Ontario Auditor General addresses the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority

The 25 page report proffered by our Ontario Auditor General addressed every area we could expect, with one exception.

Without dwelling on what was in the exhaustive report regarding the failures of former NPCA boards or the conduct of NPCA executives we will simply supply a response to the exception.  
.
This Link takes you to the 'News Alert Niagara' study in political Corruption.
.
Below you will find just 12 of the many stories pointing out the horrendous stories of abuse suffered by Canadian Citizens at the hands of Conservation Authorities.


1.
Here is a story of a couple who did everything right to start their little business in Welland, Ontario only to be destroyed by the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority. (NPCA)
On top of going back to college, getting all required permits and even paying $thousands for an environment assessment the NPCA crushed them after their first few sales and on what basis? 
On the basis of connected underground aquifers, a non-existent Black Gum Tree and a dead turtle skeleton in the roadside ditch. 
The Laws permitting this lunacy run closely akin to the old witch-craft trials.

2.
Then there is the story of a couple who made the big mistake of purchasing a so-called ‘Provincially Significant Wetland’ predicated on their love of all things in nature.
Mistake, because taking on the obligation as official PSW managers, they have suffered harassment, extortion and even malicious prosecution, which the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority has been known for in the past. 
The Niagara Regional Government not only condones this specious conduct, but they even participate by lending regional staff time and facilities including their legal department.

3.
This crime story began when Conservation authority drained ‘CONSERVATION Land’ onto the White Family farm. Mr. White senior died under the strain of illicit litigation leaving Son Dave and his Mother to carry on defending their innocence against NPCA employee perjurers, who were themselves terminated for not lying good enough!  
Dave complained because the CA was flooding his land. So the Conservation Authority simply changed the designation of Dave’s land to wetland and charged him and his mother with farming a wetland. After four years in court, their entire life savings was sucked out of them. 
The Region’s lawyer, representing the Conservation Authority asked the judge to have Dave White and his 82-year-old mother thrown into prison for 2 years and he also requested a $50,000 fine plus costs and all this in the NPCA’s failed attempt to pad their bank account. 
However, Dave had proven that the Conservation Authority had changed the mapping and the water course flow in the creeks — amongst other things — to suit their own case. 
In the end, the judge saw through the malicious scheme and chastised Niagara Region's Lawyer for using the court system as a weapon against common people. Still not settled after a full decade of persecution! 

4.
Another failed and costly attempt involved the NPCA in a decades long vendetta against an innocent City of St. Catharines, Ontario resident.
A cabal of so called environment protectors unleashed a tyrannical assault, not only against an innocent citizen, but also against the environment that they are supposed to protect!

5.
Perhaps no other story epitomizes the tyrannical predilection of the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority as that of Mr. Len Greenaway’s story recently written in Niagara this week Newspaper.
The NPCA cannot claim any description other than tyrannical when it accepts donated property and then cuts off common and traditional emergency water supply simply because it has acquired that power!
The NPCA has be getting away with tyranny based on framing their tyranny as conservation!

6.
Other NPCA tyrannical activities include their attempt to destroy the last remaining 'Wetland Forest' in Niagara Falls, Ontario in favor of Rich Chinese Developers!

7.
NPCA Tyrants take custody of popular hiking forest and immediately sell off healthy old growth trees leaving the tree tops cluttering the hiking trails!


8.
NPCA Tyrants allow millions of tons of Carcinogen toxic waste to be piled hundreds of feet high with-in the urban boundaries of Welland , Ontario for a gift of $5million!

9.
NPCA Tyrants expands authority over private property and people’s homes!

10.
The same NPCA tyrants that lord their authority over private citizens and their private property are the same Tyrants that build commercial banquette halls on our much vaunted UNESCO World Biosphere conservation park paid for by the company that created Mount carcinogen! 

11.
After losing their decades-long persecution against an innocent St. Catharines city resident, the NPCA and City convinced a court that by finishing his legal Solar array project he further violated the law under the spurious argument that he created a new development. This corrupted equity theft cost the Citizen additional $thousands!https://newsalertniagara.blogspot.com/2018/07/an-extraordinarily-disgusting-story.html

12.
Consider Jean and Peter Thomas' story because I believe you will find it interesting to learn building a sand ring on your property to exercise horses; will land you in court for over 7 years, fighting for your property rights resulting in huge legal fees, a $600,000 lien on your home and tens of thousands in fines and all because they did NO damage to the environment.https://newsalertniagara.blogspot.com/2018/12/how-does-any-self-respecting-government.html

Niagara Regime at War with Media and Free Speech!


.

