Hells Angels tied to NB drug ring

Meanwhile, back on the eastern seaboard, police say they've shut down a major drug trafficking ring in the Moncton area with ties to the Hells Angels in Ontario and Quebec. Eight people have been charged and two others, Trevor Dow and Stéphane Gallant have already plead guilty last July when 1.5 kilos of cocaine was seized.

Police claim the drugs came from Hamilton, Ont., where the accused ringleader has ties to the Hells Angels. Police displayed a package of T-shirts with a skull and the number 81 printed on them in red from Quebec city.

Drugs in New Brunswick from Hamilton tied to the Hells Angels. Any chance they didn’t come from Domenic Violi and the Calabrians in Hamilton? Speaking of Hamilton Hells Angels in New Brunswick, that guy that looked like Santa who was in New Brunswick claiming he was the one that got Buttkiss their 1% status was from Hamilton.

The three Stooges flush the Conservative Party of BC down the toilet

Well this is shocking. Ian Pyper and Ariane Eckardt are lunatics. They have gone stark raging mad. First van Dongen jumps Gordon Campbell’s sinking ship and crosses over to join John Cummins and the BC Conservative party. Then in a sneaky lust for power he feeds the party’s president the poison kool aid. He tells them that the party shouldn’t be paying their party leader a salary. If you vote for me, you won’t have to pay me anything. I’m already an MP and get a salary.

That was all it took. As soon as the word money came in Ian Pyper and Ariane Eckardt went insane. So they sowed their seeds of dissention before an election milestone. The party held a vote and John Cummins survived the leadership challenge by a 71% margin. That is significant. Then the petty van Dongen has a drama queen freak fest and announces he is leaving the party he just joined because of irreconcilable differences with John Cummins the party leader.

Fine. Leave. Start your own party. Call it Stephen Harper and Brian Mulroney’s NeoCons. Better yet, call it Gordon Campbell’s Ratfest since that’s where all this childish drama came from in the first place. From the short time that van Dongen joined the party until his drama queen departure, what changed? Nothing. Other than the fact that he didn’t get his chance to become the party leader. So he took his ball and went hone. Only he has no home because he totally burned bridges with the Christy Crunch.

Now Ian Pyper and Ariane Eckardt hold a press conference and say they demand John Cummins resign. Aside from being insane and boldly declaring that they refuse to support democracy,( God help us if they ever formed the government) one is forced to wonder if they aren’t really working for Gordon Campbell or Adrian Dix. That kind of insanity crushes any credibility the party was rapidly gaining under John Cummins leadership.

Let’s be fair, this kind of dirty politics isn’t limited to the BC Conservatives, it has affected every political party under the sun. Preston Manning started a political party and the opportunists stabbed him in the back and reverted it to what he originally set out to change. Gordon Wilson was the one that put the BC Liberals on the map. Before that televised leadership debate he was in, the party simply didn’t exist. Then Gordon Campbell seized the opportunity to highjack the party and take it clearly down the wrong road.

Even the NDP in BC. There was nothing wrong with Carol James’ leadership. She was right on the money. Political opportunists put Jenny Kwong up to planting seeds of dissention which caused her to resign and a new leadership was selected. This is why people hate politics and mistrust politicians. They are inherently dishonest and self serving. Why even Lenin took over the party from Shiplov.

Clearly since they are in the minority with 29%, Ian Pyper and Ariane Eckardt along with Van Doogen and Kevin Falkner should start their own political party and see where that takes them. Since they refuse to support democracy they can’t call themselves conservatives. That would be fraud. They can call it the Monkeys. Clearly, if you pay peanuts, all you get in monkeys.

The Tbarz Renovation Scam

Last week someone gave me a tip that Tbarz was being put in someone else’s name and undergoing a name change. So I said Randy Jones is finally taking Tbarz out of his mother’s name and putting it in someone else’s name to hide the money trail? Took him long enough. Things must be heating up with the US indictment.

So the other day I happen to be driving by and sure enough, they have a sign out front claiming it has a new owner and is under new management with sexier ladies. So does that mean CJ Barrowby, the guy who got house arrest for selling cocaine for the Hells Angels, won’t be supplying Tbarz with the strippers anymore or is that just more BS since the Hells Angels control most of the stripper agencies in BC now.

Trevor Jones was listed as the Agent for Tbarz on a city application but we know he was also listed as the owner of the Dank domain name even though they used Randy’s e-mail address to register it: randy81@shaw.ca That means Randy was in control of the Dank domain name not Trevor. Just like the Tbarz domain.

