Manufactured Crises on Stolen Land


The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) is an independent agency of the Confederation, with the protection of health, safety and the environment and respect of Canada’s international obligations in the field of peaceful uses of nuclear energy .

The CNSC has two components: an organization and the staff of the Commission tribunal. The court must be independent decisions on the admission of related nuclear activities in Canada.

The Commission reports to Parliament on the Minister of Natural Resources, but not directly with the Minister. According to the travel guide to the heads of agencies, “maintain an arm’s length relationship to the Council of Ministers is particularly important for organizations with a mandate to take decisions that determine or set the privileges, rights and benefits of Canadians . ”

The Nuclear Safety and Control Act allows the release of the cabinet guidelines, but they must be very general application on political issues “[paragraph 12]. It goes against the rule of law and the principle of separation of powers between the judicial and executive branches, that the government of any authority of the autonomy of the CNSC.

The minister is not entitled to any Directive, the Canadian Nuclear Safety (CNSC) on a specific case.

But it is what happened in the case of Chalk River, if the government Harper Linda Keen away from their duties and CNSC annulled the decision to stop the reactor.

The reactor at Chalk River is not the only project of atomic substances Algonquin countries vis-à-vis the CNSC has an eye.

Even within Kichesipirini Jurisdiction and unceded traditional territory is SRB Technologies Canada Inc. (SRBT), a manufacturer of light tritium, in a mini-mail at Boundary Rd, Pembroke, Ontario. The nuclear facility is located near several shops, a hockey stadium and a residential area, including young families with new subdivisions.

SRBT used in the manufacture of tritium glow-in-the-dark characters.

The company is regarded as a source of tritium in the environment, the contamination of Pembroke. An increasing number of indications that the tritium is mutagenic (mutated genes causing hereditary defects) and teratogenic (malformations caused by an embryo or foetus). People particularly sensitive towards tritium fetuses, children and young women of childbearing age.

CNSC researchers found that the levels of radioactive tritium into groundwater at work were held up to 80 times the allowable limit for drinking water. SRBT are not yet a plan for dismantling bear on current issues and the contamination is not guaranteed funding for the decommissioning, or cleaning up their mess.

In Class 1 Nuclear Installation, it was necessary for such a project under the Nuclear Safety and Control Act, 2000 has been in force. The supervisory authority of the federal nuclear waste management, the report cites SRB’s record for protecting the environment “well below requirements.” Previously, inspectors CNSC irregularities and several illegal operations by the Commission, while SRBT under license. Despite this, the SRB has been awarded new licenses and permits to continue operating.

Only after environmental steward Kichesipirini Al Villeneuve intervened, the CNSC support unlike the mistake of SRBT in spring 2007.

Villeneuve said: “We have lived here since the time of the mind. When our ancestors have done for us to continue to monitor” Algonkin law, “as he refers to the total lack of protection of our Mother Earth and all that exists. ”

Referring to a long and documented history of persecution and genocide, he added: “in the history of the first contact in 1603, Kichesipirini / Algonkin have suffered significantly from the man in the hands of non - - Aboriginal and heads of government (s). Ont We suffered as a nation, perhaps the most important attempted genocide in Canada … ”

SRB Technologies, “said Villeneuve,” in order to contribute to a reduction in the toxicity of nuclear waste contaminants its website, believes it is preferable to the use of our river for a nuclear dustbin. “You do no right to water pollution of our spiritual guide and historical Heartland … You are not allowed to discharge all the waste in our waters ….

“For this country, and it is still in conflict with the river of our nation and the governments of Canada and Ontario, we, as members of the Kichesipirini / Algonkin nation will do everything in our power as a nation to warn other people to the destruction of our homeland Including the United Nations. ”

Villeneuve continued to maintain members of the CNSC, Linda Keen, personally liable for any violation of law, and related damages, the continuing persecution Kichesipirini Algonquins.

Meanwhile, at the moment, Algonquin have never seen a country signing the contract, in accordance with the Constitution of Canada. 1997 Delgamuukw Following the decision of the Supreme Court of Justice, we now know that “land for Indians” is not only the Indian reserves deliberately set aside, but all surfaces subject to valid claims Indian aboriginal title .

