We intend to lay

charges of fraud

September 14, 2009

Today at10:00 am we went to Ontario Court of Justice 279 Wel-

lington Street, Kingston Ontario and set a date for commencing a

proceeding for swearing to an information under the

Criminal Code of Canada.

We have set a date to lay the information and are currently

in the process of drafting the document. We intend to lay

charges of fraud on Oct 6th, 2009 in Kingston.

Individuals that are to be charged will include: local councillors,

members of a local activists group, members of a national activists

groups, and individual members of certain health related groups.

This process will only cover the aspects as they are related to the

fraud in question that occurred in Kingston between February

2007 and March 2008.

R.S., 1985, c. C46, s. 380; R.S., 1985, c. 27 (1st Supp.), s. 54; 1994, c. 44, s. 25; 1997, c. 18, s.

26; 2004, c. 3, s. 2.

As a direct result of our work in the Kingston file this is an in-dictable offence as the value of the subjectmatter ofthe offence exceeds five thousand dollars .

The possible outcome is jail time for those involved and the follow-ing is taken under consideration.

380.1 (1) Without l imiting the generality of sec-tion 718.2, where a court imposes a sentence foran offence referred to in sections 380, 382,382.1 and 400, it shall consider the following asaggravating circumstances:

(a) the value of the fraud committed exceededone mil l ion dollars;

(b) the offence adversely affected, or had thepotential to adversely affect, the st abil ity of theCanadian economy or financial system or any fi -nancial market in Canada or investor confidencein such a financial market;

(c) the offence involved a large number of vic-tims; and

(2) The court shall not consider as mitigating cir-cumstances the offenders employment, employ-ment ski l ls or status or reputation in the commu-nity if those circumstances were relevant to,contributed to, or were used in the com mission ofthe offence.

The charge will be filed by me (with a lot of outside counsel, whichis where most of our funding is going). Once these charges are laid;additional legal action will be pursued in other municipalities alongwith the class action. We are currently looking at proceeding withsimilar charges in London and Owen Sound. Additional actionsmay be taken outside of Ontario.

Once the process has been started, I will have the choice of follow-

ing through with the process. As the charge is an indictable of-fence, we will not be paying the legal costs of this action. The crownis required by law to take over the case which makes this processthe most cost effective and not subjected to outside influence or de-lays.

Generally, allegations of criminal activity are reported to the police. After the police investigate, they may lay criminal charges. How-ever, anyone who has reasonable grounds to believe that a personhas committed an offence may lay an information in writing andunder oath before a Justice of the Peace.

When the information is presented to the court by a private citizen,

it is then referred to either a provincial court judge or a designated justice of the peace, who holds a special hearing. The purpose ofthe hearing is to determine whether a summons or warrant shouldbe issued to compel the person to attend court and answer to thecharge.

This hearing, held under s. 507.1 of the Criminal Code, takes placein private, without notice to the accused person. At the hearing,the judge or justice of the peace must hear and consider all of the

allegations and available evidence.

The Crown must also receive a copy of the information, get notice ofthe hearing, and have an opportunity to attend. The Crown may at-tend at the hearing without being deemed to intervene in the pro-ceedings.


11/26

Part 3.

1144//0099//22000099

11 o

If the judge or justice of the peace decides not to issue a summonsor a warrant, then the information is deemed never to have been

laid.

If the judge or justice of the peace issues a summons, the personwill be served with a copy of the summons, which notifies them ofthe charge and compels them to attend court. If the judge or justiceof the peace issues a warrant, the person will be arrested andbrought before a justice.

To avoid any abuse of the private prosecution process, the Criminal

Code and the Crown Attorneys Act authorize Crown Counsel to su-pervise privately laid charges to ensure that such prosecutions arein the best interest of the administration of justice. If a summonsor warrant is issued and the case involves an indictable offence, theCrown is required to take over the prosecution. So, a private citi-zen's right to swear an information is always subject to the Crown'sright to intervene and take over the prosecution.

If the Crown intervenes, the Crown will review the matter, as it does

in every other criminal case, to determine whether there is a rea-sonable prospect of conviction and whether a prosecution is in thepublic interest. If so, the Crown will proceed with the prosecution.If not, the Crown is dutybound to withdraw the charge.

Mr. Jeffrey LowesEmail: [email protected]

DearMr. Lowes:

Thank you for your email ofAugust 20, 2009 in which you indicated

several compliance issues that you feel need to be addressed byboth the federal and provincial governments as it relates to pesti-cide use. I am pleased to respond on behalf of the ministry.

The ministry manages its approach to compliance and enforcementthrough education and outreach, inspections, response to inci-dents, voluntary abatement, orders, tickets and prosecutions.When responding to reports of suspected non compliance related tothe cosmetic pesticides ban, the ministry will focus its initial efforts

on education and outreach while utilizing the appropriate compli-ance and enforcement tools when necessary. The ministry is alsomonitoring for compliance by inspecting vendors who sell pesticidesand businesses that apply pesticides.

