Lloydminster Cocaine Bust

Local police arrested five individuals and seized a kilogram of cocaine and more than $5,000 in cash in two separate vehicle stops. Lloydminster RCMP GIS Cpl. Shayne Hartwell said they were able to arrest both the dealer and the supplier of the drugs.

"There is organized crime alive and well in Lloyd and it's part of the cocaine trade," said Hartwell. "We've been keeping an eye on what is going on and at the end of the day it is knowing your community and knowing the people within the community that you need to be watching for."

No names have been released but the first question is are they affiliated with the FreeWheelers or the Hells Angels? Half way between Edmonton and Saskatoon. It's pretty obvious who controls the cocaine trade in that area.

Pagans visit Rock Machine in New Brunswick

So why did four van loads of Pagan MC members come to New Brunswick to meet with some Rock Machine members and a few local drug dealers last month? That is one saggy ass logo. It would appear that the Pagans have been charged with trafficking Crystal meth on the East Coast. We don't need any of that in NB. Looks like they certainly would give the Hells Angel finger puppets a run for their money. Note the ss tattoo on the guy's neck.

The National Defense Authorization Act

This is it. The National Defense Authorization Act is being called the most traitorous act ever witnessed in the Senate, and the language of the bill is cleverly designed to make you think it doesn’t apply to Americans, but toward the end of the bill it essentially says it can apply to Americans ”if we want it to.”

We thought this could never happen in North America. We were wrong. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights binds the government. The Senate's violation of those sacred documents is indeed illegal. It creates a Guantánamo for US citizens. Obama is legally bound to veto it when he made a plead to honour, uphold and protect the US Constitution.

NDAA the End of Our Republic.

‘Occupy’ Protesters Listed As Domestic Terrorists.

Rootstrikers: Republic Lost

A blog reader recently sent me a few links to Lawrence Lessig and his book Republic, Lost: How Money Corrupts Congress - and a Plan to Stop It. In an interview with Charlie Rose he is asked: "That’s not a democracy in your judgment because the few are making the decisions because of the power of their money and influence."

Then responds: "Right. So our framers gave us what they called a Republic. And what they meant by a Republic was a representative democracy. And what Federalist 52 says is that a representative democracy would be a government dependent upon the people alone.

Now, whatever that means, what we know is congress has evolved a different dependency; a dependency upon the funders and that dependency is different and conflicting with the dependency upon the people because the funders are a tiny slice of the people. If you ask who in 2010, what percentage of Americans maxed out in a contribution in a congressional campaign, the answer is .05%. So Occupy Wall Street says we’re the 99%, that’s bad marketing. They should be saying we’re the 99.95% who don’t have access and influence inside the system because we are not the .05% with the extraordinary power that funders within the system have."

Who is this guy? He even quotes the Federalist Papers. All of a sudden we have someone who makes sense. He's a professor of law at Harvard. Yet he's smart, he's not arrogant, and most importantly he makes a lot of sense. Turns out he has his own blog and has started and activist group called Rootstrikers which claims Wall Street should buy stocks not politicians. He even quotes Michael Geist. Three cheers!

The name of his activist group appears to come from a quote by Henry David Thoreau which states: There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root. One would then assume that Rootstrikers are committed to striking at the root of evil.

Lawrence Lessig's point is how lobbyists can buy government. We clearly see the same thing happening within the Harper government. Lawrence Lessig has articulated the problem well which was also dramatized in Eddy Murphy's movie Distinguished Gentlemen. My focus's is how those bought votes are taking us away from democracy and how preserving the Constitution and the Bill of Rights is essential to preserving a democratic system.

I will add that the idea of the rich buying politicians is a scam in itself. Obviously the rich aren't going to share their wealth. I'm sure the banks didn't donate $75 billion to Harper's campaign even though he gave them that much of taxpayers money. For them it's a high yielding investment. Micheal Moore pointed out that by spending a few million dollars to buy Congress, Wall Street was given billions.

The key thing to remember is that it effects both political parties. Michael Moore was told to cool it when reporting about Senator Dodd yet he also reported stuff on Clinton.

Harper's Corporate Communism

I find Harper's name calling and the name calling of Gwyn Morgan, his Pee Wee Herman advisor somewhat ironic. It seems so much like the born again paid minister who passionately denounces homosexuality then gets caught with a gay prostitute. Harper said anyone who didn't vote for him were Socialists or Separatists. His Pee Wee Herman Corporate advisor claims that the Occupy movement will leave everyone poor because they are Communists trying to achieve a redistribution of wealth. Will the real Communist please sit down.

