Comments by rural Albertans:
Bruce Jackson just posted a one hour presentation by Dr. Kevin Timoney about the collusion and corruption of the AER. All facts that McLachlin , Abella and the whole SCC were very much aware of when they made their Ernst v Encana non-ruling with provision for financial punishment. And to think that I sat in the SCC peanut gallery listening to the AER lawyer 
Glenn Solomon recite lies that all the judges knew to be lies and Cory WanlessErnst’s ex lawyer who was in training at the time, after he got what he wanted out of Ernst, abruptly quit, who had an opportunity to speak against those lies chose not to address them. To top it off today the SCC refused to hear the appeal by the Yukon Govt against a defunct zinc mine that left the Yukon Govt with a huge envi. liability. The SCC is running the Ultimate Corporate Protection racket. It’s also the ultimate rapist and pedophile protector, with then Chief J Beverley McLachlin gallingly wagging her almighty fingers at victims.
The Alberta Mayors are all “ Your Worship” … to me that is much worse. Bend kneel and worship.

Thank you to the Courts for these important reforms. This approach to honorifics used in the courtroom is much better aligned with gender inclusion, anti-colonialism, and reconciliation
David M. Brown@davidmjbrown· Replying to @BCCourtofAppeal:
Thank you. This is an important step in making our courts inclusive and approachable institutions.
David Sterns@david_sterns Replying to @BCCourtofAppeal:
Glad to hear that. Most other courts jettisoned those archaic titles decades ago.
G Ketchum@GKetchum2 Replying to @BCCourtofAppeal:
Thank goodness. Can we get rid of “your worship” for mayors, too? It’s insane.
Bill Sundhu@bsundhu· Replying to @BCCourtofAppeal:
What took ya’ so long? It’s been long overdue. Thank you.
UPDATE: ADDRESSING JUDGES Announcement by The Courts of British Columbia, Nov 18, 2021
The BC Court of Appeal and BC Supreme Court have decided to eliminate the practice of addressing justices as “my lady”, “my lord”, “your ladyship” or “your lordship”.
For more information, please see the revised Court of Appeal Practice Directive, Appearing before the Court and the new Supreme Court Practice Direction, Form of Address.
Practice Direction, Form of Address Effective Date: 2021/11/18 Number: PD-60
Summary
This Practice Direction directs how counsel, litigants, witnesses and others are to address a justice in a courtroom.
Addressing Judges
- A justice is to be addressed as “Chief Justice”, “Associate Chief Justice”, “Justice”, “Madam Justice”, or “Mr. Justice”as the context requires.
- The use of the terms“My Lord”, “My Lady”, “Your Lordship”, and “Your Ladyship” is to be avoided.
Christopher E. Hinkson, Chief Justice

My ex lead lawyer, Murray Klippenstein, oozed over the top groveling with the lordship crap, especially after he quit my lawsuit (pissing on the rules of his profession). Pathetic and in my view, trying to put me down (to punish me for going public with him quitting, lying to me and withholding my property?). What a shit show my legal representation turned out to be. A dreadfully expensive, dishonest, insulting, cruel, harmful, patriarchal shit show.
After the game the King and pawn go into the same box.
Italian proverb
Better to walk through hell than succumb to Canada’s rotten corporate, regulatory and legal systems gagging me via delay after delay after delay (the longest by the Supreme Court of Canada); lie after lie after lie; smear after smear after smear (crazy lady to criminal to terrorist by AER – without any arrests or charges or fingerprinting, to Supreme Court of Canada Justice Rosalie Abella pulling magic out of her ass, changing AER judging me to be a criminal then terrorist to vexatious litigant, all without any evidence filed or argued, and without me given the chance to file my evidence proving her magic wrong); ex-PM Steve Harper’s anti-terrorist squad invading my property trying to terrify me silent after the defendants were served their legal papers; my ex legal lead Murray Klippenstein bullying me, lying to me in writing and lying by omission about me to the court in a “sworn” Affidavit (ordered sealed by the court so I am unable to send it to the Law Society of Ontario, the legal industry’s self-regulator), running out my lawsuit’s clock withholding my website, trust funds and files, and long after he was no longer my lawyer, cruelly stressing and threatening me with loss of my home trying to make me let him “wind down” (gag me) my lawsuit; etc. All that while I endure living with PTSD from many rapes as a child.
I’m still hauling alternate water (hard work for a senior living alone in Alberta) 17 years after Encana illegally frac’d multiple fresh water aquifers in my community and hundreds of gas wells in the fresh water zones around the community.
Historic records for my water well on file with the regulator state “Gas Present: N0.”
The regulator removed these records from their database in about 2010, edited out the “No” replacing it with a blank (they did this to all the historic records for water wells contaminated with gases after frac’ing in Alberta).
2003: Encana/Ovintiv tests on my water before the company frac’d the aquifers that supply my well did not report gas present. Encana thereafter lied to the media and on the company website, saying I refused to cooperate and did not let them test my water, in classic blame the victim deflection. Interviewers on live radio were most upset with me when I countered with results from Encana’s very own tests on my water.
Alberta regulators also blamed the victims, saying we contaminated our drinking water aquifers by being dirty.
