Tsubouchi's Decisions

The Charter of Rights and Freedoms was enshrined in law in 1981.

Three lines at the end, over the signature of Pierre Elliott Trudeau state

"We must now establish the basic principle,the basic values and beliefs which hold us together as Canadians so that beyond our regional loyalties, there is a way of life and a system of values which make us proud of the country that has given us freedom and such immeasurable joy."

As an elected representative , with authority to speak for others, I believe our rights and freedoms must be defended, whenever they come under attack.

I've been elected and I've been defeated. Always for the same reason. Because of my commitment to what I believe to be a Councillor's obligation; to say what needs to be said, when it needs to be said.

Aurora's second Integrity Commissioner was chosen by the same six individuals who are currently the subject of civil action undertaken by myself.

Both for libel and slander and for Breach of my Charter Rights.

A twelve month contract was signed with David Tsubouchi, solicitor, on April 1st.

Despite the fact that in an election year, a moratorium on complaints is the norm from August 1st.

He is paid $3,600 monthly from the public purse.

He received two complaints against myself immediately following his appointment, from one of the parties cited by me in the civil action.

He was legally and formally notified of court proceedings and his lack of authority to proceed because of litigation in process.

He neither acknowledged nor responded to the notification. He proceeded.

Without identifying specifics of the complaint; without identifying substance of an investigation; without outlining the basis of his decisions, he made two findings against me.

One of which he amended later by a communication sent to the municipality from his Blackberry.

If this sorry chronicle in the name of righteous conduct does not alert the Government of Ontario to gross abuse of their permissive legislation at the hands of six members of Aurora Council, it is not obvious to me the Charter of Rights and Freedoms prevails in the Province of Ontario.
