Madam Speaker, I am pleased to rise today in the House to speak to this very important opposition day motion that comes as a response to the tragedy that occurred in Quebec City a week and a half ago.
It is a disaster wherein a young woman was let down by the justice system and murdered by a violent criminal. Our motion calls for:
...the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security to conduct hearings into this matter, including a review of the changes made by the government in 2017 to the board’s nomination process.
It is the responsibility of the House to ensure measures are taken so that no tragedy like this ever happens again.
This terrible situation should not have been allowed to happen the first time. We have a man given a life sentence for horrifically murdering his 32-year-old female partner. The criminal was assessed as a high risk to reoffend, particularly with a partner, but as it goes, and as we have seen happen time and again, an offender serves a portion of a sentence and is then turned loose, regardless of the risk to reoffend.
In this case, the man was granted day parole as a violent criminal with a risk to reoffend, and then had his day parole extended last September by the Parole Board. They noted that a risk management strategy had been developed to allow this man to meet women for his sexual gratification. How did this not raise a red flag within the Parole Board? A violent criminal with a particular risk to reoffend against vulnerable women was encouraged by his parole officer to solicit sex from vulnerable women.
The result was a preventable and truly heartbreaking tragedy. The lack of regard for the safety of Canadians is astounding. The Parole Board put this criminal's supposed needs above concern for possible future victims, showing an extreme lack of foresight and prudence.
Two former Parole Board members have pointed to a change in the Parole Board of Canada's nomination procedures. This has resulted in a lack of experienced members. That may have been a factor in this murder.
If that is the case, that inexperienced Parole Board members made this decision and got it so wrong that it resulted in the murder of a vulnerable young woman, then those members who made the decision and the people who appointed them must face consequences.
This woman's death could have been prevented. An inquiry into the Parole Board's decision must be made. I am sure that all of my colleagues in this place will join me in condemning this inherently unjust decision, and call for an external inquiry.
When the Minister of Public Safety was asked about this and what was being done to get to the bottom of this case, he told the House on Monday that a full investigation would be conducted jointly by the commissioner of corrections and the chair of the Parole Board of Canada to determine the circumstances surrounding the killer's release, and to ensure lessons are learned from it. The Parole Board will investigate the Parole Board, continuing the legacy of unaccountability.
Canadians need and deserve an external inquiry so that we can make sure prudent decisions are made in the future and that violent offenders are not encouraged to solicit sex from vulnerable women, victims of prostitution, victims of what appears to be a reckless decision by the authors of the so-called risk management strategy.
This case is a prime example of a failure on the justice file, of a revolving-door prison system, and of putting criminals ahead of victims. With the passage of Bill C-75, the previous Liberal government cemented its legacy as being soft on crime. It made sweeping changes that were very concerning and weakened our justice system.
That piece of legislation watered down penalties for over 100 serious crimes. Dangerous criminals should not be getting fines for serious offences such as gang crime, using date rape drugs and impaired driving causing bodily harm. Across our country, victims' groups and law enforcement have opposed the government's weakness on crime and its refusal to take violent crime seriously.
Canadians deserve better than a Prime Minister who prioritizes the rights of criminals over the rights of victims. Conservatives will always put the rights of victims and law-abiding Canadians ahead of the rights of criminals.
This case is a continuation of the Liberals' soft-on-crime approach failing victims. If we look back at the previous Parliament, there are glaring examples of where the government unjustly put criminals before victims.
In 2018, Liberals fought tooth and nail against doing the right thing and putting Tori Stafford's killer behind bars after the killer had been transferred to a healing lodge. It was only after a public outcry, and weeks of pressure from the family and the official opposition, that they relented and put the killer back where she belonged.
A further example is when the Liberal government defended its decision to use veterans' benefits to pay for mental health services for a man who never served a day in his life in the military, but was locked up for murdering a female police officer.
Although the killer claimed to have PTSD from committing this truly heinous crime, the Liberals continued to defend their use of those benefits for this individual. It was out of touch, it was unjust and it again put the supposed rights of a criminal before the victim.
This approach is in stark contrast to the legacy of the Conservatives on the justice file. Our record is based on the most foundational meaning of justice being rendered to the other where it is due. This was showcased in the Victims Bill of Rights, which set a path for victims of crime to be protected and to have their voices heard during judicial proceedings and the subsequent incarceration of an offender.
