District of Tofino = A Criminal Organization

The depth of the criminality at the District of Tofino is exemplified by three different crimes against the English family all intended to destroy their business.

The first major crime regarding water billing is historic and is not regarded as related to the later BCIMC conspiracy but illustrates why British Columbia is a dangerous place to do business.

What the reader needs to understand is that all the pension funds of the District employees, including the Administrator, the engineer and the public works employees are managed by BCIMC which is intimately connected to all the public service unions in British Columbia and many such unions elsewhere in Canada so BCIMC is in a position to exert its influence over these people and punish and reward them as it deems fit. 

Fraudulent Water Billing By Tofino Public Servants 

In about 1997, Mr. English, finally had enough of ever increasing municipal water bills supplying water poisoned with chlorine, especially since the campground originally had its own water line coming from a creek on Meares Island and when the municipality put in its own water system they deceitfully convinced him to switch from his own system to the municipal system telling him their water would be free.

Instead, it was only free for the first year then they started billing him monthly and the bills got higher every year.

So, he drilled for water on his land, found an underground water source and built his own new onsite water system to service the campground and recreational vehicle park. 

He notified the District that he had his own water and that he was no longer using their water.

However, the crooked Tofino public servants continued to sent him a fraudulent water bill claiming as much as $2,000 per month in water use even though the lines were physically cut off.  

Crooked Tofino public servants claimed that their meter showed he was using lots of water.  

Mr. English had photos showing the lines were severed and he had documents proving the date when this was done and he sent these to Tofino and demanded that Tofino take the water meter to a qualified inspector to find out why it was not working properly.

Knowing they would be caught in fraudulent billing scheme and facing a jail term, the crooked public servants at Tofino officials sent in their workers and removed the water meter so it could not be used as evidence against them but they still demanded payment for the water they had fraudulently billed earlier and forced Mr. English to pay this by adding it to the property tax bill.   

The Fraudulent Development Cost Charges By Tofino

John  Fraser 

According to Jack English, when BCIMC embarked on its plan to take over his family resort it contacted Mayor John Fraser and Administrator, Braden Smith, and who hatched a diabolical plan that, according to  inside sources, was referred to as the "The Get Jack By - Law" which imposed "Development Cost Charges" (DCC) on each of the campsites and RV park site that were "160 times more" than those charged to other campgrounds and RV parks in the municipality.

The total bill was about $5.3 million and would have bankrupted the English family business.

The charges were allegedly for a sewer and water system but that was put in place over 40 years before Mayor, John Fraser and Administrator, Braden Smith occupied their positions at Tofino.

The imposition of the charges was completely illegal because the property was not part of the municipality when the water and sewer services were connected, DCC's were not authorized under the Municipal Act at the time and all property was grandfathered in when it was later incorporated into the municipality. 

This DCC issue was used by BCIMC in Court to argue that the English family property

have a low value, the business was not viable and that the English family had no way to pay our debt and no chance of redemption of our property. In retrospect, it now appears probable that Tofino officials were co-ordinating their efforts directly with the opposing party in the litigation and its lawyer, Steve Wilson, who was subsequently rewarded by BCIMC when he was hired by the Government to work as a court Master earning $250,000 per year.  


Braden West 

The astute observer realizes immediately that it was very probably BCIMC insiders who crafted the by law because Mayor Fraser and his side kick, Administrator Braden Smith, are not well known for their intelligence.

Generally, there are very few Municipalities in British Columbia that charge DCC's on campgrounds.   Mr. English conducted a search and found that only ONE Municipality in BC charged DCC's on campsites and that was the City of Kelowna which charged only $50 per campsite while the District of Tofino was conspiring to put the English family out of business by charging $8,500 per campsite.

The fact that the charges were 160 times those charged to anyone else receiving similar services proved they were part of a criminally malicious attempt to bankrupt the English’s family campground and supports the overall theory that the intent was to make the property worthless in order to assist BCIMC to steal it for a tiny fraction of its actual value because no one in their right mind would put an offer in on a property facing those kinds of charges in addition to the other problems the Mayor and his Administrator had in mind - like cutting off the sewer service which is discussed below.

Mr. English appealed to people in the Provincial Ministry of Municipal Affairs in Victoria who oversaw local municipalities and they agreed the by-law was totally illegal and they told Mayor Fraser and Administrator Braden Smith to cancel it. 

