Missing Women's Inquiry Report is another Farce



CBC is reporting on a leaked copy of the new report from the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls inquiry and as expected it is another complete farce. From one extreme to the other without dealing with the real issue. It was not only Indigenous Women murdered on the Pickton farm. The whole spin is in itself divisive.

The wording of the report reavals the real political agenda of the inquiry. Rambling on about a Canadian genocide spurred by state actions and inactions rooted in colonialism and colonial ideologies. OMFG. These nutbars have a preconceived agenda and protecting women has nothing to do with it. It's like the anti Poverty committee who pretend to advocate for the poor when they are really advocating for Communism and Anarchism.

In Wally Oppal's Red Herring Inquiry as soon as the Hells Angels were mentioned, he shut down the inquiry and turned it into a less *adversarial* panel discussion where he could more easily censor key evidence. This inquiry never let the Hells Angels be mentioned because they had their own political agenda.

What about Wendy Margaret Carlic? She was murdered right before she was to testify at the new inquiry and her murder has been a complete cover up. Violence against indigenous women is real and needs to be addressed. Some of the violence against indigenous women happens on reservations. Much of it happens off the reservation. It does need to be addressed.

"The violence against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA [two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex and asexual] people is a national tragedy of epic proportion," wrote Chief Commissioner Marion Buller. OMFG.

Instead of dealing with the Dianne Rock story and the Janice Shore murder or the Ashley Machiskinic murder, the extremists run off on a tangent about two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex and asexual indigenous women without including all women. GMAFB. The sacred hoop has four elements not just one.

The Finian Commission stands and Finian's Inferno has now been released. Deal with that.



Marilyn Poitras on why she resigned from the commission

"We've been down this road before... We had people tell us if you want to know who the problems are and how to fix them you go talk to the sex trade workers. They're going to tell you who they are. It's not a mystery. This isn't some person coming out of the blue and randomly taking women off the street. People know who they're threatened by. Lets go talk to them. We weren't doing any of those things."

Exactly. Ashley Machiskinic was pushed out the window for a drug debt. Everyone knows who her dealer was. Let's stop the charade and deal with the problem.

Janice Nicole Bryant was an indigenous woman murdered by the Hells Angels

Mark Moran charged in Lloydminster Shooting



My Lloydminster Now is reporting that "The RCMP Major Crimes Unit have arrested and charged another man in relation to the death of Raymond Dumont near Rendell Park School on April 27. Police says 33-year-old Mark Moran was arrested and charged with first-degree murder on Thursday, May 30. Moran will appear in Lloydminster Provincial Court on June 4." Prior to that 28-year-old Christopher Andrew Hermkens was arrested in Calgary on Monday, May 6. Hermkens is charged with the first degree murder of 32-year-old Raymond Dumont on April 27.

This is referring to the shooting in Lloydminster. When someone gets fatally shot sitting in their car they usually call that suspicious. The police just recenetly identified the victim.

34 arrested at Hells Angels Euro Run in the UK



The Evening Standard is reporting that "More than 30 people have been arrested as thousands of Hells Angels bikers take part in a three-day event to mark the club's 50th anniversary in the UK. Surrey and Sussex Police said a total of 34 people had been detained on suspicion of drugs offences and possession of offensive weapons in connection to the Hells Angels Euro Run."

"Earlier this week, officers were granted powers to stop and search people within a designated area across Surrey and Sussex in a bid to tackle anti-social behaviour. Assistant Chief Constable of Surrey Police Nev Kemp, who is leading policing operations across both counties this week, said: "We have been very clear with those attending the Hells Angels event, many from overseas, that we will not tolerate criminal and anti-social behaviour. Our activity over the last few days has been about keeping people safe, which is why I put the Section 60 order in place."

What do they mean anti social behavior? They mean BS like when the Edmonton trash beat a father to death in Greece because he asked them to get off his bike so he could go home to his kids. If you allow high profile murders and mayhem at club events, the public will rebel against you. It's called a natural consequence of unacceptable behavior.

Kids Play hosts soccer tournament at BC Place



Kal Dosanjh from the Kids Play Foundation is reporting that "The KIDS PLAY Super Soccer Tournament began almost 14 years ago at a small park in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver with a vision to help children stay away from a life of drugs, gangs and crime by engaging them in positive activities."

