Salary 2009 $140,561.00
Brenda Edwards (shown left) is a lawyer. According to the records of the Law Society of British Columbia, Ms. Edwards was admitted to the bar on November 16, 1990.
In 1998, Ms. Edwards was the Assistant Deputy Minister to the anti-American Premier, Glen Clark, and, in that capacity, she wrote a letter to Sun Belt Water, Inc., President, Jack Lindsey, advising that instructions had been given to the Attorney General of British Columbia to respond to proposal to resolve the claim of Sun Belt Water Inc, then filed in the courts of British Columbia, on an amicable basis.
When Sun Belt sent a proposal to settle the claim to the British Columbia Ministry of the Attorney General, the lead lawyer, Don Chiasson, advised he had no instructions to enter any discussions towards a settlement.
So, someone was lying.
Either the Premier of British Columbia, through his assistant deputy minister, Brenda Edwards, was lying, or, the Attorney General, through lawyers Don Chiasson and Lisa Shendroff, was lying.
This is a typical “forked tongue” or “fraudulent” tactic often used by Governments in Canada.
Not much thought was given to Brenda Edwards in 1998. It was assumed she was following instructions from the devious anti-American Premier Glen Clark.
However, in 2007, Brenda Edwards surfaced, in a much more sinister way, that now raises a strong suspicion that she was a key player in the strategy of fraud against Sun Belt Water Inc. back in 1998.
As stated elsewhere on this site, the Governments of Canada and British Columbia, through the use its crooked judges,David Vickers, Robert Edwards, and Jim Taylor, all now deceased, had put Mr. Carten in a financial box. By 2007, he owed over $300,000 in arrears of child support, his assets had been looted, his law practice was destroyed, he was prevented from working at his profession because he had blown the whistle on corruption, and he was subject to an ongoing order that he pay $2,000 a months in child support when his monthly income was about $800 to $1,200.
The Government was threatening to put Mr. Carten in jail, again.
A hearing was set for September 26, 2007, in the Provincial Court of British Columbia at Nanaimo on Vancouver Island and there was a real risk that the judge would put Mr. Carten in jail - again.
Mr. Carten knew that his previous court hearing where he was put in jail for 40 days had been fixed by the “judicial mafia” inside the British Columbia court system.
In order to protect himself, Mr. Carten decided to issue subpoena's to three of those insiders to force them to come to court and give evidence under cross examination which would expose the criminal conduct by Government insiders that led to Mr. Carten's inability to pay child support in the sum stipulated by the fraudulent Court Orders.
The first was BC lawyer John Horn who had been a Master of the Supreme Court that assisted to loot the property of Ms. Gibbs and who stated “Mr. Carten you have ruined everything” referring to Mr. Carten's exposure of criminal conduct inside the Ministry of the Attorney General that paid his salary.
The second was British Columbia Law Society President , Tim McGee who was in charge of the Law Society's strategy of character assassination by psychiatry employed against Mr. Carten because he had blown the whistle on the legal and judicial corruption he had encountered.
The third was Mr. Allan Gould, a minor judge of the Provincial Court of British Columbia who, contrary to established law, put Mr. Carten in for 40 days, in 1998, at a hearing where Mr. Carten was denied the right to call witnesses in his defence and where two sheriffs were in attendance to throw him in jail right away so he could not file an appeal.
Shortly after the subpoenas were served, Brenda Edwards re-entered the WaterWarCrimes as the legal assistant to the Chief Judge of the Provincial Court of British Columbia, Hugh Stansfield.
As far as we know, Chief Judge Hugh Stansfield was totally unconnected to the bulk water export swindle that involved Brenda Edwards, as a seemingly minor player in 1998, but what Ms. Edwards did over the next few months led, inevitably, to the sudden death of Chief Judge Hugh Stansfield in May, 2009.