Setting the name calling and the propaganda aside, we need to look at historical facts. The fact is, Big Corporations and Big Banks funded the Communist Revolution. The Rothschilds funded Karl Marx.

"Probably no name symbolized capitalism more than Rockefeller. Yet that family has for decades supplied trade and credit to Communist nations. After the Bolsheviks took power, the Rockefellers' Standard Oil of New Jersey bought up Russian oil fields, while Standard Oil of New York built the soviets a refiner and made an arrangement to market their oil in Europe. During the 1920's the Rockefellers' Chase Bank helped found the American-Russian Chamber of Commerce, and was involved in financing Soviet raw material exports and selling Soviet bonds in the U.S."

Before Winston Churchill became Prime Minister of Great Britain, he acknowledged a conscious effort of wealthy people to install a communist dictatorship in Russia.

"The Bolsheviks were not a visible political force at the time the Czar abdicated," Allen wrote. "And they came to power not because of the downtrodden masses of Russia called them back, but because very powerful men in Europe and the United States sent them in. "They [Lenin and Trotsky] joined up, and, by November, though bribery, cunning, brutality and deception, they were able (not to bring the masses rallying to their cause, but) to hire enough thugs and make enough deals to impose out of the gun barrel what Lenin called 'all power to the Soviets.'"

According to Senator Barry Goldwater, Chase Manhattan built a truck factory in Russia which could also be used to produce armored vehicles such as tanks and even rocket launchers. Perloff echoed, "American technology helped the Soviets construct the $5 billion Kama River truck factory ... [which was] successfully converted by the Kremlin to military purposes."

Wall Street continued to aid the Russian communists as they supplied the Vietnamese communists that Americans were fighting in Vietnam, says Allen. In the late 60s Rockefeller and other industrialists built synthetic rubber plants and an aluminum factory totaling about 250 million dollars. Professor Sutton observed, "these American capitalists were willing to finance and subsidize the Soviet Union while the Vietnam War was underway, knowing that the Soviets were supplying the other side."

An article appeared in the New York Times on January 16, 1967, which carried the headline, Eaton Joins Rockefellers to Spur Trade with Reds. Perloff summed up the story, "The ensuing story noted that the Rockefellers were teaming up with tycoon Cyrus Eaton, Jr., who was financing for the Soviet block the construction of a $50 million aluminum plant and rubber plants valued at over $200 million." He added, "The Chase, which maintains a branch office at 1 Karl Marx Square in Moscow, has gained notoriety for financing projects behind the Iron Curtain." Professor Sutton, Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution

It doesn't take much digging to find that Wall Street, Big Corporations and the big Banks funded hard line Communism so the wealthy could continue to oppress the working class. This is Harper's Communism. Paying lip service to small business but abandoning small business in favor of large corporations. Getting rid of the Wheat Bord was to help muscle out the small private farmer and aid the large corporate monopolies.

Gwyn Morgan and Stephen Harper like to do a lot of name calling, trash talking and pointing the finger but the truth is, they are the Leninists not the people who pay taxes, care about the environment, support individual rights and freedoms and oppose trade agreements that erode national sovereignty. Throwing away the Bill of Rights is the final step.

The Capitalist-Communist Connection

Our Awful Situation

Grow Op in 100 Mile House

A commercial marijuana grow operation housing more than $2 million worth of pot has been dismantled near 100 Mile House. Mounties raided a rural property near Abel Lake at 105 Mile House on Tuesday and seized the marijuana, which police estimate had a street value of $2.7 million, said RCMP spokesman Cpl. Dan Moskaluk in a release.

Also seized was about $1 million worth of property, including four trucks, a backhoe and two large commercial diesel generators on triple-axle trailers. Three men, two from the Lower Mainland and one from Vancouver Island, were arrested at the scene and are facing charges for drug production.

Wasn't there a new Hells Angels clubhouse in 100 Mile House?

The Human side of James Riach

As I mentioned earlier, James Riach finally appeared on the radar after walking away from the Jonathon Bacon / Larry Amero shooting in Kelowna. Kim Bolan found him in court trying to get his armoured SUV back after it was seized. Ya gotta admit he has good reason to want to be driving around in an armoured car.

I don't know James Beoch but I do know he is human. Just like everyone else including Larry Amero. None of us are bullet proof. We know that James Riach was at one time close with Anton. The police claim when they raided his shared condo and seized numerous firearms, they found a picture of Anton in his bedroom. They were at one time close.