The Victims Bills of Rights has much to offer victims. They should have their security considered by the appropriate authorities in the criminal justice system, and they should have the right to convey their views about decisions made by appropriate authorities in the criminal justice system that affect their rights under this act, and to have them considered. The right to have their security considered is truly foundational.
In closing, Canada's Conservatives are calling on the Liberal government to condemn the board's extremely misguided, reckless and negligent decision, and to conduct hearings into this matter, including a review of the changes made by the Liberal government in 2017 to the board's nomination process. This motion should be supported by all members of the House to correct an injustice, to review the circumstances of the Parole Board's shocking decision and to hold those responsible to account.
Nothing we can do will bring these young women back. However, as lawmakers, we can make sure it does not happen again. That starts by putting the rights of victims before those of criminals, and by supporting this motion to conduct hearings into this matter. I am calling on all members of the House to support our motion.

Palestinian officials have issued video footage of President Yasser Arafat, apparently smiling and sitting up in bed surrounded by the medical team treating him in his West Bank compound. Described as seriously ill, Arafat is being treated by a team of foreign doctors after his health first took a turn for the worse on Wednesday when he was stricken with severe stomach pains. .
His wife Suha has flown in from Paris to join him. She and his medical team are reported to have decided Arafat is to be immediately flown to Paris for more extensive medical treatment. His wife lives in France and has not seen her husband since a Palestinian revolt against Israel broke out in 2000. Arafat, whose health has visibly deteriorated recently, has been suffering from Parkinson’s for some time. Officials said that on Wednesday he collapsed in his West Bank compound and remained unconscious for about ten minutes, though they also report that he has been able to eat and talk and say his prayers. Arafat has gone from guerrilla war icon to Nobel prize-winning peacemaker to a shunned old leader mired in an insoluble Middle East conflict. He has long been known for his knack of thriving on crisis. He has survived a plane crash, assassination attempts and the Israeli siege of his Beirut headquarters.

text: One of major asphalt pavement distresses is the moisture damage which influences the degradation of the viscoelastic properties of the mixture. The present work assesses the impact of practicing micro-crack healing on the viscoelastic properties of moisture damaged asphalt concrete. Roller compacted slab samples of asphalt concrete were prepared at optimum binder content. Beam specimens were obtained from the slab samples and subjected to moisture damage. Part of the asphalt concrete beam specimens were then tested under dynamic flexural stresses, while another part of the asphalt concrete beams was subjected to micro-cracks healing process using external heating at 60° C for 120 minutes, then tested under the dynamic flexural stresses. The viscoelastic properties of asphalt concrete in terms of permanent deformation, flexural stiffness, phase angle, and cumulative dissipated energy were monitored and compared among both testing conditions. It was observed that a significant increase in the flexural stiffness could be observed after healing. The increase in the phase angle after healing is significant at the early stages of loading. Higher cumulative dissipated energy could be observed for mixture which had practiced micro-crack healing. It was concluded that healing process does not exhibit positive influence on permanent deformation of moisture damaged asphalt concrete. A significant increase of 41.6 % in the flexural stiffness could be observed after healing after the first load repetition as compared with the mixture before healing. The permanent deformation after healing is higher by 22 % at failure as compared with that of mixture before healing.

British researchers stated on Wednesday that they had recognized proteins within the coronavirus which can be recognised via T-cells of people who find themselves uncovered to the virus however face up to an infection, most likely offering a brand new goal for vaccine builders.
Immunity in opposition to COVID-19 is a posh image, and whilst there’s proof of waning antibody ranges six months after vaccination, T-cells also are believed to play an important position in offering coverage.
The College Faculty London (UCL) researchers tested 731 well being staff in two London hospitals all through the primary wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, and located that many had no longer examined sure regardless of most likely publicity to the unique coronavirus.
They discovered that, whilst a subset of the employees didn’t generate antibodies or take a look at sure with PCR checks, that they had nonetheless generated a big and wide T-cell reaction following imaginable publicity.
This means that reasonably than the employees fending off publicity to the coronavirus altogether, the T-cells had cleared the virus sooner than there have been any signs or sure take a look at outcome – a so-called “abortive an infection”, the researchers stated.
“We all know that some people stay uninfected regardless of having most likely publicity to the virus,” stated Leo Swadling, lead creator of the learn about, which was once printed in science magazine Nature.
“What’s actually informative is that the T-cells detected in those people, the place the virus failed to determine a a success an infection, preferentially goal other areas of the virus to these observed after an infection.”
