ATTENTION LEGAL COMMUNITY AND TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.
Community legal clinic in downtown booked an appointment for me on Wednesday April 26 of 2023. I need a lawyer to look at this issue earlier than that I would appreciate if another law office could talk to me earlier, other than the community legal clinic. These community legal clinics are funded by the Govt. money so perhaps their focus would be (or may be) to make the outcome of the complaint favourable to the Govt. instead of the client or complainant or victim of a Govt. agency’s wrong doing.
I will never accept any paperwork just by the name without proper ID numbers printed on the papers because any paper work without any ID numbers will be fraudulent obtained by showing some one else by a name and passing the paper work onto some one else by the same name. A serious law enforcement fraud if no ID numbers mentioned on the paper work. In some countries they use person’s picture on the paper work to make sure it gets to the right person without ambiguity, and to identify the person positively. It all depends on the honesty of the system and and people who enforce the system without corruption.
After the phone interview with OW intake worker in Ottawa for file transfer I received an email, I quickly rushed to the 370 Catherine’s St. location of OW, submitted the two bank statements by email for the past 30 days, while I was sitting in the waiting area upstairs. After completing it I called the intake worker on the internal phone. Intake worker came out to the counter, asked me to go in one of the meeting rooms and asked me to close the door. She asked me to sign paper work which had no linkage to me either by the file number or the Social Insurance Number , so I decided to write the numbers in my own handwriting, but the intake worker objected to it and stopped me from writing my file numbers on it. Although I showed my two pieces of IDs, but it was reported as no IDs. I find this very unprofessional behaviour of the OW intake worker. I would rather deal with some one from the past i.e. from before 2011 case workers/managers/supervisors.
Also contacted MP and MPP of Ottawa South (before and after East weekend 2023) about this matter of OW social assistance, file transfer, Monet etc. and also the community legal clinic of Ottawa South, where a meeting a with a lawyer was book on Thursday April 13 of 2023, I requested a legal clinic to let me call on their phone in the office, because my mobile phone may not be reliable (is not reliable) for important conversation.
According to lawyer Charles Ng there was nothing to fix in the file, my rent money was not issued because I am in a shelter. He was not able to answer why I was in the shelter. He was not able to explain how to rent a place when I have no rent money in my possession. He was kind of suggesting to move in and pay later, how was that possible somebody or the lawyer Charles Ng should explain to me. Or provide me a ticket back home immediately, because shelter is causing fatigue and sleep deprivation, impacting my health. I did not live in shelters before immigration to Canada, so should I live in shelter in Canada, I should be provided a family home. Lawyer Charles Ng has to submit his recommendations and actions for me in the form of a official written document.
Before starting the meeting on the phone Lawyer Charles Ng did not establish clearly who he was talking to, or whose file he was referring to, because did not ask for any Social Insurance number, neither OW file numbers. So, Is there only one OW file, are there no other people on OW social assistance besides me. If identifying properly was not necessary. Because if there were many people on OW social assistance than it will be logical to determine and link the person and the file to make correct reccommendations.
This is what victimizing the victims means, as follows:
When a victim complains about a fraud or a crimes, they should look at it from crimes point of view to make it better for the victim. Instead, they (group of people responsible for resolving such complaints, heavily funded from somewhere) have a tendency to start looking into why the aggressor committed a crime on the person or what the victim did for that to happen, because of the vulnerable situation of the victim, even though if it was clear that aggressors committed a crime, no one cares about the aggressor’s crime. In other words they just try to find a reason to justify the crime of a criminal and not do anything to stop or punish the criminals and aggressors because of their social position, connections with the higher ups or police etc. This is what victimizing the victims means.
People who evicted me without a legal reason probably were connected with higher ups, police or law enforcement, and no one is talking about the evictions issue. So legal system and authorities are not neutral and honest. One of the many interpretations of evictions I can make was, that it was to make OW social assistance to stop my rent money, because of which I am in shelter. Lawyer was not able clearly explain how to get back to my rental status.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cdo9dyHL0EC88g_JYodF51P7Jf_QSDzZ/view?usp=drivesdk. handwritten note from Brampton which was used to evict me from my rental place 10 Conover Crt. Brampton Ontario L6Y3J5 on Family Day weekend 2023.
Lawyer was trying to justify that because I am in shelter that’s why my rent was stopped. Instead of investigating why I was in shelter, why I was not housed properly in Ottawa as a Citizen of this country, and at my professional level according to my immigration documents. If evictions were acceptable by the authorities why a plane ticket was not issued to enable me to go back to the country where I came from in 1993 legally, I did not change my status to legal after arriving illegally.
They just try to investigate the victim side or the complainant instead of the crime side of the complaint. Which makes it harder for the victims and discourages from reporting such crimes and no one wants to get involve with police. It is easy for them to investigate the victim or complainant, hurdle free, pressure free. Those who commit crime can be dangerous for them.
