OPP officers' case delayed

Posted By SHAWN GIILCK, QMI AGENCY
The court case against the two Collingwood OPP officers charged with assault has been put off until Aug. 17.
Provincial Const. Jeremy Shiffman, 38, a five-year member of the OPP, and Provincial Const. Ashley Plumb, 26, a three-year member of the OPP, have each been charged with assault following an incident involving a woman on the Black Ash Trail.
According to police, on the morning of June 1, a 34-year-old Collingwood woman was out walking along the Black Ash Trail. At the same time, two people -- a man and a woman -- were running along the trail when a physical altercation occurred between them and the woman.
Shiffman and Plumb appeared briefly in Collingwood's Ontario Court of Justice Tuesday.
The two officers were charged on June 17 following an investigation by the OPP's Professional Standards Bureau. They have been assigned to administrative duties.
The Crown Attorney's office has not yet provided Plumb and Shiffman with disclosure, a legal representative said. Each officer is represented by a different lawyer.
The case was bound over until Aug. 17 at 9:30 a.m. to allow time for the disclosure to be provided.
In legal terms, disclosure is the presentation of all evidence collected by the police and the Crown Attorney's office pertaining to the case to the defence lawyers. Providing that material is mandatory

If it looks like a tax, chances are it is a tax

Home / Comment / Editorial
William Shakespeare once wrote that a rose by any other name is still a rose. The same could be said about the new eco fee that the provincial government snuck in on July 1 by taking advantage of the din around the implementation of the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST). If it looks like a tax, and hurts like a tax, chances are it is a tax, no matter what the minions in Toronto say.
The reaction to the eco tax (we will not call it a fee, that is just nonsense) has been slow in developing, primarily because of the way it was snuck in, without prior debate or knowledge of opposition MPPs so they could at least vigorously question it during question period. Only now, two weeks later, are people starting to feel the sting of this eco tax, and are starting to scream loud enough to wake up their MPPs.
Consider this: On more than 5,000 everyday products you purchase, there is now an eco tax that ranges from 20% to 40%, and more in some cases.
Ostensibly, this is to cover the cost of recycling these products or their containers by a nearly anonymous group called the Ontario Stewardship Council, an unelected, unaccountable group of lobbyists and tree-huggers with little care how their tax will impact on middle-income and elderly Ontarians. A simple bottle of Javex bleach, on sale in many stores last week for 99 cents, cost you $1.52 before you left the store after 15 cents for the HST and 38 cents for the eco tax were added at the cash.
This affects a wide range of products, everything from electric razors and toothbrushes, to batteries, to sunblock, flashlights, detergent ... you name it, and the province will be digging into your pocket for the recycling fee (eco tax) it says it needs to dispose of its remains safely ... despite the fact municipalities already tax you for recycling and disposal.
This should get your blood boiling, not just for the underhanded way it was implemented, but for the simple fact that it is precisely what is meant by the term "taxation without representation," which is illegal under the British North America Act. There was no discussion, no feedback, no due process.
Is that a democracy?

An 11-year veteran OPP officer stationed at the Grenville County detachment in Prescott has been suspended from duty after a police raid Sunday at his Augusta Township residence.
Const. Jim Blanchette, 45, was suspended effective Monday as a result of an investigation launched after police received information alleging there was stolen property in his possession, said OPP spokesman Sgt. Kristine Rae.
Rae said the investigation was launched immediately by the OPP professional standards bureau.
During Sunday's raid, police seized several miscellaneous antique items, including furniture, eight unrestricted long guns and one restricted handgun, said Rae.
Blanchette and his wife Robin, 44, have been charged with nine counts of careless storage of a firearm, nine counts of possession of an unregistered weapon and one count of possession of property obtained by crime.
They were released from police custody on conditions and a promise to appear in Brockville court Sept. 24.
Rae said Blanchette is suspended with pay, according to the Police Services Act.