Present vaccines, which offer top coverage in opposition to critical illness however don’t totally prevent transmission or re-infection, goal the spike protein of the coronavirus.
By contrast, the T-cell responses that resulted in abortive infections within the UCL learn about recognised and focused as a substitute “replication proteins”.
The researchers stated that whilst such T-cells have been related to coverage from detectable an infection, they weren’t essentially enough for cover on my own, and the learn about didn’t have a look at whether or not other folks had coverage on re-exposure.
They added that the replication proteins are a number of the least modified via mutations to coronaviruses, and publicity to different coronaviruses is also one reason one of the well being staff have been ready to mount such fast T mobile responses.
It additionally implies that a vaccine which focused those proteins along with the spike protein must paintings in opposition to a wide vary of coronaviruses together with the lately dominant Delta variant, the researchers stated.
“It is a sturdy rationale for together with those proteins to complement spike in next-generation vaccines,” Swadling advised journalists.

As we previously reported, Spider-man: Homecoming screenplay writers John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein were in talks with Warner Bros. to direct the Flash solo movie, Flashpoint.
The report was clear to state that the studio did not comment on the news, so there were no official confirmation if it was true that Francis Daley and Goldstein, who’ve previously directed Vacation and the upcoming movie Game Night, starring Jason Bateman were officially in talks, until now.
As John Francis Daley went on to his official Twitter account and shared the Variety article that announced they were in talks, with two thumbs up, clearly confirming that he and Jonathan Goldstein are involved with Flashpoint.
Flashpoint will star Ezra Miller as Barry Allen, no release date has been officially confirmed for the movie.

Closing in on two centuries ago, men who wanted sovereignty over their own land and interests crossed the Atlantic, and a good portion of North America, to settle in Wisconsin. With the rudimentary tools of the time, they first erected homes, later on places of gathering, worship, learning and business. Most of you already know this story.
I mention it because, as I investigate this week’s destination, I think of a proud immigrant and his family, living in a log cabin constructed by his own hands. I bet he never dreamt that one day a group of people would rebuild it in a living museum. What was once his home is now an exhibit where men, women and children can see it for a fee, trying to imagine his way of life.
When I started blogging, I was oblivious to the many interesting places that exist in my home state of Wisconsin. Sometimes, I marvel to think such a location endures. Other times, I wonder why I have never heard of the destination before my research, as I have found spots with priceless info and history. This week I uncovered a figurative silver dollar practically right next door.
I’m sure the people of Manitowoc County have heard of Pinecrest Historical Village before, but I live about a half hour to the north. I had never knew of its existence, and its a shame. I must admit, I do appreciate the aesthetics of a Stylish older building. Yet, I prefer a practical shelter with a great backstory; you know, that lore that has been passed down for generations. In Pinecrest, there are a healthy variety of buildings that served people of the past.
I’m starting out on I-43, heading south from my hometown of Green Bay on a gorgeous Thursday afternoon. As I relish one of the last days of May, I discover a Manitowoc exit, the Hwy 10 and County Rd JJ exit. I use the ramp and follow the green landscape of JJ west for three miles, as I adhere to the road signs that lead me to the Pinecrest Historical Village.
When I pull into the winding gravel drive that turns into a small parking lot, I find a modest white reception building. I’m a little doubtful that what I’ve read about this place will actually prove true. I stroll through the door of this headquarters, which also houses a timeline museum, and am greeted by a woman who gives me a rundown of the park.
She also hands me a digital device with a touchscreen. I look at her curiously and she explains that it is an audio tour. I simply choose the building I’m investigating and a character will give me a ton of info.
Before I begin my tour, she also explains. “All of the buildings found here were taken from their original locations in Manitowoc County. There are no replicas. The furniture inside the buildings is period correct. These are all genuine local structures.” I’m psyched because I love original old buildings.
I pay my ten dollars, thank her for the info and head out the backdoor, arriving on a graveled path curving through rolling Wisconsin terrain. I’m delighted to find some rather small ordinary wood buildings set among the handsome scenery. First up, is a doctors office complete with a surgical table and dentist’s chair. I learn anaesthetic was rarely used because it was hard to regulate. Yikes!
There’s a bunch more. After perusing a print shop, I wander a Pioneer log cabin, Scandinavian house and a German home along with its smoke house. Smoked meat is old world living at its finest! Of course, like any museum of this type, there is a church and school house. These I love, as the school house even has the housing for the school bell.
