Today in Divisional Court Joshua Cohen presented a motion requesting leave of the court to speak on behalf of Roger Morin the mentally challenged man who was falsely labeled a pedophile.
Initially the judge said no to Josh's request to speak on Roger's behalf because she said he had no standing. Josh read off several case law references that demonstrate the court has the authority to let him speak for Roger especially since Roger is mentally delayed.
Josh also brought up the fact that I had been granted leave to speak on behalf of Lorraine Paquin in a Divisional Court for a Judicial Review. The Judge then changed her position and let Josh go ahead and speak about the readiness for the trial, which will be held the week of June 13, 2011.
Josh is well prepared to make Rogers case in front of three Judges. The Child and Family Review Board closed Roger’s case after they found him eligible for a review with no reason given. This is what is the topic of Judicial Review.
I am looking forward to a victory in this case because there has been such a long-standing injustice towards Rogers by the CAS.
Ultimately Josh is looking at trying to get Roger reunited with his children and of course have his name cleared.
I personally think Roger’s case is such a shame to the CAS it might lead to the investigation that will blow off its corrupt doors and reveal its insidious underbelly of this child napping industry leading to the doors being closed for good. We need a government agency to handle child protection like every other province in Canada and a private unaccountable money grabbing baby snatching outfit.
Jane Scharf
I am providing a very shocking update to the post I made on July 19, 2010. This young woman has been constantly under attack by vicious CAS workers acting in bad faith since that time.
All of a sudden they turned on her at the end of July 2010 the same week the ombudsman’s office was advised of her case and a related case involving Roger Morin a 42 year old mentally delayed man who CAS labeled as a pedophile when he was in his 20's. He was labled a pedophile even though he had never been accused or convicted of any offense against a child. His two children were taken from him at birth based on this false label. He was labeled as a pedophile by forcing him to have a:
This test involves putting electrodes on a man's penis and then showing him naked pictures to measure the sexual response. This test was given to this man by Dr. Bradford head of the Royal Ottawa Hospital in the 1990's. The results were given to the CAS upon their request (and they paid for this consultation with Bradford) without the knowledge or consent of his patient Roger or his mother who was his caregiver at that time. And the results were used to remove Rogers’s children from him at birth.
In 2006 a group of international forensic psychiatrists meet in Ottawa to discuss the use of this penile test on persons with mental delay. The result was that this group which included Dr. Bradford found it was not valid when used on individuals with mental delay and recommended that it not be use this way in the future. Also the BC Supreme Court found it was not useful for predictions or treatement or any other purpose and it was a intrusive rights violation and they recommended that the BC Government outlaw the test altogether which they did. So it seems the label placed on Roger made solely on a prediction was not valid. But nevertheless even though the test was found to be a useless prediction tool and the fact that there was no evidence that he acted as a pedophile before the test or for all the years after the test (over twenty) CAS removed this mother’s child from her because this man was her friend. They put in the court paperwork the child was put at risk of sexual abuse by the mother. The mother reported at the time of apprehension (at birth) that she was unaware of these accusations against this man but that she was prepared to disassociate from him until the matter is cleared up (which she did do immediately). In disregard to her statement and actions in this regard they took the infant anyway and changed course to try and make her out to be mentally ill and incompetent which they have failed to do.
Because there was no lacking in her capacity to care for the infant the society insisted that she have a psychological assessment, which she did. The doctor did not confirm their predictions that she is dangerous and he did not confirm she was delayed. He only found her to be unrealistic in some of her expectations because she is so young only 19 and therefore recommended some additional community parenting and CAS infant stimulation. And he clearly stated that he was "definitely not recommending crown wardship at this time and this would not be in the child's best interest". Nevertheless the CAS is pressing on for permanent crown wardship with no access to the mother and CAS also refused to provide the recommended infant stimulation classes.
One other issue I forgot to point out is that this aggressive approach taken in this case with fabrication of facts occuring in this case happens almost in every case where a mother is young especially if she was in CAS herself as this mother was. A pamphlet paid for by the Ontario Government distributed by the Family Court Counter at the courthouse 161 Elgin St, Ottawa states that CAS can take your child at birth if "you are a teen mother especially if you were once in the care of the CAS." To this end the CAS frequents the homes and programs to help teen mothers and this is how the the young mothers are identified and stocked until the get to the hospital where the hospital is then required to notifiy CAS and the infants are removed from the mother hours after birth. They snatch the baby and then use their vast resources (provided by taxpayers by the government with no accountability about how the money is used) and their corrupt community contacts to make their case against the mother who has done nothing wrong.
