Take Back Canada – Goderich Free Press

(North Huron) The community of Wingham has reached a breaking point. Residents no longer trust the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) or the Huron Perth Public Health (HPPH) to protect them. From unchecked crime to alleged corruption, the people of Wingham feel abandoned by the very institutions meant to serve them.

Despite this massive failure, Winghamites are uniting to protect the children in their community, expunging drug dealers and squatters, with force when necessary.

OPP: Dereliction of Duty

The OPP’s failure to issue press releases on dangerous offenders has left the community in the dark, allowing criminals to roam freely. Reports of police brutality, drunken drivers, and drug dealers operating without consequence have become all too common.

Catch-and-release justice: The court system is seen as corrupt, with repeat offenders immediately returning to the streets.
Pedophile ring allegations: Whispers of an OPP covered-up pedophile ring, allegedly fueled by illegal drugs, have further eroded trust.
Fear of retaliation: Many residents are too scared to speak out, fearing violent backlash from criminals and police officers who operate with impunity.

HPPH: False Information and Failed Leadership

Huron Perth Public Health has also lost credibility.

False press releases: Amid an alleged measles “outbreak,” HPPH has been accused of spreading misinformation in the past without apology.
Inspectors lying in court: Public health officials have given false testimony, undermining their integrity.

Bylaw Enforcement: Afraid to Act

Local bylaw officers refuse to enforce regulations on Crown land, leaving residents to deal with:

Dog owners allow their dogs to crap on the sidewalks, and by-law enforcement is to afraid to confront the owners.
Squatters and trespassers taking over properties.
Illegal dumping turning neighborhoods into wastelands.
“Junkies” running rampant, with officials too afraid to confront them.

The Only Hope? The Fire Chief

In a system where trust has collapsed, many look to the Fire Chief as the last bastion of leadership—someone who might respect private property rights and “pivot us back to democracy.”

Social Media & Vigilantism

With authorities failing, residents, employers and landlords have turned to Facebook, using comment sections to locate suspected criminals that support/deal with each other and blacklist them. While controversial, it highlights the desperation of a community that no longer believes in its institutions.

Final Thoughts

Wingham is at a crossroads. Without immediate action from the OPP, HPPH, and local officials, the town risks descending into chaos. The people demand accountability—before it’s too late.

Your Rights for Citizen’s Arrest in Wingham #NWO

In Wingham, Ontario, within the Municipality of North Huron, the rules around citizen’s arrests are primarily governed by Canadian federal law, specifically the Criminal Code of Canada. Here’s how a citizen’s arrest might apply in your region and how you could justify your actions:

Legal Basis for a Citizen’s Arrest in Canada

Under Section 494 of the Criminal Code of Canada, a private citizen may arrest someone if:

You find them committing an indictable offense.
- This includes serious crimes such as assault, theft over $5,000, or actions endangering public safety.
A crime is being committed on or in relation to your property.
- Example: If someone is actively damaging or stealing from your property, you may arrest them.
Reasonable grounds exist to believe the person has committed an indictable offense.
- You must have witnessed the crime or have strong evidence supporting the belief.

Additional Conditions for Citizen’s Arrest in Ontario

Immediate Action Required:
The arrest must happen either during the commission of the crime or soon after.
Involvement of Law Enforcement:
After making the arrest, you are legally required to hand the individual over to law enforcement without delay.
Proportionate Force:
Any force used must be reasonable. Excessive force could lead to charges against you.

Legal Defenses to Justify a Citizen’s Arrest

Preventing Immediate Danger:
If the individual’s actions posed an immediate risk to lives (e.g., reckless driving, violent behavior), you can argue that intervention was necessary to prevent harm.
Reasonable Grounds:
Show that you had strong, reasonable grounds to believe the individual was committing a serious offense. Witness testimony, video evidence, or other proof can support this.
Necessity Defense (Common Law):
Claim that your actions were necessary to avoid a greater harm. In situations where lives were endangered, courts are often sympathetic to this defense.
Compliance with Section 494:
Highlight that your actions were in line with the specific requirements of the Criminal Code (e.g., you acted promptly, used reasonable force, and handed the individual to the authorities).

Example Scenario: Reckless Driving Endangering Lives

If you witness someone driving recklessly through Wingham, posing an immediate threat to pedestrians:

Attempt to call 911 and report the incident to the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police).
If it’s impossible to wait for police due to the imminent danger, and you manage to stop the vehicle (e.g., blocking their path), you could perform a citizen’s arrest.
Notify the authorities immediately after detaining the individual.

Potential Risks and Precautions

Legal Risks: If you misjudge the situation or use excessive force, you could face charges such as assault or wrongful confinement.
Civil Liability: The arrested individual could sue you for damages if your actions are deemed excessive or unjustified.
Personal Safety: Confronting someone committing a crime can put you in harm’s way.

Best Course of Action

Always prioritize calling law enforcement first.
Only intervene directly if it is safe to do so and if the situation demands immediate action to prevent harm.
Clearly document the incident (e.g., record video or take witness statements).
