Unprotected: The failure of the Witness Protection Program

CBC is reporting that "Noel Harder risked his life as a secret police agent, then spent three years testifying as the star witness against drug dealers, gun runners, mobsters and the Hells Angels. Today he’s a marked man with an apparent $2-million bounty on his head. And he’s on his own. The RCMP kicked Harder out of the federal Witness Protection Program last month and, by his account, reneged on one promise after another.'

We have heard this all before. The CBC previously reported that a Woman in the witness protection program sued the RCMP for negligence. In that case the woman found out that the police were the ones that leaked her identity on purpose to force her into the Witness Protection Program so she would testify for them. That was not the first time that happened.

The CBC reported on allegations of bullying and harassment in RCMP's witness protection program. CBC also reported that another couple claiming the witness protection program failed them wouldn't do it again. This is what we tell people.

If you want to leave the, life just leave. Don't testify and don't become a police informant. It's just not worth it. I tell people if you testify, I can't protect you the police have to. But I warn people if they testify, the police won't protect them forever. Eventually they will leave the program with nothing. Think about it. You have a new name and a new identity. How are you going to get a job without any job references? How are you going to go back to school without a transcript?

In the recent Gang forum sponsored by SAFA, Andrew Bacchus said when he left the life, he didn't have any problems with his gang. He was a drug dealer. When he stopped selling drugs that opened up more territory that other dealers wanted so it wasn't a problem. Them worrying about him testifying wasn't even a consideration. There was no need for him to do that.

At the Gang forum there was a cop from the gang exit program. He said that whe he starts working with gang members there is a huge wall to break down. He tells them he is willing to help people leave the life without getting information from them. That is the exact opposite of what all the other cops do. If that is true, that would be a good thing.

For all those who have been screwed over by the witness protection program, the best thing to do is use your old transcript and job references. Just tell them you did a legal name change because of a stalker which is not entirely untrue. For those of you considering the program, don't.

Concentration Camps for Children - Father's Day March

Who would have thought it was possible in our day? We have a Constitution guaranteeing civil liberty to everyone regardless of race color or creed. Equal protection of the law for everyone rich or poor. The oath breakers claim that the Constitution is just for American citizens only despite the fact that the Constitution says people not citizens.

The oath breakers claim that the CIA is allowed to torture people on American soil as long as they aren't American citizens. The CIA will even torture Americans in black prison sites as long as they aren't on American soil. These are the oath breakers Nostradamus warned us about. OK maybe it wasn't Nostradamus but somebody did.

Separating children from their families at the border is a criminal act. God is watching. We all are. I understand how in Europe the French would like France to stay French and how the Irish would like Ireland to stay Irish. I get that. Here in Canada we are all immigrants. We have created a free republic that is multi cultural. America used to share that ideal. The founding fathers of the US Constitution had it. The creators of the Statue of Liberty had it. Somehow it got lost along the way.

I understand that a country needs to have some sense of order in dealing with legitimate asylum seekers and can't feasibly let everyone in who just walks across the border. However separating children from their families at the border is an evil act that needs to end. Trump agrees and blames the Democrats. Then fix it now.

The Independent is reporting that "Hundreds of people have demonstrated outside a tent camp in Texas that is being used by the Trump administration to house migrant children deliberately separated from their parents under a zero tolerance immigration policy."

"The government announced last week it had opened the camp at Tornillo, 40 miles southwest of El Paso. It is the latest facility to house children who have tried to cross the border by themselves or been split from their families as the result of the enforcement of rules intended to dissuade people from trying to enter the US."

Trump claims " the policy was established by the previous administration and he can do nothing about it without the cooperation of Democrats to completely overhaul immigration."

"One shelter in Brownsville, Texas, which holds nearly 1,500 boys aged 10 to 17, recently opened its doors to the media. The facility, which reporters said resembled a jail, only permitted the young people for spend two hours outside each day."

Is this North Korea or the United States? Please advise. Wasn't this in Rocky IV?



