The Ly’n King of the VPD

 

 

Constable Brian Montague

Media Relations Officer

 

 

N.B.:  

Shortly after I published this post Constable Montague replied and said he wasn’t going to deal with me any more. He also advise the above picture is not him and asked me to remove it. 

I replied:

As far as the picture goes I got it from Google Images after a search for ​"Constable Brian Montague VPD" and all the pics with that name are that guy.

I said you're a liar and I'm more inclined to believe Google. The picture stays until you can provide another. I suggest you call Google and complain or provide me with another that you approve of. Until then, the picture stays as is!

 

 

 

Greetings again Constable Montague:

I am truly disappointed that you have failed to contact me. You made the mistake of putting your direct telephone number (Brian Montague T: 604-717-2807 ) at the bottom of your reply to my questions to the Mayor, the Chief and you about why the raids on the Jim’s Weeds Dispensaries and the SWAT team tactics used with no justification.

 

A reply from a Media Relations Officer was completely unexpected. I may only be a Blogger (http://goan-smee.blogspot.ca/) but I like to think of myself as half-assed decent Investigative Journalist asking a lot more relevant questions than the National Media lot who claim the title.

 

I replied to you and informed you who I was, the reasons for my complaint, and advised you I would phone you the next day tenth of September and did!

 

I have now phoned you twice, requested a return call, left my phone number and waited. Dead silence for over a week. Why did you bother to reply? I never expected one. If it was a compliment for the “fascinating approach”, Thank you!

If that was the only reason and you had no intentions of answering any questions then Fuck You! I truly wanted to deal with a Cop Mentality first hand. I have a degree in Psychology but no experience with the Abnormal.

 

I don’t want to talk any more because another Cop has a looser mouth than yours and disclosed what’s up. I was told by a VPD drug squad member that they are actively investigating all the clubs and dispensaries (prioritizing based on community complaints) by sending in undercovers to see if medical diagnosis is required as well as if minors are able to purchase. So it is advised that these protocols be adhered to.

 

Which brings me back to Jim’s Weeds and no probable cause and a couple of questions that you will never answer because your primary function is damage control and you would not be in your position if you were not a very skilled professional liar and distorter of the truth.

 

Your primary function is to put a lid on the problem until it goes away. The misuse of the exemptions in the Access to Information Act allows you to declare that there is an investigation in process and then claim any disclosure of information could damage the result. There is no time limit on investigations and given enough time the video showing the three cops beating the shit out the woman in the wheelchair will be forgotten and no answers or explanation are required.

Unfortunately no-one will ever find out what was accomplished by raiding Jim’s.

From the news reports Some unknown source complained that there was some unknown customer who was buying very cheap pot from Jim, and then in defiance of Jim’s rules, reselling to unknown youth in the neighbourhood. Jim did nothing but sell to a qualified customer.

If that was true there was no probable cause. But I will never find out, it’s under investigation and you would never answer truthfully answer questions like:

1. Did you have a warrant based on these anonymous allegations? I doubt it!
2. Did you find anything incriminating during the raid? I doubt it?
3. Were any unlicensed or under age customers present? No!

If there had been Jim would still be in jail!

4. What did you find that justifiged seizure of the shop’s contents?
5. Was there a probable cause for that? I doubt it!
6. What evidence did you get from the pot plants you seized?
7. Did you return them before they died? I doubt it?
8. Quite obviously you never discovered any evidence of a crime or there would have long since been charges:
9. Have you returned all the seized products? I doubt it!
10.  Are you going to try to charge Jim for storage? Probably: he’s got no place to put since you bastards forced him out of business.

Jim was an example of what all Dispensary owners should be: the best of the whole lot. He was damned near a saint to his customers. He was a source of accurate information about Medical Marijuana use. He could determine what your condition needed and recommend something that would help relieve the symptoms you were having! He could tell you the genetics of the source and for many of them a verifiable estimate of its cannabinoid ratio and content.