Along with the standard Museum pieces, or at least the ones I’ve found at other Wisconsin living museums, this one holds places of gossip, business and social gatherings I haven’t seen anywhere else. There’s a dance pavilion, train depot(with a locomotive, flat car and caboose sitting outside), saloon, poll station, dress makers shop, bank, meat market and carpenters shop. And probably more, but these stand out in my mind.
There’s also the standard buildings like a blacksmith shop and general store. Some others that may be of interest, as I have seen similar establishments in other living museums but prefer Pinecrest’s, are the cheese factory, fire station and print shop.
The audio tour is really helpful. I guess I prefer actual people dressed in period attire. Yet, sometimes these volunteers are a bit hazy as to the actual history of the building, of course, you will also find those that are totally into it. The audio tour is consistent and gives reference to the history of the building. Not only that, it tells how these buildings fit into daily life and the community. It also gives great historical info on the functionality of some of the items inside these structures.
What I love about such a place, animated with good humored tour guides, is that a precursory lifestyle unfolds before my eyes. I can sense the sweat of the men in the blacksmith shop, the pleasant social gathering a church service allowed, the nerves of a passenger about to make a journey by train,the male bonding taking place at the saloon or the jubilant courting abounding at the dance pavilion.
There’s bits from the audio tour I find humorous and quite factual also. For instance, at the bank, the man playing the banker is trying to convince me that I can rest easy with my money in his safe, though he seems scared senseless of bank robbers.
There are also three buildings under construction. The poll station, livery stable and stage coach house all are available for audio tour, however, all I can do is view the building from the outside. I should also mention that the blacksmith shop does have actual blacksmiths every Thursday. You can check them out as they forge Iron into fun creations. It happens to be Thursday today and I ask a few questions.
When I finish the tour, as I wind it up with a stroll through the train depot and an investigation of the caboose, I’m left satisfied with the visions brought to my head. Ordinary people, possibly some of my ansecstors, used some of these buildings daily. As a matter of fact, some were the central places for the communities they resided in.
There are scheduled days when a tram is used in the park. You’d have to check the website for that however. There also are fun events all summer long too. There was a civil war enactment this past weekend, with a price tag the same as normal admission to the museum.
I’ve been to three Living Museums centered around pioneer and homestead era life. This is my favorite. The variety of buildings is surprising. I mean, basically think of a building that existed during that time and you’ll find it at Pinecrest. They may not be the biggest or most ornate, but they tell of a local history that was vibrant and, at times, difficult. I do encourage you to see it.
2 responses to “Why I Think Pinecrest Historical Village is Awesome”
Looks like a very interesting place! We are actually headed to your great state in the next couple of weeks. It will be my first time in Wisconsin and I’m looking forward to it. It’s too bad we’ll only be there a short time and won’t get to experience a whole lot, but we’ll make the most of it. Safe travels to you!

12th Street Theater Case
Local theater owner Victoria Frankle was murdered on Thursday April 4, 2002 at a theater in downtown Edston. In an attempt to cover their tracks and finish the job, the killer set fire to the theater. Original suspects include:
Malcolm Frankle (The Husband)
Maggie Cooper (The Best Friend)
Angela Witherson (The Actress)
Franklin Rooks (The Local Business Owner)
Donnie Dylan (The Stagehand)
All 5 of these original suspects cooperated fully with investigators and provided statements and fingerprints. However, given the lack of physical evidence recovered from the fire, the case went cold and was never solved. Two years later, local business owner Franklin Rooks attempted to purchase the property where the theater was located only to determine the property was not in the name of Malcolm or Victoria Frankle. The name on the deed was listed as one Caleb Towers. Police work determined that Caleb was the previously unknown son of Victoria from a previous marriage who was never questioned in the original investigation. After finding this information, detectives Irvine and Trapper went to speak to Caleb and found out that he has struggled tremendously over the last two years knowing his mom’s murder was unsolved. He was able to provide insight into his mother’s case and a piece of potential evidence. After getting new information and seeing what this unsolved murder has done to the family left behind the detectives enlisted help from the Cold Case Crackers to finally bring justice to the killer and closure to the family left behind.

On Saturday at a town hall in Keene, New Hampshire, Rep. Annie Kuster* pulled a question out of a fishbowl and began to read it aloud to Pete Buttigieg. “Alright, Pete, a classic New Hampshire question,” she said, adding that it was “important to all of us even if Washington have stopped paying attention.”