Update: It does appear that the practice of separating children from their parents at the border did start before Trump under the Obama administration. Since the Democrats are using this insane practice to promote themselves, let's do the right thing and end this horrible practice.

Toronto shooting and arrests

CP24 is reporting that "Police have made an arrest in the shocking daylight shooting of two young sisters at a playground in Scarborough. A suspect, identified as 21-year-old Markham resident Sheldon Eriya, was also arrested in Pickering on Friday. He is charged with seven offences, including two counts of attempted murder."

The Canadian Press is reporting that "Police say a man found with gunshot wounds after gunfire was reported at the Polson Pier entertainment complex on Toronto's waterfront is no longer in life-threatening condition. Police say officers responded to reports of gunfire on Saturday night and shell casings were found in a parking lot. They say the man suffering from gunshot wounds was found about two kilometres from the scene. Officers took the man to hospital for treatment. They say there were reports of multiple gunshots."

CP24 is also reporting that "Police have made an arrest in the murder of a 28-year-old woman who was found dead inside her West Queen West apartment earlier this week. Victoria Selby-Readman was found suffering from obvious signs of trauma inside the fifth-floor apartment that she rented at a building on Richmond Street near Niagara Street on Tuesday evening. In a news release issued on Sunday, police said that they have now arrested a 41-year-old man in connection with her death."

"Police say the suspect met the accused through social media websites.They say that investigators believed other woman may have also been contacted by the accused on social media websites. Those people are being urged to contact police. Richard Isaac, 41, of Brampton, appeared in court at Old City Hall on Sunday to face one count of second-degree murder."

Edmonton Tribal member convicted of attempted murder

The Edmonton Sun is reporting that "A patched Tribal motorcycle gang member shot his steroid supplier in the face as a way to ingratiate himself to the Hells Angels after the dealer got on the bad side of the notorious outlaw biker gang, a judge ruled Friday." Sounds like a complete loser.

The Edmonton HAs are dirty as f*ck just like the EPS. In 2016 we reported that an Ontario Village Idiot named Rick Levesque transferred to the Edmonton chapter after the Ontario Nomads were disbanded by Quebec. He was the put in charge of the Tribal MC's drug dealing in Fort Mac.

Rich Coleman in court over TimberWest

Rich Coleman, also known locally as the Antichrist, is in the news again. The Tyee is reporting that "British Columbia government lawyers acting for Rich Coleman are arguing that the former forests minister should not have to say under oath what he knew about the sale of TimberWest and the company’s financial troubles." Oh really? Why is that?

Rumors imply Rich Coleman is considering running for Surrey Mayor. Please do. Give up your seat as MLA and run for Mayor of Surrey. We will slay him. Allegorically speaking of course.

Clay Roueche's Art Prints

Previously I mentioned how Clay Roueche has become quite the artist. His prints are posted on an Instagram account. Well I recently found out that some of his prints are available at Blue Lotus Art Gallery in Guildford so I checked it out. The prints were donated to a friend to promote Clay's art and the positive things he's been doing. There were three left so I scooped up two of them: the Dragon and the Phoenix. They are Clay Roueche originals.

The colours are amazing. The blue, the green, the turquoise, the red, the purple... the colours are so vivid they jump off the canvas and penetrate your vision. I've never seen anything like it. My crappy cell phone picture does not do it justice.

The title of the Dragon print is Wisdom. The explanation states that "in the backdrop the Chinese characters Honor, Loyalty and Respect can be seen which shines a light on the virtues that helped the dragon gain wisdom." In the martial arts the dragon also represents the spirit.

The title of the Phoenix print is Fortitude. The explanation states that the phoenix represents rebirth and resurrection. "In Chinese culture the Phoenix is considered a perfect match with the Dragon, they are often associated as yin and yang." The Chinese characters read: Integrity, Fortitude and Duty. "This Phoenix embodies an Indomitable Spirit, as it rises up on a new mission full of purpose." I felt these two prints were a perfect match for me in my life at this time.

