Only in Canada
Uncategorized March 7th. 2008, 7:22pmHearings resume at 0930 hours (9:30 am EST) this morning, Friday 07 March 2008. S/Sgt. Garry Derochie (Cornwall Police Service) will return to continue his evidence.
There is a severe winter storm moving in some time this afternoon or evening and continuing throughout Saturday. Predictions are 30 to 50 cms snow! A big one! The plan therefore at the Weave Shed is to recess by or around noon to ensure the gathered throng can catch their planes trains and automobiles and head for their respective homes before they become weather bound. Lead commission counsel Peter Engelmann plans to elicit testimony from Derochie regarding the CPS response to sex abuse allegations against Earl Landry Jr. Landry Jr., son of former Chief Early Landry, is a convicted paedophile.
Hearings will then recess until Monday 31 March 2008 – lots of time to go through, capture and post the salient points of Derochie’s testimony to date.

Perry was still at the Toronto East Detention centre yesterday afternoon. Apparently it takes a couple of days to get the paperwork in order to execute his transfer. I do hope that he is en route by this afternoon before the storm hits. Failing that he will be weather bound until after the storm sweeps through. If that’s the case he probably won’t be in Ottawa until at least Monday. As far as surroundings go that probably makes little difference. However Helen had used up Perry’s two fifteen-minute visits for the week and headed to Cornwall pending Perry’s arrival in Ottawa. She is scheduled to fly home to Duncan, BC on Sunday. I think it goes without saying she would like to see Perry settled in at the Ottawa Carleton Detention Centre before her departure.
I talked to Perry yesterday. He sounded good. He has had that long awaited and overdue shower. He had a complete and most welcome change of clothing – clean underwear, socks and orange T-shirt and jump pants. He is receiving mail and enjoys ever letter and savours every word which comes his way. Part of yesterday’s mail included a letter and picture from little Shawna Deroy. The picture is Shawna’s rendition of Perry in his orange jump suit. He loves the picture Shawna. Your letter maybe took a while to finally get to Perry but it arrived at just the right time for him. I believe the picture brought a big smile to his face. He was certainly very happy telling me about it.
I posted the address for the Ottawa Carleton Detention Centre. Mail should reach him if addressed to:
Perry Dunlop c/o OCDC
Ottawa Carleton Detention Centre
2244 Innes Road
Ottawa ON
K1B 4C4
Get the word out. Cards, letters and postcards to Perry. You have no idea how much that contact with friends and supporters means. Every single one is so deeply appreciated.
As I said, Perry sounded good. Amazingly good. It did my heart good to hear him. And, yes, the sense of humour is still there. He is a truly remarkable man. Would that there were a few more of his ilk in this country.

Something I neglected to mention. After Perry was whisked out of the courtroom on Wednesday there was some confusion. A number of people thought Justices Swinton and Ferrier had called for a recess. The thought was that we would be going back in.
John MacDonald, “alleged” victim of Father Charles MacDonald, was one of those who thought the court was in recess. He was convinced it was not over and anxious to get back in. Only later did I learn that John intended to address the court and offer to serve Perry’s time. He was extremely disappointed he missed the opportunity to stand for Perry.
I will add that the word I hear from the victims is that they are upset beyond measure.
****
Please note that Perry is being treated by the courts like a convicted paedophile. By the time they’re finished with him Perry will serve 18 to 21 months. His crime? He refuses to participate in or be party to a cover-up. Those are my words, not Perry’s. But one has only to look through the statements Perry and/or Helen have made over the past two to three years. It’s there. Contrary to the media’s selective extrapolations, it’s there. I will pull together all of the statements Perry and Helen have made over the past three years and get them posted together.
Anyway, look at this….
Convicted paedophile James Lewis got SIX MONTHS months for molesting Jamie Marsolais (scroll down). Lewis was out and about in 118 days. Good behaviour I suppose?
And note, convicted paedophile Michel Maybury is now out and about. He served 11 MONTHS for molesting a five-year-old boy!!! Eleven months!!!!!
Perry will “do” 18 to 21 months! The whistleblower will “do” more time than a convicted paedophile who molests little boys!!!! Unbelievable. And, mark my words, Perry will serve every single day. No bail for Perry. No time served for Perry. And, the way things are going, no out early on good behaviour for Perry.
Only in Canada!
And the honourable judges would have us believe that ít is Perry who has brought the administration of justice into disrepute?!!
Have you ever seen the likes of it?
Dear God in Heaven help us all. And keep Perry safe and strong.

