Draft 3 - Preparation For Hearing tomorrow (still work in progress)
PRELIMINARY ISSUES
Greetings Consent and Capacity Board and the other parties involved,
In the spirit of procedural fairness and since I have ADHD and I am an ongoing no-touch torture survivor and satanic ritual abuse survivor: I ask that I may be able to read this prepared statement pertaining to my preliminary issues without interruption, please.
Preliminary Issue One:
Today I insist that the focus be on the fact that my freedom of religion, specifically Christianity, which is guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, see Section 2(a), which is part of the Constitution (the highest law in all of Canada), which recognizes the supremacy of God, or more specifically my Abba, Christ Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, is being violated by Ontario’s Mental Health Act and Health Care Consent Act.
Discussion as to other matters, including but not limited to diagnosis, evidence founded in hearsay or arguments limited in scope to the confines of those specific pieces of legislation that themselves are violating my freedom, are therefore both irrelevant and potentially damaging to my reputation. This could open up the possibility of a civil claim of personal injury should opposing counsel not be careful regarding what subject matter they make the free will choice of speaking about.
My focus will be on one argument. Should opposing counsel bring up certain topics orally (and refer to items contained within the evidence they have submitted) only then may I even respond to them during this hearing (and I may still choose not to).
The primary argument is this:
I am a Christian.
The Bible is the word of God.
Romans 13, Romans 14:23, and Luke 17:1-3 are passages contained within the bible.
I consider psychotropics to be sin.
I also consider psychotropics to be pharmakeia, but this is not crucial to the argument.
Therefore, the Mental Health Act and the Health Care Consent Act violate my freedom of religion which is guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Consent and Capacity Board, please decide that the Mental Health Act and the Health Care Consent Act violate my freedom of religion and then rescind my involuntary patient status, as well as the Form 33 and Form D orders applied for by Dr. Tabitha Rogers.
If the Board does not decide in my favor, I will appeal the decision to the Honourable and Respectable Ontario Superior Court of Justice, while I await the official response from the Attorney General of Canada and the Attorneys General of Canada’s provinces and territories, with the aim of obtaining a Constitutional Remedy.
Should ultimately the Honourable and Respectable Supreme Court of Canada not institute a Constitutional Remedy, to my satisfaction, I will request, in the alternative, that my case be brought before the United Nation’s Human Rights Council to address the rights and freedoms specified in the United Nation’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights’ (see Article 18) being violated by Canada (a member State):
“Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.”
Should it get to this point it is also possible I would seek to have the case brought before the International Criminal Court.
I do NOT want to pursue civil or criminal charges against any party involved in my ongoing persecution, including gang-stalking and torture, save for a claim in Small Claims Court (not Divisional Court or the Ontario Superior Court of Justice) which I have already submitted to the Court against Dr. Tabitha Rogers (and she is interfering with my ability to pursue justice by preventing me from going to the Ottawa Courthouse). However, should the parties involved today continue to make both my peacemaking efforts and pursuit of justice more difficult for me, I reserve the right to reconsider this free will choice that I have already made.
Preliminary Issue Two:
I was medically battered at the civic, and I was medically battered at the Royal. The evidence submitted by opposing counsel supports this.
In the evidence submitted by Dr. Tabitha Rogers it shows that as early as February 25, 2025, upon my admission to The Royal’s Mood & Crisis Unit I was making the staff acutely aware of the fact that I had an advance directive regarding psychotropics which indicates that psychotropics are against my Chrisian religious beliefs. Despite this, staff at Mood and Crisis still medically battered me on March 11, 2025. Even if they had done a Form D application prior to this (and they had not), as was initiated by Dr. Tabitha Rogers once I was under her care on the Schizophrenia North Unit, it does not change the fact that it was made plain to them that I considered psychotropics to be sin.
In the original Form 33 hearing on January 29, 2025, it is clearly indicated that I considered psychotropics to be sin, and during that involuntary admission I provided staff with a copy of my advance directive for my chart. I also repeatedly referred to it to the nurses and staff involved in my care and even placed a copy of it on my door. On the D6 psychiatric unit at The Civic there are many cameras, in addition to witnesses, that can confirm this. One of the times I was physically, and then mechanically, and then chemically restrained, which was medical battery, in addition to infringements of my freedoms and rights guaranteed by the Charter, one of the security guards yelled, and please excuse the language, “FUCK JESUS”.
Due to having been repeatedly medically battered, my ability to self-represent and get a fair trial is being interfered with due to the poison that is in my system which is impacting my ability to think. According to Drugs.com it can take up to 300 days for Invega Sustenna to leave one’s body, so I hereby request an adjournment until January 13, 2026 at 1:31PM.
Preliminary Issue Three:
Dr. Tabitha Rogers is prejudiced against me.
Quotes from transcript of audio recording go here.
https://youtube.com/@stevenreynen
Quote her saying in a loud and angry tone, “I DON’T CARE ABOUT YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS”.
Still wants to get the Canadian Governments permission to medically batter me, despite acknowledging again on August 15, 2025 that I am a Christian and I consider psychotropics to be sin.
She tried to get the office of the public guardian and trustee to consent to medically batter me pending the appeal process, and they declined.
She says the staff at Schizophrenia North can medically batter me at their discretion, and they have means, motive, and opportunity to do so.
She won’t let me have even grounds privileges until I am discharged, regardless of my future conduct.
