Update: Holy shiites Batman! I didn't realize there were so many grammatical errors in this post. It's been rewritten to clarify some points and events. Some links were added. This is a tranistion post that asks readers to put theirselves in a particular situation while attempting to explain a logical rationale for a concept - of why a person may consider converting to Islam and how Islamic dogma may interfere with our every day lives and is based on true events.
Let the propaganda begin...Rocco Galati a lawyer from some of the alleged terrorists has gone on
record with CTV stating that his clients are the sons of some up standing persons in the community - and a medical student no doubt! Wow! That certainly qualifies his clients as automatically exempt from Canadian law - as if this strata of society does nothing wrong.
I know this attitude within the Muslims community. They've used it quite often. "We are doctors and engineers etc., so there is nothing wrong with us, we're perfect". Get over it people - this is part of the propaganda that will be used to try to win over Liberals and the NDP supporters.
Well, well, well McMaster University here in Hamilton has spawned an alleged terrorist from its arrogant medical program. I wonder if he was studying psychiatry? Am I feeling contempt? You betcha - if you keep reading you find where my edge comes from.
If the terror suspect had the ability to influence his fellow med students by giving them mis-information - ie Islam is the religion of Peace like I've heard parroted so many times, it would explain the discriminatory behavior of at least one of Hamilton's physicians.
So here's the deal.
The example is from Dr. Christine Adam's, a St. Joseph Hospital resident of psychiatry and student from McMaster. Her discriminatory attitude towards individuals who have come out of the propaganda ridden Islamic community reared its nefarious head in the way she practices medicine.
Ok, so you’re probably wondering what does this doctor have to do with terrorism?
I’m going to tell you. It's a different kind of terrorism as this physician was either influenced by her fellow classmates or simply did not pay attention to current events and how they may effect her patients. I'm trying to be brief as possible even though all of this would better be described better in a book with chapters and all that stuff.
There are readers that have been following my blog for some time and may have taken the time to attempt to read my story on my conversion to Islam – it started off called ‘My Journey into Conversion’ – in various parts and posted at HR.
If you read the link to the declassified documents from CSIS in the terror cell post earlier - you'll notice that Islamists like to attract converts (or reverts as some say). Some media reports highlight male converts but over-look the women converts. It’s the women that provide much of the Islamic 'schooling' or teaching to their children. (Ershad Manji - please pay attention).
Now imagine that you've been indoctrinated with Islamic dogma about everything you do - how you wash, eat, sleep, speak, have sex etc., etc. and after a number of years you will have found that you have been slowly accepting some pretty intense religious teaching - to the point that you are explaining away human rights abuses of Hamas and the Taliban for example.
Once you get over this, imagine now that you are slowly removing your Canadian Constitutional rights - little by little - by rejecting Canadian law and assuming Islamic law as well as the cultural prejudices that are brought from various countries concentrated into your small community.
The message is the same.
Islam is perfect as are praying Muslims (the more covered you are as a woman - the better it is for you and Allah) and some will say that Islamic law is supreme - not the Canadian Constitution. The only thing the Canadian Constitution is useful for is to use it to Islam’s advantage. (And if the Constitution were complied with in Ontario and you benefitted from equal protection of the law - you wouldn't have accepted the militancy of Islam).
Eventually your freedom of opinion and free speech is replaced with accusations of fitna (mischief) and lack of adhab (Islamic manners). If you do this, you’re not a 'good' Muslim and therefore, not pious. Therefore, you must be a hypocrite or a Jew or paid by Jews (as viewed by your new Islamic family).
Now, you have to ignore that your good friends are allowing their husbands to beat them or to ignore that some men in the community beat and rape their wives to the point it’s ignored and the mosque refuses to deal with it. And women are denied services that they would otherwise receive outside of the community. You fight with these men because of their blatant contempt and oppression of the women. The same scenario is repeated in your life as you fight the ghosts of familial abuse.
