Canadian Children's Rights Council website shut down
by false allegations of child pornography
November 29, 2007
The Canadian Children's Rights Council alleged the
following which has not yet been proven in a civil
and/or criminal court and is the subject of litigation
initiated by the Canadian Children's Rights Council and
our executive falsely reported as being a pedophile .
The criminal aspect is mischief committed by the person
making the false allegation. The civil is the damages
and cost to change web hosting companies.
In February 2007, just before Valentines Day, an
executive volunteer of the Canadian Children's Rights
Council, started a website for his daughter using
authorized web space allocated by the Canadian
Children's Rights Council. The website, while being
totally autonomous from our website was on web hosting
space which is part of the web hosting package with one
of the largest Internet web hosting companies in the
world, 1 & 1 Internet Inc.
The website contained a few pictures of the adult
daughter taken when she was a child and a valentines
greeting without any personal information other than the
first and last name of the daughter whom had already had
provided substantial personal information on the social
network open to the world called Facebook.
A "Nude" picture was on the website. The
picture is of a toddler taken from the back/side with
the baby standing with her diaper around her feet. The
only possible "bare" area was her bottom and both her
bottom and her chest were blocked out in the picture
displayed on the internet website.
This picture below is the actual picture as shown on
that website. The orange block-outs were included
as shown, although we are of the opinion that they
aren't even needed. If you are a member of the
media and wish to use the picture below, please contact
us. We will note your contact information and, in most
cases, provide permission to use the photo in your
publication.
Service to that website was terminated without notice
and a false explanation was provided by the customer
service of the Internet web hosting company. Days later,
they finally revealed that they had a phone call from a
woman who stated she was the ex-wife of one the
executive of the Canadian Children's Rights Council
falsely claiming that the executive is a pedophile and
had put child porn on the website in question.
The Internet webhosting company had terminated
service, locked the website content and reported it to
the FBI. They had not looked at the website.
When they finally admitted why they shut down the
website and all other websites in the web hosting
package including the website of the Canadian Children's
Rights Council, they were asked to view the website in
question. The company had a policy of shutting down
websites first and not reviewing them, leaving these
websites to be viewed by police who would
determine if the content was child porn as defined by
the criminal justice system.
The web hosting company then claimed that their 20
page contract stated that they could shut down any
websites without notice for any reason whatsoever. They
had such a policy to "protect children from sexual
exploitation".
The Canadian Children's Rights Council fully supports
the reporting of real child porn and child abuse and has
passed on such reports when received immediately to
national and international police services.
We support Cypertips.ca and have provided information
about them to every person who has had contact with us
regarding a possible incident of child sexual
exploitation.
The Cybertips.ca website stated on November 29, 2007
"Since launching Cybertip.ca in September 2002, the
tipline has forwarded reports to law enforcement that
have resulted in 27 arrests and the removal of as many
as 2100 websites."
We wonder about the extent of the problem and the
effectiveness of methods used to fight child sexual
exploitation in Canada and internationally. Why with
2100 websites reported has there been only 27 arrests in
5 years? What was the criteria for the websites?
We estimate that over 50,000 children in Manitoba are
suffering from Parental Alienation Syndrome, a form of
child abuse. Why aren't there statistics
from that government about this important form of child
abuse. Why isn't the Manitoba government doing
something? This is a major children's mental health
issue. Why doesn't the government provide no
charge lawyers to these child victims and their parents
that are the victims of Parental Alienation for the
purpose of stopping this form of child abuse? The
provincial governments do supply lawyers at no
cost to parents for the purpose of collecting child
financial support as ordered by the court but they don't
go after parents disobeying parenting time orders made
by court or negotiated in separation agreements by
divorcing or never married parents.
