Update: Sunday October 24th 2010.

On Sunday October 24th 2010 approximately 1:50 pm two NRP officers came to my home. I recorded the whole conversation it lasted 8 min. 37 seconds. These two officers came with the intention to intimidate and harass only. They did not identify themselves. The whole transcript follows. You will see contradictions and comments made by the two officers that make no sense.
First officer says “You obviously know why we’re here.” How could I? They took no notes, no details for the record. My three children and wife were in the room as one stood with his hands on his hip and on his gun. It appears the reason why them came was because of a flyer dropped into the mailbox of Burch and Stevens. This flyer is also attached. One officer said that Stevens contacted “us today,” not that Stevens called the police but “us”. Yet the flyer was delivered by volunteers the day before. You will see statements made by the officer of what Stevens had said and my replies. The officers made false statements they did not ask questions, they did not write anything for the record as any officer has to do. An incident report has to be filed by these two mercenaries how would it be possible when not one word was written down by them, not one word written for the record. The officer who came on Friday October 22nd wrote pages of notes, asked for my name, date of birth even of my three children. He knew he was being recorded and stayed over 35 minutes.

These two came only to intimidate and harass. Nothing about them was official or proper. No incident report, at least a legitimate one, can be filed by them. They took no notes! They asked no real questions only made accusations based on lies by Stevens and Burch. They used the first names of both Stevens and Burch? Nothing was part of normal procedure. They made the claim that I served legal papers on Mrs. Pat Lindal. That was a lie and I said I was only one of two witnesses and that Mr. Preston Haskell had served the legal papers as the publisher of the newsletter WINNERS CIRCLE after Mrs. Pat Lindal threatened and harassed advertisers in the newsletter. Now Burch claims he was the only one who got this flyer on the whole street. Queenston Street is an extremely long street, had he gone to each house? A lie! My volunteers delivered the flyers not me and both Burch and Stevens lied!

I told these two officers, or mercenaries that they are being recorded. They make a noise, a sigh of shock. Then one says, “Now that I know I’m being recorded. I’m gonna cut it short…” They both panicked. They came as thugs and mercenaries with hands on their hips and guns in front of my children and wife. They came with one purpose and it was to intimidate and threaten on behalf of two Merritton Councillors who can not allow the truth to be public. Councillor Stevens knows she and McMullan committed a corrupt act and cannot allow this to be public. Councillor Burch has much to answer and cannot allow it to be public. Two uniformed officers of the Niagara Regional Police were used in an attempt to silence the truth. These two officers came in breach of the Charter of Rights and the guarantee that all Canadians have of freedom of speech and expression. These two officers of the NRP had committed criminal harassment on behalf of Councillor Burch and Councillor Stevens. Every effort will now be made to have charges of criminal harassment laid against both these NRP officers and Councillors Burch and Stevens. In addition the Niagara Regional Police Department and Councillors Burch and Stevens will face civil law suites.

We have all read about the horrors of what happened in Toronto with the G8 Summit and police thuggery. Here in St. Catharines two elected councillors have used officers in uniform of the NRP to silence the truth.


THE TRUTH WILL NOT BE SILENCED NOR WILL I
COUNCILLOR JENNIE STEVENS!

THE TRUTH WILL NOT BE SILENCED NOR WILL I
COUNCILLOR JEFF BURCH!

Chief Southall will have a letter explaining the whole situation and a copy of the recorded voices of her thugs delivered within days. Solicitors are being asked to prepare all necessary action against the NRP Department, Councillor Stevens and Councillor Burch.

Transcript of 2 NRP officers, October 24th 2010
Sent by Councillor Stevens and Councillor Burch
(to the residence of Alexander Davidoff, with wife and 3 children present)

A.D. - Hi.

Officer 1 - Mr. Davidoff.

A.D. - That’s me.

Officer 1 - How are you?

A.D. - Wonderful, come on in.

Officer 1 - Mind if we have a chat?

A.D. - No, not at all.

Officer 1 - O.K. good.

A.D. - Come on in, sit down.

Officer 2 - Everyone’s here.

A.D. - Yea, so we’ve just about to go out to do more of our work.

Officer 1 - Um, you obviously know why we’re here.

A.D. - No.

Officer 1 - O.K. we’re here because Jennie Stevens contacted us today.

A.D. - Oh, yea.

Officer 1 - O.K., in regards to I guess that some issues you’ve guys have had before in the past.

A.D. - I have no idea what issues so you’re gonna have to tell me.

Officer 1 - O.K. She has explained to us that here this has been an ongoing thing between you and her I guess.

