Should I show up at the News Conference of the NDP at the Crowne Plaza?
Sure was an debating issue.
I received many emails telling me the way Dominic Cardy became the Leader wasn't a fair process.
A few members who have been members of the NDP for years have quit the Party in disgust.
Others who have been donating to the Party will no longer be doing so.
I wasn't going to attend the News Conference but decided to show up.
I will admit that I had an attitude because I'm still upset of the way I was treated by Margot Spragg!!
Once there, I was asked to signed a piece of paper and I also noticed that I did attract some attention.
I refuse to sign any paper. < Attitude >
Another worker gave me the release of papers to the media. So they were treating me like media I guess.
I was told that all media will sign the papers so they can received updates from the Party.
One worker in a fancy suit stepped out of the room and told me not to give Margot Spragg a difficult time.
I replied- Why would I give her a hard time? She's the one who cut me off during my interview with Roger Duguay.
Click below for video -
I was told she was just doing her job!!!
No...no..no.... I am a professional judgment of character and this woman was very very very arrogant!!
It was so bad that I even approached her face to face asking her - Who are you???
She just looked at me with a snobby smirk on her face.
I remember asking a member of the P.C. Party asking - Who the hell is that?
She was still staring at me with that crazy smirk!
But that was then and now is now!!!
I'm sure a few members of the Party weren't too happy of me being at their News Conference.
But what do you do when you have the biggest Blogger and Bullshitter in the room?
Do you tell him off and order him to leave? Of course not because there's nothing worst than a pissed off Blogger!!!
I guess they came to their sense and would just watch to see how I would act?
If I crossed the line? They would go to step two!!
I met Susan-Levi Peters and found her a nice person.
While chatting with her and her husband? Dominic made his appearance to the News Conference.
I decided to take my place out front with other media.
Click below for his speech!!!
He mentioned his campaign Manager David Brown? Then the flashbacks immediately to my head!!!
I said to myself- No No No!!!! Not him!!! Not David Brown!!!
I taught I had the wrong guy but after looking around the room? Sure enough it was the same David Brown!!
Many readers would not know this guy so we must go back in time to the year 2006!
This is David Brown!!

It was the time when I was banned from the Legislature. Labour Leader Tom Mann wrote a letter to the Editor supporting the ban!
I never met Tom Mann before and was very determine to meet the guy but this David Brown made certain that I would not meet the Labour Leader!!!
Here's one story -

Ever since, I have ban for life from the Legislature?
I have been a very busy ADHD political activist.
I have been so occupied that I haven’t blogged much about the people who made this very undemocratic decision.
I just had to confront Tom Mann because I have been told that his letter to the editor was in most Irving’s newspapers around this Province.
What does he know that I don’t?
I heard from some people that a few Union Employees took stress leave because of me.
What happened there?
Did these Government Unionizes workers ran inside the Union Hall crying that I stressed them? I didn't know the employees at the Legislature belongs to a Union.
Sigh...
Many questions and still no clear-cut answers.
I was suppose to meet with Kelly Lamrock at a undisclosed location but he never showed up.
So at noon, I met my partner in crime and her job is to be in the background and take pictures for my blog.
<img src="http://static.flickr.com/72/178049401_3477efd4ff.jpg"
She does really good work.
Once inside the building, I met this very nice and polite secretary.
She told me that Tom Mann wasn’t around and if I wanted to set up a meeting?
I didn’t feel comfortable in asking for a meeting so I asked if there was someone I could talk to because the Union went out of their way to condemn me in a letter to the editor.
Do they wished that the poor be exterminated from the Legislature?
I know these are very harsh words but I need to chat with someone.
A woman came down and I chatted with me.
<img src="http://static.flickr.com/59/178052294_8ce81dd206.jpg"
I told them that a former good friend of mine name Dorothy Dawson told me that Tom Mann was a nice guy.
I heard this from others also but I’m just following the paper trial and it leads me right in this building.
The nice women were a little concern of my partner taking pictures but they never said a word.