Instead of setting the application to strike Judge Gould's subpoena for the morning of the hearing on September 26, 2009, in Nanaimo, where the parties were appearing, Ms. Edwards set the hearing for September 25, 2007, in the remote Vancouver Island community of Port Alberni. Such a tactic was calculated to make it all but impossible for Mr. Carten to appear. This is one example of how government employees in Canada use the system to make life difficult for average citizens.
Not surprisingly, Judge Brian Klaver, in the absence of argument from Mr. Carten, struck the subpoenas issued against Judge Gould but, astonishingly Judge Klaver also struck the two subpoenas issued against John Horn and Tim McGee even though no one appeared in court to make the application that they be struck. It was clear that someone was improperly and secretly communicating directly with Judge Brian Klaver. Again, this is how the governments operate in Canada – they give secret instructions to the judges.
When Mr. Carten attended the hearing set for September 26, 2007, he was met by three fully armed sheriffs and thoroughly searched before being permitted to enter the courtroom. This was highly unusual. Mr. Carten had never been searched before when entering a court hearing and he has no history of violence.
This act by the sheriff's service was obviously a set up by somebody trying to intimidate Mr. Carten. Again, this was an example of how Canada's governments threaten and intimidate averge citizens who are exposing corruption.
During the hearing, Judge Klaver confirmed that he was not going to permit any witnesses and then he scheduled another hearing for February, 2008.
After the hearing, attempts were made to determine who was behind security measures and made inquiries with Sheriff's Services and the Court Administration that included Ms. Edwards. The Sheriff and the Court stonewalled and, to this day, no one will admit who ordered the extreme security measures against Mr. Carten and why. This is another example of Government in Canada where no one will take responsibility for their acts.
It was obvious that Provincial Court of British Columbia was now totally corrupt, so, Mr. Carten filed a Petition in the Supreme Court of British Columbia seeking an injunction preventing the under-educated, backwoods, bully-boy, politically appointed and controlled, Provincial Court judges from dealing with the case.
The documents filed with Petition identified BC Supreme Court Justice Robert Edwards, retired Canadian Chief Justice Antonio Lamer and retired BC Chief Justice Allan McEachern as part of a criminal conspiracy against Mr. Carten. The documents were filed in the Supreme Court under Kelowna Action Number 77, 000 on October 25, 2007 and served upon the government of Canada and Government of BC.
Within ten weeks, all three of these judges were dead;
Justice Robert Edwards dropped dead on November 5, 2007
Retired Chief Justice Antonio Lamer died on November 24, 2007
Retired Chief Justice Allan McEachern died on January 10, 2008
The application for an injunction was set for a hearing in Kelowna, British Columbia, on December 14, 2007, and legal counsel handling the case was Mr. Craig Jones.
Mr. Craig Jones was accompanied by a middle aged woman who identified herself as Brenda Edwards who stated she was sent by Provincial Court Chief Judge Hugh Stansfield to watch the proceedings. It was obvious that Chief Judge Stansfield was very worried about something.
Ms. Edwards has supplied Mr. Jones with a false affidavit and, on two or three occasions, Mr. Carten advised Ms. Edwards she had broken the law and she could go to jail for doing that.
The application for an injunction was unsuccessful and it is suspected that Mr. Justice Victor Curtis took instructions from insiders because parts of his judgment did not make rational sense and because that is how the system of justice in Canada operates. Despite the public posture of the legal profession, the judiciary and the Canadian government, in cases where the state has an interest, judges are often told what to write and, sometimes, the decisions are written for them. This is exactly the system that operated in Communist Czechoslovakia described in the classic text “A Judge in the Communist State, the view from within”, by Otto Ulc, a judge in the former Soviet slave state of Czechoslovakia. Canada, in the late 20th century, has evolved into a government controlled state similar to the soviet models.
The conduct of Brenda Edwards raised suspicions about her motives.
Why would a judge's assistant travel 500 miles on, at taxpayers expense, to watch and report on a court hearing when her attendance was entirely unnecessary?
