Yesterday I received a phone call from my lawyer who is representing me in my class action against the Canadian Armed Forces and the Department of National Defence. The Department of Justice has responded and has agreed to take the matter before a case management judge. My lawyer expects the judge to agree to allow … Continue reading Going to Case Management

Depression and Anxiety
Almost 42 years ago in October of 1980 my brother my brother and I were sent for psychological review just after we had arrived at our new school on Canadian Forces base Griesbach. This was done after our teachers had noted our "odd behaviour" when we arrived at the new school. Our father was also … Continue reading Depression and Anxiety
Crimes were committed.
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.
The Chain of Command
Or How the Minister of National Defence Controls ALL aspects of the military Justice System. It may seem hard to believe, but the Minister of National Defence is probably one of the most powerful ministers in the Canadian Government. And I don't mean this because the minister controls the Department of National Defence and the … Continue reading The Chain of Command
The more things change, the more they stay the same
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

A little bit of good news.
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.
My two-cents on MPCC 2018-030
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
An update letter from the MPCC

“There are no military bases in Vancouver Centre”
Dr. Hedy Fry, the member of Parliament for Vancouver Centre has determined that because there are no military bases in Vancouver Centre, that she can't help people who were sexually abused as children.
Liability
Why would the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service be instructed to conduct such a weak investigation into the criminal actions of P.S. which P.S. committed on CFB Namao between June 20th, 1979 and June of 1980? It's not like P.S. would see any serious form of punishment if he were to have been charged in … Continue reading Liability
The News Media
I believe that the art of investigative journalism is dead in this country. If it's not out right dead at this point in time, then it's pretty well on death's doorstep. I believe that "media consolidation" and the move towards infotainment is responsible for the sad state of our media. Editors now direct their teams … Continue reading The News Media
Sorry Brats, the story is dead.
As the headline says, today I received the official word from Global News that there is no interest in pursuing our story. If I had to surmise why this is such a difficult story for the media to cover, I would have to say that it's the ignorance that is inherent in the media. The … Continue reading Sorry Brats, the story is dead.
The Man In The Sauna
On March 10th, 2020 I was contacted by an investigator with the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service Western Region office at Edmonton Garrison.This has to do with a second member of the Canadian Armed Forces that my babysitter, P.S., provided me to for sexual purposes. Who this man was, I don't know. Through paper work … Continue reading The Man In The Sauna
The Complete lack of Interest from the Media
The mucky-mucks at National Defence Head Quarters must be really pleased with how extremely disinterested the media is with the topic of child sexual abuse that occurred on the bases in Canada. I first had dealings with this reporter back in the summer of 2019. They seemed interested in the story, but they just couldn't … Continue reading The Complete lack of Interest from the Media

In preparation for sending the pertinent information to … Continue reading I Missed it……

From a job posting located at buyandsell.gc.cabuyandsell.gc.ca is a Government of Canada website … Continue reading The Military Police Complaints Commission
How embarrassing it must have been.
I can only imagine how terrified the brass within the Canadian Armed Forces were at the prospect of the Canadian public discovering that the military couldn't protect children living on secure military establishments. This was contained within the Department of Justice paperwork from when the DOJ represented the Mininster of National Defence in P.S. vs. … Continue reading How embarrassing it must have been.
Unfounded / Founded Not Cleared.
I submitted an Freedom of Information request with the Department of National Defence in July of 2018. I was looking for "copies of any reports, memos, letters, emails, or any other documents and communications indicating how many cases of child sexual abuse occurred pre-1998 and were brought to the attention of the CFNIS / MP … Continue reading Unfounded / Founded Not Cleared.
