A Period To Assess Skills and Qualities Before Long Term Commitment
It is not
uncommon for new employees to be subject to a probationary period of
perhaps three months to see if the new employee will be a good fit for
the organization. This gives employers the opportunity to assess the
skills and qualities the employee possesses without engaging in a long
term commitment, which can be costly.
Sadly, there
seems to be no similar mechanism for those chosen to run the affairs of
perhaps the largest corporation in the City of Nanaimo. Having to engage
the services of a facilitator at a cost of possibly $100,000 should
raise some questions about the skills and qualities being demonstrated
by our elected CEO who has now had nine months to demonstrate an ability
to do the job.
According to the Community Charter:
Responsibilities of mayor
116
(1) The mayor is the head and chief executive officer of the municipality.
(2) In addition to the mayor's responsibilities as a member of council, the mayor has the following responsibilities:
(a)
to provide leadership to the council, including by recommending bylaws,
resolutions and other measures that, in the mayor's opinion, may assist
the peace, order and good government of the municipality;
b) to communicate information to the council;
(c) to preside at council meetings when in attendance;
(d)
to provide, on behalf of the council, general direction to municipal
officers respecting implementation of municipal policies, programs and
other directions of the council;
(e) to establish standing committees in accordance with section 141;
(f) to suspend municipal officers and employees in accordance with section 151;
(g) to reflect the will of council and to carry out other duties on behalf of the council;
(h) to carry out other duties assigned under this or any other Act.
NINE MONTHS PROBATION IS LONG ENOUGH
This Mayor and
City Council has now had nine months to settle into their roles as
directors, plotting a course to lead Nanaimo into the next decade,
defining some clear goals and guidelines in an effort to see we are
creating a Nanaimo that is affordable and sustainable.
So far all they
have accomplished was to approve a 6% CUPE wage increase which means
that exempt staff will also see a wage increase of the same magnitude
over the same period. They are barely any closer to conducting a Core
Review than they were six months ago and with the way they are
approaching some big budget items, the review may be little more than
another farcical, costly report.
There was a
motion by council they would neither increase nor decrease service
levels until after the Core Review had been complete. The intent of
course is to finally get a handle on the number of tax dollars the
community can actually afford and how those funds should be allocated. A
core review was a common mantra of some members of the previous
council, including the three that used to be referred to as the Three
Amigos.
Now, we have
the Mayor making noises to the effect that perhaps hiring more police,
and building a new firehall and hiring 20 more firefighters may be
possible before completing the core review! Really? That is what he has
been suggesting.
This coming
Monday, staff is trying to put the automated garbage trucks on the fast
track. It being a multi-million dollar decision, which has all the
earmarks of being another hasty decision dealing with our garbage which
led to the current problems we are having with poorly planned split
packer trucks. There are lots of questions that need answering before we
rush headlong into a multi-million dollar decision. If council approves
this purchase before the core review is complete, they might as well
put the core review paper onto cardboard cores and install them in the
city hall bathrooms.
STATEMENT to RCMP - GRC, Cst. L. M. (Les) Wilch, General Duty, 303 Prideaux, Nanaimo, BC V9R 2N3 RE: Nanaimo RCMP file #15-26471
Statement of: Chris J. Slater, D.O.B.: August 19, 1947, e-mail: cjslater07@gmail.com. Phone: 250 591-3845 Residential Address: Confidential to RCMP, Nanaimo
Thursday, September 10, 2015. I received a telephone call from a prospective tenant April Campbell who agreed to pick me up at my rented apartment, drive me out to view my 21 ft, Park Model home at #4 Southgate Mobile Home Park and return me home after viewing, which she did by picking me up about 4:30 pm. It's been awhile since I've gone as a recipient, to my favourite charity, the Salvation Army Hope Center in Nanaimo to eat. As we were going south on Terminal Avenue, approaching the Hope Center, I asked April if she had had something to eat and when she replied she was too busy at work, I asked her if she would like to have dinner with me at my "Dinner Club" and went on to explain about how some nights there is "live entertainment / theatre". When April agreed I told her to turn right into the parking lot after the lights on Commercial street, but unfortunately the lot was full so I asked April to pull out of the lot, turn left at the lights on Esplanade and follow to the south, parking in the shade of a building there. April and I had a very good meal, no problems with the entertainment, I told April as how I ALWAYS take whatever is being offered because there is ALWAYS someone else who can use the food. The desert that night was APPLE PIE. My regular friends and servers, Judy and Cheryl weren't at work that night, I miss their infectious good humour and kindly manner in dealing with people and sometimes very disturbed clients and "performers". About 5:20 pm (before regular closing time of 5:30) April and I left the Salvation Army exiting to the right and almost immediately there was a commotion from someone I didn't recognize as April was in front of me, but then I heard a stream of profanities directed at me by someone blocking the sidewalk.