Over the next several weeks, documents involving Brenda Edwards were carefully reviewed and her role in the fraud carried out against Sun Belt Water Inc. emerged.
E-mails were then sent encouraging Ms. Edwards to co-operate with the ongoing police investigation being carried out by the Victoria City Police. Copies of the e-mails were sent to the police encouraging them to interview Ms. Edwards.
Instead of investigating Ms. Edwards role in the fraud that had been carried out against Sun Belt Water, Inc., in 1998, the Victoria City Police, under the leadership of now disgraced Chief Battershill, commenced a prosecution of Mr. Carten based on an exaggerated tale told to them by Brenda Edwards that Mr. Carten had harassed her in a manner that threatened her personal safety.
This malicious unwarranted, unprecedented, and preposterous prosecution took over a year to resolve.

Government of Canada / British Columbia prosecutors, Tim Stokes and Robert Gillen, were so determined to secure a conviction that they continued the prosecution when it was proved the complainant had given the police false information.
Fortunately, the prosecutors were not prepared for the fact that Mr. Craig Jones, a government lawyer and a witness to the allegations, decided to tell the truth and the false allegations by Ms. Edwards against Mr. Carten were exposed and he was acquitted.
In keeping with its policy of cover up and deceit, the reasons for judgment of Mr. Justice Peter Leask are not published on the government operated court case database. This is a common strategy by Canadian Governments that actively suppress legal decisions that, occasionally, make findings that are embarassing to the Government. Justice Leask is well known to be one of the few independent judges in British Columbia and he is frequently the butt of criticism by government agents who think that every case should be decided in favour of the crooks inside the Ministry of the Attorney General.
The malicious prosecution is another example of how Canada's governments treat whistle blowers and protect their employees who engage in questionable conduct.
The transfer of Ms. Brenda Edwards from the position of assistant deputy minister to Premier Clark over to the position of legal assistant to the Chief Judge of the Provincial Court is an example of how Canadian governments reward and protect those who aid and abet nefarious shcemes within government. Many a lawyer who has "done dirty" work for the Government of British Columbia or friends of the government has been subsequently rewarded and protected with a judicial position.
In the absence of evidence to the contrary, one could fairly argue that the present Provincial Court Associate Chief Judge Brian Neal was rewarded with his judicial position due to his approval, as the Chief Solicitor for British Columbia, of the crooked transaction between the Government of British Columbia and W.C.W. Western Canada Water Enterprises Ltd. a transaction that was key to the scheme to create a bulk water export monopoly from Canada. Similarly, to the cynical observer, it appears that the Attorney General of British Colubmia, Mr. Brian Smith, was rewarded with a position as Chairman of Canada's government owned Canadian National Railway. However, to be fair to Brian Smith, it is entirely possible that, during his career as a lawyer and as a politican, he learned the necessary talents to run a major railway company and that his job was not a political reward as it appears to have been.
Deceased Chief Judge Stansfield appears to have been rewarded with his position due to his role as in the Dr. Kuntz Affair a complex medical legal insurance fraud carried out by some of Canada's top legal firms with the assistance of the "judicial mafia". It is worth noting that Canada's present Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin appears to have played a role in that scam also.
When Deputy Minister to the Attorney General, Gillian Wallace was exposed as directing a fraud on the court in the Sun Belt Water Law suit (see First and Second Police Report) the Canadian Government subsequently rewarded her with a as adjudicator on Canada's National Parole Board and lawyer Don Chiasson, (referred to above was) appears to have been rewarded with a position with a national judicial institute in Ottawa - although this information is not yet verified.
When William Pearce, Q.C., was under the spotlight for his role in the crimes of fraud perjury nad obstruction of justice carried out by the Attorney General for British Columbia in the Sun Belt Water Lawsuit, he suddenly took a transfer offshore to become the Attorney General of Bermuda the home of Accenture Corporation the company that purchased a some of the prime public assets of British Columbia when Premier Gordon Campbell first took office.
