Canadian Human Rights Tribunal stopped early.

Thursday December 17 2009, Nav Can Center, Davis vs Human Rights Tribunal

I am still at the Davis vs CBSA Human Rights Tribunal, waiting for everyone to return. Davis needed a quick break, but Sean Gaudet never returned from the brief break yet.  Then Nicole Bacon (Canadian Human Rights Commission Tribunal) notified everyone in the gallery that they would be out on break for a bit longer.  We’ve all been waiting for longer than an hour for CHRT (Canadian Human Rights Commission Tribunal), Davis team, and Sean Gaudet (CBSA legal team) to return now.

10:53 am:  Lucinda Reading has not attended today.

11:05 am:  No one has returned yet, because Sean Gaudet is still on the phone with his legal team.

11:28 am:  Davis team, Canadian Human Rights Commission, and CBSA legal team, all just went to go meet privately.

12:27 pm Nicole Bacon (Canadian Human Rights Commission), just came into the tribunal meeting room and announced that the parties are currently discussing matters, so we are adjourning for the rest of the day.  Richard Jacobs needs to return tomorrow to testify.

12:30 pm: People in the gallery are talking about and laughing because Sean Gaudet just came into the tribunal room, he is slamming his books around and left angrily.

12:31 pm: Davis team just came into the tribunal room and they are looking for a specific document on their tables.

Nicole Bacon (Canadian Human Rights Commission) let the gallery (public) know that the parties would not be returning, but they can return tomorrow morning at 9:30 am.

Davis team and her supporters had lunch break until 3 pm.

Teiohontathe Fallan Davis, Kakwerais, Mr. Brian Smith (Canadian Human Rights Commission Lawyer), Mr. Sean Gaudet (CBSA), his assistant, and Lucinda Reading’s assistant continued a private meeting until about 4:45 pm.  Missing from the private meeting, was Rejean Belanger (Canadian Human Rights Commission Chair) and Lucinda Reading (CBSA ?).

The Human Rights Tribunal will meet tomorrow morning at 9:30 am and continue until 5:00 pm.
