Case Runner Legislation: Toughest and strictest in the world, starting with 20% maximum for lawyer(s) , this will include any fees with 80% recovery going directly to the injured party, and within 30-day grievance time-period signatures will all be inadmissible for lawsuits when a major accident occurs.
Citizenship: No person may revoke a Canadian citizenship once issued, a Canadian is a Canadian. Ensure a Canadian Passport is a Right as a form of valid Canadian Identification. When Canadian Passports are revoked, have the person in question present for the hearing or re-hearing allowed. Ensure a justice (judge) is the only person allowed to revoke Canadian Passports and the person must be able to make full answer and defence to defend themselves with full disclosure and given all the tools and disclosure necessary to access all the information (24-hour access to a laptop, internet, paper, pens, ink printer while detained and full healthcare services). Denied this, then reversal and renewal forthwith of the Passport in question without cost as fees waived.
Citizenship Process to Revoke your Canadian Citizenship: For those citizens that wish to leave Canada or automatically for citizens that leave Canada to fight in another country’s war against Canada or any nation in the United Nations as a terrorist group supporter.
Civil Court System Reform: To increase and speed up the out-of-date civil justice system for access to justice, legal counsel for court representation in legal proceedings, family justice, are considered serious and difficult to resolve without court. Providing legal-aid funding available for all civil suits to make everyone get a hearing, quickly and a fair resolution. Procedures will be created for civil litigation that emphasizes three principles: simplicity, speed, and affordability.
Civil Court – CSC Grievances: A one-page federal court application to file without fees for any prisoners.
Constitutional Question Court: Created to address directed Constitutional Questions (Estimated Cost: $50,000,000) with the assistance of a local law school and Artificial Intelligent Lifeform. Any written questions raised would be sent forthwith by any justice for expedited review and ruling with the power to quash any conviction or ongoing case if a breach occurred.
Court Administration Service: (Cost: $68,490,773).
Crown: Crown will only have one chance to convict a person, if a jury fails to convict instead of a mistrial being ordered, the Justice must not ever re-try a case and waste taxpayer’s funds. The presumption of the innocence strictly enforced and a not-guilty verdict entered in these cases. Crown will no longer have the right to appeal any decision of the courts.
Dispute Resolution Clinics: As a form of access to justice with the ability to articulate your concerns over any issue and have it heard and responded to in a timely manner.
Digital Legacy Act: An act allowing a certified Death Certificate if provided to any digital providers (Facebook, Google, etc.) to be ordered allowed account access to the digital assets and redistributed if not assigned in a Will, without an official court order per case. Access to Loyalty Point Accounts have monetary value vs. others that are more personal like family photos.
Divorce Legislation: Transitional Spousal Support to promote self-sufficiency. To combat the intentionally under-employed or unemployed with temporary financial assistance. Structured to allow the lower income spouse to the new economic reality of being self-sufficient with support payments to terminate within a short time and to include yearly step-down support with full termination after the order was made no later than 4-years (Spousal Support amount determined by parties and/or set by Judge for 1st year at 100%, 2nd year at 75%, 3rd year at 50%, 4th year at 25% and at the start of the 5th year at 0%).
Double Jeopardy: After a case is found not-guilty or an appeal overturns a conviction the Crown does not have the option to re-trial. The Crown (Canada) must only have one chance to get a conviction, no more.
Entrapment Laws: Strengthen our entrapment laws so any and all government officers must identify themselves as such when not in uniform or else it considered entrapment. Those entrapping may be prosecuted with stiff penalties and or incarceration for continuing this practice. With the introduction of a new multi-tiered prison repurposed just for police officers, judges, and high-profile members (CSC staff, CBSA, RCMP, etc.), we believe this a great deterrent for authoritative abuse. Any person that is charged will face suspension, and/or dismissal.
Expert Witness Testimony Act: Those that prove false and misleading a jury to a wrongful conviction will be subject to removal of title from any and all nomination rolls including university or colleges credentials with a court order to renew credentials, their last year must be redone or with additional corrective court appointed courses to regain their credentials. Credentials with the Bar Society or other practicing trade organizations Canada-Wide would be suspended. National Employee Credential Data Base Bank created for all lawyers, teachers, doctors, nurses, engineers, technicians, and police, for all fields would list credentials and any suspensions, and renewals of their licences. Human Resources would have immediate access to ensure their employees are in good standing in this bank for their continued employment in Canada. Grounds for termination or suspension without pay until rectified from any public or Crown corporation.
Full File Disclosure: The full file of the police and prosecutor must be made available to the defence before the case goes to trial. Having an opportunity to see whatever charges are in the file allows one to come forward with contrary evidence before the trial begins. Defence must have the ability to review and announce to Prosecutors through a police liaison, all exonerating evidence they can reasonably provide before trial.
Gag Orders: An immediate blanket lifting of all “Gag orders” imposed by CSC, Police, and counsels to former prisoners on all payments, informants, and all those involved in all cases. Full Transparency is started here.
Gun Legislation and Gun Control Laws (Cost: $10-million):
Bear Spray: Removed forthwith from all restricted lists though it is promoted, available legally for sale in Canada, and required to be carried by anyone when outside as a defensive deterrent for wildlife and to deter or stop potential rape crimes using the Force Continuum.
Concealed Carry: Address s.88 and s.90 in the C.C.C. and other sections, for the right to carry a concealed knife, pepper spray, mace, Taser, and other items. It must be legal for a competent person to carry, conceal, and handle a tool for self-defence of human assailants, under the right to defend ourselves in Canada especially for handguns owned by USA tourists travelling to Alaska (bear country) and consider either temporary permits or outright decriminalization.
Flashing: Showing a gun in public and owner touching it considered “threatening” and grounds for intervention by police with a 30-day licence suspension and gun hold. Showing a gun by removing it from the holster considered “flashing.” The event must be video recorded with time stamps and GPS location of the alleged incident for actual police action. Maintenance and cleaning of a gun in the gun owner’s residence will not be considered flashing.
High-School Graduate Student Licence Holder – Concealed Carry: New federal permit to allow the ability to carry handguns and to fight back due to the rise in high-profile mass shootings. Guns allowed on public campuses throughout Canada. Offices by default, gun free. No one can ask a student if they’re armed; Guns must remain near their owners, a backpack or purse is fine; Guns may be restricted from some dorms and offices; No bullet may be in a chamber, ready to fire; Not permitted to carry if under the influence of drugs, cannabis, or alcohol; training program mandated to train under-graduates in armed response drills. “If you are not carrying, please come in.”
Illegal Guns: Illegal guns found in a vehicle, may also have the vehicle confiscated along with the gun.
Military: Round table and vote with Canadians about adopting rules and laws from other countries for each adult male and female who partakes in Canadian Forces military reserve training to be authorized to be issued and keep at their home residence all their military reserve basic equipment including issued firearms and ammunition and those leaving the regular service if they wish to join and help with the Canadian Forces Reserves. Return to all Canadian cadets all the services, tools, vehicles, and materials they require to train and become familiar within all branches our Canadian Forces.
Modify the Criminal Code: To allow for the reasonable defence of self, family, and property during a criminal trespassing and it not be a criminal offence if death or injury results to the criminal(s) who does not reside at the residence according to the Force Continuum. Gun control laws fail because of the black market. Make it only a misdemeanour for having or owning unregistered guns. Rescind C-17, C-51, and C-68 and do a complete overhaul of the National Firearms Act. To curb gun violence, all crimes with a gun will carry an automatic Life sentence.
Ownership Laws Eased for all Firearms: Reinstate the Firearms Acquisition Certificate (FAC). Take a public health approach that treats guns as we do cars. Force Continuum course must be incorporated into licensing. Ease the FAC process and create a more streamlined process with less red tape. Make same-day renewals available at Provincial or Territorial Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) branch and without your spouse signature. Reason being: You don’t need a spouse or ex-spouse signature to get your Driver’s Licence.
Schools: Protect our children in schools by allowing principals and teachers the opportunity to carry a concealed handgun. Teachers are the first line of defense for our children and when police finally do arrive, the ‘shooter’ normally and statistically has finished and is fleeing. Having and not needing is better than needing and not having when a terrorist enters a school. Implement the Battelle – Sight Guard for all schools, hospitals, malls, government and public facility. This is a system that detects gunshots and alerts the police immediately with current video and location(s).
Search During Evacuations: Police will no longer be allowed to enter a person’s home, muddying floors, searching without a warrant including the opening of secured gun cabinets and confiscating Canadian owner’s firearms, they feel like confiscating especially during forced evacuations of persons from their home due to flooding, fire or natural disasters. Weapons taken by the police for investigation, returned without question by the police forthwith if Crown does not proceed with a criminal charge resulting in a conviction.
Identity Checks (Carding, Street Checks): Legislate an end to this racial profiling practice by all police and security services and unlawful stop and searches of persons lawfully going about their day except for those entering a secure public area where all entering screened and checked. Password requests for unlocking of electronic devices and e-mail disallowed except for those requesting visitor entry into Canada. Pre-search notice with reason with the name(s) and badge number(s) of the officer(s) attending given to the person being searched prior to search being initiated and a Post-search report given to the persons upon completion of the search and before the end of the officer’s shift.
Independent Complaint Department (ICD) [Police, Military, Correctional Services Canada, immigration, and Border Services]: All final level grievances the responsibility of the ICD. This will finally restore the public confidence in the Canadian Border Services, military, and all police forces by granting the power to ICD (supervised by the Attorney General) to correct breaches by a member in the force and giving them the ability to order, grant, and enforce immediate disciplinary action and changes or charges and not just recommend changes (Cost: $10-million).
Independent Investigation Office (IIO): Investigating complaints against the police for police misconduct, IIO. All Officers involved in an incident must be interviewed forthwith by an independent investigator and signed-off by the IIO prior to resuming their normal duties. Those refusing to interview, may face loss of pay and employment and new charges of obstruction and conspiracy. Facts and statements must be recorded without interference or prejudice of new evidence so they do not become blurred days or months later and changed after viewing cellphone and security-camera footages of the incident. Failure to provide IIO all interviews requested forthwith will result in suspension and possible termination due to obstruction of an investigation and non-cooperation. It is in the public interest for the IIO to conduct a thorough investigation and to determine all the relevant facts and only after receiving can one reach conclusions. All recommended charges filed by the IIO must be filed and initiated in court by Crown, regardless of the outcome of the case. All deaths of a citizen in public or a prisoner, by one officer or more than one officer involved, all that used any force on that citizen or assisted in the apprehension/confinement, named and charged with manslaughter until cleared by the IIO.
Intimate Privacy Protection Act: Crime to post revenge porn. Posting another person’s intimate images online without their written consent is a criminal offence. Increase the scope of this to include sharing these images with others (Cost: $1-million).
Jury Support: National Support Standards framework to support for traumatized jurors with counselling and mental health support provided during and after trial. Federal standard compensation for jury duty to 8-hours at a daily rate at the Minimum Wage for the province or territory and Jury duty once every 10-years. The Trial Court considered the Full-time Employer for the duration of the juror’s duty, including holidays and time-off between court dates and paid daily (direct deposit, check, or cash) according to the juror’s preference, and the court must ensure travel arrangements and parking are provided for their employees due to the seriousness of their civic duty and to help relieve the stress involved and imposed.
Legal Aid Divorce Funding: Persons going through a divorce with children, both parties entitled to Legal Aid funding and counsel of their choice for their hearings. Funds recouped from awarded costs and then the Canadian Contingency Fund. Work to eliminate child custody court fees for and all applicants and fast-tracking these in the courts with dedicated evening custody justices. This will also cover Limping Relationships (married in one country but divorced in another) where litigation is needed in more than one jurisdiction and country to actually finalize the divorce. Tariff rates addressed as equal to Crown.
Legal System & Radical Legal Reform: We have the best 19th-centruy Legal System money can buy, but it is time to bring it into the 21st-century. Escalate Legal Aid funding forthwith with coverage for all migrants, immigrants, prisoners, welfare & those showing need (automatic for both parties and each child during a divorce involving children). No family should be turned away. Each province and territory will have adequate funding for a Conviction Review Committee can review and render a decision on all cases within a year. Our plan turns the directionless Legal Aid Program and patchwork of services from province to territory into a robust service provider with National Standards to ensure poor people have access to justice. Just like the 1960’s, Health Care reforms, all lawyers, like doctors, employed under a fee-for-service system paid for by the state. Clinics, regardless of their ability to pay, would have the right to retain the lawyer of their choice. Equal access to forensic science and services expertise and provided through the same mechanism as universal legal care. Every open court house must have an assigned Legal Aid lawyer available (public defender) for all unrepresented.
Legal System Speedy Trial: Transparency and the right to a speedy trial is the policy of our government. Trial management streamlined with technology modernization starting with a National Electronic System for all to access including the accused. Monthly bail reviews and strict guidelines for trials. Computerized system of administering a courthouse and scheduling with fast-tracking of serious offences (murder/sex crimes). Crack down on case runners and case profiteers. Lawyers accused of breach of trust, including deliberately supressing DNA exclusionary evidence financially penalized and the funds directed to their victim, they will permanently lose their licence to practice law, and all their cases subjected to re-opening and full review by the Minister upon any hint of this to determine if a wrongful conviction occurred.
Pre-Emptive Challenges: Re-instate up to three (3) pre-emptive challenges for both Defence and Crown.
Preliminary Trials: Remove all including those for serious offences. Allow after initial opening by Crown for the Defence to call a witness to counter Crown opening and present preliminary defence for the Justice to raise immediate doubt and ability for Justice to dismiss entire case forthwith.
Legal Fast-Track Criminal Trials: To reduce back-log by having cases completed in one week only.
First day: opening statements by Crown (morning) & opening statements by Defence (afternoon);
Second day: Crown & Defence arguments for trial (morning) and Judge Decision (afternoon) with jury selection forthwith (afternoon until done);
Third day: Crown Witnesses;
Fourth day: Defence Witnesses; and
Fifth day: Closing arguments by Defence (morning) & Crown (afternoon);
Sixth day: Deliberations and Jury Decision; and
Seventh day: Victim Impact Statements (morning) and Sentencing (afternoon).
Legal Fast-Track & Additional Court Procedural Safeguards: The sentence the defendant receives if he or she insists on a court hearing does not exceed the one the prosecutor had first offered; The court hearing must be held behind closed doors and not public if requested by the defendant; A penal order (or transaction) must never be issued as an option to downgrade serious crimes; and No decision (plea) must never be possible without a hearing of the defendant by the prosecutor because relevant facts (including the suspect’s identity) have not been sufficiently verified.
Penal code updated for same severity in cases on calculation framework as found for bank robbery as for rape.
Legal Fast-Track Trial Rules: Adopting the proposal of Risinger (2004: 1311-1312). The defendant would be required to isolate the binary exterior ultimate facts that underlie their claim of innocence. All other elements of the case would be conceded by binding judicial admission after interview by the Crown prosecutor with the defendant and their counsel, a circumstance to be explained to the jury in the most unambiguous fashion after alternative proposals for the explanatory charge have been made by the defence and the prosecution. Thereafter, in the actual trial, all proffers of evidence by both sides would have to be found “useably” relevant to the factual issues as limited. Prosecution use of expert testimony would be closely screened for reliability, and the court would be prevented from excluding, on the ground of “invasion of the province of the jury,” any identification, false confessions, the commonness of false testimony by jailhouse snitches, and the weaknesses of any expert evidence proffered by the prosecution. Closing arguments would be expected to stick closely to the factual issues raised in the application. The cross-sectional jury would be retained, together with the finality rule for acquittals. Convictions would be reviewable not merely on the basis of sufficiency, but also on the issue of whether they were “unsafe.” At any stage of court including all appeals, any new evidence presented, must be accepted and a determination of relevance, especially if it proves to exclude the suspect and allow the courts to exonerate the suspect.
Life Sentence: Any Life Sentence will be constitutionally set at 25-years maximum (9,131-days) served on parole or in jail.
Minister of Justice: Ensure a section exists to permit the Minister to substitute a Ministerial opinion for a jury’s verdict or result on appeal, including exoneration. Funding and a realistic time-line must be set for a closed door review of each case. Not refer the matter for retrial but to have the final power to grant bail pending the Minister’s outcome would be to either confirm the Appeal decision or exonerate an innocent person and grant fixed compensation forthwith.
Negligence: Filing times on Negligence will be waived in all courts. Chargeable and will include the failure of authorities and those that are aware of the information, to inform the courts of DNA exclusion, or other evidence including a different suspect confession for crimes people are convicted or may be convicted on and serving time for, including the failure of the Crown to right wrongs within 24-hours of confirmation of a confession or aware of factual proof of innocence. It will be a criminal offence in the Criminal Code of Canada for any person as accomplices, not to disclose a person’s innocence forthwith as a recognition of wrongdoing and the sentence will be up to a life sentence. This includes witnesses, police, councils, Crown experts, technicians, and Crown.
Office of the Director of Public Defence (Cost: $166-million): Opened with the exact same budget and salaries as the current Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (Cost: $166-million). The appearance of fairness put into action starting with equal Legal Aid funding as Public Defence. Funding equal pay for government lawyer and Legal Aid lawyers.
Legal Aid: Reformed by federal loans given directly to Legal Aid offices that will be deducted from transfer payments. Examples: Increased by $49-million along with Immigration Lawyers Fees increased $2.4-million.
Officiality maxim: Addition to the Criminal Code of Canada. It means police officers and prosecutors who fail to collect and concealed or withhold crucial exculpatory evidence for more than 24-hours that might be favorable to the defendant are subject to criminal prosecution and will also be prosecuted with a Life sentence. The existence of this rule may work as an efficient deterrent for individuals concerned about their careers and any scandal of this sort. This rule has the potential of assisting and including in discovering wrongful convictions and following exonerations are sometimes initiated by prosecutors or police officers (Germany). The police must search for evidence may turn out to be favorable to the defendant, and is per se entitled to come forward with whatever evidence he or she finds.
Plea Bargaining: Restricted to minor offences (traffic violations, minor thefts, possession of drugs, etc.). Any Plea Bargaining involving testimony of a Crown Witness is considered automatic grounds for re-opening and re-trial in the Supreme Court without the Crown Witness allowed to participate or attend as a witness, even if the case is considered closed.
Police: Must rule out the existence of any third party to all crimes. Especially when unknown DNA evidence is found at the crime scene. The identity of unknown DNA must be ascertained. VeriPol Lie-Detector AI, to identify fake police reports.
Prosecutor’s Charging Decisions: Subject to public scrutiny in the way that judge’s sentencing decisions are and all recommendations for charges by a police chief or petition of 1,000+ will be charged and filed by prosecutors.
Protection of Public Participation Act: Based on the Ontario Protection of Public Participation Act, to safeguard the administration of justice by enacting effective anti-SLAPP legislation. SLAPP is anti-free-speech tactics intended to censor, intimidate or silence critics by saddling them with legal expenses and sapping procedural demands. Organizations possess the ability to move and shape public opinion and ought to be held to the same standard all companies are held, to be factual and accountable to the truth. Misuse by false claiming SLAPP tactics must have an equal monetary compensation awarded at the same level as the organization claiming SLAPP originally filed and asked for.
Release of Prisoner: Prisoners must be ensured they have the same licences and identification as they had when initially detained. This must involve and include: Driver’s Licence and Firearms licence, cleared Health Care Card, and any outstanding tickets, fines, renewals are fully covered by the Prosecutor on the day of release. Upon transfers of prisoners, the IPO initially will meet with the prisoner for identification review with all the prisoner’s identification in a folder proving that all their documents are up-to-date. Any documents that are expired, would then be arranged forthwith for ETA to update and paid by CSC. This would help mend the fence between prisoners and Crown and allow prisoners to start off on the right foot with all their updated licences and documentation upon their initial release into the community.
Seznec Law of 1989, “Better one hundred guilty in liberty than one innocent convicted.” Working to address the focused police attention on innocent individuals or caused evidence to be fabricated, planted or misinterpreted in an incriminating manner, resulting in a wrongful conviction. Prisoners working with a dedicated police liaison from another provincial department after conviction to help prove their innocence. So long as a prisoner is claiming their innocence, the case could never be closed by the police, nor DNA exclusionary evidence be ignored by the lower courts to reopen a decided case.
Social Media: Hateful posts posted on any social media platform are grounds for dismissal regardless if you are on-duty or off. Social media history will be methodically reviewed for continued employment suitability. When in doubt, do not post. AI programs will be deployed to research any and all social media of employees that are paid by Canadian taxpayers. This program will start and include but will not be limited to: Canadian Forces, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Canada Revenue Agency, Elections Canada, Correctional Services Canada, Canadian Border Security Agency, Immigration, Health Care, Canadian Space Agency, Canada Post, local police and security.
Supreme Court of Canada (S.C.C.): Leave to Appeal must be accepted and the cases automatically heard in the S.C.C. for all those cases the Appeal Courts claim they don’t have jurisdiction to hear and refers in transcript only the S.C.C. has the jurisdiction to re-open the case to make a new ruling. The S.C.C. mandated with transparency to provide reasons for the denial of a Leave to Appeal so the Petitioner has an opportunity to understand the reason(s) why the S.C.C. denied decision and have a fair appeal for the Leave to Appeal to the Minister of Justice and thus correct oversight was made.
SCC Amendment: A retrial could be ordered by the Court when real suspicion exists that the accused has suffered a miscarriage of justice. Every piece of evidence, new or old, can be used as the subject of the application for a retrial as long as it has its own potential to exonerate, thus justifying such an application. Every time there is doubt and concern a miscarriage of justice may have occurred, doubt can be a sufficient and justified cause for a retrial. This application can be made by any person in their provincial/territorial Supreme Court. Facts or evidence, that are likely, either alone or together with the material brought to the first court, to change the outcome of the trial in favor of the accused are sufficient in the spirit of this section of the Court Law to order a new trial or exonerate or acquit, by either judge-ordered or judge-directed. Furthermore, court will order an In-cell Computer System with Unrestricted Internet be provided 24/7 forthwith to the accused upon any application with camera, video, microphone, headphones, printer, toner and white printer paper provided by Crown and without cost to the prisoner (Cost: $30,774,824).
Support Groups: Creation of a paid advocacy position for transvestites, two-spirit, non-binary, and intersex people. A support group for transitions.
Terrorist Loopholes: Countries wishing Canadians to be soldiers in their army may request it from our military directly for a Canadian to serve. Child Soldiers: Put into Canadian law with the recommendation that children are eighteen (18) aged or younger and forced to fight as a contributor or soldier by threat of death of self or a member of the child’s family or friends. Dual-citizenship Canadians must understand the repercussions including incarceration if they partake in another country military actions without the approval and enlistment or first refusal of enlistment in our own Canadian Forces. Fighting and joining foreign armies while promoting terror abroad or supporting terrorist organizations in Canada grounds for charges on terrorism with life tag and imprisonment and treason if caught returning to Canada or from abroad. Canadians have the option of enrolling in Canada’s own military and partaking in an exchange-transfer program available for cases requiring mandatory military service for their residents and citizens and for those who are also Canadians with dual-Citizenship and tri-Citizenship. From the poor and hopeless comes terrorism so, we give hope through aid and education. Hope is an answer to terrorism while working with other Governments to identify terrorists. As our military is built up, re-deployment to contested areas as peacekeepers to help stabilize in the reconstruction of these countries. Internet postings promoting or supporting ISIS, lone wolf attacks, or support to family members supporting ISIS (accessory) are grounds for denial to Canada and deportable forthwith. Sentence to include Life. All persons travelling to or from a country that is at war with Canada, or the person is suspected of assisting a terrorist organization, will be notified, detained, military charged as a terrorist and/or accomplice, and placed on the no-fly list, weapons banned, and if released, on parole for life.
Transgender Rights Act: Allowed to change sex displayed on renewals for Driver’s Licence, Passport, Birth Certificate, Health Card, or other official form of identification and incarceration based on their gender identity and not their birth gender. This will assist with gender based analysis for government program approvals and business funding to attain gender parity (Cost: $1-million).
Transparency: All court proceedings video-taped and made available to the public after trial (release or after conviction and sentencing). Appeals video recorded and allowed to be broadcasted live. This will curb jury tampering by social media.
White-collar Crime: White-collared crime will be taken more seriously and investigated by the local police services with increased funding for new division of Police Accountant Auditors, those have the power to request disclosure on all financial files and independently audit the financials of any company has taken money but not returned all of it with interest, and is accused of fraud. Increased and prosecution of all investment fraudsters have defrauded more than $500,000 and those involved in Ponzi schemes with jail and liquidation of their personal assets by auction 30-days after jail sentence and the appeal process is concluded and if the court ordered restitution has not been paid. Failure to pay the 10% of initial penalty per year results in additional jail time.