Monday I drive by and they had the door open when they were closed. It looked like they were doing renovations with a Harley parked out front. Yesterday, the same thing only this time two Harleys parked out front. So when they saw new management does that mean a new chapter of the Hells Angels or the same chapter with new puppets? I sure am curious how Tbarz ties in with that huge cross border drug trafficking ring in the States. Sounds like the same people are still involved.

Perhaps the Seattle court should subpoena Randy’s pal comedian Russell Peters. Russell said his friend was the owner of Tbarz and that he loved the place calling it the nude world order. I’m pretty sure Russell was referring to Randy, not Trevor, his mother or some other Asian business agent they had on the city application. After all, Randy is the Walrus so he is. Coo coo ca chew.

Randy Jones, as we know, is a full patch member of the Whiterock Hells Angels. Both he and his brother Trevor were implicated in that huge cross border drug trafficking ring. The US indictment referred to Tbarz as the hub of that drug trafficking organization. So when they say new management, do they just mean the new Surrey chapter of the Hells Angels? Please advise because the Hells Angels are not welcome in Surrey.



Hey, speaking of Randy Jones and the Village People, what on earth happened to the Dell and the Blue corvette? I thought it was a stroke of marketing genius for the Hells Angels to turn the Dell into a Gay bar called the Blue Corvette. All those crack heads would head for the hills and clean up the neighborhood nicely. Now I see the Blue Corvette and the Oasis, is totally demolished. What are they building there now?

Young girl shot in Pakistan

OK I’m going to have to weigh in on this one. A girl who was promoting the education of young girls was shot in Pakistan. Horrible. *Someone* claims it was the Taliban who shot her. They might have but I think we should investigate the matter before we jump to any conclusions. Let’s face it, the US is trying to get public support for it’s drone attacks on Pakistan which is very wrong. Something we should not support.

They like to throw around the name of the Taliban. The Taliban did this or the Taliban did that. All those bad things the Taliban did, didn’t matter when Unical was wining and dining them trying to win the contract for the oil pipeline in Afghanistan. All the bad things the Taliban did only started to matter when they ended up giving the contract for the oil pipeline to Bridas, a firm from Argentina. After the allied invasion of Afghanistan, that decision was of course reversed.

I’m not saying the Taliban aren’t nutbars. I’m saying some of our allies in that area are nutbars too. How do we know one of our allies in that culture didn’t do it? After all, our “ally” the newly imposed president of Afghanistan made it illegal for women to ever charge their husband with rape and made it illegal for a woman to leave her house without a male escort. That is caveman era. That is not a civilized society. Yet that is what OUR allies did. The ones WE put in power.

Last year our allies in Saudi Arabia arrested a woman for posting a video of herself driving a car on YouTube. No offence, but it is a very backward culture and woman don’t have many rights there. It’s hard to conceive that even in North America there was a time when woman didn’t have the right to vote and there were actually people opposing the idea of giving them the right to vote. In time our culture evolved. Woke up to reality more like it.

There was an article in the local paper about a wonderful teenager in Kelowna who started up a non profit organization helping young girls in Afghanistan get an education. Everyone, including myself, thought it was a wonderful thing. I was however, concerned for her safety because educating girls is not a popular concept in that culture including among our allies there. It’s something we need to work on. Bombing civilians and "suspected" terrorists with drones is not the way to do it.

Jamaat ud-Dawa, a charitable organization affiliated with the Islamist militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba, used Twitter to condemn the attack on Ms. Yousafzai as a “shameful, despicable, barbaric attempt.” Understandably, “People are afraid of the [security] agencies and of the terrorist groups – people don’t know who are their real enemies.” We do know this - schools are better than bombs.

Curtis Lynd’s trial

Jeff Lynd’s nephew Curtis was due in court today to have his murder trial dates set. Curtis faces two counts of first-degree murder in the Sept. 9, 2000 deaths of Barry Kirk Mersereau and Nancy Paula Christensen. The murders were allegedly a hit ordered by the Hell’s Angels.

His uncle confessed to murdering Kirk’s brother Randy in 1999. "Lynds says he lured Mersereau to the home. He said he shot Mersereau five times with a hand gun provided by the Hells Angels who ordered the hit. He then claims his nephew Curtis Lynds and Dean Whynott took the body to a nearby field and buried it. He said Les Greenwood disposed of Mersereau's car."

Curtis Lynds was arrested on drug trafficking charges in 2007 and was subsequently charged with being an accessory after the fact in Mersereau's death for allegedly helping his uncle, Jeff, escape custody. So Jeff ratted out his own nephew.

