeting of the Union of Municipalities for debate and consideration this September.

How tedious, onerous, and evil it all is having to observe Jews like Karen Selick posing as loyal Canadians and lying their face off about Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist Party of Germany in Jewry’s incessant and brazen bid to exploit to the max the cumulative hatred they’ve spent the past eighty years spreading throughout the world.
Selick and her ilk of pseudo-Left ‘Canadian’ Jews and their ceaseless, vituperative hate-fest against the German people as a whole knows no bounds. Glutted beyond excess with all their depraved Talmudic teachings, brains drenched beyond the point of saturation with vile, satanic enmity toward the German nation, constantly dripping lie upon lie, they’re more than willing to resort to every devious method and venue imaginable in order to perpetuate their venomous bile toward Germany, the German people as a whole and Adolf Hitler’s former government.
One such venue being used to mask their execrable intentions appears to be the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) whose motto reads: Protecting the Constitutional Freedoms of Canadians Through Education, Communication & Litigation. Obviously the CCF’s covert mission, in so far as ‘educating’ Canadians, also includes the ongoing denigration of the German nation through ceaseless vituperations such as those found in the writings of Karen Selick.
KSelickGermanophobe
Of course it’s all pure Zionist bullshit, subterfuge and window dressing, designed to hide the main purpose of pro-Zionist organizations like the CCF, that being the perpetuation of their two greatest LIES of the 20 Century: (1) the Mythical 6 Million Holocaust of Jews by the ‘Nazis’ and (2) the nonstop, psychopathically-driven, mind-control propaganda designed to brainwash generations of people into believing that Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist Party of Germany (coined ‘Nazis’ by the Jew media during WWII), and, by extension, the German nation as a whole, are the greatest cumulative evil ever to have existed upon this planet.
As a patriotic Canadian nationalist (not of German descent) what’s so exasperating for me is to witness dual-citizen Canadian/Israeli Jews like Selick twisting, then connecting, every injustice ever to have occurred, with the ‘Nazis’ in their eternally cursed attempt to buttress their own inevitable failure to keep the masses of goyim (non-Jew cattle or Gentiles) fixated on Hitler and WWII rather than focussing on the real criminals (both of yesterday and today), those being the terrorist, gangster Rothschild Zionist Jew cartel, the very same entity responsible for fomented WW I and WWII in order to establish their ‘Jews Only’ spiritual ‘Homeland’ in the heart of Arab/Muslim territory and all the subsequent horror and terrorism and genocide of the Palestinian people.
Typical of this specious Zionist Jew propaganda are Selick’s slanderous, libellous, ignorant remarks inserted throughout her recent article posted on the Canadian Constitution Foundation website titled, ‘You Don’t Fight Nazis by Becoming a Nazi Yourself.’ Here are some of her maliciously maligning deceits contained in the German hate propaganda piece:
‘One of the crimes that the Nazis committed against European Jews in the 1930s and ’40s was to legalize, or at least facilitate, the theft of Jewish property, merely because it was owned by people whom the Nazis despised for their religious beliefs.’
‘Wikipedia describes the National Alliance as a ‘white nationalist, anti-semitic, and white separatist political organization.’ In short, they are neo-Nazis. As a Jew, I have no sympathy whatsoever with the National Alliance. They sound vile and loathsome to me.’
‘The Nazis reviled the Jews and their religion, and felt that their revulsion justified them in depriving Jews of their property.’
‘Nazism was evil not merely because it was anti-semitic, but also because it did not respect private property rights. A state that does not respect private property rights is evil like the Nazi state was, even though it may not be motivated by anti-semitism.’
Contentious, convoluted statements such as these are standard Zionist Jew hate literature full of lies, distortions and misrepresentations and presented as if it they were as factual as the rising sun on a clear morning when in truth they resemble more the chemtrail haze that the Rothschild Jews are now spraying over the heads of the unwary goyim around the world in order to poison, weaken and kill off both the natural environment and its useless eaters.
The truth, when distilled from the overflowing vats of Zionist disinformation and out and out lies, is that when Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist Party (NSP) came to power in 1933 via the most open and internationally monitored election in history, World Jewry immediately declared a ‘holy war’ on the Germany nation thus making it virtually impossible for the National Socialists to maintain relations with the various and disparate groups of Jews who at that time were living in Germany.
Setting aside Selick’s silly, scatterbrained sophistry and fallacious reasoning for the moment it’s necessary to point out to the brainwashed bovine masses that the Jewish question in Germany when Adolf Hitler and the NS party gained power was far from simple as Selick would have readers believe. Germany at that time was populated with a large percentage of westernized Jews who had dwelt in Germany for generations and who, for the most part, felt they were first and foremost German citizens over and above their religious beliefs. In other words they had accepted assimilation as a way of life and a large percentage of them were married to Germans of Aryan blood. On top of that many German Jews had fought for Germany during WW I, along side Adolf himself and he wasn’t about to now turn on them just because the Zionists outside of Germany decided to declare war on the German nation. The greatest problem for the NS government was the mass influx of eastern Ashkenazi Jews that had flocked to Germany to escape the Bolshevik Communist Soviet Union and were attempting to exit to either America, Canada of Great Britain.
Ultimately the German government of the day chose to work in cooperation with the Jewish Rabbinate and the Zionist Agency, an organization that was formed to assist in the peaceful migration of those Jews deemed by the German rabbinate to be the most closely aligned with Judaism and the Zionist ideology and thus prime candidates for filling the quotas necessary for the Rothschild scheme of establishing the Jewish homeland in Palestine. From that point well into the beginning years of the war the Zionist Jews and their organizations worked in tandem with the German government in order to move as many Zionist Jews out of Germany as possible. If that peaceful migration of Jews was halted it certainly wasn’t the fault of the National Socialist government of Germany but more to do with the British government of the day that halted the said immigration in 1939 when it declared war on Germany.
It also must be clearly pointed out that those Jews who were deemed suitable for immigration to Palestine (chosen by the Jews themselves and not the Hitler government) were allowed to leave the country with their possessions and their wealth contrary to the simplistic assertions contained in Selick’s reckless and specious attempt to connect the government of Adolf Hitler with the machinations of what are in fact the Zionist influenced actions of the Harper government and its Zionist supporting cast comprised of the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs and the Zionist hate rag the National Post and likely others such as B’nai Brith Canada, all the real bone fide censors existing in Canada today operating clandestinely as 5th columnist traitorous Jewish lobby groups and now, as shown in Selick’s article, involved in further attempts to stop the National Alliance from receiving its legally bequeathed gift from a Canadian supporter.
YoungHitlerAdmirer 700
Selick’s attempt to equate Adolf Hitler and the German nation with all the present subterfuge emanating from the Zionist Jews here in Canada is a cogent example of how the Zionist Jew mindset operates. They distort everything out of proportion; turn the facts 180 degrees upside down in order to force events to match their long list of lies that must be publicized on a regular basis so as to prevent the stupid goy from realizing what is really going on behind the scenes. It’s the Zionist way and Selick is living proof of just how clandestine and contorted and dangerous the Zionist ideology is when it comes to discerning truth from the fiction of lies that political Zionism is predicated upon.
If I might paraphrase the precise words of Selick, who, in her maligning slurs and aspersions aimed at the National Alliance, had the gall to state, ‘As a Jew, I have no sympathy whatsoever with the National Alliance. They sound vile and loathsome to me’ I would unhesitatingly state that as a Gentile Christian I have absolutely no sympathy whatsoever with the Zionist Jews. They not only sound vile and loathsome to me but their actions over the past century and longer have convinced me that they ARE vile and loathsome and that they pose the greatest danger to world peace and harmony that this world has ever experienced.