"Over the years the program grew, and eventually became the impetus for creating KidsPlay. In keeping with tradition, we hosted the KidsPlay Super Soccer Tournament at BC Place Stadium on Monday. Youth from all across the lower mainland got the experience of a lifetime. Words cannot express my heartfelt gratitude to the volunteers, whose unconditional commitment to serving the community is truly inspiring. Special thanks to the Vancouver Whitecaps Soccer Club."

This is big news. It is a colossal success. This is proactive gang prevention. Well done.





The Darpan Magazine wrote about Kiran Toor, the Vice President of Kids Play back in 2015. In April 2019 she was featured on the cover of the Times of Canada Vaisakhi edition.



The Kids Play Foundation is hosting a street hockey tournament for kids 2 PM June 15th at the York Business Centre 7928 128th St in Surrey. This is worth supporting

Mule gets 5 1/2 years for delivering fentanyl and cocaine



Kamloops this Week is reporting that "A Vancouver father of four who began transporting large quantities of fentanyl and cocaine after work dried up in Alberta’s oilsands will spend more than five years in a federal prison. Pedro Dwayne Kematch, 35, was sentenced on Thursday in B.C. Supreme Court in Kamloops after pleading guilty to two counts of possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking."

"Prior to his arrest, court heard, police became aware Kematch was part of a large-scale drug trafficking group transporting fentanyl and cocaine from B.C. to other provinces." "On Feb. 28, 2015, an Acura being driven by Kematch was pulled over for speeding near Kamloops. Inside, police found a backpack and a hidden compartment containing 9,950 fentanyl pills and 487 grams of cocaine. Federal Crown prosecutor Anthony Varesi said the fentanyl pills had been stamped to look like counterfeit Oxycontin."

"Stamped to look like counterfeit Oxycontin." That is the root of the problem. Giving people fentanyl when they ask for Oxycontin is bad business just like giving someone fentanyl when they ask for cocaine. This large-scale drug trafficking group transporting fentanyl and cocaine from B.C. to other provinces could only be the Hells Angels. Now they'll just get another mule.



This was a VPD operation not a GTF op. "Thirty-six year old Jason Heyman is facing the most charges – seven of possession for the purpose of trafficking and five for gun possession. Dennis Halstead, 36, is facing four for trafficking and one of possession of a restricted firearm. Cameron Mak, 40, and Charleen Flintroy, 47, are each charged with seven trafficking counts and one for possession of a restricted firearm. Tara Marshall and Pedro Keymatch, both 32, are facing possession for the purpose of trafficking charges only." The GTF doesn't bust HA drug rings.

Dennis Alexander Halstead and Jason James Heyman had all their charges dropped by a corrupt judge. "It was determined that several raided properties, including Halstead’s home on Rochester Street in Coquitlam, Heyman’s Surrey apartment on King George Boulevard and a property on Ewen Street in New Westminster (believed to be a drug stash house) were considered warrantless searches. The Crown, however, argued police acted in good faith and proceeded with a reasonable belief as to the validity of their warrants." AYFKM? They had warrants.

Search warrants are based on just cause. They obviously had just cause to search because they were right. This judge is a traitor to the public interest. Justice James Williams presided over the Robert Picton murder trial. He was the one that told the jury they could convict Pickton even though he was not the prime suspect just an active participant. Williams is former RCMP.

Steven Pettigrew Tanked



The Surrey Now Leader is reporting that Steven Pettigrew has left the Safe Surrey Coalition. Oh Happy Day. I told you that guy was a wing nut. That is why I did not endorse him. He single handedly sabotaged the Hawthorne Park campaign. He was an agent provocateur. Either that or he was just plain stupid. His departure from the SSC had nothing to do with saving any trees.

Loser Steve says “I’m not mad at them, and I’m not even mad at the mayor,” he said. “Everybody has a right to vote the way they want and as we go forward I’ll just continue to work with them. Sometimes I’ll agree, most of the time I stand by myself. What’s the worst that can happen? I stand by myself. It’s already happened, right. You’ve seen council right, it’s usually eight to one, vote after vote after vote after vote.” Yeah why is that?

