I have begun to believe my mind is full of tiny little topics that act like pimples.

No one can predict the order they start to fester in, or when they’ll get ripe and burst.

CANADIAN JUSTICE IS JUNK- PART II






THE CANADIAN CONSTABULARY
THE BASTARDS AT FAULT

OR



COPS

THE

Corps Of Prejudiced Sadists

More and more, every day, control of the Law and Order governing the people of Canada is increasingly being usurped by the collective Canadian Police Forces. The average cop has become a personal threat to, and someone to be feared by every individual he confronts. No longer does he Serve and Protect the public: he now serves his masters and Protects his fellow Cops.

The Cop in your face wasn’t born that way: He was born smart; he was probably a good guy until he absorbed the mental and physical brainwashing of his training. He looks decent enough even now. What could have ground and molded him into this hostile enemy at the gate? Who was he and what turned the soul sour? That is a long story but we can we can place the fault directly on the training and regimen of:

THE CANADIAN CONSTABULARY

The Cop Mold Process

Believe it or not, once upon a time all the Cops who are stamping on our civil and legal rights were the good guys of their generation when it came to the NICE Index! They are part of the top 2% of applicants who manage to pass the entrance exam and be accepted into the Force
In order to become a cop an applicant has to pass an entrance examination that is more or less the equivalent of an assessment by three Psychological Tests
1.    California Personality Inventory (CPI),
2.    The Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire Scales (16P), and
3.    The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI)
When used to assess police candidates, analysts developed a
"Typical Cop" profile group with group members found to be:
1.    self-disciplined,
2.    socially bold,
3.    extroverted,
4.    emotionally tough, and
5.    Low in experienced anxiety.
They also ranked significantly higher on scales of:
6.    "Poise and self-assurance,
7.    achievement potential,
8.    intellectual efficiency,
9.    social insight, and
10.                       To be more likely to seek social contact than the control group.”
By any standards this pool of young recruits is an ideal base for any training program and is the cream of the crop. Instead of a positive blossoming to butter the sour cream churned turns rotten. There’s obviously something wrong with the churn: what’s wrong with it?

Constabulary, as I use it, is an organizational structure designed to enforce order in the ranks of a semi-military force. It was developed by the British Army around the time of the Crimean war in the Mid-1800’s and was returned to Britain and created the structure of the Metropolitan Police Force under Sir Robert Peel. Law enforcement officers work in a quasi-military, structured institution. There are mental health concerns associated with working within a "quasi-military structure" and other mental health concerns of working in an "institution."

Military organizations require the sacrifice of the individual for the good of society. The "individual" is not a consideration; the "goal" of the group is paramount. In a military organization, the focus is on punishing the individual if he is not up to standards. It is a de-humanizing process to recognize that you are only valued as a part of a machine.

The “institution' takes the same attitude, only a step further. In an institution, you are locked in a set process and the process is more important many times than, not only the individual, but also the goal. When an officer does a remarkable job of police work, perhaps even saves a life, he can still be reprimanded if he doesn't file the proper paperwork. The paperwork describing an action in many cases is more important to the institution than the action itself. Both the quasi-military nature of police work and the functioning within an institution combine for a mental health situation that is quite undesirable and very stressful. The training academy of the Police Force he is joining is the churn.

This is the recruit’s first introduction to a Constabulary: a Constabulary is a quasi-military, structured institution. Military organizations require the sacrifice of the individual for the good of society. The "individual" is not a consideration; the "goal" of the group is paramount.

In an institution conforming to procedures is paramount and the paperwork describing an action in many cases is more important to the institution than the action itself. No gray areas. The law enforcement officer works in a fact-based world with everything compared to written law. Right and wrong is determined by a standard. They have a set way of going about gathering the proper evidence for the law and can justify their actions because they represent the "good and right”

The first step in this character transformation process is to isolate the individual from all contact with outside society and force him to adjust to his brother police officers for all social contact. ) They are isolated. The wearing of a badge, uniform and gun makes a law officer separate from society. The wearing of a uniform will tend to make any person de-humanize people who are without a uniform. Just wearing a badge or a gun can cause people to act more aggressively.  You are encouraged to feel like you’re a member of an elite group: the top 2%.This is the beginning of inclusion as part of the Blue Brotherhood and police training especially is designed to strip the individual's previous identity and "make" a police officer.

