 There are more than 40,000 accounts registered on the
 Toronto Freenet 35,000 of  which have not even minimal
 proof of the identity of their owner on file. 

 It has come to my attention that many if not *hundreds*
 of these accounts are fraudulant and may be even controlled
 by current Board Members or their *very* close buddies. 

 These bogus accounts were used for E-Mail and Usenet smear
 campaigns during the past elections. And these accounts were
 used to rig the results according to wishes of certain
 individuals.

 A clear course of action is called for:

 1. Election results are VOID and new elections called
    immediately to be monitored by an independant third
    party.

 2. All accounts formed before positive ID's were required
    are deleted unless members provide identification.

 3. A complete investigation of submitted, signed members
    agreements is done to search for anomalies.

 4. Call the police if we find evidence of wrong doing.
    This is not fun and games - it's fraud and it's illegal.

 And, no, I am not interested in running again for the TFN Board.
 The mad municipal mega-elections are just around the corner and
 I will be far too busy very soon.
