Thursday, August 8, 2019 – On the evening of August 6, 2019, I’d sent an email to Joseph Kazubek asking about his representation of John Cerino/Richard Pollington in the various ongoing matters (Doc 300).

Thursday August 20, 2020 – A Display of Douchebaggery, Dishonour, or Due Process?
These guys don’t even follow their own rules…
Friday, September 4, 2020 – “What a piece of work is man”…Some of Us More Than Others
Just a little bullying douchebaggery from City Council…nothing to see here, folks. Move along now.
Saturday, August 15, 2020 – “It’s getting nazi out there.”
I read with some interest Councilor Terry Whitehead’s opinion piece in the Hamilton Spectator on August 10, 2020 and the reply by two front line social workers. I’ll post a copy of the text here, with commentary added in red: Communities should have their say on camps Hamilton provides comprehensive programming for housing and social […]

This is a quick summary/placeholder post done on my phone. There was yet another LTB hearing, this time a telephone merits hearing for John’s L2 eviction application.

The bedroom ceiling is repaired, slowly.
Chapter 41 – Friday March 1, 2019 to Sunday March 31, 2019
The tally is at 18 hours 5 minutes of hearing time at the LTB, in 13 hearings, two by telephone, eleven in person (counting the Case Management Hearing and mediation session of May 19, 2017 as hearings). It has also used up 9 hours and 50 minutes of a mediator’s time.
There have been at least ten complaints to police (at least 6 from our landlord and his crew) resulting in 9 responses, and charges being laid in one case.
Municipal Law Enforcement had also expended approximately 5 man-days (including two man days expended sitting in an LTB waiting room, waiting to be called as witnesses)
This was getting expensive for the taxpayer.
Chapter 39 – Tuesday January 1, 2019 to Thursday January 31, 2019
This brings the total tally to at least ten complaints to police (at least 6 from our landlord and his crew) resulting in 9 responses, and charges being laid in one case.
