SEPTEMBER 10th

 

Hi Everyone,

  • A large win in the US:   2023-09-10 Appeals court rules Biden administration censored free speech
  • I have posted examples of the Canadian Covid Court Cases in which CHARGES HAVE BEEN DROPPED.

Number 14 of the “For Your Selection” list at bottom:

 *** A wonky win INVALIDATES THE PUBLIC HEALTH ORDERS OF DR DEENA HINSHAW, CHIEF MEDICAL HEALTH OFFICER OF ALBERTA

  • I marked Covid Court Cases that have fallen (charges dropped or stayed, for example) with asterisks  *** .  Police and Prosecutors do not get to do this in a democracy.  See 

    2024-08-08 Lawfare, what is it?

 

The Tamara Lich and Chris Barber trials are in session now, in Ottawa.  Leonard Greenspon, a prominent (high-profile) Canadian lawyer, is representing Tamara Lich;  Diane Magas represents Chris Barber.

DAY 4 of the Tamara Lich – Chris Barber proceedings:   https://www.rebelnews.com/judge_in_high_profile_trial_of_tamara_lich_is_very_unhappy_with_crown’s_evidentiary_fumbling

 

In my view,  The System, the way it works,  HAS TO HAVE someone to prosecute.   You can’t have a court case that doesn’t have a Defendant.

Did Tamara Lich and Chris Barber REALLY organize the hundreds of thousands of Canadians and international supporters? 

The question ignores the fact that the World has changed.  “Self-organizing” is a recognized and studied phenomenon.

I put “Self-organizing” into the “Search” button on my blog.  Here’s a couple excerpts:

In my view, a difficulty for authorities is that their modus operandi conventionally requires the designation of “leaders” to whom “fault” can be assigned and prosecuted.   They HAVE TO punish to set an example to others, to discourage others from standing up for the Rule of Law. 

At the Enquiry (into the Invocation of the Emergency Act) I hear,  police and prosecutors asking  “Who told you . . .”, or “Who led . . .”, or “Do you know (one of the people jailed for being seen to be a leader)?/  Did you have conversations with…?  When did you first meet . . .?   Who introduced you . .  .?  Who are the leaders?  (We want to put them in jail, fine them, castrate them.  Give us the evidence we need.)

Make sure there is a long memory of what happens to anyone who is involved in protest, no matter how legal it is.  (And no matter the depth and length of the grievance and consequently the public support.)

“Successful social movements are emergent, evolving, radically self-organizing, and involve the dedicated efforts of many people, each finding the role that best uses his or her gifts and passions.”   (sounds to me like the Freedom Convoy)

It is similar to what I wrote  About the Network   (on my blog), 2004.

QUESTION:  Does or can  Korten’s prescription  (emergent, evolving, radically self-organizing, many working together, individuals finding the role that suits their passions)  help to address the problem with getting people to take the advice offered by Meadows or by someone else?   Are monumental meeting and organizing challenges addressed?

Personally,  I think the changes we need are, and will continue to happen, if we are willing to give up control.   Where “facts are uncertain, values in dispute, stakes high and decisions urgent”  we may do well to recognize that things are rapidly evolving (we aren’t standing still) and  “radically self-organizing”.

History tells us this is the way it sometimes happens.   The world did not see the Iron Curtain coming down,  the fall of the Communists in East Germany.   It was accomplished without major bloodshed and seemingly, out of the blue.

I am a fan of Nellie McClung – – “Just do it” (what needs to be done).  Empowered and distributed leaders emerge.  I think that is what I am observing today, and thankfully, many of those leaders are young and talented.  They abound among the musicians, in theatre, in the arts – –  in addition to the usual places you might expect.  Even retirees are taking on the challenges in various ways.

The actions of the Corporatocracy have been bold and extreme.   They are digging us deeper and deeper into violence.   This is no time for timidity, in my humble opinion.

MOVING ON:

The last For Your Selection I sent out was   July 12

In it I suggested:  If you have time for only one posting, make it the Artur Pawlowski update.

I went to Lethbridge, AB for the sentencing of Pawlowski scheduled for  August 9th 

The use of the Justice system to silence citizens has to be stopped.   You get a fair trial.   It’s not fair if you have to pay literally a million dollars in lawyer bills to get to an Appeal Court to establish your innocence (which Pawlowski did, which Pawlowski COULD do, but only because of crowd-funding).

And then have to start over again in a Provincial Court with charges of mischief (criminal), looking at potentially 10 years in jail. ~~~

On August 9th I showed up at the Court House early, to ensure a seat in the Court Room.   I entered the Court House and went through Security 3 times, trying to find in which Court Room the sentencing of Pawlowski would take place.  FINALLY,  one of the fellows working the Security line said aloud,  the Sentencing has been postponed to September 18th (The person at the desk inside the Court House, sitting at a computer, would not give me that info.)  . . .

I am returning to Lethbridge for Sept 18th.
