Today, we were in Caledonia at the Lion's Hall having "Open & Honest Dialogue" with anyone who would show up to hear our message.

Commissioner Fantino was invited and was a no show. In fact Fantino was offered, back in December, that if he had an "Open & Honest Dialogue" with residents in Caledonia then I would not show up on Jan. 20th to raise the Canadian Flag. Fantino was too busy this week going on TV and Radio and doing Newspaper interviews to waste his time speaking with Residents in an "Open" forum.

Outside of name calling there appears to be little the OPP has to say to the public. On Dec. 2nd the OPP called residents "Juvenile". Fantino called me a "bad cold" this week and OPP Sgt. David Rektor called us "Interlopers". I guess that is what it takes to qualify to be Commissioner or a Sergeant - their ability to name call. It truly is a sign of just how bad the OPP position is that they resort to name calling and not presenting a solid legal reason for their actions.

When I consider just how much some people love me or hate me, you can realize that my willingness to go before the town folk to present my case is something NO politician does. They all claim to be accountable, to be accessible and have great claims about being "Open & Honest" but where are the actions to back up their statements.

To date I have had Town Hall Meetings in Caledonia, Cayuga, Brantford and Kitchener. Number of Town Hall Meetings by McGuinty, Ramsay and Fantino - ZERO.

We had out just over 110 people - both Native and non-Native people. Every single person listened quietly to the whole presentation with several moments of applause. No one spoke until it came to the Q&A time. It was a perfect demonstration by all of what Free Speech is all about.

About 8 different media outlets were present from both Native and non-Native media.

I then did a PowerPoint Presentation which lasted about 1.5 hours. The following is a brief outline: [Link to full presentation]
