Polygamy and the Canadian Constitution

Rights charter is from 2009 BC
By Janet Albrechtsen
Here I am in Canada again. And once again I am receiving a few free lessons about a charter of rights. Just about every time I am in this otherwise great country, its Charter of Rights and Freedoms is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Reasons that Australians should be digesting as the push for an Australian charter of rights unfolds this year.
This time in Canada it’s a cracker of a story about a preacher man who has had 26 wives and more than 106 children. Clearly a sucker for punishment, 52-year-old Winston Blackmore, from the aptly named town of Bountiful in British Columbia, was arrested last Wednesday amid much media hoopla and charged with breaching BC’s criminal prohibition on polygamy.
Not taking a backward step, Blackmore says his fundamentalist Mormon beliefs on polygamy are protected by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and that the charter overrides BC’s criminal code….(Full Story)
______________
F4L: Polygamy has been illegal in Canada since many years before Pierre Elliot Trudeau “brought the Constitution home” in 1982. That no cases prosecuting polygamy by some in a few Mormon communities were ever brought to bear is for a good reason. The authorities wanting to launch such an action always feared that they would run the risk that they would lose such a case.
The time is now ripe to bring such a case against polygamy into the court system, where it will most likely make it up to the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC), whereupon it stands a good chance to be lost and for polygamy to become legal, as that appears to fit in with the agenda for social engineering that the SCC actively promoted since 1982.
SCC justices had always had large powers to engage in social engineering, but they did not have the legal power to do so and to be necessarily successful in trying. Since 1982 they assumed the legal power to usurp the power to legislate (that is, the power to make laws) from our lawfully elected legislators (lawgivers) in provincial and federal elected bodies of government. Since 1982 there has also been a great escalation of rulings by the SCC that illustrate what its agenda for social engineering is and will be.
Since 1982 the SCC justices assumed the power to overrule, by hook and by crook, the wishes of our elected representatives. Ted Byfield, the publisher of the now defunct news magazine, The Report, extensively commented on the growth over the powers of the SCC justices over the years and was given to call the SCC justices “judicial activists” and the “nine kings in purple robes.”
There is absolutely no doubt in the mind of anyone in Canada holding conservative opinions that the SCC is out to re-engineer Canadian society, so as to extinguish and replace the set of moral standards we once held sacred and adhered to. Going by the evidence of the SCC’s decisions since shortly after 1982, the SCC’s agenda promotes: world government; socialism; equality of outcomes; income equalization regardless of the merits earned by achievements; the abolition of the traditional nuclear family; Atheism; Paganism; the abrogation of individual rights for men; supremacy for women, homosexuals and ethnic minorities; the abrogation of traditional moral standards based on the code of ethics of Christian churches, and of the right of men to own and enjoy property and to be able to be the fathers and teachers of their children.
In short, the SCC is the major force driving the conversion of Canada to a socialist state that is to be incorporated into the global socialist world regime. Igor Shafarevich, a Russian and world-renowned mathematician who became a historian in the absence of the historians that were exterminated through the purges that took place in the USSR, summed up the agenda of socialism as follows:
It seems to us quite legitimate to conclude that socialism does exist as a unified historical phenomenon. Its basic principles have been indicated above. They are:
- Abolition of private property.
- Abolition of the family.
- Abolition of religion.
- Equality, abolition of hierarchies in society.
The manifold embodiments of these principles are linked organically by a common spirit, by an identity of specific details and, frequently, by a clearly discernible overall thrust. (Igor Shafarevich, in The Socialist Phenomenon, p. 200)
In writing that, he aptly described the goals for the agenda of our SCC justices.
Our Supreme Court of Canada justices do not consider our Constitution to be a set of laws that they must live by, administer, interpret and apply, but that the Constitution is a living document to be changed as required so that it can be used as the tool by which to implement their agenda for social engineering. Seeing that most of our Supreme Court justices promote judicial advocacy for social changes such as those indicated above, one is forced to ask: By what law did the SCC justices assume the right to become judicial activists and to impose their world view on the Canadian people? (E. g.: SCC Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin’s speeches identified below.)

