Vancouver Christmas Market

We checked out the German Christmas market in Vancouver today. It was nice to go before the crowds get crazy. Now it's at Jack Poole Plaza where the Olympic Cauldron is beside Canada Place. The Christmas market is a great place to get authentic food and handmade crafts. It costs $10 to get in but if you pay an extra dollar you can get a seasons pass which is well worth it. I don't like the mulled wine. Sugary red wine just isnt my thing. I prefer the dark beer myself.



The Trans Siberian Orchestra is another Christmas tradition. They're awesome.

Calgary: largest fentanyl bust in ALERT history

CBC is reporting that "Investigators confiscated record-setting amounts of methamphetamine and fentanyl pills in a year-long operation dubbed Project Offshore that Calgary police say took more than $4 million in drugs off the streets. Over the course of the operation, 11 houses in Calgary were searched, turning up 15,757 fentanyl pills, 28 kilograms of methamphetamine, 6.7 kilograms of cocaine and 75 kilograms of cocaine buffing agent, ALERT says."

"The fentanyl seizure is the largest of its kind by ALERT, while the meth seizure nearly doubles the previous record for all of Alberta. Given the health crisis our communities have faced over opioid abuse, there is no doubt in my mind that lives have been saved." No kidding.

This is how you save lives and confront organized crime. By getting fentanyl off the streets. Not with Lethal Injection sites. Public opinion claims the Edmonton Police Service is compromised. That's why ALERT is the one confronting drug trafficking not the EPS.

Now the BC Gang task Force is compromised. They no longer target drug trafficking. They give the Hells Angels drug dealers police protection in the DTES and on the Surrey strip and pay millions of dollar to Hells Angels drug dealers and enforcers in exchange for letting them continue as long as they rat out a few small time rivals. In Alberta the gang task force is confronting organized crime. In BC they are promoting it.

The Sonoma Angels Indictment

The Aging Rebel is reporting that "the United States Attorney for the Northern District of California released the indictment that actually charges 10 members of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club and one former member with racketeering. The indictment, titled U.S. v. Jonathan Joseph Nelson at al., is a 17 page document appended to 20 pages of indictment sheets. The club members belong to three charters: Sonoma, Fresno and Salem, Massachusetts."

Last year we cited a San Francisco Gate article stating "When a 49-year-old Santa Rosa woman learned her husband was about to be stripped of his membership in the notorious Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, police say she met with a member over the weekend to get answers. Instead of receiving an explanation, officials say she was sexually assaulted by the former president of the outlaw biker group’s Sonoma County chapter and forced to comply for the sake of her husband’s safety. Her attacker, 53-year-old Rohnert Park resident Raymond Michael Foakes, was arrested Monday night on suspicion of sexual assault, victim intimidation, stalking and gang participation."

Ray Foakes was the former president of the Sonoma County Hells Angels. As the Aging Rebel points out, the rape allegation and the murder of a third person in the Fresno clubhouse are the big charges. The rest appear to be minor charges of assaulting people and stealing their motorcycles. Who does that anyways? Only rats steal motorcycles. Freaking rodents. I thought rape was against the HA rules? Evidently not. What they say and what they do are two different things. Mom Boucher got his patch after getting out of jail for armed rape.

In 2006 Ray Foakes was charged with possessing and distributing crystal meth. In 2008 his brother in law was shot dead beside him in the truck he was driving after Hells Angels in a prosession behind him swarmed a vehicle in a road rage incident.

Credibility concerns at the Kevin LeClair murder trial

Kim Bolan is reporting that "A defence lawyer for alleged gang hitman Cory Vallee said in B.C. Supreme Court on Wednesday that a key Crown witness made up a confession from his client in order to get a deal from police." The lawyer then cited some details of what the witness claimed to police that Vallee told him about the LeClair hit that did not line up with other evidence called earlier in the trial. There has been huge credibility concerns with paid crown witnesses lately.

Aside from the credibility concerns of the paid police witness, the actual testimony he gave about the murder confession is absolutely absurd. The crown claims As Vallee sipped his soup, D said: “I just looked at him and I said `Everything went OK? And then he just kind of looked up at me and nodded and gave a smile, yep, and he just went back to eating his soup.” I don't really see that as a confession to the murder. Is everything OK? Yes it is. There was no confession.

Initially the police claimed the Bacon's ordered the hit on Kevin because Kevin was cooperating with the police with regards to the Surrey Six along with everyone else who saw that outrageous event as a turning point in the public's conscience about murder. However, it appears the police were lying to that witness in hopes they would testify against the Bacons.

My concerns remain consistent. The police are not trying to stop drug trafficking, they are only trying to seize the proceeds of crime in exchange for letting it continue. The police have no regard for truth or justice. Putting Blaze on their payroll is evidence of that.

Chinatown sues City over lethal injection sites

The Vancouver Sun is reporting that "Chinatown’s business association is taking its fight against Edmonton’s newly approved safe injection sites to court. In a federal court application filed earlier this month, the Chinatown and Area Business Association is seeking a judicial review of the federal health minister’s Oct. 17 decision to grant an exemption to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act for three of the four planned community-based safe injection sites."

Thank God someone has a brain. The Majority of taxpayers in Edmonton did not want lethal injection sites but the special interest organized crime lobbyists crammed it through anyways. Lethal injection sites are illegal. They knowingly and intentionally break the law. Its about time someone took them to court over it. We need treatment for addicts not poison promotion which directly increases violent crime. Treatment saved Kati. Lethal injection sites did not.