It shouldn't have to be pointed out that those we have elected and hired are now continually attempting to stymie the media and silence freedom of speech! 
.
It's bad enough that the Niagara Regime has members among their own ranks who deliberately leak sensitive information or even record in-camera sessions but made even worse by Regime Councilors blaming media for their problems. 
The latest attack on the media has Regime Tyrants blaming the media for suicidal folk jumping from the Burgoyne Bridge. Their theme stems from the much needed media reporting of the $Tens of millions near doubling of the cost of construction, which we still have NO reckoning!
.
This war didn't just start! Hell no! 
This war has been going on for years. The Niagara Regime seems to consider itself to be above the law with the power to control a free press; to make unsubstantiated accusations and to label media as 'Fake News'; confiscate media equipment and refuse to return it; have media physically removed by uninformed police officers; breaking Canada's Criminal Code #423.1 and even setting up a Criminal Mischief violation #430 (1).

Apparently it is the tactic of corrupt regimes to blame and threaten media and free speech for the dastardly crime of exposing the regime's corruption! Concerning is the specter of two former police officers leading the the charge.
.
The Niagara Regional Regime not only refuses to correspond with their victims, they even control who can who cannot make a presentation to the Regime's Council!
.
Looks like the purge of Regime Miscreants did not go far enough since some of what's left have proven they can't be trusted. 
.
So much for "returning that trust"!

Corruption Continues

Theft by any other name is still theft...
.
Definition of theft; taking something that doesn't belong to you!
.
Is it also theft when you illegally give away something that belongs to someone else?
.
It is theft to accept stolen property!
.
The only thing worse than theft is theft perpetrated by government authorities!
.
In Niagara we have suffered collusion, conspiracy, complicity, involvement and corrupt cover-up by past and current government by not protecting the Citizens hard earned money from government insider thieves.

.
Under the leadership of our new Regional Chair, government thieves have gotten away with attempted diversion of public funds and then absolved their crime on the absurd excuse that the criminals have 'suffered enough'!
.
So we've gone from ignoring government corruption on the basis that 'we can only make sure it doesn't happen again' to the corrupt miscreant has "Suffered enough"!
.
Those we have elected and hired would be well advised to listen to their constituents such as the Citizen who wrote "Suffered enough"??? What about the four years of everyone else "suffering" enduring his bullying, arrogance and strong arm tactics? What about the public humiliation of other honest members of Regional Council? What about the blatant conspiracy to defraud taxpayers on a mammoth scale the extent of which is still unknown? His defeat was well deserved - it should not end there ðŸ˜ The "punishment" should fit the "crime" by Linda Babb


.
Corruption continues when authorities protect themselves over the interest of their constituents by absolving themselves of crime and corruption, while they call police on innocent media for calling them out.
.
Those who do not want to be tagged as corrupt should not allow themselves to be associated with corruption. Speak up for yourself!
.
Steal media equipment and still refuse to return it or even correspond to their victim!
.

Please note: Those we have elected and hired have received and read the 'News Alert Blog'.
.
You will notice that not a single one bothered to comment with an correction, explanation or even an objection.

The Great Carmen (Cover-up)


No not Bizet’s famous opera with its powerful Toreador song.

Hell no! This is the Infamous Carmen of Niagara Peninsula Corruption Authority fame with his version of the Tarantella corrupting as much as possible and leaving devastation in his wake.

My first run-in with the now infamous ‘Carmen’ was when he physically assaulted me at a Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA) meeting. While attempting to get an overall shot of the guest speaker Carmen grabbed my focusing hand and camera shoving it against my face painfully dislodging my glasses.
Not finished with me yet he then had the NRP called to trespass me from a publicly funded property for the transgression of photographing at a public meeting as part of a lawful and peaceful media effort to garner information for public dissemination.

Worse, he corrupted an NRP officer by having the officer partake in a Criminal Code violation #423.1. manhandling and ticketing a media reporter under threat of handcuffs and jail.

Carmen even went so far as to state to acquaintances that he was going to sue me! This from a corrupt character who never once summoned up enough courage to reply to even one of the 363 articles which always allow for commentary!

Jump ahead to the December 7, 2017 Regional Council meeting to witness the ‘Fiddle Farting’ around regarding the move to in-camera during the middle of the meeting. At the 119-minute mark you will notice that my camera sits on top of my hat which is atop of my folded scarfe. This protects the camera from landing on a hard surface and also stifles the sound of a heavy camera landing on a desktop.

I believe it is precisely this sound of the camera landing on the desktop that the Region wants to hide. They want to hide the evidence which would prove the criminal code violation of Criminal Mischief #430 (1).

The NRP has informed me the Ombudsman was only given a redacted version of the recording preventing him the opportunity to hear the ‘clunk’ of the camera or the change of sound muffled by the placing and removing of the hat.

