Jeffers

Councillor Thompson Dept: The posters, which were amongst a collection of 10,000 that Mr. Jeffers intended to staple up around the city, also said: Councillor Thompson. Help black. We black. , according to Globe and Mail. In their 3-0 ruling today, the appellate judges said that the mischief charge was inappropriate on account of the fact that Mr. Jeffers was merely exercising a right that is common in democratic societies and mr. Jeffers and his family lost their condo in 2007 after they were unable to continue making mortgage payments. They had lived in it since 1986. Some of the posters Mr. Jeffers made bore a photograph of Mr. Thompson, who is also black, alongside Mr. Jeffers phone number and the words: Murder...Help. Another set of posters made no reference to Mr. Thompson. Instead, they included photographs of the Jeffers family and alleged that they had been defrauded by the condominium corporation that owns the complex. The posters also stated that the Jeffers family fear for their life. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
