The psychotherapy legislation (Psychotherapy Act and Controlled Act of Psychotherapy) passed into law by the provincial government in 2007 has always been deemed incoherent, unworkable and a gross violation of the rights and freedoms of the entire population because it not only interferes with, but entirely abridges, the fundamental right of Ontarians to choose their own emotional, spiritual and mental health treatments. Psychotherapy legislation in Ontario was the result of the pharmaceutical-front private corporation (FHRCO) promoting talk therapy (psychotherapy) as a separate profession from psychology, and then lobbying its friends in the Ministry of Health of Ontario, without any evidence whatever to back its claims, that psychotherapy (talk therapy) was dangerous and needed to be restricted to conventional treatment professionals…psychiatrists, psychologists, registered psychotherapists, nurses, occupational therapists and social workers. Since the profession of psychotherapist was manufactured out of thin air by a handful of psychologists (Psychotherapy Act, 2007), it then had to define itself. It did this by quietly changing the definition of psychotherapy from ‘a psychological intervention--talk therapy’ in the Dictionary of Psychology, to being that of 315 non-drug approaches used by holistic, traditional, spiritual and energy practitioners who certainly never regarded themselves as remotely practicing ‘psychotherapy’. So how did unlawful legislation that violates our fundamental freedoms of speech, religious and association reach Committee, let alone pass into law and enforcement in the first place? The Ontario Government and the Courts are bound by International Law (International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, 1976), the Constitution Act, 1982 and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms s. 7 to uphold the Rule of Law and the Full Legal Capacity of YOU the individual. The Rule of Law expresses the individual’s fundamental rights to life, liberty and property. YOUR Full Legal Capacity as a free individual are prioritized over civil law as long as you do no harm to others. The Supreme Court of Canada has upheld this principle repeatedly. (R. v. Wagner 2015, ON CJ 66, and R. v. Peel Regional Service, Chief of Police 2000, CANLII 228008 (ON SC) Attorney General’s neglect of duty: “The role of chief law officer might be referred to as the Attorney General's…. . The importance of the independence of the role is fundamental to the position and well established in common law, statutes and tradition. As chief law officer, the Attorney General has a special responsibility to be the guardian of that most elusive concept - the rule of law. … It is the rule of law that protects individuals, and society as a whole, from arbitrary measures and safeguards personal liberties. The Attorney General has a special role to play in advising Cabinet to ensure the rule of law is maintained and that Cabinet actions are legally and constitutionally valid. The Attorney General has broad responsibilities associated with Government legislation. These responsibilities have been described as twofold. One is to oversee that all legislative enactments are in accordance with principles of natural justice and civil rights (see also s. 5(b) above). This is obviously an important and broad area of responsibility. The second aspect of this responsibility is to advise on the constitutionality and legality of legislation.” Obviously the Attorney General has grossly failed in her duty to us, despite having brought this failure to her attention in October 2015. We received a response indicating she was in favor of the Minister of Health advising us what treatment we can expect and thereby overtly ignoring her duty to act in the public interest to uphold the Rule of Law. However, we did note that she resigned by June 2016 and the government continues to abuse its authority against the entire non-drug healthcare industry. Support our efforts to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Ontarians…for many it is a life or death situation. If you cannot choose your own practitioner and have access to your preferred treatment, especially when drugs don’t work, how can you get and stay healthy and well?