The seven heavenly virtues are Faith, Hope, Charity, Fortitude, Justice, Temperance, Prudence. While the seven deadly sins or vices are Greed, Gluttony, Lust, Envy, Sloth, Wrath and Pride.

Back in Belfast the Phoenix was the symbol for the Provisional IRA. At UBC there are five stone carvings that represent five virtues in Confucianism: "Ren, (humanity, benevolence) Yi, (righteousness) Li, (propriety, rites) Zhi, (wisdom, knowledge) and Xin (trustworthiness). The four virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom are at the four directions while trustworthiness is in the middle. The centre’s attribute is the element earth. All living things cannot flourish without the earth just as the four virtues cannot be established without trustworthiness."

For years I've had a two piece print of a picture of an empty bench beside a tree with the horizon engulfed in fog. It reminded me of hiking past Seymour First peak in Vancouver. Sometimes in the winter you get to first peak and the visibility is zero. The fog rolls in and the wind blows creating a complete white out. At that point you say OK this is as far as I'm going today. Other days when the sun is out the visibility is astounding. You can see for miles and the view is breath taking.

The print I have of the fog reminds me of that. For many years it spoke to a point in my life where I was pressing forward waiting for the fog to clear so I could see the view. Now the fog has cleared and I can see clearly. Now that old print has been replaced with the dragon and the phoenix. The future looks bright so it does. Destiny is being revealed. One step at a time.

I support Clay's prison transfer to Canada. After his illegal arrest, that's the least they could do.

Life goes on - a salute to K-9.



Update: The owner of Blue Lotus Art Gallery in Guildford states that they have some more of Clay's prints coming soon that still need to be mounted. Right now they only have one left. She said they don't judge artists they just support the art that they create. This is the same studio that I previously saw that remarkable picture of the Sikh Golden Temple in India.

Laila Yuile is back

Everyone has been asking what happened to Laila Yuile? She is a prominent local blogger that stood up against bullying and made it into the mainstream media writing articles for various newspapers in addition to posting thoughtful blog posts on local politics. A lot of people hate politics for good reason. It's such a dirty business. Yet politicians start and end wars. Politicians grant and remove civil liberty. Politicians raise and lower taxes. They spend your money. Therefore I submit that politics should be something that concerns all of us.

I was speaking with my MLA about Laila's disappearance. After withstanding a corporate hack on her blog and twitter she finally stop posting after the NDP approved the Site C Dam. I was honest, I said I think she really felt betrayed by the NDP for approving that project. She poured her whole heart into that campaign. Sometimes when we get knocked on our ass in life we need to pause and take a standing eight count to catch our breath. (It's a boxing term.)

I will say a word on the corporate hack of her twitter account during the Site C campaign. They lied and said it was Anonymous when it obviously wasn't. Anonymous opposed the Site C dam and supported Laila. It was a corporate hack impersonating Anonymous. Laila had made a humorous and thought provoking post about how an eagles nest was violating the Site C court injunction and the corporate hacks panicked shutting down her blog and twitter. At the time I thought why on earth would they get so freaked out about that? Later I found out why. The migratory bird act trumps everything. She almost shut them down so they panicked and played dirty. No big surprise. That is what they always do.

Laila's recent blog post makes reference to the suicide of Anthony Bourdain. His last twitter post was a King Kong remix of the House of the Rising Sun called Rising Sun Blues. Laila cited the history of arrogance and political corruption in the BC Liberal government and said just because there has been a change in government doesn't mean we can sit back and relax. She states that being loyal to your party should never mean accepting questionable or outright terrible policy, nor should it mean turning a blind eye to egregious actions within the Green Party or the NDP.

Laila cites how since 2008 British Columbians have been shortchanged billions from fossil fuel industry revenues. That sounds like it's time to Nationalize the oil to me just like Norway did. Turn those oil revenues into tax revenue. Build some schools, hospitals and affordable housing.