The beatings and abuse and injustice never stops.
Helen Michell (shown in the photo above) and also known by her native name Telquaa, and her husband Frank Martin, both B.C. native-born residents, have been the victims of ongoing police brutality, stalking, harassment, racial profiling and hateful prejudice for the past twenty-five years and longer and the abuse continues to this day despite endless attempts at peaceful pleading to all levels of government ranging from the provincial to the federal to International agencies such as the United Nations to have the injustices committed against them halted.
The fact that this tortuous, incessant assault upon two now elderly First Nations people and their family, whose only ‘crime’ over the past decades has been their peaceful and ceaseless support for and advocacy to protect their unceded territories, the natural environment and their way of life as reflected in the wisdom and ways of their traditional hereditary ancestors, begs the question as to the type of justice system being reflected here in British Columbia by these heinous acts of deliberate terrorist against two innocent indigenous people.
What dire threat do these two sovereign-minded individuals pose to the province of B.C. that they have been profiled by the RCMP to the extent they have then subjected to endless attacks based upon either petty vehicle infractions or simply the fact that these victims of police abuse dared to venture out on our public highways?
What’s more astounding yet is the fact that due to all the repeated attacks over the years that have included deliberate acts of forcefully running their vehicle off the road and causing a near fatal accident that left Helen Michell a paraplegic and blind in one eye, these cruel, vindictive ‘peace officers’ who hide their vicious actions behind a mask of police badge and uniform authoritarian legitimacy, are now dragging this same helpless, crippled woman out of her van and beating her, breaking her finger and bruising her body out on the public highway in broad daylight and in view of her children and then, if only to add insult to their despicable injuries, they turn around and deliberately twist the whole affair out of context like some cheap Mossad maneuver and lay charges of criminal assault against Helen, the very victim who they’ve intentionally and wrongfully battered and beaten for the supposed ‘crime’ of not having a goddam signal light that worked properly; an accusation that both Helen and Frank adamantly deny!
AGBond
There’s something is extremely vile and wicked with is whole scenario and it’s beyond time that B.C.’s Attorney General and Minister of Justice Shirley Bond stepped in and put a stop to this endless legacy of lunatic behaviour by these belligerent, para-military mercenaries of the state otherwise know as the RCMP before one of these asinine, psychos eventually loses total control and pumps either or both of these innocent people full of lead; a scenario that is becoming more and more prevalent during these times. An investigation is overdue into who the people are responsible for stalking and threatening and terrorizing these people and that investigation should be commenced by the AG’s office and not any RCMP organizations like the RCMP Complaints Commission.
Frank&Telquaa
The Radical Press has been following the story of Frank and Helen and documenting their ongoing plight with the provincial authorities and their decades long efforts to get their territory located at Maxan Lake in the Burns Lake region of the province returned to them; land that that was stolen from under them back in the 1990’s by the actions of crooked government-elected chiefs and band counsels. In an Interview first published in the now defunct monthly tabloid called The Radical, back in June of 2001 readers can get a good glimpse of the possible reasons why these two indigenous sovereingtists have been subjected to this ongoing abuse for so long. I highly recommend that viewers look at it.
The list of repeated abuses, beatings and harassment is phenomenal and stands as a stark reminder of just how brazen and ugly the so-called justice system truly is here in B.C. if you’re not a member of the dominant, privileged society or a person of wealth and influence. The following story published by RadicalPress.com back on February 27th, 2011 is a vivid account of the life that Frank and Helen are living in Lotus Land, also touted as the most beautiful place on earth to live. It’s not a pretty tale at all. Frank Martin has been subjected to police violence again and again all for the simple crime of standing up for his rights as a free and independent thinker and a man who refuses to buckle under to the oppressively constant pressure to not question the criminal activities of his own ‘red apple’ brothers or those who’ve created the current system of native governance across Turtle Island.
FrankMartinPic
Almost daily in the controlled media we hear of horror stories of abuse after abuse by estranged RCMP officers who now behave more like the old bolshevik Cheka secret police did in the Soviet Union rather than decent, honest, sensitive protectors of the public. It’s these types of aberrant behaviour on the part of the cops that makes it so plainly obvious to Frank and Helen that the safety of their lives and their family members is becoming more and more precarious as time goes by and sooner or later one of these maniacs with the yellow striped pants will blow yet another fuse and end up murdering either them or their children.
This story is being sent to the mainstream media here in B.C. and elsewhere plus it is going directly to the Attorney General’s office and to Shirley Bond. Will she actually do something about these crimes against Frank and Helen and put an end to legacy of injustice? Let’s find out.