We know that James Riach attended the famous Castle Fun Park meeting in kevlar with the Bacon brothers. Obviously if you're associated with the Bacon brothers you need kevlar. That historic meeting at castle fun park no doubt was a prelude to the famous Surrey Six murder when two innocent bystanders were intentionally executed. That incident is what set this all off. The public outrage, this web site, the ongoing gang war. Shooting each other is one thing but endangering the public and intentionally executing innocent bystanders is another.

At the time of the meeting James was a member of the Independent Soldiers who as we all know are no longer independent. They are Hells angels puppets. They don't like to be called that but that is what they are. The Hells Angels used subtle alliances and brazen murder to take over that gang. Now we have to wipe Randy Naicker's drool when ever he's seen with Larry Amero grabbing a feel of his pecs.



So James Riach was at the Castle Fun Park meeting with the Bacon brothers before they plotted the Surrey Six murder as a representative of the Independent Soldiers. The alliance between the Independent Soldiers and the Bacon brothers is not new nor is the alliance between the Independent Soldiers and the Hells Angels. We were surprised to hear Larry Amero was with Jonathon bacon when he was shot dead. Before that time they were trying to keep that association secret. Now that much of the UN leadership are in jail it appears they went very public with that secret alliance.

My point is, James Beoch has a human side. I doubt he was directly involved in the Surrey Six murder other than showing support for the Bacon brothers with their intention of taking over the leadership of the Red Scorpions and turning it from a UN affiliated gang to a Hells angels affiliated gang, with them in charge of course. More political opportunists from the suburb's.

Dennis Karbovanec was the one who confessed to murdering Chris Mohan in the Surrey Six. To see him smiling in court was sickening.



Obviously the ones who are ultimately responsible for that pivotal murder were the ones supplying and supporting the Bacon brothers in their take over of the Red Scorpions - the Hells Angels. That triggered a public gang war between the UN and the Bacon brothers. Bacon brother associate Kevin LeClair was shot dead with automatic weapons outside the Langley Mall. He was also tied to Revolution which was also tied to the Hells Angels so we clearly saw the not so hidden association between the Hells Angels and the Bacon brothers way back then.



In response, Nicole Alemy, the mother who was friends with the owner of the condo the Red Scorpions were living in when they were murdered was hunted down and executed with her young child in the car. That means the two most ruthless gang related murders in Surrey are the result of the Bacon brothers and the not so secret backing they had within the Hells Angels.

Now the Hells Angels are keeping their word of eliminating all the competition in Surrey by murdering everyone from the Durry Dak Pack and anyone else in town who sells drugs for anyone but them. It's a cruel shell game consumed with greed.

We're all human. We all wanna make some cheddar and provide for our family. Yet when that drive to provide turns to greed and is about driving a more outrageously expensive ugly car where you are willing to kill a former friend over the right to sell crack then something has gone seriously wrong. Time for a little Ghetto Gospel and time to make some serious changes.

Targeted shooting in Delta

Just after 8 p.m. Tuesday night a Mercedes SUV with two male occupants in their 20s was sprayed with several bullets as it drove down the 9200-block of 114th Street by unknown suspects in a red sports car.

Of the two shot at, one is known to police and has gang affiliations Delta police said. "At this point, we're not going to reveal who they are," said Delta police spokesman Const. Ciaran Feenan. “This was a targeted shooting, There is no concern for the public’s safety.” He means he has no concern for the public's safety. This is outrageous. We have made zero progress since the Surrey Six murder.

Eileen Mohan is a much better person than I am. She was the one that made a public appeal for a web site to identify known gang members. She said they were living next door to gang members and did not know it. Had they know, their wonderful son might still be alive. The Abbotsford police department promised us a web site identifying known gang members but they never did it. No one else has bothered.

Now we go to the other extreme where the police knowingly withhold information from the public. They know which gang one of the two in the SUV that was shot at is, but they are refusing to let the public know because they clearly don't give a fuck about public safety. Someone in a red sports car fired several shots at a SUV and somehow that doesn't jeopardize public safety. That is really offensive.

Rock Machine shot at in Winnipeg

Two homes in the 1000 block of Beauty Avenue were hit with gunfire Tuesday night in what sources say was most definitely a targeted attack linked to organized crime. The Free Press has learned two high-ranking members of the Rock Machine were inside one of the homes at the time bullets started flying. It appears the other residence that was struck was simply a case of poor aim by the unidentified shooter. Looks like the Big Red Machine just can't let it go. Give it a rest in December you heartless pricks.

The latest Edmonton shooting victim has been identified as Ashneil Singh. Looks like the newspaper got that from facebook not from the Edmonton police.

