Return of The Public Eye!

Truth To Power

Good Day readers:

During our daily review of websites and blogs we found the following item posted by The Public Eye an anonymous Canadian lawyer.

Since the original affidavit was filed with the Court in May of 2006 there have been a few changes:

(1) In November 2006 Vanessa Everton wrote President David Chartrand what amounted to a hear no evil, see no evil, say no evil and was removed as a Co-Defendant. The law prohibits us from printing her letter verbatim on the internet

(2) Darrel Deslauriers, Rosemarie McPherson, Bonnie McIntyre and Richard Delaronde have signed Notices of Discontinuance removing themselves as Plaintiffs.

Note: Winnipeg Regional Vice-President Ron Chartrand was the only Manitoba Metis Federation provincial Board of Director who did not agree to be a Plaintiff from the start.

Sincerely,

Clare L. Pieuk

Defendants

AFFIDAVIT OF CLARE L. PIEUK

Sworn the 30th day of April, 2006

I, CLARE L. PIEUK, of the City of Winnipeg, in the Province of Manitoba, MAKE OATH AND SAY THAT:

1. I am one of the Defendants herein, and as such have personal knowledge of the matters hereinafter deposed to by me, except where same is indicated to be based upon information and belief, in which case I verily believe same to be true.

2. In or around June 2005, I attended with Kurt Penner, who was then and to my knowledge is presently the Special Assistant to the Minister of Aboriginal & Northern Affairs of the Province of Manitoba, and provided him with copies of certain internal documents from the Manitoba Metis Federation and affiliated corporation ("the MMF") which were originally provided me by persons who wish to remain anonymous ("the documents"). Immediately after I provided the documents to Mr. Penner, I was informed by Mr. Penner and do verily believe that he would be preparing what he described as a "briefing document" for reference by Mr. Oscar Lathlin, who was then and to my knowledge is presently the Minister of Aboriginal & Northern Affairs.

3. In or around June 2005, I attended with Corporal Tracy McGonigal with the Commercial Crimes Unit of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police ("the RCMP") and showed her copies of the documents. I was informed by Corporal McGonigal and do verily believe that it was her intention to open a file on behalf of the RCMP in relation to a potential investigation of the MMF.

[. . . .]

5. On or around April 15, 2006, I telephoned Ms. Terri Klassen, who informed me that she was an Investigation and Control Officer with Human Resources and Skills Development Canada ("The Department"), which I verily believe to be true, and in my telephone conversation with her, I provided to her the name and telephone number of a certain person wishing to remain anonymous who is in possession of copies of the documents ("this person"). I was informed by Ms. Klassen, and do verily believe, that it was her intention to obtain the documents from this person, to review the documents, and to determine the feasibility of conducting an investigation of the MMF based on her review.

6. On or around April 18, 2006, I attended with Ms. Klassen and was informed by her, and do verily believe same to be true, that she and others within the Department have over an unspecified period of time harboured suspicions as to the veracity of certain information provided by the MMF to the Department, and further indicated that to date the Department has been unable to pursue an investigation due to the lack of evidence available.

7. I make this Affidavit bona fide and for no improper purpose or motive.

SWORN before me at the City of Winnipeg, in the Province of Manitoba, this 30th day of April, 2006.
