GOD'S MINUTE!


BEFORE I FORMED YOU IN THE WOMB I KNEW YOU;
BEFORE YOU WERE BORN I SANCTIFIED YOU.
( JEREMIAH 1:4 *NKJV )

Dear Charles,
Now have you ever felt that God doesn't even know you,
or doesn't care what happens to you? Well, today we will
take a look at just how well God knows each and every one
of His Children, and how very important we all are to Him!

Now before we start it is important to remember that the
purpose of His intimate knowledge of us is to be Protective
and Helpful, not Judgmental and Condemning! Thus an
expression of His deep Love for each one of His Children!

Let us begin with the words of King David: "O LORD,
YOU HAVE SEARCHED ME AND KNOW ME. YOU
KNOW WHEN I SIT AND WHEN I RISE; YOU PERCEIVE
MY THOUGHTS FROM AFAR." ( PSALM 139:1-2 )

Now we may not want others to know us very well, but
God already knows everything about us. For; EVEN THE
VERY HAIRS OF YOUR HEAD ARE ALL NUMBERED.
( MATTHEW 10:30 )

YOU DISCERN MY GOING OUT AND MY LYING DOWN;
YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL MY WAYS."
( PSALM 139:3 ) For it is also written, "DOES HE NOT
SEE MY WAYS AND COUNT MY EVERY STEP?
( JOB 31:4 )

Also; "BEFORE A WORD IS ON MY TONGUE YOU
KNOW IT COMPLETELY, O LORD." ( PSALM 139:4 )
For; "NOTHING IN ALL CREATION IS HIDDEN FROM
GOD'S SIGHT. EVERYTHING IS UNCOVERED AND
LAID BARE BEFORE THE EYES OF HIM."
( HEBREWS 4:13 )

After all; YOU CREATED MY INMOST BEING; YOU
KNIT ME TOGETHER IN MY MOTHER'S WOMB."
( PSALM 139:13 ) "MY FRAME WAS NOT HIDDEN
FROM YOU WHEN I WAS MADE IN THE SECRET
PLACE. YOUR EYES SAW MY UNFORMED BODY.
ALL THE DAYS ORDAINED FOR ME WERE WRITTEN
IN YOUR BOOK BEFORE ONE OF THEM CAME TO BE.
( PSALM 139:15 & 16 )

Now you know how intimately God knows you, and you
may know Him intimately as well by reading His Letter To
You! ( The Bible ) So why not pick up and read the Bible
tonight?

Have a Wonderful Weekend Charles, and know that God
Loves You Dearly, for you are His Child and He even
smiles every time He thinks about You! Amen.

With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen

J.D. IRVING SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF!!!

CHARLES
irving3

Someone sent me this picture weeks ago but I was too busy with the bi-election.


From what I was told?

Minister_Irving

James Irving is going to celebrate the naming of the new double haul tanker in the West side of the City in a few weeks. This will be a private ceremony but all the Irving media will be there.

It’s bad enough that James Irving destroyed the Shipyard but now this????

What really got me upset is that this Billionaire supports Racism! They are going to name this new ship - THE ACADIAN!!!!!

I told him face to face that he had a racist supervisor working at Gulf Operators.

His name is Brian Grant and he goes around and tells his workers that no Niggers or Frogs should be allowed to work in the Irving Empire!

What did this Billionaire do about it?

mary

Nothing!!! If this was a lie? Would I write this story? Of course not! I am telling the truth and J.D. Irving knows it!

Hey? Lately, they have been coming to visit this site 2 to 3 times a day so I'm not affraid to speak the truth! Racism is very much alive in the Irving Empire with James Irving at the helm!

It’s a slap in the face to all the Acadians in New Brunswick to have our name on an Irving ship!!!! Please do not call this ship - THE ACADIAN!!! It's a slap in the face to the Acadian population!

Shame on J.D. Irving for doing this! Anyone who promotes racism must be put to a stop!!!

It’s bad enough that he gave the orders not to print my letters to the editor but now this????

NB Telegraph-Journal | Saint John

Mayor comes to defence of Rockwood Park
McFarlane sends letter to Maritimes and Northeast Pipelines asking that they select alternate route

By John Chilibeck
Telegraph-Journal

The mayor of Saint John has asked the company that wants to put a huge natural gas pipeline through Rockwood Park to consider another route.

