This will be the first in a multi-part series on what has happened with the Coutts trial, and the many, many questions which flow from it. As we all know, the mainstream media are not going to ask these questions, nor tell you the truth about what went on, because that is not their job, and the Canadian government is going to do everything they can to pretend like the last four years didn’t happen, and absolve themselves of any responsibility.
WIth what’s going on in the UK, and the looming possibility of Bill C-63 passing in Canada, getting to the bottom of the conspiracy against the Coutts men is of grave import to rights Canadians hold dear, such as the right to freedom of expression, and to protest. –  Gord Magill

Blacklocks- RCMP Admit Credibility Gap

“The audit team found there has been limited transparency and public notice related to the RCMP’s use of emerging investigative technology,” said the Audit Of Emerging Investigative Technologies. “There have been instances where RCMP divisions have informed the media after the fact of successful investigative technology use.”

The RCMP had admitted since 2012 it used spyware capable of activating smartphone cameras and microphones, downloading emails and accessing all electronic records held on devices.

UnHerd- Covid-style controls against disorder are not the answer

John Woodcock, ex-Labour MP and Government advisor on political violence, argued this weekend that reinstating Covid-like restrictions would be the right response to the violent disorder taking place around the country following the dreadful events in Southport last week. At the same time, Keir Starmer has signalled moves that include more Government control of online information and the expansion of state surveillance through facial recognition.

“I’ve emphasized that we were the only jurisdiction in North America still punishing those critically needed workers,” said Falcon. “So what changed? Did some new science magically appear? Or is a looming election the only reason they’ve shifted direction?”

If another, more-virulent strain emerged, would Henry be prepared to restore pandemic restrictions, even if an election campaign were underway?

“Absolutely,” she insisted.

Blacklocks- $42M In 14 Days Or Else: Feds

The Agency on June 25 then issued a Requirement To Pay notice to the Province’s account holders, the Royal Bank of Canada. The Agency claims Saskatchewan now owes a total $55,592,632 in carbon taxes plus $237,140 interest.

“They started with the threats,” Attorney General Eyre said in a statement. The federal cabinet was “threatening us again with their favourite move when someone disagrees with them,” she said.

“They are sending the Canada Revenue Agency after the Province’s bank accounts,” said Eyre. “That is what they are doing.”

Update, by Kate:

The Saskatchewan Party says its application for a court injunction to stop the Canada Revenue Agency from collecting the federal carbon tax from the province has succeeded.

“The court ruled in our favour, blocking the federal government from unconstitutionally garnishing money, pending the full hearing and determination of the continuation of the injunction by the Federal Court,” Bronwyn Eyre, the provincial justice minister and attorney general said Monday.

Eyre said garnishing a provincial bank account violates Section 126 of Canada’s constitution. The issue will now go a full hearing.

That’s the Saskatchewan Government, you tools.

They Took Away The Rights

Shortly after Dattani was appointed to lead the [Canadian Human Rights Commission] in mid-June, National Post learned that in 2015 he had shared the stage with a member of an Islamic fundamentalist group and repeatedly lectured during “Israel Apartheid Week” at British universities about the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement. According to a Government of Canada factsheet, attempts to boycott and sanction Israel are one of its six core examples of antisemitism.

Shimon Fogel, the long-standing president of the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA), told the Post that the organization is “deeply concerned” about Dattani’s appointment given that he “has directly associated with individuals and groups affiliated with listed terror entities and has a history of making highly troubling antisemitic statements.” Fogel saw Dattani’s ascension to head the CHRC as underscoring “a crisis of confidence” with the body that “undermines our confidence in the Commission’s ability to adjudicate issues of hate and discrimination.”

Fogel said the controversy calls into question the justice ministry’s vetting process.

No, it doesn’t. He was exactly the kind of diversity hire they were looking for.

Trudeau’s Canada: Political Prisoners & Lawfare Abound

Lawfare Comes to Canada as the Coutts Four Get Their Day in Court | Opinion

A trial is currently underway in Canada, and the rights of every Canadian citizen are at stake. Tony Olienick and Chris Carbert are facing farcical charges stemming from their participation in a peaceful protest against Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau‘s COVID-19 response. It turns out, the United States is not the only country where the ruling political establishment is using lawfare to test the limits of the freedoms we all once took for granted. Olienick and Carbert may be average working-class men, but their trial is comparable to that of President Trump’s many legal battles; as in the U.S., the Canadian court system has been turned into a crucible upon which elite warfare is being waged against the masses—or their duly elected representatives.

Olienick and Carbert are the remaining two of a group of political prisoners arrested in Canada and held without bail since the Freedom Convoy in 2022. The Freedom Convoy was a populist revolt against Trudeau’s authoritarian approach to COVID-19 in the form of a mass act of civil protest led by truck drivers. To combat this peaceful protest, the largest of its kind in Canadian history, Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act to suspend civil liberties across Canada, freezing bank accounts and laying numerous spurious charges against hundreds of peaceful protesters.

Blacklocks mistake in going before the Federal Court was not being the Toronto Star.

The judge ruled Blacklock’s terms were “plainly visible” and clearly prohibited password sharing without permission. Blacklock’s even sent the password buyer two written notices with a number to call if they intended to “share or distribute content.” The judge dismissed it as irrelevant.

What passwords does it apply to?

Any kind at all. The rule applies to any ordinary password to websites, newspapers, video and music services, library databases, scientific or technical journals, peer-reviewed periodicals, you name it.

That part will get fixed in no time.
