WHY HAS CANADA, NOT RATIFIED, THE OAS TREATY ON HUMAN RIGHTS?.

THE ORGANIZATION OF AMERICAN STATES AND THE COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS, ARE POWERLESS, TO ENFORCE HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSE, AGAINST CANANDA, UNLESS, IT ALSO RATIFIY ITS TREATIES WITH THE OAS.  AND ALL OF THEM,  NOT JUST SOME.
 
CANADA SHOULD RATIFY WITH THE OAS, ITS TREATY, ON THE AMERICAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS.
 
THE AMERICAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS TREATY.  PREAMBLE:
 
1. Reaffirming their intention to consolidate in this hemisphere, within the framework of democratic institutions, a system of personal liberty and social justice based on respect for the essential rights of man;
2. Recognizing that the essential rights of man are not derived from one's being a national of a certain state, but are based upon attributes of the human personality, and that they therefore justify international protection in the form of a convention reinforcing or complementing the protection provided by the domestic law of the American states;
3. Considering that these principles have been set forth in the Charter of the Organization of American States, in the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of  Man, and in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and that they have been reaffirmed and refined in other international instruments, worldwide as well as regional in scope.
4. Reiterating that, in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the ideal of free men enjoying freedon from fear and want can be achieved only if conditions are created whereby everyone may enjoy his economic, social and cultural rights, as well as his civil and political rights; and
5. Considering that the Third Special Inter-American Conference (Buenos Aires, 1967) approved the incorporation into the Charter of the Organization itself of broader standards with respect to economic, social and educational rights and resolved that an inter-American convention on human rights should determine the structure, competence and procedure of the organs responsible for these matters.  Have agreed upon the following:
 
(The Treaty, then goes on to present the 82 Articles, pertaining, to the Treaty of the American Convention on human Rights.). For the purpose of this article, the ones which concerns me, are the following articles:
Article 1. Obligation to Respect Rights
1.    The States Parties to this Convention undertake to respect the rights and freedoms recognized herein and to ensure to all persons subject to their jurisdiction the free and full exercise of those rights and freedoms, without any discrimination for reasons of race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, economic status, birth, or any other social condition.
Article 2. Domestic Legal Effects
Where the exercise of any of the rights or freedoms referred to in Article 1 is not already ensured by legislative or other provisions, the States Parties undertake to adopt, in accordance with their constitutional processes and the provisions of this Convention, such legislative or other measures as may be necessary to give effect to those rights or freedoms.
 
                                CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS
Article 3. Right to Juridical Personality
Every person has the right to recognition as a person before the law.
 

Article 4. Right to Life

1.    Every person has the right to have his life respected. This right shall be protected by law and, in general, from the moment of conception. No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his life.  (Article 4, also consist of 5 other sections, which are not mentioned here).
Article 5. Right to Humane Treatment
1.    Every person has the right to have his physical, mental, and moral integrity respected.
2.    No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman, or degrading punishment or treatment. All persons deprived of their liberty shall be treated with respect for the inherent dignity of the human person. (Article 5, also consist of 4 other sections, which are not mentioned here). The main focus for the purpose of this article, are sections 1 and 2.
 
Article 7. Right to Personal Liberty
1.    Every person has the right to personal liberty and security.
 
2.    No one shall be deprived of his physical liberty except for the reasons and under the conditions established beforehand by the constitution of the State Party concerned or by a law established pursuant thereto. (Article 7, also consist of 7 sections, which are omitted here, for convenience).
Other articles of interest here, are also the following ones: Article 8, the Right to a Fair Trial. Article 10, the Right to Compensation. And also the following two articles, Article 28 and 29, which are of particular interest to this writer and the subject of this article.
 
Article 24. Right to Equal Protection
All persons are equal before the law. Consequently, they are entitled, without discrimination, to equal protection of the law.
 
Article 25. Right to Judicial Protection
1.    Everyone has the right to simple and prompt recourse, or any other effective recourse, to a competent court or tribunal for protection against acts that violate his fundamental rights recognized by the constitution or laws of the state concerned or by this Convention, even though such violation may have been committed by persons acting in the course of their official duties.
2.    The States Parties undertake:
a.    to ensure that any person claiming such remedy shall have his rights determined by the competent authority provided for by the legal system of the state;
b.    to develop the possibilities of judicial remedy; and
c.    to ensure that the competent authorities shall enforce such remedies when granted.
For the purpose of this article, can anyone also consider, why Canada as a country, which is a part of the Organization of the American States, would also not adopt those measures?. Why has Canada consistently, refused, to ratify this particular treaty with the OAS?.
The following are the only treaties that Canada, as a state, as ratified with the OAS; Convention of the Nationality of Women; Inter-American Convention on the Granting of Political rights to Women; and Inter-American Convention on the Granting of Civil Rights to Women. According to the government of Canada website, Canadian Heritage.  Missing from those treaties, is the most important one. The American convention on Human Rights.

