A Blast from our Poetic Past

July 19th, 2010 - For your viewing pleasure we add to our Poetic webpage (click here) the copy of the poem posted on the Arthur webpage regarding the stinky situation still invading the noses of those poor residents of Arthur yet another summer. We have not forgotten about you and will be posting more shortly. We are still in the fight - where are you? Smelly-Welly.com want to know. Email us at smelly-welly@rogers.com to let us know.
July 16th, 2010 - What's Going on with Whitcombe, Tosh, the Warden and the Taj Mahal Library in Puslinch?
Well Webbers, seems I have returned just in time to watch yet another attempt at misappropriation of taxpayer's money by our own dynamic duo (they know who they are) and their "chunky monkey" puppet. This time we wittness an incredible increase of costs (Over 1 Million dollars in a short 6 months - from $1.5 Million to 2.5 Million dollars) with the Puslinch library and the blatant betrayal of trust of one Councillor to another. (Wow - this would make a great Dallas style mini-series - what do you think?) Click here to get all the details.
July 12th, 2010 - I'm Back!
Neither rain, nor sleet nor even a perforated cancerous tumor will keep this old Scot from his appointed task of delivering the TRUTH and JUSTICE to you, the trodden upon taxpayers of Wellington County. Despite having my entire stomach removed, I still have the "guts" to get the job done, much to my adversaries ill fortune. The supposed agreement regarding the taxpayer fraud of $4,000,000 with Winston Churchill blvd is my first step back. Click here for the latest details.

May 17th, 2010 - OBITUARY FOR WELLINGTON COUNTY COUNCIL - Smelly-Welly.com takes great pleasure to announce the sudden death of Wellington County Council (et al) on Thursday April 29th, 2010 at 11:00AM in the Council Chambers at 74 Woolwich Street in Guelph. Due to “influential climate conditions” the internment will have to be delayed until after the remembrance services to be held in Guelph Superior Court, conducted by one of our very capable Judges. At that time friends of the departed will be given the opportunity (under oath) to share their personal experiences in their interactions with the recently departed! Adversaries of the departed will also be given equal opportunities to relate to all assembled, just how influentially impacting each of the departed had on their lives, and the lives of their families! (Nice!)
In view of anticipated desire of the general public, the Superior Courtroom #1 at Woolwich Street Guelph has been earmarked for the memorial services, services in the plural, anticipating the time requirement for those friends, and others, due to expected volume of contributors, wishing to be heard.
Final internment will be at various locations in Ontario, subsequent to the final judgment administered by the Judge, who is appointed by no one!
In lieu of flowers, Smelly-Welly.com requests all interested to make donations to the poor taxpayers of Wellington County; arguably the most negatively impacted by the departed Wellington County Council.
SEE YOU ALL IN COURT! God bless.