Dear Free Speech Advocates and Radical Press Supporters,
On Tuesday, July 9th, 2013 I once again donned my suit and tie and along with my dedicated wife drove into the small city of Quesnel in order to attend court on the matter of the Sec. 319(2) CCC charge and arrest for the purported crime of ‘willfully promoting hatred against ‘people of the Jewish religion or ethnic group’ originally brought on by B’nai Brith Canada’s Agent Z and serial Section 13 complainant Agent Y.
At my last appearance on May 28th, 2013 I had expected to find out whether or not the Crown’s new strategy of going for a ‘direct indictment’ instead of allowing me to have the customary preliminary hearing in order to determine whether they had a strong enough case to move forward to a trial by judge and jury it turned out that the B.C. Attorney General’s office had still not made up its mind. As a result Judge Morgan was forced to extend the time period further and set a new date of July 9, 2013, one which Crown Counsel Jennifer Johnston felt would give the AG’s office more than sufficient time to determine whether to go ahead with Crown’s proposed unusual move.
It was a welcome relief for my wife and myself to finally get a month and a half off from the seemingly endless and onerous legal harassment that’s been going on since May of 2012. Unless someone has been forced to run through this gauntlet of appearance upon appearance combined with never-ending and surprising changes whenever they do appear it’s hard to imagine the stress and strain that it puts upon a person or a relationship in the case of a married couple. Now we basically could get on with our lives for a few weeks at least and enjoy a little peace and quiet while the Crown was making up its mind as to what direction the proceedings would take.
June passed without any word on the direct indictment and July also brought forth nothing in the way of new disclosure on this matter. Finally on Monday, July 8, 2013, the day prior to my appearance I received an email letter from CC Johnston containing a one line statement, ‘The Crown will not be filing a direct indictment on file 25166-5.’
Knowing that the Attorney General’s office would not be going for a direct indictment was good news and meant that at least now there was a still a glimmer of hope that I might be able to proceed with my Rowbotham application (to get a government funded legal counsel to defend me) and hold a preliminary inquiry to determine the merits of the aforementioned Sec. 319(2) charge.
The time for the appearance was 1:30 p.m. and we were there, as usual, a few minutes in advance. When I checked the docket on the wall outside the lower court room where the proceedings have been taking place I noticed that my name wasn’t on the list! What’s going on now was my first thought. I double checked just to make sure I hadn’t missed it and then decided to go upstairs to the court registry office to find out what was going on when one of the court clerks came by and said that there wasn’t going to be a court appearance for me today and that I should go up to the next floor and see the trial coordinator.
This has been the manner in which the Crown has acted since the beginning of my case. Knowing that I don’t have a lawyer to represent me Crown Counsel Jennifer Johnston, when she sent me her email the day before, could easily have informed me at the same time that I wouldn’t have to appear in court and instead ought to see the trial coordinator to set up dates for my Rowbotham application and for the preliminary hearing. But, out of either oversight or spite (and given all of her previous aggressiveness and calculated efforts to have me perceived in the same light as a child pornographer I would venture to say that it’s the latter) she failed to notify of this simple procedure.
So I and my dear wife went into the trial coordinator’s office and discussed the three immediate concerns related to my case. The coordinator was obviously becoming impatient with all the delays over the past months and was determined to set some dates. The first thing on her agenda was to call, via telephone, Keith Evans who is legal counsel for the B.C. Attorney General’s office in order to discuss my Rowbotham application which he is overseeing. There was some banter back and forth between the two parties in order to clarify exactly what was going on. I had submitted my Notice of Application and Affidavit to the AG back on April 23, 2013 and received a package of material back from Mr. Evans on May 11th explaining all the additional information that I was expected to furnish him with prior to a hearing taking place on the matter.
Then, when Crown suddenly decided to go for a direct indictment things changed and I had to wait for verification on that matter prior to completing the Rowbotham application because of the fact that if a direct indictment was going to be the method of proceeding then I would have to make the Rowbotham application out for a lawyer who would represent at the trial stage. If a direct indictment wasn’t going to be method used then I would have to make the application out to get a lawyer to represent me at the preliminary hearing.
Now that we knew what direction the Crown was heading in AG counsel Evans told the trial coordinator that he needed the additional information from me regarding my financial status before proceeding with the Rowbotham application and that then the Crown could set a date for a hearing on the application. The trial coordinator set August 13th, 2013 as the time in which I should have completed the required additional information and furnished AG Evans with it. When I returned to her office on that date we would then fix a date for a hearing on the matter. I would be expected to appear at this determined time and defend myself without counsel as I attempted to justify why I felt I could not afford to hire a lawyer and why I also felt that the case was much too important and complex for me to deal with it on my own. The outcome of this hearing will decide whether or not I will qualify for a government appointed lawyer to assist me in my defense. If I am refused it means having to go it alone without counsel and that could drastically change the nature of the case in undetermined ways.
One further point regarding the Rowbotham application and the preliminary hearing needs to be highlighted here. From the outset of this ‘hate crime’ show trial venture by the Crown there’s been a concerted effort to downplay the preliminary hearing stage of events. Why this is occurring I’m not exactly sure but it’s been happening over and over again to the point where I feel it needs to be discussed. The primary purpose of a preliminary hearing is to determine whether or not the Crown has sufficient evidence to proceed to trial. Crown has also been stating that there is a very low threshold which it needs to meet in order for the case to proceed but I believe there are some critical issues which they are overlooking. In my case where the Crown itself (through the actions of the RCMP) broke the law right from the start by issuing an illegal search warrant to Det. Cst. Terry Wilson that then allowed his ‘Hate Crime Team’ to enter my home and steal all of computers, email files and subsequently all of my firearms was a fundamental breach of the Criminal Code of Canada which states under Section 183 that a Sec. 319(2) ‘offense’ does NOT allow for search and seizure of an accused premises and the removal or interception of any private communications or electronic files. My former counsel Doug Christie had allotted 5 days of time in order to deal with this and other matters during the preliminary hearing but in fixing a date the trial co-ordinator booked for only 5 hours on the January 22nd. I will be checking into this further as well as addressing it with counsel should my Rowbotham application prove successful.
Having dealt with that issue the trial coordinator then brought up the matter of my previous application to the court regarding particularization of disclosure. Readers who have been following these updates will know that I applied earlier on for particularization of the evidence so that I could get an idea of what it was that the Crown was planning to use during the trial to determine that I ought to be found guilty of this ‘hate’ crime. All I now have is well over a thousand pages of documents filled with all sorts of articles, online books, etc. that the Crown (via Det. Cst. Terry Wilson of the BC Hate Crime Unit) has been downloading from RadicalPress.com in what it purports to be an ‘ongoing investigation’ to back up their claim that I am guilty of committing said Sec. 319(2) ‘crime’. In order for me to defend myself against these charges I need to know what posts on the website are being used but when the application first came up before Judge Wilson on May 28th, 2013 Crown Counsel Johnston attempted, with a rhetorical flourish of her hand, to simply dismiss the application outright stating that there was no legal precedent or case law that required the Crown to furnish me with any particularization whatsoever. Given that my application was one which had been prepared by my former counsel Douglas Christie and was replete with case law backing it up, all the sound and fury emanating from CC Johnston appeared to signify nothing beyond theatrical antics rather than anything legal and so Judge Morgan determined not to delve further into it. The trial coordinator asked me if I would like to address the matter when I returned to court on August 13th and I said that would be fine.
The final date to fix was one for the preliminary hearing and already, because of the many delays and circumlocutions instigated by the Crown, this meant that it wouldn’t be taking place until next year. After checking her schedule the trial coordinator chose the date of January 22nd, 2014 for the preliminary hearing with an estimate time of 5 hours allotted. She also set a date of January 7, 2014 for a trial confirmation hearing. All of these proposed dates could possibly change if the Rowbotham application is approved and my new counsel has any concerns over anything.

[Editor’s Note: When Section 13 was repealed by the federal government on June 26th, 2013 there was great rejoicing among Canadians who have been witnessing the tragic events that have unfolded over the past few decades due to the draconian nature of this unjust piece of legislation tucked away in the Canadian Human Rights Act. I was one of those who was glad to see it finally repealed but as Marc Lemire explains in his article below it’s not as if a general amnesty had suddenly been declared for those who were already under the gun and had been accused under this specious legislation prior to the June 26th repeal.
Like Marc and others I too was being forced to participate in that charade right up until the time that Marc’s case was heard by the Canadian Human Right’s Tribunal and the Tribunal declared it to be unconstitutional. It was then that my case and others like mine were all stayed when the Canadian Human Rights Commission appealed the Tribunal’s decision and forced Marc to then have to then contest their appeal in the federal court.
In other words all the cases that were not yet completed when the Tribunal ruled on Marc Lemire’s are still waiting in line and if Marc doesn’t win in this final battle with the Canadian Human Rights Commission then the rest of us will be rammed through the now defunct process regardless of whether or not it no longer exists in real time. What it really goes to show is that human rights organizations like the Canadian Human Rights Commission exist in separate realities and twilight zones where what is considered normal and common sense don’t hold any sway.
Given these circumstances and the fact that those writers, publishers, bloggers and concerned individuals who weren’t affected by Section 13 when it was still actively in force are now free to speak out more forcefully about this issue it’s now their responsibility to pick up the slack and start defending those of us who are still awaiting a fate that none are guilty of nor responsible for having created in any way.
The first thing for everyone is to spread the word about the importance of Marc’s case now pending and to assist in any way possible to make sure that he doesn’t lose his appeal.]

