No one has explained the apprehension order or why theChildren’s Aid Society went after Mona-Clare when she was yet afetus.

VANDENELSEN LETTER On January1.1993, I gave birth to Canada’s first New Yearstriplets, who were conceived by in vitro fertilization usingdonor sperm.
On December 20, 1995 my then husband hired a lawyer to go tocourt in the absence of the entire family to obtain custody ofmy children. I was not aware of this procedure, and nor is itrecorded.
After five years, six lawyers and hundreds of thousands ofdollars, I still could not get my children legally or rightlyreturned to my care. As a result , and as a loving and caringmother, having noted a remarkable deterioration of my children,I absconded with them only to be located and arrested in Mexicothree months later. I was returned to Canada where I wascharged, tried and acquitted by a jury. However , the crownappealed and I now face a re-trial on parental abduction.
Please find enclosed a copy of my book, "America’s Most WantedMother" detailing these accounts. After legal scrutiny, the bookwas found to be a treatise account- an accurate factualrendering of events.
Shortly following its publication, I met and married a man,Lawrence Ross Finck. He too absconded with his child followingthe death of her mother and after four lawyers worked in concertby illegally conducting court proceedings which lead him to losecustody of his daughter. The lawyers were subsequently chargedwith obstruction of justice, however, the charges were laterwithdrawn by the Attorney General of Ontario. My husband spenttwo years in prison as a result of what the lawyers orchestratedand his daughter remains in a significantly abusive environmenton a native reserve.
Since our union we have attempted and continue to attempt toexpose the criminal abuse of children by state authorities andlawyers in a multi billion dollar family law industry.
While living in Ontario, and following the stated knowledge ofmy pregnancy, my ex-husband obtained another ex parte courtorder unilaterally cutting all communications to my tripletchildren two days after they made an independent move to myhome, as they simply wished a shared relationship with bothparents.
Although my children, who were almost 11 years old wereinterviewed by child welfare authorities, who determined thatthey were more than capable of ascertaining their own wishes,the judge (Grand Campbell) made the opinion that no child ofmine could endure such "forceful personalities and like-mindedindividuals" -referring to my husband and me.
Fearing state authorities would not relent, my husband and Ileft Ontario in November 2003 and moved to Halifax, Nova Scotiato born our child. We resided with my mother-in-law.
On December 23, 2003, I gave birth to a healthy girl, however,unbeknownst to us, child welfare authorities in Ontariofabricated a Canada Wide Apprehension Alert prior to the birthof our daughter, which was sent to Halifax only (authoritiesfollowed us to Nova Scotia), while my baby was still in the womb.
Child welfare authorities did not attend at the hospital when mybaby was born, as they were on Christmas holiday. In earlyJanuary 2004, they contacted my family physician who stated thatmy baby was healthy and in good and loving parental care.
On January 13, 2004, the Children’s Aid Society of Halifax,filed a notice of supplication for a supervision order and anorder prohibiting us form leaving the province.
On January 15, 2004 Debra Smith of the Supreme Court of NovaScotia issued an apprehension order to seize our infant. Therewas no notice, no grounds, no evidence of abuse, neglect orabandonment. I left the jurisdiction with my baby prior to thehearing, fearing and correctly suspecting the worst.
While I remained in hiding, my husband continued in legalproceedings, self-represented, anticipating a resolution ofmatters, however, his efforts were futile, even at the Court ofAppeal.
On May 19, 2004,after authorities learned of my return to thejurisdiction, a SWAT team attempted to break into my motherin-law’s home in the middle of the night with a battering ramand machine gun in attempt to seize my nursing infant. My motherin-law fired her shot gun from within her home, sending policeaway. State authorities declared a stand-off. Following thedenial of medical attention, of all family members and finallyof her priest my mother-in law died. My baby was then forcefullytaken from my arms and I was attacked with a taser gun, twice,which left scaring and neurological symptoms.
My husband and I were arrested, charged, tried and convicted,and now face years of imprisonment for "willfully andunlawfully" detaining our nursing infant with the intent todeprive the government of "lawful custody".
We have not seen ourbaby in a year (since the’ stand-off’) and the state has nowmoved for permanent custody alleging that my husband and I arementally incapable of raising our child. It should be noted that we are with above average intelligence and never has our fitnessas parents been questioned by anyone. All family members whocame forward to have our baby placed in their care have beenturned away.
Please find enclosed a copy of our Notice of Leave to Appeal inthe Supreme court of Canada as regards a writ of Habeas corpusrespecting our infant child , as well as a copy of the documentsthat procured the initial apprehension order of January 15, 2004.
Smith J., who made the order , was promoted to Chief AssociateJustice of the Supreme court of Nova Scotia while JusticeMinister, Michael Baker and Nova Scotia Premier, John Hammrefuse to conduct a public inquiry into this casenotwithstanding hundreds of requests and demands to do so.
Although my husband and I have been targeted and continue to paya dear price for our attempts to expose the criminal abuse ofCanadian children, millions of other children and family membershave fallen prey to permanent familial displacement and lifelong afflictions.
Statistics show increased infertility, decreased birth rates,but increased undisclosed and unloosening adoption sales ofinfants and children seized by child welfare authorities.
The courts are continually denied my husband’s and myapplications and submissions regarding the constitutionality ofstate actions- violations of liberty, physical and psychologicalintegrity infringements of speech, expression and opinion.Increasingly damaging our state joint ventures (Justice,Community, Services, Health) procuring psychological/psychiatricassessments of parents whose children are subject to becomingwards of the state, most often determining that parents fail themental capacities to raise their children. The result has beendevastating for parents, grandparents, and children.
My husband I are the first Canadian parents to be convicted ofacting to protect out offspring, which profoundly leaves an"open season" effect on all Canadian children. It is not onlythe indigenous that face significant peril.
Corruption in the judicial system is rampant with completeimmunity for lawyers appointed to the judicial bench. The publicis completely blind sided by a government doctored and directedmedia. Tyranny and oppression are growing rapidly and theultimate destruction of the group unit of society- the Family isdangerously close at hand.
Stealing (systematically kidnaping) children without dueprocess must stop. The children of Canada and the future of outsociety will only survive if world condemnation falls upon theperpetrators. I beg you, as a mother, as an educator, as a human activist and as a researcher on social engineering, please help us.
I am launching a "starving for the children" campaign on May21st, 2004, marking the first year anniversary of the negligentdeath of my mother-in-law and the systematic kidnaping of myinfant child in desperate hope that the Canadian government willproperly take carriage of these matters.
I do not anticipate my survival, however, I see not alternative.These crimes against humanity and this torture must stop, forthe sake of the children.
Carline VandenElsen,
Mother
