“The law is an ass”
The British Columbia Law Society has swallowed the Kamloops lie

The Law Society of British Columbia is currently voting on whether to remove the following from its mandatory course for all lawyers in the province – “the discovery of an unmarked burial site on the former Kamloops Indian Residential School grounds.”
The following two images are from the Law Society of British Columbia.
The Law Society knows there was not a discovery, and the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc is no longer speaking of an unmarked burial site, to say nothing of a mass grave or the remains of hundreds of children. On May 23rd of this year it announced “the confirmation of 215 anomalies.”
That the Law Society is voting on whether it should keep a demonstrable lie – a lie rooted in bigotry against Christians – is reflective of how far our legal profession has drifted from the truth. As my father, a former Ontario chief justice, last said to me about my case before passing, all professions should get at the truth.
The Law Society is spreading calumny against Catholic Oblate priests and the Sisters of St. Ann who are the objects of the blood libel of having murdered and secretly buried 215 students at the school where they were conducting their life mission. The Kamloops band spreads calumny as well by still referring to “The Missing” without offering the name of a single missing child from a school that was at the heart of the reserve and near the centre of the City of Kamloops. No parent ever reported a missing child.
The Kamloops band has been used by the Prime Minister’s Office, which was consulted before the news story of the discovery of 215 children (“some as young as three”) in a mass grave was circulated around the world on May 27, 2021. Politicians of all stripes rushed to join the virtue-signalling chorus of “houses of horror” without asking for evidence – all MPs in the House of Commons on October 27, 2022 calling residential schools a genocide.
The law in Canada has become an embarrassment. The RCMP will not investigate what could be, according to some, the worst crime in Canadian history, but it will go after donors to the Trucker Convoy and put Tamara Lich in jail for 50 days.
But my case takes the cake for the violation of the principles of natural justice. I had no lawyer when cross-examined by investigators for both my employer and regulatory body. I was presumed guilty and told by a lawyer in cross-examination that I had “little entitlement to procedural fairness.”
After almost four years, I do not know my accuser(s) and have not been allowed witnesses or witness testimony. The allegation that saw me walked out of classroom and career has been changed five times. The sole evidence for this allegation is hearsay in the form of a handwritten note from the principal who had spoken with a counsellor who herself had spoken with a student in my class.
The allegation is that I stated “the deaths could not be called murder.” My employer, the Abbotsford School District, described it as “extremely serious misconduct.” Originally, it was that I said there was no intent to murder. Then I allegedly said it wasn’t murder. Then it was my alleged insensitive and inflammatory tone one day in class. Then it was that I allegedly didn’t support my school’s message of condolences. Then it was alleged that it was wrong for me, a history teacher, to be nuanced. Then it was that I said the deaths were comparable to the general child mortality rate at the time.
The worst allegation against me was that, while telling my students my wife had cancer, I allegedly said I wanted a better wife. This is a cruel characterization. All I told my students one day was I was leaving the school to be with my wife in hospital as she had to undergo a risky transplant.
As the poorhouse supervisor Mr. Bumble says in Dickens’ Oliver Twist, “If the law supposes that, the law is an ass — a idiot.”

In Canada it is now considered impolite to tell the truth about the secret burial and residential school “atrocity”claim. Anyone doing so will get the Jim McMurtry or Lynn Beyak treatment. This is not hyperbole. Our politicians, the RCMP and our mainstream media all know that the secret burial claim is nonsense - but none of them will say so. The fact that nonsense is now being taught as fact to our graduating lawyers chills me to the bone.
It is indeed a fact that trials have become more like an "Alice in wonderland tale" they bare no relation to proper justice that has been dispensed in Canadian Courts for the best part of 130 odd years. Lets face it in the pre Justin Trudeau era trials for murder were concluded within about a month in court other than an extremely unusual case ie Bernardo trial. Public Mischief trials ie Tamara & the peaceful Truckers case can take years and the current trial just ended will not have an answer for 6 months due to the Judge having to think on that for SIX MONTHS. My question to authorities is WHY? They need to explain when for years that have been telling us that Justice delayed is Justice denied and throwing hundreds of extremely serios case out after just months of delay!
1984 has indeed arrived and with a vengeance, for anyone that has read Catch 22 will understand this article describes a scenario almost identical. The very scary thing is that this is now happening in Canada on a daily basis.
I find lately that I am getting banned on social networks for making comments no harsher than those made in public on television or radio and in movies or sit comms, yes I use swear words on occasion but so what? Yes I have made many statements about this subject ever since they first announced it but like in this case i keep getting shut down from giving my opinion.
We are stuck with a Prime Minister who refuses to leave office knowing full well that he is despised by everyone in this country who is not a current Liberal fan, we are being run by what amounts to a Coup style Govt of two minority parties and as the author of this article states we have a House of Commons full of idiots who all swallowed an extremely ridiculous statement from an indigenous person of no authority that a genocide occurred with indian children over hundreds of years.
To date i have posted under my own name as I have always believed that my statements have been truthful and to the point regardless of the language I have used. Enough is enough from this date forward I will continue my statements 10 fold, BUT they will be under nom de plumes from now on with my digital record hidden by VPN and other means. Underground tactics will be employed, I suggest everyone else do the same because sure as God has little green apples THEY are coming for you too.