http://canadianhumanrightscommission.blogspot.ca/2013/07/section-13-repeal-what-does-it-mean-for.html
Last week, the Senate of Canada passed Bill C-304, which repealed Section 13 and 54 of the Canadian Human Rights Act. Section 13 was Canada’s shameful censorship legislation, which made it an offence to ‘likely’ ‘expose’ privileged groups to ‘hatred and/or contempt.’ There are NO defences under Section 13! Even truth and intent are considered irrelevant to a finding of discrimination. The law was enacted in 1977 and in the intervening years, not a single person who has been hauled up on Section 13 charges has ever been acquitted a 100% conviction rate. Section 13 has been used and abused since its inception.
Bill C-304 has a one year implementation period written into it, so in effect, Section 13 will technically be gone in June, 2014. It is unlikely that the Canadian Human Rights Commission will accept and approve any new Section 13 complaints at this point, but who knows, it’s really hard to know what fanatics will do. The CHRC’s main stumbling block is the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal which ruled in the Lemire case, that Section 13 was unconstitutional, and has since stopped all Section 13 cases ‘Sine Die’. It’s pretty clear the Tribunal does not want to be a willing participant in the Human Rights Commission’s fanatical restriction of freedom of speech, or have any part in the CHRC’s spying and harassing of Canadians. As odd as this may sound, in the judicial system, it was actually the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal which sounded the alarm over Section 13 and the CHRC’s apparatchiks’ handling of cases, and their steadfast refusal to mediate any complaints (which flies in the face of any remedial piece of legislation). Section 13 was never meant to punish and persecute people, but the fanatics at the CHRC just couldn’t resist grinding poor and defenseless people into the ground with protracted and expensive litigation.
So what happens now?
At it currently stands, there will most likely never be another new Section 13 case in Canada, but for those currently in the system; it’s a totally different story.
Bloggers can now rest easy; that the ‘Nazi fetishists’ of the CHRC will not be logging into their websites, dressing up as Nazis and spying on them. Message Board owners can breathe a little bit freer now and not have to worry about busy body ‘hate finder General’s’ looking to cash in on the latest ‘witch’. The chill that Section 13 placed over all internet communications is now gone.
But for those of us who are caught up in the Section 13 ‘torture rack’, it might still be a while until we can throw off the yoke of censorship. The process is still the punishment, and the CHRC is going to take out their anger and revenge on us. As of today, all other Section 13 cases have been stopped pending a decision in my case. But with being the last standing Section 13 victim, the CHRC is going to open up both barrels on me!
Canadian law is quite a confusing thing. There is a big difference between a repeal of a law, and the court finding a law ‘unconstitutional’. Of course my entire 10 year legal ordeal against the CHRC has been for the latter. To find Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act an unconstitutional abridgement of the Charter of Rights, and of my freedom of expression. I spent some 6+ years fighting for my freedom before the CHRC and the Human Rights Tribunal. On September 2, 2009, the Tribunal acquitted me of the hundreds of ‘hate speech’ charges leveled against me, and also found that Section 13 was unconstitutional. This ruling was appealed by the CHRC to the Federal Court, which partly sided with the CHRC. The court ruled with me, that the fine provisions were unconstitutional (Section 54), but that Section 13 was just fine. That ruling is currently under appeal to the Federal Court of Appeals, with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association and others supporting my position.
Just to give a better explanation between a repeal of a law, and the finding that a law is unconstitutional. (Keep in mind, I am not a lawyer) My impression is that the Parliament can repeal any law. That does not mean that the law was an unjustifiable infringement on any Canadians. But rather, when a law is found to be unconstitutional, it is the court saying that this law was wrong from the start, and is an unjustifiable infringement. The main difference is, when a law is repealed, no future cases can be brought. But if a law is found unconstitutional, then no cases should have EVER been brought. It may open up an option for individuals to sue the government for wrong doing, as well it demonstrates that no person should have even been convicted under the law. In effect, the law is flawed, and the court is correcting this flaw by striking down the law.
Those are big differences, and especially important for those who are currently before the CHRC’s Section 13 Thought Inquisition. When a law is repealed, it applies going forward. But Canadian law is so screwy that anyone who was previously charged, they have to fight under the previously enforced rules. So basically, the law was ‘constitutional and in force’ when the complaint was filed against me in 2003, so that’s the version of the law I am fighting. Move over ‘Alice in Wonderland’ there is a whole new world where the rabbit hole never ends.
So in other words, I am now fighting at the Federal Court of Appeals, on the constitutionality of Section 13, which has now been repealed. WTF! How much crazier can it get? But it’s no laughing matter. I am fighting against a lifetime speech ban, which if I ever violated, could result in me going to jail for up to 5 years. (Several others in the past have been sentenced to up to 1 year in jail for violating a lifetime speech ban, so this is no joke)
The heart of my appeal to the Federal Court of Appeals is that Section 13 is unconstitutional on dozens of grounds. That it is an unjustified limitation to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and not saved by Section 1 of the Charter. That’s really the crux of the case Section 1 of the Charter. And as part of a review of my Section 1 arguments, the Court has to look at the will and wishes of the Parliament of Canada (pressing and substantial need). And this is where the repeal of Section 13 is going to immensely help me. How can anyone say that Section 13 is a minimal impairment to freedom and ‘pressing and substantial’ in Canada, when the Parliament of Canada has spoken so clearly and repealed Section 13.
My case is the last hurrah for the CHRC censors. There won’t be any new cases, so if they want to leave with a bang (and fanatics always seem to!) they are going to pull out all stops to beat me at the Federal Court of Appeals. In their eyes, if Section 13 has not have been found unconstitutional they can blame those evil ‘Conservatives’ for repealing the law (once again refusing to accept any responsibility for the issues surrounding Section 13) The CHRC has already spent hundreds of thousands of tax-payers money to fight against me over the past 10 years. I would not be surprised in the number was actually in the millions. The CHRC are using a high priced lawyer (actually lawyers) from one of downtown Toronto’s expensive law firms. In order to try to manipulate public opinion, the CHRC spent hundreds of thousands with the astronomical priced Hill and Knowlton public relations firm, to do damage control on the Section 13 file. Gee, that was money well spent! After all, it seems like the censors just see the gullible tax-paying sheeple as an endless pit of CA$H, which they can use to harass and silence those ‘ignorant’ Canadians who just don’t get with their ‘program’. (Pogrom?)
‘Why Marc Lemire Must Challenge Constitutionality of a Law That May Be Repealed’
Please have a look at my video on ‘Why Marc Lemire Must Challenge Constitutionality of a Law That May Be Repealed’
image002
YouTube: http://youtu.be/PVNaZzj6wD4
1. If Marc Lemire simply accepts the Federal Court ruling of Justice Richard Mosley then Lemire faces a lifetime Free Speech Ban for the ‘crime’ of posting a document that contains the very same information and statistics the Canadian Blood Services used to ban homosexual men from giving blood.
2. Even if Section 13 is repealed by the Senate it makes no difference to Marc Lemire’s case, nor to the cases of hundreds of other Canadians already charged and convicted under this oppressive law. As absurd as it sounds, Marc Lemire could face a lifetime ban on his Right to Freedom of Speech under a law that no longer exists.Should he refuse to abide by the lifetime Free Speech ban he could go to prison.
The maximum penalty for contempt of a Tribunal decision is 5 years in prison. The maximum penalty for a conviction of criminal ‘hate speech’ under Section 319 of the Criminal Code: Two years.
In the entire history of the Canadian Human Rights Commission not a single person has ever been sent to prison for violating an Canadian Human Rights Tribunal ruling…
Except for those convicted of ‘thought crimes’ under Section 13…
If Marc Lemire wants to retain his Right to Freedom of Speech and let me assure you, he does, then he has no choice but to challenge both the Constitutionality of Section 13 as well as appeal Justice Mosley’s horribly flawed and biased Federal Court decision.
3. It is critical for Freedom of Speech that Section 13 be denounced as an affront to our Charter Right to Freedom of Speech and that the Federal Court of Appeals strikes it down as unconstitutional. Why? It will mean the hundreds of cases prosecuted under this law over the past 33 years were unconstitutional prosecutions. More importantly, it will mean the penalties imposed by those unconstitutional convictions are also unconstitutional.
4. If Section 13 is declared unconstitutional, as any unbiased judge must clearly see, then those people suffering under lifetime Freedom of Speech bans could appeal to the court to have those bans removed. If the law is simply repealed (removed from the books) then there is no avenue in Canadian law for those individuals to regain their Right to Freedom of Speech.
5. There are multiple cases currently ‘on hold’ because of Marc Lemire’s case, his Constitutional Challenge of Section 13 and his Federal Court Appeal of Justice Mosley’s decision.
These cases are at both the Tribunal and Federal Court level.
All of the cases currently ‘on hold’ will move forward the second there is a final decision in Lemire’s case.
6. The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal, the body that said itself that Section 13 was unconstitutional, stopped all Section 13 cases pending the outcome of Marc Lemire’s case.
‘… I have also concluded that Section 13(1) in conjunction with Sections 54(1) and (1.1) are inconsistent with Section 2(b) of the Charter [of Rights and Freedoms], which guarantees the freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression. The restriction imposed by these provisions is not a reasonable limit within the meaning of Section 1 of the Charter.’
— Athanasios D. Hadjis’ Decision in Warmouse v. Lemire
7. Repeal of the law does not address all corruption and the inappropriate administration of Section 13. We need a court to examine the spying, lying and conniving of the CHRC and rule that they were out of control in both Marc Lemire’s case and in many other cases.
The stated aims of the Canadian Human Rights Act are remedial, not punitive. The object of the Act is to ‘correct discriminatory behaviour’ not punish.
Is it ‘remedial’ to refuse any and all attempts at mediation? Is it ‘remedial’ to refuse any and all attempts at mediation?
Is it ‘remedial’ to refuse to communicate with the subject of a Human Rights Act complaint?
Is it ‘remedial’ to continue prosecuting a man 8 years after all ‘offending’ documents were removed from the Internet?
No, it is not.
If you despise government bodies telling you what you can and cannot say on the Internet…
If you despise law written for telephone answering machines being applied to all of your internet communications on any internet platform…
If you believe Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act violates your Constitutional Right to Freedom of Speech…
Then please contribute generously to Marc Lemire’s Free Speech Legal Defense Fund so he can continue his appeal and Constitutional Challenge of Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act.
Now that Section 13 has been repealed by Parliament, the CHRC is going to go after me with both guns blazing. Can I count on you to support the cause of freedom? My courageous lawyer Barbara Kulaszka and I have demonstrated what two dedicated freedom fighters can accomplish against overwhelming odds. We have single-handedly and doggedly fought the system and exposed the corrupt underbelly of the ‘Human Rights’ Commission’s racket. I cannot carry on this important fight alone. Your donations literally equal the survival of this case.
Please support Marc Lemire’s Constitutional Challenge of Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act.
Marc Lemire is the only person to beat the CHRC in it’s 33 year history!