The Regional Regime tells me I can retrieve my recorder but only if the incriminating evidence them is redacted.

Interesting how quickly our miscreant authorities want to cry about the injury to their reputation and their defamation but think nothing about the reputation and defamation they cause others.

I had to field months of questions about the ‘recorder under the hat affair’, I was the butte of jokes and even suffered newspaper cartoons.

So much for openness, honesty and transparency of our Niagara Regional Regime! The only thing transparent about this new regime is how they still prevent Citizens from publicly presenting to council that which they don’t want exposed simply by keeping it off the agenda.

When I applied to the NRPSB to ask why Criminal Code violations where not being investigated Chair Gale blocked my efforts on the excuse that the NRPSB cannot interfere with day to day NRP operations.

To all those who asked and those interested in knowing perhaps the Regional Regime’s conduct is just reward for exposing their escalating corruption.

Homelessness


When faced with the specter of the poor and homeless Scrooge asked ‘are there no work-houses; are there no prisons?’

Of course our modern society hasn’t deteriorated to the sordid state of affairs that ‘Dickens’ wrote about. Yet!
.
Predicated on the modern penchant of escalating the cost of keeping a roof over the Citizen’s head, at multiples of the rate of inflation, we are faced with an ever increasing number of homelessness.
.
Never in this writer’s considerable lifetime has there been such a number of Canadian Citizens (Quarter Million) sleeping in the streets!
.
No Mr. Scrooge, we don’t have work houses or debtor’s prisons. We have bus shelters! 
.
Our modern society offers warming centers when the Canadian outdoor temperature dips below zero! 
We offer sleeping bags in place of a roof and tuques for exposed heads!

It has been said that necessity is the mother of invention. It must be true because the lack of affordable housing has caused the invention of thermal paneled tents no doubt to heat water for the tent's shower!
.
We can’t grow prosperity but we can grow government, whose members of ‘good intentions’ turn into squalid equity thieves determined to cover up the cost of their ‘good intentions’.
.
Sorry Ebenezer but we have come a long way since the time of Dickens!
.
Still, if we continue to form autonomous, unaccountable and expensive agencies to do what we were hired and elected to do; if we add layers of ever growing government; discover and invent new ways to squander our resources; make millionaires of public servants; add a dose of inadequacy and a lethal level of corruption then we will, with mathematical certainty, eventually compete with the worst of the worst, present and historic, regimes including the time of Dickens.

“I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.” Winston Churchill

Government Subterfuge


Following the Niagara Regional Council Meeting of January 17, 2019, ‘News Alert Niagara’ posted an article titled ‘License to Loot’ outlining government theft of Canadian Family equity in their private property. Only a commerce-killing socialist would champion a greenspace law of equity-theft without redress and then complain about Bill 66 not having redress!
.
During that same council meeting we witness several presentations regarding the ‘Clean Water Act’.
.
What jumped out at us was the deliberate use, misuse and prevarication of the 2000 Walkerton poison water scandal as if that decades old tragedy was an excuse to repeatedly ignore the years of serious water contamination. The bi-partisan presenter’s foresight seems somewhat lacking and out of date by nearly two (2) decades!
.
News Alert Niagara has been warning of water contamination since 2012 as can be substantiated by the post at the top right-hand side of every one of our articles.

.
News Alert Niagara posted several articles regarding the toxic mountain rising in Welland, Ontario leaching into the Welland River immediately upstream from our drinking water intake!
.

News Alert Niagara Railed against the attempt to rain toxic airborne pollutants over our pristine growing garden of Niagara.

The fact is that, it is government that is responsible for the greater preponderance of water pollution leaving us to speculate that the so-called ‘Clean Water Act’ is just subterfuge as a misleading croc of bovine waste designed to bamboozle the Canadian Citizen!

Dear Hamilton Councilors

Predicated on comments made by your Stewart Beattie I am sending you this 'Study in Corruption'. https://newsalertniagara.blogspot.com/2018/11/a-study-in-elected-corruption-update-8.html

.
The Comments made by your Stewart Beattie do have merit since our Niagara Regional Council fully participated in the Corruption going on at the Niagara Peninsula Conservation (corruption) Authority as did every other level of government and government agencies!
.
However your Stewart Beattie sat like an owl on a post representing Hamilton throughout every disgusting thing the NPCA did to our Citizens and then HE has the unmitigated gall to talk down others!
.
No authority involved with the NPCA can claim innocence or ignorance as to NPCA corruption!
.
Fortunately the electorate put a stop to the NPCA reign of terror and are standing by to make future corrections.
.
Respectfully.
News Alert Niagara
