  • 609 the History of the Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Argument Phenomenon in Canada I. Introduction
    THE ORGANIZED PSEUDOLEGAL COMMERCIAL ARGUMENT PHENOMENON 609 THE HISTORY OF THE ORGANIZED PSEUDOLEGAL COMMERCIAL ARGUMENT PHENOMENON IN CANADA DONALD J. NETOLITZKY* This article discusses the history of the poorly understood Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments (OPCA) phenomena. Drawing from various reported and unreported sources, the author begins his review in the 1950s with two distinct pseudolegal traditions that evolved separately in both the United States and Canada. Focusing on the prominent members of each era of the OPCA movement, the author explains in depth the concepts behind the movement and what it means for the legal system in Canada today. The article culminates with an analysis of the current OPCA groups and how Canadian courts should respond to future OPCA litigants, while also giving reasons as to why it is important for Canadians to take notice of this movement due to potential security risks.

Hon., University of Alberta, 1991 MA., University of Victoria, 1996 A dissertation submitted in partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In the Department of History We accept this dissertation as conforming to the required standard.

This document may not be reproduced in whole or in part without the permission of the author. Supervisor; Dr. Ian MaePherson Abstract The modem Canadian state is secular, but it is not a neutral state. It is a liberal democracy in which the prevailing value system has shifted. The shift has been from a culture in which a commonly held religion was accorded a special place in the development of law and custom, to a culture in which religious pluralism is recognized and an institutionalized secularism obtains. The assumption would be that this would betoken a new tolerance for diversity, and in some ways it does. In other ways, the modem state behaves with an understanding of pluralism that is just as consensus oriented as the Protestant Culture that dominated in Canada until the middle of the twentieth century, and with the same illiberal tendencies. In historical terms, the effect that can be charted is one of repeating hegemonies, where respect for freedom of conscience or religion remains an incomplete ideal.

NATIONAL CHRISTIAN ACTION MOVEMENT LAUNCHED IN CANADA Mr. Ron Gostick, publisher of "The Canadian Intelligence Service", and one of the most competent op- ponents of International Communism on the North American Continent today, is at the moment working across Canada with Mr. Eric Butler. At Mr. Butler's first meeting in Canada, at Montreal on Sunday, June 16, Mr. Gostick reported on the progress of the development of one of the most significant movements in the British Commonwealth today, the Christian Action Movement.