A.D. - What is? O.D. - (A.D’s wife): What is ongoing?

Officer 1 - Apparently there’s documents served under her mother.

A.D. - Got nothing to do with me.

Officer 1 - The fact that you were there.

A.D. - I was brought in only as a witness because there was three of us as witnesses. So it has nothing to do with me whatsoever. It’s Preston Haskell, the publisher of a newsletter, nothing to do with me.

Officer 1 - The way that she’s explained.

A.D. - She’s lied.

Officer 1 - We’re not going to take any sides, because she’s contacted us and we are just explaining.

A.D. - She’s said to you that I’ve had something to do with the documents?

Officer 1 - No, she said that the documents served under her mother, you were there.

A.D. - Oh, that was because Preston Haskell asked for several witnesses, there was another individual there as well.

Officer 1 - There was three people there.

A.D. - Correct.


Officer 1 - O.K., so she feels that because you were there and you were directly involved with the complaint.

A.D. - I had no complaint against her. I’ve never made a complaint against her.

Officer 1 - Oh, so there ‘s no complaints, no complaints that are with you against her. O.K., she, what she has explained to us is that there’s this ah, this publication ah, called the Winners, Niagara Winners Circle. Something like that.

A.D. - Winners Circle yea, I can even give you a copy if you want.

Officer 1 - She showed me a copy.

A.D. - O.K.

Officer 1 - and I guess, I don’t know a lot about the document, I don’t know what it’s about, um its issues that ah the local residents have about the city and the ah…

A.D. - it’s a newsletter published by a retired…please if you wish make yourself comfortable!

Officer 1 - No, we sit, we sit all day so.

A.D. - O.K., ah it’s a newsletter. Preston Haskell, I don’t know if you’ve heard of him, he was in the mayoral race, he’s a local political, I don’t know what you call, activist, spokesperson. Ah, he’s also one of the premier photographers and his son runs a photography studio. Now, he and a group of retired businessmen have the group called Winners Circle and they publish that newsletter and they get volunteers, anybody who wants to deliver to help them deliver it because they, um, the cost of having it delivered with newspapers is astronomical. That’s, that’s the Winners Circle to give you the background of the Winners Circle.

Officer 1 - O.K., so what she’s explaining to us is that I guess there was something put in there about the way that she’s been running a ward. Ah, there was something actually from you apparently in there.

A.D. - Ah, there is nothing in there from me. And if you’ve looked at it you would have seen there is nothing in there by me. I don’t write for them.

Officer 1 - I wasn’t gonna look at it.

A.D. - But just to let you know, I don’t write for them I don’t do anything. You can confirm everything with Mr. Haskell. I can even give you his phone number if you wish. Ah, Winners Circle has nothing to do with me nor I with them.

Officer 1 - O.K. then why were you there serving a document on her mother?

A.D. - I was not serving it, I was there as a witness. I was not serving anything.

Officer 1 - So what, what connection do you have with the Winners Circle?

A.D. - I know Preston! Mr. Haskell, Preston Haskell, whichever way you want it, right, and I’ve known Preston for a long time, oh, I’m explaining it to you , oh heavens no problem! I’ve known Preston for quite a while ah, we’ve worked on issues such as environmental, um, I was involved in a massive environmental issue here through the Environmental Commissioner, Ministry of Environment, it was huge right, and he wrote about it, in the newsletter, and actually so did both the newspapers um, I’ve known Preston for a long while.

Officer 1 - O.K., um I guess another issue that they were concerned about was, ah, Jeff Burch.

A.D. - aha?

Officer 1 - I guess was concerned that ah because of these issues that Jennie’s been having or she’s thinks she’s been having these issues with you - ah, he received a pamphlet in the mail ah, it was three documents, and one was.

A.D. - It was a flyer?

Officer 1 - Yea, one was a flyer with your information. Another was a um, a flyer with another councillor’s information another one was a, a, issues with the two councillors, the two ah, Merritton ward councillors, um, he was concerned because he was the only one that got that on the whole street he asked…


A.D. - Well, that’s up to the volunteer number one, she, the volunteer ran out of flyers so that was when she delivered three hundred and eighty I think that day.

Officer 1 - O.K.

A.D. - So that’s up to uh Sharon, she ran out so she’s out there trying to do more.

Officer 1 - We’ll say that it’s total coincidence. For some reason they’re concerned for their safety, they’re intimidated by you, O.K. I am just telling you what they told me.

A.D. - O.K., please do.