People deal with them differently and treat them differently, even when they are not working. The police uniform, badge and gun are universal symbols of power and authority. When the individual puts on the uniform, he assumes the authority that goes with it. He expects and commands obedience and respect from the public. Donning the uniform and wielding the power of the job contribute to what is known as the "police personality" and the Us versus Them problems that develop from this intensive brainwashing.

After isolation in training, the recruit is further alienated from his prior social circle by being required to work rotating shifts and a posting away from home. Shift work is not normal. The "rotating shift" schedule is very taxing on an officer's life. Our bodies are adjusted on what is called "circadian schedules" which is a repetitive daily cycle. Our bodies like to have a regular eating time, sleeping time, waking time, etc. 

An officer doing shift work never gets a chance to stay on a schedule. This upsets his physical and mental balance in life. The changing work schedule also upsets the routine patterns that are needed in healthy marriage and family development. Strong marital and family development is based on rituals, like dinners together, "inside jokes," repeated activities, etc. The rotating shift worker has less chance to develop these rituals and his relationships suffer. This predisposes the officer's family to potential problems ranging from divorces, to children acting-out. 

The recruit’s new "at work" world is very negative. He sees the bad part of society and even the stress is different. Cops have a different kind of stress in their jobs, called "burst stress". At any time in the course of a shift there can be a call with an indication of violence. The officer gets an adrenalin rush with the perception of danger and there is the inevitable “fight or flight” reaction. There may be no danger but that knowledge follows the mental and physical arousal of the reaction. Cops have a job that requires extreme restraint under highly emotional circumstances and they require special training to adjust to a completely different world with a whole new set of survival tools.

Almost all cops age too quickly, see too much pain and suffering, lose trust in almost everyone (because EVERYONE lies to the police), and lose their social grounding. In addition to the work there is the pressure to do it right and conform to the institutional rules fof documentation in addition to learning Chapter and verse of a bewildering variety of laws to be enforced. This happens in the first several years of employment and is accompanied by a progressive disillusionment with society that has to be replaced with a new social circle with members who can be trusted. 

The Constabulary has this all under control with the assignment of the recruit to a more senior member as a partner on patrol. This is his mentor in survival: both on the job and off but most importantly how to conform to the completely new society he has been thrust into without his consent. He is now a member of the Blue Brotherhood and he now learns the rules and regulations that will determine his long term survival in a hostile environment like the Constabulary he joined.

Within the course of the first two years after his training and indoctrination is complete, the recruit has had enough experience with both Constabulary and the members of the Brotherhood to make a final judgement of his choice of a career as a Law Officer.
To remain is to abandon all his previous life and connection to Canadian Society and join his new found officer friends in a society that will protect him and provide guidance for a lifetime career. It is a leap into the “Us” and “Them” mentality and with the support of the Brotherhood there is no deterrent for any violation of the law that he might perform in the course of his duties: Job security above all else.

The Police Officer knocking on your door right now has made the decision to remain a Police Officer and join his new Society- the Blue Brotherhood. As a career decision that is probably a wise choice but by doing so he swears an oath to obey the rules of the Society in exchange for his comrades’ support if he makes a mistake in the course of his duties, or even in his off hours. Unfortunately the rules of the Brotherhood have expanded to cover not only the Arbitrary Discipline rendered by the Constabulary they work for, but have been perverted to avoid any responsibility for ignoring and violating the accepted laws of Canadian Society.

That is the subject of my next post in this series:

CANADIAN JUSTICE IS JUNK- PART 1



CANADIAN JUSTICE IS JUNK
HERE IS WHY!