The attendee wanted to know Buttigieg’s thoughts on “the deficit.”
“I think the time has come for my party to get a lot more comfortable talking about the deficit,” Buttigieg said. “Because right now we got a president who comes from a party that used to talk a lot about fiscal responsibility, with a trillion-dollar deficit, and no plan in sight for what to do about it.”
“And yes,” he continued, “this should concern progressives, who are not in the habit of talking or worrying too much about the debt.” Buttigieg argued that the growing deficit would “start crowding out investment in safety net and health and infrastructure and education programs,” make it harder to fund economic stimulus programs should the economy demand it, and—in a talking point that might sound familiar to people who remember what life was like in 2011—hurt young people who “might be here when some of these fiscal time bombs start to go off.”
It was a little surprising—in my time on the campaign trail this year, I really haven’t heard a lot about the deficit, an object of Republican fixation during the Obama presidency that was used as justification for several debt-ceiling showdowns but which seems to have largely faded from view during the Trump administration. Maybe Buttigieg was speaking off the cuff and we shouldn’t read too much into it. But then, again, at a town hall on Sunday in Nashua, Buttigieg very conveniently received almost the exact same question out of the fishbowl.
“How important is the deficit to you?”
Buttigieg’s eyes lit up as he answered. “Important—that’s the short answer,” he said. “And I think the time has come for my party to get a lot more comfortable owning this issue. Because we’ve seen what’s happened with this president—a trillion dollar deficit, and his allies in Congress do not care. So we’ve got to do something about it!”
“It’s not fashionable in progressive circles, I think, to talk too much about the debt,” he acknowledged. But Buttigieg was there to offer some hard truths.
The idea that progressives don’t really care about this issue is an odd one, considering just how much of an emphasis the Obama administration placed on reducing the deficit (Obamacare reduced it!), and how much time it spent trying to broker a “grand bargain” to reform Social Security and Medicare. Democrats spent much of those eight years talking a lot about deficits, in part because Republicans spent much of that time pretending that Democrats weren’t. Then- and current-speaker Nancy Pelosi implemented pay-as-you-go rules mandating that bills in the House be paid for, and Pelosi has already signaled that PAYGO will be back in a Democratic administration. For the last few decades, Democrats have been the fiscal hawks.
But New Hampshire’s open primary does allow for a surge of moderate and conservative independents on Election Day, and Buttigieg—who nods to the prevalence of “future former Republicans” at his rally—perhaps thinks he stands to benefit from a little bit of lefty-bashing, real or imagined.
*Correction: This story originally misstated Rep. Annie Kuster’s current job title.

Paul Pogba has made it clear that he wants to play every minute of Manchester United’s hectic schedule over the Christmas period.
The Frenchman missed 12 games with a hamstring injury and returned to action with a superb display against Newcastle United earlier this month.
He has started every game since returning and played a full 90 minutes against both Brighton and Hove Albion and Watford.
And Pogba, speaking ahead of Saturday’s clash with Arsenal, expressed his desire to play in every game over a crucial December month.
“Obviously it is tiring to play all of the those games, but that’s what you want,” he said.
“That’s what you play football for. You sacrifice, but you enjoy it, so you go through it and you just want to recover to play those games.”
Man United’s trip to the Emirates will be the first of ten games played over a 31 day period – an average of a game every three days.
And while Pogba’s enthusiasm to play in every one ought to be admired, no sane manager would want to expose his star player to such a gargantuan workload, especially so soon after coming back from two months on the sidelines.
Every player has physical idiosyncrasies and Pogba’s hamstring appears to be one. He was forced off against FC Rostov last season after playing too many games and it reared its ugly head against FC Basel in September as well.
And the Frenchman is simply too important to Mourinho’s plans to suffer another injury set-back as the business end of the campaign approaches.

Dr. Clare Rigg
Do ethnic minority entrepreneurs (EMEs) seeking to start up a business in Ireland operate on a level playing field with their EU counterparts? Or are there unique barriers that EMEs face and if so, what are they and how do we tackle them?
This dissertation examines all of these questions and reveals whether racism or red tape, lack of finance or language skills is suffocating ethnic entrepreneurship more.
It explores the very latest research papers, and reports and combines both qualitative and quantitative data, with a series of semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire aimed squarely at entrepreneurs.
The dissertation discovers that EMEs do indeed face a number of unique barriers that prevent, impede and often stop them from starting up in business and the report concludes by making several recommendations on policy issues that will harness the power of EMEs for the benefit of the Irish economy.

