The Issue

🇨🇦 DECLARATION TO STRIKE A CITIZENS’ GRAND JURY
TO INVESTIGATE TREASON AND FOREIGN INTERFERENCE IN CANADA

🇨🇦 A CALL TO CONSCIENCE — THE GRAND JURY: THE PEOPLE’S POWER TO DEFEND THE NATION ⚖️

Canada is facing one of the most serious constitutional crises in its history.

On June 3, 2024, the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP) released a report confirming that certain Canadian parliamentarians knowingly cooperated with foreign governments seeking to influence Canadian politics.

The report states:

“Some parliamentarians have knowingly worked with foreign states or their proxies.”

The report further explains that foreign actors sought to influence:

political nominations

election outcomes

public policy decisions

the internal operations of political parties

These findings represent one of the most serious national security warnings ever issued within Canada’s parliamentary system.

Collaboration with foreign powers to manipulate the political processes of Canada constitutes conduct consistent with treason against the nation.

Yet despite these findings:

No names have been publicly identified

No arrests have been made

No criminal charges have been laid

No public criminal investigation has been initiated

When credible evidence of treason exists but the institutions responsible for prosecution refuse to act, a fundamental question arises:

Who holds the authority to initiate justice?

In the common law tradition, the answer has always been clear:

The People.

Through the institution known as the Grand Jury.

THE GRAND JURY — ROOTED IN MAGNA CARTA

The Grand Jury traces its origins to the constitutional principles recognized in Magna Carta (1215).

Magna Carta established that rulers were subject to the law and that justice must arise from the lawful judgment of the community, not from arbitrary power.

From this principle emerged the Grand Jury.

For centuries the Grand Jury served as the people’s investigative body, ensuring that:

crimes against the public could be investigated

officials could be held accountable

accusations of serious crimes could originate from the people themselves

The Grand Jury became one of the primary safeguards against tyranny in the common law world.

THE GRAND JURY IN CANADIAN LAW

Canada inherited the Grand Jury tradition as part of the common law system.

The rights underlying this institution are reinforced by the Canadian Bill of Rights, which recognizes fundamental liberties including:

the right to life, liberty and security of the person

the right to due process of law

protection from arbitrary state power.

Section 2(e) of the Canadian Bill of Rights affirms that no person shall be deprived of liberty except by due process of law.

Due process historically includes the protections of the jury system, which formed the cornerstone of common law criminal justice.

The Grand Jury represents the investigative branch of that jury system, through which citizens historically determined whether criminal charges should be laid.

WHAT A GRAND JURY IS

A Grand Jury is a body of citizens assembled to investigate serious crimes affecting the public and the state.

Historically, a Grand Jury possesses the authority to:

🔍 Investigate crimes against the nation and the public trust

📜 Issue subpoenas compelling witnesses and documents

⚖️ Hear sworn testimony and examine evidence

📄 Issue presentments exposing wrongdoing

⚖️ Lay criminal charges by returning indictments

The Grand Jury does not merely recommend prosecution.

It lays charges itself when the evidence establishes a crime.

Historically, Grand Juries have returned indictments for crimes including:

Treason

Corruption

Abuse of public office

Conspiracy against the state

The institution exists specifically so that those in positions of power cannot shield themselves from accountability by controlling prosecutors or political institutions.

THE NSICOP REPORT — FINDINGS OF FOREIGN INTERFERENCE

The NSICOP report released June 3, 2024 confirmed that foreign governments attempted to influence Canadian democratic institutions.

The report states that some parliamentarians:

“wittingly assisted foreign state actors in their efforts to influence Canadian politics.”

It also explains that foreign governments attempted to:

cultivate relationships with elected officials

influence nomination processes

shape policy outcomes inside Canadian political institutions.

Such conduct represents a direct threat to the sovereignty of Canada.

If elected officials knowingly collaborate with foreign governments to manipulate Canadian political decisions, the conduct falls within the historical definition of treason — betrayal of the nation and its constitutional order.

Yet despite these findings:

no individuals have been publicly identified

no criminal investigation has been initiated

no prosecutions have begun

When institutions fail to investigate crimes of this magnitude, the responsibility returns to the citizens themselves.

That responsibility is exercised through the Grand Jury.

CANADIAN PRECEDENT — GRAND JURY CHARGES IN THE WINNIPEG GENERAL STRIKE

A clear Canadian example of the Grand Jury’s power occurred during the Winnipeg General Strike in Winnipeg.

In 1919, tens of thousands of workers participated in the largest labour uprising in Canadian history.

Federal authorities treated the strike leadership as a threat to the state and presented evidence before a Manitoba Grand Jury.

After hearing testimony and reviewing evidence, the Grand Jury returned indictments against several strike leaders, including R. B. Russell and other members of the strike leadership.

The Grand Jury laid criminal charges of seditious conspiracy.

Those indictments triggered prosecutions that resulted in convictions and imprisonment.