Norm McFarlane sent a letter to Maritimes and Northeast Pipelines sometime over the last couple of days, following several weeks of controversy over the unpopular proposal.

"My preferred route for the natural gas pipeline is not through Rockwood Park," he says in the letter. "Ultimately final route decisions are with you and the National Energy Board of Canada and I urge you to consider alternative options available for this pipeline."

The public statement is the strongest the mayor has made so far to stop pipeline development in the large municipal park in the heart of Saint John.

The company says it will apply for the pipeline easement through the National Energy Board in Calgary. The board has the ultimate say on the matter because the pipeline would be international, running from the planned liquefied natural gas terminal on the city's east side all the way to the United States.

On Thursday, several people who attended a presentation at the New Brunswick Museum on the flora and fauna in the park peppered city officials with questions over how much damage would be created by blasting through the wilderness to bury a pipeline.

City manager Terry Totten tried to reassure the crowd that council had met with officials from Maritimes and Northeast and told them in no uncertain terms they didn't like the proposed route.

Many people at the meeting questioned if the city council couldn't do more to stop the company from creating a gash that would run alongside the existing hydro lines in Rockwood. Already, a newly formed group called The Friends of Rockwood Park has collected about 1,000 signatures from people against the development proposal.

The mayor said Friday he thinks the company should listen to the community.

"They can go wherever they want, they have that authority. I'm just saying please listen and look at alternative routes. The people of Saint John are saying they don't want it through the park."

Mr. McFarlane doesn't want to scare off the company, nor does he want to come across as anti-business. He has long championed the idea that Saint John should be an energy hub, and he also brokered the favourable tax concession for Irving Oil's LNG plant.

In his letter, he states that Saint John must maintain its balance between industry, the area's natural beauty and public green space. But he denies that he soft-pedalled his message about finding a different route.

"You don't just say, 'Don't do it there.' That won't get you anywhere. I believe in working with people. And maybe this will convince them."

Environmentalist David Thompson was pleased to hear the mayor had sent a letter, but he said it was only a first step.

Mr. Thompson says it's untrue the city is powerless to stop the pipeline if the company won't back down.

"There are things the city can do. We're asking them to refuse permission to go through the park, and not to sign any kind of option agreement on the land. If we refuse that, in essence the community will have refused to let the pipeline go through the park."

Unlike the mayor, Mr. Thompson sees little positive about a new pipeline and does not make a connection between the LNG plant and the jobs it will create, and the pipeline that will transport the natural gas.

"Maritimes and Northeast won't be opening up an office and creating any jobs. They're just coming here to transport the product from the community to the U.S.A. And they want to do that by going through the community's public park."

Mr. Thompson says the pipeline should be built across the Bay of Fundy from Red Head all the way to the west side. The ocean floor in this area is made up of fine silt, and is not biologically significant, he says.

"I don't take the ocean's environment lightly, after all I am the Fundy Baykeeper," Mr. Thompson says, referring to his work with the Conservation Council of New Brunswick. "But we're talking about a degraded seabed. Rockwood Park is made of bedrock and would involve a lot of blasting."

A few weeks ago, members of council met with officials from Maritimes and Northeast Pipelines, but so far the company has not held many consultations with members of the community. No detailed maps have been made public, nor has the exact route been described. But part of the plan would be for the underground pipeline to run out somewhere near Peacock's garden centre on the park's western boundary, then shoot down Churchill Boulevard, through Shamrock Park, across the St. John River and then on to Milford on the west side. It's a route many of the councillors think is ridiculous because it goes through so much parkland, rather than follow the throughway or snake across the ocean floor.

The company says it simply wants to follow the existing hydro coordinator, where a big swath has already been cut out. Presumably, it would be less expensive to widen the corridor a few extra meters by removing trees and rocks than building a pipeline on the ocean floor or digging up more public streets and highways.

As part of its application process, the company must consult with the public, write a report and submit it to the board. The board would then hold public hearings on the matter. Mr. Thompson says he doesn't want it to reach that stage because he describes the hearings as quasi-judicial and unfriendly toward lay people. He says company lawyers will probably question whether intervenors qualify as real experts.

Common Council will discuss the pipeline on its open agenda Monday night.

I'M GOING TO TRY SOMETHING NEW IN THIS BLOG????