At that time I recognized Shaya Magrath, a former tenant I had to evict from my home at Southgate Mobile Home Park. Then Shaya stopped threatening me and threw a projectile at me with the intent of causing me bodily harm. Two men came out from the Labour exchange and asked what was going on, they had heard Shaya screaming obscenities at me and saw the projectile (apple pies) that hit their building and lay scattered on their sidewalk, April explained the circumstances and I was asked what they could do to help . Shaya was blocking (unknowingly) our access to April's car, so I told them I was afraid of Shaya and to please call the police. I was told by the manager April and I should wait inside the building as the exchange wouldn't be closing until 6:00. When the RCMP arrived, was told of the problem, because of my health and not knowing where Shaya had disappeared to, I asked for and received safe conduct to April's car.
I am afraid of this woman because she has REPEATEDLY with the intent to hurt, injure, intimidate, cause me financial loss or damage me and / or my good reputation : 1. Made false accusations against me, that led to my false arrest, detention and assault upon me by an RCMP officer on August 17, 2014. 2. Made false character references that later proved to be untrue / misleading on her Application to Rent. 3. Shaya and her partner, Robert Hogan have lain in wait for me on the day they were supposed to vacate, instead Robert Hogan tried to provoke me into hitting him. 4. Have repeatedly damaged my home by removing and destroying services and amenities. 5. Have repeatedly damaged SGMHP, which damage I had to reimburse. $226 for Router Rooter; damage main sewer in park, plunge toilet 4X by park manageress, Pat Wilson. 6. Caused problems with me and my neighbours; Connie in Unit 2 who they claimed I had sold them my home and Tony in Unit 5 who complained to me they had drug parties and partied all night, right outside his bedroom windows. 7. I had stored at the property an electric bike that I wanted for my transportation and Shaya had expressed interest in, instead they turned it into junk by stealing the drive hub wheel assembly. 8. Violating their rental agreement by not paying their pet deposit and smoking in the unit. 9. Damaging my bicycle also stored on the property by removing and stealing it's seat. 10. Cutting my replacement locks from the trailer. 11. First time came back after they vacated by crawling through a window they made insecure. They regained possession by stealth. 12. Second time they broke entry door window, put plug in kitchen sink, turned on water, overflowed and flooded my home. 13. Threw my heavy duty building material they illegally used, off the roof, damaging my black berry bushes and causing more water damage. 14. Cut off all appliance cords plus mini-light set was chopped! 15. Illegally made, against me as the owners wishes, makesift connections to water and electric connections. 16. Damaged, did not maintain smoke detectors in unit. 17. Took down, against my wishes, my interior disability railings. 18. Removed, stole raised disabled toilet seat. 19. Slashed and damaged note center. 20. Bed bug infestation required hiring and paying for dumping mattress. 21. Wrote all over the interior mirrors with crayons, indelible markers "GOOF" 22. Illegal substance abuse, evidence seen by me and witness Karen Ferguson and attested to by other park residents who are struggling to stay clean. 23. Damages to my personal property and bedding; duvet, sheets pillows and cases. 24. I now know Shaya and Robert are Serial Senior Abusers. When Robert first became my friend on Facebook, I discovered we had one friend in common, Lisa Frykberg. I contacted Lisa and discovered too late; Shaya and Robert's ABUSE of my friend Andrew MacMillan of Saltair. During Andrew's final illness they were stealing Andrews assets, including metals. After Andrew died they went on to abusing Lisa, Andrew's housekeeper and stole her computer. In their application to rent their gave as former landlady, Shirley Foley of Saltair who had died so I wouldn't be able to contact her. Later I was told by Laura Parks also of SGMHP, who was Shirley Foley's girlfriend and was undergoing chemotherapy and they were ABUSING HER until she died. And that is how they became my ONGOING problem. They have made me and my wife Annamie Colina FEAR for my safety, become depressed and suffer extreme financial hardship.