BC Liberals extend RCMP contract

Why is this not surprising? All those articles in the Vancouver Province about how we need a Regional Police force fell on deaf ears when it came to the Christy Crunch covering up what the RCMP has on her and the BC Liberals with BC Rail and the Basi Virk drug charges.

Gwyn Morgan is an Idiot

The Vancouver Province ran another absurd column today about Occupy. This time it was a guest column from Gwyn Morgan. Turns out Gwyn's a guy and he sure loves his Pee Wee Herman tie. The title is Occupy's proposals will make everyone poor. Clearly this guy is on crack. You can tell by that glassy look in his eye and his poor choice of wardrobe.

Once again he labels everyone supporting the Occupy protest as Communists. After all, everyone who didn't vote for Stephen Harper is a socialist or a separatist so they claim. He goes on and on about the redistribution of wealth. That is not what this is about. He is not listening.

Stopping investment fraud will not make everyone poor. Refusing to do so will. Recently the fact that most of the politicians in the US legally get away with insider trading made the news. Stopping insider trading will not make everyone poor. The Greek financial crisis was the result of investment fraud. The Bank bailouts were also the result of fraud. This kind of corporate theft is what's making the hard working tax payers poor by stealing from them. Committing fraud to create a manufactured emergency then using tax dollars to replenish what they stole. Gwyn Pee Wee Herman will not change that fact with his verbal nonsense.

Gwyn Morgan is not a conservative. He is a corporate neo con. Bill Tieleman claims he is Christy Clark's transition advisor. Transitioning us from in the frying pan with Gordon Campbell to straight into the fire with Christy Crunch.

"It is my earnest submission that signing the Kyoto Protocol would go down in history as one of the most damaging international agreements ever signed by a Canadian prime minister." Gwyn Morgan, Christy Clark transition team advisor. Sustainability is a civic duty. Refusing to be accountable is irresponsible.

The neo con emerges when they abandon small business in practice and only pay them lip service. The neo con emerges when they become consumed in corporate greed. Letting huge corporations rape the planet at will all in the name of increased profit. Everyone has to pay their fair share. Donald Trump paying no taxes while a bus driver pays a significant amount more taxes is wrong. Just as making small business pay the bulk of the business tax and reducing the huge corporation tax bill to zero is wrong. It's not about the redistribution of wealth. It's about getting rid of the freeloaders who refuse to pay any tax while they exploit the general public.

This guy is a serious fruit loop. The Tyee claims he supports the NAU and all the erosion of individual rights, freedom and sovereignty that brings with it. Being an advisor to both Christy Clark and Stephen Harper is a huge red flag. In fact, there are some interesting conservative arguments about how the corporate Rockefeller's are the real communists trying to enslave the general public and rob them of their freedom.

Another Edmonton Murder

Edmonton City Police are probing a suspicious death after a 21-year-old man was found on the outskirts of the city, suffering from several gunshot wounds and at least one stab wound. Police were called to the location on 170th Street south of Ellerslie Road shortly after noon Tuesday after the man called police from his cell phone, asking for help, but the man wasn't able to give his location.

"He said, 'I've been stabbed.' He didn't know where he was," said Inspector Brian Nowlan. "We could tell he was obviously in distress. He just kept saying he's hurt and needs help." It took police about a half-hour to locate the man, who was found lying on the roadway about 50 feet from his white sedan, which was parked among several outbuildings on an abandoned farm in a remote area along 170th Street.

He was still holding the phone, trying to keep in contact with someone as he fought for his life. The man was taken by STARS to the Royal Alexandra Hospital, where he died. Edmonton Very sad. Police are treating the death as suspicious. If it is deemed a murder, it will be the city's 44th of the year.

Suspicious death? I still don't understand how they can say that with a straight face. Are they trying to cover something up or just look like complete idiots? Last month two men were found dead in a bullet ridden SUV. Police hadn't determined if it was in fact a homicide and treated that death as suspicious. What's suspicious is the EPS using Groucho Marx to write their press releases.

Joe Kapp and Angelo Mosca

Well there was a little senior citizen Grey cup agro. Joe Kapp and Angelo Mosca were at a Grey Cup luncheon. Joe Kapp jokingly offered Angelo Mosca a flower as a peace offering and Angelo said on mic cram it up your ass. He tried to lighten things up a bit by tickling him with the flower. Angelo pushes him back then once he was back he knocks JK's glasses off with his cane. JK then drops him. Kinda sad. Kinda bizarre. Some people just can't take a joke. I think we just get grumpy when we get older.