Introduction: This is the first in a series of posts regarding the problems that exist within the Canadian Justice System. This first one deals with the source of the problem and the following posts will deal with other contributing factors that create the impulse for our Policing to fall into a Fascist mode
Over the course of the last decade on an ever increasing basis the Canadian Public has been witness to the deterioration of the Justice system into one where secrecy, lies, ignorance, obstinacy and submission are the controlling forces governing the conduct of the National Police Forces or Canadian Constabulary, The relationship between Police Officers and the Public has deteriorated to the point of mutual hostility and mistrust and contaminates our whole society.

Up until about thirty years ago if a Police Officer knocked on a citizen’s door in midmorning and asked if he could ask some questions he would be invited in, offered a coffee and his questions answered without reservation. There would be no suspicion of any ulterior motive; he was a friend who could be trusted.
THEN

In the same circumstances today a wise citizen will refuse the Officer entry to the residence unless he has a warrant and will refuse to answer any questions until in the presence of a judge, If any Cop is granted entry to the residence; anything he sees, or is told, is recorded as evidence that can be used to prosecute and convict you but none of that evidence can be used to defend yourself.
NOW
Watching this change in the relationship over the years I have tried to find the source of the disaffection and why the split occurred, but it is only in the past few months that I feel I have traced the origin back to a mistake made by Lyin” Brian Mulroney in 1985. In the interest of covering his own dirty tracks he created the Access to Information Act R.S.C., 1985, c. A-1 that specifically was intended to “extend the present laws of Canada that provide access to information under the control of the Government of Canada.

Passage of the Act was automatic considering Brian had the largest Majority Government in Canadian history. In his attempt to gain respectability and support, he accepted and protected the Canadian Constabulary’s role of secrecy with regard to investigations in progress concerning virtually all criminal activity.

Brian wasn’t smart enough to realize that he was dealing with a Constabulary, a structure created by the British military to maintain discipline in the ranks; and who opposed any reduction their control. He also missed the fact that the rank and file within the Constabulary had bonded together into what has been called the “Blue Brotherhood”. This opposing group was created out of necessity to resist the arbitrary disciplinary nature of the Constabulary. They were effective in influencing the list of exemptions for investigations that effectively grants all Police officers who commit a crime complete immunity from prosecution.

The moral of the story is that whenever a complaint is lodged against a police officer for a violation of any law it automatically initiates an investigation and details are not open to scrutiny.

At this point in Canadian history we are in a period where the police can commit crime with impunity because the Act prevents all information about the progress and nature of the investigation from being revealed.

As if this level of protection wasn’t enough there has been a corruption of the investigatory procedures to restrict the investigation to another Constabulary detachment. In short only Cops investigate crimes by other Cops. That is the topic of my next post regarding the worst advice given to Lyin’ Brian.by:

The Risk Research Assessment Program A Proposal for Peace!



The Risk Research Assessment Program
A Proposal for Peace!

The Canadian Medical Association and the Provincial Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons have finally succeeded in sticking their heads all the way up where the sun doesn’t shine. 

The Doctors have now taken the initiative and in return for their signature want total control of the Doctor/ Patient relationship. They accompany this with an exorbitant ever escalating scale of fees in the hundreds of dollars. We have a profession that, after admitting that they don’t know shit from shinola about any of the aspects of Medicinal Cannabis use or treatment, are demanding complete control of a patients treatment under threat of terminating their prescription for disobedience.
That is not going to fly. There is no way that a patient who has spent years developing a mode of treatment that suits his complaint is going to surrender control over his treatment and obey a dumb-fucker on a learning curve from nowhere.
What is most surprising to me is that I advised them to take the exact opposite approach and give the patient control of his treatment and teach the doctor out of his dumb-fucker state. I made this in the form of a proposal for a joint research project to Dr. Louis Francescutti after his appointment to the CMA Presidency. I was ignored as is standard practice for the CMA.
Since then I have watched the profession fester with resentment and they are now in an impossible situation making unreasonable demands that cannot be met because they have destroyed all confidence in their role as a trustworthy source of help.
I may be a fool or simply overly optimistic but I believe that there is a way to break the current impasse if only the profession will listen and understand that they need to show some humanity and understanding and above all negotiate a middle ground to establish a workable Doctor/Patient relationship in Cannabis Treatment and establish its benefit on a factual basis.

