Thieves Monopolize Courthouse

April 3, 2009 permalink

The latest attempt to silence Chris Carter is a letter from the Waterloo Regional Police. The police accuse him of creating a disturbance by yelling, swearing and intimidating both Children’s Aid Society workers and members of the public. What Mr Carter has really done is discuss the antics of children's aid with families waiting in the courthouse. Other families have listened in, eventually creating an audience of a dozen people. He has not yelled profanity. Actual subjects have included the Waterloo litigation championship, names of CAS workers engaging in dirty tricks, the right of parties to record in court, the practice of altering transcripts, Justice Hardman's boast of never having ruled against CAS, the differences between public statements of CAS (such as their websites) and courtroom tactics, and the bias in parenting capacity assessments. The real reason to ban Mr Carter is not that he is disruptive, but that he is effective.

Mr Carter has obtained about 50 signatures on a petition asking the Minister of Children and Youth Services to exercise her power under section 22 of the Child and Family Services Act to replace the directors of a derelict children's aid society, or take over its management. He has not presented it to the ministry out of fear of retaliation against the signers.

In his courthouse experiences Mr Carter has noticed that the same policemen who professionally keep the peace for the court are privately sympathetic to the parents. This mirrors the experience of Aneurin Ellis. While child protectors were conniving to steal children from him and his pregnant wife, a court worker privately handed him the name of a midwife to help avoid theft of his next baby.
