Other blogs are ok but not mine!!!!! I wonder why????...lol
Mr. Charles LeBlanc
Dear Mr. LeBlanc:
Further to your recent complaint, we have determined that there is in
fact a provincial government policy on internet use by government
employees. The relevant provisions of that policy are as follows:
"Unacceptable Use of Government E-mail
The following are considered unacceptable use of the Government e-mail
systems:
Distribution of chain letters
Frequent announcements of non-governmental social or sporting
events
Private business activities
Political lobbying activities
Distribution of information generally considered to be offensive or inappropriate, including racist material, hate literature,
sexist slurs or pornography
Transmission of unsolicited commercial information (e.g. junk mail, advertising)
Distribution of personal views and opinions as if they constitute official commentary from Government of New Brunswick, its departments or agencies
Activities that intentionally cause congestion and disruption
of networks and systems
Frequent distribution of information that is personal in nature."
As your "blog" is not part of government business and is not a function of government, it is in our view, legitimate for government to control
its access by government employees on government equipment.
The application of the policy seems to vary between departments. Some
have adopted more stringent rules (for example, no access to e-bay on
government systems) while others allow more flexibility expecting
employees to use office internet and e-mail systems for government business,
with few exceptions.
It is therefore our conclusion that government would be acting within
its policy in limiting distribution of your "blog" and access to it by
government employees on government equipment during work hours.
Removing photos, doctored or otherwise, would also be a reasonable extension
of that policy. Of course, government employees could still access your
"blog" if they wish to, on their own computers and personal e-mail
accounts outside of work hours.
In summary, we cannot conclude that this is an issue of maladministration and must, as a consequence, advise you that your complaint file is being closed.
Yours truly,
Bernard Richard

Sorry, I have to agree with Mr. Richard here as well. If I run a business or organisation and provide my employees with a tool such as the internet, I'd rather they use it for work-related purposes and not spend their time wasting manhours (and bandwidth) joyriding the net or wading through tons of non-work-related e-mails.
And Mr. Richard made the best point by saying that those people affected by this block are still free to view your unmodified entries on their own time, own machines, and own dime.
Mr.Richard made a good point and I too believe it to be more than fair and just.
On the other hand maybe Charles should write a letter asking if someone can go to bat for him to help him get a Job because of his ADHD.
Because as we all now know Mr.Lord will indeed intervene and put Charlie's letter in his desk for the next 17 months of his term just in case he needs to use it against him or the Liberals for trying to help.
Oh Charlie if this does happen please be sure to advise Mr.Lord's next spokesperson to BLACK OUT YOUR NAME.
Convicted drunk-driver wanted to work at least and wanted to drive to and from work. Charlie Leblanc does not want to work. So it does not make sense. He cannot even stop smoking to use that money towards rent or food. He is a dead loss.
