Dear Minister Toews:

Re: Allegations against former Supreme Court Justice, T. Alex Hickman

It has come to our attention that a MR. BYRON PRIOR, a citizen of Canada, has been granted his right to Freedom of Expression by being permitted to picket on the lawn of the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa for the past two months.

We are informed that in April 2006, Mr. Norman Doyle, the Conservative Member of Parliament for Newfoundland, had a meeting with Mr. Prior. This meeting was witnessed by third parties on the lawns of Parliament. Subsequent to this meeting, Mr. Doyle informed Mr. Prior that he would personally hand his documents and concerns to you for your attention.

Since that time, now over 5 weeks ago, Mr. Prior has made several calls to your office and to Mr. Doyle’s office. According to Mr. Prior, neither office has had the courtesy of acknowledging whether an investigation into his allegations against Mr. Hickman is underway or whether or not your office intends to proceed in any manner to address Mr. Prior’s concerns.

We are aware of the alleged crimes that have been perpetrated against Mr. Prior and his siblings by former Supreme Court Justice of Newfoundland, T.Alex Hickman and others.
We are also aware that the Criminal Code of Canada does not pose a statute of limitations on cases of childhood sexual abuse.

Along with many other national and international organizations, the Canadian Family Congress is concerned that Mr. Prior’s allegations seem to have been ignored for well over two decades and that the alleged perpetrators have been free to prosper and profit while Mr. Prior and his siblings have had to live with the debilitation that injustice and intimidation imposes upon one’s family on a daily basis.

Mr. Prior’s website, http://maxpages.com/sexualabuse, while unedited and apparently amateur in presentation, contains extremely serious allegations against former Chief Justice of Newfound, T. Alex Hickman. These allegations appear to be corroborated by Mr. Prior’s siblings.

There are now other websites confirming Mr. Prior’s presence in Ottawa and his struggle to obtain justice. If you do a Google search on “Byron Prior”, the results speak for themselves.

We believe that Mr. Prior is a Whistler-blower, and that as such, he should be afforded the protection and credibility that Prime Minister proposes in his Federal Accountability Act.
We believe that Mr. Prior has not enjoyed any support over the years because of the innate fear instilled in ordinary folk by organized criminals throughout Canada.

We voted for Prime Minister Harper precisely because we want organized crime and corruption eliminated in Canada.

We are aware of our duty to report crimes against children and of the government’s mandate to investigate these crimes where local authorities such as the RCMP and the provincial Supreme Courts have failed to prosecute these crimes.

We therefore request that you kindly inform Mr. Prior, who remains a fixed subject on the Parliament lawn seven days a week, whether or not your department intends to investigate the allegations against T. Alex Hickman.

The Canadian Family Congress takes matters such as this very seriously as we acknowledge injustice in the form of organized crime to be the greatest threat against Canadian Families today.

We have a duty to our families and to our children: our leaders of tomorrow, to work together to eradicate criminal elements in society, in the legal system and in government.

We thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,



Lisa Haeck for the
Canadian Family Congress
Whistler, B.C.