John Hagee, and many other evangelical preachers, constantly beat the war drums. Without ceasing, they encourage America’s political leaders to wage non-stop wars of aggressionespecially in the Middle East. They constantly trumpet America’s unconstitutional interventions in the Middle East with terms not unlike those used by militant Muslims. Hagee’s pro-war fanaticism is so extreme one must wonder how much he is being paid by the Israeli lobby. My guess is it’s a bunch.
622×350
John Hagee Selling the Talmudic Zionist Jew war & destruction agenda
to America’s gullible goyim Christians
Much of this Christian war fever is due to a convoluted interpretation of Scriptureespecially prophetic Scripture. While I will leave most of this discussion for another day, let me simply say that whatever God plans to do in regard to the reestablishment of the Davidic Kingdom, it has precious little to do with the atheistic, apostate government currently headquartered in Tel Aviv. And Hagee, himself, teaches apostasy when he declares that Jewish people today have a special covenant with God and do not need to come to faith in Jesus Christ in order to be saved, and when he says that Jesus never even claimed to be Christ (Messiah).
Jesus said, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me.’ (John 14:6 KJV) Now, either Jesus or John Hagee told the truth. I’ll take the word of Jesus. Plus, Mr. Hagee apparently forgot Simon Peter’s confession, which Jesus said was due to a revelation from God the Father, ‘Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.’ (Matthew 16:16 KJV)
So, what is it that Hagee and the rest really want? Perpetual war? Total genocide? A global New World Order with the likes of G.W. Bush or Barack Obama at the helm? What do they really want? Do they really have such an inflated view of themselves that they truly believe that they are going to manipulate what God does or doesn’t do regarding the fulfillment of end time events? Is God their servant? Is God Israel’s servant? Is God America’s servant? Balderdash! God is no man’s (or country’s) servant.
I wonder what these warmonger-preachers think about all the ‘blowback’ from these illegal and immoral wars of aggression that G.W. Bush (and now Barack Obama) has led us into. Not only are these wars provoking people all over the world against us and doing more to recruit volunteers for militant extremists in the Middle East than anything Al Qaeda could do on their own, they are having catastrophic results on missionary work.
Now think this through: these warmongering evangelicals beat the war drums; they encourage the young men from their churches to go off and fight these ‘holy’ wars; they work tirelessly to elect pro-war politicians; and they twist Old Testament Scripture to fit these modern crusades. Then, the politicians whom the warmongers helped elect send the US military to invade, bomb, and kill hundreds of thousands of people, the vast majority of whom are innocent people. After which, these same warmonger-preachers get up in their pulpits and cry and weep about how we need to send missionaries to preach the Gospel to the same people they just got done trying to annihilate.
Exactly who is it that the missionaries are supposed to reach? The ones lucky enough to escape death and destruction from US bombers and drone attacks, I guess. And exactly what is the message our missionaries are supposed to deliver? ‘I’m from America, and I’m here to tell you about the love of God.’ Oh, that is going to play really well with the loved ones of those family members we just destroyed.
I’ve had so many missionaries tell me how difficult it is for them to try to minister to people around the world today; and the chief reason is the bully reputation that America has built over the past several decades.
Furthermore, do these warmongering evangelicals really want to deal with the fact that we now have over 23 veterans and active-duty military personnel committing suicide EVERY DAY? That equates to more fighting men dying from self-inflicted wounds than from wounds received in the wars they are asked to fight. This is a first in US history. Is John Hagee interested in why so many of our fighting men are killing themselves?
Just recently, an Iraq War veteran killed himself and left a sad and compelling suicide-letter explaining why he ended his life. The letter was posted with the family’s permission. This young soldier was engaged in over 400 combat missions as a machine-gunner in the turret of a Humvee. He was also involved in the interrogation of countless Iraqis. In the letter, the soldier said, ‘The simple truth is this: During my first deployment, I was made to participate in things, the enormity of which is hard to describe. War crimes, crimes against humanity. Though I did not participate willingly, and made what I thought was my best effort to stop these events, there are some things that a person simply can not come back from. I take some pride in that, actually, as to move on in life after being part of such a thing would be the mark of a sociopath in my mind. These things go far beyond what most are even aware of.
‘To force me to do these things and then participate in the ensuing coverup is more than any government has the right to demand. Then, the same government has turned around and abandoned me. They offer no help, and actively block the pursuit of gaining outside help via their corrupt agents at the DEA. Any blame rests with them.’
The distraught soldier went on to say, ‘Is it any wonder then that the latest figures show 22 veterans killing themselves each day? That is more veterans than children killed at Sandy Hook, every single day. Where are the huge policy initiatives? Why isn’t the president standing with those families at the state of the union? Perhaps because we were not killed by a single lunatic, but rather by his own system of dehumanization, neglect, and indifference.
‘It leaves us to where all we have to look forward to is constant pain, misery, poverty, and dishonor. I assure you that, when the numbers do finally drop, it will merely be because those who were pushed the farthest are all already dead.
‘And for what? Bush’s religious lunacy? Cheney’s ever growing fortune and that of his corporate friends? Is this what we destroy lives for?’
See the report and the soldier’s complete suicide-letter: Iraq Vet Kills Himself After Being Ordereed To Commit War Crimes
What was the soldier’s lament? He was forced to commit war crimes and crimes against humanity. He was forced by the government to cover up these crimes. His government abandoned him in his hour of need. His pain and guilt was more than he could bear. The soldier’s own words were that his was ‘Not suicide, but a mercy killing.’
Mr. Hagee and the rest of you warmongering evangelicals out there, is this soldier’s suicide (and the suicides of over 23 active-duty and military veterans every day) what you had in mind when you beat the drums for America’s undeclared, unconstitutional wars of aggression? This young soldier saw the reality of these wars up close and personaland he didn’t like what he saw. And don’t try to brush this off by saying it’s always been this way. No it hasn’t! We didn’t have suicides like this during World War I or World War II. Whatever the politics back then was or wasn’t, those were lawfully declared wars in which our men knew what they were fighting for. They went in; they fought; they came home.
The war we are fighting in the Middle East is now America’s longest war, and there is no end in sight. Bush and Obama have made perpetual war an official US policy. In addition, this ‘War on Terror’ has transformed the American people from citizens into suspectsevery last one of us. Military drones by the tens of thousands are, or soon will be, flying over the skies of America. The American citizenry is being spied on relentlessly. Two super spy centers are currently being built: one in southern Utah and one near San Antonio, Texas.
These super spy centers are designed primarily to spy on the American people. Liberties once protected by the Constitution and Bill of Rights are now publicly and blatantly abused. And evangelicals such as John Hagee say nary a word of protest. Instead, they continue to support and promote this so-called ‘War on Terror.’ At what cost, Mr. Hagee? At what cost?
Hundreds of thousands of innocents are being killed; animosity against the United States is growing exponentially; in an effort to keep our country at war, our economy is being overburdened and overtaxed to the point of no return; in the name of the ‘War on Terror,’ America is on the verge of becoming a giant police state; we are inciting China and Russia into nuclear war; and America’s military veterans are killing themselves more frequently than are enemy bullets. Is this what you want, Mr. Hagee? Is this really what you want?