In consulting with staff in our Eastern Region Office, I have beenadvised that your initial complaint regarding the suspected use ofbanned pesticides in municipal parks was received by the EasternRegion Office on August 17th; the details of which were forwardedto the Kingston District office for appropriate follow up. In addition,

yourAugust 20themail was also forwarded to the Kingston Dis-trict Office. I understand that this particular issue has been ad-dressed and both you and the City of Kingston have been contactedby staff in the Kingston District Office.

In regards to the issue of providing misleading pest control informa-

tion on municipal websites, the ministry will be following up withthe City of Windsor regarding the content on its website. Further-more, the ministry will be looking at other municipal websites toensure that any information on pest control complies with the re-quirements of Ontarios legislation

With respect to the promotion of Neem oil, as noted in yourAugust20themail as being advertised by Natures Way Landscaping, theministry has had recent discussions with Mr. Ross Pettigrew ofHealth Canadas Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) re-

garding the promotion of an unregistered pesticide. It is my under-standing that the PMRA will be addressing this situation as it fallswithin the PMRAs mandate.

Should you wish to report non compliance with the pesticide legis-lation, please contact the local ministry district office during regularbusiness hours (contact information can be found in the Blue Pagesin the telephone directory or on the ministrys website at www.ene.gov.on.ca/en/contact/regionalmap.php) or the ministrys

Pollution Hotline (after business hours) at 1866MOETIPS (18666638477).

Please be assured that the ministry follows a consistent approach tocompliance and enforcement with the Pesticides Act and OntarioRegulation 63/09. Reports of suspected non compliance are ad-dressed in accordance with the ministrys Compliance Policy (avail-able at www.ene.gov.on.ca/en/about/penalties/CompliancePolicy.pdf) which provides guidance to ministry staff on how to respond to

and address non compliance with environmental legislation.

Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention.

Yours sincerely,Dale HenryDirector

We are now living in the era of991111 of

now attained NN AA TT II OO NNAA LL proportions. The

This time,the GGoollff IInndduussttrryywill be totally alone, and devoid of any allies to help defenditself. The GGoollff IInndduussttrryy, because of its attitude of denial and protectionism

and mock

dismay at any form of criticism, is ignoring the supreme historic op-portunity to join forces with the PPrrooffeessssiioonnaall LLaawwnn CCaarree IInndduussttrryy, and litigateagainst the forces of environmentalist evil. A failure to do so will be lethal and

Who then will fight to protect the

industry from the Ontario prohibition ?

The PPrrooffeessssiioonnaall LLaawwnn CCaarree AAssssoocciiaattiioonn ooff OOnnttaarriioo(P.L.C.A.O.), in conjunction with its membership, and JeffreyLowes, has been VVEERRYY decisive regarding the Ontario CCoossmmeettiiccPPeessttiicciiddeess BBaann AAcctt. It has recently launched a legal action.

This legal challenge will be expensive. Fifty to onehundred thousand

dollars will likely be the price tag for a lawsuit that challenges the CCoossmmeettiiccPPeessttiicciiddeess BBaann AAcctt. In comparison, when the industry challenged the TToowwnnooff HHuuddssoonn, the path to TThhee SSuupprreemmee CCoouurrtt ooff CCaannaaddaa ultimately costonehundred and twentyfive thousand dollars. People seem to forget thatwhen you lose a challenge, you must pay the oppositions legal bills as well asyour own.

The PPrrooffeessssiioonnaall LLaawwnn CCaarree AAssssoocciiaattiioonn ooff OOnnttaarriioo has correctly rec-ognized that this is our last chance to prevent the prohibition, and save the in-dustry and our future. It needs our financial support! We must defend the

industry, whatever the cost may be !

William H. Gathercole holds a degree in Horticulture from the UUNNIIVVEERRSSIITTYY OOFFGGUUEELLPPHH, and another pure andapplied science degree from MMCCGGIILLLLUUNNIIVVEERRSSIITTYY. He has worked in virtually all aspects of the GGRREEEENNSSPPAACCEEIINNDDUUSSTTRRYY, including public affairs, personal safety, and environmental issues. Mr. Gathercole has been aconsultant and instructor for decades. He also been an agricultural agronomist. Mr. Gathercole has

been following the evolution of EENNVVIIRROONNMMEENNTTAALL TTEERRRROORRIISSMM for over a quartercentury. His involvement inenvironmental issues reached a fevered pitch in the 1990s, when he orchestrated, with others, legal ac-

tion against unethical and excessive municipal regulations restricting the use of pest control products. (i.e. the Town of Hudson. ) Although he can be accused of being AANNTTIIEENNVVIIRROONNMMEENNTTMMOOVVEEMMEENNTT, he is, infact, simply a strong advocate FFOORR the GGRREEEENN SSPPAACCEE IINNDDUUSSTTRRYY. However, this position has not precludedhim from criticizing the Green Space Industry itself. Nonetheless, his vast knowledge of our long journey

with environmental issues is UUNNDDEENNIIAABBLLEE. ( Hopefully ! ) For many years, Mr. Gathercole has been a con-tributing columnist forTTUURRFF&&RREECCRREEAATTIIOONN Magazine, Canadas Turf and Grounds Maintenance Authority.
