\"Justice<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your donation equips our legal team to defend freedom in courts of law and in the court of public opinion.  We defend the Charter<\/em> freedoms of expression, association, religion, conscience, mobility, and peaceful assembly, and democracy under the rule of law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Justice Centre lawyers continue to defend Matt and Nicole Alexander, who were abruptly fired from their teaching positions for \u201cnot celebrating and affirming LGBTQ issues.\u201d  There were no complaints against either teacher about failing to treat a student with respect and kindness.  Their union refused to take their grievances to arbitration.  However, we are pleased to announce that the Ontario Labour Relations Board recently ruled against an attempt by the Elementary Teachers\u2019 Federation of Ontario and the Renfrew County District School Board to have the Alexanders\u2019 case dismissed.  No Canadian should be fired for refusing to affirm and celebrate an ideology that contradicts their moral or religious convictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We continue to provide lawyers for BC nurse Amy Hamm, recently found guilty of \u201cunprofessional conduct\u201d by the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives because she said publicly that there are only two genders.  Amy\u2019s professional regulatory body also ordered her to pay $93,639.80 in legal costs.  The legal battles continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On the east coast, Justice Centre lawyers are in court to challenge Nova Scotia\u2019s irrational ban on walking in the woods, imposed by Premier Tim Houston.  Our lawyers represent Jeff Evely, a veteran of the Canadian Armed Forces.  Conservation officers fined him $28,872.50 for merely walking in the woods.  This anti-human law views people as the problem, rather than targeting higher-risk activities like smoking, campfires and cooking in dry, wooded areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We continue to defend peaceful Freedom Convoy protestor Chris Barber against the Crown\u2019s demand that his truck, \u201cBig Red,\u201d be seized and that he spend the next eight years of his life in prison.  To imprison a man who sought and followed legal advice while peacefully protesting harmful Covid vaccine mandates would bring the administration of justice into disrepute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Justice Centre lawyers represent Terry Francois in a Federal Court case highlighting serious concerns about accountability and due process within First Nations governance.  The Indigenous father of five was banished without warning from his home and family on the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation reserve in Manitoba.  \u201cI was totally shocked. I felt crushed,\u201d said Mr. Francois. \u201cI\u2019ve worked all my life and raised five girls on my own. I didn\u2019t think this could happen.\u201d   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our lawyers continue to defend peaceful protestor Evan Blackman, who was arrested and charged with mischief and obstruction for his involvement in the 2022 Freedom Convoy.  Now, a court has ordered the RCMP and TD Bank to produce records related to the freezing of his bank accounts.  This ruling marks a significant step in the first Charter <\/em>challenge to the freezing of personal bank accounts under the Emergencies Act.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Justice Centre continues to collect petition signatures against Bill C-2, the Strong Borders Act<\/em> (which I prefer to call the \u201cStrong Surveillance Act\u201d<\/em>).The Bill would grant the federal government new regulatory powers over electronic service providers and would allow law enforcement to conduct warrantless searches.  The Bill would also outlaw cash transactions of $10,000 or more, which opens the door to eventually outlawing all cash payments and donations.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I invite you to join the 35,000 Canadians who have signed our petition (www.jccf.ca\/petitions<\/a>) calling upon the Prime Minister of Canada to strike the criminalization of cash, and to table legislation protecting Canadian\u2019s right to use cash of any amount for legal transactions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My new book, Corrupted by Fear: How the Charter was betrayed and what Canadians can do about it<\/em>, is a #1 Bestseller on Amazon, with over 3,500 copies sold since January.  Corrupted by Fear<\/em> exposes how some judges repeated the media narrative in their Covid court rulings, rather than considering the evidence that was placed before them in court.  The paperback, eBook and audiobook versions are available at Amazon.ca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deadline to enter the 2025 Brandon Langhjelm Memorial Essay Contest is fast approaching \u2013 October 26, 2025.  This year, we invite Canadians aged 15 to 25 to write on either the value of privacy or on the balance between freedom of religion and state neutrality.  Learn more about this contest at www.jccf.ca\/essay-contest<\/a>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Justice Centre has released a new report, \u201cPost-Covid Canada: The rise in unexplained deaths<\/em>,\u201d available at www.jccf.ca\/reports<\/a>.  Statistics Canada data shows that more Canadians are dying after the government imposed lockdowns and vaccine mandates.  According to Statistics Canada, the 2022 and 2023 death rate for children was 15% higher than in the years before lockdowns, and deaths among Canadians under the age of 45 are up by more than a quarter. Drug overdose deaths are up by 55%, and alcohol-induced deaths are up 18%.  The additional deaths among children and younger Canadians were not caused by Covid.  Incredibly, there was a 26% increase in Covid deaths after<\/u><\/strong> most Canadians had been injected with Covid vaccines.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Central Bank Digital Currency brochure educates Canadians about the dangers of Central Bank Digital Currency.  If you would like extra copies to give away to friends, neighbours and family, please email info@jccf.ca<\/a> or call our office at 403-475-3622<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your continued support, which allows us to defend the free society in 2025.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yours sincerely, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