In June of this year the Edmonton Sun reported that "Nearly 200 protestors gathered outside of the Alberta Legislature on Saturday to speak out against a concentration of safe injection sites in the Boyle, McCauley and Central McDougall neighbourhoods that they say is part of a larger issue of systemic ghettoization.”

In October of this year CBC reported that "A central Edmonton resident says she has evidence city officials planned the locations of supervised drug injection sites long before community residents were consulted." Health Canada is a criminal organization. They do not promote health. They promote the pharmaceutical fraud they are tied to.

Man shot near Surrey School

The Peace Arch News is reporting that "Police are looking for a suspect after a man was shot near Surrey’s Royal Heights Elementary school Thursday morning. Surrey RCMP say a call came in about a shooting near the Surrey/Delta border at 96th Avenue and 116th Street at about 8:40 a.m. Police say the victim is a 33-year-old man from Surrey. He was taken to hospital and the extent of his injuries is not yet known." Royal Heights is actually North Delta.

New Brunswick first province to secure marijuana supply

The Times Colonist is reporting that "New Brunswick says it has become the first province to fully secure its supply of recreational marijuana. It announced a memorandum of understanding with Zenabis to provide four million grams (4,000 kilos or 4 tons) of cannabis and derivative products with a retail value of about $40 million." Zenabis is located in Atholville, NB and Delta, BC.

"The Zenabis deal is expected to create about 450 jobs over the next two years in the village of Atholville." The "location in Delta, B.C., which will be growing 4,000 kilograms of marijuana and sending it back east every year as part of the new deal."

The next question is what about the free market? That is what Marc and Jodie Emery are pushing for. Free market pot is like generic drugs. Everyone hates pharmaceutical monopolies. The NDP government has been big on generic medicine to break the monopolies and provide affordable medicine. Time will tell if they apply that to free market pot in BC.

Although I did not vote for the legalization of pot and prefered the decriminalization of pot, now that it is being legalized I support free market pot. You can't legalize pot then say only the big pharmaceutical companies can grow it. That's like saying your not allowed to grow tobacco or tomatoes if you want to. It's absurd. If the Hells Angels want to grow and sell legal pot let them. Just dont let them have a monopoly on the market. Let anyone grow it. Supply and Demand yo.

Mr. Bill strikes again

Why is this not surprising? The Telegraph is reporting that "Bill Clinton facing four sexual assault lawsuits after fresh allegations made against the former president." I don't want to minimize the recent trend of reporting sexual harassment and since I mentioned George Bush Sr's new allegations it's only fitting I mention Bill Clinton's new allegations just so we show that both sexual harassment and drug trafficking are non partition. In Fact, the Bush Clinton Fraud was joined at the hip since Mr. Bill was a brother from another mother yo. Barry Seal and Chip Tatum what?!

A party bus burst into flames in Vancouver

CBC is reporting that "No one was injured after a party bus burst into flames in downtown Vancouver Saturday night. Several witnesses shared video of the fire on social media, which officials said was burning in the rear of the vehicle when crews first arrived around 10 p.m.

'They did have a challenge with shutting off the engine,' said Assistant Chief John Zacharuk with Vancouver Fire Rescue Services. 'They had no way of shutting off the engine as the cab was burnt, so they had to manually choke off the air filter.' Zacharuk said the fire also spread to a nearby tree and part of a storefront awning. No injuries were reported. The cause of the fire is under investigation."

Hells Angels might lose Niagara clubhouse

The National Post is reporting that "The home of one of Niagara’s most notorious criminal organizations may soon face the wrecking ball. Lawyers representing the owners of the Hells Angels clubhouse on Darby Road in Welland, Ont., have until Dec. 6 to appeal a ruling that the building be forfeited to the Ontario government. If they don’t appeal or an appeal fails, the fortified building will likely be demolished, police sources tell The Standard."

“Based on this evidence, I conclude that the clubhouse is used as safe haven to plan illegal activities, including the drug trade, and to guard against police interference with those activities,” Akabarli says. “I am satisfied that church meetings were not simply opportunities to discuss clubhouse maintenance but that the clubhouse was used to hold these meetings in order to facilitate and plan unlawful activity.” She also says it was reasonable to conclude that members of the Hells Angels used drug money to pay club dues which were then used to pay the mortgage on the buildings. “I thus conclude that the mortgage was paid down, at least in part, through funds acquired through unlawful activity. (The clubhouse) is thus proceeds from unlawful activity.”

Gerard Ward and the Niagara chapter have a long history of drug trafficking. It doesn't look like there is much grounds for an appeal. Former Niagara Regional Police constable Frank Dean Rudge was convicted of leaking information to the Hells Angels in 2013.

Zavisa Drecic, a former member of the Niagara Hells Angels, had been transferred to the Woodbridge chapter when he was caught trafficking the date-rape drug and cocaine in the Toronto area. Hells Angels associate Nicola Nero of Niagara Falls served nine years for selling cocaine to a police informant while on bail for stealing $2.7 million from an armored car in 2003.

Rabih Alkhalil, who is from Surrey, was caught in a huge 400 kilo a week Hells Angels cocaine ring out of Niagara. Larry Amero was his co accused in that case. Rabih Alkhalil has also been charged in the murder of Johnnie Raposo in Toronto. Nic Nero was his co accused in that case.