Under: National Defence Act. Defence Construction Canada (DCC) responsible for the contracting and supervising of major military construction and maintenance projects required by National Defence. Defence Research & Development Canada provides research and development both nationally and internationally by providing the Canadian Forces with relevant and timely technologies, while at the same time offering attractive collaborative opportunities to other government departments, the private sector, academia and international allies.
Historical Moments: March 1st, 1942, in the midst of World War II, the Canadian Women’s Army Corps was formed, allowing women to proudly serve their country in uniform.
Canada’s Defence Policy: Our roadmap to a stronger Canadian Forces following our new military policy: It is better to have and not need, than to need and not have. Spending what we need to rebuild our Canadian Forces and protect our western security with our shift in our complacent lack of threat to pro-active threat defences by and all foreign states current military buildup and incursions with better surveillance, escorts, interception, northern fleet military patrol and exercises, and ballistic-cruise missile defence shield. We will bring our navy back to be able to fully assert our sovereignty over any and all of our maritime borders. The world needs more Canada (10-year Defence Budget Modernization Cost: $516,866,599,996).
Ensure 3% GDP military spending plus 1% NATO-Canada (100,000 NATO dedicated troops ensuring our superpower status) and 1% Space Force by fixing the procurement process for when military orders are placed, legislation is in place it cannot later be cancelled nor delayed by future governments. Maintain adequate spending for our current streamlined military forces to fully review Canada’s defence policy, to create a clear defence and security strategy and objectives, and get our forces the tools they require and need to defend Canada’s Air, Land, Sea, Space, and Cyber fields.
Our government will modify the $46-billion Conservative (Tory) plans for the purchase of 65 CF-35 Stealth Fighters and the Liberal’s second hand F-18 orders. The full amount is incorporated into our military budget along with a complete, full, and accurate inventory of all our military assets, replacement suggestions, wish items, and inventories at all our installations and military owned resources. Modify the pre-order due down to 21 CF-35 Stealth Fighters at a new cost of $15-billion due to the alternative combat fighter aircrafts we plan to purchase, with the remaining funds pay-off all Canadian Student Loans estimated at $17-billion, all Hospitals will receive an equal share of the $5-billion to immediately reduce their waiting times, and the Canadian Space Agency will receive the remaining for their first year budget and new technological achievement mandates. Review and update all documents, policies and rules in our entire command structure: Canada Command (Homeland Security), Land Forces Command (LFC), Maritime Command (MARCOM), and Air Command (AIRCOM). Create three (3) new distinct commands in Canada: Space Command (SPACOM), Cyber Command (CYBCOM), and NATO Forces (NATOF). Meaningful Political dialogue can only be achieved with a strong military backing.
With this in mind, enhances include both the defensive and the offensive capabilities of the Canadian Forces military & space programs with joint operations and the security of Canadian Space Agency rocketry program and assets. By November 1st of each year, all paid military personal will be asked to have submitted to the Minister of Defence, a recommendation of any three (3) items or changes that they would like to see the Canadian Forces implement or order.
Long-Term Military Spending Goal: $200-billion per year. Our Canadian Forces Progressive Modernization Military Plan (12-year Cost: $517-billion+) will include maintaining four (4) legislative carrier task-force groups:
National Security Strategy: Security plan in place would be monitored and adjusted as necessary: Canada would act ‘pre-emptively,” using military force if necessary to forestall or prevent threats to its security by terrorists or “rogue states” possessing or attempting to develop biological, chemical, or nuclear weapons – so-called weapons of mass destruction.;
Increase size of the Canadian Forces to 310,000 combined Reserves and Regular;
Create a new dedicated Space Division as a Space Task Force within our combined military forces;
Build twenty (20) new Arctic deep-sea ports & military bases;
Task our Canadian Forces with the security of all Canadian Hospitals and Medical Centres have atomic materials. Ensure serious improves are done on access to these powerful radiological materials to prevent “loose nukes” or dirty bombs from being developed from any of our “misplaced” materials;
Invest in information and ideas with an Office of National Assessment (Cost: $2,112,886), producing independent assessments directly to the Prime Minister from both open and classified sources;
Adapt the current regulations and restrictions for enlistment into all branches of the Canadian Forces to allow for past criminal records not to be a deciding factor;
Ensure Capability for Enforcement Action in the North, enforce authority over national territory, seas, and airspace;
Buy F-35’s plus other combat aircraft and fifth-generation equipment our forces require to fulfill its new mandate;
Participate in Canada’s Ballistic Missile Defence (Canadian Iron Shield): 650 satellites with space-based interceptors $300-billion);
De-criminalize Military Desertion: Change our policy and laws to allow leaving the military at any time but without equipment or materials, to quit with only the clothes on ones back with notice during a contract and provide the transportation back to city of recruitment without penalty. Pardon all past deserters, allow reintegration back into Canada as a formal second chance, and serving in NATO-Canada for their family status as Canadian Residents;
Defence Authorization Act: All Canadian military vehicles: 1/3 must be unmanned by 2025 and 2/3 must be unmanned by 2030; and
Restore the Canadian Forces Navy to the third largest in the world with fifth-generation hydrogen surface combat ships similar to Zumwalt-class (stealth guided missile destroyers), Independence-class (littoral combat ships), long-term hydrogen-electric arctic submarines, and next-generation aircraft carriers, all with blue water capabilities and to manage four-season Arctic navigation for a fleet of five-hundred ships excluding our Space Force.
Bases: We maintain a high level of interoperability and it is one of the military’s top priorities. Starting with rebuilding all bases with new water, sewage, electrical & housing as part of our modernization plan to incorporate a blanket no limiting clause for all proprietary rights to equipment on what defence department workers and Canadian military personnel can do to continue to maintain and fully operate all our aircraft, vehicles, vessels, and all their systems to keep Canada and its assets safe and protected.
Combat Aircraft: To create the next generation of Combat Aircrafts, a Fighter Jet Assembly Plant in Canada. 1,000+ Canadian built Combat Aircrafts: long range jet interceptor airplanes are winterized - Canadian AvroAero2, with a goal of creating 365.25 planes a year (one-a-day). Retooling a vehicle plant (GM closing 2019 in Oshawa, ON) to facilitate mass-production of Canada’s newest combat aircraft and to retain 3,750 highly skilled adaptive production workers. Purchasing 84 Combat Aircraft forthwith: 21 Super Hornet’s is logical as training and maintenance would be virtually the same as the CF-18’s. Gaining new technologies, the purchase of 21 CF-22’s Raptor aircraft would be a stop-gate and are proven more tactically and technically more combat ready for the engagement theatre Canada would be operating in domestically or abroad in a foreign country, along with 21 EU Joint Strike Fighters BAE Typhoon and 21 French Rafale.
Combat Aircraft Training: Technicians and skills needed on these new purchases will be an increase in both for in military roles but also for post-secondary and trades education for all our Regular Canadian Forces, Canadian Rangers, and Reservists.
Conscription: If you are not in school and don’t have a part-time job or you don’t get one within 30-days, you qualify. Women/Man-power Fit For Military Service (2009 est.): Female (aged 16-49) 6,413,748 and Male (aged 16-49) 6,647,513.
DARRT (Disaster Assistance Rapid Response Team): For Canadian protection abroad with the tools, equipment, and resources necessary to fulfill its mandate specializing to combat natural or man-made disaster, specialized in flood and earthquake items (JPL Finders: human heartbeat detection and locations), and emergency needs.
DARRT: Mandated long-term tasked with visiting and supplying full services including manned and autonomous drones from the civilian and military Drone R&D (flying cell sites) for victim location and identification, doctors, optometrist, dentists and the transportation to and from all our Canadian missions-Embassies in need.
Drills: To be a good ally and good citizen of the world, Canadians need to be well-trained, well-equipped, well-manned, and well-led military able to act on its defence as well as fulfill a host of functions. For this, we will implement live-round drills, reinstate cadet training with imitation weapons, actual military vehicles, aircraft, and specialized equipment training. Canadian Cadet Organization doubled to 100,000 and funding increased accordingly (Cost: $500-million).
Drones: Building Canadian Military Drones and new Combat Aircrafts and ships with our own military having the capacity to repair, maintain, and guard against them with troops equipped with Drone Defenders (C-UAS Devices). The goal is for a Canadian force envious of our allies and those potential soon to be allies. We are dedicated to rebuilding and increasing our armed forces while recognizing the need for lethal power in a violent world of terrorists and disputed territories.
Integration and Transition Program: From Reservists to Regular and vice-versa would be allowed for individuals requesting post-secondary training and for updating all our members’ skills to meet the new requirements of a Grade-12 education requirements, and if they choose can graduate college and go to Officer’s Training either right from basic training or switching from Reservists to Regular (Full-time) enlistment. Investing in better post military training, education and civilian life transferrable and relatable job skills upon eventually leaving the Canadian Forces.
Military Engineering Assistance: In building and protecting all our assets, assisting all First Nations communities, and ensuring protection of our new magnetic rail-line to connect to the northern passage and ships our new Canadian bases and rescue stations, just makes sense. To actually put substantial Canadian infrastructure lets the world to know we actually own the north and have immediate and rapid access for all our Canadian citizens and tourists. Working with Immigration to facilitate the increase in immigration and placement to all the northern territories.
Military Personnel and Funding Increase: Personnel increased at a minimum 1% per year, to ensure military personnel minimum is 0.5% Canada’s population. Funding 1.1% GDP, increased to 3% GDP, ensure initial White Paper acquisitions within ten-years, to fulfill all our rebuilding military strategies and mandates. Defence funding at the end of the inventory reviewed over the next three years for ensuring 3% GDP, includes all purchases outlined herein. All Canadian shipyards are expected to be running at capacity and receive long-term orders for the creation of ships, their repair, and refurbishing.
Military Personnel Equipment Increase: Adequately finance Canada’s men, women and non-binary people in uniform plus equip the troops with modern personal equipment and the tools they require within timelines and budgets. One to ensure the protection of Canadian interests and citizens and make it clear to all the world Canada will defend its airspace, waters, and land on all violations. A future modern Canadian military we believe can be planned out in full, successfully implemented, and outsourced at the reviews end with a buy and build Canadian policy and no cancellation clauses.
Modernization & Build-up: With the doubling and strong build-up of Russia, North Korea, China and other military forces, it is prudent we take the proactive steps for a modern and self-assured nation. This in-line with other allied countries including the United States to better protect our borders without the current assistance from any foreign country.
NICASP: Create a public accessible National Investigation Committee on Aerial and Sub-surface Phenomena database.
NATO’s (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) 2% GDP Target: Military spending met and passed with our 3% GDP defence spending budget. For our NATO and UN Peacekeeper Forces, clamp down on all human rights violations, increase participation with up to 20,000 troops for each with large-scale coalition peacekeeping missions and directions, by increased defence spending for terrorism & international security. Hold all peacekeeping troops more accountable for their actions including sexual exploitation sparks violent retaliation to our forces and those under our command by the local communities we serve. Soldiers that are accused and likely guilty must be charged, face suspension, and/or dismissal.
NORAD (North America Aerospace Defence Command) MISSILE DEFENCE SHIELD: Canada’s defence is inextricable linked with the United States. Our two countries share a common command structure and other assets through NORAD. Canada will create a proactive laser defence shield and anti-ballistic missile batteries to protect North America from any and all foreign launched supersonic missile attacks to prevent our extinction. Polar satellites to track all overflights of the Arctic region including cruise and hypersonic missiles, drones, submarines, and other naval vessels, with space-based and cyber defensive weapons. Canada will take the lead to build and operate a missile defence system covering all parts of Canada that is able to shoot down any North American threat from in space, the air, or in the sea. The goal is for the protection of 100% of Canada, 100% of the time from any missile, aircraft or form of ship threat or attack (Cost: $100-billion).
Nuclear Waste Materials: To become the go-to country for disposal of nuclear waste materials including weapons grade material with our nuclear conversion to fifth generation nuclear sites can dispose of 100% of all used nuclear materials. Building a Canadian Military Transport Cruiser for nuclear waste materials to have a UN Task Force with UN Observers and able to pick-up and deliver safety unwanted and requested destruction of nuclear wastes including weapon grade materials.
Own the North Program: See the creation of a few new artificial islands in the Arctic, so our published charts will actually be correct. Evolving the balance of power, while ensuring our presence is felt in the Canadian Northern Passage. Operating aircraft-carriers without the sovereign ability to protect them is complacent at best and potentially dangerous at worse.
Prisoner Program: Encouraging changes be made for prisoners and ex-prisoners they have an opportunity to enlist and help in the community under supervision. The current system makes it extremely difficult for ex-prisoners to serve their country. Our military would be a great opportunity for someone with a troubled past to get their life together.
Procurement Contracts Outstanding: For the first year of the Alternative Federal Budget, initiate a full payout forthwith on all outstanding government military procurement contracts to start a clean slate for year two and fast-track requisition of needed supplies. Guarantee acquisition of long-promised icebreakers and surface ships, and previous government signed contracts for our military and Canadian Coast Guard. A procurement process that can spit out high-tech weapons within a year rather than decades. We can re-tool the armed forces with the resources, weapons and tools they need in all fields.
Purchasing and Building in Canada: Modern airplanes, warships, and land equipment to meet and exceed in the adequate protection and safeguarding of all our borders and interests with plan to enhance our military with better transparency, recourse, and new technology and eliminate parts problems even if it adds 16% to costs. Thus, we no longer have to rely on foreign companies to support our new ships and aircrafts, and be lost without spare parts, servicing, and technical support when those foreign companies suddenly close down leaving our military vulnerable.
Rangers: Ensure that our 5,000 Rangers are fully equipped with all the equipment and services they need. Example: The 6,820 C19 Rifles ordered at $32.8-million are re-ordered at 300,000 for the influx expected (Cost: $1,442,815,249.27).
Recruits: Our Canadian Forces, has a current target of 68,000 active members for 2019. But, 2017 it is at 56,232 active members with 6,400 in-training plus 15,000 in holding due to injury, it leaves a significant shortfall of 11,768 trained members required to meet our needs to fulfill our current obligations. Providing a greater percentage of eligible and able bodied people to help with new personnel we require. Obviously, all recruits will have to pass all physical, mental, and emotional requirements. To attain gender equality, our policy is a three (3) female to one (1) male recruitment hiring policy per year until gender equality is reached. This will increase the number of visible minorities, especially and specifically targeting single women and non-binary people and their families in all parts of Canada. With 4,500 trained service personnel leaving each year, offer new long-term incentive programs so there is better service retention of those trained and leaving, with re-hiring previous members. At such a small force, we are in a unique niche to super-equip all our personnel with the latest in technology and materials.
Refugee Arms Training: Training women whom actually outnumber men would actually help to stabilize their home countries. Iranian school girls and others should go through arms training as their volunteer forces, women refugees must be allowed self-defence and Canadian arms training to be able to reclaim their homelands and protect themselves, their families, children, and communities from rape, torture, and oppression. Giving all the opportunity to return with resources would change the tide in their struggles. This is one of our long-term plans to actually turn the tide on the ongoing and never-ending refugee crisis against terrorism (Cost: $120-million).
Release $843-million Forthwith: To supply the 1,500 army trucks and related gear to the bid awarded US Contractor and withheld purchasing funds for materials and equipment.
Re-Supply & Bases: Investigate military avenues to expand in other areas (example: New Zealand and the Cook Islands) for new Canadian re-supply bases, for patrol and Canadian exercises. All our Canadian Forces authorized and required to protect all civilians in their range, especially Foreign Aid Workers are under fire or in distress.
Refurbishing Decommissioned Military Bases: Create new modern Military Bases at all twenty (20) new Deep Water Ports for the influx in travel, new refugees and immigrants, and our new modernized Military Transition Program. This will create a lot of immediate long-term jobs in all provinces and territories as all bases require immediate renovations.
Review: During this time we plan to fully review the entire Canadian Forces assets, implement a new fast-track and streamlined process including the issuance of a Green Paper based on broad public and expert consultation, followed by a White Paper establishes the government’s new position on acquisitions in light of all input and world affairs, this followed by our Red Paper, the actual budget costs for the military for full procurement (paid-in-full) for 3% GDP spending.
Safety: New oversight of all safety procedures and safety policies in the Canadian Forces.
Support Ships – Joint Support Ships: Installation of high-powered guns and other systems will be mandated on all support and resupply vessels including the Asterix. All supply vessels used by the navy must be able to defend themselves and be used in any combat zone by a full military crew. Asking any tasked ship is in need of critical supplies to continue operations and leave a combat zone to resupply is ludicrous when a resupply vessel must be capable and available to enter any operational areas and assist. No civilian ship Captain and civilian crew policy on all military ships (Cost: $1.7-billion each).
Space Force: A new branch of our Armed Forces to deal with any threat. The shared need to fulfill humankind’s destiny. To create numerous EKV (Eco-atmospheric kill vehicles), space stations, carriers, and manned outer bases. In the need to protect our launching pad for people eager to explore with the capability to defend our Canadian interests.
Tier-One Military: Doing anything we need or want without the assistance of another country, while streamlining and integrating our Canadian Forces into a modern super-power while participating in the new cold war called modernization.
Training: Clear guidance on training and access to key equipment including reconnaissance vehicles, command posts, and communications equipment for all our Reservists. The Canadian Forces will severely punish and sanction those members who take, share, post, or promote nude photos and sexual harassment either on Canadian soil or abroad.
Transgender Open Recruitment Policy: For soldiers whom would like to continue and serve in the defence of North America in Canada’s military with a Canadian citizenship granted after five (5) years of service. Gender will not be a barrier for persons who would like to serve and protect North America.
United Nations (UN): Push by Canada both host country and TCC (Troop Contributing Country), have jurisdiction if the TCC chooses not to prosecute the perpetrator, and the host country would still have that option. When we are more active and engaged with dedicated UN and NATO Task Forces with equipment, we will request a Permanent Seat on the United Nations Security Council and all other major coalitions that we are a partner with and give support funding to with our increased numbered blue helmets and blue berets serving Canada and our allies. Taking a moral and tough stand, pull all funding, personnel, and services from all organizations we are involved in but are not a full voting member of, until we are a full voting member.

Cannabis: Impose a paid 5 grams-a-day cap on Cannabis as per Health Canada recommendations. Canadian Forces Reservists and Regulars will all receive full-pension and death benefits under our government leadership for life.
Clean-up of Toxic Materials: As veterans are likely the ones to know where toxic chemicals and cover-up of dangerous materials has occurred in Canada, they will be tasked with locating and finding contaminated sites, reviewing all closed and open bases, previously used (current or sold) DND land that still may contain post WWI and WWII chemicals used for testing and analysis and ensuring they are cleaned up properly. Leaking chemical weapons the military had at one time used or tested and misplaced their location due to records being destroyed during clean-up, misplaced or misfiled.
Danger Pay: Ensure all veterans and current members have a fair danger pay scale can be relied upon will also compensate and ensure adequate funding for their children until their adult age of twenty-five.
INVICTUS: Support, assist, and help fund the INVICTUS games. Create national awareness of the games with access to the newest tools and services at the disposal of those in need with a disability. Opportunity to make recommendations for improvement on products and to own the latest new sport items. Example: www.standupandplay.org Para-golfing Wheelchair
Military Path to Citizenship: Open to any person denied residency or citizenship through the regular application process or can be done in parallel to it. Serving ten (10) years in the Canadian Military will automatically give you a Canadian Citizenship and your time served will be under a Military Residency Permit. This will be open to those with a criminal record or disqualified from entering Canada through the regular process or route. This option must be presented to all persons denied.
Military Grievances External Review Committee: (Cost: $6,695,009).
Military Veterans Act: Create the most generous veterans’ pension, Medical and Job Program with the help assistance of advocates for veterans. The days of unfairness is now over.
Pensions: Previous buy-out absolved upon written request and those funds paid-out will be considered and consolidated into a veteran loan at the current Bank of Canada interest rate. Cancel the lump sum payments and give everyone a pension so veterans don’t live in poverty, suffering from untreated physical and psychological injuries.
Personnel: Veterans Affairs responsible for all personnel decisions from now on due to the fact all personnel will eventually become veterans. Ensuring proper housing and education of all the current members and their immediate families.
Procurement: Immediate action taken on veterans and procurement oversight by former Veterans’ Ombudsman Colonel (retired) Pat Stogran, to be tasked with conducting a public inquiry starting today, as the only way to address the “culture of denial” that plagues Veterans Affairs Canada.
True Patriot Love National Program: Supports well-being of our military families, mental health, and physical rehabilitation of our injured soldiers. Relocating families closer to critical care, purchasing vehicles and equipment for seriously injured veterans, therapies for mental health (including experimental), and wellness, assistance with children with special needs and in transitioning our veterans into civilian life (Cost: $6-billion, at $500-million yearly).
Veteran Assistance: All wounded and injured soldiers including Reserves, will receive advanced treatment, financial, and medical help they need and deserve forthwith.

To ensure satellites, way stations, and other Canadian assets in space are protected.
Sport and Persons with Disabilities
Arena and Stadiums: Taxpayer money used in these ventures will include a calculated revenue clause for a percentage of all revenues generated equal to the amount invested by governments. We believe arenas must be 100% funded by the private sector. If they are good for business, let business pay for it. These will no longer be a free ride for corporations for tax exemptions and denied revenue to the provinces, territories, and federal governments. In-line with our Zero Government Bailout policy.
Canadian with Disabilities Act (CDA): A bold attempt to create a barrier-free Canada with new accessibility legislation. Making it easier to find an accessible home, to get an education in a supportive environment, to get a job, to access public transportation, to get financial help (if needed) with Personal Support Worker (PSW) and liberation technologies: $30,000 home elevators; $1,700 each individual ceiling lifts for bathrooms and bedrooms; $650 cushion to prevent pressure sores; #24,000 powerful wheelchair; $12,000 to $30,000 conversions for accessible vehicle (vans).
Canada Tour Le Tour de Canada: 30-day 8000 km August Cycling Tour appeals from the start not just for the distance and its grueling demands, but because it plays to a wish for national unity across Canada connecting all provinces and territories. An image of a Canada, united by its earth; over and around lakes, rivers, and streams; crossing valleys, plains, hills, and around mountains; muskegs (bogs), parks, and waterfalls; from sea, to sea, to sea organized by SyFy Industries Canada (Cost: policing/security by RCMP).
Olympic Program: Canada will honour these professional athletes not only with recognition but financially help them. An athlete must not arrive home to Canada to live in poverty or homeless and on the street after so much hard work. Implementing this Canadian Olympic Program will increase sports participation in all schools and we hope reduce the obesity in our children while at the same time we can finally honour our unsung athletes who have struggled financially to obtain their sports dreams with a little monetary compensation. (Cost: $100-million)
Modernization and creation of infrastructure for all Olympic qualifications to be held in as many Canadian cities as possible leading up to the Olympics so all Canadian athletes can qualify for Olympic event/demo in Canada prior to the next Olympics. Create a Canadian Anti-doping Organization accessible for all Canadians competing for the next Olympics.
All countries can send three (3) qualified individuals per event and Canada plans to make this happen with our Olympic mandate, “Fill the entire Roster”.
To do this and help our citizens, budget for a $25,000 pre-paid credit card for each athlete and their coach/trainer that qualifies to enter the Olympics including the Paralympics or Special Olympics World Games.
Our government will budget for each medal obtained by a Canadian a suggested: $1-million per gold medal, $750,000 per silver medal, and $500,000 per bronze medal is obtained drug-free by Canadian athlete at the Olympics or Paralympics in accordance to International Federation (IF) rules and regulations, and $100,000 for each coach/trainer for an individual qualification or team helps achieve this milestone to assist in training during the next four years and to compete with the proper infrastructure for all events including demo exhibitions, in all Olympics.
Air-fare, transportation, meals and lodgings provided and arranged by the Canadian Olympic Program for all athletes (+1) and their coaches/trainers (+1).
With financial security, these athletes can be mentors and coaches for a younger generation when they return to Canada (Cost: $100-million yearly escalated from the current $64-million “targeted excellence”).
New Olympic and Paralympic mandate for all Canadians: Fill the entire Roster.
Olympic sports summer events: 42.
Olympic sports winter events: 15.
Paralympic sports summer events: 24.
Paralympic sports winter events: 6.
Unified Policy for Sexual Abuse: Sports team training standards for all sports and gymnastics, 24/7 call centres, and federal policy that all federal, provincial, municipalities, and schools must follow as a minimum enforceable standard across Canada. Independent oversight and review by and not limited to random drug screenings and three-person interviews.
Historical Moments: May 14th, 1904, Canada competes in the Olympics, in St. Louis, for the first time. Etienne Desmarteau wins the hammer throw, making him the first Canadian Olympic medalist.
Natural Resources
National Resources Canada (NRCan) advances development of Canada’s economy by contributing to the development and use of Canada’s mineral and energy resources, in a manner consistent with federal environmental and social objectives, advances knowledge of the Canadian landmass through scientific and science-related activities (Cost: $2,780,935,421).

Resources belong to the people, and not privatize more than 49% nor sell off our majority share of natural resources.
Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission: (Cost: $135,737,179).
Clean Vehicle Goal: All vehicles to be either hybrid, hydrogen or all electric and sold in Canada by 2040 with mobility pricing as a gas tax replacement.
Electricity Rates Standards: What a Canadian pays for electricity at par with what Americans pay. Our party will put an end to higher rates for Canadians than Americans who buy our electricity and are charged only a fraction the costs. If anything, the costs for Americans for us to ship south must match the usage. This policy will also go towards our gas prices should be neatly in-line and at par with our counterparts in the USA. Going to the USA to get cheaper gas originated in Canada will be a thing of the past.
Energy Policy: Create universal energy usage fees for all Canadians. Tax breaks for companies developing and using renewable energy. Increase funding for off-shore wind farms and other renewable sources of energy. Sources the Beaver Party suggests for communities to consider (Cost: $30-million):
Wild Rivers: pipe to divert a portion of river water and waste water towards a turbine downstream;
Shale: fracturing underground formations to exploit shale natural gas; and
Smart Grids: every home equipped with solar panels and to generate electricity and sell it onto the smart grid.
Energy Research and Development: On renewable energy sources, PCB’s, and recycling in Canada.
e-Vehicle Rebate: Support Green Energy by maintaining the $5,000.00 rebate for the purchase of an electric motor vehicle and increase to a $10,000.00 rebate for two or more 100% electric motor vehicles per person. This program will cease in four years (Cost: $150-million).
Firefighting Drones: Researched starting at airports and then deployed in mobile units for firefighting employ sonic fire extinguishers that do not leave behind chemicals, powder, or water. These drones can be recharged by lasers in-flight and operate autonomously (Cost: $200-million).
National Firefighting Task Force: Working with Forest Enhancement Society to address shortfalls and modernize all primary, secondary, and forward attack bases and air tanker bases. (Cost: $600-million).
Firefighting Prisoner Program: Working alongside Correctional Services of Canada, implement a true Restorative Justice Program with firefighting trade certification available at all sites in Canada by work releases and full-time work upon parole and warrant expiry for all prisoners. Prisoners can assist in combating the 8,000-plus wildfires that threaten Canada yearly as their contribution to society in a meaningful way at minimum wage for adequate community bank funds upon their eventual release from prison.
Fire Marshall: Clear and allow an over-ride of any fire bans for all prisons for ceremonial sweats and sprit lodges with a water hose charged and available for use to put out the small fire.
Forest Ranger National Fire Department: Starting with a fleet of: Fireboat-70 (Metal Craft Marines, Cost $5-million each with initial purchases set at 100), Bulldog Fire trucks, new water-chemical bombers and sprayers (helicopters and small aircraft), and create and build a new fleet of modern Mars Water Bomber aircrafts (Bombardier C-series 300 at $103-million each converted but similar to the 747 Supertankers) for a large national fleet is available 24-hours-a-day and 7-days-a-week. This fleet can then be tasked and used abroad to combat natural or man-made fire disaster (Cost: $6-billion).
Forest Rangers: Work with provinces and escalate funding for R&D, advocate for newest fire-hydrants, materials and tools to fight fires, train, and protect our forests and communities (Cost: $200-million).
Green Energy - Ideas: Canadians are striving for reusable energy, a clean environment and clean drinking water, sanitation, housing, food, and safety with adequate defence of all our borders. This can be done using our pro-active ideas with clear statements specifically outlining what we plan to achieve to improve our country with our plans for reducing government red tape, increase services, shorten wait times, and to streamline all processes.
Green Energy: Phasing out all coal-based electricity plants and retraining workers for either continued coal exports or green energy production and usage.
Hiring Restrictions: Ease hiring restrictions with Forest Rangers and all Fire Departments to allow ex-prisoners the opportunity to service their communities and gain transferable job skills and meaningful employment.
National Energy Board (NEB): Overhaul for a more robust and activist committee panel. All meetings cancelled with communities must be rescheduled with 10-days’ notice with location in both official languages, recording input from all presenters with a count for all opposed and for the project.
National Grid – Power Makeover: Currently our electricity needs are met but comes from fossil fuels 28%, hydro 57.9%, nuclear 12.9%, and other 1.3%. Our plan is to ensure a High-Voltage DC (HVDC) enhanced grids buried networked across Canada to connect all provinces and territories for a weather smart grid to deliver the energy we need and to eliminate all electricity imports (estimated 2009 was 20-billion kwh. from the USA) to Canada.
Canada’s Energy Goals: 80% of its energy by renewable sources by 2040 and 100% by 2100. This will include a combination of storage, natural gas combined cycle, natural gas combustion turbines, rooftop solar, nuclear, hydropower, offshore wind, geothermal, onshore wind, and utility-scale solar.
Nature Needs Half: Our ultimate goal is to ensure nature receives and needs half the surface of Earth in Canada that is our lands, seas and fresh waters as protected areas with little to no human infringement and contamination with an environmental clean-up policy if this occurs.
Ontario Electricity Support Program: Expand to all provinces and territories with national capped rates for all electricity charges and a zero cut-off policy with adequate appeals on bills process.
Public Employees Increase: Education, healthcare, child care, a strong respected defence policy and modernization, free trade, create meaningful jobs for now and the future, more environmental awareness with protection, and address those with no families, because we care.
Renewable Power Sources: No more spot rates, homeowners allowed to get paid on excess surplus power being put back on the grid through solar and wind generation, which will support the transition to renewable power sources, a win-win situation. Increase charging stations (free) and super-charging stations ($10.00 fee) with light post integrated stations across Canada at a 1:1 ratio (Cost: $150-million).
Solar: To help our energy policies, ensure all new homes have solar panels integrated onto their roofs (one panel per person) or another renewable energy source (water or wind turbine) and all apartments, condos, and business buildings have green gardens and at reasonable solar panel coverage or turbines on their roofs to supplement their operations with a “smart grid.”
Wind Turbines: Federal manufacturing of large wind turbines and their transport ships with the deep water ports to handle the shipping of large wind turbines at sea and on land. Off-shore development specialty for a new North American market.
Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada
Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada is responsible for all matters related to agriculture. Examples of services include the following: Research, Development and Technology; policies and programs; the inspections and regulation of animals and plant-life forms; the coordination of rural development; the support of agricultural productivity and trade; the stabilization of farm incomes; and the provision of information.
The goals of Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada are as follows: to achieve security of the food system; to ensure health of the environment; and to provide innovation for growth.
Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada reports to Parliament and Canadians through the Minister of Agriculture & Agri-Food and the Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board.
Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is responsible for all inspection services related to food safety, economic fraud, trade-related requirements, and animal and plant health programs.
Canadian Grain Commission: (Cost: $38-million).
Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) serves farmers in Western Canada who grow wheat, durum wheat, and barley. The main function is to market these grains in Canada and abroad.
Canadian Dairy Commission (CDC) serves the interests of all dairy stakeholders, including produces, processors, further processors, exporters, consumers and governments. The following are the key objectives of the CDC: providing efficient milk and cream producers with the opportunity to obtain a fair return for their labour and investment; and ensuring an adequate supply of high quality dairy products for consumers (Cost: $73-million).
(Costs: $2,466,711,107)
Agriculture Canada Seed Vaults: Similar to the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, used to securely store at 130-metres above current sea levels at -18°C a variety of Canadian and world seeds in the case of any natural disaster (average world temperature rises 5°C and decimates all Canadian crops), to protect and save all our agriculture products while global climate change is ongoing, and have it only accessible twice-a-year (Cost: $5-million each, operating costs at $1-million per year).
Agriculture: To assist Agri-food, Canada’s economic super-cluster, redirect all current agriculture research funding towards public and independent third party research in the public interest, and will reverse cuts to public agricultural research.
Agricultural Migrant Workers: Agricultural worker experience in Canada as a new clear pathway to citizenship. An opportunity to gain a foothold in Canadian society. Temporary Foreign Worker Program and its Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program will ensure that full access to Health Care for each worker and will include any accompanied children.
Ban on Foreign-ownership of all Farmland: Canadians must own the title to all property in Canada. Property tax exempt farmland must now be 75% farmed yearly to qualify as a farm tax exempt or it taxed at the local assessed and latest actual sale price.
Canada Food Inspection Agency: To maintain world class inspection and safety standards by the public. The goal is to have the safest food in the world and to eliminate the conflict of interest it currently finds itself in. This can only be done by splitting the Canada Food Inspection Agency into two completely separate entities and budgets:
CFISA - Canada Food Inspection Safety Agency (Cost: $782-million); and
CFIPA - Canada Food Inspection Promotion Agency (Cost: $100-million).
The CFIPA will create a Canadian Certification Standards and Testing with federal labelling for all consumable products.
Extra funding provided for all the proper tools like a dedicated Nuclear Magnetic Resonance machine (NMR).
Example: Honey, to give security to people buying it. The CFIPA will determine if cheap sweeteners have been added. To determine if honey is mixed with rice syrup or corn syrup, and thus root out ‘adulterated’ honey and to determine the actual percentage of cheap sweeteners that have been added on honey.
True Labeling: If 98% additives (corn syrup and rice syrup) is added to a honey brand, then the label on the front should read “2% Honey” and not just “Honey.”
Deposits on all Food Cartons: This would reduce litter problems including disposable coffee cups, milk jugs, and plastic cutlery, increased recycling while creating new revenues and employment opportunities for those in need of employment.
Essential Goods and Services: Lowering the costs of our essential goods and services to be in-line and fair as other countries.
Free Trade: Support actual free trade with our farmers and allow all the access to free markets without penalties.
Examples: Maple syrup producers in any province/territory can sell to anyone anywhere without risk of fines or fees and cannot be penalized for not joining specific cartels or organizations that deal with their products. Cannabis & Alcohol products made in one province/territory will be allowed for sale and shipment into all provinces/territories without restriction or penalty.
We will knock down provincial and territorial barriers so every Canadian citizen is entitled to work, study, move to, or visit, any part of Canada, regardless of their home address; be entitled to Health Care without upfront cost to themselves; and unrestricted ability to move goods (including alcohol, cannabis, and tobacco) and people more freely within our borders and not be further taxed and/or fined after any purchase in Canada. Work with local governments to standardize all taxes.
Free Trade Agreements: Any countries skirting with new imposed duties or “Anti-dumping Fees” will find themselves also incurring the exact same reverse duties on like items shipped into Canada.
Example: Softwood Lumber duties of 20.5% reversed by Canada at the same time to have exact same 20.5% for all Softwood Lumber Products imported into Canada by the country imposing the unfair Free Trade Duty. All main negotiators and signers of Trade Agreements must be elected and also be composed of 25% First Nations elected negotiators.
Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO): Mandating clear GMO labeling on all food sold or used in Canada including animal feed stocks.
Health for Farmers: Farm stress mental health program to assist the farming community and their families.
Health Numbers (NPN): Modify the rules around NPN, specifically for supplements and create fines and penalties for misuse and mandatory retraction if determined it is dangerous to the health of Canadians.
National Research Council (NRC): Return the mandate of the NRC to research in the public interest, including curiosity-based research, rather than the current requirement for NRC-funded research to be tied to commercial interests.
School Food Program: Supporting local farmers and Canadian industries by supplying schools with fresh produce for their 7-days-a-week and three-meal program (breakfast, lunch and dinner), and teaching the staff, parents, and children how to pick & harvest, store, cook, and eat healthy Canadian foods (Cost: $1.36-billion).
Seed Act for Farmers: (Cost: $6-million)
The right of farmers to exchange and sell seed, including through farmer-owned organizations such as co-operatives, non-profit associations and associations;
The unrestricted right of farmers to grow, save and use seed for planting, which cannot be negated by any contract;
Plant breeders’ rights legislation would confer the right to claim royalties only at the time of seed sale;
Following expiration of plant breeders’ rights, varieties would not be in the public domain, allowing for their unrestricted use and availability under a general public license;
A Variety Registration System would protect farmers and our food system by ensuring registered varieties of seed meet farmers’ needs for quality, reliability, and agronomic conditions across Canada. This system would ensure varieties remain in the public domain after expiration of plant breeders’ rights and are cancelled only if evidence, including input from Framers Recommending Committees, supported the cancellation;
It would also require robust, independent, third party merit testing for new varieties to ensure they are as good as or better than existing varieties, and forbid gene patents or other patent mechanisms on seed; and
Long-term operations of the Tree Seed Plant with at least six (6) staff and two (2) cats or Mice Control Technicians (Cost: $1-million per year).
Supply Management System (SMS): Review and eliminate quotas and parts that are not helpful for Canadian agriculture. Helping our farmers by protecting and re-enforcing our SMS with long-term cash advances for all our family farmers, maintaining risk management and countering market price volatility by:
Ensuring any and all Trade Agreements have the protection of the Canadian SMS at its core;
Affordable and adequate Agri-insurance;
Agri-stability (4-year average);