The key points in this case are that Jeff Lynds, who was a full patch member of the Hells Angels, admitted to murdering Randy Mersereau for the Hells Angles and implicated his nephew in the murder of Randy’s brother and common law wife. The motive of the murders appears to once again be to gain control of the drug trade. Jeff joined the Nomads in Quebec after the Halifax chapter folded and was charged with three murders for the club in Montreal.

Jeff ended up committing suicide in prison after his confession, but locals have a hard time believing that story. People were hoping these confessions would bring a suspect forward in Rusty and Ellen’s murder which is believed to have been an inside job, not the work of s rival. Let’s not forget these Hells angels ordered murders involved the Halifax chapter. That’s where David Giles is originally from.

Bacchus implicated in another murder

On October 3rd, 2012, 54 year old Walter “Buddy” Wheeler of Fredericton succumbed to his injuries at the St. John Regional Hospital. Mr. Wheeler was involved in an assault outside the Twenty-20 Club in Fredericton around 2 a.m. on Sept. 29. Which resulted in serious head injuries.

A witness claims the victim got in an argument with a member of Bacchus in the bar. The witness said Buddy was yelling at the Bacchus member and a bouncer had to separate them. According to the witness, when the bar closed Buddy confronted the Bacchus member again. The Bacchus member snapped his fingers and pointed Buddy to a third individual. The third individual struck buddy and he fell to the ground. No doubt that was when they gave him the boots.

Of course this is hearsay evidence. One has to consider the reliability and the believability of the claims. What we do know is that a member of Bacchus was in the bar and was wearing a Bacchus patch. An argument commenced. Was Buddy trying to pick a fight? Perhaps. Or was the witness trying to cover their ass? Perhaps. Either way we know that someone is dead and it involved another Bacchus member.

Let’s say Buddy was trying to pick a fight. Evidently the Bacchus member wasn’t able to do the job all by himself so he recruited some help. Not very noble or admirable. Then again neither is shooting someone because you can’t take them in a fight like before.

Sadly only one person has been arrested in the murder and the name has not been released. It is highly likely that the low life dirt bag Bacchus member will get off unless someone speaks up. Yet no one wants to be a target of criminal bullies.

These Bacchus members are off the hook and out of touch with reality. There’s nothing tough about getting someone else to beat someone up for you then giving him the boots once he’s on the ground. Kicking someone in the head once they are on the ground with motorcycle boots on is murder not manslaughter. They intended to kill him.

The witness’ statement that the Bacchus member snapped his fingers and pointed buddy out to a third party implies the Bacchus member was persuing buddy not the other way around. Either way it is an insane tragedy. There is nothing good in this Bacchus plague back east. It’s just another manifestation of evil.

If you want to be tough, then join the military and fight evil don’t promote it here and don’t piss on a good soldiers grave by wearing Nazi emblems. That is an offence to France, and offence to Canada and an offense to yourself. It’s obviously someone that has no self respect.

Bacchus Criminal Charges deferred to December

Meanwhile back on the ranch, Pat James, Dartmouth’s patron saint of stupidity with the ridiculously bad ink, along with the other two stooges David Pearce and Duayne Howe have had their uttering threats and intimidation charges put over to December 10 for pleas. Pearce and James appeared in Dartmouth provincial court Friday without lawyers and asked for time to apply to Nova Scotia Legal Aid. There’s a finger and a thumb for ya.

This is from that steroid and magic mushroom seizure the huckleberry hillbillies were caught with. Pearce faces an additional count of uttering threats and five gun-related charges.

The men remain free on $5,000 recognizances. They’re not allowed to possess weapons or associate with members of Bacchus and seven other motorcycle clubs, including the Hells Angels. They also can’t wear or display any Bacchus-related clothing or paraphernalia.

So there ya have it soldiers. If ya see Pat the Flamer James at the Dartmouth clubhouse or the Tim Horton’s where the wee Wind DemonZ finger puppets hang out or if ya see him posting on that ridiculous buttkiss facebook forum, let us or the police know. That would be a parole violation bitch. Take that condom off your nose. You look ridiculous.

What a Wonderful World

Before I dive back into the darkness and talk about the latest gang related murders, I just wanted to pause and post some pictures readers sent in after I requested readers send in some pictures of some of your favorite spots over Thanksgiving. Let’s start locally and branch out. First we have a wonderful sunset from Sooke on Vancouver Island.



Next we have some towers peaking out above the Vancouver fog. Although a reader submitted it, I can tell you where it was taken. It’s from the look out on Cypress during inversion at sunrise. I’ve seen that there before with about 20 other photographers taking pictures.



Next we have the 2009 Vancouver Toy run at the Pan Pacific.



Led by Santa and Mrs. Clause of course at the 2010 toy run.