Dear Free Speech Supporters,
It certainly is encouraging news to hear that the Senate has finally passed third-reading on Bill C-304 and put the draconian Big Brother Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act out of its misery once and for all.
My heart goes out to all of those Canadians who have suffered under this Bolshevik-inspired Orwellian piece of legislation planted in the Canadian Human Rights Act by the Zionist Jew lobbies here in Canada in order to censor and silence any deserved criticism of both the rogue state of Israel and its racist, supremacist ideology known as Zionism. Too many Canadians have been forced and coerced over the past quarter century or longer to suffer extreme stress and duress at the hands of those within the ‘Human Rights’ commissions and and tribunals who treated anyone accused of these so-called ‘hate crimes’ with utter disdain and dragged them through the equivalent of the Soviet Stalinist ‘Show Trials’ convicting everyone and forcing many to pay exorbitant fines plus imposing bans on their right to express themselves on the Internet and elsewhere.
What we now need to see is some form of restitution paid to all the victims and an apology from the federal and provincial governments for having treated their citizens in such a shabby, dictatorial fashion for so long.
We can only hope and pray that now that this repressive Stalinist law is a dead duck that more Canadians will find the courage and the will to speak out about the undue influence that these foreign lobbyist organizations are having on our legal and social structures not to mention our foreign policies and the environment degradation that increases with each passing day.
The only avenue available now for these same control-freak forces who have relied on section 13 to stop open discussion of Israeli war crimes and Zionist involvement within the media, government, banking and corporations will be to charge Canadians under section 319(2) of the Canadian Criminal Code, the very same section that the two complainants used in order to have me arrested back on May 16th, 2012 and charged with willfully promoting hatred against ‘people of the Jewish religion or ethnic group’. This will undoubtedly make it a much tougher row for the Zionists to hoe given the stringent conditions currently in place in the Criminal Code that allow for various defences, including speaking the TRUTH.
For today though let’s raise a cup and give a toast to the Conservative government for having done what neither the Liberals nor the NDP would ever have ventured to do.
Sincerely

http://canadianhumanrightscommission.blogspot.ca/2013/06/section-13-has-been-repealed-media.html

Yesterday, the Senate of Canada passed Conservative MP’s Private Members Bill Bill C-304, which repeals the notorious censorship provision, Section 13 of the Canadian ‘Human Rights’ Act. Late last night, the Bill became law and received Royal Assent. As of today, there will never be a new Section 13 complaint ever again! The outstanding Section 13 cases have just won a huge battle, but the war is not yet over.
Section 13 makes it an offence to ‘likely’ ‘expose’ privileged groups to ‘hatred and/or contempt.’ There are NO defences under Section 13! Even truth and intent are considered irrelevant to a finding of discrimination. The law was enacted in 1977 in order to silence a man named John Ross Taylor for messages he recorded onto his telephone answering machine. In the intervening 32 years, not a single person who has been hauled up on Section 13 charges has ever been acquitted a 100% conviction rate. Section 13 has been used and abused since its inception.
Testimony on Bill C-304
Several people testified on June 25, 2013 before the Standing Senate Committee on Human Rights. Most of the testimony was nauseating and not worth spending a second watching. But there were two stand outs, which are worth watching.
First is the presentation by Cara Zwibel of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association. The CCLA supports a repeal of Section 13 and Cara Zwibel testifies about freedom of expression and why it is so important in Canada.

The second is a very short clip of Professor Richard Moon talking about Mark Steyn and the Macleans case. His comments on Mark Steyn and linking him to Anders Breivik are something else. Readers might remember Richard Moon as the CHRC’s hand-picked ‘expert’ on Section 13 who submitted a report which called for a repeal of Section 13 (then he disappeared with his $50,000 cheque). Of course the CHRC immediately dumped his report and pulled a ‘mulligan’ to produce a report that said exactly what they wanted.

DAVID AKIN | PARLIAMENTARY BUREAU CHIEF
OTTAWA An Alberta MP has succeeded in his bid to repeal a section of the Canadian Human Rights Act long seen by free-speech advocates as a tool to squelch dissenting opinions.
Conservative MP Brian Storseth saw the Senate give third and final reading late Wednesday to his Bill C-304 which repeals Section 13 of the Human Rights Act, an act that had been used to, among other things, attack the writings of Sun News Network’s Ezra Levant and Maclean’s columnist Mark Steyn.
Section 13 ostensibly banned hate speech on the Internet and left it up to the quasi-judicial human rights commission to determine what qualified as ‘hate speech.’
But, unlike a court, there was no presumption of innocence of those accused of hate speech by the commission.
Instead, those accused had to prove their innocence.
With elimination of Section 13, producing and disseminating hate speech continues to be a Criminal Code violation but police and the courts will adjudicate rather than human rights tribunals.
Storseth drafted his bill in 2011 and enjoyed support from the highest levels in cabinet.
‘Our government believes Section 13 is not an appropriate or effective means for combating hate propaganda,’ Justice Minister Rob Nicholson said in late 2011. ‘We believe the Criminal Code is the best vehicle to prosecute these crimes.’
Last summer, Storseth’s bill cleared the House of Commons in a free vote and, now that it’s through the Senate, it will get royal assent and Section 13 should soon disappear.

