Report on the Niagara Peninsula Corruption Authority
Report on the Niagara Peninsula Corruption Authority
Following Mr. Ed Smith’s pointed presentation at the (45:00 Minute Mark) to the NPCA Board of Directors
meeting September 20, 2017 the board members sat in sullen silence without
so much as asking Smith a single question.
As an example Smith picked his ‘smallest case’ concerning the overcharge of ($800.00) for a so-called ‘Freedom of Information’ (FOI) request.
Expanding on Mr. Smith’s example we offer some of the
outrageous behavior foisted on innocent
Niagara Citizens at the hands of the Niagara Peninsula Corruption Authority
all with the approval of the NPCA Board of Directors.
'News Alert Niagara' points out the
true character of the Niagara Peninsula Corruption Authority! (NPCA)
Starting with some of the Niagara Land Owner Association (NLA) many disturbing stories ‘Synopsis of NPCA Tyranny’.

authorized some of the most unbelievable attacks of private property and home
owners including ‘A
Travesty of Justice’, ‘Smoking Gun’

2. Most egregious is the NPCA’s corrupt practice of charging
private property owners and even ‘judge shopping’ over so-called environmental
transgressions, while ignoring the same transgressions perpetrated by developers and friends. Thundering waters being the most significant example!
3. The same NPCA Board Members allowed their staff to promote
their ‘Bovine Waste’ of ‘Bio-diversity off-setting’ scheme in a specious effort
to destroy The
‘Thundering Waters’ Provincially Significant Wetlands slough forest in
favor of development.

we have ‘wetland designation’ placed on valuable properties for insiders to
pick up cheap!

10. Under the direction

21. Under the direction of the NPCA board of DIRECTORS
the NPCA arrogantly called concerned Citizens a 'Special interest group' and "Fringe group of complaining people!
22. Under the direction of the NPCA board of DIRECTORS the NPCA totally destroyed Mark Barnfield over trumped-up charges even though Barnfield already had permits for non-permanent paint ball facilities, while the cunning NPCA board built a commercial banquet hall in competition with private enterprise.

Worse they built this
competitive commercial banquet hall on a UNESCO
World Biosphere Park-Balls Falls!
23. Under the direction of the NPCA board of DIRECTORS the NPCA want us to believe that their sins of the past are in their past and that they have changed! However they still have innocent Citizens trapped in our judiciary and they have yet to make amends for past conduct.
24. Under the direction of the NPCA board of DIRECTORS 'News Alert Niagara' has been accused of having a number of untrue statements in this article 'A Study in Corruption'!
25. Under the direction of the NPCA board of DIRECTORS the NPCA refuses to address the alleged 'untrue statements' even when asked several times to do so!
Under the direction of the NPCA the board of DIRECTORS can possibly be excused for their silence given that their inappropriate oath and their non-disclosure contact to this dodgy secret society is overly onerous as can be witnessed at the 5:00 Minute Mark of their swearing in ceremony. Please note the absence of mention regarding conservation of our environment or to the society that pays their freight.
Under the direction of the alleged 'Special interest group' and "Fringe group of complaining people", the NPCA board of DIRECTORS are all welcome to leave along with the Politicos they rode in on!

Our
present system breeds corruption. We need to be able to hold all
politicians accountable for their actions, by way of suing them
personally, of their own money. It would not stop all corruption, but
at least it would drop the level of corruption we are witnessing in
today's society. The democracy we have right now has no deterrent built
into the system to stop corruption. If we sue a politician, it costs us
tens of thousands of dollars to hire a lawyer. It costs the politician
nothing, he gets to use our tax dollars to pay for his lawyer. If we
win, the monies we receive comes from the taxpayers too. If we lose, we
must pay the politicians legal fees too. No wonder few people sue
these days, it's unaffordable for most people and the risk is too high.
Our inaction gives our politicians a sense of increased power and
entitlement to continue with 'their ways'. I believe this is why
corruption has reached an all time high. Your thoughts?

In the mid 1800's, Sir John Dalberg-Acton, 8th Baronet likely said it best "Power Corrupts and absolute Power Corrupts absolutely....." and to this day, nothing has changed. I find that all Conservation Authorities have too much power not just the NPCA - just some are a little more dishonest than others...Dick Brady
