ONTARIO
SUPERIOR COURT OF JUSTICE


IN THE MATTER OF and intended action


BETWEEN


RICHARD WARMAN

Plaintiff
and


CONSTANCE WILKINS-FOURNIER


and
MARK FOURNIER
and
JOHN DOE


Defendants


NOTICE


Pursuant to section 5(1) of the Libel and Slander Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. L.12,


PLEASE BE ADVISED that you have spoken words and/or written words and/or published words that are defamatory and libelous to me appearing on the website "www.freedominion.ca".


The material appears on web pages within the thread entitled:


1) Gentes/CHRC withdraw complaint against Free Dominion


This material first came to my knowledge on 16 August 2007 as being defamatory and libelous. The matters complained of are as follows:


The web-page article entitled, "Gentes/CHRC withdraw complaint against Free Dominion"


www.freedominion.ca/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=85209&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start-270:


1. Accuses me of being the "Censorship Champion".


2. States in reference to me that "...this asshole is so obnoxious that even his fellow fanatics at the "Human "Right" Commission couldn't stand him"


3. Accuses me of being a "professional complainer".


4. Accuses me of being a "devious character".


5. States that I have been "...opposed to the Freedom of Speech offered by the Internet for years".


6. States that "[i]evitably his crusade has lead [sic] to people offering unlawful death threats against him.


7. Accuses me of having threatened David Icke and also of having threatened "anyone who tried to publicly expose [my] activities.


8. Accuses me of having made false allegations of unlawful speech in the past and that the concerns I expressed publicly about the incitement to murder me from US neo-Nazi Bill White should be doubted.


9. Accuses me of being "involved with an urban terrorist group called the "Anti-Racist Action" who he recently sponsored to go and protest in front of another individual's house, thus the Paul Fromm reference."



10. Accuses me of having spoken to and financed the Anti-Racist Action group and that this group was responsible for "...the firebombing of another individual's house, including the posting of instructions to do it" and that this same group attacked the eyes of police horses with sharp sticks.


11. Accuses me of having sponsored bus transportation for a protest by this same Anti-Racist Action group outside the home of Paul Fromm at which a protestor held a sign stating "Die Nazi Scum".


12. Repeats the libel of Paul Fromm in calling me a "censor".


13. Accuses me of having sponsored bus transportation for the group Anti-Racist Action to the protest outside the home of Paul Fromm in retaliation for Paul Fromm acting as agent for respondents in federal human rights cases I have filed.


14. States that I counselled members of the group Anti-Racist Action group to commit an assault against David Icke because I didn't agree with what he was writing.


15. States that I have threatened the safety of other people on many occasions.


16. States that my action in bringing an application before the CRTC in relation to the threats of US neo-Nazi Bill White is reflective of a dictatorship.



17. In relation to the incitement to murder me by US neo-Nazi Bill White states that "...[i]f there is a serious physical threat, would it be because of activities fighting proven "hate speech"? Is there any truth to the allegations that he has taken his own believes to the streets? Allegations have been made about Mr. Warman engaging in some of the same physical activities, such as exposing the home addresses of his opponents, talking to their neighbours, and other such activities that Mr. Warman would be concerned if his opponents did to him. I don't know who is involved in the "Anti-Racism Action" group, but they seem to believe it is possible to fight "hate" with "hate".


18. Accuses me of being controlled by someone else or by some other group - "the proxy by which the B'nai Brith, CJC, CHRC works through."

India-Pakistan
IJT activists thrash three Shia students
About 40 to 50 Islami Jamiat Talaba activists beat three Shia PhD students after Friday prayers in the presence of Punjab University (PU) Vice Chancellor (PU) Prof Mujahid Kamran and security personnel.

The beaten students are also members of the Students Action Committee (SAC) and Insaf Student Federation, which is the students wing of Tehreek-e-Insaf. The PU IJT media secretary said the students who had beaten the SAC members were not the IJT activists.

The SAC students were gathering after Friday prayers to protest in favour of the sacked judges when IJT activists, numbered in between 40 and 50, attacked them. Most of the SAC students, who were between 10 and 15 in number, managed to flee, but IJT activists managed to get hold of three SAC students. The SAC students were beaten to the extent that they were bleeding. They (IJT activists) raised anti-Shia slogans while beating them and the reason they gave for beating them was that they were “creating fuzz”.

Before the beating episode began, both IJT and SAC students had come out of the PU Central Mosque after the Friday prayers. The VC was present there when the scuffle broke out. In addition to the VC, there were between 15 to 20 security guards. The VC immediately left the place where the security guards stood by as mere spectators.

PU Registrar Dr Naeem Ahmed Khan said, “It is a sad incident and PU Estate Officer Muhammad Saleem has been suspended for being unable to keep things under control.”

The three students beaten were identified as Amir Jalal, Haroon Riaz and Sajjad Gul, all PhD students of biological sciences. The other SAC members later said that the event showed how the IJT controlled the university and could beat anyone even in the presence of the VC and security.

Jalal said, “It is the brazenness of the IJT activists, who indulged in hooliganism in the presence of the VC and security guards. SAC will launch a campaign against this vandalism.”

Southeast Asia
E Timor head makes public speech
East Timor's President Jose Ramos-Horta has spoken publicly for the first time since he was shot and seriously injured in a rebel attack last month.

The president was shot outside his home in the capital, Dili, on 11 February. The rebels - a group of former soldiers - also attacked Prime Minister Xanana Gusmao but he escaped uninjured. Mr Ramos-Horta was flown to northern Australia hours after the shooting to undergo emergency surgery. Since then he has been making a slow but steady recovery.

Speaking from hospital in Darwin, Mr Ramos-Horta said he would not make any political comment but thanked all those involved in his recovery. "Today is the first time I am able to speak publicly, although I am refraining from making a political speech," he said. "I wish to use this opportunity to thank all who prayed for me, who looked after me, who cared for me, following the assassination attempt on me."

He paid tribute to the Australian government, which sent more peacekeepers to East Timor in the immediate aftermath of the attack. He also thanked Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, who visited East Timor days in the aftermath of the shootings in a show of support for the troubled nation.

Mr Ramos-Horta is expected to remain in hospital for at least another week, doctors said.
