Wolf Ruck’s opening statement:

 

“At issue are LIFE-DEFINING principles for me—as well as for other property owners in Ontario and Canada—who are engaged in the growing Urban Re-Wilding Movement, and who are faced with onerous municipal by-laws and threatened by oppressive enforcement practices.”

 

Closing statement:

 

“The Rule of Law demands fairness—and Justice demands that Decision-making Authorities be held to the highest standards of fairness, transparency, and accountability.

 

Yesterday, we celebrated the many blessings of living in our sovereign, free, and democratic Canada—a nation founded on the enduring principles of Natural Justice, Constitutional Rights, and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

 

I was heartened to hear Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Canada Day address, reminding us that our nation is governed by the Rule of Law.

 

Today, I am grateful for the opportunity to have presented my case before this Honourable Court.

 

I place my trust in the Court’s wisdom and commitment to justice, assured in the knowledge that the integrity of Ontario’s and Canada’s justice systems will continue to uphold—and inspire—public confidence.”

How Stephen Dasko Lost My Vote For Ward 1 Councillor, Let Alone for Mayor of Mississauga

As Mississaugans prepare to cast their ballots in tomorrow’s too-close-to-call Mayoral Election, here are some points to ponder: 1. In 2021, Councillor Dasko turned 180 degrees back on his 2018 pre-election promise to follow-through on a key element in the City of Mississauga’s Cycling Master Plan to install a CONNECTED, CONVENIENT, COMFORTABLE and SAFE Foot-Bike Bridge connecting SE Lakeview-Mississauga to Toronto’s spectacular Etobicoke Creek Trail – a project approved by a unanimous Council vote in 2018, financed and scheduled for construction in 2019. 2. While Councillor Dasko rightly criticized Doug Ford’s dictatorial “with the stroke of the pen” Ministerial Zoning Order (MZO) issued for developments planned and under construction in Lakeview-Mississauga, Stephen Dasko himself stopped the work-in-progress Orchard Heights Park Foot-Bike Bridge by a single email to Mississauga Parks Management Staff - a dictatorial move in all but name – which caters to a minority of Orchard Heights...
