Oakville Ontario
Monday May 28, 2001. I returned to my home in Oakville at 1:15 PM from my employment. As I entered my driveway I felt, once again, the prying eyes of watchers. I glanced about and felt I had spotted Scientology Intelligence (Office of Special Affairs) or hired PI thugs watching my home. It would not be the first time.This was not unexpected. Keith and I had peacefully picketed Scientology in Toronto numerous times in the last 10 days. They had not yet come to picket my home and harass my wife and children again. At the pickets the Scientologists had stopped sending out its goons squad to harass me and *quietly walk elbow to elbow with Keith Henson* discussing his conviction on concocted OSA lies in the US. Instead, the Co$ had taken to hand wringing, hiding and wailing to the police they were being terrorized by our presence and the words of our signs and handouts. Keith and I had theorized they would begin to tail us so they would have forewarning whenever we loaded a car with Picket materials and headed into Toronto. But today it was not the OSA. It was something more terrible. Something sickening to me: Perversion of the Canadian Justice System by a Criminally Convicted Corporation: Scientology. At approximately 2 :15 pm Keith Henson and I were shopping at the Oakville Place Mall. Finished, we went to my four door Protege which was parked in the lower parking lot near the main entrance to the Grocery store and the Mall Food Court. We were seated in the vehicle, which was the last car in a row of cars, with the passenger door opening onto the lane way. Immediately after I started the car, the Oakville Police ETF executed a High Risk Take Down upon myself and Keith Henson. An unmarked Van blocked the rear of my car and another unmarked van pulled up on the passenger side of the vehicle. My first reaction was that these were Scientology paid Bounty Hunters attempting to do a kidnapping of Keith, Then I saw the blue Flak jackets, uniforms and badges for a moment and after that all I saw was guns. Lots of guns. Two Officers carrying machine guns had Keith in their sights and were standing to the right of the car. Two more with drawn Glock handguns had me in their line of fire. We were ordered to freeze and keep our hands in view. Keith slowly raised his. As did I. Keith was ordered to exit the vehicle, hands in view and to lie prone on the ground. Keith complied without comment. He was quickly handcuffed (and shortly thereafter gently raised to his feet.) Then an officer opened my door and took control of me with by grip and twist of my left wrist. I was taken from the car to the rear of the vehicle and bent over the trunk. My pockets were emptied and fanny pack removed. I was also handcuffed. The Oakville Police Emergency Task Force had acted professionally and gained total control of this situation in moments. They were, given the circumstances, courteous and considerate of the Grandfather they were arresting and the slightly overweight middle aged local citizen they were detaining for the moment. At the scene were at least six ETF officers in battle gear, at least one of which was a woman. There were also at least three marked cruisers, besides the two unmarked vans and another 4 to 6 uniform Oakville uniformed cops. There was also the leader of this High Risk Take Down; A Metro Toronto Police Force Detective form 22 Division. I believe his name was BonForte. The Detective was in plain clothes and questioned me briefly to record my particulars. He made certain statements to me which I shall not repeat at this time but have forwarded to Keiths Legal counsel here in Canada. The Detective stated he was executing an Immigration Canada Warrant for Keith Hensons Arrest. And had employed the Oakville Police ETF and Uniformed Officers to execute the warrant. Keith was to be taken to 22 Division in Toronto and handed over to Immigration there. I later discovered he was then to be sent to the infamous Immigration Metro West Holding Centre at 111 Disco Rd in Etobicoke. This is near the Toronto International Airport. I immediately called Keiths Immigration Lawyers: Mamann and Associates. Mr. Polton was on the case immediately and shortly thereafter spoke with Keith and the Immigration Officer detaining him at 22 Division. The apparent basis of this Immigration Warrant is the allegation Keith Henson failed to disclose to Information to Immigration Canada, when he entered Canada on May 12, 2001. That information was an alleged a Felony Fugitive Warrant in the US, and/or a misdemeanor so called "hate crime" (Calif 422.6) in California. The fact is, Keith was not wanted at that time. And tho' he may be wanted now for a misdemeanor flight this itself is not a violation, according to the Lawyers. Also, since Keith is in process of claiming Refugee Status from Scientology oppression of Free Speech and endangerment of his life, all backed by US Government assent, then Keiths failure "o act with candor" and volunteer to immigration that he was convicted of a misdemeanor in California is moot. This arrest was a perversion of Canadian Justice. According to Immigration and Metro Police they were acting on a "tip from a reliable source" that Keith Henson was a danger to the community. How ironic. Scientology lies are considered