His only crime was selling the best and cheapest pot in Vancouver (at times as low as $3/g. for poor people) and probably in Canada by running an online supply line to other poverty stricken victims from coast to coast. The VPD busted Jim just as the Halifax Nazi’s are currently busting Christopher Enns and Farm Assist for persecution on a technicality.

I think I’ve run out of steam so I’ll leave you to stew in your own juice. It’s actions like yours that have turned all police in North America into potential enemies of the public at large. This is being published as a warning never to trust a cop or tell them anything. To do so puts your rights and freedom at risk!

Now I Wait For You To Knock on My Door

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION, IS THERE ANY?

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION,
IS THERE ANY?

No, and the Cops are Taking Advantage of That!

In keeping with my policy of wanting to put more through this grinder of Information to keep you informed here is what was supposed to be the first short post that will only be announced on Google+ and FB. My advisory letter will only be sent for my major contributions. Anytime anyone tunes in here I hope to have something new to make you question our universe.

This is to clue you in on upcoming material topics I am working on. FOI to start!

This first one started with the seizure of all Dr. Rob Kamermans patients’ files regarding Medical Marijuana. I watched the development and handling of the case and selected Sergeant Mark Duval as the Chief culprit in the whole damned mess and I set out to get him punished. I haven’t managed to do it yet but I’m still alive!

My first attempt at to get him strung by the nuts was a Complaint to the Office of the Independent Police Review Director. That established that Sergeant Duval was guilty of Criminal Negligence under Section 219 of the Criminal Code by intentionally holding those file and causing harm to their owners. The crime is still in process, he holds the files to no purpose today and will not release them.

That failed quickly: A clerk read my complaint; noted that the date of the Complaint was older than the six months but failed to note the crime was still in process. She accordingly wrote a letter advising me the Director had decided to refuse on the Age grounds. She made the mistake of not having the brains to get the director to sign his refusal but ended it with a one squiggle signature, Her name and Title.

I do not die that easily!

For my second attempt I wrote a reply To Director Gerry McNeilly that wasn’t too tactful. I asked him to review the clerical error Override her decision and begin an investigation of the Section 219 charges I was alleging. I further requested that since the crime is still in process could he please contact the OPP and get them to immediately order Sergeant Duval to release the files!

I got an almost immediate reply signed by the Director refusing to grant my appeal, with no other comment re the file release. It was short, terse and about what I expected. I concluded he was surprised by my appeal and the failure to honour him with appropriate language in a deferential tone to a man in his position.

WHO IS THIS GUY?

Who the hell are you to deny me my complaint because I hurt your feelings? I accused your staff of skipping a critical fact when they read my complaint and your nose is out of joint? Why? Because they didn't think you were important enough to bother to get a signature and acted in your role to be the scribbler.

What now?  Well I checked Mr. Mc Neilly out and he’s an old fart Jamaican immigrant. Surprise Surprise. The Master who treated me like a nigger is a nigger. Well that nigger has a master somewhere and I stated looking and found that Mr. McNeilly’s appointment as Director was a mistake made by the Attorney-General- On to Top Dog.

Here we go again. I composed a complaint to the Attorney-General of Ontario and requested a review of Director McNeilly’s second decision because the reason for denial was late submission of my application but the second intentionally ignores the fact that he was now dealing, as we still are with a “Crime In Process”

 

I asked to get copies of all the contents of my Complaint File at the OIPRD. I wanted to see just what when on with the denial; I received an acknowledgement of receipt and since then I have been patient and waited.

That should get some reaction. It did: But not what I had expected.

The other day I got a lovely Expresspost as my reply from The Attorney- General and when I opened it I found a cover letter and a thin attachment of Documents accompanied by a ¼” thick submission package of more.

The cover letter advised the thin attachment was all the documents they could supply me from my file at OIPRD. Nothing but what I had sent and what they had sent me:

1.    My Request for an Investigation

2.    The Director’s first decision with the Clerical Signature

3.    My Complaint and Request for Review to the Director

4.    The Director’s decision his first one was correct.

W!T!F!