Sewer Fraud and Cut Off By Tofino Public Servants  

Braden West 

According to Mr. English, since about 1985, the English family's campground and recreational vehicle park, serving about 600 sites, had been connected to District of Tofino's sanitary sewer system through a gravity flow connection to the municipal lift station located nearby and to the District of Tofino municipal water system.  Mr. English and later, he and his children, ran the campground since 1984.

In 2010, crooked public servants at Tofino advised Mr. English that it intended to carry out some work at the gravity flow lift station that led to the English family campground and recreational vehicle park. This was located on the piece of property on the water side of highway and was not the same piece of property where BC Hydro had destroyed the access bridge in August, 2010.

The Tofino Administrator, Braden Smith, and the Tofino Municipal Engineer, John Motherwell, both gave assurances to Mr. English and his engineer, Mirek Demidow, that the sewer service would not be cut off.

Mr. English and his family were preparing to re-open the campground and RV park so they could re-establish their income flow and repay or re-finance their mortgage.

Everything was ready to go, but the criminal public servants at Tofino had different plans.

Despite their previous advice, the crooked public servants at Tofino had cut off the sewer service to the English family campground and recreational vehicle park and then refused to re-connect it.

The Tofino workers had actually blocked the sewer by pouring concrete into the sewer pipe.

This was done illegally, maliciously, and with the clear intent of driving the English family out of business.

IT DOES APPEAR REWARDS WERE PAID TO THE WICKED

The available facts suggest that BCIMC paid rewards to their faithful agents in their service at the District of Tofino who assisted BCIMC destroy the English Family’s business and assist snd deliver it to BCIMC at fire sale prices. 

Tofino Mayor, John Fraser, was rewarded with a position in Sotheby’s Realty Canada which was recently purchased by BCIMC. 

And, Tofino Administrator, Braden Smith, got a high paying job as the Chief Planner for the City of Winnipeg where BCIMC also does business. Mr. Braden Smith looks a little worried and so he should because, if he was party to the criminal conspiracy as it appears he was, then he faces career termination and a long jail term. 

Linda Pettinger, the real estate agent used by the Mission Creek Mortgage Ltd appeared to have rigged the judicial sale by making sure no one put a bid on the except BCIMC subsidiary Parkbridge and a suspected Hell’s Angel’s company from Coombs which was just slightly less.

It is a strange and odd coincidence that the Hell’s Angels were also involved with BCIMC at the Pickton Pig Farm massacres of mainly drug addicted First Nations women which explains why the local First Nations community wanted nothing to do with BCIMC.

More Dirt on Fraser and Smith

According to a  former Tofino Councillor, Administrator Braden Smith perjured himself while giving sworn testimony in BC Supreme Court proceedings in Victoria where Yew Wood Developments, were suing Smith and the District  of Tofino for malfeasance and fraud for his illegal shutting down of their project.

Yew Wood Developments lawyers, Crease Harman, in Victoria, were recalling Smith to be cross-examined about his alleged perjury and fabrication of evidence. 

Instead, Smith fled to Germany and failed to appear.

Smith allegedly called Mayor John Fraser from Germany and told him that if he was going to be convicted of these charges he would take Fraser down with him.  Fraser immediately called the District's Lawyers and ordered them to settle the case with Yew Wood for over $1 Million dollars so that Smith would not be charged
and possibly go to jail.

All of the foregoing is top secret and subject to a non-disclosure agreement that the lawyers for the District of Tofino crafted and got everyone to sign so the taxpayers in Tofino would not know why their funds were paid out and so Mayor Fraser and Administrator Smith would escape probable criminal prosecution and possible long term jail sentence if convicted.    

District Of Tofino Asked To Confirm or Deny Facts

We value honesty and integrity. We want insure that you, our readers, get the truth so we regularly contact the responsible parties for verification.

On Wednesday, August 10, 2016 we contacted former Mayor John Fraser and former Administrator Braden Smith to get their side of the story.

Then on Friday August 12, 2016 we contacted the present Mayor, Councillors and Administrator of the District of Tofino to get their side of the story.  

We never got a reply from John Fraser and Braden Smith but on the very day we sent our email to the Mayor Councillors and Administrator of Tofino we got a reply that does not deny anything posted here but does not admit it either.

The Administrator refused to comment because there is litigation which is a normal response, we suppose, but not a good sign because it is more cover up of crimes by public servants who should be prosecuted and not protected.      

The emails are posted online at Web site dedicated to the case