Prime Minister of Canada
The Prime Minister is the leader of the party in power and is the Head of Government.
A Prime Minister’s duties include presiding over Cabinet meetings, meeting official foreign delegations to Ottawa, and answering questions in the House of Commons.
Since the Prime Minister usually is a Member of Parliament (two Prime Ministers who held office in the 1890’s were Senators), he or she also spends time helping constituents. New aircrafts: Osprey ($72-million); and Next-Generation Concorde.
All trips outside of Canada are considered official visits and should leave with a signed Trade Deal. They involve hard work and involve actually visiting and touring companies as Business Trips to see and determine the answer to, “Where can Canadian investors make a difference?” These visits are clearly different and apart from the Governor General doing State Visits.
Pourvoir en révision: Addition to the Criminal Code of Canada to allow the Prime Minister of Canada to acquit including expungement any current or former prisoner in any jurisdiction in Canada. Petition to obtain an acquittal and non-revocable pardon by the Prime Minister of Canada (PM). This will be fully independent of the Judicial System, open to any person serving a serious crime, with a letter of referral from an organization or petition stating they have uncovered supressed or new exculpatory evidence. The PMO (Prime Minister’s Office) will have the authority to review forthwith, all the Defence files, any evidence, CSC files, and Crown files and make a recommendation to the Prime Minister as an impartial final determination to grant either an acquittal pardon and exonerate with damages or to confirm the original conviction order(s).
Goals: Ready access to the Prime Minister of Canada by all third world leaders and Throne Speech by the Prime Minister.
Purdy, Kelvin K.
In full Kelvin Kingsbury Purdy.
Born February 23, 1968, Dryden, Ontario, Canada as Kelvin Lee Bialkoski-Perkins. Métis with Washoe and Ukrainian ancestors.
A first in Canadian politics, Kelvin Purdy is a prisoner and does not qualify to be running for federal riding and constituency. But, he is the elected Leader of the Beaver Party of Canada, a federal political party and according to Elections Canada rules, the person that would become Prime Minister of Canada when his party, the Beaver Party of Canada wins the majority of seats in the House of Commons and he is allowed by law, the chance to form government first.
Kelvin Purdy, Canadian put his hyperkinetic mind to good use as a chef, consultant, philanthropist, adventurer, entrepreneur, CEO of SyFy Industries Canada (Bed & Breakfast and Galactic Spaceport Canada), Director of Canada Tour 🍁 Le Tour de Canada, Founder of the Beaver Party of Canada, and twice elected their Leader while suffering for the past fifteen-years plus as a true political prisoner in British Columbia, Canada. He is dedicated to doing what he enjoys and is proving people wrong with his specialty in strategic analysis. His flaw is he is predictable in he cannot do less than his best. He strongly believes inventing a job is far better than finding a job.
After spending painful time with Children’s Services #METOO & #WHATNOW. He was rescued and adopted at age five by father Dean Kingsbury Purdy, an Anglican minister and adopted mother Helen Isabel Purdy, a registered nurse. He witnessed the birth of three sisters Jennifer, Laura, & Elizabeth.
Purdy graduated 1987 Lakefield College School, commendation roll with honours. A quiet man of kind actions, his interests range from debating to archery, submarine kayaking and scuba diving in the Otonabee River. Purdy’s responsible leadership as Head of Outdoor Education, Brigantine officer, and Algonquin Park trip leader made the transition to post-secondary fields easy in mechanical engineering, computer programming, and the Arts with a graduate diploma from McMillan College in Hospitality & Tourism.
Purdy skilled in computational thinking, has pursued flying with a specialty in experimental aircrafts design and was working on a fire-fighter certification from the Justice Institute of British Columbia. When asked: What gets you up in the mornings? Seeing my life unfold. What do you think about? Conceptulizing ideas.
Achievements abound: Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award (presented by HRH Prince Charles), member of the Nordic & Alpine ski teams, English horseback riding, windsurfing & sailing, cycling, football and soccer teams, rocketry & astronomy clubs, computer programming, and constant practicing with the Concert and Stage Bands playing the flute and piccolo with performances at Roy Thompson Hall and Canada’s Wonderland. Purdy also received the H.M. Silver Jubilee Award, “The senior boy who best combines the qualities of being sensitive to the feelings of others, protective of those weaker than himself, courteous to his peers and staff, and sufficiently courageous to accept the promptings of his conscience.”
At age-25, Purdy located and reunited with his biological father Hal Perkins, pulp & paper mill operator and biological mother Leona (Bialkoski) Whiting, a long-term care worker. Kelvin has a younger brother Lawrence Michael Perkins. His biological father, Hal Perkins divorced and remarried to Virgie Ricolito and had two children, daughter Angelina and son Ilya. His biological mother, Leona Bialkoski remarried Wayne Whiting and both have been a tremendous support network for him. He is biologically related to the Perkins, Smith, Bialkoski, and Pollard’s in and around Dryden, Ontario and Eagle River Reserve.
Kelvin’s first daughter was born in 1991, Amanda Stephanie Girard-Purdy with common-law partner Kathleen Girard. Their relationship terminated in 1993 and Ontario Children’s Services without notice motioned the courts for a change in venue to Ottawa while they refused to visit him at his new residence and allow Mr. Purdy the opportunity to raise his daughter even though a change in circumstances occurred for Purdy whom had vacationed and had married his Dominican Republic 3-year pen-pal Denise Aldagrisa Liranzo-Marté and added her last name. The new couple eventually had two children: Stephanie Esther Purdy (1994) and Kimberley Kingsbury Purdy (2000). They separated in 2001-2002 due to his wife’s infidelity with an RMCP officer. Mr. Purdy moved and worked in Pemberton/Whistler. They reconciled in 2002, moved back together and Purdy opened a branch in Nanaimo, PPL Legal Care of Canada - Pre-Paid Legal Services Inc. as sole owner and Associate Manager. After ten years of marriage, the Purdy’s mutually divorced in 2003 during his chef certification where he was continuing his pursuit to open his new company SyFy Industries Canada, a Bed & Breakfast in space fulfillment dream through a Culinary Arts diploma from Malaspina University (Vancouver Island University). His wife was beaten by Charles Panet on December 11, 2003, as indicated by yellow bruising on her body and the Coroner reported it as a sign of healing.
Kelvin Purdy was falsely arrested on December 12, 2003, circumstantially convicted as DNA exclusionary proof of factual innocence was deliberately withheld by his trial Counsels Mayland McKimm and Susan Wishart (DNA expert Donald E. Riley, Ph.D. and reconfirmed by Dean Hildebrand, Ph.D. both excluded Purdy’s DNA from the crime scene and identify two distinct separate alternative DNA suspects profiles). Both of Purdy’s Counsels have appeared to have been rewarded in their appointments to judges during Purdy’s appeal where he was forced to defend himself without Counsel. Purdy was denied new appeal Counsels and denied leave to appeal his case in the Supreme Court of Canada. His DNA exclusion case is currently before the Minister of Justice and Criminal Conviction Review Group.
Purdy wrote about his situation and published several e-books (the first for a Canadian prisoner still detained) titled: Overlooked; Look; and DNA Overlooked (bestseller novella of Overlooked) available on www.Smashwords.com to accomplish his goal and of getting new Counsels interested in his closed case for a pro-bono Ministerial review application and for the Minister to investigate why an RCMP truck was seen leaving the crime scene and not investigated as suspects when two unknown male DNA profiles were found. We all wait for the Minister of Justice to order Mr. Kelvin Purdy’s immediate release based on overwhelming exclusionary DNA evidence, or in the intern while a review is being conducted, order an in-cell computer with unrestricted internet access, review of his over classification as Métis, direct at least minimum wage pay for work done for CSC according to the Minimum Wage Act, and an immediate transfer to Williamhead Institution.
Purdy’s family heritage (Washoe, Ojibwa, Cree, Blackfoot, Algonquin, and Mohawk) with ancestors (Ukrainian, English, French, Spanish, Scottish, Irish, Mexican, American, German, Polish, Turkish, Roman, Aztec, Viking, and Nomad) self-identifies as Métis. “To be clear, a small part of me is Indigenous, but it’s a huge part of who I am.” He is the Hereditary Chief of the Steppin’ Stone, a Métis Community, and filing to government for preliminary review for certification as a municipality in British Columbia.
He put his detention time to good use actively participating with the AWC (Aboriginal Wellness Committee) with Healing and Sharing circles, pipe ceremonies, spirit lodges, sweat lodges, mentor, tutor, language songs, Psych-K, spirit baths, Pow-Wow’s, Change-Of-Seasons, events, and teaching crafts like dream catchers, star blankets, carving, drum making, stained-glass and painting. Against all adversity, he acquired a Masters in Creative Writing through the Fraser Valley Creative Writing School by publishing his memoirs as his thesis. Over time he organized & assisted a variety of groups benefitting prisoners: President of the Lifer and Long Term Offenders Group, Inside Co-ordinator for the M2/W2 group www.M2W2.com (Man to man, Woman to woman), former member of the IWC (Inmate Wellness Committee), Chaplain’s Clerk, Tutor, and Hobby Shop mentor though a very accomplished and requested stained-glass artist. He played his flute in chapel during services for years until exchanging it for a keyboard and leading the choir. Institutional charge free, warehoused at Pacific Institution for 14-years with all programs completed and following the assigned Correctional Wellness Plan but CSC has overridden his security due to his Hereditary Chief status of Steppin’ Stone, a Métis Community, and proving his innocence.
By 2015, Purdy entered politics for the first time by creating his own platform and political party, the Beaver Party of Canada, www.BeaverParty.ca where he was elected their leader in 2015 and re-elected in 2016 to be the first Canadian prisoner running in the 2023 federal election for Prime Minister. He set forth his groups centre position between the left (liberals) and right (conservatives) political views, taking the best ideas out of all registered political parties and combining them in the Beaver Party of Canada’s published platform with many of his own ideas and dreams.
The criterion, a leader who lives for the great Beaver vision for Canada and has agreed to a blind trust of all his assets if elected as a Member of Parliament and as our next Prime Minister of Canada.
Purdy is one the best business minds I know and has been impeachable in his conviction. He has withstood adversary with his solid foundation and trust in people will ultimately right their wrongs when cornered with evidence and make proper amends. Purdy has marketed his Beaver Party name brand with the hope and likelihood of forming majority Canadian government and also provincial and territorial governments with his sound policies, hard work, and support of over a million prisoners and their families, various indigenous and minority groups. Purdy’s assets are held in a Blind Trust. Kelvin Purdy has taken several organizations to the next level with his numbingly patient and brilliant mind while continuing his on-going work as a Venture Capitalist to fulfill his own star filled dreams. He has a linear narrow focus and extremely hard time at not finishing a task to the very best of his abilities.
He has been beaten and vexatious denied Minimum Security and the benefit of the doubt to prove his ability to function by being in a lesser security environment by clear racist IPO’s, and key Management staff at Pacific Institution after asserting his Métis status, as viewed by the valid complaints and grievances against CSC and his court applications have been denied filings and/or whitewashed for their benefit. Only a full Administrative Review of his entire case, all court filings, and his unfair treatment while detained will be able to review and rectify and hopefully terminate those involved in theft of his religious medicine box, cell effect items, falsification of assessment documents, ignoring of key Elder Reviews, reducing pay, not paying for work done, destruction of his Educational Materials and access by the Manager of Programs, and excessive punitive delay tactics with the denied timely access to all his files. At Pacific Institution, he has been bullied and beaten by several staff resulting in a broken leg, dislocated back, fractured skull, black eyes, broken teeth (then extracted by dentist), buttocks bruising, and muscles torn, and then a few days later personal items are stolen as token souvenirs.
Correctional Services of Canada (CSC) frustrated his minimum security rating and transfer requests to Vancouver Island, unfairly lowered his pay, and implemented forced 7-day labour for 5-day slave labour pay. CSC has occasionally taken the extreme measure of denying federal, provincial and territorial voter registration and denied access to the all elections phone numbers for election registration and voting; and further frustration by the elimination of electronic library legal research materials required for court filings (Martin’s law library) from library computers and removed printers from unit computers. Imprisoned, tortured physically and mentally by CSC staff, beaten, abused, and yet he retained his integrity, dignity, and kind-heartedness and believes in the system while he prays for a parliament committee review of all his filed grievances, the Law Society review, and case files.
Some of his children have been brainwashed by Victim Services - RCMP and their biased lawyer Stephen McPhee, into believing that their father is guilty even with clear DNA exclusionary proof of his innocence. What kind of people would remove the thought and hope from children, refuse Gladue rights or deny family members their reconciliation through supervised parole and the requested trauma treatment?
When asked about love, he replied: “I’m looking for someone who won’t lie, cheat, or steal. Except to lie with me, cheat death, and steal my heart.” Thinking first and praying to keep his ancestors, family, friends, children and grandchildren safe daily, attending Spirit Baths and Spirit Lodges, and other ceremonies, while living his solitude days by his poem:
Turn the page, don’t look back,
Smile;
Do and leave today better, than you did yesterday;
Write, or do something worth writing about;
You are the sum of the people you surround yourself with;
Family, you are born into;
Friends, are the family you get to choose;
You are never given a dream by the Creator;
Without also being given the power to make it come true;
However, you may have to work for it.
Lalem Xeyíyá:qt “House of the Transforming Warrior”
Lalem Xeyíyá:qt Mission Statement: This Unit strives to provide Indigenous Residents with a living environment within Pacific Institution where various Elder driven and CSC interventions serve to develop and support spiritual, mental, physical and emotional balance through the Seven Sacred Teachings, increasing knowledge of cultural and traditional teachings, the development or improvement of life skills, and participation in ceremony.

Disclosure to the public and media may only be done upon a 100% match or 35 out of 35 alleles, a partial match is just speculation and would create more harm than good with disclosure of persons of interest named. If names are disclosed and DNA results factually exclude them, the public must be informed forthwith by CBC. Automatic Leave to Appeal to the SCC granted (Cost: $1-million).
Drone Program: Police Drone Program able to identify and track suspects that use lasers at drivers and pilots.