May 4th 2010
Ref: Legally supported request to inspect documents Wow Webbers, looks like our “friends” at McCarthy-Tétrault are now sure I’m playing hardball – no kidding!! I’m only starting! On April 9th, 2010 at 10:20 am in the morning they sent me a registered letters stating that they have, pursuant to rule 30.04 of the rules of civil procedure, (you know Webbers, the same rules they have consistently violated in both Superior and Criminal Courts) filed a request to inspect the affidavit of Mr. Clint Martin, referred to in my recent filed defense with the Court office in Guelph.
You and I can understand their “urgent desire” to study the contents of the Affidavit which I have identified in my Defense filing, quoting Section (119) of the Criminal Code i.e. attempted bribery of an official! This evidence, which I will make public now as a website posting, has been shared with “the responsible authorities” for many months now, in support of my claims of municipal corruption in Wellington County Council and Staff. We post, for your understanding, the documentation package received as a request from McCarthy-Tétrault, plus a copy of the handwritten, sealed and witnessed Affidavit of Mr. Clint Martin, former County Councillor and Mayor of Guelph / Eramosa Township. My decision to make this public now, was made or the sole purpose of upholding my pledge to our Webbers, to provide Truth and Transparency, in an appropriately timely manner. We have upheld our pledge to you, by this action!
For the record, I faxed a copy of the Affidavit in question to McCarthy Tétrault, via Mr. Steven Tanner, on Friday 9th of April, in the afternoon. Why, you say? Well Webbers to cost avoid their having to set a date and time for inspection within the time allowed, i.e. 5 days! You’ve probably noticed the co-incidence of timing of delivery of documentation, i.e. always on a Friday P.M. Now I wonder if that has any relationship to the fact that there is little or no chance for the recipient of the request to consult a lawyer! Am I paranoid, or what? (sarcasm!) Boy, they are arrogant! Is this part of the rules of “Civil” Procedure? Webbers, this “instance” will give you some insight into the “weasel practices” of this law firm, but it’s okay. As you know, you are paying, and paying handsomely!
Webbers, in reviewing the letters, it is my opinion that the structure and text are married to produce an intimidating, threatening configuration of prose set out to attempt to intimidate and harass the recipient into confusion and fear. The very young and impetuous Mr. Tanner, has become so transparent to me, (I’m an old soldier–young Tanner, and you are disrespectful.) “If you don’t do this immediately, we will punish you thus” Why do bullies persist in the belief that this works? Mr. Tanner, at 74 years of age, I feel it is my duty to inform you, that, like the dead horse it is, it cannot work ever! You are a silly boy, but I sense you will continue to be pre-programmed from “Big Brother!” What happened to our youth, they have no individualism, or any desire to have?
The consistently rapid deterioration of the Plaintiff’s case, Wilson and Whitcombe, will continue unabated, with the external exposure to the public, of inter-connected peripheral evidence of misdeeds and cover-up attempts by the organization, a.k.a. Wellington County Council (et al) Just consider the list, i.e.

  • Winston Churchill Blvd / Peel Region

  • All Treat / Arthur /M.O.E. / W.C.C.

  • Puslinch Firemen Firings Fraud

  • Little Tract / Green Legacy / Patrick Sage

  • Wellington Terrace Financials / Guelph City

  • Carroll Pond Municipal Drain / Trans X

  • Big Lake Project in Puslinch

  • Puslinch Town Council Issues

  • The Aitkensville Pit Fiasco

  • The Manderson Libel Case Process

  • The Manderson Peace Bond Process

  • Many, fiscal issues, unexplained by Mr. Dyer

  • The land division committee “inequities”

  • The library construction boom “overages”

  • The firing of the County Clerk and Staff

  • The County Bagmen, Mulholland, McInnes, and Prentice

  • Riverbend Park / Pioneer Trail /Reids Heritage Homes / Thomasfield Homes / Tom Krizsan /Puslinch Township

  • The City / County, “Arbitration” Debacle

  • “The Whistler Jaunt” for staff and their families, and paid for by taxpayers

  • and that is not all the list, we will address the individual considerations, during the upcoming trial, from the witness box, under Oath!

Webbers, logic must tell you that, after (10) years and many constructive Court appearances, the fact is, that if my claims were “without foundation,” I would have been long gone, that’s reality. But I’m still here, now that’s reality!
 The website exposure of this municipal corruption has become a regular weekly trend for hitters “from around the world” to come on for regular updates. What are their common interest files – municipal corruption related, toolbar identified, files. Do you think maybe that municipal corruption is a worldwide problem? Give me a break!
To our international hitters we say thank you, and remember; you are not alone! Keep up the good fight for Democratic freedom and remember, liberty is the right to tell people things they don’t want to hear! God bless you all. Never quit!
So now Webbers, I shall proceed to Court with a sound process supported by equally sound evidence. I truly, truly believe, and have great faith, in the ideal that good always, eventually, prevails over evil, despite the “financial imbalance driven” retention of the high priced gunslinger focused lawyers of McCarthy Tétrault, the law firm which personifies the current legal professional focus, (i.e. billable hours). Billable hours at the cost to the Law, human dignity, personal integrity and all paid for by the taxpayer. Is there something wrong with this picture? My grandfather’s observational comments would be, and I quote, “Hoors and comic singers, Wullie, hoors and comic singers!” God bless.