The women - those converts who've given up Canadian law for Islamic law - are now agreeing with them. Men who can’t even look women in the eye and don’t question the men who are belligerent and discriminate against their own women – are studying psychiatry at your local university. You become mistrustful of them as you are concerned that they will not accept the Canadian feminine point of view in their medicine practice.
Imagine that, within two years that you made your 'political decision' to convert that you realize the community was more Islamo-fascist, discriminatory and oppressive than the country you live in is - but it's getting worse week by week because the local University has just allowed another Islamic extremist to leave their country of origin and work for them in engineering or some other 'professional' field. You fight with these Islamic mysogynists and your told to 'watch what you say'. Within the time you converted you’ve met the wife of a known al Qaeda operative and other extreme wrong-headed individuals.
You decide that the religious indoctrination is going beyond the tolerant and plural society you once prided yourself in. As a result of the indoctrination of others, intolerant and unreasonable Islamic discourse ends up as a religious complaint against you in your place of work! The Ontario Human Rights Commission finds the company that allowed the co-worker to use Islam as an issue in the work environment liable of a human rights violation under the Ontario Code and updates their
Human Rights at Work publication. (See link to the left - letter from OHRC to follow)
At down time you chat to a fellow Muslim over seas who knows of Osama bin Laden and has met his brothers. You ask him to explain a hadith you have just read on killing Jews you found on a website that was referred to you by a doctor at a talk at your local university. The guy from Saudia tells you that hadith is about a war that will involve many Muslims believing in a false prophet and that there will be a war much like WWII. You ask if that ‘false prophet’ is Osama bin Laden. He asks you if you believe in the hadith. When you say 'NO' your Islam is questioned and you’re told you
'should watch what you say'.
You try leaving the years of indoctrination and friendship and removed yourself from the community but not before your subjected to non-stop 9/11 conspiracy theories by a local pathologist at a well known hospital - an upstanding doctor - a professional - that's into spreading the conspiracy theory that Israelis orchestrated the 9/11 attacks. You find out later from a sleuth friend that the same conspiracy theories are found on white supremacist websites.
When you leave the community it's not easy - it's actually very difficult - but there are no supports in the community. It takes you months to slowly remove the hijab from your head, in various stages, because the psychology of having worn a veil for so long will not permit you to remove it quickly because it has become a
part of your body.
Ok, by this time your a little screwed up and decide to move back to your hometown Windsor in 2003 to be around your dysfunctional family. You left there in 1996 because the boyfriend you had was
involved in accident fraud and the RCMP tells you that if they find out you were talking to them they would kill you. Back then you were being followed and stalked on the phone with incessant phone calls and hang-ups.
After moving back you unwisely go back to the same doctor that sexually assaulted you in 1996 after taking advantage of your vulnerability due to the above circumstances. Attending an appointment with that doctor you see that old boyfriend the RCMP told you to be aware of is sitting in this doctor's office with his new wife and kids. He listens to you update your file with the nurse with your new address. He shows up in front of your new apartment or around the area three times. You vow if he shows up again you will call the Windsor Police services and let them know you are intimidated.
You later take a temporary job at the University of Windsor's Engineering department and meet up with another old beau - the one that got in an auto accident with six RCMP officers, whose license was suspended but ended up going to jail anyway for driving under suspension and
then, got into another accident and caught. He tried to get you to lie for him to say he wasn't driving his car like his Iraqi friends did but you didn't "love" him that much. He forgot to consider that the woman whose car he hit - had watched him do it.
In 1997, he told you he was fund raising for an outlawed organization in the United States but was perfectly legal for him to do with his Iraqi friends in Canada - for
years. He tells you that he attended a secret meeting in New York because his fundraising activities were illegal in the U.S. - and meeting clandestinely. The fundraising was for the 'orphans' of suicide bombers in Palestine and Lebanon. You remember that the pamphlets had gruesome pictures of dead bodies and that his friends would go door to door within the Iraqi Muslim community asking for donations. Many of them outright refused because they knew what they were up to.