Paid leave pending allegations evaluated every 30-days on the likelihood of success, a full taxpayer payback clause added. The primary goal to modernize the antiquated laws and make it easier for an officer to be fired and/or seriously sanctioned directly by their supervisor for misconduct to save time and money on a reduction in quasi-judicial tribunals plaguing the police forces. Charges will be filed regardless if still employed. Police must be held to a higher standard as others and prosecution court actions must show this. All officers charged with the use of a new Special Prosecutor Division to combat police corruption and to re-gain the public’s trust in all police forces and the justice system (Cost: $1-million).
Fit For Duty: Standard set at 12-hours clean (alcohol and intoxicant free including cannabis: food, smoke, eVape, oils) or one will be Fired for Cause as Unfit For Duty.
Forensic Science Research Evaluation: Standardize all departments so they do not employ unreliable or untested techniques and show inconsistencies between evaluators and evidence. This will help curb the trend in innocent people that have been convicted based on junk forensic science.
Fraud Division: Expanded to include all government facilities including federal ones like the Correctional Services of Canada. Examples: 1) Ordering CSC vehicle parts or machines and then selling them on-line for cash; 2) servicing personal vehicles while substituting and using VIN numbers of CSC vehicles not serviced will both be considered theft and chargeable offences with grounds for immediate dismissal for both or parties involved. The revisions will make it easier to automatically dismiss rogue officers in any province or territory immediately especially upon damming video surfacing of blatant misconduct. Public servant, police, RCMP, CSC officer, caught on camera abusing a suspect or prisoner automatically terminated, regardless of the outcome at court. Eliminating bad apples for those in authority is our policy.
Full-body Video Cameras: Stabilizing video and audio cameras on all officers across Canada. Install hidden gun detection CMR 1000 Systems to ensure safe schools, transportation, hospitals, buses, subways, trains, and public access areas.
Irregular Border Crossings: Sometimes incorrectly referred to as “Illegal Border Crossings,” any entry into Canada is not an offence in the Criminal Code of Canada. Those with temporary CBSA processing areas will arrange to have immigration hearings with a local in-person justice or by teleconference with a translator on the same day immediately after processing to eliminate the current court backlog. All will be allowed to claim asylum and start a new life.
Illegally Obtained Bonuses and Overtime: Taxpayers will have independent accounting of all federal organizations when a grievance is filed on either Bonuses or Overtime to ensure they comply and are not skimmed from another program. Example: First Aid Level-3 for prisoners cancelled for manager bonuses and more unnecessary staff overtime at Pacific Institution.
Innocence Protection Act: To ensure convicted offenders are afforded an opportunity to prove their innocence through DNA testing and exclusion in a timely manner. Help provinces and territories provide competent legal services at every stage of court and appeal. Enable those who can prove their innocence to recover some measure of compensation, licences renewals, reintegration programs, victim services for their unjust incarceration and reintegration back into society. Provide the public with more reliable and detailed information regarding the administration of the nation’s punishment laws (Cost: $20-million per year).
Innocence Protection Act Education: Funding will provide a variety of DNA education, training, research and identification programs are independent of the police, Crown, Defence, and that the courts will rely upon for truth finding by expert scientific analysis.
Lateral Movement: Along with our modernized police forces, encourage lateral movement across the police forces to help reduce burn-out and help with standardization of all pay, duties, responsibilities, procedures and policies.
Mandated Forced Retirement: All officers at thirty-five (35) years of service for 70% pay. This will allow for new officers to be hired and properly trained if needed.
Model Prosecutor: Addition to the Criminal Code of Canada. Prosecutors who do not file a petition of revision in favor of a defendant based on DNA exclusionary evidence within a year of being aware of it, must be charged with obstruction of justice and sentenced to the same length of sentence they ensured their defendant received. Prosecutors and lawyers filing on behalf of any defendant and having a wrongful conviction overturned, must be the only ones referred to the bench as Justices. Lawyers would suddenly have more time to do pro bono work on case reviews for the wrongfully convicted and getting their convictions overturned.
Open the DNA Data Bank: Open access to all citizens of Canada to verify for themselves if an officer’s DNA profile was located at a crime scene for proper scientific elimination and defence of any suspected suspects. Familial DNA searches will help nab people who might otherwise have evaded justice. This expanded for and by requests from defence. Police must be transparent about both the efficiency and the collateral damage of familial DNA searching. For better transparency, all testing must include EDTA tests to determine if anticoagulants are found in the samples tested. The presence of preservatives would determine that blood came from a test tube in a crime lab and it was planted.
Pay: The number one issue with our police services. Moratorium and legislative capping individual CSC overtime per pay period is the first step in all CSC pay re-evaluations and getting a handle on finance waste. Push to implement the same pay scale for all essential services: police officers, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Canadian Border Security Officers, Paramedics, Firefighters, and Correctional Services of Canada (CSC) officers. With increases in the yearly pay levels up to fourteen (14) years. Those officers who wish to increase their learning and careers, our plan has several additional levels of pay will not be received until after approved certification with a higher top end of pay. Examples: Bilingual in French and English = increased one pay level and top end pay increase; Mental Health training = increased one pay level and top end pay increase.
Pay vs. Termination: The worst case scenario would be to terminate all CSC officers and bring in the military to take control of all prisoners in the federal system and then merging them with the Canadian Forces prison system where reasonable standing orders, procedures, and policies are actually followed to the letter across Canada. Example: Done on Air Traffic Controllers in the USA when service was disrupted because pay disputes arose and their unions have never recovered since then.
Perjury & Circumstantial Cases: Circumstantial cases will no longer be supported by Crown. Crown mandated to charge all persons including those coerced by police or other officials into perjuring themselves. All persons charged with perjury along with officers inciting or participating in coercing. Increase sentences for public officers that lie or try to supress exclusionary evidence during an investigation or under oath including forthwith termination of service if caught in perjury.
Police Carding: A zero tolerance for “carding” or “street checks” by stopping pedestrians for identification verification and searching of persons in Canada except for while on public transportation, and border crossings include: airports, train stations, bus terminals, or ferry boats. All checks video and sound recorded with all the officers’ names and badge numbers conducting the identification and search to be supplied forthwith to a person being searched and delayed.
Police Service Act: Update all legislation involving police services in Canada. The elimination of all forms of rogue police officers or Gypsy Cops (deliberately purging of files at an officers discretion without tracking, consequences or identification) and thus Crowns cases are at serious risk of being thrown out. To fix this problem, all typing and deletion including corrections logged and tagged with electronic copies of all originals forwarded and organized at a central and secure locked-in file storage archives. Potentially every keystroke is monitored and echoed with the name, audio and video photo of the user for true accountability and re-correction of “mistakenly deleted” file information. Reform with the ability of a Police Chief or the Minister to suspend any officer without pay and to limit authorized paid suspensions to a maximum of six (6) months. Discipline of Police Chiefs and their members will be from a sitting Justice with the power to enforce change. Revise to streamline all police investigations and Crown must be informed forthwith (before the end of a shift or be considered as an accomplice) of any misconduct and criminality by any police members. Police refusing to be interviewed over alleged assault or deceit will be suspended without pay for 7-days and pay lowered 1-level for each week of non-compliance for a taped interview in an ongoing investigation, after four (4) weeks, the officer(s) terminated (Cost: $1-million).
Police: De-militarize and re-training municipal police for fairness for a full reformed and modernized police forces. Restructure with an increase for funding to RCMP-GRC to bring them up-to-date with technology, public obligations, and sediments. Non-lethal force is to be employed prior to all shootings to immobilize suspects first with lethal force only brought out and used in rare cases.
Police Alternate Suspect Elimination Act: Must seriously consider the elimination of reasonable doubt before presenting a case to the fact-finder Prosecutor and Crown.
Police Eye Witness Reform – Eye Witness Laws: Guidelines mandatory for all police to follow, including all police that create and those that conduct a photo lineup, not to know who the suspect actually is, police lineups must also have the people wearing the same items of clothing and nothing to distinctly distinguish any person from another in the lineup. Example: only one person handcuffed or chained or in a headlock with other officers in the lineup.
Privacy Commissioner of Canada and Office of Information: Speed up requests for information and access by going digital with computers and internet no longer being a “security issue” within Correctional Facilities. Internet access is a Human Right. The only way to speed up the two-year access to information requests to within 30-day as the Community Standard. Adding teeth and power to enforce, adequate resources to fulfill mandate, and actual visits to all prison sites with in-person interviews to all those indigent, denied or restricted access to forms, stamps, and writing materials and phone accessible by all prisoners (Cost: $43,629,683).
Prostitution Reform Act: Adopting a Canada-New Zealand decriminalization model makes it easier for sex workers and others to report incidents of exploitation. Treating as a business and trade with education, licencing, and taxing will create better safety and help reduce the high risks in this new yet old profession while at the same time amending antiquated laws. Encourage Universities and Colleges to offer courses, programs, and certification in this field. Allow sex workers to access social security benefits are available to all other workers in legal labour activities while at the same time protecting migrant sex workers (Cost: $10-million):
Prostitution - Abuse: Increased ability to report coercive or abusive third parties to police. New Zealand’s laws have empowered sex workers to press charges and successfully sue the third parties who have attempted to extort, coerce, or sexually harass them. Post-decriminalization survey of 772-sex workers indicates the vast majority feel better able to obtain police assistance in dangerous situations. Bill C-36, remove the following: s.213(1); s.213(1.1); s.213(2); s.286.1(1); s.286.1; s.286.2(1); s.286.2(2); s.286.2(3); s.286.2(4); s.286.2(5); s.286.2; s.286.3(1); s.286.3; s.286.4; s.286.4; s.286.5; and s.286.5.
Prostitution - Monitor: An above-ground sex trade makes it easier to monitor for trafficking. Criminalization creates an antagonistic relationship among sex workers and police. When the sex industry is pushed further underground, trafficking becomes even more difficult to monitor and combat. The New Zealand model encourages an above-ground sex trade where venues are monitored for compliance with occupational health and safety guidelines. This in turn increases communication and collaboration among sex workers and the police – a necessity if trafficking is to be meaningfully addressed.
Prostitution & Children: Those forcing and coercing children into prostitution will receive lengthier sentencing, fines, and treated as sexual predators and entered into the on-line public tracking national database of sex offenders with their current location in Canada. Including increased penalties for taking under aged children outside of Canada for marriage and sex.
Public Video Surfacing: Crown will swiftly act on videos surfacing of an officer’s abuse of authority, with options of sanctions and immediate termination and charges (just like the USA when they terminate the employment of officers within 24-hours of a videos surfacing in the media of Officers blatant physical abuse or killing of a suspect). Or those that abuse their authority by blanket sanctions as punishment of prisoners. Example: Range restrict prisoners prior to open movement times.
Random Breath & Drug Testing: Restricting mandatory roadside screenings to stationary checkpoints all drivers pass through and are all tested would reduce the concerns about racial profiling.
Sanctions: Creating better enforced laws for suppression and altering of evidence. Those that conceal or distort evidence, or otherwise subvert the process of justice and break the public trust must not escape criminal and civil sanctions. These will include disbarment for those individuals as a possible penalty. Police cannot hide behind the authority of their position and claim ignorance about what others under their authority were doing. All held accountable for their misdeeds and the misdeeds of their subordinates. The police force will no longer be a job for life without fear of consequences for ones actions or inactions. Our party will ensure this right of entitlement is now over.
Seismologists: Employed by the Emergency Preparedness Task Force (Cost: 1-million).
Seized Items and Money: All items confiscated automatically returned to their rightful owners at the conclusion of investigation or conviction date (whichever is sooner) without a letter or request from the owner. This includes all money seized and held and paid back with interest at the average overdraft credit card interest rate or 18.5%, whichever is higher.
Sex by Persons in Authority: Police and other public service workers including drivers (taxi, limo, ride-share) having sex on the job considered valid grounds for immediate termination and revoking of all their security licences. Public taxpayers must no longer have to pay for federal workers to have sex on the job. Public trust and safety is our number one issue. Officers not interfering when viewing a sexual act on camera in a jail by prisoners being raped, charged as accomplices to sexual predators.
Statistics: Police chiefs must be mandated to publish annual statistics regarding how many searches are conducted, what percentage of those result in convictions, how many suspects are cleared after enduring a stressful period of suspicion, and have expungement of both the sample and profile of suspects without affirmation action from the individual.
Strengthening Forensic Sciences in Canada: Forensic Science System, encompassing both research and practise, has serious problems can be addressed by a national commitment to overhaul the current structure that supports the forensic science community. Areas determined flawed and in need of more research are: accuracy and error rates of forensic analysis, sources of potential bias and human error in interpretation by forensic experts, fingerprints, tool marks, firearms examinations, bite marks, impressions (tires, footwear), bloodstain pattern analysis, handwriting, hair, coatings (for example paint), chemicals (including all drugs), materials (including fibers), fluids, serology, fire and explosive analysis, and DNA exclusion (Crown experts must inform the courts even if one DNA number does not match, the suspect must be excluded; and Crown must not proceed with charges on factually proven innocent).
Technology Modernize: Escalate the technology of our police personnel with more non-lethal armaments and increased positive presence in the community. Ensure all officers have a clearer way to cascade, increase their rankings and pay based on their years, qualifications, and special training (renewed certificates). Solar panels on all roofs to offset electrical costs.
Transparency: Required for all our police forces to restore the public confidence. A database to detect problem officers created and available to the public on-line with their grievances.
Trial in Absentia: Trials without the accused are prohibited unless there is at least one (1) defence counsel present. Crown and police no longer be allowed to pay or compensate in any manner for testimony or co-operation from witnesses. Examples: New vehicle, money, and/or not proceeding with a pending charge. Those working on behalf of the government will no longer have the ability to appeal Court decision in court as appeals reserved for people and those fighting the government.
Tricks: Dirty tricks by police to gain a confession by entrapment excluded from all trials forthwith (example: Mr. BIG operations and stings). Confessions by coercion, fear, intimidation or the appearance of a reduction in sentence or charge excluded from court proceedings.
Youth Criminal Justice Act: Sealed records are not accessible to CSC or parole board members after turning 18-years. Remove possession for criminal code with trafficking cannabis, tobacco, and alcohol. Put in 30 grams for any person to be allowed to carry. Fully decriminalize all cannabis and pardon all related charges. Ticket all equally and without discretion to eliminate racial profiling and ticketing only minorities. There will be a serious upgrade to this including the banning of solitary confinement to young offenders and a 72-hour maximum for adult prisoners. Youth prison spaces will be reserved for very serious violent crimes. All other will go into social programs in community facilities like group houses, drug and alcohol treatment centres, firefighting program, or military school boarding program if not a high school graduate.
Prison Reform by acknowledging there is a crisis.
Restorative Justice: Smart on Crime = Right on Crime
“It is said that no one truly knows a nation until one has been inside its jails, a nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but its lowest ones.” Nelson Mandela.
Public Safety would be greatly improved with the following increases to prisoners’ self-worth shown to you at a high-level of detail below was not necessary but for transparency, you must know the changes we will make.
Beavers can clean up the quagmire that is our judicial system. Current “Tough-on-crime” approach has pushed us above the one (1) trillion dollar National Debt. Past governments have more than doubled our National Debt with reckless deficit spending, mandatory minimums for convictions, forced labour camps with slave wages and vexatious denied cascading and parole. Putting more people in prison and keeping them past their parole dates, is not tough on crime, it is just a waste. Redirect the taxpayer savings from Correctional Services of Canada (CSC) to shorten wait-times with all our Health Care services. Parliament must set deadlines for trials to start (30-days upon charges by police or Crown), and codify the rules around disclosure to comply, and real judicial management (Cost: $2,602,274,955 reduced by 75% to $823,376,060 in 4-years).
Our government has listened and read the recommendations of countless jail inquests and will order CSC to implement the most recent recommendations and consider them binding within one (1) year. All Commissioner Directives (CD’s) and Standing Operating Procedures (SOP’s) will be amended forthwith. Prisons are considered an assisted living facility that don’t work.
Canadian Convention on Human Rights (CCHR): To comply with the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), to ensure positive rights for prisoners’ dignity and social rehabilitation. This will include CSC provided: in-cell computer system with monitored internet (mounted monitor with a camera, mouse, keyboard, and headphones with a microphone), a wall mounted television and cable cord, Tier 1+2+3+4 (Crave 1, Crave 2, FX, HBO) cable paid, full range fridge, commercial microwave, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, washer & dryer (including in all PFV’s), and a steam mop and cleaning supplies (toilet bowl cleaner, snake, etc.), and no-cost legal and educational photocopying and printing.
Decreasing food portions and quality, medical services, and exercise times has proven not to help in reintegration but foster bitterness, tension, and anger. The result are prisoners rioting and directing their anger towards prison staff and the facilities because their grievances were “white-washed” and effectively ignored. What else can a prisoner do when they are constantly denied and will be denied parole past their current eligibility dates? This is what bankrupted the USA Tough-on-crime approach and they tell us it did not work. Looking north, they ask us: What are you doing Canada? We plan to end the era of mass incarceration and prison industrial complex with starting by abolishing all mandatory minimums in the Criminal Code while supporting re-integration with education, actual trade skills, minimum wage for prisoners, automatic day and automatic Full Parole, pardons after five years on Full Parole, and Restorative Justice Programs (military and firefighting) for those treated law abiding and tax-paying citizens and get us value for taxpayer money. Fix the unequal distribution of criminals in communities and have the best respected criminal justice strategy for our future in the world. To alleviate boredom, more outdoor time arranged for prisoner recreational activities.
Canadians are paying 1.11% GDP for Criminal Justice. A Smart on Crime policy would slash this wasted spending by 75%. Canadians support restorative justice and sentencing that promotes a sense of responsibility in the prisoner and secures amends for the victims of crime while making prisoners accountable to the community upon their release from prison with actual trade certifications. At a time of wide-spread budgetary restraint, it seems prudent to use prison sparingly, and as a last resort it was intended to be. According to the Parliamentary Budget Officer (2018), it costs upwards of $343,810 to incarcerate one woman for a year and $223,687 to incarcerate a man. The community placement option (Halfway House) is priced at $85,653 per year and full parole costs as little as $39,084. Automatic Parole similar to Statutory Release would decrease prisoner population and allow us to shut antiquated prison sites across Canada thus saving valuable taxpayer funds.
The fact is… prisons are unsuccessful at preventing crime and at the same time, the crime rate is going down. Focusing on forgiveness and victim needs may more effectively heal emotional wounds. Dignity of all people including people who commit criminal activities and to get to the root cause of the problem. Until you are put into prison and experience prison life for yourself, all you can do is learn about prison through writings and pictures, often distorted by those representing prisons and their privatization. By adopting what is clearly working and successful in other countries to help in the successful re-integration of all our prisoners back into society, and fully explore to adopt prison settings and structures as in the United States/Ukraine (computers & internet), Finland (housing) and other countries where shorter sentences and the increased use of parole and suspended sentences including alternatives to prison like Forest Firefighting and Military construction with orders to make reparation in some practical form (fine) to the community and victim(s).
With a paradigm shift towards Smart Justice, we believe we can save billions of tax dollars to use towards community initiatives, transportation, education, Health Care, and other programs for all Canadians. Increase access for all Canadians for the Court Challengers Program of Canada: fight for equal rights (Cost: $20-million).
Working with Restorative Justice by mandating the following changes to help curb this barbaric trend and save billions of tax dollars (better spent reducing Health Care wait times with new hospital wings, new health equipment and with increased staff for speedier treatment). Standardized federal and provincial procedures including cell effects, ensuring a zero double-bunking mandate across Canada, and computers with monitored but unrestricted internet in all cells.
Correctional Services of Canada (CSC): New restorative mandate to be family oriented and not punitive. All prison sites mandated to have mother/father child living units and open visits and monthly socials. Lifting the administration restriction hurdles to allow prisoners to cultivate the land and allow prisoner’s to supplement their food with allowed trade of harvest for harvest (example: shrimp for potatoes or meat). Plus a more pro-active role in ensuring prisoners are being a part of the local community. This can be done through food drives, creative talent (making beds, artwork, and items for the homeless like emergency shelters, donations to the local food banks, and etc.). Transformative Change with Prison Reform. Canadians are paying an ever increasing and crippling amount of money to house criminals. When prisoners are released back into our communities, untrained, without timely psychological assessments, some former prisoners commit crimes on trips of revenge because of their treatment or lack of it while detained, others cannot handle being in the community they were isolated from and reoffend just to come back to prison for a roof over their head, heat, clean drinking water, and three meals a day. To keep prisoners from returning to prison, trade tickets and education is needed by opening prison farms at all sites for valuable life-skills training. Alternatives to prison sentencing with trades, education, firefighting, and military, is our restorative justice solution for those incarcerated.
Shared Services Canada: We have listened. Additional funding granted to ensure the infrastructure is there for all justice services and public safety services to share, add and access their required information data, especially at remote locations and frequent areas of immigration, immigrant and refugee crossings. Detainees and Prisoners require housing with a clear Zero Double Bunking Policy. Being denied toilets in each cell, locking up the showers on the ranges or officers viewing showering is cruel and unusual treatment and punishment. Cell effects amounts need to be increased and in-line with costs for current re-integration back into society with extra-funding provided within 30-days on a case-by-case bases and access to timely and adequate Health Care, dental, education, trades, religion, and allow programs and trade certificates at any time of their sentence to help in re-integration. Increased paid Private Family Visits and Private Quiet Time is required to help relax and de-stress prisoners from the constant verbal abuse and harassment by some staff (Cost: $1,601,607,647).
The following is an updated alphabetical list for real Canadian Prison Reform by on-going prisoner and staff surveys:
A&D Amnesty: Clothing items including shoes will be allowed to be added at a price cost of $1.00 and or deleted without review of the item if lost or stolen. Items lost during transfer, including those still in laundry will be credited with the full replacement cost and allowed purchased and sent in by a family or friend. The replacement cost will be the actual cost purchased used or new with tax.
A&D: Required to be staffed and open 24/7, and with the increase in prisoner effects, logically there will need to be an increase in officers, full video security, and tracking technology for theft and damage. Amounts for opened and used music discs $1.00 each unless the prisoner requests a higher amount up to $25.00 otherwise, it must be the price listed on the music disc case. All sites must follow CD-566-12 and allow all items previously used in cell at previous site. As prisoners must be transferred with all their belongings, the time-frame issue for issuing their effects upon transfer must be eliminated as they will be issued all their belongings upon arrival, up to $3,000. Multi-level sites will ensure prisoners are allowed all items they are entitled to have at their security level and not the increased security operational level of the site.
Abuse of Slave Labour: Review ongoing abuse of and working by Inmate Labour starting at CSC Pacific Institution. Ensure that all prisoners are paid minimum wage for every hour of work done.
Abuse: Increased sentences for child, animal, and elder abuse. Those are Not Criminally Responsible (NCR) treated and upon their re-integration back into society with supervision for life must run alongside parole and the services of CSC at their disposal.
Accelerated Parole Program: Re-introduce for all offences and an incentive Forest Ranger and Military Programs for any and all convictions as a Restorative Justice alternative to the costly prison sentences.
Accountability Act: To restore the public confidence with our police forces, border services, and Correctional Service Canada, we plan to fast-track our justice system to hold all prisoners and officers accountable for their actions, and their in-actions or non-actions. Focus on those persons injured, raped, or killed while in-care and/or in-custody. Those watching (even on camera) as witnesses considered and tried as accomplices if they did not intervene. Prisons must become a safer environment for all persons, visitors, and staff. Our plan includes elimination of USA contractors from Canadian Prisons and thus ending “Debtors Prisons” in Canada. Mandating any Community Request for a full Administrative Review is to done on any prisoners by an independent third party within 30-days and a copy of the report sent directly and forthwith to the Minster of Justice, the Criminal Conviction Review Committee, and Criminal Conviction Review Group.
Accountability and Motivation: Entered at least moderate with participation in programs assigned regardless of improvement. Dynamic Risk Factors must decrease at every review until all are low, unless a major charge and conviction indicates and warrants an increase. The offence or refusal to admit to the index offence must not be a reason to maintain nor to increase Dynamic Risk Factors.
Administrative Reviews: To help those that may have been railroaded or wrongfully incarcerated by our justice system. We believe Justices (Judges) in their last year prior to retiring must be mandated to conduct Administrative Reviews with bail on cases of prisoners claiming innocence or vexatious retaliation. Justices have the power to correct an injustice forthwith, and must be allowed to act while they are still empowered. To help the justices, create a National Conviction Review List to fast-track possible wrongful incarceration cases plaguing CSC, our courts, and to visit the backlog of pardonable cases.
Admission and Discharge (A&D): All sites required to have the prisoner present for opening all boxes or items is with them and prior to any engraving if required although security stickers are more than adequate for items with a serial number or alternate tracking number assigned to them.
Amnesty Day: CSC will ensure that there is an Amnesty Day for each person per year. Many prisoners when they leave prison, on parole/warrant expiry/statutory release, will leave their clothing, shoes, books, music, games or electronics behind including televisions. A&D will visit the ranges and call each person for their amnesty items, any items brought forward will be added onto their cell effects sheet (the same will occur at the hobby shop for hobby effects), so long as the item is not on an A&D Hot List (items reported stolen or belonging to a current detained prisoner). No charges will occur for the recovery of the A&D Hot List item. Recommend the month of May, A&D schedule Amnesty Day for each prisoner.
Amnesty Policy: We have a full amnesty policy on all previous cannabis (marijuana, pot) crimes and they are pardonable forthwith upon receipt of an Application to Pardon by the National Parole Board of Canada.
Animal Cruelty: Animal-protection Officer must be present for observance of fire-drills at all penitentiaries with the ability to video and audio record, interview, and retain videos of all drills and incidents of animal cruelty may occur. Criminal Code, Cruelty to Animals s.445.1(2)(c) a prisoner is liable to consecutive imprisonment for a term of five years and the institution or penitentiary, officer’s Union, and Warden are each liable to a fine of ten thousand dollars per occurrence.
Automatic Parole: We feel the Parole Board of Canada (PBC) contradicting Justices decisions by denying prisoner their initial Day Parole Date and Full Parole Date when their parole dates arrive is unfair, cruel and unusual treatment and further punishment. Admission of guilt is not a part of the criteria for release nor a reason to deny parole and cascading down to minimum. This practice must stop and fixed by an Automatic Parole system where a prisoner is given a chance at parole, if they break it, then the Parole Board of Canada would then review the parolee within 24-hours of any Temporary Detention with a full-hearing of three (3) people present, majority vote with the benefit of the doubt given to the prisoner for fairness. Note: If there was no criminal wrongdoing or convictions, then the prisoner must be released forthwith. Each CSC additional day past a Justice Parole Order for a sentenced prisoner is needless taxpayer cost and considered Cruel and Unusual Treatment.
Bad Apple Policy: Adopt the exact USA policy, if video of an officer is viewed by the public on air (YouTube, media) where clear abuse of a suspect(s) occurred by a person in authority, may include beating or kicking a handcuffed suspect, then that officer(s) is terminated forthwith (within 24-hours) and will face criminal charges in our court system. Arresting officer(s) and managers (Wardens, Deputy Wardens, those involuntary transfer managers) must be automatically liable and charged with murder in all deaths under their care and including all officers involved with immediate charges may have occurred within 24-hours of an incident resulting in a prisoners death or serious injury. A judge and/or jury must be the only people to decide if the in-care-death was first degree, second degree, manslaughter, or to actually exonerate (not-at-fault) any CSC officer charged and/or involved as an accomplice after the fact by any attempt to cover-up, delete or supress evidence. This includes but not limited to the removal of mattresses and televisions as a punitive measure will cease, this must also include turning-off the power or cable connection in a cell so televisions and stereos cannot work. All cell power outages recorded with times, durations, and the names of officers on duty as all sites have back-up generators.
Bail with Justice of the Peace (JP): Powers enforced and independent of the Crown or Defence. The JP must set conditions after consultation with the defendant (if any) on all bail, not the prosecutor, nor defendant. All conditions must be reasonable, lawful, consistent, and appropriate. Those few denied bail must be entitled to monthly utilities-rent-mortgage payments by Crown and a guaranteed forty (40) hour minimum wage payment at $20.00-an-hour while detained in pre-trial custody for the duration under appearance and rules of fairness and they be presumed innocent until conviction. This must include unrestricted and unlimited 24/7 internet and e-mail with a provided computer or laptop for their cells, laser printing, scanning and video conference capabilities. This must push Crown to getting speedier trials and/or swifter resolutions in all cases. We want a system that is true to presumed innocent until proven guilty and the only way is to abolish pre-trial custody as it is a situation of guilty until proven innocent.
All pre-trial centres turned into provincial/territorial maximums as that is how they truly operate. Pre-trial reserved for only serious accusations of murder, attempted murder, and sexual assault and those that pose an imminent flight risk with substantial Crown proof, not theories or because of the alleged charge. Those on pre-trial will be granted and grandfathered 3.75 days credit if placed in solitary confinement (after 8-hours) including all those sentenced with a Life tag. The effects on their psychological and physical health suffered from anxiety, hopelessness, insomnia, auditory hallucinations, anti-social feelings, and lack of “ascertainable standards” is acknowledged and is rectified by our governments’ action.
Bail: All persons must be entitled to Bail which could include house arrest and GPS monitoring (costs paid initially by Crown and remitted to the CRA). Everyone must be given the ability to seek out legal representation, arrange their personal possessions, and to continue working pending their trial. Mandating bail regardless of the crime would release Provincial and Federal funds can then be better used for rehabilitation of those actually sentenced. Bail granted must be facilitated by the courts forthwith with all paperwork done and signed by a Justice of the Peace within 15-minutes. Everyone deserves the right to be presumed innocent, not to be handcuffed within a courthouse, which includes being free in society to prepare an adequate and unhindered defence, retain counsel(s) and professionals with in-person visits, and outsource private investigators, laboratories, and thus to use the tools, services, and materials available in the community, all to counter the allegations against themselves. A prisoner is a prisoner but only when one is sentenced, at that time all prisoners must fall forthwith under Federal Jurisdiction.
Bait Program: Many personal effects “mysteriously” go missing or are damaged in transit by Sheriffs and Officers from Correctional Service Canada, Admission & Discharge, and stores. To reduce the costs to Crown on payments to prisoners for lost cell and stored effects and help track down these “missing” items, a plan initiated to locate when and where they are damaged by accelerometer tracking and GPS recording and reduce taxpayer end costs. Low-jack Bait Program operated by the RCMP during the transportation of select prisoner effects. Some prisoners prior to being admitted to jail could have selected items tagged with low-jack and accelerometers (television, watch, stereo) to constantly identify their locations, force of handling inside and outside the prison sites, and especially during transfers (Sheriffs seen smashing prisoner effects on their truck bumpers when off camera), and identify misuse of pepper spray is being used off-site by CSC officers. When bait items leave a site, GPS will notify the RCMP-GRC Bait Task Force who are able to monitor and track the item(s) to the destinations with an ongoing Bait Search & Arrest Warrant, are empowered to seize and immediately arrest the person(s) involved in theft, deliberate destruction or tampering with any bait items not theirs. When more than one officer is involved, both are arrested, booked and charged. The employee(s) in question would be notified and those responsible criminally charged and detained at the nearest RCMP-GRC detachment, suspended without pay until the case is heard before a judge with jurisdiction, forthwith. If convicted, not re-employable by CSC. Minor transgressions will not be dismissed or ignored. Theft is very serious and will hold its leadership and members to the highest standards whether it’s a fan, clothing, saws, engine parts, rounds of ammunition, kitchen sets, PFV equipment, IWC items, artwork, or even prisoner cell effects, will be grounds for termination.
Beds: Single bunk policy for all rooms for those incarcerated and in the community on parole. Increase the number of beds for women released with addictions and or substance abuse for all provinces and territories and include co-educational facilities and private home placement facilities. To combat bed bugs or black mould issues, 1-new memory foam mattresses, 2-pillows, 4-sheets, 1-air cleaner, and 1-steam mop will be allowed as prisoner purchases and additional cell effects.
Body Cameras: All CSC Officers, Parole Board members, Institutional Parole Officer (IPO), Social Program Officer (SPO), Parole Officer (PO), and CSC Managers mandated for transparency to wear video stabilization body cameras with audio and video during their entire shift and with prisoner contact. These interactions automatically uploaded unaltered (technologies to improve the retention capacity and recording live-streaming) to a public & CSC secure site with an Automatic Redaction Program (CSC non-prisoner washrooms). All accessed by Institutional Security Officer’s (ISO), lawyers, Crown and justices for all alleged incidents among prisoners, volunteers and CSC staff.
Bonuses: Moratorium on Bonus Programs for saving money by management as it has been shown to be negative in the health and welfare of the prison population. Prison programs and trades training have been eliminated or suspended to save money by management thus CSC is not providing the skills, tools, or education for prisoners to properly reintegrate back into society. Implementing a new Bonus Program includes all CSC staff and prisoners.
Business Initiative for Prisoners: College & University students assisting prisoners starting a new business while detained by creating business plans, setting up accounts, business licences, insurance inquiries, pre-approval for loans upon release, logo creation, business name & tax numbers, and website creation (www.GoDaddy.ca).
Canteen Independent Audits: Forthwith by independent chartered accountants of all Inmate Canteens starting at least 12-months prior to the date of transition to ensure CSC has allowed new tax numbers, registration for all these canteens, ensure 10% markup for IWC (Inmate Wellness Committee) goes to IWC, and determined all taxes collected has actually gone to Revenue Canada and credited to the IWC Canteen and not CSC.
Canteen: Increase to two-hundred (200) different items as some are similar items are counted as one item but are different flavours (chips, pop, chocolate bars, soap, shampoo) and allow prisoners purchases of medical cannabis, cigarettes, lighters, e-cigarettes, and variety of alternative smoking elimination products with dedicated outdoor areas for day-time and evening use. “Canteen like” items allowed for purchase at all sites and from multiple vendors. And change policies to have provided refrigerated and/or frozen canteen items at all sites. Full-sized Refrigerators with freezers and Microwaves must be provided and paid by CSC for all living ranges and an ice-machine per unit.
Canteen Fundraisers: Rotation and variety of name brand added cell items. Example: Prisoner Justice Day T-shirts.
Cell Effects (CD 566-12): Legislate yearly with increased time (needs time for purchase of stamp and envelope and to get a CD 566-12 list to be mailed to family/friends and items purchased and sent in), amounts, items, and procedures for video opening, searching, costing and itemized alphabetical lists with deleted changes, errors or omissions to the prisoner’s benefit while present. This list must be available on-line for all families to view and follow, regardless of the site the prisoner is at and items allowed. All Minimum & Medium items will be allowed purchase and stored in A&D regardless of the prisoners classification at all sites. Allow Yoga clothes (pants and tops), mat, and lift all restricted medical devices for use inside prisons by prisoners. Example: metal knee/leg braces, electric wheelchairs.
Cell Effects: Changing 30-day Window to First Window automatically renewed every year after receiving it and it be opened and logged as Cell effects -Hobby effects -Indigenous effects -Educational effects -Religious effects -Medical effects, in the presence of the prisoner with the prisoners requested values entered per item (excluding exempt school, religious, legal, and medical effects). It would be ideal to have separate sheets for each: Cell, Medical, Educational, Hobbies, Religious, and Indigenous effects issued by those professionals at their location.
First Window allowed yearly for all prisoners for exchanges on items or for family members to send any CD-566-12 approved items in to the person. Especially when changes in security and allowed items are increased by SRS (Security Reclassification Scale). Included, having unlimited Spiritual and Educational effects, and $3,000 Hobby Effects. Increased personal cell effects from $1,500.00 to $3,000.00 with stored effects raised to $3,000.00 also for a total of $6,000.00 this must bring the values in-line with today’s costs of living and replacement values.
Replacement Window: Actual replacement value with shipping & tax for the same item mandated for CSC and allowed to be sent in by a family member and issued forthwith. CSC must purchase the item through their supplier and immediately replace it through a local community supplier.
Hobby Effects: Reinstate to allow and include those on Temporary Detention (TD) the same First Window and Hobby Effects upon their initial return to prison with allowed to ITF items, and in fact, all prisoners entitled to a 24” LCD television with cable and remote in their cell and it be initially provided by CSC forthwith.
Cell Effects Transferred: All items from another site are to arrive with the prisoner and be opened in-front of the prisoner and on the same day (within 4-hours of arrival) entered into the CSC database for all cell and stored effects with the prisoner replacement price taking priority over the initial and not necessarily actual internet price due to depreciation, family purchasing items on sale, or for items bought below market value. Damaged cell electronics discovered must be replaced immediately by A&D-CSC (within 24-hours by ISS & Warden’s Financial Approval), paid and issued by ISS forthwith.
Cell Phone Use: Use of smart phones in private and personal medical treatment rooms, operating rooms o for surgical procedures in a hospital or clinic is analogous to hidden cameras in a washroom. CSC officers will be terminated for capturing or sharing of images of prisoners without their written consent. Written consent is not accepted on any Medical Escorts or ETA’s as it is likely only given under duress.
Cell Toilets & Showers *Public Inquiry: Investigation and charges of negligence for all those in Management at all sites have received money (for toilets) or prisoner improvement funds to be put in but sites have failed to put them because they wasted those funds on unnecessary cost-analysis being done at taxpayer expenses and their staff overtime paychecks or bonuses and the increased restrictions on showering and denied hygiene. Decommission all prisons that do not comply to have clean running drinking water and in-cell toilets in every cell or arrange to have this put into every cell within one year. Turn into Low-Income Housing (Cost: $5-million).
Cell Transfers: Modify Commissioner Directive (CD) to stop the abuse of forced movements as punitive punishment measures by some officers by making inmates pack and move from cell-to-cell at the same site or by telling them they are being involuntarily transferred (without written documentation), they go to A&D with their things, then they are not transferred off-site but are returned to their unit but to a different cell as punishment. Prisoner’s choice of cell location per unit or as previously assigned.
Children: Any child of a parent detained will be placed forthwith and first with the nearest relative or a family member willing to assume responsibility of the child while the parent is detained and must be allowed video and regular visits covered by Crown, with contact to the family member detained unless the detention involves a sexual crime.
Clothing and Items: Provided by CSC to prisoners “Institutional Clothing” including those to fulfill individual medical needs (example: knee braces, high-top shoes) regardless if they are re-classed as non-essential. Our new policy is if a doctor recommends an item for a prisoner, at that time the item becomes essential and must be ordered and issued forthwith.
Clothing Institutional: Must only be required to be worn for work, programs, A&D, School, Library, appointments to Health Care, and Canteen. When prisoners are back at their unit and ranges, they will not be required to wear Institutional Clothing unless they are working. Any personal jeans or shoes worn will be allowed classified as institutional clothing.
Co-educational: All prisons across Canada have integrated co-educational policy for staffing, including all women, men and non-binary people working at all prison sites. This further expanded to all provincial and federal prisons and for those prisoners cascading down throughout the system.
Co-habitation Pen-Placement Rules: All prisoners must arrive into the federal system (CSC) and pen placed and housed accordingly with the default being Minimum. This is more cost effective. Those fighting and getting “street-charged” or serious charges while detained in pre-trial and while sentenced will see an increase to their security. Those complying with rules and charge conviction free since last review will automatically be sent or remain at a lower security. Cancel and eliminate the discriminatory practice of separating prisoners based on birth gender. Working and living among both sexes is the norm in society and must be put into practice at most sites.
We believe Maximum inmates must be housed in either all male or all female prisons but, when they are assessed and allowed to cascade to either a multi-level, medium or minimum institution, they must be habituated by both male, female, and transgender prisoners, so a safe and more realistic re-integration back into society atmosphere is created. Improved cleanliness and personal grooming of all prisoners is expected to increase by going co-educational which is a clear benefit for all staff who would like to be employed in a safe, clean and respectful place of employment.
Combat Corruption: Setting the bar high, we plan to dedicate a multi-level prison in Canada for those in authority abuse their authority: MP, MLA/MNA, CSC, police, and judges at Pacific Institution. Plus all MP and MLA’s must be required to serve 30-days in a pre-trial provincial detention centre and 90-days federal time prior to office to truly understand incarceration.
Community Assessments: These done within fifteen (15) days of a written request by a prisoner and will be entered into the OMS file as community support with initial date, name, address, phone number of community contact, and this information accessed and shared with Visits and Correspondence and with Finance as: “Verifiable legitimate relationship(s) exits.” Any officer that refuses to file Community Assessments on prisoner’s file considered negligent of their duty and reprimanded may include termination. Family and community support for a prisoner is important and necessary for transfer decisions and the cruel and unusual practice of not placing this positive file information in OMS must stop immediately. All lists with named family including all brothers and sisters automatically approved to send in money to the prisoner.
Computers: CSC must provide a laptop computer, 2 flash drives, for every prisoner in every cell, and printer per range. Prisoners allowed to purchase-to-own this system. Provide one system per range (living accommodation wing in a Unit) at minimum. One Unit (prison living accommodation building) computer system (computer, keyboard, mouse, monitor, black laser printer) for every twenty-four (24) prisoners and a computer system per range is accessible during range restrict (when prisoners are locked-up behind barriers on their range). Prisoners when released must have a handle on current technology for education, recreation, and business ventures. Education is the key to a successful re-integration tool back into society; learning French or English as a second language is beneficial to reintegration back into the workforce and society. To comply with the United Nations Human Rights Council resolution passed on Friday July 1, 2016 that “condemns unequivocally measures to intentionally prevent or disrupt access to or dissemination of information online.” and to comply with Canadian Radio-television and Tele-communications Commission declaration that all residents are entitled to access voice and broadband Internet services on fixed and mobile wireless networks. Ruling December 21, 2016, that high-speed Internet is a basic service entitlement like a home phone and that 100% of Canadians are entitled to internet services and to be able to offer mobile services for people with disabilities within six months. This can be done by allowing prisoners the opportunity to purchase and use an in-cell computer system with monitored unrestricted internet access. E-mail used in the United States by prisoners has proven to alleviate and drastically lower contraband from entering during communication by mail. All CSC files given to prisoners by secure USB flash drive with timely e-mailed updates. Giving prisoners free e-Mail, internet, and movies to download (unlimited movies or others), and eternal storage up as the cloud, then purely as a result of greed, prisoners pure curiosity, greed for existence and knowledge, they will e-mail you everything they’d ever intended to keep hidden and secret from even themselves. And they will do this inadvertently and must not even realize their betrayal while the police and Crown could use their uploaded data to solve cold-case crimes. If a prisoner wishes to retain their laptop, they can retain the item if it is paid in full. Otherwise, all data transferred to an external drive and given to the prisoner upon release free of charge. The laptop computer must then be zeroed and cleared of all information and then be able to be re-issued to another at a discount purchase rate or a new one issued if the prisoner so wishes to purchase and keep. Improve the Commissioner Directives to allow USB connections and prisoners the use of USB sticks and portable hard drives will alleviate the fire hazard mass of file papers in their cells. Mandating a scanner and paper shredder is available at each Inmate Welfare Committee (IWC) office for prisoners to be able to copy their own personal files and store on their own portable drives. Ensure 24” LCD television and computers are available on each and every cell and range that is locked down includes a black laser printer with ink supplied by CSC with the paper to be purchased by the prisoner and supplied by CSC. We will ensure that CSC policy at all sites has the mandate to have 4-paid positions (Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer) for IWC, the Lifer’s and Long Term Offenders Group, and the Aboriginal/Indigenous Wellness Committee (AWC/IWC). Initial purchase for 25,000 pre-approved laptop units with two flash drives each, to accommodate all prisoners at all sites in Canada. Computer system with internet is mandated to be provided by CSC in each Private Family Visiting (PFV) unit with word, excel, power point, and paint made available on all computers (Cost: $5-million).
Citizen Advisory Committee: Paid positions at par with CSC pay wages with the single criteria that no members hired have ever worked for CSC as an officer, manager, CORCAN or contractor.
CORCAN (work and pay program for prisoners): Reinstate all CORCAN Incentives Program, support Mother-Child Units in all correctional facilities across Canada plus, Father-Child Units, and Pet Programs (dogs, fish, cats, hamsters, birds, etc.) with local societies. The programs requested and geared for giving actual trade tickets and certification to prisoners along with a fair wage for work done by prisoners to assist in their reintegration back into society.
Correctional Investigator: No longer a ‘white-wash’ organization as it must have the additional power to enact and enforce corrective changes by a justice forthwith onto CSC, Commissioner Directive (CD), Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), and not just recommend corrective changes that may or may not be adopted by CSC; and submit proposed Legislation changes directly to the Prime Minister Office (PMO) to modify the Corrections and Conditional Release Act (CCRA) and the Corrections and Conditional Release Regulations (CCRR).
Correctional Investigator’s Office: Open 7-days a week 365.25 days-a-year, including all holidays to address issues are raised during weekends and public holidays to combat punitive treatments occurring during these events. Example: Institutional lock-down and group punishment by programs cancelled, Cell restrict, Range restrict, and Unit restrict during an off-site death of CSC staff member. Increased budget from $4-million to $40-million and the under-staffed staff must increase from 36 full-time to 360 full-time. Recommendations included in the Annual Reports of the office of the Correctional Investigator to be implemented by CSC from 2003 to present. No exceptions or debate. When an Independent Review is requested on a grievance, it is required to be done by the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC).
Correctional Service Canada (CSC): Supply all prisoners appropriate weather clothing (summer: daytime shorts and t-shirts; winter: hooded jackets, jeans, thermals), with daytime and evening main yard access. CSC provides: 2 in-cell thermal blankets, a fan, a desk lamp, 4-slice toaster, a kettle or coffee maker so each prisoner has the ability to heat and make their own food, and at least one metal storage locker is issued and engraved with their name on it (a second locker may be purchased by the prisoner), television, and computer system. Issued items go with the prisoner upon release as part of their assisted rehabilitation. Each unit range must have CSC paid and supplied working: coffee maker, kettle, industrial microwave, industrial washer & dryer, large fridge, freezer, and an ice machine. CSC must be mandated to facilitate prisoner re-integration by covering the costs of transportation (air and taxis) and local accommodation of family member(s) when an prisoner is Involuntarily Transferred out of their province or territory of their index offence and the family member(s) wishes to in-person visit (once per month) the prisoner. This cost burden by CSC must reduce and we hope eliminate the appearance of retaliation by CSC to prisoners by an involuntary transfer out of province. Prisoners voluntarily transferring to a new province or territory must not be allowed into this program unless the voluntary transfer was to move closer to family because of a previous involuntary transfer or relocation to their release destination and family.
Corrections and Conditional Release Act (CCRA): “Whereby the CCRA shall not be regarded as the servant or agent of the Crown or as enjoying any status, immunity or privilege of the Crown.” The Commission would have the power to re-open any previously determined case for police investigation and send those applications to the Court of Appeal, with recommendations to either acquit, exonerate, or to order a retrial, placing the onus on the judges to find reasons to disagree. Review Act to amend and update to comply with this platform.
Corrections and Conditional Release Regulations (CCRR): Review Act to amend and update to comply with this platform.
Correspondence: Items and pages printed from the internet and mailed to prisoners allowed forthwith and must not be returned to the sender due to ‘copyright infringement’. Item may be printed and burned onto a DVD or CD-ROM and mailed in from a person on the prisoners approved phone list or submitted contact list.
Court for minor and serious charges, “Kangaroo Court”: Review, revamp internal court proceedings, full disclosure mandated to include video surveillance be provided prior to court and court playback. Courts must have full transparency by proceedings viewed on-line by the public. Charges must result in reasonable fines in according to the actual earnings of prisoners (pay-per-day) and vise-versa if the charge was unlawful/unfair and overturned. Monetary compensation paid from the officer(s) charging for those that were suspended from employment in in according to the officer’s pay. All officers named required to be present or else the charge must be waived and ruled against them by default.
Court Reform: Registrars must start to visit all prison sites on a weekly basis to arrange with sentence management for filing of court documents for prisoners, issue a court file number, and court date to be set when requested.
Crown Responsible for all Health Care Costs: Initially, prisoners must be allowed any medical plans and treatment is available in the community. This includes but not limited to new tattoos, tattoo removal, hair transplants, all dental, optician (laser surgeries) and optics with name brand designer frames. All medical services must therefore be allowed forthwith at any time of the sentence including if any of the certificate expires prior to parole dates attained. Funding and allocation by the Warden mandated within 15-days of application. Funds paid back at 10% mark-up and interest free. This will be a self-sustaining Reintegration and Accountability Program. When Crown funds increase over the original $780-million due to payback, the amount over returned to the government budget as revenue surplus at the end of the year (Initial Cost: $780-million).
Crown Responsible for Medical: Crown must finance all programs and services including: dental procedures, driving tests and licence renewals, eye surgery laser corrections, hair transplants, hearing aids, education, trades, and any certifications. Allow any prisoner to purchase medical plans are available in the community and use them while incarcerated.
CSC Officers: Mandated upon starting, to serve two (2) years at a dedicated maximum site, then at a medium site or multi-level or security sites of their choosing for up to ten (10) years, to eliminate stress and burn-out and properly train officers with the worst cases. Putting officers in a minimum setting at the start of their careers, cannot properly train them for when a serious incident occurs and what to do. Many things can only be learned from and in a maximum setting environment.
Dangerous Offenders: All granted Day Parole after 10-years of receiving this designation and Full Parole three years after Day Parole. Dangerous Offender tag must remain for 10-years while on parole until automatically pardoned and without new convicted offences. Without a lawyer representing an accused, this designation retroactively rescinded. All designations must be reviewed. Absence of Evidence not valid grounds for Dangerous Offender designation. New evidence must be used.
Death: Deaths of inmates dying on route or at a hospital are considered and counted as dying on-site. Prisoner Justice Day, August 10th, recognized as a paid day off work for all prisoners at all sites without consequences. RCMP must conduct a thorough investigation and a copy of the report postmarked and sent directly to the next of kin, forthwith on the same day as it is disclosed to CSC. Prisoners able to purchase and customize individual tombstones at any time of their sentence. The Chaplain must make arrangements with the SPO and hobby officers for this service.
Decommissioned Prisons: To address the homelessness needs of the local community, we plan to turn decommissioned sites into federal housing for the community and surrounding area. The fences taken down and basic services provided for single and families that arrive in need. Services will include: showers, laundry, dedicated room(s) for their family members with one bed each with sheets, blankets, towels and a basic hygiene kit. Locks keyed for individual palm reading and these sites must all be drug and smoke free. Nursing, local community services, local public transportation arranged and available for the new residents and intake.
Deputy Commissioner: Sweat Lodge ceremonies within all institutions and community correctional halfway house settings will be allowed as mixed (male and female). Parolee’s all allowed a cellular telephone, computers, unrestricted internet (unless restricted by court order), and space for a bicycle to be securely stored inside their house/room, and a vehicle with parking and storage provided at the expense of the Parole Board of Canada.
Proposed changes to modify the Criminal Code of Canada, Forensic DNA Analysis:
Section 487.05(4) At any time, a provincial court judge has the jurisdiction to allow new factual innocence evidence by any person that has been cleared of the crime by DNA analysis, before, during or after their trial and/or appeal, and
re-open a decided case to consider this new evidence;
that only new exculpatory evidence be considered by judge alone; and
a full administrative review be conducted on the case forthwith by Crown.
Section 487.05(5) If a provincial court judge agrees and rules that the person has been scientifically excluded, then the Crown’s case is over, and
the person is compensated forthwith at a fixed standard rate of $5,000.00 per day in detention;
the person released forthwith with all their possessions or a check for their actual true replacement value;
a public apology issued within 24-hours on CBC by the CSC site Warden, the Crown Prosecutor, and the Chief of Police(s) where the original crime and trial occurred forthwith; and
a full discharge issued forthwith for this offence;
Any Crown prosecutor should have the power to re-open any previously decided case when a complaint with the provincial/territorial law society is filed against a Crown prosecutor and presented with factual DNA exclusion evidence to overturn any conviction especially when a prosecutor makes mistakes with evidence as people should not be prosecuted or remain prosecuted.
Section 487.05(6) At any time, if there is unknown DNA used during a trial, then all persons who attended the scene will be ordered DNA tested by the police forthwith for scientific exclusion and the results given to the Crown and Defence at the same time. This will include but is not limited to the police, paramedics, fire people, medical staff, and witnesses logged at the scene, named at trial, or any person handling the evidence that may include lab technicians.
Disclosure: Lack of disclosure by Crown, RCMP-GRC, police or border services must result in charges dropped as this creates an appearance of unfairness for the plaintiff. Proactive disclosure with timely access to information without redactions for those convicted or prisoners requesting their entire file disclosure by all agencies. All dropped charges will result in a monetary compensation ($5,000 each charge paid within 30-days of being dropped) as if it was a wrongful conviction and it must be scrubbed from the file and not referenced again.
DNA Protection: Policy to protect your DNA from being sold, used, and duplicated. A requirement that testing labs make it very clear and accommodate forthwith any held DNA sample if requested, can be fully destroyed and all the Data permanently deleted if requested after DNA testing in all Canadian Laboratories. This will eliminate use by Insurance and Law Enforcement to misuse the collected data through other parties.
Electronic Monitoring: Ankle bracelets and other surveillance devices must allow probation and parole officers to restrict the movement of offenders who live in their own homes or in supervised accommodations (halfway houses). When no halfway house approves a prisoner in their home community or the community the prisoner wishes to be released into, then the prisoner allowed to reside at their family or their own home or rental accommodation as an alternative during parole. When granted Day Parole without a residence. Prisoners must be allowed forthwith a daily volunteer for Escorted Temporary Absences (ETA) with travel time, funds and allowed access to a bank for certified or blank checks for rental deposits from and to the prison they reside at to find and pay for rental accommodation in the community they must reside in and check in with the local parole office. If no volunteer is available within 48-hours of parole, then the parole board must have a member arrange to accompany the parolee on parole by hour 49.
Eligibility replaced with Automatic before Parole in all prisoner sentencing dates: In-line with Statutory Release Dates in place for prisoners are on-track to be law-abiding citizens in the community. Everyone deserves a second chance in the community when their ordered time has been served and reaffirm the actual Sentencing and Parole Dates imposed by court Justices and Jury members. This alone will save billions of tax dollars redirected to Health Care and Education.
Employment & Pay: Change the CCRR #105 addition “C. Hourly paid federal $20.00 minimum wage pay. D. Those without employment must receive 1-hour minimum wage pay per day including weekends.” All prisoner employees paid hourly according to the Minimum Wage Act. Example: Cart Pushers or Cleaners working Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner must get 3-hours pay each day and a day off each week, paid holidays. All prisoners must receive August 10th as a paid day off. All pay previously deducted at 30% Room & Board will be redirected at 80% to the prisoners Community Forced Savings Account. Direct the Treasury Board to set the base amount of pay at $20.00 per hour for prisoners. Ensure Canada Labour Code applies to all prisoners at all sites. Review of Section 78 CCRA: Employ/Employer relationship exists in Section 78 and prisoners have employee status. CSC will ensure that all prisoners are all given the opportunity to work and participate in programs for 175-hours minimum per month. If a staff member is not available for supervise work, the pay dispersed will be for the regular full-day of work (Cost: $780-million).
Empowering Communities: Finding new ways to fix, mend, re-educate failures, rehabilitate criminals with life skills training for a better re-integration back into society but, we also understand for some people, prison is the only effective solution. Increase funding for programs not previously available inside prison facilities and available to all like First Aid Level-3, Fire Suppression Certification, Firefighting certification Level-1 & Level-2, and Culinary Arts Red Seal Level-1 and Chef du cuisine Level-2.
Ending Immigration Detention: Excluding a reasonable same day processing time and removal orders with an in-person appeal process. Having the appeals open and online to the public and on-line intervention by any local community willing to sponsor a family or person in need of help. Showing true Canadian compassion with a second-chance at life in Canada.
Ending Segregation: Segregated (solitary confinement or isolation) used as a last resort and the prisoner must be released from segregation after five (5) days [120 hours] maximum and sixty (60) days [1,440 hours] per year maximum including weekends and holidays will count as double the hourly time. Segregation must not be used on a prisoner has documented mental illness. Solitary confinement will be prohibited for all youths. Solitary confinement must have their main lights turned off for eight hours of night sleeping 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Graduated planned release and services. Allowing 6-hours outdoor daytime recreation between 6:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m., for those held in isolation plus daily visitor visits, sink & toilet, free home/legal telephone access, 24/7 television, mattress, pillow and 2-blankets, shower, a daily stamp for mail correspondence, reading and writing materials, legal counsel access, any visits not facilitated through the food slot, and providing the necessities of life. Those not housed in segregation must be entitled to outdoor recreation of at least: 2-hours in the morning, 3-hours in the afternoon and 3-hours in the evening and recreational board games and televisions, and all game systems are available for purchase and use in all cells. Segregation Review: 12-hours after segregation and then every day by a reviewer that includes an interview with the prisoner by a person with authority to release a prisoner assigned by the Correctional Investigator. The institutional head must review the segregation detention every 12-hours, in-person. Oversight by judicial in-court appearance (or video) before the first 24-hour mark (including holidays and weekends) for proper appeal process. Permission from a Superior Court to keep any individual in a Structured Intervention Unit beyond 24-hours or an accumulated 24-hours within 30-days.
Evolve Our Prison Farms (EOPF): An alternative to the old prison farm model. Innovative plant based agriculture (mixed crops, vegetables, fruit and nut tree plantations, greenhouses, and permaculture) and farmed animal sanctuary (permanent, non-exploitive care) for any animals brought onto the farms. This has the benefits (and more) of the old operations, without the drawbacks and conflicts of animal agriculture. Environmental justice, animal justice, prisoner justice. Benefits: rehabilitation and reintegration; ecological sustainability; secure and healthy food; caring and connected communities; and fiscal responsibility. www.evolveourprisonfarms.ca Work will be for the benefit of Canadian prisoners first. A no-kill sanctuary model of animal care, where rescued and injured animals are cared for by prisoners. Cows or rescued animals in a sanctuary model of animal-assisted therapy contributing natural fertilizers to fields producing fresh organic food for prisoners.
Fair Sentencing Act: Defelonize possession offenses of hard drugs and non-violent property crimes. Transforming these petty crimes into misdemeanours with a three times payment to Crown (split 50-50 with the victims) and community service must entail mandatory health treatment, Military Service or Forest Ranger service. A judge should be allowed to impose a lower sentence or an alternative than recommended, but cannot increase them on what Crown initially requests at the start of the trial (Cost: $1-million).
False Accusations: Considered a more serious crime than mischief with charges may include termination of employment. Deliberate false accusations must have and hold the exact same sentence for the accuser as if they had committed the accused crime. Repeating proven false accusations and keeping them on file must have monetary fines paid to the victim and Crown must be encouraged to charge those supporting and making false accusations. Police report incidents must never be used nor referred to in files for assessment unless actual convictions because most are proven false accusations and are thrown out by Crown or by the courts after a full police investigation. CPIC incidents will no longer be shared with CSC.
Finance: Streamline finance by combining prisoner Savings account with their Current account. All funds mailed to a prisoner allowed if the mailer has applied for visiting or their name is on the prisoner’s phone card list or a Community Assessment has been requested by the prisoner, regardless if the Community Assessment has been completed. Money must be allowed in prisons and must no longer be considered a contraband item. Pre-paid Credit cards must also be allowed for in-cell internet purchases, ITFs and use by prisoners. Creating a single finance account must cut down on paperwork and illogical transfer of funds requests that’s bogged down integrated finance departments. Prisoners using bank cards to transfer their funds from savings to canteen, to their phone, or to send money out and also receive it must save paper and the environment by ability to view all their e-transactions. Purchases must be paid directly to the supplier upon ordering. Items ordered be contracted to be the exact or for the same price and size, of the closest colour, similar but higher quality and value product than ordered at. Adding www.Amazon.ca and www.eBay.ca to the national list of approved suppliers and sellers that finance orders are paid immediately upon freezing the prisoner funds (hold). Finance Request for Bank Account: IPO (Institutional Parole Officer) arranged to allow all prisoners the opportunity to open a community bank account of their choice within 15-day of request to open a bank account in their community.

