Exclusive: The Life and Times of Brian Peckford
Brian Peckford is a Canadian hero.
He served as the third premier of Newfoundland from 1979 to his retirement from politics in 1989. He is the sole surviving author of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and the author of the book 'Someday the Sun Will Shine and Have Not Will Be No More'.
He has tirelessly fought against the government overreach and violations of our constitutional rights imposed upon Canadians by the Trudeau government. Brian has also worked with lawyers to bring cases before the courts in regards to those same violations.
His travel ban case was shut down by the courts after they declared it moot, as the violations were no longer in place. Somewhat akin to declaring an assault case moot because the assault is no longer in progress.
During the Public Order Emergency Commission, government lawyers blocked Mr. Peckford's testimony. He would have told them that the EMA was a clear violation of the Charter he helped to write.
While today Mr. Peckford lives with his wife Carol on Vancouver Island, he grew up in Newfoundland. It was a different time. With different values.
In this in-person interview, Brian shares some of his memories of his childhood, and his life.
