ZGram - Where Truth is Destiny:  Now More Than Ever!

May 29, 2003

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

Paul Fromm, Director of Canada First Immigration Reform Committee, 
wants you to know the following:

[START]

Dear Immigration Reformer:

	In February, when Ernst Zundel was deported from the U.S. to 
Canada, our fiery Wayne Newton look-alike Denis Coderre stuck his 
Trudeauesque gunfighter pose and promised he'd take care of those 
abusing or misusing our immigration system.

"Just watch me," he challenged.

Well, we're watching. What do we see? A fanatical effort to deport 
Ernst Zundel, a 64-year old publisher who has never been convicted of 
a crime in Canada. He remains in jail through the malice of Coderre's 
department who, against all logic and history, insist this German 
pacifist is some sort of violent terrorist and threat to national 
security.

	Meanwhile, Russian gangster Mark Bilalov is just one more 
criminal we've welcomed into our midst. This violent criminal and 
home invasion artist is wanted on four warrants, all flagging him as 
"armed and dangerous." He was convicted of assault.

A clownish immigration spokesthingy offered the lame excuse: "Maybe 
he didn't tell us he had a criminal record."

Mr. Coderre, we're watching. We see a corrupt, uncaring department 
that fails to protect Canadians, that stands on guard for special 
prvileged minorities, not for the Canadian Majority. In Coderre's 
Canada, it's violent criminals in; thinkers and writers, out!

Toronto Sun, May 28

A top holdup squad cop is furious that a man, arrested this week in 
connection with a brutal home invasion, was recently granted Canadian 
citizenship despite being wanted on four outstanding warrants. 

When the Toronto Police holdup squad arrested the man Monday, "he 
just  laughed at us," Det.-Sgt. Wilf Townley told The Toronto Sun 
yesterday. "He said  we couldn't touch him because he was now a 
Canadian citizen." 

Townley said he was stunned yesterday by an Immigration Canada 
official's  response after he told her the man had four outstanding 
arrest warrants issued  by Toronto and York Regional police several 
months before he became a Canadian  in April. Each alert warned he 
was potentially "armed and dangerous." 

"She said, 'Maybe he didn't tell us he had a criminal record,'" he 
said. "God  help us!" 

The immigration official said a check of the man's status on the 
Canadian  Police Intelligence Computer (CPIC) showed only two charges 
laid since his  arrival here in 1997, Townley said. Those cases, 
alleging theft and fraud, "were  withdrawn." 

But the detective's own CPIC check quickly showed "this guy is 
flagged  everywhere for crime." 

The man was convicted last year in Newmarket for assault and uttering 
a death  threat. The probation terms prohibited him from possessing 
guns for five years  and from driving, or even sitting, in the 
driver's seat of a car. 

Both before and after that conviction, police issued warrants 
accusing the  Russian native of breaching his court-ordered release 
conditions from the  Newmarket case, Townley said. But he had no 
fixed address. 

A second suspect in the home invasion was wanted in connection with a 
deportation order. 

On May 7, two men burst into a jeweller's home, beat him with a 
weightlifter's dumbbell so badly that he needed 30 staples to close 
his head  wounds, Det. Ron Clifford said. "He was tortured to give 
the combination to his  store's alarm and give up the keys to the 
store on Lake Shore Blvd." 

Mark Bilalov, 26, of no fixed address, who recently became a Canadian 
citizen, and Sergey Pashkurlatov, 32, are each charged with 
robbery-home  invasion and forcible confinement. They appear in court 
today.
