00:00:00.000 David Lindsay, a man who has been standing up for Canadians rights and freedoms for the past 30 years, David is the co founder of clear short for common law education and rights, and he teaches a correct understanding and application of common law.

00:00:39.000 And as a result, I did research from Dalhousie, all the way to Victoria, Osgood Hall, every major law library in Winnipeg, in Canada, including Winnipeg, where I was living at the time, and came up with a detailed analysis of how that was to work.
00:00:55.640 And I wrote basically the first book in Canada that's been referenced on that. Here's the book, it's called the annotated charging procedure in Canada. And what annotated means is it's provided with case law and authorities.
00:01:09.520 I'll just show you. Here's a sample of some of the case law, we got 130 plus case law and authorities to back it up everything through every step of the procedure through here. The other thing I have in our book is the entire judicial review procedure that you can go through. So if you have to go to a higher court to force them to do it, the procedure is there.
00:01:31.160 I've done that successfully, excuse me, twice now, once in Ottawa and once out west. And I've had superior court judges forced the JP to issue a summons because he never did it.
00:01:43.020 There's a variety of tricks they play that we go into detail in our book to watch out for, to make sure that the judge does issue a summons for these people that have been criminally charged.
00:01:53.480 And it's important because you don't want to be standing before a judge and something like that gets said, and you don't know how to answer and how to respond.
00:01:59.400 And these are points that, that I learned over 25 years, both being in court myself on laying criminal charges, and helping others do it, as well as my own research on the matter.
00:02:14.600 David, will you describe to us, annotated? Tell us what that is.
00:02:21.040 Annotated generally is, when you do a legal book, you're referring to a whole bunch of supporting materials that back it up.
00:02:28.840 So in our case, in our book here, there's over 130 different case law books, authorities, legal treatises that have been written, all kinds of supporting material that backs it up.
00:02:41.120 So if I'm going to say, for example, you have to lay in information, there'll be case law in there to back up the fact that you have to lay in information, the law in relation to it, and so on.
00:02:53.140 And the benefit is that, not only am I putting this forth, I've got material to back up everything I'm saying.
00:03:01.920 And you'll find it in there, everything along the way that I say in there is backed up by legal proof to back it up.
00:03:08.300 And that's the benefit of being annotated.
00:03:10.000 Awesome. Well, thank you.
00:03:12.440 I needed a definition on that one.
00:03:14.380 That's not a word that I'm familiar with.
00:03:17.100 And so I just want to encourage everybody, if you've seen it, David's email is clear2012atpm.me.
00:03:27.400 Thank you.
