Will Federal Investigation expose Human Rights Violations in Alberta

December 10th 2009 U.N human Rights protests across Canada were hampered by cold weather,as many permanently injured workers are affected by cold/ damp weather and were unable to make it out, but that did not stop those that were able to get to their MLA/MPP's offices or to the Provincial or Federal Human Rights Offices. In Edmonton Alberta, one person had approached the Provincial Human Rights office, was not carrying any signs or making any comments what so ever, he went up into the office looking for other friends that he was to meet there. When he approached the main door he was confronted by a security guard, who then escorted the man off the property before the protest even started.

Canada Place the building downtown Edmonton which houses the Federal Human Rights Commission, was a similar story with a twist. Two disabled men had been carrying signs regarding Human Rights violations, when they approached the face of the Canada Place, a lady came running out, no coat or anything to protect her from the -20c weather, asked for a brochure that the men were handing out, as they watched her run back into the building they noticed a group of people taking pictures of them from inside, so in true protest fashion they in turn took their own pictures of those watching them.These two men never went into Canada Place but yet they were told to leave, as they were on private property, 1 it is a federal building, 2 the sidewalk is public property. The two men were threatened by Canada Place Security Commissionaires that if they do not remove themselves from the property the Edmonton Police Service were on hand to escort these men away or possibly arrested. Some passers bye had over heard this and came to assistance the disabled gentlemen, those people were telling the Commissionaires that it was indeed public property and they had no right to remove those men for a peaceful protest. It has now come to our attention that those commissionaires were informed by the Private managing company what to say and how to execute the procedure of removing these men from outside the building, there is probably more to this story on that part that hopefully will come out of the Federal Investigation that has been started due to this situation.

The questions I have is why both Human Rights Commissions had stopped the protesters when it is not illegal? Who handed out the original orders? Were the Human Rights Offices working together on this? With all the Human Rights Violations that are presently being practiced across Canada and especially in Alberta, one would think let them rattle on and go nowhere, but with them attempting to stop the protesters they in all reality have brought out even more attention. I certainly look forward to the Federal Investigation into these situations, pertaining to the actions of the managing company and the Commissionaires. Hopefully this Investigation will be expanded into the Human Rights Violations that occur here,let true honest Justice be served, as we all know there is no true Justice in this Province when it comes to Government Crimes.

This was undoubtedly an over reaction by 'new' security in government buildings, when an armed Clayton took hostages during a standoff at the Workers' Compensation Board building in downtown Edmonton.

WCB Incidents In Calgary

December 1993: A disabled Calgary construction worker fires a shotgun twice and holds hostages for 4½ hours in the WCB office before he is subdued.

September 1992: Protester armed with sledgehammer smashes WCB Calgary windows.

November 1991: Disabled Calgary glass worker breaks WCB office windows with baseball bat.

May 1991: Brain-injured steel worker commits suicide with a gun in the WCB Calgary parking lot. The death triggers two inquiries, a government apology and an overhaul of the WCB administration.

Nothing much has changed I see. Keep us updated.

Appears there will be no investigation by the Federal Government, they sold Canada Place in November 2007, yet they have a 25 year lease on it. So it is private property, but next question is why hasn't the public been made aware of the sale?