In any case, in the summer of 2004, he shows up next to you while your putting cream into your coffee at the University's cafeteria. He walks you across campus but doesn't let you go past him unless you give him your phone number because, he says, he's not happy in his arranged marraige. You tell him if he doesn't let you pass by him because he is now blocking your passage, that you'll call campus police. He lets you go but calls your work and visiting the office.
Your supervisor tells you to call campus police but after you do so, removes you from the assignment the next day. Because of her decision you now have no job. You just lost another job because you stood up for your rights under the Ontario Human Rights Code against discrimination because of a disability, harassment and sexual harassment and it turns out, the principal of the office is also a professor at the University. The Ontario Human Rights Commission in 2006 after a complaint was launched sent you a letter to let you know that they will be investigating three Windsor companies - including the University of Windsor under section 11 of the Ontario Human Rights Code.
You’re told by security officials to call your local police if there are any problems with these guys. You call the local police and tell them the situation and the ignorant detective in their 'sex crimes' unit tells you that these guys "still have the hots for you" and he’s not going to take a report. You think to yourself what an ignorant sod.
After an event in the paper, you eventually end up speaking to a police officer that is one of three in the department handling local terrorist threats. You tell him you would testify in a particular case and he tells you he appreciates that. He wants you to speak to his partner but he is too busy to call you back. Years later you hear on the news that he was shot in the line of duty by two 18-year-old thugs selling crack.
To make a long story shorter, you decide to take a shelter worker's advice to put your stuff in storage, to "be homeless" and move to Hamilton into one of their woman's shelters – a move you’ll later recognize as the worst advice you’ve ever taken. The emergency room psychiatrist you’ve seen months before for post traumatic stress, anxiety and depression, gives you a script for Remeron - an anti-depressant - but doesn't listen to your concerns that it has caused adverse reactions with you the year before.
After a couple of days in Interval House in Hamilton, the staff has allowed the shelter to become out of control as parents and children were screetching in unison. Kids three years old are throwing glass cups at other residents hitting them in the face. The rooms were designed so shoddy you can her your neighbour constantly screaming at her kids, fart and talk on their cell phone - every day.
Some of the older kids are reacting to their confinement and lack of services provided by the shelter. Their mum is crying because they can't handle their kids and others are screaming at them - repeatedly. You call children’s aid because the shelter staff is not providing psychological and parenting supports for the kids or the mums.
One day, you have a reaction to the Remeron - intense sleep for prolonged hours and irritability but shelter staff - too incompetent to know what to do in these cases - ignore your concerns about an adverse drug reaction. When a young resident from Kitchener arrived days earlier other residents had their rooms broken into. You wonder if this young resident slipped you something during supper hour because she sat by you while you were passed out on the couch for five hours while the staff of the shelter did nothing.
You end up getting kicked out of the shelter without warning and could glean from the shelter staff it was because you called C.A.S on the shelter. The shelter kept your property - everything you owned - against your will and protests and with the complicity of an officer from the Hamilton Police services.
Months later after your own investigation you find that the local CAS was violating their own laws, regulations and mandate along with a court decision on violating the Charter as well as acting on an assumed idea from a non-qualified opinion of what post traumatic stress is - discrimination based on perception - that was passed to them from shelter staff. What other defense would a badly run woman's shelter need as long as they can blame their incompetencies and illegal acts but on someone they are slandering as mad?
Blah blah blah etc etc., etc., you end up in the St. Joseph's emergency psychiatry because you want to die and spew the last ten-year's history. You find out after the fact that Dr. Christine Adam of St. Joe’s EPT is so totally ignorant of current events and is in total disbelief that an ex-Islamic convert could meet the wife of an al Qaeda operative in such a small community and ignores a serious drug reaction.
She instead diagnoses a more serious illness that has no scientific or legal basis – all based on personal health information that was collected from another woman’s shelter in Hamilton called Mary’s Place – run by former prostitutes, wanna be non-qualified clinicians, staff identifying themselves illegally as social workers and wanna be corrections workers. This isn’t a health care facility but they are fraudulently acting as if they were and the City of Hamilton is sanctioning it.