Shelter (in Ottawa) staff’s behavior disguised under the cover of Shelter Rules:
People who use a bed at the shelter are not allowed to used community time slot for meals at the mission shelter in Ottawa. I was denied when I asked the staff (the same woman who did not know how much time to eat after getting the food from the kitchen in the dinning area.) to eat early dinner with the community slot. On April 15 of 2023 around 15h10
(Half hour to get the meal and eat the meal when there are long line ups, is not sufficient time for the whole shelter resident population and additional people, may be sufficient time for small number of people. Research organizations should study this shelter how the meals are served and how much time they allow people to eat). This can cause serious health issues to eat dinner in such a short time every day, rarely eating in few minutes may not have impact but eating every for longer period of time can have serious health issues. On April 16 of 2023 line was very long usually line things or end 10-15 minutes before 17h00 that is when I get in the line to take my dinner. Today on 04/16/2023 line was longer and people were coming in until 16h55. I asked the staff again how much time do we get to eat after getting the meal from the kitchen the person said half hour, what does it mean, half hour is the time slot 04h30 to 5h00 for dinner, so if some goes in at the dinning area around 04h30 can eat at normal pace until 05h00 but if some one gets a chance to get the food around 04h55 due to the rush and being last in the line up, staff starts pressuring people by announcing the time constantly after 05h00 which is not acceptable behaviour of the staff. They should clearly specify how much time is allocated after getting the food. If Five O clock limit can not be changed (i.e. if was carved in the stone) than they should have a limit on last person going in the dinning hall as 15 minutes before the end of the clock to allow people to eat dinner comfortably, are they in a competition who can eat fast ?? are they training for fast eating. Shelter auditors should look into this issue immediately. In my opinion 30 minutes limit should be imposed at the door where enter into the dinning area, but 30 minutes limit should not be imposed on the people eating ing the dinning area. So if some one enters the dinning area at 05h00 can still get half hour inside the dinning area to eat at normal pace, so they should not yell inside for the clock, clock should be imposed at the entry point to let them in for full half hour and stop after that.
I noticed that there were two lines at the dinner time while I was waiting in the lobby of the shelter near staff windows and water fountain. One group of people presumably entered the dinning area through the back door of hospice entrance through Daly St. After they got their trays, doors in the lobby were opened to let the people into the dinning area about five minutes later. I need to find out if I can also enter through the Daly St. entrance for the dinner.
I asked the staff at the bed check-in that how do they do the bed check at night, by the first name or the last, he said depends, was not sure and did not explain. I said if they do the bed check by the first name than person by the last will be marked absent or missing and if they do the bed check by the last name than person by the first name will be marked as missing. He said we just a person in the bed to do the bed check, very vague answer, not sure what was the purpose of the bed check. Since I noticed them say first name in the dinning area and last name in the office for bed check-in assignment, I asked them do they consider two people in one bed, one person by the first name and the second person by the last name. He said no only one person per bed.
Bed check-in/assignment is done between 4 and 6 pm daily. I go through this check-in before or after dinner time which is 04h30 to 05h00. Once I checked-in after six pm which resulted in booking me out and I was assigned a spot in the chapel for the night. Next check-in was not at 4 to 6 rather it was at seven pm by putting my name on the list and a different bunk bed was assigned to me on the floor 2 (255 before it was 319).
The following happened to me twice at the shelter.
It happened on April 23 of 2023 and few days earlier that when I go up to my bed, some one else was seen sleeping in my bunk bed. On 04/23/2023, it was hard to see in dark rooms with lights off, so I used my phone flash light to see, that there was some one sleeping in my bed. I went back downstairs and asked the staff if there was any change in my bed assignment. The person at the window checked the system and told me no there was no change in bed assignment. He asked the details, he told me to wait around, after about 10 minutes he located me in the crowd down stairs in the lobby, handed me a set of blanket and bed sheets and told me to remove the previous blanket and bed sheets (so my bed was cleared for my use). I wonder how can other people use a bed which was assigned to some one else, not once but twice on bunk bed 255.
One white T shirt which did not belong to me was seen on my bunk bed among the linen and pillow case etc. I removed it and dropped it outside room in the corridor.
Effective April 28 of 2023 bed check-in/assignment staff changed the lists to a short list which was by the first names instead of last names (which was the right thing to do, I asked them several times before why they were maintaining the lists by the last names because the bed check-in/assignment staff was looking at people by the revers name because the lists were by the last names). This list was much shorter just one page and did not have too many black cross out dashes in front of the bunk bed numbers. As was noticed on 04/28/2023 around 17h15. This was only for one day, next day after that on April 29 of 2023 Shelter bed assignment check-in Staff started using the old method of last name listings. However upon asking I learned that when they want to go upstairs they use listings by the first name. Not sure what that means.
Something to think about.
This is victimizing the victims.
