PLAINTIFFS:
Please be advised if this frivolous, vexatious, beyond asinine lawsuit goes to trial you will find it increasingly difficult to remain anonymous by hiding behind Counselor Trachtenberg. Please consider the following:
(1) Shortly I will be serving your attorney of record an affidavit. It will contain detailed written interrogatories for each of you. These are questions Counselor Trachtenberg will be obliged to ask and provide me with documented responses. They will be admissible as evidence in court
Further, if any of you have been involved in civil proceedings such as messy divorces or small claims judgments, these files are accessible at Winnipeg's Provincial Law Courts Building for photocopying and re-production by the mainstream media and on the internet. The same is true for criminal matters
Whether my questions to Counselor Trachtenberg and his written responses can be posted on the internet is a grey area in Canadian jurisprudence. Therefore, I will be seeking a legal opinion. If I can I will!
(2) In making these allegations of defamation which impugn my character and which I view very, very seriously - please remember the burden of proof falls on YOU!
(3) In Canada, defamation trials are before a Judge and Jury of 12. Each of you will be subpoeaned and cross-examined under oath at trial. These proceeding will undoubtedly be reported in the mainstream media and on the internet
(4) The words in the allegedly defamatory petition launched on www.CyberSmokeSignals.com (January, 2004) were written by Winnipeg Metis Legal Aid lawyer Lionel R.R.Chartrand who at the time:
(i) Had publicly agreed (pro bono) to serve as CyberSmokeSignals' General Legal Counsel
(ii) Counselor Murray N. Trachtenberg is more than aware sufficient black print (term used by the judiciary to describe written admissible evidence) exists in e-mail transmissions from Mr. Lionel Chartrand to CSS.com to clearly demonstrate "beyond a preponderance of doubt" (standard of proof required in civil cases for a finding a guilty verdict):
Lionel R. R. Chartrand
President
Winnipeg Aboriginal Council Inc.
Lawyer, Manitoba Legal Aid
(lich@legalaid.mb.ca; lrc@shaw.ca)
He too will be subpoeaned to testify under oath at any defamation trial
(5) While still on the subject of black print, last year Counselor Trachtenberg filed a Motion to compel me to turn over to him all MMF related documents in my possession. Unfortunately, I lost and had to relinquish 1,572 pages. When I expressed my concern to presiding Justice Madam Deborah McCawley they could "mysteriously go missing" or be otherwise shredded, My Lady advised they could be subpoeaned at trial so, therefore, I should carefully catalogue each item surrendered
Suffice it to say at this time, the material is most embarrassing to the Plaintiffs and the Manitoba Metis Federation Federation!
(6)
Mr. Ron Chartrand
MMF Vice-President
Winnipeg Region
Mr. Ron Chartrand was the only Federation Provincial Board of Directors Member who had the wisdom and presence of mind not to sign on as a Plaintiff. He will be subpoeaned at trial and asked the easiest question - Why?
During 2005, Plaintiffs Bonnie McIntyre and Richard DeLaronde signed Notices of Discontinuance with Counselor Trachtenberg thereby withdrawing from the lawsuit. However, YOUR Amended Statement of Claim registered with the courts by Mr. Trachtenberg on May 9, 2006 still lists them as litigants. Therefore, I am entitled to continue to refer to them as Plaintiffs until such time as he again revises the Statement of Claim. Each Member of the MMF's Provincial Board of Directors was allegedly defamed except for these three. How is that possible?
Like Mr. Ron Chartrand, Bonnie McIntyre and Richard DeLaronde will also be subpoeaned at trial and asked - Why did you withdraw?
(7) In the June 29, 2006 MMF election, Plaintiff Montgomery very wisely chose not to run for the Provincial Board of Directors. Plaintiff Flett was defeated. Both continue to have Counselor Trachtenberg's legal fees paid from public funds
(8) When I win (and I will), the courts will be asked to order each of you to pay my legal costs. I will also seek professional advice about launching separate litigation against each of you
(9) Forthwith, I strongly recommend each Plaintiff for their mutual protection discuss this posting with Counselor Trachtenberg. I look forward to meeting you in The Manitoba Court of Queen's Bench. Enjoy your Annual General Assembly currently underway in Winnipeg
Please govern yourselves accordingly Plaintiffs!
Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

- HIS intent to write a petition
- A copy of HIS petition was posted verbatim on www.CyberSmokeSignals.com
- Black print clearly showing Lionel Chartrand's permission to post it
- No evidence whatsoever HE at any time requested it be removed from CSS.com
- HE subsequently entered into a retainer contract with the MMF to provide legal advice on Aboriginal rights
Why have you not named Lionel Chartrand as a Co-Defendant Mr. Trachtenberg? Are there possible conflicts of interest?