Unfortunately it sounds like her return has been a swan song. I hope that's not the case. When I attended the recent gang rally at City Hall organized by the South Asian community I spoke with a member of the Sikh motorcycle club. He spoke quite frankly and said I'm pissed. We planned that whole rally last year and nothing was done. He sounded fed up. I said that's the point. This council will not listen. They didn't listen about Hawthorne park. The only way we can make a change is if we change council. If we do that, things could change. If we don't, they never will. Then I asked if he would run for council.

Likewise, with all my heart I wish that Laila would run for a seat on City Council. She would win that seat and would be in a postilion to make real change possible. I'm told you don't even have to live in Surrey to run. No matter what party Laila ran for we would support her. There's always a seat in the Green Justice Party waiting for her. As for me, I'm not dead yet. I've still got a lot of fight left in me and as long as I breathe I will continue to fight the good fight. I am Unwritten.



Red sky at morning, Sailor take warning.

Linda Hepner's Fail Army: Defiant to the end

Linda Hepner reminds me of Buzz Lightyear shouting to infinity and beyond before he jumps off the bed and falls flat on his face. Only unlike Linda Hepner, Buzz Lightyear had morals. They say pride cometh before the fall, well Linda Hepner and Surrey First are as arrogant and defiant as they get. We remember the money laundering at Campbell Heights and the attempted remix at the Mega Casino on rural land in south Surrey.

We remember Hawthorne park and Clayton Heights. Surrey First is a special interest group that steam rolls over public opinion to spend tax dollars on their campaign contributors. The Surrey LRT is just another over priced SNC-Lavalin tax fraud like the second parking lot at Surrey Memorial Hospital over top the new one they had just built then tore down. That was a complete waste of money. Surrey First has been Surrey's Worst for fiscal responsibility.

Residents and businesses wanted them to confront drugs on the Surrey strip but they did the exact opposite. Instead of confronting the predatory drug dealers on the Surrey strip they provide them police protection and opened up a safe inhalation site for people to smoke crack laced with Levamisole which gives them flesh eating disease. Fraser health has nothing to do with promoting public health and welfare. They promote addiction and misery.

Linda Hepner and the Mayor's glutton council were staunch supporters of the yes side on the referendum to raise more taxes for the over funded Translink SNC-Lavalin fraud that failed. Linda Hepner's and SNC-Lavalin's people were taking down "No" signs during the referendum. With all the No LRT protests the Neocons put up a pro LRT propaganda sign on 104th. When I put up a No LRT sign beside it, the city took it down. After the success of the No LRT rally at Bear Creek Park the Neocons put a LRT car in the Guildford Parking lot on 104 and 150th street



This is how the Neocon works. They use tax dollars to brainwash the taxpayers into spending more tax dollars on them. Tax and spend is all that they do. The Reform Party was big on holding referendums and surveying voters opinion. The Neocons use tax dollars on advertising to mold public opinion instead of surveying it. Welcome to the new world order. They want to put Hjorth Road Elementary school on a traffic island. Don't forget to register to vote.

Murder in Fort McMurray

VOCM is reporting that "Wood Buffalo RCMP in Alberta confirm a Newfoundlander found dead on a road in Fort McMurray early Wednesday morning was the victim of homicide. The body of 36-year-old John Bradley Healey of Clarenville was found on an access road between Greyling Crescent and Abasand Drive around 5:40 a.m. Wednesday morning. An autopsy confirmed that Healey was the victim of homicide, and police believe his death was not a random act."

February 2016 he was charged with pointing a loaded shotgun at random cars on the highway. Sources claim he was found in possesion of drugs for the purpose of trafficking when he was pulled over and cut a deal turning in his suppliers. Fort Mac is pretty much red and white.

Young girls shot while playing in Toronto park

The Peacearch News is reporting that two young girls were caught in the crossfire of a targeted daytime shooting in a Toronto park and injured them as they played among other children. That is heinous. Unlike Linda Hepner, their mayor vows action. The Maple Ridge times has posted a video of an interview with a witness and a picture of the suspect's vehicle.
