As per my habit, when I'm looking at youtube videos and Facebook pages of various FMOTL superstars I begin meandering off into posts made by their friends and supporters. I became intrigued by this supporter of Suzanne Holland

who always ended his posts with the exclamation "Curse Canada!!"
Anyways McDowell first came to the attention way back in 2000, being charged with assault for beating his wife and children and tried a biblical defence:

Things did not go well for him of course and after his stint in jail he began a campaign of harassment against the Crown who led the prosecution. As I mentioned he runs this blog:

There was an earlier version of it that was even worse and taken down by court order. He had gone to some extremes that were just not on so the province came down on him with two lead feet.

Many of his threats, I did rescue some portions of his old blog, bore classic Menard style hallmarks:
and of course the fee schedule:I also stated and do state again for the Record that I DO NOT ‘UNDER STAND’ any such threats of criminal actions against me: I do not and will not. One cannot be lawfully or legally penalized for seeking repentance/restitution outside of the courts, let alone PERSECUTED for same. Raygan’s ‘polite threat’ seeks to stop me from doing such lawful tings and put me in fear, now and in the future. I will not stand for it any longer.
Darryl's life since then has become somewhat monotonous and continues to this date. Complain loudly about anyone he takes a dislike to until they get a protection order, violate the protection order, spend some time in jail or psych assessment, rinse repeat.Last night he broke his word and was ‘back on the case’, coming here with a different member, both in separate vehicles this time. Not only was this doubly unwarranted, it was and is a waste of time, gas and energy. This time he was threatening me with ‘Criminal Harassment’ of Sheriff Mike Ferguson for one email I sent to him – rebuking, warning and charging him $500 for his trespass against me.
So how did the affair in BC go? Not well for our friend I'm afraid. His blog was taken down, and he got 18 months plus failed on appeal.
https://www.canlii.org/en/bc/bcca/doc/2 ... ultIndex=4The appellant was tried before a jury over the course of ten days. On December 19, 2014, he was convicted of criminal harassment. During the course of the trial, he represented himself. His conduct while so doing led to his being held in contempt of court. The presiding judge found it necessary to appoint an amicus curiae. The complainant was a woman who appeared as counsel for the Crown in obtaining the appellant’s conviction for assault many years earlier. The evidence showed the appellant to have created an Internet webpage on which he defamed the complainant over some period of time. In passing sentence on May 29, 2015, the judge imposed an 18-month Conditional Sentence Order (“CSO”) to be followed by one year of probation.
[3] The appellant appeals his conviction and his sentence. He applied for legal aid. Funding for the conviction appeal was denied. Funding for the sentence appeal has now also been denied.
[4] In June 2015, the appellant applied for an order suspending the CSO pending the disposition of his conviction and sentence appeals. His application was dismissed. The justice who heard the application concluded the appellant had not established there was “even a modicum of merit to his appeals”. The public interest in the enforceability of the CSO was accordingly seen to outweigh any public interest in the reviewability of his conviction and sentence.
He even tried the classic OPCA defence of objecting to everything the judge said and earned himself a contempt charge:
I do not criticize you at this point for what appears to be a perspective that you simply cannot resile from. But I do note for the record and for the purposes of sentencing that you are completely unapologetic and do not in any way see that anything you did was inappropriate in the context of a court case where the trial judge was trying to keep you on point and trying to run the proceeding fairly.
[5] THE ACCUSED: Objection.
[6] THE COURT: Stop. I have made the point that any time a judge makes a ruling which may or not be incorrect, you have the right to an appeal and that your appropriate recourse in this case, when you disagreed with anything the judge did, would be to bring on an appeal at the end of the case, citing each of these examples that you think the judge was in error over as part of the appeal process.
https://www.canlii.org/en/bc/bcsc/doc/2 ... ultIndex=1Mr. McDowell, I am satisfied on the basis of the law respecting contempt that on two occasions, on December 15th, 2014, and on December 19th, 2014, when you were cited by Mr. Justice Betton for contempt, that you had in fact advanced your notion of what was relevant and necessary to make your points on your case to a degree that infringed upon the appropriate boundaries within which court proceedings in this country are conducted, and that in embarking on a very serious and sustained ad hominem -- that is against the person attacked -- on the presiding justice, you committed a contempt in the face of the court.

His campaign has now began in earnest in Alberta with attacks against various members of the judiciary, Calgary Police, and RCMP

Just as a humorous note he admires Judge Rook:

I shall leave it to the user to grovel through his blog to track down the claim to being a victim of goat rustlers. (I need to go wash my mouth and mind out with liquorish beverages)The fact is that I had NOT been served and did not know of this hearing to vary the order: to keep my daughter in the Calgary area until all the matters were resolved. (Said order was granted by the eminent and decent ASSOC. CHIEF JUSTICE ROOKE. God bless his soul and those that appointed him. One of the FEW, very FEW righteous souls in that Hellish mess.)