I didn’t know if these girls were afraid of me because if people ran inside the building crying that they were stressed out because of Charles LeBlanc!!!
Well. I can understand their side because they were face to face with a stranger and I can understand their point of view.
So I decided to show the girls that I had a sense of ha ha...
I told them that I had a blog and they should locate it on the internet.
I wanted to show them the short video of kung fu fighting.
I still think it’s funny.
After a couple of minutes, I decided to leave but before we left?
I asked for a drink of cold water.
<img src="http://static.flickr.com/68/178052302_905e86396e_m.jpg"
Then suddenly, I heard someone running down the stairway.
I told the girl - Ok..Get ready!!!! This should be very interesting. The woman must have told someone that there's was a nut downstairs?
Sure enough a guy quickly ran in the office and he introduce himself as David Brown and he said that he was a lawyer.
At that moment, It didn’t hit me but I chatted with David in the pass while in Saint John.
He once ran for the NDP!!! Is the NDP behind this???
He quickly told the girl not to take pictures.
He asked her who she was?
I told David that it was nice to see a lawyer running down the stairs.
The girl is with me so don’t worry about it.
I told the Union Lawyer that I was following the paper trail and I wanted to know where Tom Mann got his stories?
The lawyer never said much and I even said- Why do I get involved in these issues anyway????
I wanted to show that I wasn’t upset or out of control.
I just wanted some answers from the Union Leader.
The lawyer never said much but he did show me the door.
I told him - Listen you might tell everyone after I leave that I’m just an idiot and should be ignore.
What do you want me to write once I get out of here?
He didn’t seem to care what I wrote so I guess this is the beginning of a confrontation with me and the Union.
A Union leader who speaks out against the poor must resign.
I left my email address so Tom Mann can email me so lets see what’s going to happen?
Stay tune!!!!
Just for the record? I’m using these pictures because they went out of their way to write a letter to all the Irving’s newspapers about me. So therefore I’m returning the favour.
================================================================================================================================================================================================
Months later I finally came face to face with Tom Mann!!!!
Here's the story -
>Last Friday, I walked into the old Beaverbrook Hotel.
I stopped at the door and asked what was going on?
I was told it was a Union Meeting.
I noticed this guy so I quickly went to chat with the Union individual.
I wasn’t certain but I noticed someone sitting with his back turn on me.
I quickly believe that it was Tom Mann?
I decided to leave the area because this sure wouldn’t be the place to face the Union Leader.
I left the hotel and someone gave me a bag of clothes so I went back at the Beaverbrook and asked the Clerk if they could take care of my bag for a few minutes while I go at the New Brunswick Legislature to cover the protest for Day Care.
I was surprised to see all the Union members in the hallway of the Hotel with posters. They were encouraging each other for the Protest.
They were all members of C.U.P.E.!
While walking out, I noticed a guy holding the door for the members while they walked by.
I said to myself - MY GOD??? THAT’S TOM MANN!!!!

Blog
I have been blogging Tom Mann ever since he wrote that letter to the Irving paper congratulating Tanker Malley for banning me from the Leg.
I stood in front of 250 people in Moncton and condemned the Union Leader for supporting the banning of the poor from the Legislature.
I always said that if I ever come face to face with the Tom Mann?
I will confront the guy wherever that place will be?
Unfortunately for this blogger it was right in front of a lot of Union members.
Once he turned his back.
I went for my camera and shouted - THERE’S THE GUY WHO DON’T WANT THE POOR AT THE LEGISLATURE!!!!
I’m certain that Tom Mann didn’t know who was the guy behind the camera but he must have seen the word- BLOGGER on my hat.
Ok . . . It was SHOWTIME!!!!!!
He walked by me without saying a word! There were all kinds of people around and I knew that if I confront the Union Leader on the Ground of the Legislature?
I would be a big trouble.
We were on the streets in the Capital and I had to move fast.
I quickly followed the Union leader and shouted- WHAT’S WRONG TOM? YOU DON’T TALK TO THE POOR???
A guy walked by and said a smart remark.
It was the Union Lawyer David Brown. He was very ignorant.