The [Canadian] Charter — a judicial coup d’etat
By Joanne Byfield, 2003 03 03
If voters don’t support change, government can pay to take it to court - Speech by Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin, “UNWRITTEN CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES: What is Going On?” (Dec. 1, 2005, NZ), in which she argues that the rights of judges must transcend common law, constitutions (it follows that the principles to be overcome by judicial advocacy also include the supremacy of God) and parliamentary principles.
- Remarks of the Right Honourable Beverley McLachlin, P.C.
Chief Justice of Canada: Reaction and Pro-action: Bringing Family Law Advocacy Into the 21st Century (Family Law Dinner, Ontario Bar Association, Toronto, Ontario, Thursday, January 24, 2002)
Beverley McLachlin is by no means the only SCC justice who promoted the role of SCC justices as being the purveyor of radical social change in Canada, with the aim to impose socialism. Nevertheless, neither the people nor their elected representatives ever gave the SCC justices such powers. Our Constitution most certainly never gave them those powers; other than that the SCC justices busily engaged themselves in writing the consequences of their judicial activism into the Constitution.
Given that the SCC justices of Canada are re-writing our Constitution, thereby turning it, step by step and cut by cut, into something the Constitution was not meant to be, the conclusion appears to be unavoidable that our SCC justices are revolutionaries and traitors to our country. They are captives and apostles of the ideology they promote and are no longer the servants of our country but made themselves its masters and tyrants.

Woman sentenced for false rape report
January 14, 2009 by Walter Schneider.
Dayton Daily News, Florida, USA

Staff Writer
Monday, January 12, 2009
TROY — A Wapakoneta woman will be paying authorities $892 for the overtime detectives used to investigate her false claim of being raped.
Melissa Turner, 40, told the sheriff’s office May 19 she was raped on the banks of the Great Miami River, under the Eldean Bridge north of Troy. She admitted May 21 that she had lied, according to court documents.
She pleaded guilty to the felony charge in November and was sentenced Monday, Jan. 12 to community control and order to reimburse the Miami County Sheriff’s Office….
She was ordered to complete two years of community control, fined $1,000 and ordered to make restitution [$892]. If she violates condition of the probation, she faces up to one year in prison….(Full Story)
__________________
F4L: Never mind that she committed a crime that could have brought a man to prison for 25 years to life, her little lie that is so “out of character” cost her for all intents and purposes practically nothing more than a slap on the wrist.
In the US, there are an estimated 520,000 false rape allegations a year — 98.1% of all reported cases. (Eeva Sodhi, Debunking Domestic Violence Statistics; Rape)
There would be far fewer false allegations of rape if the women who lie about having been raped would be sentenced so that it will truly hurt them.
To use false rape allegations to hurt men is violence by proxy.

Harriet Harman is an ultra-feminist gender warrior
January 14, 2009 by Walter Schneider.
Mail Online (U.K.)
2009 01 14
By Melanie Phillips
Harriet Harman is an ultra-feminist gender warrior trapped in a student radical time-warp. Her Orwellian ‘equality’ agenda is not just sinister - it’s unhinged
Today’s White Paper on social mobility should concern anyone who cares about justice and liberty, for it is not about social mobility at all.
It is in fact a blueprint for imposing ‘equality’ through every single arm of government.
Already, every public authority in Britain is legally bound to ensure that policies do not unfairly discriminate on grounds of race, gender, disability or sexuality – a requirement which has actually brought about much injustice. Now they will be similarly bound to bridge the gap between rich and poor….(Full Story)

F4L: Right on! This quote from Milton and Rose Friedman comes to mind:
A society that puts equality—in the sense of equality of outcome—ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality nor freedom. The use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom, and the force, introduced for good purposes, will end up in the hands of people who use it to promote their own interests.
Milton and Rose Friedman
in Free to Choose: A Personal Statement
(Milton Friedman won the 1976 Nobel Prize for Economics)
Other than that, Harriet Harman most certainly used the idiocy of equality of outcomes to feather her own bed. It is no secret that the promotion of that fallacy brings votes, even though it is one of the most effective destroyers of the economies of nations any imbecile ever dreamed up. Find out more about her at http://www.harrietharmansucks.com/. How in the world could anyone in his right mind ever vote for her?