The Shell Game

We all remember that old shell game. The hand is quicker than the eye and what not. We were recently discussing the Hells angels selling cocaine in Grande Prairie and other towns and how they keep changing the name of the puppet club to distance themselves from the actual drug trafficking despite the fact that they are the ones supplying it and grooming the puppets to work for them.

In Northern Alberta the White Boy Posse was selling drugs for the Hells angels across northern Alberta. When they were busted Grand Prairie came up with the Baseball Team. Sounds innocent enough but they were just another group selling drugs for the Hells Angels. I'm told they're even starting to see some Hali Crew in Grand Prairie as an offshoot of the Baseball Team. Hali is short for Halifax. They started cropping up in Halifax along with the Darksiders as well as Bachus and the Anarchy bikers. All Hells Angel puppets picking up where the others left off. Hali Crew in GP would confirm Kelowna's involvement. David Giles is from Halifax.

Now they say there's even talk about some Independent Soldiers from Prince George coming to GP. That would be another Hells angels puppet club. Prince George is a prime example of how the Hells angels use puppet clubs and finger puppets like a shell game to distract the media and the police from their involvement. The police tell us that the Hells angels control the drug trade in Prince George. First we had the Renegades as a long time puppet club there. They in turn over saw the crew who sold crack for the Hells Angels in PG.

After the Crew started getting some bad press over cutting off fingers for drug debts most of the crew crossed over to the Independent Soldiers. It was just a name change to confuse liability. The same people were in charge. The Game Tight Soldiers started to appear and at first we thought they were a rival. Until Kim Bolan along with the Gang Task Force found the head of the Game Tight Soldiers riding with the Renegades and wearing a strikers partial patch with them. He's gone but the GTS are still affiliated with the Renegades. There's a trial under way for a gang rape they have been charged with in that clubhouse.

The purpose of all these shell companies is to hide the Hells angels involvement. It really is quite effective. It even had Pat Fogherty confused. Although, word is he has been confused all along. You know another group that uses shell companies to hide their business? The CIA. Stay with me now. We know the CIA do exist. We know they use a maze of shell companies to hid their classified business. I think it would be interesting to map a few CIA shell companies to chart just what they have been up to. Especially after the news of Operation Fast and Furious.



Lets take a look at Lake Resources and TransWorld Armaments Corp. TransWorld Armaments Corp, was a Canadian company used to smuggle arms to Nicaragua in the extended version of Iran Contra. The Montreal Gazette reported in May 1988 that John Rugg, a former Vermont police chief and a manager at Century Arms Inc., told a U.S. Senate committee investigating illegal weapons shipments to the Contra rebels in Nicaragua, that Century International Arms and Trans World Arms Ltd., which both have offices in Montreal, were involved in shipping grenades, surface-to-air-missiles, rifles and ammunition from Canada to Central America in violation of Canadian policy of non-military intervention in the Americas.

Lake Resources was a shell company run by Oliver North. Saudi arms dealer Albert Hakim pleaded guilty November 21, 1989, to a misdemeanor of supplementing the salary of Oliver L. North. Lake Resources Inc., in which Hakim was the principal shareholder. He also pleaded guilty to a corporate felony of theft of government property in diverting Iran arms sales proceeds to the Nicaraguan contras and other activities. Hakim was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Gerhard A. Gesell on February 1, 1990, to two years probation and a $5,000 fine; Lake Resources was ordered dissolved.

Richard Secord went into business with Hakim, co-founding in 1983 Stanford Technology Trading Group International (STTGI). Using a complex web of secret Swiss bank accounts and shell corporations managed by Willard Zucker at Compagnie de Services Fiduciaires (CSF) in Geneva, they built a lucrative Enterprise from covert-operations business assigned to them by Lt. Col. Oliver L. North.

There is a huge maze of CIA shell companies that would indeed be interesting to document and track. Yet it's clear the purpose of these shell companies were to hide money laundering and arms smuggling. Lake Resources was tied to the BCCI banking fraud that was also tied to the CIA. And of course, how did these countries pay for the arms that were being smuggled to them? With cocaine. That's why they needed shell companies to launder the money.

Let's not forget Arthur Porter, the chair of Canada's spy watchdog committee who recently resigned that position among many he held, amid reports he had questionable ties to a lobbyist named Ari Ben-Menashe based in Montreal.

Mr. Ben-Menashe, a former Israeli government employee, was arrested in the United States in 1989 and charged with illegally attempting to sell three military transport airplanes to Iran. He went to trial and was acquitted in 1990; a jury believed his account, that he had simply acted on orders from his government in Israel to attempt the aircraft sale. He then wrote a memoir called Profits of War, filled with accounts of international espionage and conspiracies he says he either participated in or was privy to.