The cover advised that this is all that they could provide because it concerned a matter involving an Investigation: and under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act nothing could be disclosed.

This whole bloody thing just went TILT

Having received the Ministry's reply to my complaint about Director McNeilly: I do not understand the diversion of my complaint to The Information and Privacy Commissioner/Ont. I have however followed the instructions and the referral is now en route to him.

I do not understand the redirection because my complaint is not about the blatant invasion of privacy involved in the examination of the contents of 4100 medically confidential patient files.

I had not planned to contact the IPC because I thought he would have already been aware of the problem from all the front page coverage in Ontario. If the IPC wasn't aware he now is. Good. Maybe he will actually do something to get the files released. McNeilly wouldn't.

To my understanding the Information and Privacy Commissioner has no power to override a decision of the Director and no authority to do any investigation into the Criminal Negligence of a bunch of rogue cops. I was under the impression that since the Attorney General appoints the Director, he might also have the authority to call him to task when he screws up.

This is not a minor offence: it's Intentional Criminal Negligence by the whole OPP Chain of Command aided and abetted by the Director. Mr. McNeilly knew full well the crime was still ongoing but ignored the fact and denied my appeal on the basis of the six month rule. It was the easy way out and avoided a nasty investigation of a shameful vindictive persecution of 4100 sick people for no reason except Sergeant Duval considered them all a bunch of druggies and decided to punish them. He has done so by holding all the medical information required by the druggies to renew their licenses for both possession and growth until past the renewal date. Sergeant Duval knew full well he was breaking the law but that the OIPRD, his superiors, and brothers would cover his ass even if an investigation was ordered.

This has to change and with common sense change is possible. I am now waiting my reply from the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario and I made a point of questioning her authority to investigate Criminal Behaviour and get the Criminals charged; or does privacy override investigation of Duval’s Intentional Negligence causing a great deal of harm.

To be continued if and when I get some more answers. Stay tuned.

CHANGES IN PROCESS FOR OUR DOMESTIC DOOMSDAY

Even Harpo’s Right Wing Buddies Disapprove

April 1, 2014:

I’m going to start posting more often but probably in smaller pieces with more variety. I am finding it very hard to assemble all the material to support a post of a thousand words which unfortunately; for you my readers; is about average for me. In the time it takes to assemble the material for a good critical analysis I think that in the course of a couple of weeks work on an article, I can also produce a lot of one paragraph commentaries about all the weird stuff that is going on in our buggered up society!

There’s no shortage of material to work with in my priority subjects

 My Advocacy of Marijuana and as an Ethical Critic

Harper the Hun and his Horde!: Our Duplicitous Dickhead Doctors!:

Our Sick System of Justice and its criminal Canadian Cops,

And last but not least:

Our Apathetic Press and Public.

A few of the related but yet unrelated questions will be:

1.    What’s going on with Harpo and crowd?

2.    Will they ease up on their prosecution plans as MacKay suggested?

3.    Today he hinted that they might have made a mistake with their Afghanistan invasion? How many killed in consequence?

4.    A new piece of bullshit nearly everyday to comment on.

5.    What are these goddamn doctors up to?

6.    What kind of role will they Play: Authoritarian Dictator or a Treatment Advisor?

7.    Is there a standardized Prescription form for them to use?

8.    Why is the whole judiciary afraid of the Cops? The entire Crown: the Judges, the Prosecution and the whole legal system permit them to perjure themselves at will.

9.    Cops are trained liars in their role as investigators but there is no deterrent or consequence when bear they witness and lie at trial in order to convict an innocent man.

10.                       Mr. Arsehole Gerry McNeilly:The Director of the Office of Independent Police Review is a loser and I’m never going to forgive that token nigger for treating me like one! I complained of a crime against 4100 people and he won’t admit a mistake by a Clerk and effectively told me to F Off in bureaucratese language!