There never was any child protection issue in this case in the first place and still there are no child protection issues yet they still have her infant in their so-called "care".
They have tried every trick in the book to undermine her relationship with her son from pressuring her to force feed him when he is not hungry to following him around inches away from him every minute during his attempts to learn how to walk. And in an effort to create cause they advised her to put out several toys at a time for when he arrived in the mornings, which had the effect of drawing his interest towards the toys. Then they jumped on this and said the mother was not establishing eye contact with her son. The mother did catch on to this and changed the routine to taking one toy out at a time and interacting with her son with it. The first day she did this their "eye contact" during these sessions was effected. The issue disappeared. The CAS worker spends the next several weeks pressuring her go back to the previous routine in order to undermine her ability to maintain eye contact during her activity sessions.
The Doctor saw good eye contact and rapour between mother and child when he observed them together during a visit.
The CAS access workers also spend a great deal of time trying to undermine the activities the mother was doing by continuously calling and making noises to get her sons attention. Finally this was caught on video that was taken by the access worker at Christmas time. What she filmed for the mother was the activity between the child and mother opening the child’s presents. After this evidence was captured this intrusiveness stopped.
They have also lied numerous times to the court about the mother and on one occasion they got caught telling the court that that a court appearance was to be moved on consent of both the mother and CAS when in fact the mother was not asked. This was the first time I saw the court reprimand CAS.
The matter is soon going to trial now and the CAS are playing major games trying to withhold a doctors report that states he is not recommending crown wardship at this time.
This week they called the mother in and told her they were considering placing her son with her aunt. They contacted the aunt without the knowledge or consent of the mother. And they stated to the mother that they were going to do this whether she wanted them to or not. The aunt home is not suitable but the mother should not have to deal with this because the CAS had no right to breach the mother and child's confidence by advising the aunt she had a child and an aunt has no custodial rights. This is pure intimidation and abuse.
The only other issue they have identified besides the eye contact issue which is nonexistent now is that on one occasion in 12 months she was checking the bottle after heating and before she was finished the effort the CAS access worker said let me have the bottle and checked it on her own arm and found it to hot. So even though the mother was not finished the effort of checking and cooling the CAS access worker put the matter down as extreme incompetence.
This agency is this far out of control because they have no oversight from the government of any kind. They lie and break the law on an on going basis and nothing is done.
Contrary to the recommendation from the Doctor not to place the child as a crown ward the CAS is pressing on with their eye contact and one hot bottle issues for full permanent custody of her son with no contact with her.
Well myself and many other conscientious people are working very hard to change this and we are hoping their 140 year reign of terror will be over this year. When the public and court learn of what they have done to this vulnerable man and young mother the court of public opinion will come down hard.
Remember the Red Cross scandal well this one is far worse and has been going on for much longer. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

"Jesus was from the point of view of the High Priest a heretic and an
impostor. From the point of view of the merchants he was a rioter and a
Communist. From the Roman Imperialist point of view he was a traitor. From
the common sense point of view he was a dangerous mad man. From the
snobbish point of view, always a very influential one, he was a penniless vagrant.
"From the police point of view he was an obstructer of thoroughfares, a
beggar, an associate of prostitutes, an apologist of sinners, and a disparager of
judges; and his daily companions were tramps whom he had seduced into
vagabondage from their regular trades. From the point of view of the pious he
was a Sabbath breaker, a denier of the efficacy of circumcision and the advocate
of a strange rite of baptism, a gluttonous man and a wine bibber. He was
abhorrent to the medical profession as an unqualified practitioner who healed
people by quackery and charged nothing for the treatment.
"He was against the priests, against the judiciary, against the military,
against the city (he declared that it was impossible for a rich man to enter the
kingdom of heaven), against all the interests, classes, principalities and powers,
inviting everybody to abandon all these and follow him.
"By every argument, legal, political, religious, customary and polite, he was
the most complete enemy of the society of his time ever brought to the bars. He
was guilty on every count of the indictment, and on many more that his accusers
had not the wit to frame. If he was innocent then the whole world was guilty. To
acquit him was to throw over Civilisation and all its institutions. History has
borne out the case against him; for no State has ever constituted itself on his
principles or made it possible to live according to his commandments."
Bernard Shaw wrote the above cited commentary on Jesus in the preface to his
play on the Rocks (1933).
I am normally a positive optimistic person. And I create the Christmas's that I want and I usually always enjoy them. But this Christmas is different. I am embroiled in a bitter fight with CAS over the arbitrary abduction of a baby. This organization is more psycho than any corporation I have ever had the displeasure of fighting. It got me feeling like this is a war as outrageous as any. The poor and vulnerable are the victims of these vicious corporate attacks and big government funding and baby selling including to the highest bidder on international baby markets are the stacks.
