Taking the Canadian State, before the International Criminal Court, will be an uphill battle. And having any individuals of that State who has also committed any act, under international law, particularly, those under the Rome Statute, will also prove to be difficult. But it is an action that I am also ready to face, in the pursuit of justice. For the longest while this government has told me time and time again, through its actions, that it does not regard my rights as a human being, and worse, that it can also do whatever it want in the face of international laws, to also deprive me of my right to life and liberty. It has also carried out torture against me, contrary to Article 5, of the Rome Statute, which it has so hypocritically helped to established and yet have also done everything against it, in regards to the people living in that country. From abusing the Aboriginal People's rights, to those of other marginalized groups, it has committed all of those acts, which it has also ratified with the International Criminal Court. And now its also want to get complete immunity from prosecution, for committing those crimes!. The recent action of one of its courts, the Old City Hall Court, in Toronto and also by the Justice of the Peace Lena Crawford, will also prove to be one of the easiest cases to prosecute, under the right circumstances, against that State and also against the individuals being prosecuted on behalf of Canada, before the International Criminal Court. And under the grounds of committing Crimes Against Humanity, against me personally, that is also how the case against them will also proceed, in the I.C.C. And no amount of influence from the Canadian government can also stop this process from taking place. The Rome Statute has provided victims with more than ample
protection, in pursuing their cases, including the protection that are provided under Articles 68(1) and 43(6), both of which I am also entitled to have, in proceeding with my case against Canada and its government officials and police.
Ms. Fatou Bansouda, the head of the Office of the Prosecutor, with the International Criminal Court, will also have no choice, in proceeding with this matter before the court. Whether she wants to or not. I will demand and also expect to have the protection of the I.C.C. And the court cannot go back on its own principles. The case is also stronger against some of the accused, than others. And Justice of the Peace Lena Crawford, also provide one of the strongest and clearest case, to prove before the court, that she has also committed those acts against me, which are also expressively forbidden by the court. And which in this case would also constitute an act in regards to committing the act of Crimes Against Humanity.
