Grand Jury on Treason
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 including the grand and trial jury
• protection from arbitrary state power
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 through indictments presented directly to a judge.
• Citizens investigated government agencies and complaints of abuse of authority through presentments made directly to a judge.
The Grand Jury operated in Canada before and after confederation for about 300 years.
In 1970 Trudeau senior worked on abolishing the grand jury but he failed.
Over time, the indictment function of the Grand Jury was made to appear repealed within the Criminal Code through revisions and restructuring processes.
However, this was not done through a direct parliamentary bill expressly debating and abolishing the Grand Jury indictment function itself.
Instead, the appearance of repeal emerged through the federal revision and consolidation process carried out under the Revised Statutes legislation.
That distinction matters enormously.
Because the historical presentment function of the Grand Jury — the citizen power to investigate public wrongdoing and present findings concerning abuses of authority — was never even made to appear abolished by Parliament.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚖️ 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 to a judge exposing wrongdoing
⚖️ Lay criminal charges by returning indictments
The Grand Jury does not merely recommend prosecution.
It historically possessed the authority to lay charges itself when the evidence established a crime.
Grand Juries historically addressed matters 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.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚖️ NSICOP — FINDINGS OF FOREIGN INTERFERENCE ⚖️
The NSICOP report released June 3, 2024 confirmed that foreign governments influenced 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.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚖️ 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 investigate or 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 or issue a presentment to a judge.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚖️ 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 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
• examine whether indictments are warranted 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.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚖️ GRAND JURY POOL — CITIZENS CAN PARTICIPATE ⚖️
A Citizens’ Grand Jury requires a pool of qualified citizens from which jurors can be randomly selected.
To begin restoring this historic safeguard, a Grand Jury pool is now being developed across Canada.
Canadian citizens who wish to participate in this lawful process may volunteer to be placed in the selection pool.
Those who are over 18, are Canadian citizens, and have no criminal record may participate as members of the Grand Jury pool of potential jurors.

⚖️ 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 one of the most serious breaches of public trust in Canadian history 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.
The Grand Jury is the people’s voice.
And the time to use it is now.