Climate rights were formalized at the Earth Summit in 1992, from which emerged the United Nations’ Framework Convention on Climate Change. Subsequently, civil society has shown its interest in facing the challenges of global warming. Thus are born coalitions of organisations to promote climate justice — particularly through litigation.
According to Markell and Ruhl, climate change litigation can be defined as follows: “any piece of federal, state, tribal, or local administrative or judicial litigation in which the party filings or tribunal decisions directly and expressly raise an issue of fact or law regarding the substance or policy of climate change causes and impacts.” In all cases, the litigation can concern two types of actors: states and firms, anywhere in the world.
And there have been a lot of victories in recent years. Such as Urgenda Foundation v. Kingdom of the Netherlands (La Haye District Ct, 24th June of 2015); and Ashgar Leghari v. Federation of Pakistan (Hte C. Lahore, 4th September of 2015), which denounced the inaction of the state; or Colombia, South Africa and Australia concerning harmful climate projects (the first of which led to obligations being placed upon the Colombian government by the Supreme Court on 5 April 2018 to stop deforestation).
The best success was the Urgenda case, which in 2018 created an obligation of vigilance in matters of climate. In fact, this contentious appeal went to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), which affirmed the previous judgment, stating that the Dutch state had not done enough to fight against global warming, and must act now with determination and efficiency. In particular, it corroborated that the Netherlands should indeed aim to target a 25% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2020 to meet its obligations to the Dutch people and the world.
So, in the absence of international binding agreements and jurisdictions, environmental law is now constituted primarily by the litigation that is developing before national courts. Thus, with the “l’Affaire du siècle” case, launched by four NGOs (Oxfam, Greenpeace, Nicolas Hulot Foundation and Notre affaire à tous) before the Administrative Tribunal of Paris at the beginning of 2019, France joins other states in the line of legal fire.
Nonetheless, this type of action isn’t new in the country, insofar as there have already been previous cases before the French courts: the operating licence “Guyane Maritime,” allowed by the administrative court of Cergy-Pontoise, to extract oil in Guyana and, conversely, the appeal for misuse of authority that was launched by the Grande-Synthe municipality. These types of actions occurred thanks to the environmental accreditation given to associations in 1976 by the French authorities, which enabled them to pursue regular litigation.
Two of the four NGOs involved in the “l’Affaire du siècle” case have this accreditation, namely Greenpeace and the Nicolat Hulot Foundation. But aside from Greenpeace, none of the other NGO plaintiffs have experience in environmental litigation. For that reason, “Notre affaire à tous,” a collective of lawyers, was created (two months after the Urgenda case) to launch an appeal against the French state. The goal of that group is the following: to reveal that France won’t achieve the objectives that it has set (knowing that those objectives are already insufficient); and to obtain compensation for the damage that is simultaneously moral, ecological and material. In this way, the four NGOs have mobilized the necessary legal tool to ensure cooperation of the French government in fighting climate change.
Initially, the plaintiffs dropped an earlier compensatory request that had been directed to the prime minister on the 17th of December 2018. Once the verdict was given, (i.e., the government’s negative response), the NGO plaintiffs then dropped their appeal on the 14th of March 2019.
C. Cournil, a member of Notre affaire à tous, explained that the summary request contains four parts:
Scientific. That is, concerning obligations related to climate change, deficiency of the State, and a request accompanied by the demand for compensation. This can be analyzed by two axes — global and national. Thus, in the effort to achieve their desired result, the NGOs argued in defense of environmental constitutional rights as well as fundamental rights, underlining the government’s inertia and the belated nature of its actions. They also cited scientific proof by way of the last IPCC Assessment Report. So, if the French state is not the only party responsible for environmental damages, the aim is to recognize its failure and then fault by demonstrating that it hasn’t met its obligations.
Definitely, there are French antecedents in environmental matters where failure leading to fault was recognized: on the green algae problem, the AZF factory explosion at Toulouse, the lack of prevention of harm from asbestos (when scientific facts had already demonstrated the risk), and the failure to apply the obligation concerning bears in the Pyrenees. Indeed, once eligibility requirements were fulfilled — i.e., a negative administrative decision, by an explicit response, and an interest to act (physical persons can defend a collective interest, such as the environment) — the appeal was launched. Therefore, there are arguments to be made in national law, international law, and comparative law. However, some French national lawyers have expressed reservations concerning the responsibility of the state. Admitting the failure of the state is more difficult in this case than in the previous cases. As a matter of fact, responsibility is the result of three elements that cannot be separated: a fault, a causal link, and a prejudice.
