They say we should be careful of what we wish for--because we might get it! In my case, some of the parties in the secret police project wanted me to get into trouble for making "inappropriate" romantic or sexual comments...it was so that I could sympathize with and write about gay issues...but it seems not everyone was happy when it happened...!? On my side, I don't often have the parties communicating directly with me...I just get clues from here and there...and it can be hard to know how to handle things. Also, the police and firefighters have often been competing among themselves and that's made it worse for me.... But I'll try to sort out what I can....
As far as I understand from feedback I've gotten lately, the lawyer at the Ontario Rental Housing Tribunal in 1998 didn't know about my continuing business...? And I've said I should've written a letter to explain all my concerns calmly...and I really did feel that I was being accused unfairly about the personal letters.... Or I could've been less sensitive and chosen not to react at all...?
Over the years, I've thought and said many times that I believed the intention of the "stern executive's" letter to me in 1998 was to provoke me.... But I wasn't sure exactly which party was responsible for it and everyone denied it, that I could see.... And it was only a little over a year ago that I realized the lawyer had actually been involved, also....
At this time, to the best of my knowledge, the "stern executive" and the lawyer [and/or their associates] are both trying to distance themselves from the complainant, as far as business in the police project goes.... And I've asked often if this is reasonable...not that I want to defend the complainant...!?
The "stern executive" actually wrote me the letter on behalf of the complainant--although the letter didn't specifically say so; and the lawyer had apparently given his permission for the executive to use his job title, which was a little higher than the executive's. So, it could be said that both these men were involved in giving consent to the letter...!?
Did the two men above INTEND to provoke me by the letter, for the purpose of the police project??? Or was the letter--which was somewhat hostile in my opinion--simply a byproduct of misunderstandings over the landlord/tenant matter, at the time...? Because if the men intended to provoke me, can they say they're a lot better than the complainant...? Although the complainant carried things much further in the criminal courts....
Anyway, I think the parties who aren't coming forward with their business are being polite...? Canadians are known for being polite....