Months later after your own extensive investigation, the manager tells you they are above the law and don’t have to follow any of Ontario’s laws. This is confirmed by the Christian Brother that runs the shelter for the Good Shepherd centers in the City who receives tons of money from the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Social and Community Services - all for their ‘illegal’ services.
From your own investigation that was plagued by interference and obstruction, you find out that these medical 'professionals' violated every legal rule they were supposed to comply with including consent and disclosure laws because they didn't believe a word you said. A nurse from St. Joe’s calls your brother asking if you actually went to the University Windsor and if you really have a son because, I guess this is how they are trained at McMaster – don’t believe a word their patient’s tell them.
Treatment for emotional trauma is certainly a big difference in Hamilton compared to other centres like Windsor or London if you went in with a physical medical condition. You read by evidence of clinical records that Dr. Adam's was so determined to make a diagnosis she ignored your complaint about the adverse drug reaction to Remeron because she didn’t document it on purpose in the clinical records but she did document that your story about your Islamic adventure as ‘bizarre’.
You also find out during your investigation that the hospital passed on inaccurate and fraudulent information to the woman's shelter your staying at and the shelter gives up your bed and leaves you homeless - again! Not only that, they steal your property – in particular your car and you’re forced to go to the police to get your car back!
The following year after more investigation and a foray into the police complaints process you have a withdrawal reaction to Celexa. Months later after being refused treatment by Dr. Ali Hersi of Hamilton General Hospital because you refused to go to St. Joseph's which is within your legal right to do so, you discover by clinical records the worst criminal act you have seen so far from Hamilton's doctors is that Dr. Ali Hersi crossed out the clinical information that documented you were having withdrawal reactions from the Celexa and wrote that you were
NOT having suicidal ideation that were clearly documented by triage nurses and he was clearly told by you as well from your clinical records you found out he totally fabricated it with a diagnosis without you there because you left at his
refusal to treat you. Dr. Hersi's refusal to simply prescribe you more Celexa because you had no family doctor as Dr. Namburi your family doctor cancelled your medical services without telling you.
In your panic that Dr. Hersi caused by his refusal to treat you, you took the remaining Clonazapam you had with you because your pharmacist told you to bring it so the hospital would believe that you had been prescribed the meds. As you swallowed the pills, Dr. Hersi watched and later laughed - telling you the pills wouldn't kill you. You had to call an ambulance yourself to take you to another hospital. You wonder how this could happen when hospitals in Windsor and London are run so well?
You try to get the Hamilton police service to take a report against Dr. Hersi for fraud and assault but they just laugh at you because they assume "your mentally ill" for taking all those pills and don't have protections under the Constitution nor the Ontario Human Rights Code. The police standards branch – in particular Staff Sergeant Jack Corruzzi - frustrates and interferes with a complaint and then writes letters containing pure BS –
due to a lack of understanding this post.
After filing complaint with Dr. Krysmanytch the Hamilton General Emergency room director you find out that he doesn't understand his legal obligations and refuses to explain them to Dr. Hersi. This is before you got a copy of the clinical records to see that facts were crossed out and clinical documentation was fabricated.
On more investigation - remember the hospitals are not co-operating in giving you your clinical records. In one situation the records clerk tries to hide the evidence by putting the clinical records that document Dr. Adam asked Marcia Dinsmore an RN to get "collateral information" from your brother and Mary's Place staff. You trusted that she would give you all the records but after you asked to see the whole file you find that she did not photocopy them all.
You speak to your brother about what Ms. Dinsmore asked him and you find out she told your brother "they want to help you" but they didn’t as they ended up denying you medical services and put you in greater harm. At the time, you had to travel back to Windsor to get medical help – not one but three times. The last time was after you rationalized yourself out of taking the remainder of those morphine pills you had in the trunk of your car you were forced to sleep in.
The nurse and physicians at Hotel Dieu in Windsor were so professional and treated you with dignity, something that Hamilton's hospitals don't have (so stay away from them if you are a visitor and go to Burlington) - that you breathed a sigh of relief. You explained to the nurse what had happened in Hamilton and her comment to you was
"what you went through would make anyone suicidal". The nurse is now a witness to psychiatric assault by Hamilton physicians - in particular those physicians who are they to help not destroy.
