Stop Hiding - Join us!
Dear Brothers and Sisters, We must work together to re-educate
our governments in the economic and human disaster in the enforcement of
Marijuana Laws as an un-constitutional criminal act against all of God's creatures.
Julius
Caesar: "Cowards die many times before
their deaths;
but the Valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard. It seems to me most strange that
men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will
come." William Shakespeare

Fighting for Justice over
Clearwater Abbey!
Reverend Brother Michael J.
Baldasaro & Reverend Brother Walter A. Tucker (Right), blanketing Guelph Provincial Court
in 1986. All charges of trespassing on Church Lands at Clearwater Abbey are
dismissed by Judge Bruce Payne at Guelph,
Ontario.
The Federal Crown Prosecutor
previously dropped all cultivation of Marijuana charges, over our
objections, because they did not want our claims to go before a jury.
We were illegally removed from Clearwater Abbey by 30 S.W.A.T.
Ontario Provincial Police who refused to let us put on our clothes. Her
Majesty's minions then chained
us, wrapped us in orange plastic blankets, threw us into the back of a paddy
wagon, dragged us away to a jail cell and then to court where we were
forced to appear before a Justice of the Peace for a bail hearing, clad
only in prison blankets. In the end, Judge Bruce Payne dismissed the
bogus charges, once again over our objections, because the Prosecution
refused to give us the full disclosure they undertook to do under Judge
Payne's previous Orders.
The Churches claim of right
to the Abbey was heard and dismissed by the Ontario Court of Appeal in the
Spring of 1997, 11 years later. An application for Leave to Appeal is
pending before the Supreme Court of Canada.
We shall never quit fighting for our rights and freedoms!

Question Authority?
Confronted by authority your right is to
remain silent. On private property you have the
immediate right to see the Search Warrant. In public confrontations the same
thing applies.

In 1981
the Supreme Court of Canada confirmed the common law right in Colet
v.
The Queen that "The police are never justified in entering onto
private property unless
they first announce their presence and demonstrate their lawful authority
with a warrant.
It is unconstitutional for police to lie and misrepresent themselves and to
hide their
purpose in order to entrap anyone into violating any law.

In all
cases you have the constitutional right to the counsel of your own choice
before
answering any questions, either in and/or out of Court. Counsel includes your
minister,
family, and friends etc. and not just lawyers.

The Truth about Canada's Marijuana Laws!

The Truth about Canada's Marijuana Laws!
|
|
|
|
Canada's legislation against God's Tree of Life, Marijuana was declared a federal
civil non-criminal public health law by the Supreme Court of Canada in 1979
via its ruling in The Queen v. Patrick Arnold Hauser
that Canada's Narcotic
Control Act "is not a matter of criminal law."
|
|
Those of
us convicted of Marijuana Offenses do not have a criminal record and should
not allow ourselves to be treated like or referred to as criminals as if we
had actually violated the Criminal Code of Canada. If charged and/or
convicted we must demand that the court and no-one, not the Judge,
Jury, Media and especially not the Prosecution refer to the charges,
conviction and/or punishment as if it were criminal.
In 1995 Reverend Baldasaro
was convicted at Hamilton,
Ontario of Trafficking in
Marijuana. The Chief Judge and the Crown Prosecutor kept referring to the
charges as criminal, even to the jury, however when Reverends Tucker and
Baldasaro objected the judge and crown were forced to concede that the
proceedings were non-criminal and to refer to them as such before the jury
and even at sentencing which ended in 1997 with a successful appeal as to
sentence in the Court of Appeal for Ontario.
NOT
CRIMINAL!
It is immoral for the state
to make it appear that persons charged with and/or convicted of Marijuana/Drug
Offenses violated criminal law when their authority to act is based
upon a federal non-criminal health legislation. Such misrepresentations and
lies cause us to be stigmatized "Reefer Madness" as if we
actually committed a grave criminal offence when in fact, we had not!
The incorrect reference by
the Justice System is biased and discriminating. The use of the word
criminal in non-criminal matters illegally gives the perception of a
violent offender and offence under the Criminal Code. It wrongly prejudices
the judge, jury, media and public against an otherwise non-violent harmless
defendant "victimless crime". Such misrepresentations of the
circumstances surrounding such non-criminal matters constitutes cruel and
unusual treatment and punishment and is un-constitutionally criminal and
illegal to say the very least and has brought the administration of justice
into disrepute.
Our Justice System is
currently painting everyone with the same brush, regardless of their
offence and without any consideration to the degree of these non-criminal
offenses.
Proceedings under the
Narcotic Control Act and/or the Controlled Drug and Substances Act can only
result in a record for a conviction under those specific Acts. Only a
conviction for a violation of the provisions of the of the Criminal Code
itself could result in a Criminal Record upon conviction.
The mere fact that criminal
procedures and sanctions are being used by the prosecution in the criminal
courts for non-criminal crimes such as drug and provincial offenses, i.e.
Trespass to Property Actor a conviction for the crime of jay-walking
will not result in a criminal record is proof that one may have a Jay
Walking Record and/or like myself and so many other Canadians, a Narcotic
Control Act or Controlled Drug and Substances Act Record NOT CRIMINAL!
See the Hauser decision cited below:

Attorney
General. In R. v. Hauser(1979),
46 C.C.C. (2d) 481, [1979] 1 S.C.R. 984, 8 C.R. (3d) 89
It was held (5:2) that the
Attorney General of Canada has exclusive jurisdiction to control the
proceedings in non-Criminal Code offenses where the particular offence does
not depend for its validity on the criminal law power in s. 91(27) of the
Constitution Act, 1867. In particular the Attorney General of Canada has
power to prosecute offenses under the Narcotic Control Act, (Can.) since that Act is not a matter of
criminal law, but rather falls within Parliament's
general jurisdiction to legislate for the "peace, order and good
government" of Canada.

In
Hauser, the Supreme Court ruled that Marijuana Laws, originally
prosecuted under the provisions of the Criminal Code of Canada were
un-constitutional or ultra vires parliament and re-shuffled the Legislation
under the Narcotic Control Act (now the Controlled Drugs and substances
Act) a.k.a. the War Measures Act, (peace, order and good government)
pursuant to the provisions of Section 91 of the British North America Acts,
1867 to 1997. known today as the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

It wasn't criminal then and
it is not criminal now. It is a
non-criminal federal health law,
un-constitutional under any guise!
Canada's Marijuana Offenders are currently
being prosecuted by the Attorney General of Canada on behalf of the
Minister of Health Canada
and not as criminals.
In criminal law there must be
a victim and the complainant must be the victim of the alleged offense.
Marijuana laws have always been referred to as victimless crimes.
Reference: Hauser, supra and in the Criminal Code "complainant
means" the victim of the alleged offense.
We are being illegally prosecuted!
Administered by the Minister
of National Health and Welfare, the provisions of the Marijuana
Legislation, originally passed under the federal governments residual power
to make laws for the peace, order and good government of Canada, are of no
force or effect until locally adopted and proclaimed into force via the
majority of voters in each Municipality across Canada just like Canada's Prohibition of Alcohol. Reference: Laskin's Constitutional Law, (1951) and R. v. Hauser
In 1991, Statistics Canada
reported 33,275 Canadians arrested and treated like criminals because of
their association with the Marijuana, Tree of Life culture and supposedly
violating this public health law which is not even legally in force.
We should be hiring
more health care professionals to treat health problems
and not judges, lawyers, police, and jail guards etc.