Concerning the failure that produces a fault, the NGOs identified the legal obligations of the French state in the Environmental Charter of 2004 as a general basis to act in environmental matters that will also be in accordance with several international agreements and European norms. So, if there isn’t French jurisprudencia in this field, these other juridic sources (national, international and European) — through decisions that define objectives for each state — can explain the obligations for France. However, NGOs must prove that they entail a performance requirement, and not only a directive.
- The causal link is a bit more complicated. Some jurists take into consideration the fact that the fault belongs to several states and not only the French state, which explains why the Dutch courts have recognized a duty of diligence of the state in order to make a link between fault and prejudice. More generally, the causal link does not have the same significance for scientists and lawyers. Although the last IPCC Assessment Report identifies correlations, the information it provides cannot constitute a causal link from the lawyers point of view. In this sense, C. Cournil said that “The scientific proof isn’t the legal proof,” which means that law supplants legal arguments in the appeals.
And finally, the prejudice that has to respect three criteria: be certain, direct and fixed. This is the most important sticking point. If there is no problem concerning the moral prejudice, it’s more difficult to prove its ecological and material dimensions. For the ecological aspect, which is recognized in civil right, it seems hard to demonstrate the damages suffered by nature independently of human damages. So, we expect the administrative judge to copy the civil right in recognizing the existence of an ecological prejudice. Secondly, for the material aspect, in relation to the criteria of evaluation of the damages — it appears very difficult to assess them exactly.
So, if the three elements that could make the French state responsible for climate inaction are flawed, it seems it will be difficult to obtain either compensation or an injunction of the state by the administrative judge.
Moreover, by saying “attack the state” or “sue the state,” the petition of “L’affaire du siècle” produces confusion between penal and administrative trials. Indeed, the trial will be administrative. And, above all, we can’t sue the state before any court, since the French state is considered an entity that cannot be condemned. So, there is a misunderstanding, because a lot of people who signed the petition expected they were questioning the personal responsibility of members of the current or former governments. This is a trial not of a person, but of an act: a unilateral administrative act.
In the same way, we can wonder, since obligations are mainly fixed by the European Union, whether the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) should make objectives less ambitious and not allow state’s members to choose the means by which to reach them. So, pushing forward the right in an aim to struggle efficiently against climate change demands that we act first at the level of the EU. The French state has a responsibility to transpose EU directives and the enforcement of regulations, but the respect of European law does not depend only upon the state.
To conclude, the real question is: does the law really have a place in environmental politics? Contrary to the Netherlands, the French judge reserves the right to refuse to play this game, both because of its complexity and because of the real separation between the judicial system and politics — even if the petition has been signed by over two million people. According to the French Doctor of Public Law J.Bétaille, in a legal conference concerning “L’affaire du siècle” at Toulouse, the large media coverage of all those signatures may even be counterproductive: “the judge isn’t a technicien, nor a climatologist … or a decision-maker (…) solutions should be provided more by politic than the law”.
So, the objection of lawyers is not to the substance but to the strategy. This is a legal as well as a political action. Therefore, the French judge has prior reasons for refusing the appeal — because of French tradition that is hostile to the involvement of politics in legal matters. In this way, some lawyers fear a negative decision of the Court, since it could establish a bad precedent for all future appeals.
A better strategy, according to J.Bétaille, would be to begin with simple cases, as the French NGO France Nature Environnement did by initiating litigation with little cases before the administrative Court — and after that, with an appeal before the Council of State.
This conclusion is not pessimistic but realistic. Whereas trial courts and appellate courts are open-minded, the Council of State is still reluctant to enter the discussion. So, underlying all limits and misunderstandings of this affair enables to reinforce its credibility and future efficiency. Thus, after reading that article, you will be able to reconsider positively the supplementary facts that will be finished by the end of April — while remaining aware of legal considerations specific to France.

In Pennsylvania’s Hill District in 1904, authorities have falsely accused an African-American millworker of stealing a bucket of nails. Rather than serve time for a crime he didn’t commit, the man jumps into the river, becoming a martyr for the cause of justice. Riots and strikes break out across the city, and a man named Citizen Barlow finds himself at the home of a 285-year-old healer named Aunt Ester. The keeper of tradition and history for her people, Aunt Ester sends Citizen aboard the slave ship Gem of the Ocean to go in search of the truth about himself and his ancestors.