Before you went to Windsor you had to sleep in your car because of an appointment the next day. You wouldn’t have had to sleep in your car (after you had to go to police to get it back) if those women’s shelters weren't so appallingly disgusting in their actions all because of their discriminatory attitudes. They, along with Dr. Adams and medical staff at St. Joseph’s hospital made you homeless because of how they view individuals who are in distress.
And you wonder how many people have died because of the nefarious attitudes of the medical staff at St. Joe’s hospital towards individuals experiencing suicidal ideation from adverse drug reactions?
You’ve never seen medicine practiced anywhere like this in Ontario and you wonder what kind of City you moved to. Months later a woman who runs a support group for survivors of ritual abuse in Thunder Bay tells you to “get the hell out of Hamilton” because of her rationale. You think you really lost it if you attempt to even contemplate her theory because it had something to do with Masons...
By this time you're very aware of a developed paranoia that was created by Hamilton's support services. You decide that St. Joe’s outpatient isn't the best medicine and remove yourself after they passed your name on for research without your consent – they did so even after they knew you had serious concerns about their prior consent abuses. To show their ethics and professionalism, they chose to ignore them over and over and over again. The director of ethics research tells you that what they did was illegal and managed to get the doctor to apologize - in writing. He was retired shortly after their risk manager indignantly told you St. Joe's does "nothing illegal" or "anything wrong".
Recently, to prove the disrespect for the rule of law in Ontario, an ‘official’ with the Ontario Privacy Commission tells you that the Commission won’t investigate the shelters and the hospital because section
18 (7) of the Personal Health Information Protection Act doesn’t exist.
Huh?!!
More abuse towards individuals with non-visible disabilities by agents of the Crown? She refuses to return your evidence and refuses to put her refusal in writing.
You write to the Commissioner and copy the Minister of the Attorney General hoping that perhaps he will replace the Commissioner and charge under the Criminal Code of Canada, the staff that you named, including the Registrar for not enforcing the Act and for blatantly refusing to follow Supreme Court decisions on medical records because of their total ignorance of the law. It would be wishful thinking if they were charged for obstructing justice and breach of trust under the Criminal Code of Canada - this is Ontario after all.
Sound like the movie Crash? You were asked to imagine a day, week, month or years being a person whose weaknesses were exploited to the point of actually causing if not permanently creating, serious mental illness because of bad medicine practiced in Hamilton. It's the way
not to do it if you actually want to help someone and have no other agenda.
That was the reality of HR not too long ago.
Now, I am taking Hanna Gartner's advice and removing myself slowly from the anti-depressants so I can avoid a reaction like I had with the Celexa. And no Hanna, I haven't gotten that job at a law firm yet but I did stop smoking which I have found caused bad reactions with the meds. Once I left the care of those Hamilton doctor's and clinicians that were in part mentioned above and removed myself for their scripts I slowly started to rehabilitate and get back to normal.
Before started blogging I passed along my desire to tell my story online with a friend that helped me work out the Islamic indoctrination part and who also happens to work for CSIS. I got more support from him than I ever got from the idiots in Hamilton's health abuse system. I told him about my Hamilton adventure. He thinks I have the Chinese curse (you know – the one about being cursed with an interesting life?) and reiterated to me what they did was illegal.
It’s then you realize the lack of respect for the rule of law and lack of law's enforcement that enables individuals to enjoy equal protection under health laws, privacy laws, human rights laws etc., and is actually the political rationale why you converted to Islam in the first place. Then, in a momentary lap of judgement, a brain drift pops into your heald and you wonder if living in a cave in Afghanistan would be half as stressful as living in Ontario that consistently hands over legal responsibilities to organizations that have no respect or understanding for the rule of law as their denial of legal rights still continue to oppress the oppressed? Then you give your head a shake and realize that there is something to fight for. Your democracy.