This stepping-stone initiative is for those trying to learn culture and their native spirituality with the added benefit of having funds available for their apartments, furniture, vehicles, family obligations, etc. so that a prisoner has substantial funds, in the thousands, prior to release and prior to parole being granted. This could be offered for male offenders and female offenders in a co-habitation transitional living environment.
Institutional Parole Officer (IPO): Mandated to ensure each prisoner in their care has all the critical documentation current for their immediate release including all Lifer’s and Long Term Offenders: Social Insurance Number, Birth Certificate, Health Card, Vocations Certificates (copies of originals), active savings Bank Account of the prisoner’s choice, updated Résumé, Driver’s Licence (if requested, updated and current), Government Picture ID, and Status Card (if requested).

Alleged and police incidents that did not result in an actual conviction may no longer be put into a prisoners file and all references to any past alleged incidents must be removed. All alleged incidents will forthwith be mandated removed and not discussed about including at a transfer or parole hearing with the benefit of the doubt and likely innocence due to the fact the police and Crown would have fully investigated the incidents in question and concluded they did not happen and therefore no charges nor convictions would have occurred.
Interns Employment Opportunities: Local businesses encouraged with federal monetarily compensation at 30% wages to hire prisoners on an intern 120-day basis, Jobs of the Future. CSC will encourage local businesses to participate at bi-yearly Information Fairs on-site.
Ion mobility spectrometry devices “ION scanners”: Testing false positives cannot be the sole cause nor reason to suspend or deny prisoner visits, they must coincide with physical search resulting in contraband and actual RCMP charges. Upgrading to Full Body Scanners to replace all ION scanners at all prison sites. Cigarettes and cannabis will no longer be considered a contraband at all sites.
ISO (Institutional Security Officer): When a security video (CCRT) is requested of an incident is recorded in a prisoner’s file, the related video will be supplied and provided to the prisoner within 24-hours of receiving a VERBAL or Inmate Request.

Canteen items available and purchased at any other site, must be allowed at all sites. Otherwise, a fine must be leveled against the offending prison site and awarded to the IWC and the affected prisoners.
Jailhouse Informants: All prohibited from testifying and classified as “unsavoury witnesses.” Crown & CSC will no longer be able to compensate Jailhouse Informant as this has created far more problems than they have solved by informants deliberately lying in court and to the police to help Crown with a false conviction in the hopes to cascade to a less restrictive institution, get parole, reduce or eliminate their sentence or pending charges with the police.
Job Fair: Employers visit prisons to pre-hire potential candidates for employment upon parole. Create an on-line résumé program for prisoners to update and showcase their skills and hobbies (www.Monster.ca).

Justices: Assign one per prison site, to address all “Charges” issued by officers and determine if they are serious or minor and to reprimand those issuing unnecessary charges with substantial monetary fines deducted from their paycheck directed to the prisoner. All fines from prisoners will be collected and distributed equally to volunteer groups that visit and participate in prisoner rehabilitation. Assign a Justice for 10-year terms as the Correctional Investigator to enforce corrective changes within CSC. Justices must also address all issues relating to CSC bullying and harassment including SRS and denied transfers.
Justices: Our court Justices make fair, knowledgeable, and learned decisions when they set initial Parole Dates and sentences for those convicted of an index offence(s). This is why we will eliminate Eligibility for Parole Dates and replace with Automatic Parole Dates. Doing this must reduce the prison population and allow us to close those prisons that have mold, no cell toilets, and free officers for increased ETA. There will not be a reduction in staff, as they will be needed to facilitate the yearly ETA for all prisoners. With less prisoners in correctional facilities, the work load must decrease for less stress and an overall improvement in staff morale. Staff able to concentrate with more care and professionalism in their reports and facilitate the reintegration process of prisoners by interacting and assisting in more ETA.
Kitchen: All food prepared in the kitchen and delivered to prisoners must have random checks by an independent food inspector cleared employed by the local community reviewed through the Citizen’s Advisory Committee. The inspector will have a 1-800-telephone number prisoners are able to call to voice their concerns and the Food Inspector must be able to verify the food by dropping in for inspections at any time during the week or weekend. With the power to order new food or take-out for prisoners until the problem is fixed.

Mandatory pro bono legal services by the legal profession will promote greater access to justice and uphold the rule of law. Mandating pro bono services across Canada equally and positively can be assigned randomly to all law firms equally and per lawyer. We will allow lawyers to opt out of performing the pro bono requirement by paying their provincial/territorial Legal Services a yearly fee based upon the average of the examples listed herein. Fulfilling each lawyers obligation for pro bono would be either: 1-year for any Prisoner complaint or grievance matter; 2-years for any Criminal matter; 3-years for Immigration Refugee claim; and 4-years for a Child, Family and Community Service Act case.
Lawyers: Designate an adequate office for the population of the site and approved equipment and supplies for official Lawyer(s) to help prisoners in their grievance, direct those self-represented court applications, and have an office is open and accessible 7-days a week in the prison to all prisoners (Cost: $14,500,000).

Room & Board or service fees are not to be deducted from money sent to prisoners from family and friends, pensions, court payments, lawyers, or awards. All prisoners entitled to a two-day off work period per week. If alleged incident reported is not followed up by the Crown or victim, and there is no file of a court conviction on that instance, then the prisoner entitled to the benefit of the doubt and the incident rightly assumed not to have happened and not put in the file. This must eliminate malicious false reports by rogue police and persons with a grudge that try to add false information to a prisoner’s file that is inaccurate or have been proven untrue in court including those resulted in no charges nor convictions. IPO adding false information to prisoners’ files subjected to monetary sanctions $5,000 paid per instance to their victim and they may involve criminal charges of mischief and/or possible termination from CSC. Forthwith full deletion of incorrect file information including all information not resulting in a conviction mandated removed by all in Management and they will ensure to remove permanently all hints of use of the grievance system or current court processes to remedy personal issues of injustice and clearly wrong file information read instead of a full cap insert before or after the wrong paragraph so new printed version of the file will not have hint of the wrong information in it for viewing or review by a new IPO, CSC member, or especially the Parole Board of Canada.
Mandatory Minimums & Maximums: Abolish all mandatory minimums for all offences except murder. Justices are then able to sentence individuals with a variety of Restorative Justice Measures as alternatives helps start the healing for the victim(s) and community involved. Lengthy prison sentences will no longer be used as an intimidation technique by police or Crown and held over a suspected suspect for false confessions for a less degree charge or sentence. Those initiating and encouraging fighting in prison may receive additional sentences and further parole dates by Justices or sentenced themselves to prison time. Officers accused in grievances involved in inciting prisoners to violence or their inappropriate actions must be charged with inciting a riot, promoting bullying, abuse of authority, and must be suspended/terminated.