We take a look at the much talked about, but not yet acted upon, decision by the Attorney General's Office to drop all charges against All Treat Farms up in Arthur, thus leaving the residents their to suffer, get sick and possibly much worse, all due to the continued stench, physically and otherwise, being given off at All Treat.

It is with heavy heart that I must report that, due to the unmentioned amount of $144 required for filing, (which will be taken care of once the Ealge (pension) dumps later this week), and the strict adherence protocol, I was unable to file my 18A and 18B Intent to Defend forms for the Trojan offer sent to me by McCarthy Tétrault. I have sent an electronic email with these documents to McCarthy Tétrault on Friday March 18th, attention Mr. Tanner, with the request to confirm receipt of the email (which, despite an reminder email sent on Monday) has been ignored to date. I have attached, for your viewing pleasure, the letter from McCarthy Tétrault with the Amended Statement of Claim along with the Endorsement from Justice Thompson which details his request to remove specific items from our website (which we did within the specified 10 day limit, and then some regarding an item or two which could still be accessed if one know the specific address to type in (thank you Mr. Tanner, for your diligence in this regard)) Click here to view. And further I have attached the 18A (Statement of Defence), 18B (Notice of Intent to Defend) and my researched defence to the Libel suit being brought against me. Click here to view. This is a poor man's justice, when one lacks the funds needed to play the game, one changes the rules and takes it to a new playing field.

