A free public service offered by Paul Kemp - Central Nova - Nova Scotia There are ten steps, or stages, to the evolution of a practical and efficient form of representative government, and these are: 1. Freedom of the person. Slavery, serfdom, and all forms of human bondage must disappear. 2. Freedom of the mind. Unless a free people are educated -- taught to think intelligently and plan wisely -- freedom usually does more harm than good. 3. The reign of law. Liberty can be enjoyed only when the will and whims of human rulers are replaced by legislative enactments in accordance with accepted fundamental law. 4. Freedom of speech. Representative government is unthinkable without freedom of all forms of expression for human aspirations and opinions. 5. Security of property. No government can long endure if it fails to provide for the right to enjoy personal property in some form. Man craves the right to use, control, bestow, sell, lease, and bequeath his personal property. 6. The right of petition. Representative government assumes the right of citizens to be heard. The privilege of petition is inherent in free citizenship. 7. The right to rule. It is not enough to be heard; the power of petition must progress to the actual management of the government. 8. Universal suffrage. Representative government presupposes an intelligent, efficient, and universal electorate. The character of such a government will ever be determined by the character and caliber of those who compose it. As civilization progresses, suffrage, while remaining universal for both sexes, will be effectively modified, regrouped, and otherwise differentiated. 9. Control of public servants. No civil government will be serviceable and effective unless the citizenry possess and use wise techniques of guiding and controlling officeholders and public servants. 10. Intelligent and trained representation. The survival of democracy is dependent on successful representative government; and that is conditioned upon the practice of electing to public offices only those individuals who are technically trained, intellectually competent, socially loyal, and morally fit. Only by such provisions can government of the people, by the people, and for the people be preserved.

Leaders of this nation need a serious reality check - It is the duty of our public servants and elected representatives to do the greatest good for the greatest number of people over the longest period of time. The Canadian Charter of rights and freedoms was founded upon the belief in the sovereignty of God and the Rule of Law.

Cast your vote in the next election by the measure of what our political managers and public servants are actually doing or are refusing to do. Our actions are always our final decisions.

 Society's prime gift to man is security.  Punishment by burning alive was once a common practice in this world.

Are Tasers a modern scientific form of burning at the stake? A reversal of justice, fairness, kindness, patience, and perhaps even a betrayal of mercy, not to mention the suspension of habeas corpus and for those who are murdered by these weapons, a denial of a fair trial before punishment is administered on our city streets for wrongdoing?

Manslaughter, by definition, is defined as criminal negligence causing bodily harm or death. Are our public servants employed as our law enforcement officers above this common law of doing no harm?

 When rights are old beyond knowledge of origin, they are often called natural rights. But human rights are not really natural; they are entirely social. They are relative and ever changing, being no more than the rules of living -- recognized adjustments of relations governing the ever-changing phenomena of human competition. The question I am placing before the Canadian national family is this:

 What justification could possibly be used by those who condone the use of tasers as a method of compelling obedience to law enforcement officers for the purpose of controlling the individual through fear of immediate and painful punishment in our places of assembly, in our local neighborhoods and even in the private homes of the Canadian people? This lack of brotherhood is both reprehensible and inexcusable!

 Is Canada, like our neighbor to the south, retrogressing into the political tyranny of an advancing and increasingly more militarized police state?

Have we devolved into a country where manslaughter charges apply only to those who work outside of the protective institutions of a government that is increasingly becoming a tyranny to the citizens of Canada. Ordinary citizens go to prison while public servants and government leaders escape all inquiries, investigations and due punishments for wrong-doing and criminal behaviour?

Are our elected officials and public servants completely free to exercise politics without principles,  power without conscience, science without ideals, industry without morality and knowledge without character!

 Tasers are now the device used in the place of reason in order to immediately secure a suspect or disable an inconvenient person or someone who has momentarily lost control of their personal discipline. Lack of tact or tolerance by "officers of the peace" is becoming mainstream in the peacekeeping efforts of our law enforcement agencies and their chosen and increasingly force-minded personnel.