Regardless of one’s view of the strike itself, the case demonstrates a clear constitutional fact:

Grand Juries in Canada possessed the authority to hear evidence and lay criminal charges in matters involving alleged threats to the state.

WHY A GRAND JURY IS NECESSARY NOW

Canada now faces a situation where:

a national security body has confirmed foreign interference

elected officials may be implicated

no criminal investigation has followed

This represents a breakdown of democratic accountability.

When institutions refuse to prosecute crimes committed by those in power, the responsibility returns to the citizens themselves.

The Grand Jury restores the balance between government authority and the sovereignty of the people.

It ensures that no officeholder stands above the law.

POWERS OF A CITIZENS’ GRAND JURY

A Citizens’ Grand Jury can:

Investigate Treason

Examine the evidence referenced in the NSICOP report and determine which officials knowingly collaborated with foreign actors.

Compel Evidence

Issue subpoenas requiring:

testimony from officials

government communications

intelligence records

documents related to foreign interference.

Hear Testimony

Citizens, experts, and whistleblowers may provide sworn testimony.

Issue Presentments

Publicly identify wrongdoing uncovered during the investigation.

Lay Charges

Where evidence establishes criminal conduct, the Grand Jury may return indictments and lay charges for treason and related offences.

DECLARATION OF THE PEOPLE

WHEREAS the NSICOP report released June 3, 2024 confirmed that certain Canadian parliamentarians knowingly cooperated with foreign governments attempting to influence Canadian political processes;

WHEREAS such conduct constitutes potential treason and betrayal of the Canadian state;

WHEREAS no criminal investigation or prosecution has followed these findings;

WHEREAS the Grand Jury exists within the common law tradition as a citizen body empowered to investigate crimes against the public;

WHEREAS the Grand Jury possesses the authority to compel evidence, hear testimony, and lay criminal charges through indictments;

WHEREAS the rule of law requires that crimes against the nation be investigated regardless of the status or office of those involved;

THEREFORE:

We, the citizens of Canada, declare our intention to strike a Citizens’ Grand Jury in the true common law tradition to investigate acts of treason and foreign interference identified in the NSICOP report.

This Citizens’ Grand Jury shall:

investigate evidence of treason and foreign interference

compel testimony and documents through subpoena power

hear sworn testimony from witnesses and whistleblowers

issue presentments identifying wrongdoing

lay charges through indictments where criminal conduct is established

This action is undertaken in defense of the rule of law, the sovereignty of the Canadian people, and the preservation of democratic government.

add

Below is the added section placed just before the Grand Jury pool signup, explaining why Grand Juries disappeared in Canada and why citizens are restoring them.

WHY GRAND JURIES DISAPPEARED IN CANADA

For generations, Grand Juries were a normal part of the Canadian justice system.

They operated in provinces across the country and were used to:

investigate corruption

examine prison conditions

review public institutions

lay criminal charges where evidence established wrongdoing

Grand Juries functioned as a direct mechanism of citizen oversight over government power.

Over time, however, the system was gradually dismantled.

During the 20th century, governments replaced citizen-led investigative processes with state-controlled prosecutorial systems, where decisions about criminal charges were placed entirely in the hands of government prosecutors.

By the mid-20th century, the Grand Jury system had largely disappeared from everyday use in Canada.

This did not occur because the institution was unlawful.

It occurred because centralized prosecutorial systems made citizen oversight increasingly unnecessary from the perspective of government authorities.

The result was a profound shift in power.

Instead of citizens having the ability to investigate crimes against the public themselves, the power to initiate prosecutions became concentrated within state institutions.

In ordinary cases this system functions adequately.

But when allegations involve those who control those same institutions, the system can fail.

History shows that Grand Juries were designed precisely for these situations.

They exist so that the people themselves retain the ultimate ability to investigate crimes against the nation when institutions refuse to act.

The effort now underway seeks to restore that historic safeguard.

THE FINAL SAFEGUARD

Throughout the history of free societies, there has always been a final safeguard when institutions fail.

That safeguard is the people themselves.

The Grand Jury exists for precisely this reason.

When evidence of serious crimes against the nation emerges — and those in authority refuse to investigate — the responsibility does not disappear.

It returns to the citizens.

The findings of the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians raise questions that cannot simply be ignored.

If parliamentarians knowingly cooperated with foreign governments to influence Canadian politics, then the most serious crime against the nation may have occurred.

Such allegations cannot remain unanswered.

The rule of law requires investigation.

And when institutions fail to act, citizens must act lawfully to restore accountability.

The Grand Jury is not an act of rebellion.

It is an act of constitutional responsibility.

It is the mechanism through which citizens defend the integrity of their nation and the rule of law itself.

If the people do not act when evidence of treason emerges, then the protection of the nation has already failed.

But if citizens stand together and restore the institutions that safeguard liberty, justice can still prevail.

The Grand Jury is the people’s voice.

And the time to use it is now.