January 24th and 25th -Winston Churchill Taxpayer Fraud and What's Going On Dominate the Latest on the Radar Screen -
Webbers, we jump back into the fray after taking some time to absorb the recent events which include the delay until early February of the pre-trial for Arthur (again). Seriously folks, how many times can they play the "something new has come to our attention" card. In addition to this we add several items of interest onto the Winston Churchill page (click here), including a F.O.I. request addressed to C.A.O. ( as interim County Clerk (does this mean he double dips into the payroll pool?)). This is worth a gander as things rapidly come to a head. On the What's Going On page (click here) we take a look at the classic "foot in mouth" comments made by our own Brad Whitcombe in 2009 and, in a related piece, ask the very serious question "What about..." referring to each issue currently on our radar screen. As a recap of all our items under investigation, this page makes for a must read.
January 13th -
Wow, things are starting to pop - We invite you to read our Arthur page (click here) and then to take a stand, not just you residents of the Town of Arthur, currently suffering, but everyone who doesn't want the same thing to happen to their community, by attending the pre-trial being held January 22nd in Criminal Court, Guelph, in front of Justice Norman Douglas. It is imperative that make our point that we are (to quote the movie "Network"), "Mad as hell and we're not going to take it any more!" See you there.
January 5th - Editorial on the Supreme Court Decision of December 22nd, 2009 and its Impact on our ongoing Court actions.
Webbers (et al), I wish to address the aftermath of the controversial interpretations, made in the public forum following the release on Friday, December 18th, 2009 of Justice William Hourigan’s endorsement, related to the C.C.L.A.’s Intervention Motion, heard, for a full day, in Guelph Superior Court on Monday, 14th of December, 2009. Click here for details.
Much has been said in the local press related to the Hearing itself and, of course, the final endorsement (decision) of Justice William Hourigan (click here to read). We all must understand, in the absence of official transcripts, (which are now available), the press reported happenings were the personal interpretations of the attending press reporter who will, I believe, admit to the non-recordance of critical statements made in Court, understandably glossed over as unimportant or “too hot” to report.
Up until Tuesday, December 22nd 2009, journalists, reporters, newspaper editors and even bloggers like myself, were hamstrung by our antiquated, and much out of date, libel laws. On the 22nd of December 2009 the Supreme Court of Canada voted by a 9-0 Court decision, that drastic changes to the libel law, driving “public interest” reporting by the media, inclusive of citizen bloggers etc, had to be made! And they did just that!
The impact of this monumental decision is “timely” for my libel case before the Courts, and all of the peripheral related legal matters, which are arguably, related, i.e. Libel charges, Motions, Countermotions to Libel charges etc, etc. Enough to make McCarthy Tétrault (et al) drool in anticipation of the enhanced opportunity to greatly expand their ability to increase their billable hours, at the 100% cost to the Taxpayers, of course, only if the same Taxpayers remain publicly apathetic to the fact that $500,000 (that’s half a million dollars folks) worth of legal services have been invoiced to date on Wellington County Council pertaining to these matters, civil and criminal against myself, Mr. Bill Manderson! How much has been paid is available through the submission of a formally funded Freedom of Information request.
This will be formally submitted, building on our last recorded request, which identified 11(eleven) pages of financial invoiced information up to September 2009. This is all recorded on our website on the Libel Suit page (click here). We believe it’s worth a look Webbers. You  will observe from the information posted that my County interactory is non other that the County Clerk of the day, Ms. Donna Van Wyck. You remember her, she was the young lady who was presented with her 20 year long service award one week, then one week later was unceremoniously fired from her senior staff position, for apparently no reason, as no reason has been given to date by the County Warden or C.A.O. Mr. Scott Wilson, co-incidentally one of the 2 (two) listed plaintiffs in our actions and also co-incidentally now handling the responsibilities and duties of County Clerk in addition to his own. Hmmm? Now there’s a strange thing, what do you think Webbers? Smelly-Welly indeed!
I am, as I have said many times, an unashamed “man of faith” who has been along the way, these past 10 (ten) years a grateful recipient of many “candies,” which just seem to fall from nowhere into my lap. I have become unquestionable less inclined to spend too much time on analyzing – why? I just accept the “candie” as given and, I believe, apply the “candie” to the process as intended by the “candie giver.” If you don’t understand the true meaning of faith, don’t try to analysis it, it will drive you nuts! Being nuts is not one of my attributes, but, of course, I have been accused accordingly. I would ask, “Now, who is nuts now?” (Cat got your tongue?)
Well Webbers, it’s back to the drawing board for all of the legal matters before the Courts, none having been a trial. The Supreme Court decision to amend the libel laws on the Statute Books, as laid out in the 9-0 decision by the Honourable Chief Justice Beverly McLachlin (Scots wummin!) clearly identifies the requirement to re-construct all of the libel/defamation currently before the Courts, civil and criminal. By association, it would be totally irresponsible to spend any more of the Taxpayers money to gain what? Taxpayers in this issue are precisely that – payers! Either outcome yields them the same dollar value – 0! Any logical person would ask, “If this is correct, as it appears to be, why have our elected officials “dumped” this financial burden upon us? We pay the full shot for $0 return? Why are we doing this?” Bravo, Bravo, Bravo! Eureka – Now you do get it!
Your doing this to protect your long time, consistently productive, criminal public servants from exposure by me! No arrogance on my part folks, but kind of silly, leaning towards stupidity on your part folks – Sorry, it’s as simple as that, you have created your own “Frankenstein monster.” Eureka revelation. Remember, Liberty is having the right to tell people things they don’t want to hear!”
“Ah, duh, can this be true?” you say. Go figure – Half a million dollars and counting!! The Mercury opinion column is very accurate in its statement “The Taxpayers need to know the costs, and more importantly – Why!” No kidding, go figure!
Oh – Happy new year, your year of awakening – 2010, with more to come! God bless.

