You can remain anonymous.

Thanks, but I would really rather remain anonymous. I’m sure you must have names of former Canadian staff members and can contact them directly.

Could you email me? warrenthrockmorton @ gmail. com

I have several reliable sources within GFA. It really should be to no ones amazement Emerick’s application for landed status was denied. He was in Canada for 10 years as a US transplant to fill a void which could have and should have been filled internally when the former director left. There was no reason Canadian Immigration should have allowed him to stay when the role can be filled by a Canadian. It’s that simple. There is an RCMP investigation but whether it is on going or not is anyone’s guess. The RCMP investigation started in 2015 and a number of people have been interviewed. I know former Canadian staff, the former Canadian Director, and former Canadian board members have all been interviewed by the RCMP. It’s either one long investigation or the RCMP did not believe there was enough evidence to continue. Time will tell.

No worries. Thanks for responding.

The RCMP could be involved in a Canada Revenue investigation if they were called in by Canada Revenue Agency Criminal Investigations Program.
Pastor Bruce Morrison did file a complaint with the RCMP, as well as with Rev Can.
No way of knowing if there were/are parallel investigations going on.

Privacy concerns are a big deal, and short of charges being laid in Canada, there would not be information released.

I’m wondering if the RCMP be involved in seeing Emerick left Canada because of the US court case.

The GFA World information at the Charities Directorate – Canada Revenue Agency hasn’t been changed. Don’t think it has to be on the 2017 tax return for GFA World. Emerick isn’t listed on the public information filed with Corporations Canada, so no change there.

So that’s two execs sidelined – David Carroll and Pat Emerick – unless Emerick is running the Cdn operation from Texas.

As an aside, those weirdly named corporations GFA Canada set up and closed now make more sense.
And I wonder what’s going on with GFA and the UK Charity Commission.

The last I heard, it was about that. Perhaps it’s been declining as the civil case wears on. I believe that KP knows exactly what he is doing. He is one of the most shrewd and calculating showmen/fundraisers in the industry. He simply has not been called out on any of this for the last 35+ years, so he isn’t handling this confrontation very well. The wheels of justice turn very, very slowly. But they do turn. Stay tuned….

I wrote to them a couple of times and called. They said they would have to get back to me, but they never did. I imagine that is their tactic with others. They only want donations from those willing to write checks and never ask any questions.

Sorry for the delay. I heard from a reliable source that Canada deported him. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) still have an open investigation on GFA Canada, as does the U.S. for GFA USA. Canadian authorities would not disclose any details regarding the deportation due to “privacy considerations” but Emerick’s departure was not planned. Hope that helps.

Yes basically MG, I just want someone to be snarky for me! Poop, of course they will lie. I’d just be curious to hear what they would say & hopefully hear some verbal squirming. I’d call myself but I’m such a bad BS’er they’d figure me out.

If they wanted to move more conservative, they could have transferred him to the Progressive channel (although that wouldn’t be entirely accurate). Or they could have left the old posts up and let him post an “I’m moving, here’s my new blog” post. If they’d done either of those, I could respect that.
Simply shutting down his blog and removing the posts without significant advance warning was unimpressive, however.
