Big Rex, Wills Ridge, Robbie Royal we need your help...Hey Guys I have done the homework .... Here are the Facts!

Each and every one on this list knew about the illegal LTD deductions By SISIP (Maritime Life now Manulife) and yet not a single “Top Soldier” did anything administrative to manage a policy they owned and controlled for all CF members. Every Minister of National Defence did nothing and each and every one knew as well. Every PM knew and yet failed to do anything. 32 elite politicians elected into office to protect and honour the very citizens they robbed. You do the math and I can guarantee the accumulated pensions of these thirty two officials will be more than McInnes Cooper will make from the SISIP Class Action.

Awesome letter Will's
It will make an impact

wow great one wills.

propat

will's we fly the same way.

here is what i have sent to Judge Barnes. It may be totally out of whack but it is what it is.

Justice Barnes,
It with great hesitancy that i write this letter. I have reviewed the proposed settlement that was bought to fruition after numerous bargaining sessions between the plaintiff's and defendant's representatives. I am in agreement with the majority of the agreement, however, I am troubled by the fact that we, the plaintiffs, must assume the huge legal fees resulting from this lawsuit. I am informed that you personally referred to the government's actions in this clawback as being illegal? I have reviewed numerous case files regarding the awarding, or lack thereof, of legal fees in class action lawsuits. It seems to me, a layperson with no experience in your world of legalities, case law reviews etc. that there is always a huge burden to prove that one side or the other in these lawsuits should shoulder all the accumulated legal fees.
My point is that you must have had a very very good reason on which to base your statement that the government acted illegally in continuing the clawback of our LTD payments. Did you base this assertion on sound reasoning after reviewing the complete file, including the files and statements of several inter-governmental departments that ALL advised the government of the day to cease and desist this unlawful clawback? I realize there is a huge burden of proof when awarding legal costs to one side or the other in these legal battles, however, I strongly suspect this burden of proof has been amply met in this case, otherwise you and others would not have utilized the term "ILLEGAL" is discussing GOC's participation.

I do not know what your legal parameters, limits and leeway in bringing this case to closure are, however, I would like to make the following recommendations:
1) Approve this settlement as submitted with the exception of the disposition of legal fees;
2) Have the class members be reimbursed what they are owed with the exception of the legal fees. These fees should be deducted from the members as stated in the agreement, however, the funds should be placed in trust pending final resolution;
3) Conduct or cause to be conducted a full review of the decision to have the class assume these fees;
4) Find in favour of the class and redistribute the funds held in trust back to the members; and
5) Find the GOC liable for all legal fees due to their malicious and illegal participation in these clawbacks.

In summary, I do not know if you have the jurisdiction or power to implement any or all of my recommendations but I hope you give this your full attention and possibly seek other internal avenues which could result in the justice I seek.

I will Sapper, perhaps I can bring a special book with the names of those on csat and have those attending sign it honoring all those who could not be there but are there in spirit.

Whooooooooooahhhhhhhhhhhhha Sapper Zodiak
Fair Winds brother

Its nice to see all of you strangers coming together as friends, nay comrades in arms. The esprit du corps here is very heartwarming. Please remember people like myself who couldn't attend. Broken and smashed since age 20. A life lived from the "sidelines". Just as we remember our fallen at Remembrance services, please remember us. Know that you are our voice we had lost for many years. Please let the court see our pain through you. You may be disabled Veterans, but for a few brief shiny hours, you are returning heroes again. Walk well, heads high. Thank you all.

Only one room left at the Sheraton. Radison is full. I found one at Westin. Thanks for the intel Georges. Looks like we will drive as the flights from Kingston too expensive.