Back in May of 2003, there was a Standing Committee on Human Rights, chaired by Shirley Maheu, before the Canadian Parliament, which also tried to get Canada to adhere to the OAS treaty, on the American Convention on Human Rights. That was also not successful. And it has never been implemented, or ratified since. Which also left the subject of human rights abuse and, the violation of this particular treaty, with the OAS and also by Canada, an open subject for discussion AND also implementation.

My own conversations, with the American Court of Human Rights, which according to its court staff, also appear to be powerless, in making this country own up to its actions, in regards to its disregard for human rights, very difficult to prosecute, or deal with. The inter-American Court of Human Rights will also hear the cases that are brought before it, from the IACHR. And Canada is usually, not one of those states, within the Organization of American States, which can be penalized for its actions. This also left victims of human rights abuse, by Canada, such as myself, as a Blogger, and who is also currently facing persecution, by the Canadian police, also vulnerable, to more attacks coming from the state.

Still, this is also not a dead end. The IACHR, as part of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and also the OAS, does have some broad powers, to enact specific measures against Canada and other states, under the OAS, which are brought before the IACHR, by petitioners, in order to protect their human rights.
Petitioners, can also request the following actions to be taken against Canada, by the IACHR;
Precautionary Measures and also urgent requests. Urgent requests, requiring the immediate intervention, of the IACHR, in order to protect the life and security of individuals, are also dealt with according to its own procedures, expeditiously.  That means that most of the formalities, will also be put aside temporarily, and the state may be contacted, directly, whether through a telephone call, email, regular mail, or by fax, in regards to the request of the petitioner, as far as the IACHR is concerned. By contrast, the regular request to the IACHR to take precautionary measures, that are not considered urgent, will be also dealt with in is usual manner. Since July of 2015, persons can now file a petition online, and can also view later on the progress of their petitions, with the IACHR. 

My own petition against Canada, with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, (IACHR), was also back in 2010. I now have a new petition, that I will also be filing with the IACHR and also requesting that urgent actions be taken on my behalf, to stop the ongoing abuse of my human rights, by the Canadian authorities. Including the courts and the police.

The following information are to the IACHR's website and also the direct links, to making a petition online, if you are facing human rights abuse, by the Canadian government, in any form.
www.oas.org/en/iachr/mandate/petitions.asp
 
 
It is also a good idea to familiarized yourself with the OAS treaty, the American Convention on Human Rights. The link to this webpage is: www.cidh.oas.org/basicos/english/basic3.american%20convention.htm


Listen to the Valerie Guillaume Show, on Podbean.com, http://valerieguillaume.podbean.com
as I continue to report on human rights abuse in Canada, on a weekly basis. I will also be reporting on my progress with the IACHR, in regards to my request, for precautionary measures against Canada. Which is also in the form of an urgent request, as my situation also require immediate intervention, to protect my human rights.

RACISM AND CORRUPTION, AT TORONTO CITY HALL.

RACISM AND CORRUPTION, AT TORONTO CITY HALL.: DOES THESE THREE CORRUPT AND MISGUIDED, TORONTO CITY OFFICIALS, THINK THAT THEY ARE RUNNING THE SHOW, AT CITY HALL?



Toronto City Manager, Peter Wallace, and these two Municipal Licensing Standards officials, Tracy Cook and Mark Sraga, tries to show how much they are in control, but what they are really about is corruption. Tracy Cook, a former Toronto cop and now a city bureaucrat, has taken her personal corruption, while being a police officer, to the corridors of Toronto City Hall.  If the public was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt, and was also willing to give her the opportunity, to prove herself in her new position, then she has failed the public miserably. She is still a corrupt cop at heart and that still shows in her current role, in carrying out the enforcement of the Municipal Code, in regards to her current job. She and other MLS officers beneath her, such as mark Straga, can dole out favors to underserving customers, while at the same time, going after other members of the public, in adherence to the Municipal Code's violations. As for the Toronto City Manager, Peter Wallace, he is also more than willing to turn a blind eye and let those below him who operate those city divisions, runs amok, and to do nothing about it, as part of his job as the city manager. Many of the views and actions of those who runs city hall, are racist and either excludes, or targets select members of this city, for differential treatment. it is not all the same for everyone, when it comes to the services that they are suppose to provide. It is as if treating people differently, is also common place with them. And they also expect the public to accept their corrupt ways, and to keep them operating in their current positions. Corruption is how the City of Toronto operates, so they are sort of right, in not to be concerned too much, about any accountability on their part.