Now…I’m adding something new in this blog and I hope this don’t bring out all the Religious fanatics in here.

Slide108

For the past year, I have been receiving an email that is call - God’s minute.

Well, we all know that I’m a strong believer there’s a reason for everything.

What’s the odds of me finding out that I have ADHD < 6 years ago > and I have no kids. < I thank God every day for this one > afterwards I land in the Capital and my best friend is the Priest whom I have known for 40 years!

Slide47

You just can’t make these stories up!!!!

There has to be a reason this happen?

I am not born again!!!! I don't go around preaching. I'm right in the middle and I feel in today's world, we're so busy that we don't even take a minute to read a verse of the bible.

Anyway, I’m going to paste the God’s minute in the blog every instance I get one.

I will set it up so if you’re interested? You will have to go inside the blog to read it.

Sound fair? Ok here’s the last one I received this morning-

THEN I SAID, "HERE I AM, I HAVE COME--IT IS WRITTEN
IN THE SCROLL. I DESIRE TO DO YOUR WILL, O MY
GOD; YOUR LAW IS WITHIN MY HEART."
( PSALM 40:7-8 *NIV )

Dear Charles,
God has a plan for each of us, for it is written;
"I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU, SAYS THE
LORD. "THEY ARE PLANS FOR GOOD, NOT FOR EVIL,
TO GIVE YOU A FUTURE AND A HOPE."
( JEREMIAH 29:11 )

Now when we follow the path that God has for us, we find
that God is a very kind leader. Only He knows our future,
and His plans for us are good and full of hope! This does
not mean that we will be spared pain, suffering, or hardship,
but that God will see us through to a glorious conclusion!

After all; THE PRECEPTS OF THE LORD ARE RIGHT,
GIVING JOY TO THE HEART. THE COMMANDS OF THE
LORD ARE RADIANT, GIVING LIGHT TO THE EYES.
THEY ARE MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD, THAN MUCH
PURE GOLD; THEY ARE SWEETER THAN HONEY,
THAN HONEY FROM THE COMB. ( PSALM 19:8 & 10 )

Further; IF THE LORD DELIGHTS IN A MAN'S WAY, HE
MAKES HIS STEPS FIRM; THOUGH HE STUMBLE, HE
WILL NOT FALL, FOR THE LORD UPHOLDS HIM WITH
HIS HAND. ( PSALM 37:23-24 )

So Charles, if you are not already walking the path that
God has chosen for you, why not ask Him in prayer to lead
you to it. For once you have found that path your heart will
become filled with joy, and; THE PEACE OF GOD, THAT
TRANSCENDS ALL UNDERSTANDING, WILL GUARD
YOUR HEART AND MIND IN CHRIST JESUS. Amen!
( PHILIPPIANS 4:7 )

With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen

CFBC TALK OF THE TOWN IS LISTEN BY NOVA SCOTIANS!!!

rick

Dear Mr Leblanc,

I listen to talk of the town every day and always enjoy listening to your calls. I fully share your view on drugging kids because they've been labelled with some alphabetical disease. I think it is a conspiracy to produce a sleepy drugged next generation, or some form of 'experiment'...but I do NOT think our children need to be MEDICATED!!

Anyway, after your call to Talk of the Town today I went to your blog site, and I LOVE it!! The pictures of Bernie Lord on the site are HILARIOUS!! You literally have me laughing out loud!! IT is SO hilarious!

I love your site and I'm sharing it with all my friends. Keep up the good work and I love the way you speak out on issues and give ppl a site to share your views.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth in Nova Scotia

Hi Charles,, How are you.I'm writing you to get some information on ADHD.

My grandson ?????? is in kindergarden this year.


My daughter told me today that she had a call today from his teacher.She told my daughter that she thought Riley had adhd.she says that he is a little hyper. Also he has difficulty in understanding his work.

I can't believe that she diagnosed him on these two facts.

Where does she get off diagnosing him on her own.I wonder where she got her medical licenses. Boy am I mad. The point is Charles I don't want him on drugs.

I truly believe what you believe in.We do not need to drug our kids.

I will suggests my daughter that she gets him checked by a doctor.

Now if he says that Riley has adhd is there any way to treat it other than drugs.

What is your advice on this issue. Thanks for listening...

Dear Mr. Leblanc,

I am responding to your recent e-mail to Terry McInerney, on behalf of our Assistant Deputy Minister, English Educational Services Division, with whom you met some weeks ago.