Officer 1 - They’re intimidated by you, ah.

A.D. - In what way?

Officer 1 - They feel that, ah, well apparently somebody was at her door this morning at five o’clock.

A.D. - Shore as hell wasn’t me. So she can lie all she wants to.

Officer 1 - She didn’t say it was you, she’s concerned it might have been you though because you’ve got something going on with her so, ah…

A.D. - Just to let you know all of its being recorded and continue.

Officer 1 - O.K. (sigh)

A.D. - This is an insanity. But you know, just to let you know, just before she, do you know I am a candidate in the election?

Officer 1 - Yeah.

A.D. - O.K.

Officer 1 - She mentioned that, yea.

A.D. - And when as a candidate in any election, if you raise a question regarding another candidate right, how can that individual then carry on with being concerned? This sounds like that moron D’Intino.

Officer 1 - I’m gonna…..now that I know I’m being recorded I’m gonna cut it short and I’m gonna tell you that she doesn’t want you on her property.

A.D. - I don’t intend to and never have been. I have been once when I was delivering the newsletter.

Officer 1 - She doesn’t want you on her property, Jeff doesn’t want you on his property. O.K.

A.D. - I haven’t been on his property.

Officer 1 - She’s concerned for her safety, and that was addressed to us. So you’ve been told not to go on her property.

A.D. - I guarantee you.

Officer 2 - Or any of your representatives or assistants….

A.D. - Well it’s all been done with, the election finishes tomorrow.

Officer 1 - Just so that you know O.K., and that’s the reason why we’re here.

A.D. - Aha.

Officer 1 - O.K., any questions?

A.D. - Oh god no! Um, Jennie Stevens has claimed, and Burch, that they’re intimidated by me, is that right?

Officer 1 - Right.

A.D. - O.K., and just so that you know for yourselves when we had the Merritton, ah, hall meeting, I forgot the date, all the candidates right, and we made it clear because a lot of residents here have been asking the question of Burch. He’s refused to talk to anyone, it has to do with the environmental issue here. So the flyer that’s out there simply asking the question why do you ignore your Merritton residents, I’m happy to even give you one if you wish. The question to Jennie is again a Merritton residents’ question asking her to explain why are you ignoring, not me, but dozens of residents, right. Ah, once in the summer when the kids and I, we were volunteers and we delivered the newsletter around, she didn’t want the newsletter and I have her recorded and she said to me she doesn’t want me on her property and I told her point blank never again. Ah, volunteers as you might know, they go do a street. They don’t know who lives where, right, they just simply volunteer to deliver a flyer because of the election, so for this woman to claim this I am very happy she has and ah, she’s nuts.

Officer 1 - This has nothing to do with us.

A.D. - O.K.

Officer 1 - we’re done here.

A.D. - O.K.

Officer 1 - O.K.

A.D. - Thank you.

Officer 1 - Thank you for that.

A.D. - Thank you very much.

Update: October 22 at 3:35 pm.

Update: October 22 at 3:35 pm.

Today October 22 at 3:35pm Mayor McMullan called me on my cell phone with a blocked ID. His secretary spoke and asked if I would take a call from the mayor. McMullan like any hypocrite first wished me “well” for Monday. Then he said “your blog you call me corrupt I have referred this to my solicitors in Toronto” my reply was “wonderful” and I hung up.

McMullan You Have Threatened me with your Toronto solicitors carry it through!


Now publicly I tell you McMullan I would want nothing more than to dance with you in a public forum such as a court! Corruption is not dollar valued! Whether it is ‘one million’ or ‘126’ or even only ‘1 dollar’, a corrupt act is simply a corrupt act. My blog has been available since May 2010 you have been successful with the Standard to censor the truth. Now Bergsma and Mr. Peter Downs have both lied and printed lies to protect you.

On this blog is the voice of Merritton Ward Councillor Jennie Stevens, the telephone answering machine message she left, you can listen to her or read the transcript. I have never said City Hall is corrupt. You lie if you claim that. The Standard reporters Bergsma and Downs are liars! I have said that Mayor Brian McMullan is corrupt and committed a corrupt act! I have said Merritton Ward Councillor Jennie Stevens is corrupt and committed a corrupt act! You McMullan won’t face me not at Brock University or anywhere else. You McMullan make telephone threats of Toronto solicitors. I have the voice of Councillor Stevens after I and my children delivered the summer edition of the newsletter Winners Circle. Stevens came running and threatened me “you will hear from my solicitor.” (Aug. 24th 2010). Do you want to hear her voice? I have it recorded! That was months ago. Now you threaten me!