On to the media of the day. Keep an eye on New to the Site on the Home page.
Enough for now

(see Standard-Freeholder, “Two sides to every story:” Aikman. March 07, 2008)
I believe , this to be a very sad and arrogant commentary by Cornwall Police Services Deputy Chief Danny Aikman. Does Deputy Chief Aikman, rely on his apparent perception, that Cornwall Citizen’s and Dunlop supporters are “STUPID” or illiterate?
Don’t forget readers, people from all areas, including current and previous politicians, will come forward, offering their reasons as to why Perry Dunlop is so “bad” and cannot be believed. “Divisional Court” has “Ordered” that Perry Dunlop be coerced into testifying and he and his “spoken word” be discredited; BUT not because his “spoken word” about “Project Truth etc” are lies, but, because Perry Dunlop was “disobedient” to “Divisional Court.”. Over the next couple of months, the “goings on” at the “Public Inquiry” will be forgotten, as Perry Dunlop and his “supporters” will be maligned.
BUT in Deputy Chief Aikman’s attempt to “influence public opinion”, I believe he mistakenly “HOPES” readers are “too stupid” to know the facts or too afraid to “speak out”, about what they know. REMARKABLY, other articles in today’s, “Standard-Freeholder”, headline, “Overwhelming Support” for Dunlop and “In their own words”, writers offer, “overwhelming support” for Dunlop, as have these “blogs” over the past couple of weeks.
Mr. Aikman attempts to discredit Dunlop by saying, Dunlop spread “misinformation “ about the police force. Well, has anyone heard “recent testimony” by police officers, who spent over $150,000.00, preparing for the next couple of months testimony. NOT a very good depiction of the “THEN” Cornwall Police Services.
WHICH brings me to more misinterpretations and “public opinion forming” by Deputy Chief Aikman. HE claims a 95% satisfaction rating, by citizens, regarding police services in Cornwall, in “recent community surveys.” The important word here, is “RECENT”. Gee, did he think we would believe “they” did a good job in 1993 and up to 2003? HOW about a “scientific poll” about how citizens feel police managed “related issues” since in or before 1993?
Additionally, Deputy Chief AIKMAN states, “He (Dunlop) left the force in 2001 after being the subject of numerous internal police investigations.” UNFORTUNATELY for people who are interested in the “complete story”, Deputy Aikman fails to state, PERRY was cleared, exonerated, absolved, innocent, etc., etc. of any “wrongdoing” and all allegations him were “DISMISSED”. In fact, “Orders” wrote that Dunlop DID THE RIGHT THING!!! Fail to mention that too.. PERRY has NEVER been found guilty of misconduct or criminal offences or anything, until “Divisional Court” proceedings, in 2008.
THE “problem with Mr. Aikman and the people who wish to “persecute” Perry, is that the “lapdog” “mainstream news media” can spread the “misinterpretation” of people like Mr. Aikman, worldwide, BUT, at least forty-five thousand people in and around Cornwall, Ontario, CANADA, know the “facts”; including the many, “gagged” victims and “victims” who have NOT YET come forward.
YES, “special interest groups.” I URGE citizen’s to “WATCH OUT” for “special interest groups”, who are influenced by “false promises, self-preservation, $$$$$, promises and FEAR.” Mr. Aikman does a dis-service, when he “seemingly” assumes, people are “stupid”.

I wish I had known I could send Perry words while serving his sentence, I did add a blog not certain if it made it but I did post it. Never posted on a blog before this.
Good Luck to Perry and Family in the future.
