On January 1st 1993, I gave birth to Canada’s first New Years triplets, who
were conceived by invitro fertilization using donor sperm.
On December 20, 1995 my then husband hired a lawyer to go
to court in the absence of the entire family to obtain custody of my children. I was not aware of this procedure, and nor
is it recorded. After five years, six lawyers and hundreds of thousands of dollars, I still could not get my children legally
or rightly returned to my care.
As a result, and as a loving and caring mother, having noted a remarkable deterioration
of my children, I absconded with them only to be located and arrested in Mexico three months later. I was returned to Canada
where I was charged, tried and acquitted by a jury. However, the crown appealed and I now face a re-trial on parental abduction.
Please
find enclosed a copy of my book, “America’s Most Wanted Mother” detailing these accounts. After legal scrutiny,
the book was found to be a treatise account - an accurate factual rendering of events. Shortly following its publication,
I met and married a man, Lawrence Ross Finck. He too absconded with his child following the death of her mother and after
four lawyers worked in concert by illegally conducting court proceedings which lead him to lose custody of his daughter. The
lawyers were subsequently charged with obstruction of justice, however, the charges were later withdrawn by the Attorney General
of Ontario. My husband spent two years in prison as a result of what the lawyers orchestrated and his daughter remains in
a significantly abusive environment on a native reserve.
Since our union we have attempted and continue to attempt
to expose the criminal abuse of children by state authorities and lawyers in a multi-billion dollar family law industry. While
living in Ontario, and following the stated knowledge of my pregnancy, my ex-husband obtained another ex parte court order
unilaterally cutting all communications to my triplet children two days after they made an independent move to my home, as
they simply wished a shared relationship with both parents.
Although my children, who were almost 11 years old were
interviewed by child welfare authorities, who determined that they were more than capable of ascertaining their own wishes,
the judge (Grand Campbell) made the opinion that no child of mine could endure such “forceful personalities and like-minded
individuals” -referring to my husband and me. Fearing state authorities would not relent, my husband and I left Ontario
in November 2003 and moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia to born our child. We resided with my mother-in-law.
On December
23, 2003, I gave birth to a healthy girl, however, unbeknownst to us, child welfare authorities in Ontario fabricated a Canada
Wide Apprehension Alert prior to the birth of our daughter, which was sent to Halifax only (authorities followed us to Nova
Scotia), while my baby was still in the womb. Child welfare authorities did not attend at the hospital when my baby was born,
as they were on Christmas holiday. In early January 2004, they contacted my family physician who stated that my baby was healthy
and in good and loving parental care.
On January 13, 2004, the Children’s Aid Society of Halifax, filed a notice
of supplication for a supervision order and an order prohibiting us from leaving the province. On January 15, 2004 Debra Smith
of the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia issued an apprehension order to seize our infant. There was no notice, no grounds, no
evidence of abuse, neglect or abandonment. I left the jurisdiction with my baby prior to the hearing, fearing and correctly
suspecting the worst. While I remained in hiding, my husband continued in legal proceedings, self-represented, anticipating
a resolution of matters, however, his efforts were futile, even at the Court of Appeal.
On May 19, 2004, after authorities
learned of my return to the jurisdiction, a SWAT team attempted to break into my mother in-law’s home in the middle
of the night with a battering ram and machine gun in attempt to seize my nursing infant. My mother in-law fired her shot gun
from within her home, sending police away. State authorities declared a stand-off. Following the denial of medical attention,
of all family members and finally of her priest my mother-in law died. My baby was then forcefully taken from my arms and
I was attacked with a taser gun, twice, which left scaring and neurological symptoms.
My husband and I were arrested,
charged, tried and convicted, and now face years of imprisonment for “willfully and unlawfully” detaining our
nursing infant with the intent to deprive the government of “lawful custody”. We have not seen our baby in a year
(since the ’stand-off’) and the state has now moved for permanent custody alleging that my husband and I are mentally
incapable of raising our child. It should be noted that we are with above average intelligence and never has our fitness as
parents been questioned by anyone. All family members who came forward to have our baby placed in their care have been turned
away.
Please find enclosed a copy of our Notice of Leave to Appeal in the Supreme court of Canada as regards a writ
of Habeas corpus respecting our infant child , as well as a copy of the documents that procured the initial apprehension order
of January 15, 2004. Smith J., who made the order, was promoted to Chief Associate Justice of the Supreme court of Nova Scotia
while Justice Minister, Michael Baker and Nova Scotia Premier, John Hamm refuse to conduct a public inquiry into this case
notwithstanding hundreds of requests and demands to do so.
Although my husband and I have been targeted and continue
to pay a dear price for our attempts to expose the criminal abuse of Canadian children, millions of other children and family
members have fallen prey to permanent familial displacement and life long afflictions. Statistics show increased infertility,
decreased birth rates, but increased undisclosed and unloosening adoption sales of infants and children seized by child welfare
authorities. The courts have continually denied my husband’s and my applications and submissions regarding the constitutionality
of state actions - violations of liberty, physical and psychological integrity, infringements of speech, expression and opinion.
Increasingly damaging our state joint ventures (Justice, Community, Services, Health) procuring psychological/psychiatric
assessments of parents whose children are subject to becoming wards of the state, most often determining that parents fail
the mental capacities to raise their children. The result has been devastating for parents, grandparents, and children.
My
husband and I are the first Canadian parents to be convicted of acting to protect our offspring, which profoundly leaves an
“open season” effect on all Canadian children. It is not only the indigenous that face significant peril. Corruption
in the judicial system is rampant with complete immunity for lawyers appointed to the judicial bench. The public is completely
blindsided by a government doctored and directed media. Tyranny and oppression are growing rapidly and the ultimate destruction
of the group unit of society - the Family is dangerously close at hand.
Stealing (systematically kidnapping) children
without due process must stop. The children of Canada and the future of our society will only survive if world condemnation
falls upon the perpetrators. I beg you, as a mother, as an educator, as a human activist and as a researcher in social engineering,
please help us.
I have launched a “starving for the children” campaign
on MAY 21st, 2005, marking the first year anniversary of the negligent death of my mother-in-law and the systematic
kidnapping of my infant child in desperate hope that the Canadian government will properly take carriage of these matters.
I
do not anticipate my survival, however, I see no alternative. These crimes against humanity and this torture must stop, for
the sake of the children.
