Child sexual abuse in the Canadian Forces
This is my experience trying to receive justice from a system that is designed to keep secrets.
I can't go on with P.S., Captain McRae, Captain Totzke, my father, my social workers, other men who sexually abused me, and the never ending flashbacks of the abuse on Canadian Forces Base Namao bouncing around in my skull and popping up when least expected.
I was going to go after the media in this post, but I'll save slagging the media for the next post. I'm going to share some information in this post that I was going to keep quiet about until I found a lawyer willing to take on this matter. But after the most recent lawyer … Continue reading Crimes were committed.
So, it turns out that Minister Sajjan not only refused to allow the Canadian Forces Ombudsman to investigate complaints against General Jonathan Vance, but Sajjan also started to avoid communication with the Office of the Ombudsman. What is really disappointing about this whole sad affair is that it illustrates how much power is concentrated in … Continue reading The more things change, the more they stay the same
Back in November of 2020, the Military Police Complaints Commission released their final report of their review of the 2015 through 2018 portion of CFNIS investigation GO 2011-5754. Although it was just a review, and although the review had to be conducted as per rules that the Canadian Armed Forces shaped, the MPCC did find … Continue reading A little bit of good news.
In this post I will critique the Military Police Complaints Commission Final Report MPCC 2018-030. This will be a somewhat long read, but it will be worth it. I'm not going to critique each and every item in MPCC 2018-030. I'm just going to critique the items that I feel need to be critiqued or … Continue reading My two-cents on MPCC 2018-030
On Thursday July 30th, 2020 I was interviewed at the Vancouver Police Department headquarters at 2120 Cambie Street. This was in realtion to another even of abuse that occured on Canadian Forces Base Namao. So far my ratio with the CFNIS is 50/50. P.S. went down in flames. I don't think I'll ever ascertain exactly … Continue reading Another investigation
Well, I thought things at work would ease up with the Covid-19 pandemic. But it's been the exact opposite. Time that I thought that I would be spending at home has instead been spent at work verifying air flows and air pressures. I thought that I was going to be able to spend time posting … Continue reading COVID-19
Just another posting. Nothing too serious. The MPCC investigation into my complaint against the CFNIS is still ongoing. Unlike last time around, I was able to file an Access to Information request prior to making my final submission to the MPCC. What this means is that unlike my previous complaint to the MPCC, I have … Continue reading Just another posting
I finally finished with my submissions to the Military Police Complaints Commission. This time around I hope that things work out a little different. My first tango with the MPCC back in 2012 was the first time ever that I had dealt with an agency such as the MPCC. I had no lawyer, and no … Continue reading MPCC Second Complaint
I had a conversation with a lawyer a few days ago. Another one of these ex-JAG lawyer types. I've had calls with these ex-JAG lawyers before. And this call, just like the others before it got off on the wrong foot. See, Captain McRae was never supposed to have been given a courts martial for … Continue reading Lawyers and other musings.
The attitudes of society in general towards male victims of child sexual abuse has always been less than desirable. Males have always been seen to be the instigators of sexual assaults and never the victims of sexual assaults. If a male was he victim of a sexual assault, it was becuase he was weak, or … Continue reading Boys Beware
Trying to define the jurisdiction of the CFNIS and the military police is about as easy as trying to nail jello to the wall. Sadly, this is more to do with the failure of Parliament to close the holes in the National Defence Act than anything else. https://cfbnamao.files.wordpress.com/2019/10/standing-committee-on-national-defence.mp4 In 1987, the Crown of Canada took … Continue reading Jurisdiction of the CFNIS
One of two horrific flaws in the pre-1998 National Defence Act.