So where does that leave us now?

In a position where we can ignore Government influence and resolve the differences in goals of Doctors and Patients by partnering to a new instructional model and eliminating the shortage of information that so plagues Doctors in the assumption of the risk of treatment. To this end I now repeat the proposal I made the CMA to establish a joint Program to collect the missing information.

The Risk Research Assessment Program

We have two groups interested in the Medical aspect of the problem but at extreme ends of the treatment scale. The CMA wants good information regarding all aspects of Cannabis therapy and the Potential Patient population has all the answers. There is no communication between the two and unless that gap is eliminated there will never be a solution found.

The complexity of the problem becomes even more convoluted when the number of variables to be considered is magnified a thousand times. A large number of the patients most concerned are those who over the course of years have devised a personal treatment that works for them. They have selected hybrids as a source crop, and complex processing procedures to make the medications they use to successfully alleviate their symptoms. As a collective they possess all the knowledge the CMA needs and they need the CMA for a signature to purchase and possess their raw materials.

I am no doctor but I am a damned good statistician, a superb analyst and I’ve got excellent common sense. Combine that with humility that is exceeded only by my good looks and you wind up with brilliance or a fool. I believe that there is a way to break this impasse and I am now proposing it to you for your judgment of its merit. It will need polishing but it could work but only if the CMA assumes its proper role as a leader of a profession devoted to the welfare of patients. At the moment they are paralyzed by an obsession with risks and are blockading effective treatment and that must stop.

The risks they fear can neither be qualified nor quantified: What are the risks and how serious are they? They don’t know what they fear and my proposal is that they start doing some Research to find out what the Bogeyman is. The CMA is the only one who can! They have mistakenly interpreted the MMPR as requiring them to authorize the use of marijuana as a medical treatment. It does no such thing.

The responsibility of the physician under the MMPR limited to the same declaration required by the MMAR. Whatever steps taken to establish grounds for a signature, all the attending Physician is doing is certifying an applicant has symptoms of a disease that requires further treatment. There neither is any recommendation as to what that treatment shall be, nor is it a prescription for medication. It merely establishes the right to purchase and possess as much cannabis as required for the patient’s medical needs. The origin of the Cannabis purchased, legal or illegal, is none of the physician’s concern nor is the quantity purchased. All his signature accomplishes is giving the Patient immunity from arrest and prosecution for possessing his medication: If he elects to buy pot instead of a stereo.

Let’s Make A Deal and use our Combined strength against Harper for leverage

The one thing that is certain is that Stephen Harper wants his Commercialization of Marijuana to succeed. A continuing blockade to Customers by Doctors is not to be desired when the doors to his Marihuana Monopoly scheme open for business. The CMA should have a really good look at the huge pile of money he’s talking about. A billion and a half?

Gee? I wonder what our Fearless Leader would pay for Doctors to wholeheartedly agree to support his program in the interests of speeding up the supply transfer to Licensed Growers and no shortages to patients.
Minimum 10% Max? plus immunity from risk. Not too much to ask:
This is risky business so the CMA should request financing to start a Research Program to assess that risk. There is a risk of a completely unknown probability and any Doctor participating as a researcher and dealing within the program must be exempted with no liability that for outcome under both Criminal or Civil jurisdictions.

The Program would allow any licensed physician to participate as a researcher subject to guidance regarding the Doctor/Patient relationship that will be established per protocol.

This is a simple trade. Any doctor feeling qualified to do so can establish a legally binding relationship with a Patient that exchanges
access to cannabis for complete disclosure of the patient’s treatment regimen and detailed follow ups to assess progress.