PREMIER KATHLEEN WYNNE, SHOULD NOW INVESTIGATE, THE ACTIONS OF THE CITY MANAGER AND THE MAYOR OF TORONTO

TORONTO'S PUBLIC POLICY, AROUND ANTI-RACISM AND OTHER ISSUES, HAS BEEN IGNORED, BY THE CURRENT CITY MANAGER, PETER WALLACE AND ALSO THE MAYOR, JOHN TORY. CERTAIN GROUPS ARE MARGINALIZED AND ALSO TARGETED, INCLUDING, ALSO, BEING DISRESPECTED, BY BOTH THE CITY MANAGER AND ALSO THE MAYOR. 


SHOULD PETER WALLACE, THE CITY MANAGER, BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE, TO IGNORE THE INVESTIGATION, OF TRACY COOK, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF MUNICIPAL LICENSING STANDARDS AND ALSO MARK SRAGA, THE DIRECTOR OF INVESTIGATIONS AND JOE MANGALHAES, ACTING DIRECTOR, OF INVESTIGATIONS?

WHAT WILL THE PREMIERE'S RESPONSE BE TO THE CITY MANAGER'S SO CALLED INVESTIGATION, OF THEIR ACTIONS? WILL SHE SIDE WITH IT, OR REQUEST A NEW INVESTIGATION, INTO THEIR ACTIONS? THAT IS WHAT SHE WILL BE REQUESTED TO DO, ALONG WITH LOOKING INTO THE PUBLIC DISPLAY OF RACISM, BY THE CITY MANAGER AND THE MAYOR, TOWARDS SOME MEMBERS OF SOCIETY.  AGAIN, WILL SHE AGREE WITH THOSE ACTIONS, OR DENOUNCE IT? WE WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE THE RESULTS, OF HER INVESTIGATION, INTO THEIR ACTIONS.
Kathleen Wynne, Premier of Ontario and Leader of the Liberal Party

Peter Wallace, City Manager.
John Tory, Mayor of Toronto 

                                                     
 Kathleen Wynne, the Premier of Ontario and the leader of the Liberal Party, should now look into the actions of Peter Wallace, the City Manager and also that of John Tory, Toronto's Mayor. I will also be requesting, that, she also investigate the cover-up, from Peter Wallace's office, around the issues of the Municipal Licensing Standards executives, such as Tracy Cook, Mark Sraga and Joe Mangalhaes.

Peter Wallace and Kathleen Wynne, are not on the best of terms at this time. And most importantly, I don't think that they will ever be. Or to see eye to eye, on some issues, either. It was Peter Wallace, a former Cabinet Secretary, and also a bureaucrat, at Queen Park, Ontario's Legislature, whose primary testimony against Wynn's former boss, Dalton McGuinty, the former Premier of Ontario, and whose position, Kathleen Wynne, also took over in 2013, that got the new Premiere on the defensive.  Peter Wallace not only told the police about McGuinty's former Chief of Staff, David Livingston's comments, about deleting the computer hardware, which also had the incriminating data on it, concerning, the cancellation of two gas plants, which has ended up costing the tax payors, over 1.1 billion dollars, but Peter Wallace also rattled off to the Privacy Commissioner about it. So on the day that Kathleen Wynne was sworn in as the new Premier of Ontario, taking over the position from Dalton McGuinty, Peter Wallace also "voluntarily" left his post as a bureaucrat, at Queen Park.  It seem that Peter Wallace's statements were also crucial to the investigation, concerning the cancelled gas plants, and he has made no friend of the incoming new Premiere Kathleen Wynne. 

Peter Wallace was also highly praised, by the new Mayor of Toronto John Tory, for his new role as the City Manager of Toronto. That is also the highest administrative position, at the local level of government. And one in which Peter Wallace, has now shown that he is also incapable of maintaining because of his own personal corruption. Simply put, Peter Wallace has not lived up to the expectations, of the people of Toronto. He has shown himself to be a racist, and also a corrupt government employee, or civil servant. And I don't know how this flaw in his character, also escaped those in the local government, unless they are also just like him. Those like John Tory, the Mayor of Toronto.

I will be expecting the Premier Kathleen Wynne, to carry out an investigation, into the City Manager's actions, in regards to those Municipal Licensing Standards executives, Tracy Cook, Mark Sraga and Joe Mangalhaes. And whether the City Manager did in fact cover up for them, so that they could also keep their positions, after allegations of wrong doings. No, after evidence that they have committed crimes, such as breach of public trust and other crimes, concerning their relationship with private landlords. And also whether or not, they had carried out their public duty, to investigate complaints coming in to the Property Standards Division, from the public.