And now the crème de la crème: Quebec. These two pictures a reader sent in are of North Hatley, Quebec on Lac Massawippi. That lake is huge. I thought it was part of the ocean at first. No doubt cleaner than the Great Lakes in Ontario.



Quebec has the best of both worlds. It has nature and history. Here on the west coast you’d be hard pressed to find a building that is a hundred years old. In Quebec you have a lot of historical sites. The stone wall in Quebec city looks like Old Jerusalem.



The next seven a blog reader took while visiting Cape Cod in Massachusetts. I had Cape Cod missed up with Cape Canaveral at first. Cape Cod looks wonderful. I love those wrap around porches. Just like in Eastern Canada. Tragically the Hells Angels were caught bringing crystal meth into Massachusetts. Evil bringing evil into a nice place. It’s a plague so it is. Yet notwithstanding the plague there are many nice places to see.















Finally the last two shots are when a blog reader was visiting Scotland. 7 foot tall Cardoom thistles and fence detail in Stirling, Scotland. The thistle is of course Scotland’s national flower for those of you that missed the movie Braveheart.





Keep the photos coming. There are a lot of nice places to see. Nature, old buildings and people. Hope in the Shadows is a calendar raising money for the Downtown East Side. Catching a photo of the eyes or face of someone living in the DTES can be magical. Hope in the shadows indeed.

Louis Armstrong, the legendary jazz singer was famous for singing a song called what a Wonderful World. Clearly the world is full of good and evil. We are free to choose what we support and what we see. Is the glass half full or half empty? Indeed, these are the best of times, they are the worst of times. Notwithstanding the darkness and evil, there will always be good. Some of our favorite places to revel in.

I took my father to a seniors camp, many years ago before he passed away. At the camp an old friend of the family sang What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. Hers was not an easy life. Her husband had an affair and left her for another women. Years later her daughter died a premature death and she was left alone to raise her granddaughter. Hearing her sing that song was very meaningful. Surely wherever there is evil, good is not far away. Britney Irving was quite the photographer so she was. Those are her pictures in the video tribute.



Imagine a society where there are no murderers, no drug dealers, no pimps, no liars, hypocrites or extortionists. That would be a wonderful world indeed. That is exactly where we are heading. Lead, follow or get out of the way.

Thanksgiving – send in your photos

Howdy pilgrims. While the turkey’s in the oven and I pause to reflect during thanksgiving, I’m going to make a request. I know everyone likes to hear the latest dirty laundry about the latest Hells Angels or organized crime figures committing murder or some other local outrage. My whole point is that there is more to life than that. I like snowshoeing, hiking, kayaking, sailing, these are the things I enjoy that take me away from the insanity of the inner city.

The website and blog has been getting a lot of traffic from across the country. I’ve been thrilled to hear word from small towns all over Canada especially on the eastern seaboard where some of my own ancestors are from. I visited there once when I was very young. I should return. I remember the covered bridges of New Brunswick and the lobster of Nova Scotia.

The purpose of the covered bridge was to prevent huge pile ups of snow on the bridge so cars could cross it during winter. That tells me they get a lot of snow in New Brunswick which would be prime snowshoeing or snowmobiling country. Nova Scotia, being on the ocean is a lot like here in Vancouver on the west coast. I know there are many beautiful spots out there too.

So here’s the deal. Along with sending in info about the local gangs and links to news clips about the latest gang arrests which I do greatly appreciate, how about sending in some pictures of some of your favorite spots in your own areas? I would love to see a picture of a covered bridge in New Brunswick, especially during winter or some shots of the eastern seaboard along with any scenes in nature from anywhere in Canada. This is our home. It’s something to be grateful for and something to be proud of that deserves our devotion and protection. Even if you’re not from Canada, I’d love to see some pictures of Denmark or any other country.

So next time you’re out and about, take a picture and send me a photo of some of your favorite spots so we can all see that there definitely is a lot more to life than what can be found in a bar or a crack pipe. Tragically, people joke about small towns in BC saying there is a great deal of alcoholism there because there’s nothing to do in those small towns. The hell there isn’t. Let’s prove it.



How to cook a turkey

For those bikers, gang members or even soldiers away from home this Thanksgiving, there’s no reason you can’t have a turkey dinner and inviter a few friends over. Unless of course they don’t sell turkey at the grocery store in Iraq. I can’t help with that. Nevertheless, cooking a turkey really isn’t that difficult and it is relatively cheap when you can revel in left overs for a week.