I am also including a copy of the e-mail that was sent to superintendents and directors of education in the English public school system.

You may be interested in knowing that this is a reiteration of the message that I sent to the same group, including Student Services administrators approximately two years ago.

You have also requested results concerning the meeting held with the ADM and Pierre Dumas and other interested individuals.

It is important to note that the Expert Report on Behaviour Disorder was initiated
and conducted by the Department of Health, under the direction of Ms. Marcella Laaper, Director of Child and Adolescent Services.

Ms. Barb Whitenect is currently in that position.

In essence, given that this report was initiated and developed by the Department of Health and Wellness, any further action to be taken on this report must be
initiated by the Department of Health and Wellness.

Officials of the Department of Education who participated on that committee did so at the invitation of the committee chair from the Department of Health and Wellness.

You will note that I have also copied this e-mail directed to you to individuals within the Department of Health and Wellness who should be the primary
contacts for any further action concerning that report.

Should you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.

Subject: Medications - Ritalin

Recent stories in the Telegraph Journal and other media have heightened the public's awareness of the drug Ritalin, a drug which is generally used to assist in the treatment of ADD/ADHD among children of school age and adults.

While educators have a definite role to play in the referral process for children who are displaying characteristics associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and in assisting the medical and psychological profession diagnoses of this
disorder, teachers are to refrain from suggesting to parents that prescription medication of any sort should be used in the management of students' behavior.

The diagnoses and prescription of medication for disorders that impact on a classroom's Positive Learning Environment remains the responsibility of the
medical profession.

Principals are asked to remind teachers that the Department of Education recognizes that teachers have an important role to play in the referral process.

Suggesting to parents that they may want to consider discussing their child's attention difficulties with their family doctor comes as a result of a
collaborative process involving the school-based student services team who have considered in- depth the child's strengths and needs.

Teachers are encouraged to share their observations with the school-based student services teams, and with physicians.

Teachers can also serve as an important source of information in the monitoring by the physician of appropriate dosage of medication.

Please share this information with principals, who will share with their staff.

CHARLES IS LABEL AS A SECURITY RISK AT THE NEW BRUNSWICK LEGISLATURE!!!

Complaint of Charles LeBlanc to the
New Brunswick Human Rights Commission
Complaint alleging political activity discrimination
respecting employment contrary to Section 3 of the
New Brunswick Human Rights Act
October 13, 2005


On September 27th while walking by the Legislature, I noticed two individuals sitting down on the steps of the New Brunswick Legislature having a cigarette.

One of the workers - named Eugene - asked me if I wanted to work? He told me his boss was upstairs and he would hire me right on the spot at $8.00 an hour!

I decided to go and meet the boss. I asked the Commissionaire Andre Ouellette if I could go upstairs and he gave me a card.

Once there, the contractor told me that he indeed needed some help and I would be paid $10.00 an hour. The work was to replace an old ceiling.

I noticed they were bringing up the stairway some large planks and staging.

I decided to give them a helping hand. The boss told me that I could begin to work immediately. I carried the 15 foot planks up two flights of stairs.

On one occasion, Daniel Bussieres (Sergeant At Arms) came outside and told me I had to pass a security clearance.

tentbussieres

He was smiling when he made that statement so I didn't think he was serious and I never gave it another thought.

Thereafter, not one person in authority approached me in a formal manner to do a security clearance.

The issue was dropped.

After a few hours of hard work, my job was done. I found out that my new Boss knew some people from my Village of Memramcook.

He looked like a nice guy so and I was glad that I found a job where I was hired by my own action.

The boss told me that he would pay me on Friday for my work. I was also told the project would not begin on Monday because there was a delay of over one week.

Before I left the Legislature, Daniel Bussieres told me in front of the Boss
that I shouldn't write any of this in my blog.

I have a blog site http://oldmaison.blogspot.com where I write stories on what is happening in New Brunswick politics.

Charles 04_07_05 036

I have had over 35,000 visitors to my popular blog site.

I also write a lot of Letters to the Editor and I have a bi-weekly column in the River Valley News where I write about different issues.

Charles 04_07_05 027

I am known as an ADHD activist because of my six months protest outside the
Legislature in 2003 but I also write extensively about NB government policies particularly as they affect the poor.