The young woman that I am backing is a trooper. She takes the blows and comes right back at them. She has a team of 10 activists behind her and we expect her to win but what of the usual situation. Even the lawyers on both sides help the CAS "make their case" by lying, manipulating and pressuring their own clients into compliance with the CAS's wishes. And judges for the most part go along and endorse whatever the CAS wants.
For Christmas next year I want to the see the CAS doors closed forever with a government take over. Not that government has a spotless record when it comes to managing this type of affair but it has a better track record than this hideous private corporation that has been snatching babies and destroying families for over 140 years.
And bare in mind that 1) apprehentions are up 130% annually since 2003 when Mike Harris put a predium rate in place for funding. CAS gets so much when they open a file for investigation, so much for an apprehention, and so much for an adoption.
One woman I helped last year had to deal with them after her x husband falsely reported to CAS that she hurt her son. His motivation for this accussation was retaliation against mother because he was being investigated for deliquent support payments. The mother did not initiated this action the Ontario Works worker involved did this because he was making $40,000 was single living with his parents and paying $65. per month child support that was based lowere wages from years before. He pretended he was calling from the school. At 7 pm a female worker and two police officers one female and one male came to her door and knocked. She did not answer right away because she was in the shower. She came to the door dripping wet and the CAS worker started flipping out at her because she dared to delay in answering the door. She said because of the delay they were going to apprehend the child right there and then. The female officer was ready to go and wake the child up right then and drag him off. The male officer said wait a minute we better investigate whether the accussation was true or not. The two females relucantly aggreed and they went and woke the child up and asked him about a bruise he had on his back. He said half a sleep rubbing his eyes he was playing and he slipped back and hit his back on the corner of the bed and he showed them where.

But to these workers this is just business as usual.
Even though CAS agreed the report was false and the mother got the school to write that the call was not from the school and the police traced the call to her x husbands house they still tried to pressure the mother into signing a supervision agreement so they could get more money for an openned file.
The mother had plenty of back up including her child’s school so the CAS backed off but what of the thousands of others who lose their children in this cat and mouse game. The CAS uses teams of workers and teams of lawyers to emotionally beat these mothers into submission so they can make the case against them and apprehends their children. It is criminal and it has got to stop soon as it is devasting children and their families.

Today July 30 Max Radico and myself attended the courthouse at 161 Elgin to inquire about the court hearing dates for Matt Morgan-Brown and Roger Clement. Max and I both made inquiries about their present and past court appearances. The clerk at the criminal court was able to find both individuals on the computer easily and all the information requested was provided.
I credit the Deputy Minister of the Attorney General Ann Merrit for this great improvement in the availabity of hearing information for these two individuals. Shortly after a complaint was made to her office her assistant called and said they were going to take action on my complaint about information not being made public about Roger and Matt's hearing dates at the criminal counter.
What this improvement means is that anyone with an interest in this case can get all the required information about hearings if the want to attend and support or attend as a observer.
This pubic accessibility helps support open hearings which helps promote fair process.
Now I need to find out why the lawyer Lawrence Greenspon did not file all the documents for Rogers Clement's bail review to go ahead on July 30 as schedule which is over a month from the time of his bail hearing.

Dear Madam Ann Merrit:
I am writing to you regarding an urgent need for intervention with the Ontario Courthouse in Ottawa. It is in regard to the courts refusal to publish the court dates of Matthew Morgan Brown and Roger or Joseph Clement file number 110-11371-01 and 02.
I attended at the courthouse on July 9, 2010 at the criminal counter and asked for information on their court dates. The gentlemen operating the computer tried very hard to locate these names. He even said he knew who they were and was surprised they were not listed in the computer. They were arrested for arson of the Royal Bank of Canada in Ottawa on June 18 and had been in court several times before my inquiry. At this time I spoke with the court administrator who also checked and could not find them in the computer. On July 13 I sent a complaint (copied below to all relevant authorities) and on July 14 I got a call from the court unsolicited and I was told when the next court date was and that they were now in the computer.
On July 22 I returned again to request info about court dates at the criminal courter and again their names were not recorded.
I called the court administration again and I have not been able to get the date for Roger’s Clement bail review that was set last week according to Roger Clement and announced publicly in a support update from his defense team last week and again yesterday.