The Unions can do better without guys like David Brown.
Last June, I asked for a meeting with Tom Mann but David Brown refuses. I hope he doesn’t try again for public office because I’ll be right there to denounce this high class dude.
I quickly continue to concentrate on my pray and that was Tom Mann.
I shouted again- YOU DON’T TALK TO THE POOR TOM????
I was surprised that no Union members tried to be a hero?
Well, if the Labour leader wrote a letter to the editor condemning me?
Therefore he’s fair game and that’s the way it is!!!
The Union Leader came to a sudden stop and turned around to chat with me.
He spoke for around two minutes.
I told the guy - You know what Tom? Close to 98% of people when I mention your name? The say you’re a nice guy!
You know what Tom? They’re right! You are a nice guy.
I’m a Professional when it comes in noticing a person character.
We had a nice chat and he told me that he was supportive of the Harassment policy of the Legislature. I told the Union Leader there’s no harassment policy at the People’s House.
The New Brunswick Human Rights Commission made it very clear that the people in charge in that building can mentally or sexual harrash all employees and nothing can be done.
They don’t have jurisdiction at the Legislature.
The only time the Police will get involved if there’s a crime committed.
So, we had a nice chat and if the jerk David Brown would had set up a meeting last June?
Tom Mann would have never been blasted in my blog but what’s done is done!!! We must have chatted for over 15 minutes about different issues. Maybe he'll invite me for coffee one day? I will apologize to Tom because he is a very nice guy!!!
I settle my difference with Brent Taylor who wrote a column in the Irving’s paper calling me a Kook and now there’s only one individual left.
This guy will be a tough nut to crack because it’s an ignorant Québécois who will not admit they were in the wrong.
But I’ll be there! One thing is certain? If the Quebec Security staff has me arrested? Well, those individuals who put that harassment charge against me will have to testify in court.
You see? It’s not hard to do? You sit down and have a chat with me to settle our little problem. It’s a darn shame the bureaucrats at the New Brunswick Police Commission and the Legislator can’t follow the same example????
Stay tuned!!!!
================================================================================================
I might add we became good friends after our little meeting but as Tom Mann once told me - I should have met with you months ago!!!
That was then and now is now!!!
Ok...never mind that!!!!
The new Leader of the NDP Dominic Cardy took questions from the media!
To be honest with you?
I wasn't going to asked any questions but decided to speak and maybe the new Leader would tell me that I'm not media so therefore I don't have to answer your questions!!!
Click below for the News Conference -
So I asked my questions and he answered!!!
The News Conference was over and I had a little chat with a few members of the Party and let it known that it wasn't good for the NDP not to have a Leadership Convention.
A person could be a former murderer? Let he or she run for the Leadership and let the members decide who will be the Leader.
I noticed Dominic Cardy was walking toward us with his girlfriend Margot Spragg.
They were chatting and I'm certain this Blogger was the main point of conversation. He approached me and gave me a polite handshake.
It was the first time I met the guy and told him that I was terrified of red heads!!!...lol
I wrote this on my blog on many occasions....lol
Red heads are stern, direct and with tell you off if they don't like you!!
I guess he's a good politician because he kept his opinion to himself.
lol
This Margot girl stuck around but I couldn't be bothered shaking her hand. Once you turned against this blogger? I don't be back!! < Scottish genes >
I decided to go home!!!
So David Brown will ran Dominic Cardy campaign eh?
Maybe this is the reason there were no Leadership convention???
This David Brown is very bad news!!!!
Well? I said it 5 years ago and I will say it again!!!
I told many people that if this David Brown is ever to run for political Office? I'll be right there to denounce the Jerk!!!
He's running the NDP????
I'll be right there and centre in 3 years from now to denounce the guy!
Can't have the NDP in the Legislature with David Brown in charge!!!
No way!!!!
Come back to this blog in three years from now!!!!
It's going to be dirty!!!!
Stay tuned!!!!
P.S. Are you happy with the way the NDP handle the Leadership issue?
Please let me know!!!!