The CMA wants data related to both the short and long term use of marijuana regardless of method of use or product used and dosage. There is none. Gather some! Get off your ass and gather some

Patients want maintenance of the level of medication they are currently using for relief of their particular symptoms preferably in the same form or better if found. Provide

Create a research project to gather the data you want with a trade.

The Doctor trades his approval for a patient’s medication requirement because he is participating in research, supplying an experimental drug and recording the treatment progress in order to assess its effects. Because it is an assessment of risk there must be no responsibility or liability for an unexpected bad outcome. Ensure that factor with Health Canada.

The Doctor must be in control of the relationship and its procedural requirements but the patient retains control over what is done with the marijuana after purchase. The patient trades detailed access to his treatment regimen and medical progress and any changes made for the right to obtain or create his own medication, He agrees to periodic reports and/or assessments to be determined. At this point there are 30,000+ potential research subjects waiting for the opportunity to share their knowledge for weed. All they need to know is that some doctor is going to look after their interests instead of their own and the flood gates will open.

As a statistician I am astounded by the immense pool of information about cannabis medical utility that can be extracted from 30000 users and the speed that it can be now be analyzed and understood.
With an intelligent first examination by the doctor and a structured interview, his physical symptomology and its severity is known, and a baseline established that can be expanded to include:

1.    A complete history of the patient’s use and treatment mode
2.    A marijuana sample to be used for genetic and pharmacological analysis
3.    A sample of any creams, oils, teas, or any product ingested
4.    An identification of the method of use

If all 30000 of the growers responded for just that first interview you could pull complete knowledge about every hybrid plant’s genetics and its potential as a producer of whatever cannabinoids are the effectors in any product used. You now have an established baseline: with a reasonable repeat assessment and interview schedule and the help of the patient you can measure whatever is changed in the treatment regimen and the THC and CBD composition in whatever product they are using and a verbal follow up on physical benefits.

One other point that should be noted by the CMA re their role in the matter: opposing is simply inflicting aggravation on patients who already have enough to worry about with the loss of personal and designated growth. Your signatures are of diddly shit importance to any potential grower who is in the position of having to grow his own because he cannot afford purchase it at current price levels. They are doomed to grow criminally under threat of arrest by the Cops and ruination from misguided building inspectors if their medication source is discovered.

That is a sourdough ending to what I think is a reasonable path to reconciliation and the restoration of a Doctor/Patient relation based on respect and trust. That is a far better outcome than a continuation of the current Doctor/Patient relationship based on lies, paranoia, fear and contempt. It can’t get any worse for the CMA image as seen by the Medical Marijuana Patient Community: They’re an arrogant collection of unsympathetic liars who don’t give a damn about their patient pool. These ethical cretins are primarily interested in their own professional and financial security, not in our patient welfare. The CMA does not represent doctors: It is simply a lobbyist representing the commercial interests of a ridiculously intertwined snarl of corporations owned by Doctors that owns and controls the Canadian Medical System.

Nasty and unwelcome as this professional image has become, it’s completely warranted by the twelve years of obstinacy, opposition and misinformation accorded Medical Marijuana by the CMA that prompted me to write this.


Thanks for your interest

SOMETHING YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT ME!
SOMETHING I’M PROUD OF

God Gave Me a Gift
A Needle
A Thread
And
The Talent to Create Things of Beauty.

I do Needlepoint. It’s not cross stitch, embroidery, crewel or any other established way of doing needlepoint. There is no print or pattern that I work to and no rules to obey. I will have a very rough outline on paper of what I think my idea should wind up as but only as an initial idea. I just grab a needle, thread, and my choice of fabric to work on and I begin to sew freehand using the thread like a colored pencil drawing line after line after line of colors, threads, stitches and patterns as they emerge from my fingers and finally after possibly a year and a hundred thousand stitches later I get to see my creation and I amaze myself with what I have been able to produce.

I can no longer do my art because of finger and visual problems so I decided that since it has never been seen before, to put it on display and share it with the people who now make my life worth while: All of you.


The First Piece in this exhibit is a 30” diameter Wall Hanging.

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.
