WCB a disturbing letter from Frederick Palmer his torcherous experience

Does anyone out there care about this? ( PDM ) I DO!

Thank you for such an eloquent and timely expose of the current WCB system in Canada.
I have never appealed except to say to WCB I was thrown from, dragged, and crushed, by three railway cars carrying at least 30 men. With at least 42 witnesses.

That was on August 30, 1979 and I have never been fit for any type of labour work since. Soon it will be thirty years of total disability from employment.

I receive about $220.00, a 10% disability pension, forced onto welfare, cut off retraining every time because I had a pension, called a fraud, an alcoholic, a pedophile, crook, a lazy no good, and every other lies they heap on me.

I have been crippled, slandered, impoverished, stressed to the point of suicide many times, suffer multiple injuries not being treated except what I can provide myself out of my welfare money, no transportation, housebound 95% of the time, and I will NOT APPEAL!
They knew I was crippled from day one. No man could withstand the smack in the back I took without being crippled for life, or the head first onto the track at forty miles an hour like a bullet out of a barrel, or the second car running over my ankle and crushing it.

Your time has come WCB.
A CBC crew is coming to my apartment to see me. I have been begging for help for thirty years. I might only get 1 and a half minutes but that is enough.
I am knotted up in pain. It is cold and I am living in one room with the rest of the heat turned off, the windows are frozen, there is mold, the roof leaks, and I can barely use the vacuum.
I am not allowed to invest money or buy property because welfare has rules too.
I believe they have been trying to assassinate me with 1. Pain 2. Poverty 3 Stress.
Too much for many to bear.
I mourn for my brothers who have been murdered by WCB. For my Father who died of a heart attack in the mill after having pneumonia because he went back to work too soon with pneumonia.
An only Son left abandoned at nine to the wolves.
If my father were alive to witness my abuse he would personally hang every one of you. I am coming for you WCB.

Mark my words I will see the murderers hang. And you can take that message all the way to Rothschild.

Update; Jan 28 2009 A CBC film crew just left my apartment. I dont know what the final product will be, over that I have no control. I dont know if I said the right things to help injured workers, or myself for that matter.
I was mesmerized with documents. I am in so much pain. I never got to bed till 4:30 in the morning up at 8 after tossing and turning, exhausted, at the end of my rope, but I will not falter. I cannot.
My mission is too important to mankind. No matter how they slander me, no matter how they physically abuse me, I will endure.
No matter how they cut me off financial aid, I will prevail.
To you, my family, my friends, my fellow Canadians, I will not let you down.
I have told all, shared all, and confessed all, on camera, for all to see.
Forgive me my trespasses, as I forgive yours.
May the Spirit in us all rise to the occasion and take us forward for the good of all. The total reform of the workers compensation system is needed, necessary, imminent, and I offer my services, my knowledge, my good faith, in harmony with humanitarian principles common to all.

Regardless of my confused past, my crimes, I can tell you I never seriously hurt anyone. To those hurt I have made amends with the greatest sincerity. There may be more but I am willing to pay the price of my freedom for any wrong I committed against another individual.

I am guilty of being brain injured and the consequences of that combined with everlasting pain, poverty, and stress, have altered my behaviour. Changed me to a wanker, to relieve stress because I had no other way.
No medical follow-ups on my condition, no diagnosis for 18 years, no further treatment, left in agony of body and mind. Please forgive my outrageous behaviour.
Please understand I have never laid a hand on a child and would never, have never done so.

The RCMP has my fingerprints and mug shots, and even my DNA, which I freely gave, with knowledge I am innocent and a smile upon my face. No charges laid or pending.

I did not know what was happening to me, migraine headaches for four days straight. Wishing I would die. Nausea constant and getting worse. Pain increasing because I was forced to work while injured and still not fully healed. Later trying to work not knowing the full extent of my injuries.
The company lying and saying they were going to give me a light duty job. There is no light duty on the railway unless you work in the office.
Retraining denied to learn computers or any other course, constantly cut off funding from government agencies after spending a year or more getting medical reports, being accepted into programs because of my physical disability and then being cut off because I had a $200.00 pension.
Suffering constant trauma psychologically litigating my case with no help and a brain injury. For 20 years I had these headaches. Depression, fear, pain, none being treated. Total disability from employment Crippled from a crushed ankle, a shattered shoulder, a broken arm and a broken collar bone, herniated disks, severed and crushed nerves, teeth shattered with microscopic cracks. Broken nose, scarred from head to toe.
Thousands of dollars in debt trying to retrain myself, property taken because of bankruptcies because no will give me the compensation or help I need to become independent again.

Drinking to relieve physical pain and stress, depression, enraged, and sometimes violent while drinking Well CBC was here today and they saw the documents from WCB saying I am totally disabled from employment,
The government of N and L saying I am totally disabled from employment, Every specialist in Ontario and N and L saying I am totally disabled from employment. Since 1979 this has been the case.
For the last 30 years this has been the case, the truth. I am entitled to 75% of my gross wages ( currently over $48,000 + per year union contract) and medical care for my injuries. I have received neither for almost 30 years now.
Because WSIB Ontario will not give me an email address to send this letter to, please forward it to directly to the head of the WSIB, carbon copy to the President, and all adjudicators who have ever been involved in my case and medical staff.
I WILL NOT APPEAL!! There is a court case in Canada where a man was injured so seriously any reasonable person, after looking at all the medical evidence, would have to conclude with certainty that they can no longer function at previous employment. Yet the Case showed the WCB purposely ignored all this overwhelming body of evidence when even a child could tell the seriousness of the conditions caused from these injuries. T
housands in Canada in this same state of total disability from employment caused by their employer are dumped off onto welfare programs that further hinder and traumatize the individual.
Well no more will this happen in Canada. It cannot happen if we are a civilized people, gathered under the flag of Canada, respecting the rights of all citizens, and not discriminating against any group.
Canada has done that with a group called injured workers, which could be you.
Rights taken include,
1.Right to make your own decisions on career and place of employment or business.
2.Right to retrain after suffering total disability from former employment
3.Right to sue the company for their negligence
4.Right to have a say in your own medical care
5.Right to charge company with any crime including slander, fraud, mail fraud, omissions and errors, minimizing injuries for the purpose of withholding benefits to patient.
6.Right to timely and appropriate health care
7.Right to financial compensation approximating actual wage loss as promised in legislation. 8.Right to be treated with dignity and respect and fair treatment.
9.Right to make your own decisions concerning your own life. (A hostage)
10.The only right you have is to appeal to the same criminal board that cut you off in the first place for no good reason.

David facing Goliath without even a slingshot or a rock. The workers of this country deserve better. The people of this country deserve better. For the sake of our sanity, our good name, our peace and prosperity, we must endure.
For those that come after us, we must ensure good health, opportunity, and justice. Join me in making Canada the best workers compensation system on the planet. I personally have the knowledge, the wisdom, and the experience to be a great benefit to my fellow Canadians.
Please work with me to ensure none are left by the wayside, especially our most vulnerable and needy, who by the very act of working and contributing to society, are now discarded and forgotten.
No more will the people of Canada accept an unfair social contract that leads to the death of many.
In their memory I stand, proud, free, determined, as a citizen of Canada to end this abusive process that drives men mad and leads to their destruction.

Respectfully with the utmost sincerity, Frederick Palmer Founder - V.O.C.A.L. (Victims Of Compensation Abuse League)