Algonquin The situation is unique in this reserve have been illegally revoked unceded Algonquin area. Algonquin citizens have the constitutionally protected right to the identification traditional governance, when they decide. Traditional governance must comply with legal requirements in accordance with the rules of law, including international law.

The lessons of Mr. Riches


Madison County has nothing to the relative wealth Jonathan Lee.

Riches, South Carolina-federal inmate of the prison striding series of Appeal-internet-hero worship (It has its own entrance from Wikipedia), and complains of imagination that, then yes, unimaginable.

That his appeal against Martha Stewart, it violates its recharging station for citizens’ rights in a real estate deal. Rich said that he had tried to buy his property in Connecticut for the beginning of 2007 to $ 3.5 million US cents before learning, it is “filled with disappointment.” It is also responsible for Stewart allegedly attacked by turkeys, Poison Ivy Contracting, and fell into a hole, while the groundhog tour their property. Riches commitment to donate damages, it brings together for Rachael Ray, the Promi-cook.

Then there is the limitation so it sought against pop star Britney Spears, which indicates the richness weapon forced to commit a number of criminal offences.

And that correspond to NASCAR star Jeff Gordon, who said his fesselten the bumper in a race at Talladega Speedway tic tacs and fell on the trail of wreckage rival driver. And his complaint against the star Barry Bonds MLB, the wealth split, “said the Liberty Bell Hank Aaron’s bat.

Or the $ 63 million, he filed a complaint against the former strategist Atlanta Falcons Michael Vick, last July. The rich, especially the NFL, star of the flight of his pit bulls for sale on eBay, it could buy “to Iran missile and consultations with Al-Qaeda.

“Michael Vick was injured to stop physically, my sentiments and hopes schneidigen” wrote in the richness of his complaint, one of about 1500, he introduced during the period of identity theft .

To be sure, these are not removed from the bodies Laughter cherry-by-way-of cap.

There are many more - claims against the NFL, ( “I played football and received a bruise on my leg and on my chin.), Apple Computer, (” Apple Computers sexually abused me in my dreams is not in real life. I can ‘t bring a dream. “), The Ohio State Buckeyes, (” I am offended, Ohio State plays a weak schedule on the goal for a good note. “), And unabomber Theodore Kaczynski , ( “the defendant has always had problems with the rear Moi since I arrived to purchase his Montana cabin in the year 1993."). Each application has been pulled from the headlines, and something like Twisted a complaint against 31 years of wealth.

The problem is that our courts are not a place for comedy. Our judicial system has only limited resources for the implementation of the reality of litigation and insurance claims to the pursuit of justice. Judge and the Registrar have serious work to do every day. You have no time to manage the wealth inexorable, handwritten ergreifte of electricity and conspiracies, funny, although some of them it is.

He asks: Why is Jonathan Lee wealth can do? How can he a criminal conviction Hijack critical, funded by the taxpayers of resources for its own illusions?

The almost mythical right of the latter, which is how.

The federal courts have closed wealth. But it has left more than a thousand files complaints because they mistakenly believed that the rejection of his claim would in any way against his constitutional rights.

It is not.

Our founding fathers is not exception, absolutely guarantee the constitutional right to initiate. While it might never come, Mr Rogue as an asset. But his scruples in the abuse of our system can serve as Exhibit A in each justify restrictions.

It is precisely in a place that Madison County, we should not forget that the filing of an appeal by civil law. It allows a plaintiff - as a treasure, one or Ashley Peach, or a mark or Eavenson Amanda Verett either toxic tort storage units which pushes its way by the Third Circuit “in the last ten years – forever State awesome power on their behalf, against the interests of someone else.

Sometimes, armaments is justified. But too often these days, it is only a tactic to force threatening, a desire on the other.

It is the best of what we can do to regain the confidence of our elected and appointed leaders to keep our justice for the plaintiffs in search of real equity. Not everyone has seen a slight remedy in our courts.

Today, Jonathan Lee wealth is a cartoon. Hopefully others and its frivolen Possen ‘never again.