11.                       How can we wake up the public and get Journalists off their asses to actually investigate a few of their headlines, and tell the public about the deceit of our authorities?

On and on. There’s tons of fat to fry and I hope you enjoy the change in diet!

I will. I like ranting!

These Cops Are Criminals!

“Four Complaints about Transparency and

Bullshit Bureaucracy”

Smee again:

Thursday I mailed a Complaint to:

The Independent Police Review Director of Ontario.

Today I e-mailed a complaint to:

The Honourable Rob Nicholson,

Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada

about the matter

and to this

I attached a copy of: my complaint to

The Honourable John Gerretsen

Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Ontario

and

to this I attached a copy of:

My Cover Letter and My complaint to

The Independent Police Review Director of Ontario.

I have no idea how this Director got involved here:

These turkeys horned right into the middle of my problem dealing with a

Federal Criminal Code Violation!

Where the hell a group of Ontario does based provincially appointed

political hacks with a pro-cop bias gets the authority to interfere

with my charging a bunch of Cops with a Federal Crime?

I decided to find out.

If you don’t ask you don’t get!

This post is simply a copy of those e-mails and the Cover Letter. I did not include the text of my complaint to the Director because I have previously established the grounds for the charge of Criminal Negligence with my post at the bottom of this page         

“A Request for Consideration re a Class Action Lawsuit”

Read on, enjoy a literary exercise in mild sarcasm

Then we wait for the answer to that imponderable mystery:

Can a needle jab from a mouse make an elephant fart???

Here’s a dose of reality!

A Question Regarding Criminal Code Enforcement

The Honourable Robert Douglas Nicholson
Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada
284 Wellington Street
Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H8
CC: Justin Trudeau- Liberal Party of Canada: Thomas Mulcair- New Democratic Party: Elizabeth May- Green Party of Canada: Alain Prefontaine - Director General and Senior General Counsel

Dear Minister:

Attached please find a copy of my Complaint to the Office of the Independent Police Review Director of Ontario and a copy of my Complaint to the Ontario Minster of Justice. They regardsa serious violation of Criminal Code Section 219 – Criminal Negligence by the Ontario Provincial Police on January 26, 2012. I am advised this is the only route by which I can get an investigation of what I assumed to be a Federal Crime is to ask a Provincially appointed Review Director who will have complete control over any investigation of Criminal Wrongdoing by Ontario Police Forces and his decision is final.

They advise me that:

1. “The OIPRD is responsible for recording and classifying all public complaints. We are also responsible for deciding who will investigate the complaint. Your complaint may be investigated by: The OIPRD, The same police service the complaint is about, or another police service.”

2.      If, during the course of the investigation, the Director discovers evidence that an officer may have committed a crime, the matter will be referred to the police for further investigation.

3.      The OIPRD does not conduct criminal investigations.

4. The OIPRD does not deal with discipline, disciplinary hearings or appeals on policy and service complaints.
5. They further advise me if I disagree with the result:
6. “The OIPRD is an independent organization and our decision is final”.

Why am I compelled to submit my request for justice to a bunch of anonymous political hack appointees who collectively call themselves the Director? I have no idea who they are, probably ex-cops and I have no confidence in the OPP chain of command conducting an impartial investigation and no reason to trust them based on the pro-cop bias previously displayed like G20 and G8 and going nowhere.

The facts are simple and a matter of OPP record that need no further verification: They are all recorded by Sergeant Duval who supervised the SWAT Team that accompanied him on his atrocity of an arrest. Under his direction the OPP seized medical records that are vitally important to their owners and still has them in custody nearly 18 months later. The seizure was common knowledge to the OPP upper ranks and no-one in the chain of command recognized or bothered to point out that they were committing Criminal Negligence under Section 219 of the Criminal Code. Nobody bothered to go to the trouble of telling the criminals to return the documents.

