It appears the WaterWarCrimes lawsuit may have destroyed another legal career at Canada's Department of Justice. According to a letter dated March 29, 2010, signed by Department of Justice legal counsel, Lisa Riddle, former legal counsel on the WaterWarCrimes lawsuit, Melanie Chartier, is no longer with their office.
The departure of Melanie Chartier is surprising because she was was working at the Department of Justice, in Vancouver, as late as March 12, 2010 and gave no indication she was leaving.
Ms. Chartier was junior counsel to former Deputy Minister of Justice John Sims, Q.C., who, on March 15, 2010, announced his departure from the Department of Justice effective April 1, 2010, after allegations that he committed fraud in the WaterWarCrimes lawsuit were published over the internet and circulated around the globe. The reasonable inference is that Ms. Chartier was an accomplice of Mr. Sims in his fraudulent submission and that both had to resign due to their mis-conduct as officers of the Federal Court and employees of the Government of Canada who have an obligation to be honest in the court process.
The case continues and Vancouver lawyer Lisa Riddle has announced that she has replaced Ms. Chartier.