I do not feel safe on the streets of Nanaimo or places that I used to enjoy and frequent like the Salvation Army whose help I need and appreciate, but now because of Shaya's VIOLENCE, LIES, VANDALISM, FALSE WITNESS and PUBLIC MISCHIEF I'm afraid. When April and I visited the unit, April told me it was too small for her furniture. And because I have secured the unit by closing all means of access and ventilation, it being a hot day, the unit closed up for at least a month, April observed it would give her a problem with her asthma and probably me a problem with my congestive heart failure. Because of my health and financial situation I've been unable to pay for or personally repair the roof, clean and paint the interior. I want this woman arrested for assault, creating a public disturbance, public mischief, theft, and her out of control criminal activities requiring multiple attendance by Nanaimo RCMP. I feel Shaya has become such a problem, and is obviously off her medications that she should be appreended, incarcerated and evaluated for her own and the public safety.
I'm aware of the "Good Neighbour" policy between the Salvation Army and the surrounding businesses so I want a "no contact" Order preventing Shaya's attendance at places that I NEED to visit like the Salvation Army.
Further I want VICTIM'S ASSISTANCE for the trauma and as yet unresolved and continuing financial losses I've suffered from these SERIAL SENIOR ABUSERS, Shaya Magrath and Robert Hogan. This is the statement of Chris J. Slater of (undisclosed) Nanaimo, B.C., Canada email: cjslater07@gmail.com regarding events preceding and occurring outside the Salvation Army on Thursday
Because they and their superiors no longer KNOW the simple FACTS of what they are tasked to do.
Repeatedly when I've called on them to assist me by protecting me from persons who are breaking CRIMINAL LAW, I've ended up being victimized instead of protected.
On the other hand, when criminals who are making false and malicious allegations against me, unsubstantiated by FACTS, and it is a CIVIL LAW matter I've ended up being TRAUMATIZED and INJURED by the R.C.M.P.
Simply put most R.C.M.P. and their SUPERIORS ARE UNABLE to discern between CIVIL and CRIMINAL law.
The most recent example of this I intend to sue the officers involved in CIVIL COURT, the Provincial Court of British Columbia (PCBC).
Last night, Tuesday, December 9 at 6 pm, when I got home from returning empties and buying some groceries at the Country Grocer on Bowen Road in Nanaimo, B.C., Canada, there was a message on my TAD from Pat Wilson, Manager of Southgate Mobile Home Park. I phoned, left a message as there was no answer, and said I would phone again in the morning. I worked through the night, went to bed at 6 am this morning and was woken up by the phone ringing about 11:30 am. It was Pat telling me Shaya and Robert had moved out and left my trailer unlocked and insecure, could I please attend there today, Wednesday 10? My walker was already packed with the plastic garbage bags and new padlocks so I told Pat I would be there as soon as possible. Pat warned me it was a real mess.
Shaya Magrath and Robert Hogan have repeatedly born false witness (lied!) against me to the neighbours, Park Manager and most recently to the Nanaimo, RCMP ever since I foolishly let then move into my 21' park model 5th wheel on May 20, 2014. I took along the MOVE OUT FORMS I had expected to fill out when Shaya and Robert moved out on August 7, 2014 upon expiry of my 30 day notice to vacate FOR CAUSE given July 7 for extaordinary damages to what was formerly my home...
Here are pictures of my ruined home by these vandals.
Will be added later...