I would like your office to intervene and make sure these individuals have their court appearance information made public. Without proper attention to open hearings the process is not constitutionally valid and this alone could cause a miscarriage of justice.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter,
Sincerely,
Jane Scharf
Ps. please note that since I sent complaint to authorities July 13 the Ottawa Citizen and Ottawa Sun on July 15 report that there was a police undercover officer involved. Links on my blog (www.janescharf.com/blog/

COPY OF COMPLAINT WHICH INCLUDES COMPLAINT ABOUT COURT SERVICES SENT JULY 13
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I am hereby registering a formal complaint to all relevant authorities asking them to include an enquiry into the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) arson fire May 28, 2010 as part of the G20 Independent Public Enquiry into countless complaints of police wrongdoings.
POSSIBLE POLICE PROVOCATEUR ACTIVITY
Repeatedly the Ottawa Police and media linked the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) arson fire with the G20 conference that was held in Toronto June 26, 27, 28, 2010. Police reported that they arrested three people for the RBC arson Roger Clement, Matt Morgan Brown and Claude Haridge. However, they did not end up charging Claude with the RBC arson.
After the three arrests the police made the following statement on June 20, 2010. “While I am very pleased to bring this portion of the RBC arson file to a close, I ask Ottawa residents to remain vigilant, before and during the G8-G-20, and continue to report any suspicious activity to police,” noted Chief Vern White, Ottawa Police Service."
When I leaned that Claude Haridge was not charged with the RBC arson I wondered who the third person was because I can see three persons (two coming out of bank and one taking the video) in the video of the fire at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5RiRuo5R38. I started to ask around about who the third person might be. I was told by several activists that the third person was named Francios Leclerc who was an undercover police officer that infiltrated the activists community two years ago. I was told that he was charged with arson but let out the next day on bail and left town. These are rumours that need to be investigated by the Independent Public Enquiry.
I have suspicions about the police because of many unanswered questions in this case of the RCB arson fire such as who is the third person in the video if it was not Claude Haridge. One person at least is still at large and the police are not looking for them. My suspicions are deepened because of the police provocateur activity at Montebello and the evidence of police provocateur activity at the G20. Why would the police do this???? That's easy to help justify the 1.1 billion dollar security price tag for the G8 G20 conferences in Toronto. And my suspicions grow to urgent concern when I learned that the two persons charge with this RBC arson fire are not receiving due process.
ROGER CLEMENT AND MATT MORGAN BROWN DENIED DUE PROCESS IN BAIL PROCEEDINGS
I have grave concerns about the well being of those charged with the RBC arson fire Roger Clement and Matt Morgan Brown. Roger had a bail hearing and was denied bail and we don't know why because of a publication ban on the hearing. Matt has not even had a bail hearing and is not expected to have one until some time in August. (bail hearings in front of a Justice of the Peace are guarantees to be held within 3 days and reviewed within a week by a judge).
Roger has no criminal record whatsoever yet he was denied bail.. He was even denied bail under surety conditions where several people who did met all legal conditions to act as sureties were denied.
Roger's lawyer Lawrence Greenspon is not representing his interests in that he requested a publication ban on the bail hearing. A publication ban is suppose to protect the accused from the publication of the crowns evidence against them so potential jurors will not hear the case and form prejudicial conclusions before the trial. But since the public already knows the crowns case against Roger through the press all a publication ban has done is prevent the public from finding out that Roger has no criminal record and that he has an excellent reputation as a kind, generous and gentle man. I don't even know if these things were brought up in the bail hearing by the lawyer but if they were not they should have been and the public needs to know this to counter the crowns evidence that is already out there. And because of the ban the public cannot effectively judge if the bail was denied unreasonably unless they know about Rogers background and character as I do. With the publication ban in place the public will continue to view Roger as a maniacal terrorist and they will presume there was reasonable cause to put him in and keep in jail. The publication ban also protects Greenspon from the publication of any short comings in the defence at the bail hearing.
I firmly believe that if Roger is denied bail in his upcoming bail review and there are no grounds for appeal afterwords then it will be because Lawrence Greenspon took a dive with Roger's liberty and the public will not be any the wiser because of the publication ban which Greenspon conveniently put it place.
Bottom line Roger was denied bail for no apparent reason and Matt has not even had his bail hearing which he is guaranteed in law to be conducted within 3 days.
MORE DUE PROCESS DENIED-NO RECORD OF ROGER OR MATT IN THE COURT COMPUTER
As of Friday July 9, 2010-22 days after their arrest June 18 Roger and Matt are not registered in the court computer system. This means that no member of the public or press can find out the remand or bail hearing dates for either of the accused. According to court admin a publication ban does not cover the court registration of court dates. The public has a right to know these dates and it is necessary for Roger and Matt to have them published in order to have an open fair hearing process. The court administer also said the only legitimate reason why there would be no court record of their hearings is if information about their charges has not yet been filled by the police. I said that Roger Clement and Matt Morgan Brown had already appeared in court to show cause and Roger had a bail hearing. She said impossible if they had hearings they would be in the court computer system. She then checked herself and confirmed that they were both not in the system and recommend that I contact the police.