Harper pulls out of Kyoto

Speaking of sustainability, the Harper government has sunk to a new low. After a mother and daughter take their personal pleadings to stop asbestos to Ottawa, the Harper government decides to pull out of the Kyoto Protocol which is trying to limit emissions in the environment. The CONservatives plan on announcing their move before Christmas. What a shameful disgrace for the nation.

Hells Angels Puppets in Grande Prairie

It appears things are heating up in Grand Prairie Alberta outside of Edmonton. Remembrance day 2010 Brian MacFarlane was murdered in Grand Prairie. He was beaten and stabbed and later died of injuries. It was confirmed a homicide. Brian was associated with Shaun Thexton from the Baseball team that is affiliated with the Hells angels. Shaun was recently arrested in Grande Prairie's largest cocaine bust.

It appears that Shaun is in the same prison as the accused in Brian MacFarlane's murder who are now on trial in Grand Prairie. Christopher Ost was charged with first degree murder while Darcy Wanihandi was charged with second degree murder. Norman Chase Smith later turned himself in.

Smith, Noskiye and Wanihandi had their charges lessened to manslaughter from second-degree murder, while Ost had his charge of first-degree murder dropped to second-degree murder after defense counsel and the Crown agreed on a consent to committal for the downgraded charges. A publication ban imposed by the court disallows details heard in the preliminary hearing to be published until after the trial takes place or the charges are dropped.



Interesting to note that the Hells Angels Baseball team took over the GP cocaine trade after the Edmonton Hells Angels White Boy Posse were busted. One source claims the Baseball team are connected to the Kelowna Hells Angels while it appears the latest cocaine bust in Vernon that took over for the Vernon Greeks connected to the Calgary Hells angels is now connected to the Edmonton Hells Angels. It is amazing how fast the Hells angels keep expanding. As soon as one puppet club gets arrested they create another one, sometimes two. If the Victoria cocaine ring gets heat, they start bringing it in from Saskatchewan. The point is the Hells Angels are the driving force behind the cocaine trade and the violence associated with it.



One source claims Brian MacFarlane was an enforcer for the Baseball Team. Their accusations of Brian's accused murderers being cowards is somewhat ironic. Locals claim the Baseball team would regularly get one guy alone and beat the tar out of him 4 on 1. Some speculate that Brian's murder was in retaliation for one of those vicious beatings.

Mounties investigate Michael Riconosciuto and the PROMIS Software

Here's an interesting article about two Mounties investigating Michael Riconosciuto and the PROMIS software. No, Michael Riconosciuto is not a mobster tied to the Rizzuto family in Montreal but he is a convicted felon in prison for drug trafficking. The interesting part is who he worked for before he went to jail. He's a computer genius and was working for the CIA. He helped them modify the PROMIS software.

Now there's been a lot of talk about this PROMIS software that even ties in to Mr. Bill in Arkansas. They claim the CIA stole the software. Although I'm sure it's relevant to the person they stole it from, that's not they key issue. What's most relevant is what the PROMIS software was and what it did.

The PROMIS software was a Trojan horse. It was supposed to help countries organize their files. Yet it contained a spyware script that let the CIA spy on their "allies" that used the software and access all their police files. OK. OK the CIA selling a Trojan horse software to their allies to let them spy on them isn't really earth shattering. One would expect as much from the likes of the CIA.

The interesting thing is, Michael Riconosciuto worked for the CIA and helped them modify it. Now all of a sudden he's in jail for drug trafficking. I find that very suspect. I watched an interview an Australian news agency did with him on Youtube. I find Michael Riconosciuto to be a very credible witness with many interesting things to say. Ted Gunderson, a former FBI agent supported him. Unfortunately Ted passed away last summer.

The conclusion of the Mounties investigation? The dejected officer shakes his head. "We got further than anyone else ever did on this case," he says, "and nobody outside of law enforcement will ever know what we found because no one in law enforcement can ever tell anyone what we found."

Harpers' Demilitarization

An article on Sympatico asks Is Harper trying to increase Canada's military might? My knee jerk response was after cutting half a billion dollars to Veteran affairs, most certainly not. Yet the article talks about Thursday's celebration of Canadian Forces' contribution to the NATO mission in Libya.

The celebratory event, which was attended by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Defence Minister Peter MacKay as well as a host of military officials, included a flypast by CF-18 fighter jets, a 21-gun salute and the awarding of a Meritorious Service Cross (Military Division) to Lt.-Gen. Charles Bouchard, the Canadian air force general who commanded the NATO mission in Libya.