When August Wilson’s Gem of the Ocean opened in New York in 2004, the New York Times called it “a touchstone for everything else [Wilson] has written.” Directed by James O’Neil, this mystical drama delves into the thematic territory of remembrance and forgiveness. As Aunt Ester, Tony Award–winner Lillias White leads a cast of seven who embody their characters with more skill and dedication than an alien posing as the president.
In its 14th season, Rubicon upholds its dedication to producing provocative theater that celebrates the human spirit. The ensemble has embodied this mission through a diverse collection of shows populated with redemptive characters, from world premieres such as the folk-musical revue Lonesome Traveler, to time-tested classics including Steel Magnolias, and a developmental production of The Tempest, in which Prospero beatboxes all of his shipwrecking spells. Customers should be advised, this production contains strong language and mature content.

TULSA (AP) — A Tulsa man charged with child neglect after police found his 22-month-old daughter locked in a metal dog cage is due in district court.
The father is scheduled to appear early Thursday at a hearing where prosecutors are asking a judge to revoke his 2-year suspended sentence on drug charges.
The Associated Press is not naming the father to protect the identity of the toddler.
The father was sentenced in August 2012 — about three months before police found the girl locked in the crate and another child wandering around naked outside.
Court records allege the father admitted to taking a cocktail of powerful narcotics, muscle relaxers and drinking beer on the day the children were found.
He has pleaded not guilty to the felony child neglect charge.

Thoroughbred racing’s first uniform, nationwide anti-doping program officially launched March 27.
That day, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) gave its final approval of the Anti-Doping and Medication Control (ADMC) Program through the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA). The program will be implemented and enforced by the Horseracing Integrity & Welfare Unit of Drug Free Sport International.
Under the ADMC Program, racing will have centralized testing driven by an investigative unit and will institute harmonization among laboratories so they are testing for the same substances at the same concentrations, wrote Lisa Lazarus, CEO of HISA, in a March 14 HISA newsletter.
The ADMC rules explicitly divides substances on the Prohibited List into two categories: controlled medications, or therapeutic substances that are permitted outside of race day and other specific periods, and banned substances that should never be allowed in a horse.
One area that HISA further clarified was intra-articular injections, which are prohibited on race day, within 14 days prior to post time, and within seven days prior to any timed and reported workout. The prohibition applies to substances injected into any articular space, including orthobiologics, such as interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein or stem cell therapy; corticosteroids; antimicrobials; and anesthetics, such as mepivacaine, lidocaine, and bupivacaine.
Also included in the rules package are the Equine Anti-Doping and Controlled Medication Protocol, the Prohibited List, definitions, arbitration procedures, equine testing and investigation standards, and equine standards for laboratories.
The omnibus spending bill for federal fiscal year 2021 included the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act, which created the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority and authorized HISA to implement uniform national rules in Thoroughbred horse racing, with oversight by the FTC.
HISA’s draft ADMC rules were initially rejected by the FTC in late 2022 because of ongoing legal uncertainties arising from a decision in November 2022 by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The court declared the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act unconstitutional because the judges held that the authority was not subordinate to a federal agency.
In the spending bill for FY 2023, clarifying language was added to provide more authority for the FTC to “abrogate, add to, and modify the rules of the Authority.” HISA then resubmitted the ADMC rules for consideration by the FTC.
“At this time, there are no legal challenges on the horizon that we anticipate could impede the ADMC Program, and it is important that everyone is prepared for March 27 and has a full understanding of the new rules and how the ADMC Program will work,” Lazarus wrote in the HISA newsletter.
That said, Louisiana attorney general Jeff Landry, who brought the previous suit against HISA in the U.S. District Court in the Western District of Louisiana, vowed to continue fighting against implementation.
Covered persons and horses
In addition to the launch of the ADMC Program, HISA also planned to begin requiring compliance with all of its existing regulations on racetrack safety and registration on March 27, according to the March 14 HISA newsletter. Covered people and horses not in compliance with the rules, which took effect on July 1, 2022, will be unable to race until they comply.
To be in compliance, covered people must make sure they and their covered horses are registered in the HISA Portal and that they have paid any overdue fines.
As of March 17, more than 70,000 Thoroughbred racing participants and administrators have now registered with HISA: 30,061 covered people and 41,953 covered horses.