OTTAWA MOVEMENT DEFENCE
There is a group calling itself the Ottawa Movement Defence (OMD) that has sprung up to organize Matt and Roger's defence lead by Dan Sawyer that does not seem to be acting in Roger and Matt's best interest. Dan Sawyer is the man that organized the fake special diet clinics in Ottawa as part of the province wide protest put on by Ontario Coalition Against Poverty that lead to the province cutting the special diet allowance severely in 2006 because of the fake special diet clinics. This group hired Greenspon after recommending to Roger he be retained for him. OMD are promoting the publication ban and they are telling people not to enquire about the third person involved in the arson. I have an email directed to me with these instructions from the OMD. I was also concerned that Roger and Matt were being cut off from contact with outside as Roger told me when I visited him on June 30 that he was not getting visitors and people in his defence team were not answering his calls. The OMD failed to contact people who offered to visit including myself. Roger was also anxious because he did not know what was going on with his defence. He did not know on June 30 if Greenspon was going to go for a bail review. And the biggest anxieties he had was not being able to send money to a family that he was helping financially in Cuba because he could not contact anyone to arrange it for him.
OUTSTANDING QUESTIONS THAT NEED ANSWERING IN AN INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ENQUIRY
What I think is going on is that this RBC arson was a dramatic event orchestrated by the police to justify the 1.1 billion dollar security budget on the G20. And that Roger and Matt are innocent scapegoats. I believe this because if they were guilty and the state had good evidence then they would not be denied due process. I think the lack of due process is to pressure them into pleading guilty so the matter does not go to trial where all the facts might come out including who is the third person in the video.
These are many of the questions that we the public need answered to be sure that Roger and Matt receive their constitutional right to reasonable bail and protection from arbitrary detention and a fair open trial guaranteed by our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
1) How did the Ottawa Citizen know the police were suspecting Roger Clement before Roger was questioned by police. Citizen did an interview with Roger before police interviewed him.
2) Why did the police say that they caught all those involved in this arson of the Royal Bank when they only charged two individuals Matt and Roger and the third one they arrested Claude Haridge they let out on bail without any charges related to the arson of the RBC Bank. Yet when you watch the video of the fire there are three people two come out of the bank and one is taking the video that was posted on the Internet after the fire therefore there was definitely three people involved. WHO WAS THIS THIRD PERSON?????
3) Is there such a person as Francois Leclerc? Is Francois a police agent? Was Leclerc charged with anything in relation to the RBC arson? Has Leclerc been released on bail? Has Leclerc fled?
4) Are Roger and Matt just innocent fall guys?
5) Is the Ottawa Movement Defence part of the provocateur activity? Is the self appointed leader Dan Sawyer a police agent?
6) Why has Matt not had his bail hearing which he is entitled to within three days?
7) Why did Roger not get out on bail even with sureties?
8) Why does Roger and Matt's names not appear on the court computer so the public can find out the court dates? Did someone order this done and if so who?
9) Are Roger and Matt being detained to pressure them into pleading guilty so this matter does not go to trial? If so who ordered this be done?
10) If the police are involved in this incident then the public needs to know if the police initiated the incident or were they instructed to do so from above?
NOTE:
Please feel free to distrubte this to any interested party as nothing in the email violates the publication ban as it does not discuss the crowns evidence other than what was in the press before the ban therefore not covered by the ban.
Any further information or clarification I can offer please make your requests to my email jane@janescharf.com and I will arrange an interview with you.
Over 53,000 people on facebook are demanding an independent public enquiry into accusations of police wrongdoings in connection with the G8/G20 conferences in Toronto on June 26, 27, 28. If you yourelf want the enquiry you can join this group or contact officials yourself and demand accountability.
Jane Scharf
Letter from the Alex Myer, Senior Communications Advisor-External Communications/Office of the Auditor General of Canada confirming an audit on the G8 and G20.
The Sun article states that an undercover officer was involved in the RBC Arson and had been working undercover gathering information leading up to the G8 and G20 for two years. Therefore, the expenses of this project need to be examined and it can determine if there were other undercover agents involved in the RBC Arson.
The Ombudsman of Ontario has also been asked to look at the police involvement with RBC Arson because this incident was used as rational to justify huge security spending for G8 and G20 and a secret law overriding civil rights.