Examples witnessed and overheard by CSC staff bragging about at CSC Pacific Institution, BC: placing bird feed on volunteer, nurses, contractors and employee cars for birds to damage paint; slashing vehicle tires; deep scratches on paint otherwise known as ‘keying’; sugar being added to the gas tanks; and deliberately hitting and bumping into vehicles to create dents.
Parole Board Manual *Update: Special conditions (a) prohibiting to “own or use a computer as defined under the Criminal Code 342.1(2), or any technological device, would allow unsupervised access to the web” and (b) to report all relationships, sexual and non-sexual” seem to have become standard practice for the Parole Board to impose on a parolee. Seemingly inconsistent with the Parole Board Manual sec. 7.1(7), the Parole Board has violated the prisoner rights with these imposed conditions on any person who have not committed any convicted crime via the Internet or of a sexual nature.
Parole Board of Canada (PBC): Paid positions at par with CSC pay wages with the single criteria that no members hired have ever worked for CSC as an officer, manager, CORCAN and have never worked as a police officer. The PBC must be seen as impartial and separate from CSC and the law enforcement officers but as part of the legal system. Parole Board of Canada (PBC) must be elected for a set term and acting independently as the oversight committee on CSC and must be available for reviewing breaches on parole only and on weekends (Cost: $48,679,516).
All parolees issued by their Parole Officer and given free monthly city transit passes (subway/bus) paid forthwith by the Correctional Services of Canada for each month they are on parole for the areas they are residing and/or working in/at. $5,000 given to each prisoner upon Day Parole to assist in reintegration back into society and $5,000 for Full Parole for a total of $10,000 per prisoner. This must assist prisoners in getting a place to live (first and last months’ rent and 1-month security deposit where rent is averaging $2,000 per month).
National Oversight Committee created with an independent tribunal on members conduct and their decisions. Exceptional Accelerated Parole 2x must occur forthwith during all dates of double cell occupancy and 3x during all dates of a triple cell occupancy and so forth for each prisoner in addition to their pre-trial times. There must be full accountability on both sides. Internet restrictions will no longer apply unless by an actual court order is issued during sentencing or appeal(s). Alcohol restrictions lifted for everyone on parole unless it was actually part of the index offence. Only past convictions are discussed by CSC and parole. The board, when hearing interviews do occur, will ask and consider: who the person is now; where they are now; what they would do if released now; with little or no past offences not relevant in the now; who the person has become taking more time and weight than from what they were before. The PBC revised including the use only of convicted information may be used at hearings, all other alleged offences, and information not relevant to convicted offences ignored and not disclosed, nor discussed, nor put into the prisoners file. RCMP-GRC and police services must only be allowed to disclose actual convicted incidents to CSC and the PBC. The right to be presumed innocent must be enforced. Only convicted incidents will be allowed to be discussed.
PBC must be mandated to only review breaches in probation and approve or deny escorts in a timely manner (24-hours including weekends and holidays) with false breaches being actually criminally punishable including automatically punishing the parole officer or police officer involved for false arrest on an prisoner by following through on a deliberate false breach as punishment by unproven accusations. Those revoked must be entitled forthwith to a television in their cell by CSC and $50.00 on a pre-paid phone card as these requests only occur monthly and it may be several months before money is sent in, it clears, then allowed to transfer the funds to a phone card while waiting a decision on being revoked. Restoring the community and public confidence with a fair and impartial PBC can only be done when no ex-police, ex-justices, or ex-CSC employees are sitting as PBC members. Complaints on a PBC member(s) are to be sent to the Minister of Justice for an immediate Administrative Review of the case in question and all staff will have full accountability. PBC members terminated immediately for proven harassment or initiating physical altercations before, during or after a hearing, and not be re-located to other sites or for home office duty. All hearings taped and be made public forthwith (live streamed) without alteration, and copies automatically supplied to prisoners involved and on-line for the community to access and critique. Hearings monitored and public broadcasting to You Tube for help with oversight of this board. When Parole is granted, it must be accommodated within 24-hours. A seven (7) day grace period and turn-around for CSC to accommodate prisoners when day-paroled is granted with residency and no bed is available. If accommodation is not available in this time-frame, an emergency release will be issued forthwith allowing the prisoner to go to their home or apartment as a full service accommodation with all expenses provided by CSC (rent, food, and rental services) or a Hotel Room & $100 per diem food.
Indigenous incarceration is at an all-time high making 33% of all prisoners but only 5% of Canada. The PBC will automatically send Indigenous persons to a Healing Lodge or CRF or Minimum site on their day parole date regardless of the index offence(s). A special review panel will be created to ensure the Gladue principles are followed for all current files to be combed for misinformation to be deleted and to ensure there is culturally on-going appropriate treatment.
With the backlog of Psychological Assessments and the delays with hearings because of this requirement, rectify this with a policy if CSC does not provide a current psychological assessment (within one year) for parole, ETA, UTA, or parole board hearing dates, then the benefit of the doubt will go automatically to the prisoner and before 24-hours of a hearing, the IPO must enter into the prisoner’s files: “No psychological concerns at this time since last assessment.” And supply a printed copy to the prisoner before the hearing. With Automatic Parole, it must encourage CSC to make sure adequate assessments are done in a timely manner if they feel there is psychological concerns. No reference made to past and obsolete psychological assessments (any assessment over one year old) in this report or at a hearing. All hearing(s) must continue on-time without any administrative postponement for a new report or for programs to be completed. The onus is on CSC to ensure all programs are completed before parole hearings and provide a current psychological reports at the time of review or the board will err on the side of the prisoner in question in this matter and must base their rulings there are no psychological concerns at this time until proven otherwise by CSC. Day Parole and Full Parole must both have access to Federal Special Needs Supplement at $250.00 a month through Income Security for food & transit.
Parole Business Help Program: $12,000 interest and tax free Grant given forthwith to each prisoner has submitted a basic business plan to any member of their treatment team or PBC. This must assist them in re-integration into society. We hope this helps stop prisoners from returning to crime to pay for their initial rent and food and get back on their feet. An additional $12,000 Grant may be issued by the PBC if the business plan involves hiring a person in the community.
Parole Delays: Day Parole automatically increased to Full Parole if a prisoner has not been placed and physically put into a halfway house within seven (7) days by CSC. Restrictions by the PBC reduced and for the most, eliminated for all parolees for better reintegration back into society. Breaches mainly for breaking the law. “Behavioural deterioration” or “no longer manageable in the community” must not solely be allowed as excuses to rescind parole by a Parole Officer or the PBC because they don’t like what the parolee is doing or amount of money they are making. Examples: Clothing of the opposite sex being worn by a parolee or Parole Officer jealously as parolee is working as Staff at large concerts, events or movies.
Parole Officer (PO): Not allowed to suspend parolees who have a Long Term Supervision Order (LTSO) or those with a Life Tag imposed for preventing a breach of condition CD719, 2014-07-23, paragraph 26(b). Parole suspension can only occur for a convicted charge through the courts. Alternatives for increased halfway house supervision and less time in the community so long as it does not interfere with reintegration into the community to maintain supervised programs and treatments. Deteriorating attitude must have video and audio recordings as proof of any unruly public behaviour not acceptable by the average person, without this, a person cannot be parole suspended.
Parole: After a prisoner has received Day Parole and every three months thereafter, a parolee reviewed and granted Full Parole if two criteria are met: 1) employed; and 2) place to live.
Pay (prisoner): Direct the Treasury Board to set the base amount of pay at $20.00 per hour for prisoners with 80% deduction into the prisoners Community Savings Account (Registered Savings Bank Account in the local community). Those with Health Care issues, must receive one hour pay per day if unable to work as the new unemployment wage. A half-day pay calculated as 2.5 hours worked. Prisoners must not be forced to work 7-day shifts but only 5-days, regardless of hours worked. All sites must comply and have an over-abundance of part-time and full-time work available for all prisoners to meet a community full weeks’ pay at 40 hours, if they so choose. Otherwise, with all programs including chapel and AWC (Aboriginal Wellness Committee) programs offered, school, and unit jobs, a weekly pay calculated at 25-hours for all prisoners. Review of Section 78 CCRA: Employ/Employer relationship exists in Section 78 and prisoners have employee status. Order at a minimum, to comply with Minimum Wage for hourly work done according to the Minimum Wage Act of all provinces and territories.
Pensions: Crown must ensure all prisoners detained are credited with and at their full CPP contributions per person for each month of their incarceration, this includes pre-trial. Had the person not been incarcerated, they would have been working and paying into the CPP. CPP and all other pension checks must no longer be suspended for those incarcerated and all prisoners eligible to receive them in full without any CSC deductions.
Phones & Cellphones: Smart phones (pay as you go only) allowed for prisoners and added as a cell effect with pre-approved numbers and apps. Money can be put on phone cards and deposited directly in prisoner accounts must not have a fee-for-service attached by contractor. Past fees deducted reimbursed to the prisoner, forthwith. CSC must arrange to have affordable rates with Canadian contractors and free 10-minute telephone access for family members or those on the prisoners approved list at least once per week. Provincial/Territorial Access Centers returned to all sites and on approved list of 1-800’s for access to all court Registrars and all provincial/territorial government services. Phones will be uploaded by finance every two-weeks as per canteen accounts (Cost: none).
Phone Card: $50.00 initial then $20.00 (yearly) complimentary put onto their phone card so prisoners can immediately telephone their lawyers, families, or friends, and all TD prisoners (Cost: $500,000).
Pre-Trial: Time served in pre-trial set at a minimum, 2-for-1 including all Lifers. An elimination of unfairness for credited time served in pre-trial when Lifers are sentenced and denied bail. Lifers convicted of a single murder, included in the Accelerated Parole Program. 30-day interim prescription plus balance of their issued and paid for prescriptions in custody and when released, and minimum wage per day detention fee given to the prisoner upon release.
Prisoner Death, Ceremony & Burial: An ongoing prisoner program enacted to ensure prisoners while alive, have a chance to prepare for their death in custody with a choice of their memorial, burial options, location, ceremony preference, synopsis pamphlet with photo, and allowed to upgrade their burial marker to select and upgrade to a favorite stone and have their favourite quote, saying and drawing added to it by themselves or another person detained with artistic talent for a set contract fee as allowed extra transfers from their savings account.
Prisoner Death, How we dispose of our bodies: Prisoners must be given the choice of: “rot” (burial); “burn” (cremation); “promession” (freeze-drying the corpse, shattering it and using the resulting powder as compost); “crypopreservation” (preserving corpses in whole or in part, such as head only in super-cold storage until science figures out a way to kick-start them back to life); “vertical burial” (self-expanatory, saves space); “burial in outer space” (of tiny cremain conatiners or a body part); “burial at sea” (legal but officially frowned upon); “peat pot” (cremated ashes placed in an organic container and buried with a tree seed); and “Whole body donation to science” (any hospital/university/college that wants the remains).
Private Family Visit (PFV): These allowed for approval on day-one of a federal sentences. Suspensions must be reviewed monthly for all visitor or prisoner suspensions for PFV and visits, and must not ever last longer than 2-months. Family allowed to bring in unopened food and packages and to take out unused and unopened food and packages. This must include but not limited to pizza, donuts, and DVD movie rentals. Restricted visits also must not last longer than 30-days. Suspicion must not be able to be used to cancel or deny visits or PFV.
PFV’s & Weddings: CSC must provide the funds for food at $50 per day. PFV for up to 7-days mandated for the Warden to be accommodated on the day of wedding at all CSC sites. Weddings allowed to be held in all site Chapels with up to twelve outside visitor guests for a one-time special visitor clearance regardless of visitors past convictions, if any. Wedding rings (unlimited value) allowed to be brought in by the spouse and the site Chaplain can have the wedding rings added as a religious effect to the prisoners’ cell effects forthwith and prior to the ceremony. Food allowed to be purchased or brought in for the event and celebration ceremony in the Chapel. Weddings in the morning, lunch at the Chapel with guests, then after the marriage ceremony and meal time the married couple can start their PFV in the early afternoon when the guests leave. File information used to deny a visitor for PFV and/or visits must have copy as confirmation proof (example: court order of a recent conviction or recent charge by police) to deny a visitor due to the rampant false information is added to files by rogue officers to deliberately deny visits. Charges and accusations over one year excluded from file updates and used in decisions to deny a visitor. Any PFV will be considered as full-time in a program with the appropriate pay per day.
Privatize Prisons: We oppose attempts to privatize prisons and services to prisoners in Canada. Privatization has bankrupted many USA prisons and forced many USA prisoners to be released without proper treatment and without their full-time being served or monitored. It has been shown to be very detrimental to the health, mental health, mortality (average age of 60 for the death of a Canadian prisoner vs. average age of 70 for the death of the Canadian public); welfare and anxiety of prisoners, staff, and volunteers in very poor food variety (increased stews and pre-mixed pastas officers have even refused to eat in the provided cafeteria nor pay for the ‘swirl’ is being served to prisoners), quality, and nourishment (bare minimum sustenance); Health Care, and educational services for prisoners is removed and denied to save money and normal services are reduced and those that actually help to rehabilitate prisoners are stripped down to barely the bare bones basic services that do not help in rehabilitation but foster resentment and retaliation by riots, contraband, poor sanitation, overcrowding, and subsequent reduced operations of prison sites by buildings being burnt down during riots.
Accountability becomes blurred when privatization occurs especially when prisoners are injured or killed by low costing of ill-prepared and non-trained security staff being employed. Overcrowding and increased capacity is the root cause of this as it becomes a huge issue, with double-bunking plus is being used to save money instead of corrective treatments and reduced incarcerations. Remove the incentive bonus for all staff. Especially as those saving do not spend funds and instead redirect allotted money dedicated to services and programs tagged for prisoners’ health and well-being. Examples: denied in-cell toilets, post-secondary education, food, and Health Services. To assist the local businesses to make it worthwhile to have CSC in their community, re-allow the purchases of all cell effects from the community stores (Hudson’s Bay, London Drugs, Staples, Coles, etc…) are on a fair community supplier list and not a single supplier to give choice and better quality options are available in the community and not just the garbage and bargain basement trash is being pushed onto prisoners with deliberate price gouging (prices more than 10%).
Program Accountability: Prisoners may take and have CSC cover the cost of specialized trades and education programs but required to pay back in instalments to the Crown starting upon Day Parole, the costs of trade certificates or certifications (Electrician, Plumbing, Culinary Arts, Firefighting, Mechanic, Construction, College or University, etc.), and other educational courses applied for while detained and these paid in full by Crown upon initial application. All payments to Crown must start after being granted Day Parole (mandatory program assignments and maintenance assigned will not qualify for or under the re-payment plan) and gaining employment in the community. Any trade courses accommodated (Red Seal Certification and other testing, example: Firefighting Certification) for all prisoners while detained and tallied and required to be paid back to Crown in installments while working during Day Parole and Full Parole at 30% net wages. Beside all Warrant Expiry dates must also be the amount owing to Crown. These programs may be taken at time of the sentence, including to maintain and keep certificates valid, this must include a prisoner’s Driver’s Licence and CSC mandated to arrange renewals within 15-days of a request and before the expiry of these licences or cover costs incurred.
Programs: CSC (Correctional Service Canada) mandated to provide and arrange all programs and maintenances are completed in full prior to all parole dates imposed by the courts. This must include Psychological Assessments as a program done prior to transfer, either involuntary, voluntary or expected parole release date regardless if granted or not.
Provoking: A prisoner or CSC staff provoked to commit violence allowed as new defence and those provoking subject to the exact same sentence as the one committing the offence as an accomplice. This must help tackle taunting and the mental abuse that occurs including room trashing and personal items taken, damaged (sunglasses scratched) or items deliberately dropped during searches. Banning the use of solitary confinement on all prisoners in Canada citing its devastating, lasting psychological consequences.
Punitive Bureaucratic Delay: Staff threatening any denied downward movement when programs are done. This if proven, must result in either a termination of CSC employment and/or a fine of $25,000.00 to be given to the prisoner by CSC.
Purchasing: Prisoners purchases must be in-line with community standards and streamlined at all sites with a 21-day turnaround from initial request to receiving the requested item(s) including magazines (Cell Count, Out of Bounds,…), books, newspapers, comics, and allowed 3-provincial/territorial weekly lottery ticket draw tickets (not scratch) with the Extra. Example: Wednesday Lotto 649/BC49 ticket may include the bonus plus Friday’s Super-7 ticket with Bonus plus Saturday’s 649/BC49 ticket with Bonus must be a total of 3-tickets per week. For all winning tickets, the funds deposited in their Community Bank Account and they must be approved escorted if the winning ticket is large and requires an in-person appearance for collection and photo forthwith or within 7-days of winning by the Warden. Current institutional bans on book/magazine/newspaper/internet printed pages lifted and allowed from any publisher or retailer at all sites in pre-trial, federal, and provincial/territorial jails and detention centres forthwith. Institutional Head (Warden) May no longer restrict items that can be purchased from multiple suppliers and allowed according to CD 566-12 (by 4b) and items pre-approved by and put on any National List of allowed items. ITFs issued within 24-hours of receipt by the site. Actual replacement value with taxes & shipping covered by Crown. Prototype Integrated Solutions or any contractor supplier may only charge at most a 22% mark-up from any local store, example: Walmart. A fine of 200% will be leveled and given to each prisoner affected which will cover and include all taxes and shipping.
Regional Review Assessment Centres: All persons housed will have the opportunity to assign a volunteer to purchase items for their First Window and have it sent to RRAC. All ITF’s for RRAC and TD will be date approved to come through their savings account if funds are available and not count towards their transfer amounts, regardless if they are transferred, as the ITF will transfer with them and be re-directed by the Regional Depot. Methadone/Suboxone and other similar restricted treatments will only be offered at Pre-Trial, RRAC and TD, or in a dedicated unit and apart from the general population. Healing Units will no longer be part of the Methadone/Suboxone and/or treatments of opiate dependence.
Re-integration Plan: Letters from community supporting parole, the prisoners’ plans, the IPO confirms by Community Assessment, in an updated report the offender has a realistic plan for re-integration with community support.
Religion & Spirituality: To address the majority of spiritual needs and the CSC disconnect with operational requirements at all sites, increase all religious and spiritual contracts for adequate access for all practitioners of all faiths. Shaving money from chaplaincy is a false economy and has the appearance of racism. Programs have proven to help make sense of the world by assisting prisoners in finding ones faith is very productive and beneficial to address years of trauma, spiritual tears, childhood abuse, and often helps heal old wounds for better and positive reintegration back into society. Standardizing the Commissioner Directives and rules for all religious effects, to include that once a religious effect has been issued, it cannot be taken away by an officer unless it is used in a major chargeable offence (example: wooden Medicine Boxes, issued and then taken away because of alleged fire hazard or safety concerns even though these issues were addressed when spiritual advisor initially issued the item). All faiths must have full-time travelling chaplains for a 2-hour actual visit plus 2-hours travel for a total of 1/2 day paid for each main faith chaplain must include these main groups: Christian, Protestant, Buddhist, Wiccan/Pagans, Sikh, Muslim, and Jewish. Contracts will be long-term for 10-years, incorporate a 3% increase in pay yearly, and cover holiday staffing. Travelling chaplains must also be given adequate travel funds (reimbursement for ferry costs, gas, and parking) to visit each site in their region in their dedicated area at least once every two-weeks and at CSC officer pay rates. An adequate number of full-time travelling chaplains to visit all sites at least once every two-weeks. The hours expanded for sites with discrete populations (Temporary Detention, RRAC, Hospitals, and specialized handling units). Travelling chaplains may also be granted a full-time assistant to assist with driving, supplies, and ceremonies. Adequate communication and monthly review of services. Rational with a proper appeal given in writing to the population of all sites on reduction of services. Example: Gym & Library must operate 7-days (mornings and afternoons) a week minimum including national holidays with holiday pay provided for the supervising SPO or Librarians.
Wiccans and Pagans: Have had the brunt of their funding cut by CSC alleging the numbers are not there as CSC discriminatorily isolates one group of practitioners from the other along with other faith chaplains have had unfair funding cuts. It is unreasonable to expect a chaplain to suddenly operate on 25% of their salary with only funding reviews every 6-months. Reviews when they are conducted, must be completed with accurate figures and with adequate timed notice for all site chaplains to verify and update their files before the count is taken. Many Indigenous peoples follow Pagan paths as customs and ceremonies dictate. Modify the OMS so it allows for the additions of following of multiple paths by prisoners and their discovery which limits the actual factual numbers of those attending faith ceremonies and rites of passage. In actuality, most chapel faith groups have a larger number of practitioners as many people follow more than one path when they are exploring their spirituality, and they do not claim a specific faith or path because to do so they have witnessed or have become subject to racism by many staff in the form of cruel and unusual searches, damage and confiscation to their medicine boxes and religious effects, and false file information added about themselves.
Indigenous Elders: Mandating there be full-time (40-hour) work-week positions, at the pay scale rates equal to management according to their service years, and a ramped up 7-day access including holidays and all weekends to Elders that must be provided for all prisoners at all sites. Paycheck delays will result in $100-per-day compensation. More access during movement times and allowed walk-ins for consultation. When ceremonies are underway and prisoners have been accounted for, no further unnecessary disruptions of the ceremonies may occur. Ceremony disruptions by returning prisoners to their unit for re-counting is unnecessary and clearly an abuse of security power are valid termination cause. Compensated for time collecting medicines and medicines brought into a site (Cost: $2-million).
Elders and Chaplains: Contract spiritual workers for CSC by Regional for the Warden at the site they represent with their pay increased and in-line with CSC IPO Managers and compensated for their loss in earnings when Public Works took over their contracts. New faith contracts must be received at least 60-days prior to the fiscal year ending and a decision returned within 30-days. Any lapse triggers default to previous contract being resumed for 4-years with a 3% mark-up in pay yearly.
Elder on Treatment Team: Elders will take the lead in their Treatment Teams recommendations regardless of alternate opinions and the team must follow the Elder’s lead and direction for treatment for those identified and placed under their care. This includes those prisoners identified as workers and allowed to stay over counts to assist them perform their spiritual duties.
Elder Visitor Fund: Each site will ensure that each Elder has access to disperse $2,000 per month as they see fit, for outside visitors to prisons or spiritual items to assist their programs. Funds given to visitors to be used as they see fit for travel/airfare, stipends, food and accommodation. Elders will each have additional funds for cooking (pemmican, bannock, and medicines) and a locked kitchen freezer and fridge to ensure that 25 lbs. of game meat is available for their programs use per month.
Removing all Mandatory Minimums: Included are Life tags. Current prisoners with a Life tag or Dangerous Offender (DO) will be automatically changed by Sentence Management to conform to a 25-year sentence each with a Warrant Expiry at the end of that time. Parole will be automatic as per the justice and jury decision, regardless of programs started or completed. Any prisoner detained past their parole dates will be considered Cruel and Unusual Punishment after 1-year of this policy coming into force. Those serving consecutive sentences accumulatively over the 15-years, including multiple murder, will be allowed the reinstated s.745.6 of the Criminal Code, the “Faint Hope Clause” and the application will be streamlined to a single application form for all prisoners. A full sentence review on the 15-year mark will be conducted each and every 5-years on the date of prisoner sentenced. For the purpose of the review, a case will be considered fully re-opened and any and all new information will be allowed at this hearing, and the conviction and sentencing will be allowed reviewed on that day and in-person. Hearings consist of Justice, Crown, IPO, Elder, Prisoner, Prisoner’s Lawyer, and Victim Representatives.
Restorative Justice (RJ): RJ is an evolving and expanding approach that offers the promise of a new paradigm of justice, one focused on accountability, inclusion, problem-solving, and healing by mandating all the following for safer communities and is our strategy to reduce the number of issues raised in lawsuits, prisoner rights groups, and in all the reports filed by the Correctional Investigator.
Restore Funding to Community Volunteer Groups: Prisoner Entrepreneur Program implemented to teach all prisoners proper etiquette: act, look, and dining. Increase in funding including all groups have proven to help in reintegration of prisoners (Family Visitation Program, Ride Share, Restorative Justice, M2/W2, LINC, AA, NA, John Howard Society, et al.) and have these group visits accommodated in the Chapel at all sites as the least restricted area (Cost: $58-million).
Right to a Speedy Trial: Those persons denied bail and charged with an offence must be entitled to have their cases heard with a jury within thirty (30) days upon being charged with an offence; and all those whose charges are Stayed or Dismissed by Crown and wrongfully incarcerated with convictions being overturned by the courts are entitled to a fixed set of fair compensation forthwith on the very same day and received from the Court Registrar by the Receiver General: Initial compensation is set at $5,000 for each day a victim who was a prisoner and detained, Cruel and Unusual treatment may have occurred, plus their children and parents each receive $1,000 a day compensation for loss of companionship due upon release by forthwith. The day a person is released, must also be the day they can start anew with needed funds.
Royal Prerogative of Mercy Requests: For those aging and dying behind bars be approved and increased to be included in our national strategy to address the Health Care concerns of those aged fifty (50) or older. An aging prison population is a waste of taxpayer funds when family and granted earlier and accelerated parole would be a better fit for those in the last years of their lives, surrounded by their family.
School: All prisoners allowed the opportunity to study an alternative second language even if they have graduated or met the equivalency tests for their graduation certificates. Post-secondary education promoted and encouraged for all graduates and covered by CSC. Computer programs like Calculator, Paint, Word, Excel, Power Point, Encarta, Britannica, Avery, publishing and creative writing programs must all be allowed and encouraged at all sites and on all computers to promote education on the units. School open and available as in the community from Monday to Friday, excluding holidays, each morning and afternoon. Post-Secondary education paid by CSC for any prisoner including Red Seal Certification of trades.
Sealed Records: Those incarcerated are our children and are also our future employees. We must take responsibility now to guide them and not continue to further punish them once they are released. The records of all juveniles must be sealed upon their sixteenth (16) birthday and not further used by CSC. It must be mandated juvenile files are not to be ever viewed or used in adult CSC reviews, PBC hearings or decisions. Breach of this injustice must result in a Warrant Expiry being issued effectively voiding the index offence in question and must result in a full expungement forthwith (Cost: $2-million).
Section 81 and Section 84: New CSC policy for permanency for both Section 81 and Section 84 with long-term equal CSC funding rate per diem at capacity and communities compensated for adequate insurance, all employee training to CSC standards (estimated costs: $34,000), planning, and monitoring an offender’s compliance with conditions. Healing Lodges – Community Custody Agreements are accessible to all indigenous offenders regardless of their prisoner’s security classification and based on the MLSN (Mi’Kmaq Legal Support) model from Nova Scotia working with Parole Board of Canada and Aboriginal Affairs Canada for permanent and adequate financial resources to meet ongoing operational and infrastructure costs. Funding to ensure bed spaces on reserves for all incarcerated indigenous persons who have reached their parole date or statutory release date. To be accommodated into the community and confined to the boundaries of the reserve. Permission for ETA’s, work release including Pathways, or UTA’s, clear direction on limits, movement within the boundaries of the reserve and clear direction on times when they must be in their place of residence or participating at pre-approved ceremonies (fasting, Pow-wow, Change-of-Seasons, Sundance) on the reserve.
Security Reclassification Scale (SRS): Re-evaluating all SRS scores with no Institutional Parole Officer (IPO) input on ratings. SRS questions either yes or no or numbers entered and each program completed/finished must have an SRS point reduction. Prisoners doing ‘dead-time’ (wanting to work but no jobs available or hired) paid for vocational training and everyone approved for in-cell post-secondary studies, adult education and upgrading with 3rd Party Certification. Institutional Charges Convicted must be the only ones allowed to be entered, not total number of institutional charges. Accountability will no longer play a role in the inmate pay scale nor the ability to cascade to Minimum. Ensure that once a prisoner file has been lowered in security, it cannot be increased unless there are new serious or minor charges resulting in convictions. Oversight will be with the courts on any increase without convicted incidents. All incidents will have oversight by the justice courts with the power to reopen a convicted prisoners’ sentence and their expected release dates and power to change them (increase or decrease any release and parole dates).
Sentencing Commission of Canada: To review all prisoner files and provide actionable recourse solutions for the CCRG on possible over-convictions and wrongful convictions and fast-track enforceable action by Crown to rectify these cases.
Sentence Management: Standardize to rectify all pre-trial sentencing for every incarcerated person. Lifers have been unfairly treated and sentenced with actual appearance of an increased sentence because their pre-trial time has been calculated at only the 1:1 time served rate by Sentence Management. Effective immediately, all Lifer’s and others incarcerated only given 1:1 for their pre-trial, must retroactively be given a 3:1 time served for all pre-trial and trial days served up to and including their sentencing date. 3:1 the new standard for those denied or revoked on bail, on parole in Temporary Detention or granted parole but not released within 24-hours, and include any detention or bail time prior to sentencing.
Sentence Management Review: All Federal Sentences must start at Minimum Security and if there were serious incidents initiated by the prisoner in pre-trial or during sentence, then the security placement must only then be increased for public safety. All persons in Medium and Minimum security must be entitled to the same programs including community parenting programs, security clearances, and least restrictive movements as their counterparts (female or male) in other institutions.
Shackled: Modify the transport of defendants and Criminal Code of Canada one presumed innocent will not be shackled (handcuffed hands or legs) as this undermines the presumption of innocence, offends the human dignity and humiliation of the detainee in the face of the court. A defendant must be allowed to remain unrestrained in court, and include entering and leaving courtrooms. Carry over to include persons transporting defendants to courtrooms. The general public and media must not see or photograph a defendant restrained and shackled while attending court while presumed innocent. Only when one is found guilty must handcuffs and shackles ever need to be employed.
Showers: Remove all unnecessary barriers for showers (Taxpayer funds now wasted as newly being installed at Pacific Institution and not denied use as punishment) and provide reasonable and adequate showering privacy without officers able to view, observe, grieve and comment on and washrooms access and barriers segregating each range per unit.
Smoking: Designating smoking areas and away from buildings (in the main prisoner yard and outdoor break areas) for everyone wishing to smoke while in prison and again allowing prisoners the opportunity to purchase tobacco and tobacco like products on their canteen. Taxing and treating e-cigarettes as cigarettes with the same penalties as smoking cigarettes indoors. Cigarettes, cannabis, and including alternative nicotine products allowed for use by prisoners available for immediate purchase on all Prisoner Canteens with lighters. Smoking will not be allowed indoors but must be allowed outside in the main yards and designated areas away from buildings (open in mornings, afternoons, and evenings), at Private Family Visiting (PFV), and all events.
Solitary Confinement: Strict time limits defined as more than 12-hours locked-up in a cell. Prisoners must have 6-hours of outdoor and gym recreation time per day. Any time any prisoner is locked-up in their cell while the majority of the population is out, otherwise known as administrative segregation will be considered solitary confinement and a full report must be completed and submitted to the Citizen Advisory Committee. The Citizen Advisory Committee will be the reviewer of all solitary confinement and administrative segregation. This will re-affirm an impartial review is conducted not by any CSC staff member or CSC personnel. All cells must be equipped with a working television, bed, mattress, blankets, and appropriate lights for 24-hour reading or writing and the option to turn off the lights for sleeping.
Staff Training: Staff training must no longer interfere with the regular operations of the institution, programs. If programs are cancelled then yard, gym or library, chapel, hobbies, AWC grounds, an alternative to programs with full pay issued for the facilitator missing and taking a day-off.
Standardized Federal and Provincial Procedures: Prisoners post-release and release into the community, require 30-days’ worth of prescriptions, arranged affordable shelter, peer support, basic medical coverage includes: dental, optometrist, and prescriptions for one year; to help make transition and reintegration into the community successful.
Stocks Allowed for Prisoners to Purchase: Stock purchases on all TSX markets for Release Portfolio and lottery tickets purchases at all sites with all winnings directly deposited into the prisoners Community Savings Bank Account (TD, Royal, etc.), not a CSC finance account.
Strip Searching Prisoners: Moratorium. Contraband majority normally enters a prison site by CSC staff. Body scanners deployed at all prison sites and when deemed absolutely necessary. Strip searching with the opposite sex present and/or viewing, or grabbing or fondling the sex organs of a prisoner, even over clothing, considered a criminal offence and punishable with a charge of “sexual assault” and require a formal apology and include a fine paid forthwith to the victim by CSC of officer’s 8-hours wages forthwith. Multiple offences on the same day must result in additional monetary damages to be paid and further sanctions may include officer termination and not a transfer of the officer to another site.
Supreme Court of Canada: Leave to Appeal granted priority and fast-tracked for all cases involve and have DNA analysis and exclusionary results from DNA experts. Those denied will have their monetary compensation multiplied by six (6).
Surety: Those who post bail also need to be held accountable, money pledged as bail must be collected unless it is beyond the control of the prisoner (being held by CSC, police, or in another court).
Swap Meet: The SPO’s and A&D will arrange to have a Swap Meet in the gym for prisoners to remove items and add items to their cell effects without hassle and at a reasonable replacement cost for all used T-shirts $5.00, Shorts $10.00, Jeans $15.00, Shoes $20.00, used video games $5.00, CD’s $1.00, Televisions $100.00 and other items when people are preparing to leave their site (30-days before). Items confiscated and returned if they are reported and are on a “hot list” of stolen or missing items.
Tattoo Program: Reinstate the Safe Tattooing Program with training, purchasing of safe tattoo equipment and materials (inks, sharps box, and needles) under hobbies, and policy it to be available for all prisoners. Rewriting trauma through body art. This needs to be offered at all sites federal and provincial and as an in-cell allowed hobby upon day one of detention. Tattoo equipment allowed on cell property and facilitated by treatment team as a viable business plan for release (Cost: $2-million).
Televisions: All Federal and Provincial detention centres (prisons) must ensure a working television is in each and every cell including segregation with either CSC paid cable or satellite service and a variety of channels and movies (HBO, Space, FX, Movie Central, CBC, BNN, BBC). This acts as a babysitter for all prisoners and has shown a large number of reduced incidents. Prices and named-brand items allowed are available in the community with no price gorging. National Catalogue for Inmate Personal Property, [allow prisoners to purchase items at multiple vendor stores to support the local economy instead of price-gorging. Example: Item#1174 RCA 19” LED television with remote control and headphone jack $248.89 plus taxes = $278.86 but yet, the exact same television is available in the community at London Drugs for the regular price of $119.84 tax included]. I point out that we are guests of the Her Majesty the Queen and are being forced to pay for personal items from single American family in Florida through Prototype (Cost: $3,425,000).
Temporary Detention (TD): CSC must provide a television for those detained upon intake and cover the payment costs for community rent, cable, electricity, and heating, for those with residences in the community for the duration of the TD up to and including the final appeal decision. A person must only be put into TD if they have been criminally convicted by the Crown with a new offence. Suspicion or under investigation by the police will no longer be grounds for TD. Nor will past reasons of rapidly deteriorating attitude, suspicion, association of unsavory characters, and association of known criminals. It is a reality all prisoners are forced to live with and are deliberately housed with known criminals on parole at half-way houses and so association of known criminals becomes a moot point.
Theft: Modify the Criminal Code of Canada for victim restitution. CSC officers confiscating items were lawful or damaging them, must be grounds for sanctions, criminal charges, and may include termination by the Warden. Any items confiscated will be replaced at the actual replacement costs including shipping and taxes and not the cell amount listed and the lesser of the two amounts will be put on the prisoner cell effects sheet.
Transcripts: Right to Justice with complimentary Audio and CD-ROM transcripts of case sent to those incarcerated. All granted Legal Aid funding on all applications to any of the courts, especially those involving grievances to the Supreme Court, Federal Court, and Supreme Court of Canada.
Transfers: Province or Territory transfers accommodated once every four (4) years and must no longer be required for family nor community support prior to transfer. It is the prisoner’s responsibility to find support for parole in their province and not for the transfer process. Starting anew, in any province or territory is a right for every Canadian prisoner. All prisoners transferred with all of their belongings with them. This must eliminate theft and damage to and lost cell effects prisoners are grieving and crown is forced to pay through negligence and theft by CSC staff. For those travelling province to province by Air, a limit of 4-legal sized copy paper boxes (10-packs of 500 sheets of 8.5”x14” paper) with the rest to follow. All effects opened and catalogued according to the previous cell effects list in-front of the prisoner at the time of arrival at the new institution, regardless of the time. A&D mandated to be open at all sites 24/7. Three meals a day, a daily shower, plus a toilet, a sink, a mattress, a pillow, two thermal winter blankets, a computer, and a working television in all cells will be considered a prisoner right of entitlement. The removal of mattresses and televisions as a punitive measure will cease, this must also include turning-off the power or cable connection in a cell so televisions and stereos cannot work. All cell power outages recorded with times, durations, and the names of officers on duty as all sites have back-up generators.
Ventilation Poor Air Quality = Genetic Mutations: Poisoning inmates causing injury and related deaths: Anthrax, gonorrhea, typhoid fever, malaria, tuberculosis, diphtheria, cholera, tetanus, and other respiratory problems requiring medical assisted breathing devices being deployed. Prisoners housed while any work for asbestos and black mold removal occurred must be monetarily compensated per day of work while occupancy occurred.
Victim Safe Space Act: Specifically bar sex offenders from living near their victims or in the same city. Allow for supervised escorts into the community for family, education, and business ventures. Update the requirement of the Sex Offender Registry to only be valid for 10-years upon conviction or warrant expiry, not life. A simple no fee, 1-page justice application for judicial review on Sex Offender Registry prior to or after warrant expiry. A light at the end of the tunnel for those that have truly changed.
Visitation Family Program: Costs and accessibility of weekly weekend visits born by CSC for all children. The opportunity to visit incarcerated parent(s) facilitated as an encouraged re-integration program at all sites with the decrease in prison population and need for re-training and maintaining the current staffing of CSC. Parents allowed to visit all their children at the same time and preferably at the same site. Program open to those 18-year olds and younger. Connecting all children with their parents’ at least once-a-week (weekends) in all provincial and federal prisons and it must assist those children in strengthening and knowing the system is there to assist and help them, not just tear them apart.
Visitor Passes: Passes must now expire on Warrant Expiry or 25-years as a one-time application to streamline the process. CSC nor the government will not be allowed to conduct financial nor credit checks on any visitors, volunteers, nor prisoners. Visitors to the accused must not be punished with multiple visitor passes but issued once, phone verification for confirmation of family ties sufficient for family and friends to send in money to the prisoner. Visitors allowed to tour the site monthly and actually see the living quarters of their family member or the person they are visiting and comforting visitors to the health and safety of the prisoner. Ensure it is a constitutional right of all Canadians to be allowed open visits to visit prisoners without requiring a background check, photo, paying a fee, or filling out a visitor application form. Handing over a valid driver’s licence or form of photo identification (Example: Health Card, School Identification) sufficient. Visitor Passes would only be required by CSC for those wishing to go beyond the visiting room like chapel, private family visits, or social events.
Visits and Correspondence (V&C): All outgoing mail and packages are to be stamped by Postal Metre at V&C and automatically deducted from the Prisoners’ savings account (negative balances allowed for use to dip into the mandatory $80 hold). To encourage correspondence and reduce time with finance, five (5) Canadian stamps a week (accumulative) allotted per prisoner as in-line with the provincial and territorial detention and prisoner use of a postage metre using their identification number. Online visit booking for all CSC sites and booking 7-visits in advance. Allow printed internet materials from the internet, book, magazine, newspaper, calendar, from publisher, supplier or retailer and these are allowed to be sent in by a person on the prisoners’ telephone list. Visits must not ever be allowed cancelled by anyone.
Vocational Training: Increased for prisoner doing ‘dead-time’, new work programs created for adult education upgrading, First Aid Level-3 (monthly), multiple-trades certification at all sites, and increased hobbies for those talented and creative can assist the local community by building shelters or tiny homes, animal care, and growing food for food banks.
Voting: To encourage voting, CSC must ensure:
All elections mail and letters addressed to Party Leaders classified as privileged;
All federal, provincial and territorial voting telephone numbers (to register by phone) are listed and fully accessible at all sites on the approved inmate telephone system;
Election officials are allowed at all sites, units and ranges on voting day and CSC allows and arranges all residents an opportunity to vote, in-person, without a request, regardless if they are locked-up by cell-restricted CSC measures;
Federal, provincial and territorial party platforms be available on all prisoner accessible computers, Inmate Wellness Committee, and at the Library in electronic and printed format; and
Full list of all candidates in all ridings made available to the Library and the Inmate Wellness Committee at the close of any candidate application prior to vote day.
Voting by Prisoners: Most prisoners have an average circle of support (excluding CSC) consisting of 24 people (1 mother and 1 father, 2 siblings [either brother(s) and/or sister(s)], 2 aunts, 2 uncles, 12 cousins, 4 close friends (community employment associates & volunteers). Multiply these 24 people by each of the 25,000 prisoners in CSC care equals 600,000 voters for new Smart on Crime Criminal Justice Reform with empowered communities with Smart Justice according to the Blue Ribbon Panel and Smart Justice Canada.
Voting Irregularities: Prisoners receiving their voting package either after the vote or not having the time to fill-out and mail it to be actually counted in any provincial/territorial/federal vote must be reported as an irregularity to Elections Canada and a fine of $25,000 is be paid to the prisoner forthwith for each of their loss of their Canadian opportunity to vote.
Wardens: All put on notice for drastic changes starting with Military stepping in as Warden’s for all sites with Military Police as an immediate oversight of all guards to address the rampant culture of fear, mistrust, intimidation, disorganization, and inconsistency plaguing our correctional facilities. This first step will start the process of addressing the toxic culture of bullying, abuse of power, white-washing, stagnation of prisoners, and sexually explicit conversations and actions including “favours” for staff promotion or for prisoners to cascade to lower security. Military Wardens must have the power to terminate forthwith all CSC staff per site and address prisoner issues plaguing CSC.
Warrant Expiry: Initially set but actually only occur at the time Crown is paid back in full, otherwise a prisoner will remain on parole. Full amount owing to Crown mandated to be displayed on all finance statements to prisoners.
Washrooms: Unrestricted washroom access in the building of the event provided for all visitors and inmates at all socials, visiting events, and functions, and also for inmates in an outdoor locked yard.
Wi-Fi capabilities and USB Devices Allowed: All sites approved for prisoner smart phones, computers, tablets and all wireless capability items, including CCC and half-way houses with unrestricted internet access.
Work & Working Days: Days referred calculated as seven-days-a-week, including weekends and holidays as the prison system does not shut down for these holidays or weekends. CSC abides by the laws of the land including the Minimum Wage Act and Labour Code with respect to hours worked and holidays. Work weeks no longer than five (5) days for a job or program, including part-time employment. All federal sites must acknowledge and respect their sites provincial/territorial holidays and allow all their prisoners a paid day off work and programs as the local community standard. Federal CSC staff can use the local holiday time to catch-up on their backlog of required reports without distractions from needing to be at work/programs or needing to meet and supervise prisoners.
Work Sweep: Locking up prisoners in the cell when able to work. This unfair practice will cease immediately. If a prisoner is not working, they allowed access to the main yard for a minimum of 2.5 hours each (mornings, afternoons, and evenings), library, chapel, Indigenous grounds (referred to as AWC), school (regardless if they are employed there) and hobbies during the work day. The fact sites do not have enough jobs for all their prisoners to be employed makes this a punitive treatment and one needs to and must stop immediately. All programs considered full-time employment with full-time pay regardless of the duration of the daily program including days are scheduled and a facilitator fails to show. Holidays disrupt a program considered attended and booked as full time pay for the prisoner. No breaks in a prisoners pay or routine for facilitators taking time-off, facilitators not showing up, holidays, staff training, medical appointments, or religious and cultural programs and services.
Yard: All sites required to have morning, afternoon, and evening main yard times (track and field, basketball and tennis courts) of at least 2-hours each and available for all offenders when not in programs and they are unlocked with unrestricted washroom and water access during yard times.
Youth Jails: Turning to Restorative Justice and Educational Housing Centres with emphasis on education, trades, life skills, and career guidance. Legislate youth sentences for all youths while revisiting all cases with current adult sentencing imposed by the courts on those youths who committed offences as youths.
Young Offenders Act: Review to ensure it is not an inducement to young crime, while retaining its core principle young adults must not be treated as hardened criminals. Ensure when the records are sealed, they remain sealed and are no longer used against the offender in programs, reports, nor by the Parole Board of Canada when they become of age. All prisoners need to get the care they need to be healthy and allowed the opportunity to reintegrate back into society, and opportunity to cascade to a lower security and housed at and in a minimum setting (managing and cooking their own meals) prior to their Day Parole date.