I ask you McMullan if you want to hear another voice I recorded today October 22nd 2010. This is a uniformed police officer of the NIAGARA REGIONAL POLICE. He came to my home at approximately 11:00 am and stayed for 35 minutes, 17 seconds. He was sent to get background information on the Pat Lindal letters of threat and harassment. (You know Councillor Stevens’ mother!) I recorded the whole session with the officer. I won’t use his voice here but this is of great importance. These words are of the NRP officer and again I say that I have him recorded! When he, the officer, asks what set Lindal off I explain the blog and the voice message of Councillor Stevens. This uniformed police officer then says, “There is only one way to deal with a by-law fine if you disagree with it, you go to court.” He goes on to explain how a judge makes the final decision at the Provincial Offences Court. This is the voice of an NRP uniformed police officer McMullan! You and Stevens fixed a lawful by-law fine. You McMullan and Stevens breached the Municipal Act, the Charter of Rights and perjured your Oath of Office. You McMullan and Councillor Stevens committed a corrupt act. Only you McMullan and Councillor Stevens have I called corrupt, no one else!

You McMullan made the public statement that these allegations are groundless! You McMullan and the Standard have censored the truth from the public of St.Catharines. You McMullan and the Standard have in fact fixed an election so the public don’t get to hear all the information. Bergsma and Downs of the Standard have lied and published the lie. The Standard has with full intent kept the truth from the people of St.Catharines and had a reason to do so. The truth would destroy you McMullan and you can’t have that. Why did you not let the people of St. Catharines listen or read the transcript of Councillor Stevens’ voice? I know the reason and so do you McMullan!

You McMullan now threaten me with Toronto lawyers over the phone in a cowardly fashion. I tell you, get those Toronto lawyers and you and I will go into the public arena of a court. Everyone can listen to Councillor Stevens’ voice and let the judge decide! I will publish on the blog your Toronto lawyer’s letter and if no one comes I will update the blog every few days. I have wanted this public from the beginning and now eagerly await your Toronto lawyers!

Finally to Mr. Peter Downs of the Standard. You lied! Once again the Standard lies. Most of what you wrote was darn good and correct, rather unusual for a Standard reporter. But you lied Mr. Downs in paragraph number 8. You lied without checking the facts and had that lie printed. I quote you:

Davidoff has maintained that city hall is corrupt because a Merritton neighbour’s fine for failing to shovel a snowy walk was reversed when the neighbour was able to offer a satisfactory explanation to city staff and promised to shovel his sidewalk in the future.

You lied Mr. Downs and I have a statement by that individual who had the fine fixed by McMullan and Stevens. Bergsma lied and now so have you. Did you bother to look at the blog or listen to the voice of Stevens? Somehow I think not. You only copied Bergsma right? But you did make one subtle change didn’t you? Notice it? Look at Bergsma’s lie of October 14th and now look at yours! You Mr. Downs lied. Why???

Mr. Downs I am not D’Intino. I don’t contradict myself when I talk to someone nor do I claim international hackers or conspiracies. You sir didn’t talk to me at Brock did you? You know you didn’t and yet you wrote that lie. You know I have witnesses at the Brock Forum so why write and print a lie? You had to know it was a lie. WHY LIE???

Finally McMullan out-sourcing again. Could you not find local lawyers to threaten me with or have too many local lawyers seen and heard the blog?

Update: You are a liar Bergsma!!!

MARLENE BERGSMA, STANDARD STAFF REPORTER LIED
October 14th 2010, Page A3


Direct quote: “The unemployed Merritton environmentalist is campaigning on an allegation that city hall is corrupt because a neighbour’s fine for failing to shovel a snowy walk was reversed when the neighbour was able to offer a satisfactory explanation to city staff and promised to shovel his sidewalk in the future.”

MARLENE BERGSMA YOU ARE A LIAR!
THE ST.CATHARINES STANDARD, PUBLISHER, SENIOR EDITOR AND CITY EDITOR YOU ARE LIARS!


All the evidence including the transcript and voice recording of Councillor Stevens’ answering machine message is on this blog. The Standard has censorsed the truth from the public for months. Now in an election campaign Mayor McMullan has fear that the truth is made public so Bergsma lies to save him. Why else would Bergsma make a public lie, an intentional lie, have it published and distributed in the thousands including on the web?

You are a liar Bergsma! First of all Mark Leeson is not a neighbour, look at a map of Merritton.

