HE'S BACK!!!! Fascist Quebecois Dan Bussieres orders Iron Fence at the New Brunswick Legislature!!!!
...and I believe he mellowed down the last few months....I hardly blogged Dan Bussieres these days because he was VERY quiet!!!
But last week, I noticed another Fence is going up at the New Brunswick Legislature.
I believe it's a trick to arrest certain New Brunswickers < I wonder who? > who takes a short cut via the Legislature.
This is a plan of Dan Bussieres and the Racists Members of the Fredericton Police Force to arrest New Brunswickers.
Truly stay tuned!!! DAN IS BACK!!!!!
Here's a video -
Fredericton Police Officer Const.Cherie Campbell was in Maine to collect items for a Charity Event when she was charged for Shoplifting!!!!
I was told about this last night.
Can you imagine being suspended without pay for something like this?
We should suspend the crooked cops of the Fredericton Police Force who tickets the minorities who dares to exercise so they can live longer or fire the Cops who accuse innocent citizens to be Pedophile!!
CTV JOURNALIST DAVID BELL TO LEAVE CTV ON OCTOBER 12TH!!!
My God???? They're all leaving!!!!...:)...Why????

MEET THE MOST HONEST CITIZEN IN FREDERICTON!!!!
This morning while at King's Place, I was enjoying a nice MacDonald's cafe.
Someone sat down at my table and I got distracted.
Once home, I noticed that my wallet was gone. I began to search all over my little place < like this video >
I wanted to go voting today and I also had to drive a car for a friend.
WHAT A TIME TO LOSE MY WALLET!!!!
I decided to return to King's Place and waited for the cleaner < don't know her name > to finish a chat.
I asked - By any chance? Did you find a wallet?
She answered - Yes...I gave it to Security!!!
WOW!!!! WHAT A RELIEF....I gave the girl a little hug and thanked her VERY much!!!! < I believe I even kissed her hand >..:)
Yes...We have some GOOD HONEST citizen in this City!!!...:)
THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!

Most of you know Charles Leblanc. He covered all our fracking protests ( and more) - and the video & photos he took were invaluable to our movement.
He's in trouble - see DG piece below. That piece includes a link - http:// charlesleblancdefencefund.com - to his Defense Fund. If we all sent $10.00 - that would be $1000.00 towards the goal of $5000. to get him a lawyer. If we all sent $25.00 - he'd have it made.
Thank you for your consideration
D.G. Oct, 1/15 Better Legal Aid access saves taxpayers' money, improves justice system
---------- Better Legal Aid access saves taxpayers’ money, improves justice system
ANDRÉ FAUST COMMENTARY
Abraham Lincoln had it right when he said“He who represents himself has a fool for a client.”
Given a choice, most persons accused of a crime would prefer a lawyer represent them in court. But not everyone has a choice. The poor are denied access to justice when they cannot afford to pay legal fees of $125 per/hour or more. And when they turn to New Brunswick Legal Aid for help with summary offenses such as assault, they are refused.
Where a middle-class or wealthy person hires a lawyer to stickhandle the same offense through the system, a poor person has to defend herself or plead guilty. If she challenges the system, she ends up representing herself in court – becoming“the fool”of Abe Lincoln’s legal maxim.
As a result, we see a growing number of low-income, self-represented litigants and accused who have become a standard feature in New Brunswick ‘s civil and criminal courts.
According to the Canadian Bar Association, the cost of self-representation is expensive to both the accused and the taxpayer. The self-represented consume significantly more court time and resources than those with legal representation and they lose more often than they win.
The Charles Leblanc case is a glaring example of Legal Aid’s abject failure to help low-income persons make their way through the justice system. It also shows that self-representation costs considerably more to the taxpayer than a Legal Aid lawyer.
In January, the controversial blogger was charged with the summary offence of assault, an accusation he vigorously denies. LeBlanc has been diagnosed with ADHD and epilepsy and receives a monthly income assistance cheque of $576. He lives in subsidized housing and cannot afford a lawyer. He applied twice for Legal Aid but was refused. If found guilty, LeBlanc could go to jail, lose his apartment and become homeless.
Given the circumstances, LeBlanc believes he has no choice but to represent himself in court. A group called Friends For Justice has set up a website http:// charlesleblancdefencefund.com/ and raised more than $1,100 with a goal of $5,000 to pay for a lawyer and give Le-Blanc a legal defence. Until then, however, LeBlanc continues to have a“fool for a client,”as Abe Lincoln would say.
Leblanc’s first court appearance as a self-represented accused was on Jan. 19 before Justice Julian Dickson. Since, then, he has appeared five more times before Justice Mary Jane Richards and Justice Brian McLean along with Crown prosecutor Sebastien Michaud, who has been brought in from Edmundston.
Two recent hearings on July 7 and Aug. 26 took 12 hours, the last one to question two members of the Miramichi Police Force who received the original assault complaint at the request of the Fredericton City Police. These two officers have travelled to Fredericton at least nine times on taxpayers’expense, perhaps more.
Anyone who has sat in on the proceedings would agree it is painful to watch LeBlanc struggle with complex legal processes while begging the judge to appoint a Legal Aid lawyer. If previous hearings are any indication, the next session will be at least eight hours. And if the case goes to trial, it could be very lengthy with LeBlanc representing himself.
The costs to the taxpayer are surely in the tens of thousands of dollars by now and there is no end in sight, but what is an accused to do if he believes he is innocent? Ironically, had a Legal Aid lawyer argued LeBlanc’s case from the beginning, this would have been resolved months ago, and the cost to the taxpayer would have been significantly reduced.
The problem is that policies making civil and criminal Legal Aid available for the working poor, seniors, students and those on income assistance are at the bottom of the priority list across Canada. The common denominator seems to be costs.
Accessibility to Legal Aid is a budgetary matter and budgets determines one’s eligibility, not justice.
Justice Minister Stephen Horsman must order changes to Legal Aid that will make it easier for New Brunswickers to qualify for assistance and get the necessary representation to resolve their legal issues.
If not, we will have more poor people tying up the courts and costing the taxpayer tens of thousands of dollars for cases that could be resolved quickly and easily with a Legal Aid lawyer.

Lots of people with mental issues on the street in Fredericton...:(
I don't know if it's because I haven't been in the City for a week but this morning while at King's Place, I noticed many people with mental issues...some I haven't seen for a while.
I might add the Police Scanner was VERY busy last night with issues of mental illness.
As a matter of face someone believe to have jumped off the Westmorland Bridge.
So??? What's going on anyway????..Cutbacks????
Or this???