Direct the Treasury Board to set the base amount of federal pay at $20.00 per hour for prisoners; a living wage. Ensure Canada Labour Code applies to all prisoners at all sites, order CSC to at a minimum, comply with Minimum Wage for hourly work done according to the Minimum Wage Acts of each province or territory;
Corrections and Conditional Release Act (CCRA) and Corrections and Conditional Release Regulations (CCRR) Review and change to: [Employ/Employer relation exists in Section 78 and prisoners have employee status, CSC to pay top up to the full amount in the Canadian Revenue Agency for the Canada Pension Plan for each prisoner yearly;
CSC must be legislative or ordered by the Commissioner to fully reimburse all purchase for Microwaves, Toasters, & Kettles for each Unit Range for the re-heating the frozen Kosher and cold “quick-chill” served foods (drinks and mini-foods that runs out during service) since starting this cost saving program instead of the costs born currently by prisoners compounded by additional double-dipping of 30% Room and Board on top of the 80% Room and Board we pay from the orders of 1980’s pay agreements, all to heat our own food by equipment purchased by and from the prisoners own meager Inmate Wellness Fund while we are paying the full price for cable services that CSC uses without reimbursement to the IWC;
s.81 and s.84 parity funding at full-bed capacity for all qualified Healing Lodges on community Reserves;

Top list of requested CSC changes needed forthwith in order according to our 15,000 prisoner survey
Automatic Parole for all instead of Eligibility for Parole: Everyone deserves a chance to cascade and reintegrate into society. It reinforces the decisions of the Judge and Jury and saves taxpayers money better spent on Health Care & Education.
Minimum Wage: Direct the Treasury Board to set the base amount of pay at $20.00 per hour for prisoners. Ensure Canada Labour Code applies to all prisoners at all sites. Review of Section 78 CCRA: Employ/Employer relationship exists in Section 78 and prisoners have employee status. Order to comply with Minimum Wage for hourly work done according to the Minimum Wage Act with net deductions of 80% into a community bank savings account, no inmate telephone system (pay phone maintenance) deductions. Prisoners must be paid for hourly work done while abiding by Canada’s Labour Code for holidays and days worked.

Criminal Case Review Commission: At all sites to independently review and order or modify all case files and convictions with Gladue Reports to be done on all Indigenous prisoners prior to parole and any court dates.
Automatic Cascade to Lower Security: Saving taxpayer money by reviews for all to automatically be lowered in security level if institutionally charge conviction free and following their correctional plan regardless if the prisoner accepts responsibility or not. Being warehoused in multi-level sites and SRS reviewed charge conviction free must equate to an automatic security reduction for ability to cascade and transfer to another lower security site.
Cell Phones: Allow prisoners to own their own smart phones with internet access can be monitored.
Prisoner Purchases: Rescind the single ITF supplier Prototype due to ongoing price gorging, longer wait, used items sold as new, lack of variety to allow more than one (1) choice for ordering true variety of items. Multiple venders and choice, because it must not limited to single supplier… is unconstitutional. Add www.Amazon.ca as a national supplier.
CD-566-12 Personal Property of Offenders: Increase to $6,000. Prisoners must be given a voice and veto on negative changes to their personal effects, amounts, and awarded the actual replacement costs on all claims against the Crown.
Offender’s Money: Increase the amounts transferred to $2,340 annually = $90 canteen/food order every two weeks.
Health Care: Dental services increased to full-time 5-days a week, 24-hour service turnaround and to re-allow name brand designer Rx eyewear and modern electronic hearing and digital optical testing, shoe sizing/arch supports and treatments (Hepatitis C treatment $70,000) forthwith upon positive tests results by CSC Health Care, with continued CSC paid treatment until done when released into the community and re-approval for designer Rx Glasses and other treatments.
Food Made On-site: Stop the privatization of our Canadian prison complex especially the degrading food quality and return to how all meals were made on-site with more red seal certification programs (Culinary Arts) for all prisoners on-site.
Barriers: Allow unfettered access to laundry facilities during unlocked times for adequate cleaning and encourage range-to-range socializing in common areas on all ranges for creating pro-social skills development and better hygiene (toilet and sink in each room).
Life-skills Programs: Hunter Education and Ethics Development Course (fishing & trapping), First Nations 101, River Rescue Training, Boating, Winter Camping, Boreal Agriculture, Homesteading, Placer Mining (prospecting, staking & operations), Gardening, Frostbite, First Aid Level-3, Rookie Ranching, Forging, Chainsaw Operation & Maintenance, Boat Safety Courses, e-Book Publishing, Full Banking & Actual Stock Purchases to create portfolios with our own funds (long-term buy, not sell), Heavy Equipment Tickets, Business Plans with Websites, Trademarks & Licences, actual pet program, Grave Marker or Urns Creation Program and Last Will and Testimonies.
Smoking: Re-allow smoking, cannabis when legalized, and variety of smoking cessation products at all sites on the prisoner owned Canteen (cannabis brownies, lollipops).
Religions: Increase alternate faiths visits and programs starting with six full-time travelling chaplains for all Regions: Christian, Wiccan/Pagan, Buddhist, Sikh, Muslim, and Jewish.
Canteen: Full audit by independent accountants to review CSC mismanagement of prisoner funds and unaccountable Revenue Canada Agency deductions (Example: taxes deducted and paid twice, once on purchase and then again deducted without a valid tax number issued to prisoner owned Canteen).
Zero-Tolerance for CSC staff convicted of a criminal conviction while employed: DUI (Driving Under the Influence), and especially serious assault convictions or excessive use of force was used or any cruel and unusual punishment and still working.
Pathways Transition Unit: 120-day (17-weeks) UTA on approved Reserves with 25-hours weekly paid at $20 per hour (tax free) by CSC.
Public Service and Procurement
National Joint Council (NJC) is part of Public Service Canada, the Council provides a forum for consultation on workplace policies and information sharing between public service bargaining agents and the government as employer. The parties work together to resolve workplace problems and to establish terms of employment. The following committees address labour relations issues: Executive; Foreign Services Directives; Government Travel; Isolated Posts & Government Housing; Joint Employment Equity; Occupational Health & Safety; Official languages; Relocation; Service-Wide Committee on Occupational Health & Safety; Union Management Relations; and Work Force Adjustment.

Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), (Cost: $2,360,000,000).
Advertising Commissioner: Save taxpayer money by taking politics out of Government advertising by appointing an Advertising Commissioner (Cost: $2.1-million).
Canadian Shield Law: This is essential for journalists’ ability to keep their sources confidential to the proper functioning of our democracy. Our goal is to become an international leader in the protection of all whistle-blowers. Allowed leaked documents to reveal abuses of prisoners by federal agencies (Example: Canadian pardon and Canadian Residency granted for USA citizen Chelsea Manning or others).
CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation www.CBC.ca) Reform: Increase funding for both French and English and Indigenous languages provided service and programming. Ensure all new Canadian businesses have one complimentary 15-second spot of both local advertising and National advertising. Full transparency on any possible conflict of interest story with the public. Our goal is to go from the third worst funded news centres to one of the top three with enhanced whistle-blower protection laws and Canadian protection (Current: $1.06-billion increased to $2.36-billion).
CBC Recognition: Canadians receiving a National Award must be recognized with a photo and honour in a national newspaper and magazine across Canada (Military, Governor General’s Literary Awards, Order of Canada, etc.). Re-introduce the Thérèse Casgrain Volunteer Award in an honour of a leader in the struggle for women’s suffrage in Québec and expanded for each province and territory. Promote all national awards received to include a newspaper picture of the candidate with their full name, name of the award received, their city, province or territory they are from, and why awarded.
CBC VR News – Film – Sports Channels fund for 360 degree 3D filming Virtual Reality live action.
Historical Moments: October 25th, 1923, Frederick Banting and J.J.R. Macleod are the first Canadians to win a Nobel Prize, for their work that led to the discovery of Insulin.
Freedom of Information: No police force or organization exempted from Freedom of Information laws and requests. Review denied requests by federal Minister with the power to allow the full disclosure without redactions by their order, to grant and enforce the original request without redaction. 365-day Non-compliance will result in default judgement for court action. Cost set at the standard copy rate of $0.05 a page with costs waived for the incarcerated, those not working, and persons on Welfare or UI.
Freedom of the Press and Whistle-blower Act: Right not to have freedom of contact and association interfered with by private or state actions. Legal protections and safeguards to stop law enforcement agencies, for protecting sources, so long as that source was used to gather information to be disseminated to the public. No citizen must be compelled to conduct investigations on behalf of the police. Turning all journalist jail time to misdemeanor fines only. Press fall under Whistle-blower Protection laws. Media authorized to review case materials filed by both parties connected to a case without a court order after a conviction has been entered. Fundamental fairness for all sentences once entered is for public scrutiny and full transparency of court documents. For court disclosure, only the underage names of victims and the underage names of witnesses will be allowed to be blacked out. (Cost: $46-million)
Procurement: Fixing the current system to get it done right and now. It is what Canadians wants because it is the right thing to do. Wholesale change is needed for Canada’s utterly broken procurement systems. In Canada, it is unacceptably complex with numerous roadblocks and red-tape impede commercialization. Companies end of leaving because of this stagnation of new technologies and go south for their quicker commercialization. Thus, we lose thousands of valuable skilled workers and development of ideas and new modern companies in Canada. Let’s keep our skilled workers and jobs! Our plan starts at the beginning stages with a 30-day process on all orders includes a government no cancellation clause with amends to the National Ship-building and Procurement Strategy.
Streamlining our ability to buy new equipment, free of hassle, quickly, and without new government being able to cancel current military purchases once ordered and procurement has started, will be a key target and policy of our government.
No Cancellation Clause for all government military contracts so funds and contracts earmarked by current government and signed will be completed and honoured. With respect to procurement, we would revise the DPS to include a single point of accountability. In particular, this would address the accountability deficit in process with multiple departments and stakeholders. Vital equipment asked for, must be purchased and reach the forces in a timely manner. Multiple contracts, evenly distributed throughout all contractors and new contracts awarded only upon successful completion of previous ones on or near budget and more importantly, meeting actual time-frames. Contractors may actually lose their ability to bid on new contracts if they cannot meet the agreed upon deadlines and initial costs of their actual bids imposed after review of contracts. Costs to build based on averages of other countries actual costs for similar and like items. Mismanaged contracts will not receive bonuses until they have been rectified (example: Phoenix Federal Pay System Replacement).
Public Service Labour Relations Board: (Cost: $13,775,423).
Public Service Staffing Tribunal: (Cost: $5,443,445).
Public Services: Introduce a Program Review Process to make the public service more transparent and adaptive to the needs of everyone, a public service can rise to the challenges posed by growing inequality, joblessness, and climate change.
Specifically in the review process:
Provide an assessment of the effect of cuts made in recent federal budgets and omnibus bills, and restore programs that have been lost where it is in the public interest to do so (on-line polls for programs to cut or old ones to restart);
Reverse unsustainable operational budget freezes and unfair moratoriums. Example: CSC will allow smoking outdoors for offenders and inmate purchased and in-cell USB/CD/DVD owned computer systems with internet, just like many prisons in other countries to conform with both the July 1, 2016, UN Declaration that Internet Access is a Basic Human Right and the December 21, 2016, Canadian Radio-television and Tele-communications Commission declared High-Speed Internet a basic service;
Determine the economic and human costs of a citizen-centred program renewal with all First Nations;
Support adequate public employee service staffing & training to meet citizen-centred program goals;
Create permanent employment by ensuring temporary staffing agencies are used only for short-term, unanticipated work;
Enact legislation that protects all temporary workers employed by the federal government, including casual employees, temporary staffing agency employees, and students;
Review and reduce contracting out where required, with a view to redirect the anticipated savings into Canadian programs and projects in the broader public interest;
Introduce social impact “weighting” that includes a combination of price, quality, and environmental and social impact criteria as part of all decisions;
Ensure Community Benefit Agreements (CBA), include employment objectives, employment equity goals, residuals, and local content requirements are a mandatory consideration for all federal government programs and contracts above $1-million; and
Create a Scale-Up Implementation Fund to replace social impact bonds, to support and implement projects have been rigorously proven to work in other jurisdictions or on a smaller scale, publicly & transparently track project progress, and share profits with social service agencies and government.
Reporters Without Borders: Changing policies and legislation to increase Canada’s ranking from #18 to #1.
Sales Tax: Implement a Federal Sales Tax on all foreign digital subscriptions and services and review the rules so philanthropists can donate to their favourite news services for real news in crisis.
Service Industry: Escalate funding for this area starting with federal trade grants for all high-school graduates and increasing the Young Adult & Youth Care System up from age-18 to age-25. Increasing this program to include child is enrolled full-time in a post-secondary school until they graduate with their first degree which is normally at age-25 is the logical way help and assist our children.
Whistleblower Protection Laws: Enhance and strengthen Bill S-231 Journalistic Sources Protection Act. No jail legislation (Canadian Shield Law) and to not be required to hand over data, recordings, etc. to police or the courts if protecting another source to ensure transparency in government and services (Cost: $10-million).
Transport (Aircraft, Boats, Trains, Rail, and Space) and Industry
Transport Canada (TC) uses EMS standards. Transport Canada incorporates environmental considerations in all decision-making to fulfill the department’s sustainable development strategy. Working with airports and airlines to minimize environmental effects of de-icing fluids, working with Environment Canada & industry to more effectively manage road salt; participating with ICAO’s Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) concerning aircraft emissions, noise and land use planning. Ongoing Contaminated Sites Management Program. The Moving on Sustainable Transportation (MOST) program supports projects that educate, raise awareness and provide tools to understand, promote, and encourage sustainable transportation, such as neighbourhood transit passes, idle-free workplaces, and school walking routes. Development of strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from freight transportation; information on fuel consumption, Urban Transportation Showcase Program aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through showcasing demonstrations in communities across Canada (Cost: $1,537,388,434).
Canadian Transportation Agency (CTA), responsible for the economic regulation of transportation in Canada. The agency requires all applications for new railway lines, modifications to existing railway lines, disputed railway crossings at grade, grade separation, utility crossings and private crossings be accompanied by an environment impact assessment. Amend the Railway Safety Act so the government is able to intervene for the safety of all Canadians for pedestrian, cyclists, and motorist alike. Ensure previous or newly removed crossings be replaced by overhead or tunnel crossings can accommodate the same motorists and/or pedestrians and cyclists at the full expense of the rail-lines and fully maintained by the rail-line as they are classified as private property (Cost: $30,660,522).
National Research Council of Canada is the Government of Canada’s agency for research and development. The Council works with partners and clients to meet industrial and societal needs, in accordance with the National Research Council Act. Technical and advisory services are available to assist enterprises solve technical problems. The following are some examples of the specialized services available: analytical chemistry services, calibration services, cold regions technologies & services, molecular biology services, environmental hydraulics services, marine performance & evaluation services, flight test and evaluation services, surface transportation services, medical diagnostics, nuclear magnetic resonance services, and protein purification services (Cost: $889,100,440).
Laurentian Pilotage Authority (LPA) was created under the Pilotage Act and has the following objectives: to operate a pilotage service in identified Canadian waters.
Pacific Pilotage Authority Canada operates pilotage services in Canadian waters in and around British Columbia.
St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation (SLSMC); Standards Council of Canada (SCC), (Cost: $9,729,000); Statistics Canada (Cost: $442,243,678); Transportation Accident Investigation and Safety Board of Canada (Cost: $30,509,431); VIA Rail Canada Inc. (Cost: $439,383,000); Canada Post Corporation, a federal commercial Crown corporation responsible for Canada’s postal system (Cost: $22,210,000).
Affordable Fare Structure: For a fair transit pay system streamlined for all communities with the elimination of one-way passes and multi-zones and implement 24-hour service in all communities. We propose the implementation of national transit bus and subway standards: $10-Day Pass, $15-Weekend Pass, $60-Week Pass (7-day), and $5-Holiday Pass. With children, student, and elderly rates at 50% off.
Airports: Approve building, runway extensions, and IFR at local airports to alleviate city congestion and access for small communities (Example: Re-open the Tripastite Agreement and allow for the forthwith runway expansion at YTZ Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport - Toronto’s Island Airport and allow jets). Ensure Aviation Radar is at all major airports in Canada. Superhydrophobic material (water beads up) coatings to be standard for all new aircrafts to assist in elimination of ice-buildup. Increased funding for dedicated Heliports in small rural and harbour communities.
Canada Post and Canada Post in Prisons: All mail at all prison sites the responsibility of Canada Post for prisoners to receive and send out. Canada Post will ensure mail at all federal, provincial/territorial prisoner’s mail once deposited with postage is actually picked-up and leaves all the sites without tampering or shredding by CSC Officers. Is a service for everyone and resume all door-to-door deliveries and services. Community Mailboxes used must have adequate video surveillance coverage to ensure those tampering with mail are caught and punished. Reinstate door-to-door delivery across Canada, initiate new autonomous vehicle drone delivery, seven-days-a-week full service for pick-up and delivery. Implement new drive-thru parcel and letter centres across Canada are 24/7 with self-serve kiosks that customers can weigh, measure, pay, label, and deposit in a secure bin. Include dressing room where customers can try on their online clothing purchases before taking them home. Drone delivery service (Cost: $0 redirect quarterly profits).
Canada Post Corporation Act (1981): Updated power for police to seek warrants for any mail in transit through Canada Post. The warrants must be treated like wiretaps for privacy standards. Canada Post authorized to offer Canadians a safe, legal supply of all Canadian made drugs with full decriminalization and access.
Canada Air Transport Security Agency: Streamline services, transit times, and accountability oversight (Cost: $598,286,200).
Canadian Air Carriers: Mandated all Canadian Air Carriers operating overseas install Air Shield (laser missile defence system) for each aircraft travelling outside Canada. Fast-track new airports for all Provincial and Territorial communities do not have road access and will strive to fix this ongoing transit problem (Cost: $100-million).
Canadian Safety Testing: Funding made available (non-budgetary) for a new facility or upgrading existing facilities for Canadian testing and on higher safety standards so we no longer will have to rely solely upon USA safety tests for our citizens.
Dangerous Driving Causing Death: Review and amend the laws to allow speeding causing death as meeting the criminal fault component for a Crown charge and conviction.
Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV): We plan to increase the safety standards for our citizens and increase the number of branches for services for testing centres.
Motor Vehicle Act: Amend to allow the Justice to set appropriate sentences including fines, driving prohibition, community service and/or jail time, without a maximum or minimum sentence restrictions. By-law fines for fighting will now fall under this act and paid before their Driver Licence and/or vehicle insurance is renewed. A temporary 30-day licence renewal will be authorized to allow work and daily insurance only allowed until payment of all outstanding fines are paid in full.
Driver Apps: Instead of distracting drivers, using apps can help drivers stay focused on finding their way (Siri).
Driver’s Licence – Bike Laws and Enforcement: Legislation tabled Vulnerable Road User Law to ensure equal protection for cyclists, pedestrians, and motorcyclists when their struck by drivers. It will include minimum fines rather than jail time, offer awareness, and offer guidance to all law enforcement when drivers are at fault and vice-versa. Reporting all hostile drivers through a program like www.closecalldatabase.com will impact insurance rates for verbal abuse. Funding intersection bump-outs to shorten crosswalks (multi-coloured options) and make vehicles slow down by narrowing of the street; bike boxes are areas painted at intersections to create a space for cyclists to converge at the front of traffic waiting for a green light and help keep bikes from mingling with auto traffic at the start of a signal change; bike specific signals; protected bike lanes; neighborhood greenways; crowd-sourced reporting with sensors in bikes and cars for data sharing with position, speed, distance and route; and better infrastructure.
Driver’s Licence – Driving Laws Improved: Elimination of Drunk Parking and Impaired Parking Suspects with improved driving laws modified “care and control” of a motor vehicle, and ticketing those smoking alone while operating a vehicle. Those not technically driving, sitting and waiting for a tow truck or taxi, use of a motor vehicle for a majority of innocent purposes (staying warm and out of the elements) must not attract the stigma of a criminal conviction, arrest, nor trial. Improve and update to include bicycles (impaired driving ticketing and impounding) while removing water vehicles without a motor or sail (examples: canoes, inner-tubes, rafts). Those drinking alcohol immediately after an accident will be considered drunk before and during an accident. No longer allowed as a defence to cover-up the fact of a drunk driver.
Driver’s Licence – Fines: Source a Canadian national standard on fines for distracted drivers in all provinces and territories (using cellphones or computers, make-up, shaving) while driving (excluding listening to music) and next business day court appeal and review of the traffic offence and fines if disputed with appeals.
Driver’s Licence - Standardized: Standardized licence for each province and territory. Provinces and territories governments must ensure they provide access for all owners of all legal motor vehicle(s) the ability to insure any vehicles sold in Canada for fire, theft, third-party disability, and repairs including full replacement value or be liable themselves for not providing it. Tough new mandating training. New federal mandated training levels of 100-hours, vehicle maintenance, for all trucks: backing-up, turning, loading bay training, log-books, hitching and unhitching trailers, stopping distance, sharp turns, preventative safety, and scales. Saving lives is a priority by our government. National standards standardized for statistically reliable driving tests to be administered not just for aging drivers but all drivers at various intervals and all types of vehicle classes. Readily available training and retraining programs for all adults, as codified by the Young Drivers of Canada program. A graduated licensing system for adult drivers to be determined not by age but by test score, so drivers who are only comfortable with driving in daylight hours or on city streets but not major highways, can continue to drive with those restrictions. That the playing field be level for all drivers. Licences are renewed in five (5) year increments starting at age sixty-five (65) and not every two (2) years.
Driver’s Licence - Suspensions: Immediately remove all driver suspensions for non-payment of fines and delinquent family maintenance. To pay those fees normally requires employment with a valid Driver’s Licence; instead, suspension must be put on the Canadian Passport renewals so funds are not used for vacations or travel abroad until delinquent account are paid in full. If a Canadian is abroad during suspension, an emergency passport may be issued once for the Canadian to allow a return back to Canada to resume payments.
Driver’s Licence - Upper age limit removed for all drivers: Mini-road tests for graduated de-licensing will test vision and response times. Every person found at fault in an accident will be required to do a mini-road test and could result in remedial driving lessons and to retake the road test within a specific time-frame.
Drivers: Campaigning the public to be made aware it is irresponsible not to drive a self-driving or self-correcting car. It will help increase innovation in technology with automakers when citizens demand this new function.
Levels-of-Autonomy: New classification system for the definition of vehicle autonomy and plate colour (Cost: $1-million):
Level-1: Driver Assistance: Some automated driving aids (no coloured borders);
Level-2: Partial Automation: Large suite of driving aids (1 coloured border);
Level-3: Conditional Automation: Fully automated functionality (2 coloured borders);
Level-4: High Automation: Human input optional (3 coloured borders); and
Level-5: Full Automation: Fully robotic vehicles where humans are cargo (4 coloured borders).
Drivers Safety: As a socially responsible political party, a ban on all “Protection Bars” on all vehicles unless they have a soft rubber inflatable bumper attached to them for all roads with sidewalks to eliminate injury and death on all Canadian roads; increase roundabouts; improve emergency medical treatment, care and response times; and lower the blood-alcohol count to 0.02 percent nationally. Improved driver’s education by including the “Dutch Reach” where drivers must open their door with their right hand.
Walking and Texting: Fines by photo-radar while crossing the street set at $35 per occurrence to discourage pedestrians from ignoring traffic and being at least 50% at fault if an accident occurs with a vehicle as they are not aware of their surroundings.
Driverless Cars and Airplane Legislation: Responsibility goes to the one who initiated the vehicle whom is also fully licensed to operate the autonomous vehicle as if they were driving or operating the vehicle. On-demand driverless vehicle legislation to protect passengers against hackers. All driver’s licences will have new endorsements including one for drone operations and use. Automated Vehicle Supply Chain created, maintained, and headquartered in Canada (Cost: $2,762,866 to $10-million).
Drone Legislation: City and rural zones, operation lanes, parks, restricted access and no-fly zones, day-night operations. Plan for 7 km from airports, allows airport security and local police to take down drones that pose a threat for passenger safety (Costs: None).
Drones: Clear set of rules for all commercial and hobby drones in Canada and the transportation of live (human or animal) cargo by any form of drone.
Emergency Management Agency: Creating an Emergency Management Framework to develop plans to look after those who care always hardest hit, seniors. Integration and coordination dedicated for those with any disability, home care, or residential care facility. Streamlining services for improved access to emergency shelters, transportation, communications, funds, and ensure a safe return home after clean-up and repairs of their primary residence.
Ferry Services: Ensure ferry services are a part of the highway system and they need to be treated as such with overriding oversight of the Minister of Transport to enforce corrective changes to needed access schedules and reasonable fares or they will become part of Crown Assets and no longer allowed privatization.
Flight Appeal Process: An appeal process put in place for those being bumped. One is accessible and offers a ruling prior to the flight leaving. Those who purchase and airline tickets, must in effect own their designated seats on the flight in question and must not be forced to give up their seat, no matter what. Just like buying a material item, you don’t have to sell it if you don’t want to, regardless of what is offered.
Flight Cleanliness: Flights must have all blankets, pillows, seats, and all related items sanitized by steam are touched by another passenger and are not one-use. Curbing the spread of diseases must start prior to boarding any passenger.
Flight Bumped: Strengthen the bumped, missed, and delayed flights policies to ensure passengers have meal voucher every six hours of the delay, a new ticket for their next flight, and accommodation provided especially for those underage and travelling alone.
Flight Charges Add-on’s: Limit “drip pricing” and make it illegal for “mandatory” add-on and also legislate there be no over-booking of passengers and a no passenger bumping policy for any flight in Canada.
Flight Minimum Canadian Aviation Standards: Ensure if a passenger is bumped, then they are all compensated at $10,000 minimum cash forthwith and a new full airline ticket including airport fees and taxes (whichever is greater) which would include their travelling companions (spouse and children), and all are all rebooked together in a timely manner. This must be provided within 6-hours of the flight scheduled leaving and on the same day so the passenger is able to re-book on another airliner to make it to their destination. If a spouse or child is bumped, then the entire family will be bumped and each will receive the $10,000 cash forthwith so it can be used for rebooking trip on another airliner.
Lane Splitting Legalized across Canada: Just like California, USA, guidelines must be included in all motor vehicle handbooks. Lane splitting keeps riders safer by reducing their exposure to rear-end collisions, and it helps ease congestion by effectively removing motorcycles from the traffic lanes.
Maximum Revenue Entitlement: Cap on how much railways can earn hauling grain. Possible 2-year phase-out of this profit-limiting device, and ability to offer “express” haulage for farmers willing to pay a premium for faster service. This only initiated after farmer consultation to guarantee grain will make it to their markets in an expected time-frame and not delayed for “express” haulages.
Merchant Marine Status: Update, Review and Inspect all registered in Canada (175) and those in other countries (206).
Minimum Performance Standards: Transportation safety items starting with Brake Pads (BMW disc brakes as a minimum quality standard for Canadian vehicles). Promote winter tires (October 1st to March 31st) and snow chain rules.
Motor Vehicle Act: Amend all out of date cellphone usage for drivers, to be allowed to engage a navigational system related directly to the safe operation of the motor vehicle through a hand-held electronic device. Plus, any death resulting in unsafe operation of a motor vehicle, drivers charged criminally automatically, a court will decide not the police (Cost: $1-million).
National Drivers Licence and National Identification Card: (Cost: $1-million).
No-Fly List: Fix the No-Fly List to clarify persons on it with a current photo, birthplace, and date of birth. For Canadians to make it easier and quicker (within 8-hours) to get taken off the No-Fly List, and to challenge and be fairly compensated if their names were maliciously added to the No-Fly List and have this list available for all Canadians prior to booking flights with pre-approvals and pre-cleared to board mandatory for all ticket sales. Buying a round ticket package and not able to clear security and board the place because of a mistaken identity and being on a No-Fly List without notification nor challenge to appeal the listing is unfair to any Canadian (Cost: $10-million).
Parking: Creating a national standard for the minimum accessibility requirements for disabled parking. Example: Disabled designated vehicle in a designated parking spot require adequate room for a ramp to be deployed on the passenger side of the vehicle and room for a wheelchair to go down the ramp to street level, and room for a wheelchair to exit the parking spot (double spaces).
Pilot Random Drug Testing: Random Drug, Marijuana and Alcohol testing conducted on any and all Pilots and Crew at any stage of a carrier’s service of operations.
Railways: CN-Canadian National Railways, CP-Canadian Pacific Railway Company and any other light-rail companies ferrying passengers will need to find ways to operate dedicated timed passenger rail lines without interruption. Creating transit hubs throughout Canada to connect passengers and workers to and from their destinations will require a new revamp of the current transit systems and find creative ways of overcoming these hurdles will be done with conventions and a planning committee with representatives from all organizations dealing with passengers.
Recall Orders Mandatory: Legislation put forward to make stronger recall orders mandatory and make companies liable if they operate or sell vehicles in Canada that endanger Canadians and problems reported in the media are not mandatorily fixed by the parent company.
Transport Appeal Tribunal of Canada: (Cost: $1,419,871).
Transport Canada: Allow any helicopter and all HeliJets to land and take-off at any Hospital or clinic if transporting or retrieving a patient under contract or in need of immediate healthcare services. Rule changes on aircraft type used for patients will go into effect after contracts expire with all aircraft in use by contracts falling under the “Grandfather” clause. Ensure pilots are licenced with the oversight of Transport Canada and not the airlines for all testing and certification of qualifications. All airplanes will have a one page quick references for emergencies including switching on APU (Alternative Power Unit) as the first step in the event of engine failures. And, all pilots are trained to land in water if they fly over water, as they must be trained to ditch into water in the aircraft they are flying and operating for certification.
Transport Canada Services: Craft federal laws for taxi, limousine and ride-sharing services (examples: Uber, Lyft, Limousines, Shuttles, Drop-off and Pick-up Services) with regulatory solutions for universal fares, insurance, fees, and allow changes to prices to meet market demand. Chauffeur Driver’s Licence, insurance ($1-million per passenger) that applies to every Chauffeur in Canada with increased penalties including 24-hour (1st offence) or 240-hour (2nd offence) loss of licence if caught. Examples: $70,000 a year licence for a company to operate in a city, plus six cents per km trip tax, and charge a minimum of $3.25 for a ride. The driver will have to have approved proper insurance (ride-sharing) $2-million minimum and an annual vehicle inspection and a criminal records check (this does not exclude new drivers with past criminal convictions). Our solution is to eliminate all taxi licence plate fees within our first year and buy-back all taxi licence plates in that time. All taxi and ride-sharing services required to have the same commercial insurance and pay the same low and incorporated operating fee split and paid to the location of pick-up and drop-off, all will have an affordable business licence to operate in their province or territory will be an added endorsement on all driver’s licences issued.
Transportation - Rail: Public Safety Transportation – National Safety Management System: $34-million to $42-million. Decommission all old cars forthwith (CP & CN). All goods shipped on rails will be data based for public access with what is shipped, when, where, to, and from. Create planned routes, environment assessments, and the required Indigenous approvals for suspended and dual magnetic-rail dedicated passenger lines for all provinces and territories.
Transportation Strategy: Create a national plan to include and guide our Building Canada Plan for all Canadians. This will include but is not limited to: dedicated magnetic-rail, high speed rail, transport hubs, internet access, digital television, bridges, paving 4,800 km northern roads as new all-weather roads, new airports, new deep sea ports, and water travel lock-expansions for modern shipping container ships to have environmentally safe access to all our great lakes.
Towing Vehicles: We understand towing a vehicle may occur to clear streets, locate delinquent payments of tickets and unsafe drivers. The destination of the tow will be at the owner’s discretion if present. If the driver or owner wants the vehicle towed to their residence or work location, it must be towed to that location, not the tow company lot or impound lot. This includes any driver that is detained by the police, prior to being taken away, the driver must be asked if the vehicle must be taken other than the impound lot or the rightful owner or an immediate family member must be allowed adequate time and the release of the keys to retrieve the vehicle and return it to its proper parking spot.
Typing Aviation Ionic Wind Engines - Electro-aerodynamic thrust: Electric engine propulsion without any moving parts. Next generational commercial aviation engines to power passenger jet aircrafts at high speeds. Negatively charged electrons accelerated at sub-light speeds that collide with air particles to accelerate the atmosphere they collide with to generate advanced thrusting capabilities for an aircraft engine would create a by-product of O2 that would be captured, storage, and used to add to our depleted ozone to patch the atmospheric tears holes in our planet’s atmosphere. Design and typing for University and College challenge testing and application for commercial airlines (Cost: $25-million).
UFO (Unidentified Flying Object): Open the Grey Book to the public of all sightings and contact documentation, a Canadian Survival Policy and Procedure Manual listing all known species for any extra-terrestrial locations, contacts and known treaties.
Underwater Egress Training: Create a national and recognized training facility in Canada (Cost: $10-million).
Vehicle Insurance Caps: Imposed on all minor injuries at $5,000 indexed to inflation with pain-and-suffering fixed at $30,000 and a deductible. Injuries must be deemed to be permanent or catastrophic.
VIA Rail Canada: New mandate to refurbish all existing railway lines that are not in use and in use with new upgrades to Light-Rail High-Speed passenger dedicated only rail lines. Re-connecting all our small communities with a reliable light-rail high-speed lines are dedicated 100% to only passenger service and thus increasing reliability on local public transportation and to become a go-to trip destinations for visitors coming to Canada. All refurbished lines will become at Crown owned and operated for continuation of services 365.25-days per year and not allowed to be sold off to become less than 51% Crown owned and operated. Communities must not ever fear being cut-off from visiting any government services or health care on a daily basis.
Zero-Emissions: From a Zero-emissions Transition to a Zero-emission Vehicles Now Policy for 2050. Implement Zero Sales Tax on all new zero emission vehicles to help increase this market, 3s charging stations at all vehicle dealerships and parking lots.
X-Safe Environmental Spray: Spray onto rubber and wiring that rodents like Martins do not like to eat to save electrical damage to vehicles and equipment.
Space Exploration
Canadian Space Agency (CSA) was established in 1989, and is responsible for coordinating all civil, space-related policies & programs on behalf of the Government of Canada. Scientific research and industrial development in earth observation, space science & exploration, satellite communications, space awareness, learning. RADARSAT International (RSI) develops products and services demanded by world markets. RADARSAT-1, the first Canadian commercial Earth Observation (EO) satellite, is uniquely capable of responding to disasters around the world. The system can support the operational mapping and monitoring of natural disasters in four critical ways: prevention, preparedness, emergency response, and recovery. Moreover, the development of the high performance RADARSAT-2, launched in 2007, further enhances Canada’s competitive position. RADARSAT-2 offers improved quality of data images to meet the growing world demand of Earth observation information. The SCISAT satellite is used in ozone depletion research. The RADARSAT Constellation is in development and proposed launch date of 2018, and will provide total coverage of Canada’s land and oceans via a three-satellite configuration.
Historical Moments: September 29th, 1962, Alouette 1, the first Canadian satellite (and the first satellite constructed by a country other than the USSR or the United States), is launched. Alouette’s mission to study the ionosphere lasted for 10-years but remains in orbit today.
Canadian Space Agency (CSA): Canada will lead and the world will follow with our ambitious goal to be known as a world leader in off-world colonization, interplanetary space travel, and exploration (Initial Cost: $3,588,480,928 with a new budget of $22-billion).
Canadian Astronaut Training School (CATS): To increase revenues for the CSA, open the door forthwith to the public who want to pay for their own hobby in astronaut training at our new federal funded school. The course trainings offered year round and will have official start and end dates for modules. Re-testing and full modules may be taken individually at any time for a reasonable fee. Assist in funding R&D for manned Canadian rovers and spacesuits on the moon and beyond.
CATS: New school to offer a comprehensive basic astronaut training certification package in Canadian Standards and International Protocols, survival training, radio operator’s certificate, use and repair of a variety of spacesuits, and training for emergencies in space or on other worlds and environments. R&D regolith (lunar dust) decontamination techniques. With new private companies going into space, it is logical to cash-in on those dedicated people planning on going into space regardless of their training or qualifications. Colonists will eventually be everyday people and we believe should know basic survival skills where help is nearly nonexistent. Plus, individual targeted specialty training for an additional cost per module as they become available and are requested (example: growing crops in a greenhouse, on the moon). All those that wish to pursue a career in space exploration and colonization, must be allowed astronaut training in Canada if they wish to pay for the training themselves as a hobby. Let’s make Canada the go-to place for those who want training certification for all fields in space colonization to become a true multi-planetary species.
Minister’s Space Advisory Board (SAB): Undertake stakeholder consultations and advise on the development of new strategy. Focus on using space to drive broader economic growth by supporting talent, research and entrepreneurship within the space industry and seek to leverage the benefits of space for all Canadians. Whoever gets there first, makes the rules. Starting with an increase to the current budget for divisions: Space Science, Space Technologies, Space Programs, and General Operations (Current: $500-million) we estimate an addition of 161,500 new jobs will be created per year. Large increase to original budget upon attaining Zero National Debt to create an actual space foothold for Canada and its allies. Our long-term goal is to lay the foundation for large-scale colonization of all planets, non-planets (Pluto’s), and moons in our solar system up to and including Xochitl and ensuring Earth to the Moon and back by daily launches is the CSA new mandated goal with guaranteed long-term funding and Office of Planetary Protection to modernize decontamination protocols. Legislative a 10-year CSA Chief Officer and employees to ensure stability in the organization to obtain all long-term goals.
Space Task Group: For a truly transformative vision for humanity, CSA required fulfill the following mandates within four (4) years, to create realistic completion timelines (12-years), to design, build, and start launching the identified following long-term priorities for Canada’s new space program strategies:
Create a Rocket Program and assist commercial rocket pads across Canada to launch satellites and other items (moon & space station supplies) into high-orbit (Maritime Launch Services Ltd.) along with a Mass Driver System, an electromagnetic accelerator 110 km in length, fully designed, built, and operated by SyFy Industries Canada would use pulsed magnetic fields to accelerate heavy payloads and spacecraft’s (200 person colony ships) into orbital or near-orbital velocity, using a ramp at 45° with rocket assist with multiple daily launches at extremely low launch cost reusable re-entry vehicles, a relatively ultra-low-cost solution for interplanetary travel (Cost: $2-billion);
Engineering Canadian Skyhook or Space Elevator(s) anchored in Canada (on a mobile platform), created with Canadian developed carbon nano-tubes ‘micro lattice’ arranged in a hexagonal honeycomb Titanium-composite lattice to launch items and protect human cargo into orbit for low costs (Cost: $20-billion);
Canada’s solo stepping-stone to create two permanently manned Canadian scientific moon bases. Canada’s own Shackleton project and then Equator Thunderbird project with a Microwave and Radio Telescopes on both sides of the moon within four years. These made initially of four modules, each with a forty-person permanent crew to build platforms capable of servicing and launching a variety of deep-space planetary exploration and colonization vehicles for all the local planets, asteroids, and moons initially in our solar system. Manned moon bases is our stepping-stone to the colonization of all planets and moons in our solar system. Mining and construction by creating modern habitats underground is expected at the base or sides of moon craters. EVA’s will all be video and audio recorded and sent back to Earth to be uploaded automatically onto You Tube, unaltered. This will include Lunar deep mining. Beyond the moon will initially be a one-way journey for most of these Canadians (Cost: $101-billion);
Adopt a proactive Soil and Atmospheric Sample Collection Program and remote telescope for each planet, dwarf plant, and moon; to include a minimum of one launch and sample return from: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn (starting with the moon Enceladu to discover the heat source and likely make the first discovery of life beyond Earth), Uranus, Neptune, and large non-planets like Pluto up to 1,000 AU (AU is distance from Earth to the sun) and other orbital bodies with self replicator 3-D printer satellites and rovers (Cost: $1-billion);
Earth science is a part of CSA “core mission” to space and it is a “hard science.” Study ocean acidification driven by Climate Change (Cost: $50-million a year);
Research and Development: Invest in other technologies for manned space exploration: habitats, mining, agriculture, cryogenics, processing, solar sails, ion engines, cesium stockpiling, perovskite tandem solar cells, neutrino engines, proto-type warp drives, multi-user bio-suits (articulated hard-shelled spacesuits), and Universities and Colleges encouraged to take part in the Cubesats Program, and automatically become a part of the Canadian Space Agency with at least one Cubesats kit launched complimentary by the CSA from Canada per University or College (Cost: $1-billion);
Canadian Space Station & University: Build and launch in eight years based upon Deep Space Nine design around the moon as Canada’s own Lunar orbit high-altitude space station and starship assembly facility and university (Cost: $102-billion);
Canada Balloon Program: create an educational program for all Canadians, Space Camp, and Tourists to spend time, photo the curvature of the Earth, and learn about CSA (Cost: $500-million);
Canadian Spacesuits: Easy access, articulated joints, carbon helmets, boots & neck brace (Cost: $1-million each);
Beamed Microwave Propulsions: For light-sails used to accelerate starships up to 20% the speed of light (Cost: $30-billion);
Exoplanet-Star-Shield: 30-meter diameter Star-Shield working in tandem with a 12-meter diameter High Definition Space Telescope (Cost: $1-billion); and
Increase the Rotation of Venus: From 2-days a year to 300+ and terraforming the planet for human colonization with ice re-directed and bombarded from the ice ring belt. To type and prove in space, a variety of space redirection technologies. Deployed by Canada forthwith and available if our planet requires planetary collision assistance (Cost: $1-billion).
Space X Funding: Invest in start-ups like SyFy Industries Canada, to assist and create multiple space green industry manufacturing and a variety of experimental and tried-and-true launching facilities across Canada with 4-year interest free loans and an C-X-Prize rewards program for Canadian non-government achievements in space (Cost: $350-million).
Tantalum Mines Support: To mine the mineral pollux (pollucite) for new ion-engine propellants and fund new engine developments for space travel (Electro-Magnetic).
X-Lander Explorer Dolphins: Seven (7) dolphin underwater explorer vehicles with people to Europa, Enceladus, Ganymede, Titan, Dione, and Pluto. Getting onto the ice, descending to bottom, obstacle avoidance (meteoritec impact debris) and samples.
People will colonize other worlds and one day at night, point proudly to a sparkling star in the sky and say to their children, “See that star? I used to live there on Earth, the third planet circling their sun they call Sol. Our ship came from a place called Canada.”

Prepared text of the 2023 Throne Speech: “A Time For Change”
[Introducer 50-words]: To open the first sitting of the first session of the 44rd Parliament of Canada, December 4, 2023, I present a former truly 16-year wrongfully incarcerated prisoner, DNA scientifically excluded, the Right Honourable Kelvin Kingsbury Purdy, a proud Métis, a most beautiful mind and dreamer, our Prime Minister of Canada.
Meegwetch [(Merci-thank you): gift pouch of good tobacco]. Honourable Senators, Members of Parliament in the House of Commons, They, Mesdames, et Messieurs. As the representative of Her Majesty the Queen, I am pleased to be here to deliver the Speech from the Throne. I would like to thank first our Algonquin First Nations, for allowing us the use of your traditional territories for our Canadian Parliament. Canada has many problems, I will be respectfully seeking your thoughts on how to solve them.
A warm welcome to those of you who are returning to your duties as parliamentarians, including those who are returning after an absence. Know that your experience is valued and will be relied upon by the members who are newly elected. Your enthusiasm and fresh ideas will serve your country well.
A little about ourselves… busy Beavers who desire a better country. Our government will introduce legislation with the initial focus is on reducing taxpayer expenses and eliminating Canada’s National Debt in 10-years by:
Ordering the Military Core of Engineers to address needed water, housing and sanitation on all Reserves;
Addition to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms: To enshrine the rights of all Indigenous. Then, rescinding the Indian Act, (April 12, 1876). To assist in self-government of all nations, viewed as distinct societies as they were first on this continent by providing relevant services in the language most predominant in particular areas, regionally;
Taxpayer Rights Charter: Fair and Progressive Taxation at a 17% Flat Income Tax (10% after 10-years), 16% Small Business Tax (9% after 10-years), 15% Large Business Tax (8% after 10-years), 14% Incorporated Business Tax (7% after 10-years), and all allowed a 1% hybrid deduction or 2% all electric vehicles deduction;
Climate Change Accountability: National Harmonized Carbon Tax (HCT) set at $170 a tonne, Carbon Polluter Tax (0-10%), and Air Quality set at 47 ppm.;
Removing red tape by streamlined policies to eliminate waste for better efficiency;
Transparency with enhanced government oversight and powers to enforce corrective changes and not just recommend; and
Shifting Fiscal Year to January 1st.
(Total New Tax Revenues: $164-billion), with this we can pay 10% of the National Debt and fulfill all our platform objectives.
To assist those in the justice system, prisoners, and reduce long-term taxpayer costs, immediately:
Restorative Justice Reform (Smart on Crime = Right on Crime): National standards and fixed fee-for-services;
National Legal Aid: Services with equal funding and pay for Defence Counsels as Crown Prosecutors; 24/7 court services with evening shifts to reduce the backlog; Appoint judges from pre-cleared list of Justice candidates by creating a public national registry for any application for the appointment to be a judge; and 7-day court fast-tracking of criminal cases;
Fully Legalize and Decriminalize Cannabis (marijuana) and Personal Use Hard Drug Possessions: Treating as misdemeanors and mandate treatment as Health Care addiction if public Health Services are used to reduce future costs to Legal Services and policing;
Gun violence life sentences;
Prisoner Trade Programs: In-cell computers with monitored internet, smart cell phones, Tattoo program, increased cell effects, enforcing hourly pay for work done by prisoners according to the Minimum Wage Act, and Canada’s labour laws, 80% deducted into a community registered Savings Account, random Food Inspectors and Bait Program, and a full independent Administrative Review conducted on every prisoner file with an independent Justice grievance system;
Prisoner Firefighting and Military Training: An alternative to costly prison sentences to assist in rebuilding efforts within Canada; and
Prison Reform: With a paradigm shift towards Smart Justice starting with Automatic Parole instead of Eligibility for Parole. We believe everyone deserves at least one chance at their parole. When their time served is done, Kick Them Out! This reaffirms the Judge and Jury’s decision and makes it in-line with Statutory Release, saving billions of tax dollars redirected towards provincial-territorial Health Care services and education.
To increase money into your pocket, create more jobs, services, and opportunities, we can order:
National Minimum Living Wage: $20 per hour, where everyone can afford living and paying their taxes (Why $20? In the USA: Washington, California and over a dozen other states, their minimum wage is $15 American and converts to $20 Canadian, so let us Canadians be a little bit better than the United States of America, and trump Trump);
Improved Infrastructure Technologies: Suspended passenger dedicated 600 km/hr.+ dual-magnetic-rail connecting all provinces and territories, converting all nuclear plants to fifth generation nuclear energy plants (safe disposal using waste and weapons grade materials), Smart Roads, recharging stations, re-paving all our secondary roads;
24-hour 7-day Child Care ($2 per hour per child in all schools) working with our farmers and Agri-Food Canada for a National Nutritional School Meal Program;
Grant-An-Education: Free post-secondary education, and paying off all outstanding federal student debts with an agreement of equal time work and taxes in Canada for each day of education to reduce the current brain draining syndrome: Canadians going and working abroad (Cost: $17-billion);
National Housing: To help our own that are struggling by first opportunity into the immigration program Welcome Home with an increase to 1,014,000 from 300,000), community tax assessment caps at 3% maximum;
Stronger Animal Rights, Artificial Intelligence Rights, and Water Rights (water out better than water in);
Military Increasing & Upgrading 3X: 160,000-troops, 150,000-Reserves, 20-new deep water ports & services for selected harbour towns, hydrogen powered fleet, Canadian built Combat Aircrafts, upgrading to 20,000 UN Task Force, Space Force, and increased retirement lifetime veteran benefits;
Health Care Reform: For broader spectrum of care for prescription drugs, dental, vision, mental wellness, long-term care, and to shorten wait-times to 4-hour Canadian standard; and
Canadian Space Agency: Increased funding, mandates, and goals: magnetic & rocket launch pads, sky-hook, permanent moon bases, Canadian space station, by laying in Canada, the foundation for large scale space colonization.
Honourable Members of the Senate and Members of Parliament in the House of Commons;
May Divine Providence guide you in your deliberations and make you faithful custodians of the trust bestowed upon you.
Now is a time for change.
All My Relations. [1,000-words]