You are a liar Bergsma! Second lie, I have not said at any time, including to you, that city hall is corrupt. I have said that Mayor McMullan is corrupt! I have said that Merritton Ward Councillor Jennie Stevens is corrupt!

You are a liar Bergsma! Third lie, the By-Law fine under By-Law 2008-315 was not reversed by city staff. The lawful by-law fine was fixed by Mayor McMullan. Mark Leeson had tried to explain to city staff that he had gone away to Cuba and was not there to shovel the snow. City staff told him that as he knew he was going to be away from home he should have organised that someone shovel his sidewalk. Lesson was told the fine stood. He then called Councillor Stevens and the result was the answering machine message.


You are a liar Bergsma! Fourth lie, the explanation by Leeson was not taken as satisfactory and he was told the fine stood.

You are a liar Bergsma! Fifth lie, Mark Leeson never promised anyone at city that he would shovel his sidewalk in the future.

When Mark Leeson read this he could only laugh at you and your lies.





Who put Marlene Bergsma, a St.Catharines Standard long time staff reporter to lie? Who has everything to lose once I take legal action? Who has lied to the public? Who has a campaign on nothing but falsehoods? Who has a political career in jeopardy when the truth is fully public? Mayor McMullan! Merritton Ward Councillor Jennie Stevens! I have never said anything about city hall. I have said and still say now Mayor McMullan and Councillor Jennie Stevens are corrupt. Mayor McMullan is in breach of the Municipal Act. Mayor McMullan is in breach of the Charter of Rights. Mayor McMullan has committed perjury of Oath of Office. Councillor Stevens has breached the Municipal Act, Charter of Rights and has perjured her Oath of Office. Marlene Bergsma has lied and her superiors allowed the lie to be published. There has to be a reason.



The actions by Councillor Stevens and Mayor McMullan have also brought more action. A local newsletter published by The Winners Circle had broken the story in their Summer Edition. They printed a transcript of Councillor Stevens’ answering machine message. Truth is a dangerous weapon to corrupt elected public servants. Councillor Stevens didn’t like this at all. Her mother, Mrs. Pat Lindal didn’t like this at all. Now Mrs. Pat Lindal is a candidate in the Municipal Elections for Regional Council. Mrs. Pat Lindal if elected would have to swear an oath to serve the community and all its members equally and fairly without bias. Mrs. Pat Lindal didn’t like the fact her little girl was caught committing a corrupt act. Mrs Pat Lindal didn’t like the fact that this corrupt act by her little Jennie was being made public. So Mrs. Pat Lindal sent harassing letters to all the small businesses who advertised in the newsletter. That was not enough to these corrupt cowards as threatening and harassing phone calls by male and female voices followed to the same business owners. Mrs. Pat Lindal is asking the people, all the people to trust her and elect her to serve them equally, pretty much the same as what her daughter did. Mrs. Pat Lindal committed an act of harassment, threat and bullying.

I contacted the Ministry for Municipal Affairs as they administer the Municipal Elections Act. I was instructed by representatives of the ministry to inform the local police as this is a criminal act and to take legal action to enforce the Municipal Elections Act. I have sent everything to the police under the attention of Chief Southall. No action to date. Mrs. Pat Lindal has been served written notice that legal action is being filed by the publisher of The Winners Circle newsletter, with two witnesses present and Lindal’s voice recorded as she accepted the written notice.

Mrs. Pat Lindal has shown not only her contempt of law but contempt of what it would mean to serve the community in elected public office. Her acts of harassment, threat and bullying are that of a despicable fraud. There were 20 letters sent and numerous phone calls. Her daughter’s corruption was something she wanted to hide.


I TELL YOU MRS. LINDAL YOU WON’T BE SUCCESSFUL! YOUR DAUGHTER COUNCILLOR JENNIE STEVENS IS CORRUPT AND COMMITTED A CORRUPT ACT TOGETHER WITH MAYOR MCMULLAN. IT WILL BE PUBLIC! THE BOTH OF YOU; MRS. PAT LINDAL AND YOUR DAUGHTER COUNCILLOR STEVENS TOGETHER WITH MAYOR MCMULLAN WILL FACE THE PUBLIC AND THE LAW!

YOU MARLENE BERGSMA A LIAR WILL FACE THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR LIES. YOU NOT ONLY KEPT THE FACTS FROM THE PUBLIC AT A TIME OF AN ELECTION YOU ATTEMPTED TO TAMPER WITH THE PROCESS OF AN ELECTION WITH YOUR INTENTIONAL LIE. YOU ARE A LIAR MARLENE BERGSMA OF THE STANDARD!