reliable. L. Ron Hubbard was right about some things: "You can control people by lies..." "the law can be very easily used to harass". "Find or *manufacture* enough threat ... to ruin him utterly." " To control local government overtly overwhelm them or covertly infiltrate and subvert them." " Tell acceptable truths." There was *no* justification in the law to execute this kind of high tension *armed and dangerous* arrest. Immigration and the Metro and Oakville police Department were acting strictly on false and misleading information supplied to them from Criminal Scientology sources. Even the police at the scene finally realized that the "armed and dangerous" grandfather Keith Henson was not threat and never was because my car was never searched and neither has my home been searched for any stray ICBMs . The lies of Criminal Scientology put Officers, a citizen and a Tourist starting a Refugee claim. at risk. One or more officials at the Immigration or Metro and Oakville Police has acted precipitously, without all the facts or doing all the homework and an incredible disability which prevent the simpler use of a phone. To call me. The police knew Keith Henson was staying at my home. Had the Officer In Charge of this sickeningly dangerous circus bothered to check the CPIC system they would have found my record to be spotless. They would have found out I qualify for Airport Security clearance. They would have discovered I was instrumental in the arrest, trial and conviction of my own son on minor drug trafficking offences a few years ago. ( My son has straightened out nicely.) They would have found out that they could have simply *called* me and asked for Keith to surrender himself at the Oakville Police station. And it would have been done. The ETF action was not justified, not rational, and while executed flawlessly was an unnecessary risk which put the lives or the Officers,. Keith, myself and the public at large in a crowded shopping mall parking lot all in *real* jeopardy. And this jeopardy is the direct result of the Lies of Criminals in the Criminal Cult of Scientology. I think it is time for Federal , Ontario and especially Toronto Police authorities to get off the pot and act on the *volumes* of evidence supplied and at their disposal. Instead of acting on the unreliable tips of Criminally Convicted Scientology , the Police should lay charges on the Toronto Org of Scientology and specific members, for the known and evidentiary proven acts of Extortion, Violent Assault, multiple acts of Criminal Harassment over the last 10 years, Criminal Mischief , Organized Crime Gang Activity and Trademark Infringements the Scientologists have committed. Not "tips" but real hard evidence: victim interviews, videoed victim statements, audio recordings of extortion threats, video recordings of intimidation of individuals by groups of Scientology thugs, death threats, eyewitness accounts and victim complaints of assault, years of evidence of stalking and harassments by criminal Scientology OSA operatives, organized libel campaigns, threats to disrupt individuals places of employment, including public schools and investigations of teachers and staff, deliberate terrorizing of elderly parents and siblings of those critical to Scientology in Canada, video recordings of Scientology hate crimes against gay/bisexual critics, false statements by Scientology to Police and other *real* evidence. Maybe I should just call in an anonymous tip and claim Scientology has ICBMs. Why not? It worked for the Criminally Convicted Cult of Greed and Power. What is really ironic is that cash strapped Metro Toronto is partly funding these documented criminal activities by the Criminal Cult. Toronto has given and apparently continues to grant Scientology a 50% property tax break on their Yonge and St Mary property. A property which is mainly used to retail and run quid pro quo workshops called "courses" and "processing" etc. The US Supreme court, in 1993, and basing its decision on English common law, ruled that Scientology "courses and processes" were a profit making enterprise and should be taxed. (This was subsequently infamously ignored by the US IRS and weak willed Congress/Senate). Charities Division of the former Revenue Canada did not grant Scientology Religious Charity Status in part because Scientology eschews charity as "rewarding the downstat" . As did the Tax authorities in Great Britain. Perhaps Ottawa, Ontario and especially authorities in Toronto are less interested in justice and fair play in the courts and in the division of property tax liabilities than tackling the infamously litigious well heeled and very criminal cult of Scientology. After all why pull the tail of the skunk? Scientology is too small a fraud and too loud an opponent to bother with, eh? Maybe if the politcos had ETF guns shoved in their faces because of Scientology lies they would get the moral backbone to do their jobs, difficult as that might be. This mess is going public with the high profile Immigration Law Firm of Mamann and Associates acting for Keith Henson. And a lot of red faces are likely on the Federal and Toronto political scene when it is shown they were duped once more by Canada's only Criminally Convicted "Church": Scientology. Wm. Gregg Hagglund