Doug McCallum explained “I am not surprised by Steven’s decision to split from the Safe Surrey Coalition,” McCallum stated. “What I find disappointing is his treatment of the voters who cast a ballot for him as a member of the Safe Surrey Coalition. We were very open, transparent and specific of what we stood for and intended to do if elected. Steven was fully aware of Safe Surrey’s platform and was more than happy to run an entire campaign with us. Since he’s been elected to council, he has conveniently forgotten the platform and the promises we made to the people of Surrey.” No kidding. Doug McCallum was very clear on his mandate to get rid of the LRT and the RCMP. Steve exploited McCallum's name and budget to get elected. As I said, he totally screwed up the Save Hawthorne park campaign. I was there. I saw it.

Israel's minority government failed over extending draft



This is kind of strange. The New York Times is reporting that "After the April 9 election, Mr. Netanyahu and his conservative Likud party had seemed poised to easily form a coalition with his right-wing and ultra-Orthodox allies from the previous government. But he got caught in a battle of wills between Avigdor Lieberman, the leader of a small ultranationalist and secularist party, Yisrael Beiteinu, and the powerful alliance of ultra-Orthodox parties over a new military service law that would conscript some ultra-Orthodox men."

When I was in Israel many years ago, I did not realize that the ultra Orthodox Jews known as the Haredim were exempt from military service. Everyone was required to serve in the military. Although I passionately support the freedom of religion I will say that the Haredim's refusal to serve in the military is the most hypocritical thing I have ever heard of. No offense.

It is no wonder that Liberman's bill to draft ultra-Orthodox Jews into the military was meeting opposition from the draft dodgers. I'm wondering if the Haredim ever read anything about a man named Joshua and his commander a guy named Moses. How Moses led them to battle and how Joshua took up the command after Moses died. I'm wondering if the Haredim have read anything about their history at all. Evidently not. They must have skipped over the part where the Levites were forced to take up the sword and slay 3,000 traitors from within before the children of Israel were prepared to go to battle against the foreign enemy.

If the Haredim don't want to serve in the military they can always do what the American draft dodgers did during the Vietnam war and come to Canada. However, if you want to live in Israel you have to serve in the military. It is what it is. If you want to be Jehovah's Witness then be Jehovah's Witness but if you want to be Jewish then be Jewish.

Israel’s Military Exemption for Ultra-Orthodox Is Ruled Unconstitutional

There's another story in the Israeli news that's even more disturbing. The Jewish community in Australia is calling for Israel to extradite Malka Leifer to face numerous charges of sexual abuse. There should be no hesitation in that extradition. Where there is no justice there will be no peace.

Dutch court bans Hells Angels



Reuters is reporting that "A Dutch court on Wednesday banned the Hells Angels motorcycle gang in the Netherlands, saying it had a track record of violent crime including the killing of rivals, shoot-outs, and drug and weapon offences. Prosecutors had sought the measure in response to hundreds of incidents in the Netherlands."

“The violence is often so serious and causes so much social unrest that it can be considered in contravention of social order,” the Utrecht District Court ruled, naming the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club Holland and the international organization to which it belongs."

"A spokesman for the national prosecutor’s office said this was believed to be the first time a country had banned the Hells Angels. The gang is regarded by the U.S. government as an international crime syndicate."

In Canada, Manitoba has designated the Hells Angels as a criminal organization. Nova Scotia has designated Bachus, a puppet club that sells drugs for the Hells Angels as a criminal org.

Update: When this blog first started I was big on pushing for criminal org status for the Hells Angels in Canada. However, after seeing the corruption and the extremism within the ATF in the US I'm not so sure about that any more. The David Giles declaration said not all members are involved with criminal activity but anyone who uses the name of the club for criminal activity must have that activity approved by the local executive.

That means if a Hells Angel member or associate is convicted of a crime that benefits the club, then the president of that chapter should also be charged. I would prefer to see that embraced in Canada than a blanket criminal organization status. That would help reduce crime because it would make a local executive much more careful about approving any criminal activity.

BTW it was a HA that was involved in the Toronto hit and run that seriously injured a 4 year old.