As I write this I am still only being updated by text message on the proceedings in the Senate chamber but I am told Bill C-304 has passed third reading and will receive Royal Assent tonight making it law.
What does this bill do?
There are a number of amendments to the act that help limit abuse but the main one is this:
2. Section 13 of the Act is repealed.
To put it bluntly, the means you can’t take someone through the federal human rights apparatus over hurt feelings via a blog post or a Facebook comment.
Now the bill is passed and will become law but like many acts of Parliament it will not come into force for a year.
Still after a long hard battle to restore free speech in Canada, this is a victory.
Here is the section of the act as it now stands, soon to be just a memory.
13. (1) It is a discriminatory practice for a person or a group of persons acting in concert to communicate telephonically or to cause to be so communicated, repeatedly, in whole or in part by means of the facilities of a telecommunication undertaking within the legislative authority of Parliament, any matter that is likely to expose a person or persons to hatred or contempt by reason of the fact that that person or those persons are identifiable on the basis of a prohibited ground of discrimination.
· Marginal note:Interpretation
(2) For greater certainty, subsection (1) applies in respect of a matter that is communicated by means of a computer or a group of interconnected or related computers, including the Internet, or any similar means of communication, but does not apply in respect of a matter that is communicated in whole or in part by means of the facilities of a broadcasting undertaking.
· Marginal note:Interpretation
(3) For the purposes of this section, no owner or operator of a telecommunication undertaking communicates or causes to be communicated any matter described in subsection (1) by reason only that the facilities of a telecommunication undertaking owned or operated by that person are used by other persons for the transmission of that matter.

The Obama Administration Prepares a ‘Marshall Plan’ to Reconstruct Syria, But Not for the Syrians
War by Another Name in Syria
by FRANKLIN LAMB
Beirut.
June 20, 2013
The Group of Eight leaders meeting in Lough Erne, Northern Ireland, having called for an international conference on the ongoing crisis in Syria to be held ‘as soon as possible’ could not agree on much else that might end the civil war anytime soon there. The White House now is reportedly in private agreement with Russia and Iran that the Assad government will remain in power until next year’s election.
Consequently, an 18 month old US-led Plan B has been dusted off by the Obama administration according to Washington Congressional and Beirut diplomatic sources. If successful, there is growing confidence among pro-Zionist neocons in Congress that while Syrian regime-change has failed for several reasons that thwarted the Gulf funded military campaign, Syria can still be brought to heel through an economic campaign dressed to look, well, down right ‘humanitarian.’
The term ‘equivalent of the Marshall Plan’ is being employed by some in the White House and Pentagon this month to describe a proposed large-scale ‘humanitarian rescue program’ being prepared for Syria, according to some Western diplomats based in Lebanon.
However, the 1948 Marshall Plan (officially the European Recovery Program or ERP) was an American program to aid Europe, through which the United States provided $13 billion, in today’s monetary terms, approximately 100 billion dollars of economic support, to help rebuild European economies devastated by war.
With respect to Syria, the ‘equivalent of the Marshall Plan’ currently being finalized is very different from what General George |C. Marshall explained to his Harvard University audience, 66 years ago this month, when he announced the post WW II initiative.
The planned project to conquer Syria amounts to 19th century economic imperialism as a means to achieve control of Syria by hijacking its economy while shielding Israel from the rising tide of protests in this region, as armed groups across the spectrum are beginning to focus on directly confronting the Zionist theft and continuing occupation of Palestine.
What Washington has in mind constitutes an attempt to gain control over Syria by controlling its economy via contracts for rebuilding the country and ‘lending’ the hoped for post-Assad Syrian government as much as 300 billion dollars to be secured by Syrian assets. IMF economists estimate the value of the public sector in Syria, exceeds half a trillion dollars. Under the US-led plan, creditors can take control of ownership of the public sector if Syria accepts the plan for pledges to secure debt. The buyers of the debt will be largely American and indirectly Israeli businessmen as well as from the Gulf. Qatar specifically is gambling on this plan, to work with ‘international parties’, to immerse Syria in debt, and then drive the country to sell the private sector at a very small fraction of their true values.
Some who are warning against the scheme point out that Syrians are capable of rebuilding their own country and have the labor force and raw materials to do it. Foreign aid will be welcomed by the Syrian government but not at the price of ceding the Arab Syrian Republic to a new western crafted economic order. What is hidden in the war on Syria is reported to be much bigger than has been divulged to date, and involves winding down the military actions in favor of economic aggression against the Syrian population which the layers of US sanctions to date is just a harbinger.
In this context, according to Western Diplomatic sources, the US government and some Gulf countries have tried to bribe Rami Makhlouf, a cousin of Syria’s President, to break with the government and leave the country. Some other well-known figures have also been offered large sums of cash to break ranks. Last month, one prominent Syrian nationalist who works with the government told this observer of receiving a $50 million dollar offer to defect and leave Syria. The official rejected the bribe and ridiculed the government that made the offer by explaining that as proud Syrian nationalists, no amount of money would break the sacred bond between Syrians and their country.
Rami Makhlouf copy
With respect to Mr. Maklouf, he did not react to being placed on the US Treasury Department’s ‘Specially Designated Nationals’ (SDN) list which blocks assets and prohibits, under severe penalties, U.S. citizens from dealing with them, nor did he dignify an American clemency offer with even a reply. Rather he has maintained his steadfast support for Syria in the face of several attempts to assassinate him as well as targeting him, as a leader of the Syrian business community, with American orchestrated (OFAC) defamatory media campaigns, to pressure President Bashar al-Assad to break with him. Rather than rejecting Syria for American offers of protection, Makhlouf channeled much of his assets for the benefit of domestic charities and rehabilitative projects, providing jobs for the unemployed and loans for small investors as well as ‘at cost’ family housing for many of the internally displaced. This initiative continues. Makhlouf has provided his borse shares in the largest telecommunications companies in Syria to charity associations in order to insure financial independence and resources that the Authority can rely upon, to ease somewhat, the devastating effects on the current crisis on the Syrian civil society.
According to analysts among the Western diplomatic corps in Beirut, many wealthy Syrian capitalists fell into the U.S. trap, wherein SDN economic sanctions prompted them to leave Syria and defect from the regime. The United States and its European partners continue to wage an economic war against Syria by imposing crippling sanctions which are affecting the lives of ordinary citizens in many ways from food and fuel costs to medical care.
Why Rami Makhlouf and other strong nationalists in Syria’s business community are being targeted as a prelude to fully launching the US-led ‘Syrian Marshall Plan’ is that their bonds with Syria as well as their business acumen are blocking the Western scheme because they provide the Syrian government with much needed additional financial strength to rebuild Syria, in cooperation with other countries, but without being subject to the economically fatal conditions the US-led plan envisages. Many in the financial and academic community view the proposed SMP plan as nearly certain to hold the Syrian economy hostage to foreigners for scores of years.
The US Treasury Department considers Makhlouf and others like him in the Syrian business community as fully capable, if allowed, of helping Syria’s government to collect huge sums from international investors to help rebuild Syria without being subject to Western domination.
‘The anti-Mahhlouf black propaganda campaign, according to a Washington DC source familiar with the intensified preparations, commented that the SMP was designed to include a wide ranging assault in the visual and written media, audio, as well as in the electronic media: ‘Almost certainty funded by Qatar and Saudi Arabia, both of which like their western partners who are actually constructing the SMP project, view Makhlouf as a key obstacle to realizing their plans to hijack and control the Syrian economy as part of a soft war, whereby the US and its allies, western and middle eastern, controls Arab economies while keeping US boots off the grounds of Arabia or spending more US treasure in this region.’
Targeting Rami Makhlouf, and other Syrian businessmen by Qatari media and other Arabic paid media outlets, is designed to hit Syria economically, because weakening the Syrian economic security at its core, is a more certain path, than endless military campaigns, to quickly smash the state. Makhlouf and his colleagues are seen as preventing this.
The ultimate goal of Qatar and certain Gulf countries, with US complicity, is not just expanding their investments in this region, as much as Doha is intent on connecting the Arab world to the American-Zionist axis politically and economically. The speed with which Israeli, Gulf, and Western businessmen showed up at the Corinthian, Radisson and Rixos hotels in Tripoli, Libya, literally within days of the murder of Moammar Qaddafi, ‘to help rebuild this country’ is instructive on these same interests seeking to control a war damaged country by removing obstacles. Indeed, Russian intelligence reported at the time that the salafists who apprehended Qaddafi in Serte on October 20, 2011, as he attempted to flee, received verbal instructions from a Gulf country (UAE) to kill him in order to eliminate competition for dominating the Libyan economy and to silence those who might torpedo their best laid plans.
The targeting of Mr. Rami Makhlouf and dozens of like-minded Syrian businessmen, who refused to abandon their country, continues. Yet today, like thousands of other Syrian volunteers including the approximately 10,000 who work with the Syrian Arab Red Crescent Society (SARCS) their time and resources serve their country in order to lessen the suffering of the civilian population. They have stood firm and did not flee, as did some corrupt former supporters and officials of the government.
This week, Syria’s President put the goal of the Marshall Plan for Syria succinctly, without identifying it, ‘What is happening in Syria is a project for those states to push a non-submissive state towards the brink and to look for a new president who says ‘yes’ (to their orders). They have not found and they will not find one in the future,’ Assad stressed while adding, ‘The interference is a blatant violation of international law and the sovereignty of this country; they (western states and their Gulf allies) want to destabilize the country and spread chaos and backwardness.’