Because I am on short term disability welfare, I have a lot of time on my hands.

I could have walked towards the sunset with my head down and turned to alcohol and drugs but I refuse to take the route.

So this is how I choose to spend my days. As a citizen, I am entitled to go the Legislature.

f16

I would rather be working but it is very hard to get a job, so you can imagine how happy I was to know I was going to start working!!

My whole life was going to change!

So I quickly told Dan Bussieres, "Hey? Why would I write about this issue in
my blog? I might be crazy but I'm not stupid!!!! This is personal!"

I left the Legislature feeling good about myself. I was going to work for 6 months and this was a good thing because the cold winter months are just around the corner. It's not far from where I live. The boss and the workers look like nice people. Hey? Life is great!!! I always said that someone is watching over me!

On September 30th, I went at the Legislature and I noticed one of the workers walking by the elevator. I asked the worker Eugene if the boss was ok with my work the other day? He told me that the boss and everyone were very happy. That gave me a good feeling.

I went upstairs to meet my boss. Once there, they were working on the ceiling and I was surprise they never called me but that was ok!

The boss put me aside and paid me my 40 bucks.

He reminded me there was a delay in the project but everything seems a go for me to begin work.

On October 5th, I noticed one of the workers in the hallway of the Legislature and I was surprised they were working. Eugene didn't have the same attitude. He sort of talk to me in a confused manner. He didn't understand what was going on?

I told the Commissionaire Andre Ouellette that I was going upstairs to visit
the boss.

P1010076

Once there, the boss look happy and we chatted for a few minutes.

I was ready to ask him when do I start working, but all of a sudden, Andre Ouellette was present beside me and told me that I wasn't allowed in this area.

I was surprised especially since I told Mr. Ouellette that I was going upstairs.

I asked him to give me a minute and I'll be down. Mr. Ouellette raised his voice and demanded that I leave immediately!

P1010076

He was degrading me in front of my boss and the question was why? I might add that the boss had a surprise look on his face.

I quickly left the area but told Andre that this wasn't right and this issue is not done yet! Not for a long shot! I quickly left the Legislature because I knew if I crossed that thin line and blow my temper they would use that as a reason to evict me from the Legislature. I was very upset!

On October 6th, I walked in the Legislature as I have doing for almost the last two years.

I usually visit the library and read the newspapers.

On many occasions, I would visit Dan Bussieres and we would chat on different issues
of the day.

tentbussieres

I always liked Dan Bussieres. I believe that we were good friends during and after the protest. As a matter of fact, he picked me up on two different occasions to attend his church.

On many occasions, we would exchange stories. He never once told me that I wasn't allowed to visit his office.

Once outside, I noticed the boss Contractor arriving with one of his workers.

The worker walked by me and never even blinked an eye. I said - "You just drove from Moncton? "

I could tell by the expression on his face that he didn't want to chat with me.

He walked by me and I quickly added - "Are we starting next week?"

He turned around and said- "T'es pas mal tannant toi!!!"

Translation means - "You can be a pain in the butt."

He added the people in the Legislature didn't like me!!!

I just ignored his statement and he continued - "You protest everything!!!"

I began to stutter because I knew at that moment that I didn't get the job because the staff at the Legislature told the boss something about me.

I explain to the boss that I was indeed a protester. I protested in a tent for
six months against the use of Ritalin.

charles1
charles

He asked - "Ritalin? What's that???"

I told the contractor that it was a pill to drugged children.

He repeated - "They don't like you in there!!!"

Afterwards, he turned his back and walked in the Legislature. I knew at that moment that the jig was up! I could read between the lines.

He was telling me that the staff at the Legislature didn't like me and there was no
way in the world that he was going to hire me because they decide who will do
the work.

I was very upset the Commissionaires would go out of their way telling the contracter not to hire me.

I told myself to relax and try to settle down and think of the next step?

What can I do? There must be something? This is not right! I spoke to a few people who I go to for advice and they suggested that I meet with Dan Bussieres.

On October 7th, I set up a meeting with Mr. Bussieres to explain to the Sergeant At Arms what had just happened.

tentbussieres

I sent an email to Mr. Bussieres (excerpt below).

I was strongly advise by some bureaucrats to send you an email. I am just following orders.

Can I have a meeting in your office today to discuss an very very very important issue!

Just email me the time....

Merci!