Today, critically ill Medical Marijuana patients still can not access their records if needed for treatment assistance. OPP actions were not only wanton and reckless disregard of the harm they were doing to the 4100 patients who needed them, but intentionally and vindictively designed to prevent renewal of all 4100 licenses by holding the documentation required for their renewals. The OPP simply didn’t give a damn about the pain and agony they were intentionally creating with the recurrence of symptoms that had been under control with their marijuana use.

I don’t understand the Provincial usurpation of Federal authority that appears to have taken place.

Has any Minister of Justice ever agreed to only the OIPRD investigating the Cops with no recourse?

What is happening here? I suspect a whitewash Kangaroo Court by the Blue Brotherhood?

 Please advise if there is any way to evade the dominance of the Police in this matter to avoid having this atrocity classified as a misdemeanor and dropped?

I apologize for the necessity o contacting you with this request but I had no option

In anticipation of your reply.

Respectfully

Blaine Barrett

A Question Regarding the Enforcement of the Criminal Code in Ontario

The Honourable John Gerretsen

Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Ontario

720 Bay Street, 11th Floor
Toronto
M7A 2S9

Dear Minister:

Attached please find

1. a copy of my Complaint to the Office of the Independent Police Review Director of Ontario and
2. a copy of my E-mail to The Honourable Robert Douglas Nicholson- Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada
    

I send this as a courtesy advising this problem because I think you will become involved and you need to know the details in order to answer two simple questions:

The only consequence of any contravention of law by the Police in Ontario is an order to investigate themselves by the OIPRD. That guarantees a whitewash result that will turn their felony into a misdemeanor that calls for a verbal reprimand. The OPP actions in this matter resemble a bunch of sub-humans inflicting pain, aggravation, and punishment on people who are sick, have committed no crime and have no defense against Nazi tactics.

Do they have your permission to act like savages or are they just ignoring the illegality of their persecution?

Can you give me any reassurance they are not going to circular file this complaint like they have with the G20 goons?

I’d appreciate straight answers not modeled on the Harperite Transparency Principles. The Cons deem any and all questions an insult to Fearless Leader and a terrorist attack that renders all answers subject to a No Comment because of National Security concerns.

In anticipation of your response

Sorry to ruin your day.

Cover Letter

Complaint to Office of the Independent Police Review Director

Office of the Independent Police Review Director

655 Bay Street, 10th Floor
Toronto, Ontario
M7A 2T4

Attn: Complaints

Dear Director:

First I must inform you I am submitting this Complaint to you under protest.

I don’t think you have the capacity to achieve the result I want in the time frame I have left in this life. I am commanded to submit the Complaint to you and I don’t understand why I have to submit to an investigation of the Police by the Police. I am lodging a complaint that Section 219 of the Criminal Code of Canada was intentionally ignored and violated by the whole bloody chain of command of the Ontario Provincial Police. No-one is exempt and that includes the Chief of Police/Commissioner of the OPP. He’s letting these criminals run wild. I would prefer a different police force if possible?

I don’t understand you, as a Provincial official, deciding matters of Federal Law. I have read your website thoroughly and by submitting this to your authority I am compelled to accept your decision as to the guilt or innocence based on an investigation of a brother by his Blue Brotherhood. The only other option is to withdraw the Complaint and walk away. I would like clarification of three phases of your advice regarding

How will the OIPRD handle my review?

.

1. The OIPRD will also contact the police to tell them you have requested a review and give them a copy of the form. We will ask the police to send us all the information they have on your complaint.

• What time frame are we looking at? What is the maximum time they can take to respond and provide their documentation?

2. Once we have received your file from the police, we will assess your case and make a decision about it.

·        How long will that take?

3. If we agree you, the OIPRD will give instructions to the Chief of Police/Commissioner of the OPP about your complaint. The police must follow these instructions. We will tell you about our decision and what happens next.

·        What if I disagree with your proposed instructions to Chief of Police/Commissioner of the OPP? Do I have any input or control as to how the investigation should be conducted?

In anticipation of your acknowledgement of Receipt of my complaint:

Best regards

___________