[Update on this post as of June 20th, 20:22 p.m. I just recently learned from an email from Marc Lemire that the Senate has referred Bill C-304 to committee so nothing is going to happen on it any time soon. More Zionist subterfuge taking place it seems.]
[Editor’s Note: Not wishing to sound too optimistic that this scurrilous, draconian piece of Zionist-inspired legislation (sec. 12 of the Canadian Human Rights Act); one that’s been used for decades now to harass and imprison and punish and silence those Canadians who believe that freedom of speech is their inherent right will actually be wiped off the slate of Canadian jurisprudence once and for all, it is by far as close as we’ve come to seeing its final demise.
Of course those who may be about to put an end to this malicious, mean-spirited section of the CHR Act would do so right after having passed another Orwellian law that would give the police the right to pre-emptively arrest any protestor who happened to be wearing a mask during any ‘illegal’ protest in Canada. It appears that while one hand is giving the other is taking away.
Section 13 is, of course, the scandalous legislation which my (and all of Canada’s) two arch free speech enemies have been using to harass and intimidate me for the past 6 years of my and my wife’s life, using this deceptive Zionist subterfuge to drag Canada’s erstwhile believers in free speech through endless and interminable quasi-judicial labyrinths of ‘human rights’ commissions and tribunals where Truth is no defense and the commissars of politically correct correspondence on the Internet held free reign to make up the rules as they went along constantly torturing their victims with unceasing, convoluted and specious rules and regulations that defied both logic and common sense.
We can only hope that they will finally kill this Leninist/Bolshevik-inspired legislation and give those of us who are still battling on other fronts at least the knowledge that one of Canada’s anti-democratic ‘hate crime’ laws is now history.
What must be remembered though is that the Jewish lobbyists here in Canada, especially those directly associated with the secretive, masonic ‘Jews only’ B’nai Brith Canada, are hell-bent on transferring over their sec. 13 ‘hate crime’ laws to Canada’s criminal code where this same type of zio-communist thinking will be incorporated into Sec. 319(2) of the Criminal Code of Canada. This is the section of the CCC under which these same two control freaks laid their most recent complaint against me and Radical Press back in 2011 that resulted in my arrest and incarceration in May of 2012. That battle is still currently underway with my next court appearance slated for July 9th, 2013.
All ‘hate crime’ laws are the creation of the Zionist Jews who have been working overtime for decades to install them in every nation around the world in order to mask their own deceptive actions throughout history. Without this knowledge of why these weird laws are being pushed through in nation after nation it becomes virtually impossible to connect their purpose with everyday existence. It’s the ultimate ploy of the haters doing their damnedest to mask their own deeds by twisting truth and freedom of expression into distorted legislation that ultimately only benefits the Zionist Jews. This is what makes the recent anti-mask legislation so ironic.
Still, if we can eliminate sec. 13 from the overall censorship equation then that will free up people to begin focusing in on their new challenge to free speech which undoubtedly will be sec. 319(2) of Canada’s criminal code. It will be here in my case that we will see it become the ‘showcase’ of how the censorship conspirators will attempt to subvert and distort sec. 319(2) so as to make truth, etc. unjustifiable reasons for telling it like it is and thus continue their plotting and scheming and covering up of historic facts and lies in order to protect themselves from the ultimate revelation of their own misfeasance.
Given that I am still without legal counsel necessary to fight this further encroachment upon free speech it only makes the process that much more glaringly unjust.]
P.S. I’ve edited out the other bills mentioned in this article. Please go to the original piece in order to read the full text of the story.

Conservative Senate prepared to sit into July in order to drive a final stake through the heart of Sec. 13 aka hate speech Bill C-304
By Jordan Press,
Postmedia News
June 19, 2013
OTTAWA — Conservatives in the Senate say they are willing to sit into July — past June 28 when the upper chamber is scheduled to start its break — to pass five government bills, and possibly two contentious bills from backbench Tory MPs.
It isn’t unusual for the Senate to sit longer than the House of Commons to clear the legislative backlog left when MPs take their breaks. This year, however, the Senate may sit into July to pass two private member’s bills: One about union finances (bill C-377) and the other about hate speech (bill C-304).
‘The human rights bill has been before the Senate since last June. There’s no plausible argument for not dealing with the human rights bill,’ said government Senate leader Marjory LeBreton.
Bill C-304, a second private member’s bill, was passed in the Commons in a free vote last summer. The bill, if approved, would repeal sections of the Canadian Human Rights Act banning hate speech on the Internet and put more investigative powers in the hands of the courts rather than the quasi-judicial human rights commission.
On Wednesday, about 20 government bills were sworn into law during a royal assent ceremony in the Senate chamber, including one that makes it illegal to wear a mask at a protest. Under the new law, wearing a mask at an unlawful protest is punishable by a jail term of up to 10 years. The law also allows police to pre-emptively arrest protesters who wear facial coverings.
Whenever the summer break begins, the Senate will go into the summer with the air of scandal continuing to hang over it. An audit of Sen. Pamela Wallin’s travel spending is expected to be submitted in late July and made public by early August, and the RCMP are conducting a criminal investigation into a $90,000 payment Sen. Mike Duffy received from Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s former chief of staff, Nigel Wright.
The RCMP has also been probing the housing claims of Duffy and senators Mac Harb and Patrick Brazeau to see if a criminal investigation is warranted. Harb has taken the Senate to court over the upper chamber’s decision that his claims were improper, while Brazeau has until June 28 to repay about $49,000.