December 11, 2009 - A Tribute to Mr. Al Ferris, a True Friend of the Riverbend Legal Group
Oh, Webbers, life can be so cruel, but also so rewarding! I was shocked to read on Scott Tracey's website that our "old friend, Al Ferris" had passed away on Tuesday December 8th 2009. This was a double shock to me as I had, at noon on Tuesday, "bumped" into Al as he exited the Sleeman Centre after attending a Board Meeting of which he was a "give of his time" member. This was the character of this good man - giving! Al covered, for the Mercury, the early active days of the R.L.G.'s road to Justice, and reported, with honesty, our situation in Riverbend Park, and with honesty he interviewed with a warmth that made our goup of seniors trust in this gentle and compassionate man!
Alan, we will never forget you, for your sensitivity, courtesy, kindness and compassion. From a personal perspective, considering the Tuesday timing of events, selfishly I tell myself, that I was honoured to have shared with Al, 30 minutes of his last day with us. We swung right into the "current situation" for us, which could not have happened with such impact were it not for Al's reporting, even from attendance at many of our emotional meetings. This was the dedication and sense of civic caring, this good human being brought to all who knew him. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to Al's family, which I know from our conversations, that he was proud of and loved, as the good father and husband he was! We lost a good friend today, and Guelph lost a good, good man!
Rest in peace Al, tell God all your stories, and enrich him, as you did all of us! Goodbye old friend! You cared and you were important to many!! God bless - Bill
December 10th, 2009 - Disgraceful Display by Drunk Councillor Sheds Light on the Moral Character of Wellington County Council
Reporting on one of the most disgraceful events I have ever had to witness, a blatant display of arrogance and stupidity, coupled with alcohol induced sense of invulnerablity and a desperate need to intimadate. Its understandable to make mistakes and nobody expects perfection but when someone assumes the responsibility of a public official such as a County Councillor or Mayor, one of those responsibilities is to keep your emotions in check and to react calmly and rationally and above all, maintain a professional attitude in keeping with the position. In this case the person in question (and others) behaved in a manner that put all that to shame. Click here to read all about this truly disgusting and disgraceful event. I have to ask you - is this a person we want as a County Councillor? And what are we going to do about it?
December 9th, 2009 - Continuing the Saga of the Bagmen of Wellington County
We continue our look into the Bagmen of Wellington County and how the process, originated many years ago by Councillor Archie MacRobbie and a select band of fellow like-minded individuals whose only interest was their own greed and who did not care who would be hurt by their actions, continues to this day. Click here for more details.
December 8th, 2009 - Another Chapter in Municipal Corruption Opens...
Hello Webbers and welcome back. As the countdown continues to our own D-Day, we open yet another chapter in the ongoing series on the Municipal Corruption in Wellington County Council (et al). In this chapter we take note of the decision taken on November 23rd, 2009 to increase the number of Architectural firms bidding of projects by 100%, that's right, its now up to 2 firms, and believe it or not the losing firm still gets $5,000 of your money just for participating. I am definitely not in the right line of work. To explain further we go on to discuss the history of the Sage family rape and the Green Legacy project and how the Ventin is smack in the middle of it. If this doesn't enrage and offend you, check your pulse, you may be dead. Click here for all the details.

November 13th - Lest We Forget.
Remembrance
. There is some corner in some “foreign field” that is forever, England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, France, Holland, Denmark, Belgium, Norway, Russia, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Iceland, Greenland, Yugoslavia, Greece, Israel, United States, Australia, New Zealand, India, South Africa, Canada and some others on “our side.” We salute you all and thank you for “doing what you did!” We can only repay you by our promise – We will never, ever forget! To those who chose the “other side,” we would way “Come back into the family of human beings, with penalty or guilt after the passing of time period of 70 years, it is time to move on, but never forget how close we came, all of us, to succumbing to evil which could destroy our civilization and our hopes and plans for a “better world” to pass onto future generations! Each year, we must continue to remember those who sacrificed and are still today, sacrificing their lives for us by putting themselves in harm’s way to secure democracy in the world. It beats the “other option” as we all know! Smelly-Welly.com urges all of you to pay your respect and wear the poppy, not just on November 11 but after that, with undying gratitude – “Lest we forget!” We observe and understand the 2 minutes of silence on Remembrance Day but we should continue to mark this occasion every time we enjoy the freedoms that they fought and died for. As another country so aptly put it – “Never Forget!!”
God Bless.