Superstore and Safeway both had turkey’s on sale for 99 cents a pound. So if you buy a fresh turkey you can start right away. If you buy a frozen turkey you have to thaw it out in the fridge a couple days before hand. If it’s too late for that and you have a frozen turkey you can put it in a clean sink with “running” cold water. It doesn’t have to be running and you can even add some warm water to speed up the process if you’re right there to expedite the process. Thawing it out in the fridge before hand is best. You’re not supposed to leave it out over night.

The fist thing to remember when cooking turkey or any poultry item is do not cross contaminate. If you cut or put a raw turkey on a cutting board, do not put the cooked turkey on that same cutting board without washing and sanitizing it first. Believe you me salmonella food poisoning is nasty.

So you have a frozen turkey thawed out and washed in your sink. Open up the gut and take out the neck. Then open up the other side and take out the paper wrapped innards and throw them out. You can boil down the neck if you want to make a turkey stock but there will be plenty of flavor from the drippings so you really don’t need it.

Put it in a roasting pan with a little oil and season salt. A covered roasting pan is best but if you buy one of those cheap tin foil ones, you’ll need some tin foil to cover the turkey when it’s cooking so it doesn’t dry out. I cook it at 350 degrees. How many minutes per pound? I have no idea. I just go by the way it looks when you baste it. When it’s golden brown and the meat is starting to fall off the thighs, it’s done. With any food it has to be brought to 160 degrees and held at 140 degrees if you are going to serve it in a restaurant.

You need to check on it regularly and baste it. You know, that giant plastic thing that sucks up the juices from the bottom of the pan. You put the juices from the bottom of the pan over the turkey breast and legs through out the cooking process. It’s that easy. You can peel potatoes and make mash potatoes and clean and prepare brussel sprouts or whatever vegetable you prefer but in today’s age you can get all of that stuff out of the freezer if you are a newbie at cooking.

Stuffing is different. I suppose you can get stuffing out of a box. It’s nice but it’s not the same. To make your own stuffing just dice just over a loaf of bread into large squares and put it in the top of your roasting pan or a large clean container. I always add fine diced onions and celery but this year we used onions and bacon because my daughter had it at a friends house once and asked if we could try it. Poultry seasoning would include rosemary, thyme and garlic. If you don’t want to use fresh garlic you can buy the stuff in a can peeled and diced already. The dry stuff sucks. Cranberry sauce you can buy in a can.

Add a cup or two of water to the stuffing and mix it up then cram it in the stomach of the bird and up it's arse before you put it in the oven. You can get some pretty good gravy or brown sauce from a package these days or you can take the turkey out of the roasting pan when it’s finished, drain off all the grease then fill it with cold water, put it on the burner under medium heat and cook it down to make your own gravy. You’ll have to add a white wash of flour and cold water mixed up well to the gravy to thicken it up. Once the white wash is in the gravy you have to cook it for quite a while to get the flour taste out of it.

So that’s it. There’s no excuse to not have a nice dinner if you’re alone this thanksgiving. I remember seeing a memorial to a gang related shooting in Edmonton the other day when someone remembered spending last thanksgiving with a guy who had been shot down earlier this year. Tragic. Life is too short not to cherish it.

Widgeon Creek

I finally got the kayak out today and paddled up Widgeon creek on Pitt Lake. I can’t believe the extended summer we’ve been having. Normally it’s just rain, rain, rain. This year has been awesome. A couple new stories from the east coast to catch up on. I just wanted to pause for Thanksgiving.

Vancouver is no better than anywhere else. Every place on earth has it’s own special spots that take your breath away. I remember jogging on the beach in Bray outside Dublin at Sunrise. That was magnificent. If you’re in Fredericktown, Dartmouth or Halifax, there’s a lot more out there to see that you can’t find in the bar or in a crack pipe. Life is too precious to diminish it like that. Today was another beautiful day so it was.

Vito Rizzuto arrives in Toronto

Well Vito Rizzuto has arrived under police escort in Toronto 11:00 PM last night. Where he goes from there we can only wait and see. The Hells Angels aren’t nearly as powerful in Toronto as they are in Montreal. The Calabrians are in Hamilton and working on smaller cities like Kitchener. I’m not sure how powerful the Calabrians are in Toronto but I think TO is more of a free for all. The organized crime isn’t as organized there as it is in surrounding areas or in Montreal. Time will tell. It always does.

QMI claims Greg Wooley is one of Vito’s potential allies. With friends like that, who needs enemies. Wooley is still with and still working for the Hells Angels. That’s what the big meeting was all about. The Hells Angels supply the Montreal Crips through Wooley. They wanted some of the Montreal bloods to work for them too. When one said no and publically humiliated him, he was shot dead. If Vito wants to supply the Montreal Crips , the Hells Angels already have that market. If he wants to supply the Montreal Bloods, then Greg Wooley is not his friend.