He replied and the meeting began at 3:08 pm that day.

I told Daniel the whole story.

He listened to me for over 10 minutes.

Afterwards, he explained to me the rules the contractor had to follow if they wish to
do some work at the Legislature. One of them was that every worker had to pass a security clearance.

I reminded Mr. Brussieres that he already told me this the other day.

He told me I should have never been allowed upstairs a few days earlier.

I told Mr. Brussieres that I did tell Andre Ouellette that I was going upstairs.

P1010076

He sort of told me that it was my word against his.

He continued by explaining to me the contractors couldn't have visitors in their work area because they are paid by the hour and they have no time to chat.

I didn't understand what he was telling me but I listened.

Then he told me that the contractor should have never hired me in the first place because I didn't pass security clearance.

tentbussieres

I asked the Sergeant At Arms - Why was I allowed to work for four hours in the first place?

At the end of our conversation, I asked - "Are you trying to tell me that I cannot work for the contractor?"

He told me - "Listen! You're allowed to work for the contractor but not here at the Legislature because you are a security risk!!!"

I was shocked!!

I replied- "You're telling me that I'm a security risk therefore I'm not allowed to work in this building???"

I just couldn't believe it especially since Mr. Bussieres has known me for over three years. I quickly left his office.

The question is this?

Why would the Sergeant At Arms label me at a security risk?

tentbussieres

Why? I never harmed or threatened anyone.

I immediately walked over the Fredericton Police Headquarters and asked if I could see my file? I wanted to know if I was labeled as a security risk?

f5

The police said that I am not allowed to access my file unless I ask the Police
Chief in writing for a copy of my file and / or if I commit a crime.

I went through a lot of mental hardship because of Mr. Bussiere's orders to the contractor that I shouldn't be hired because I'm a security risk.

tentbussieres

I also spent the little money I had because I was certain that I would begin
working that Monday but it never happened.

I am very disappointed and hurt.

It has effected my economic situation because now I don't have a job.

I want to know if the Sergeant At Arms is allowed to label certain individuals as a security risk without any supporting evidence?

I believe the real reason he didn't want me to work there is because I am a political activist and he doesn't like what I say in my blog.

I could have worked for over 6 months but the Sergeant At Arms said no!

tentbussieres

I lost six months work because of what he said about my political activism.

These are the facts:

Fact: On September 27th, 2005, I was offered a job working 40 hours a week at $10 an hour repairing the ceiling at the Legislature.

The job was supposed to last six months. I would have made $9,600.00 over the
duration of my employment.

Fact: I am a blogger who writes about New Brunswick politics

I protested in a tent in front of the Legislature for six months and continued till this day via the information Highway protesting against certain policies of the Government of the day.

Fact: The employer (his name and company name) didn't know I was a Blogger or that I was involved in politics.

He just thought I was a good worker.

Fact: As soon as the Sgt. at Arms Dan Bussiere and the other Commissionaires found out the employer was going to hire me, they took him aside and told him not to because "they don't like" me (exact quote from the employer).

Presumably, they told him I was a security risk too, which prejudiced the employer against me.

Therefore, he wouldn't hire me.

Why don't the Sgt. At Arms and the Commissionaires like me? I believe they don't like me because I am a political activist who writes a blog about New Brunswick politics and they don't like what I have to say.

Fact: When I asked Sgt. At Arms what happened, he said I was a security risk.

Fact: I go to the Legislature every day.

Question: If I am a security risk, why do they let me in the legislature? If I was a security risk, one would think that I would be barred from entering the building but I am not nor have I ever been.

Even the Speaker of the House, MLA Bev Harrison, told me as recently as October 11, 2005, that he knew nothing of me being labeled a "Security risk"
(email attached).

One would think the Speaker of the House would know about me being labeled a
security risk if it was true. Perhaps the Speaker of the House doesn't know about me being labeled a security risk because I am not a security risk.

And if I am not, I should be able to work on this job or in an equivalent
position making $10 an hour. I believe I should get the job on the basis of
my own merit, not lose it on the basis of my political activity.

My politics is separate from my work. All I want to do is earn a living and get off
welfare.

I thought I had my chance to do just that but it looks like it was taken away from me because the commissionaires don't like my politics!

I never even got a chance to prove myself.

I believe this is discrimination in employment based on the protect ground of political activity.