PART 11: March 15, 2016 I WAS ACCOSTED, FOR DEMONSTRATING, ON A PUBLIC S...




A CONFLICT OF INTERESTED, BETWEEN T.O CITY OFFICIALS AND TWO PRIVATE PROPERTY OWNERS, HAS ALSO PROMPTED THEIR LATEST ACTIONS, TO NOT CARRY OUT AN INVESTIGATION, AGAINST THEM. 
VIEW THIS VIDEO, REGARDING MY DEMONSTRATION, ON MARCH 16, 2016, AGAINST T.O. CITY OFFICIALS, IN THE MUNICIPAL LICENSING STANDARDS DIVISION, AND BY THESE PERSONS, MARK SRAGA, TRACY COOK AND JOE MANHALESE, WHO HAS AUTHORIZED, THAT ALL OF MY COMPLAINTS, REGARDING MY ELECTRICITY, BEING CUT OFF BY MY LANDLORDS, BE CANCELLED. I have learned this information from 311 on March 14, 2016 and also promptly demonstrated against their corruption.
THE CONSPIRACY, REGARDING CANADIAN GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO ABUSE MY RIGHTS, HAS CONTINUES.

PART 1: Date: March 15, 2016. I WAS ACCOSTED, FOR DEMONSTRATING, ON A P...


THE MUNICIPAL LICENSING STANDARDS OFFICIALLY DECIDED NOT TO INVESTIGATE MY COMPLAINTS, REGARDING A LACK OF ELECTRICY, AGAINST TWO TORONTO LANDLORDS, THEY ALSO ARE IN LEAGUE WITH, IN REGARDS TO A CONFLICT OF INTEREST, REGARDING THEIR ACTIONS.
 
Watch this video, which is reminiscent of the G20 protests, and human rights violations. I was protesting after MLS has officially decided, to not investigate my complaint, about my electricity being shut off, by my landlords. I also learned that on March 14, 2016, after 311 sent my complaint to the Municipal Licensing Standards, Division, that those city officials in charge, Tracy Cook, Mark Sraga and Joe Manghalese, also cancelled the complaint, one hour after it was sent to them by 311, for an investigation. On March 15, 2016, I decided to protest against them still occupying their positions and also acting corrupt. See what happened down at the Toronto City Hall, in regards to them

THE CANADIAN POLICE, HAS ORCHESTRATED, YET ANOTHER ATTACK AGAINST ME, IN...



A PLOT OF THE CANADIAN POLICE AND CORRUPT CITY OFFICIALS, TO CONTINUE TO HARASS ME AND TO ATTEMPT TO FRAME ME UP AND ALSO SILENCE ME.


ACTUALLY, WHAT THE POLICE AND THE OTHERS WHO ARE INVOLVED, ARE TRYING TO DO, IS TO SET ME UP TO BE KILLED. EITHER BY THEIR OWN HANDS, OR SOMEONE ELSE. THE POLICE IS TRYING TO CREATE AN ATMOSPHERE, WHERE THEY CAN NOW COME IN AND SHOOT ME. THIS IS WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT. TO SILENCE ME.
CANADA'S RACIST INTERNATIONAL AND DOMESTIC POLICY.
CANADIAN SOLDIERS, IN SOMALIA. HARDLY ANY DIFFERENT FROM
THE POLICE RACISM AND BRUTALITY AGAINST BLACKS, IN CANADA.





The latest attack against me, by the Canadian police and other government officials, has been orchestrated against me, I believe, because of my latest broadcast on my internet radio show, The Valerie Guillaume Show, where on March 12, I have exposed more of their corruption and some of the things that I had reported, such as how a former RCMP officer, by the name of Nina Iwanowich, who is now a complaints officer, with the Law Society of Upper Canada, wanted to me to assist her with a so called case that she is now investigating against a Toronto lawyer, Richard Adeye, which I also declined to do, since the Law Society did not investigate any of my complaints. The secretiveness, surrounding her alleged investigation, where she would not even disclosed at which court, the alleged victim had also laid the charge against him for sexual assault, that Nina Iwanowich also claim was withdrawn from the court, on February 26, 2016.

I also reported on the corruption of Ana Bailao, a Toronto city councilor, who is also in league with several Municipal Licensing Standards officers, to continue to allow certain private landlords, (such as the ones that are discussed in this video), to openly break the law, involving their illegal rental property, located at 256 Saint Clarens Avenue, in Toronto.

Those persons are acting as agent provocateurs, for the police and other government officials, to disrupt my electricity on a daily basis and for those same city officials to not even investigate. They have also carried out other kinds of attacks against me, causing me to be concerned for my safety, and which the Canadian court, has also dismissed those charges against them.