What's more, not only did Canada play a significant part in Libya, in the past few weeks the prime minister has also suggested he would commit Canada to any potential Israeli-American action to take out nuclear bomb-making facilities in Iran.

Where to begin. Canada's involvement in the Libya mission was shameful. We went in to enforce a cease fire and we started bombing one side. We said Gaddafi was a dictator yet France and England had been doing business with him for years. Gaddafi even contributed to Sarkozy's political campaign. Unlike Syria or Saudi Arabia where the government was firing on unarmed protesters, the protesters in Libya took up arms and Gaddafi fought back. That mission was about oil just like Iraq.

Harper supported the invasion of Iraq. Which I might add was based on a malicious, premeditated lie about them having weapons of mass destruction. That mission was a moral tragedy and a huge tax payer fraud embezzling millions into private conflicted companies like Haliburton. Supporting the mission in Iraq would simply have been the wrong thing to do, morally and financially. Spending millions of tax dollars on wars for oil, then slashing pensions and public services is just plain wrong.

Now we have the Iran propaganda and Harper is drooling at the opportunity to portray himself as some kind of military force at the risk of being a corporate blackwater coward. Canada wants to be seen as peacekeepers not as bullies. Even those good God fearing Canadians who voted for Harper and want Canada to be strong and free don't want Canada to become militarily corrupt and start selling Iraq chemical weapons to use on Iran.

England got involved in Iran's politics years ago in Operation Ajax and convinced the Americans to assist them in a coo for oil. MI 6 were caught red handed giving false information to the media about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. We are now supposed to believe a word they say about Iran? After Operation Ajax? I don't think so.

Canada is selling China, India and Pakistan Candu nuclear reactors. Canada is giving those countries the means and technology to use nuclear weapons. "Confronting" Iran, if those allegations do in fact have any truth to them are nothing but hypocritical at best if not suspect. The jets Harper wants to buy are a conflict of interest from a company one of his candidates lobbied for. Spending millions on a huge fleet of jets to commit corporate murder not civilian liberation while cutting millions from soldiers and civilians pensions is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Yes Harper was elected but his actions and his words are very far apart. Getting elected on a tough on crime position then cutting funding for the RCMP is just one of many examples. Wars based on lies is yet another.

Vancouver Mayors support Pot and the Black Door

The Vancouver Sun is confirming what I heard on the radio this morning. Mayor Gregor Robertson of Vancouver has joined four former city mayors in support of legalizing marijuana. He tweeted Thursday night: "Good to see 4 Vancouver ex-mayors calling for end of cannabis prohibition. I agree, we need to be smart and tax/regulate."

I don't want to be too cynical but I have some serious concerns. Which of those mayors were in charge when Vancouver City Hall bought the Drake Hotel from the Hells Angels to turn it into social housing? They gave the Hells Angels $2 million more than it was worth. You can't even call it a bribe because they didn't get anything in return. It was simply a $2 million misappropriation of social housing funds. Once again the DTES residents get screwed.

Let's see, Gregor Robertson was elected mayor November 2008 and the purchase of the Drake Hotel from the Hells Angels was in 2007. That would be when Sam Sullivan was mayor when the NPA formed a majority on City council. Legalizing pot is one thing but handing over $2 million marked for social housing to a criminal organization is another.

Which brings us back to the Black door. I've written about the Black door, twice, make that three times and notified the Gang Task Force. Nothing has been done about it. Freddy claims the VPD are well aware of it and let it operate. He claims they told them to shut down during the Olympics but let them open up again right after. Today, the Black door was the revolving door. People were in and out as it was doing major business.

Letting the Hells Angels sell pot is one thing but letting them use violence to control the market is another. They are not allowed to sell pot in the Amsterdam cafe. If they do, the city will shut them down. Then why does the City let the Hells Angels sell pot across the street at the Black door and the Vancity Bulldog Cafe? Letting one but not the other is wrong. In fact it is suspect.

My question is, when the Vancouver mayors say they want pot regulated, I have to ask by who? The Hells Angels? That is who the City is currently letting regulate it. Claiming that legalizing pot will eliminate organized crime is nonsense. Gambling is legal and there's plenty of organized crime involved with that.

Don't get me wrong, I much rather see them smoking pot in east van than crack but that is just on one corner. On another corner you can buy crack, another corner crystal meth and another corner you can buy heroin. All controlled and regulated by the Hells Angels. That is a massive amount of money changing hands. The City is fully aware of the problem because on welfare day they line up for their crack like for a boxing day sale. Instead of arresting the obvious dealer, they hand out free needles and crack pipes. This is inherently wrong.