 The manslaughter of Robert Dziekanski in British Columbia witnessed by video tape before international audiences, and the more recent death of Howard Hyde in Nova Scotia, should be deeply disturbing to all Canadians.

 These are markers of no end of trouble ahead if they are not properly addressed according to the fundamentals of law that must apply to every single citizen of Canada with no exceptions. Politicians, policing authorities and regular law enforcement officers are not exempt from the rule of law presently in effect in Canada regarding torture.

 In the parental wisdom of the primary and nuclear social group of the people, the human family and its institution the family home, when violence breaks loose the issues at hand are quickly addressed with non-violent adjustments through parental wisdom to restore the peace. All good parents realize that nothing but troubles loom ahead if this behavior is not immediately resolved and an atmosphere of peace restored to the family home.

 Likewise, in the local community when trouble with an unthinking and unruly neighbour threatens the peace of the neighbourhood, the members of the community make a sincere effort to quickly address these disturbances, through the use of tact and tolerance, in order to re-establish peace in their communities.

No one, but the unthinking and the unwise, resort to the use of violence, knowing full well the consequence of such unthinking action will result in more and escalating violence until finally the peacemakers of the neighbourhood through non-violent methods and the utilization of the higher moral and ethical applications of human relations restore the peace.

 These applied principles of non-violent resolutions to conflict management and resolving human misunderstandings must be applied up to and including all those individuals employed by the people of Canada to KEEP THE PEACE and to be a true representation of the will of the Canadian people to seek non-violent resolutions to difficult social problems.

When society fails to punish crimes, group resentment usually asserts itself as lynch law. In the past, the provision of sanctuary was a means of escaping this sudden group anger. Tasers and pepper spray represent the unwillingness of the individual police officer to surrender private redress to the rule of law. The continued use of violent force by officers of the law will regress society to a lynch-mob form of justice. Individuals will lose faith in the present system of reposing justice to the judicial and legislative bodies of human governments.

Law-abiding and peace-loving citizens will not tolerate torture in our city streets in the place of  a true and idealized justice system where every citizen is entitled to be found innocent or guilty in a formal and civilized court of law.

In our courts of justice legal experts who are  knowledgeable in articulating a proper defense and skilled in ironing out trifling misunderstandings, differences of opinions, outlooks, and viewpoints, they  must skillfully and fairly adjudicate the misunderstanding at hand before social punishment may be administered, or in the case that innocence has been established an individual or group of individuals are set free in accordance with accepted and civilized fundamental law.

Justice makes a nation great, and the greater a nation the more solicitous will it be to see that injustice shall not befall even its most humble citizen. Trouble and retrogression will fall upon any nation when only those who possess money and influence can secure ready justice before its courts! It is the sacred duty of a magistrate to acquit the innocent as well as to punish the guilty. Upon the impartiality, fairness, and integrity of its courts the endurance of a nation depends. Civil government is founded on justice, even as true religion is founded on mercy and for this very reason Canada was founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of
God and the rule of law.

 As our peace officers grow older in years and more experienced in the affairs of keeping the peace, they should also be becoming more tactful in dealing with troublesome men and women and more tolerant in working with stubborn associates. Tact is the fulcrum of social leverage, and tolerance is the earmark of a great soul.

If in the future our officers of the law possess these rare and charming gifts, as the days pass they will become more alert and expert in their worthy efforts to avoid all unnecessary social misunderstandings. Such wise souls are able to avoid much of the trouble which is certain to be the portion of all who suffer from lack of emotional adjustment, those who refuse to grow up, and those who refuse to grow old gracefully. They will have learned through the experience of life that a soft answer turns away anger when confronted on the streets of our cities by unthinking outbursts and resistant behaviour arising from the circumstances of life.

 We, as a people, in this generation have addressed the problems of bullies among our family members and are now  addressing this situation in our schools and places of assembly.

We must turn our attention to those few who have made it into uniforms and pose as our keepers of the peace while in their hearts they are unwilling to surrender to the higher social and ethical calling of peace and good will.