Arresting everyone else but letting the Hells angels sell drugs is absolutely bizarre. Yet that is what City hall is now doing. So my question has merit. When the mayors of Vancouver say they want to regulate pot I'm forced to ask who they want to regulate it - the Hells Angels?

It's kind of strange that they be launching this public campaign right after a federal election when the Conservatives were given a majority government. It's kind of like the Rogue Page standing in Parliament with a Stop Harper sign right after he was elected. Shouldn't you be doing that before an election? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for free speech and I totally agree speaking out against certain policies of an elected government is not only a right but a civic duty. Yet the minority does not over rule the majority just because they yell louder.

At one time, Quebec Separatism was a huge issue with a huge following. It was hovering right around 49% for and 51% against. It was very close and was a significant issue. Yet just because the minority yell louder doesn't mean they are the democratic majority.

I fully agree that both extremes are absurd. One one side we have the 49% screaming for the legalization of pot. On the Other side we have the Harper government implementing mandatory minimum sentences for growing pot and demand the provinces pay for their legislation. Somewhere in the middle we have 69% of the population that says putting all those resources into incarcerating people for growing pot is a waste of time and taxes.

Legalizing pot would make it way more popular. Everyone would be pulling out the blunts and saying party! It's Mardi Gra! I'm not sure that would be such a great thing. Although there is a huge difference between pot and crack or meth, there are a lot of people out there that smoke way too much pot. Becoming potheads isn't something to brag about either. It still boils down to extremes and special interest trying to promote their own agenda.

Meanwhile we can all agree too many people are dying from the gang war. I'm just saying legalizing all drugs is irresponsible and legalizing pot most certainly won't stop the Hells angels from using violence to control or as the mayors say, "regulate" it.

My appeal for common ground is to leave the status quo, get rid of mandatory minimum sentences for growing pot and actually implement mandatory minimum sentences for violent crime and for selling hard drugs like crack or crystal meth. We see them selling crack on the corner. Arresting the crack dealers for selling crack not the users and putting them in jail for three months is not excessive. It is a goal within reach. And I still think that arresting everyone else for selling pot but letting the Hells Angels do it is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Salvatore Montagna found dead outside Montreal

The body of an alleged Mafia boss, who U.S. authorities said once headed New York's notorious Bonanno crime family, has been fished out of a river near Montreal. Salvatore Montagna's body was found in the Assomption River Thursday morning, in Charlemagne, northeast of the city.

Nicknamed Sal The Iron Worker, Montagno owned and operated a successful steel business in the U.S. The FBI once called him the acting boss of the Bonanno crime family – prompting one of New York's tabloids to dub him the "Bambino Boss" because of his rise to power in his mid-30s. His death is the latest in a series of Mafia-related killings and disappearances over the last two years. Montagna was considered a contender to take over the decimated Rizzuto family.

Montagna was born in Montreal but raised in Sicily and, although he moved to the United States at 15, he never obtained U.S. citizenship. The married father of three was deported to Canada from the United States in 2009 because of a conviction for refusing to testify before a grand jury on illegal gambling.

He pleaded guilty to the minor charge, but it made him ineligible to stay in the U.S. Because he is a Canadian citizen, Ottawa couldn't refuse his re-entry into the country, and Montagna crossed the border without any trouble. His arrival in Montreal occurred just months before members of the Rizzuto family began being killed.

Let's not forget, the New York Times quoted an FBI document wherein FBI informant Frank Lino claims he was introduced to Alfonso Gagliano at a mob meeting in Montreal where he was told Gagliano was a politician and a made member of the mafia in Montreal connected to the Bonno and Gambinno crime families in New York.

Let's not forget how the Sixth family at one time worked with the Hells Angels as well. With friends like them, who needs enemies?

One media outlet is reporting that Salvatore Montagna was next in line to take over for the Rizzuto family as was Raynald Desjardins who was shot at September 2011. His bodyguard was charged in that shooting. Kinda like how Peter Scarcella was just a driver for a mob boss named Paul Volpe. "Someone" his boss knew shot him in the back and left him in the trunk of a car. That's when Scarcella took over for his boss.

Peter Scarcella hooked up with Toronto Hells Angel Paris Christoforou in that botched hit on Mike Modica at a Toronto sandwich shop. CBC claims that among the people working for Peter Scarcella is Mike Marrese, who runs the mortgage fraud scams for Scarcella. Rizzuto family timeline.

Interesting to note that the Rizzuto family has been deeply involved with cocaine trafficking and is being hunted down and wiped out by non Sicilians. The Hells Angles have been associated with them and are also primarily involved with cocaine trafficking.