I want a different psychiatrist who will not abuse me.
Preliminary Issue Four:
There are gross factual inaccuracies in the evidence submitted by opposing counsel. I am quoted as having said things that I never said and as having done things that I never did. Should some of the situations have occurred, there would have been significant supporting documentation that would be consistent with their erroneous claim. The evidence submitted by Dr. Tabitha Rogers and her counsel isn’t just merely hearsay, but should be treated with utmost suspicion.
Preliminary Issue Five:
Dr. Rogers indicates on her latest involuntary status form that I am not a risk of serious harm to others or myself, and the reason she uses to justify keeping me an involuntary patient is risk of substantial mental or physical deterioration. She says that I have already substantially mentally deteriorated. This simply isn’t so, despite the ongoing satanic ritual abuse, and no-touch torture. Just last week I was able to, even before returning to university this fall at Carleton to study philosophy, without researching the solution, devise my own proof from scratch to support my own initial hypothesis to a logic puzzle devised in 1975. This puzzle may be an entry level one, in terms of objective difficulty, but it has confounded even people with their doctorates.
The Schizophrenia Unit Recreation Therapist is in agreement with me, as well as the unit dietitian that my physical health is actually improving, as I gain muscle mass and lose some of the immense amount of weight that I gained when I was previously forced onto the pharmakeia. My three point shot in the gym, now that Dr. Rogers has permitted me to once again attend groups is actually improving, and I continue to spend on average hours a day walking on the unit in order to get exercise, which is good for both my physical and mental well being.
The involuntary status is merely a means of coercion to attempt to get me to voluntarily submit to take something I know is sin. Not to mention the fact that she threatened to treat me with the psychotropic that was once killing me, and this is well documented by many parties, as well as force me to ECT treatment should I not voluntarily submit to Invega. In a previous hearing, opposing counsel also suggested that should I not voluntarily submit to the psychotropics, I would be indefinitely detained as an involuntary patient and die during my admission.
Preliminary Issue Six: (Infringement of Rights and Freedoms guaranteed by the Charter)
My right to self-represent and get a fair trial is being interfered with.
I have been spit on by patients and staff, physically assaulted by patients and staff, emotionally and psychologically abused by patients and staff, threatened by patients and staff, harassed by patients and staff, had items stolen by patients and staff, and sexually harassed by patients during this involuntary admission at The Royal, as publicly documented on my website Reynen.ca and archived on archive.org.
During my involuntary stay, rights and freedoms guaranteed by not one, but seven different sections of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms have been repeatedly infringed upon.
Here are the seven sections of the Charter to which I am referring.
Section 2(b)
freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;
Section 7
Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.
Section 8
Everyone has the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.
Section 9
Everyone has the right not to be arbitrarily detained or imprisoned.
Section 12
Everyone has the right not to be subjected to any cruel and unusual treatment or punishment.
Section 15(1)
Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability.
Section 20(1)
Any member of the public in Canada has the right to communicate with, and to receive available services from, any head or central office of an institution of the Parliament or government of Canada in English or French, and has the same right with respect to any other office of any such institution where
· (a) there is a significant demand for communications with and services from that office in such language; or
· (b) due to the nature of the office, it is reasonable that communications with and services from that office be available in both English and French.
If the Board insists on keeping me an involuntary patient until this legal matter fully runs its course then I think it would be best that I was to stay at the “trial apartment” on Schizophrenia North for the remainder of my involuntary admission. It is under video surveillance, under digital key, and is still part of the locked unit. This may be best for all parties, given that amount of ways I have been physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally abused by both patients and staff during my involuntary admission.
Please see the care plan, I submitted as evidence, as some supporting documentation that The Royal is complicit in these infringements of my freedoms and rights which are guaranteed by the Charter.
I would like The Royal to formally address these abuses and issue me a formal written apology, once the apology has been vetted by their legal teams. The Client and Family Relations Team Manager Jonathan Vant (whom I have been complaining to about these abuses for months), the interim Chief of Staff Benoit Mulsant, the current CEO Cara Vaccarino, and the Clinical Director Dr. Attwood are well aware of the situation and are in the process of drafting a response to the situation I find myself in. It has taken them longer than the two week deadline they initially indicated that they would adhere to. In the interim, Dr. Tabitha Rogers intends to transfer me to Schizophrenia South today August 18, 2025, where there is one patient that has verbally threatened to kill me, twice, and another patient that has severely physically assaulted me in front of staff and required a chemical restraint, many patients who have mocked me and psychologically abused me, as well as at least one woman who self identifies as a pagan witch, and a man who identifies as a woman and publicly, and without any reprimand from The Royal repeatedly worships Satan, the Devil, and speaks ill of Jesus.
Preliminary Issue Seven: (The Consent and Capacity Board: Luke 17:1-3 and Procedural Fairness)
The Board, despite knowing I consider psychotropics to be sin, as acknowledged in the reasons for decision for the previous Form 33 hearing, still upheld Dr. Bardell’s application that I be considered not capable of consenting to treatment of a mental disorder.
I have also reported the Board to the Ontario Ombudsman. The board has not only infringed upon my religious freedom, but due to the ramifications of that, specifically in luring a little one of Christ Jesus into sin via double-bind, combined with the fact that I have reported them to the Ontario Ombudsman, I call into question their ability to act as an unbiased decision maker, and therefore assert that my right to self represent and get a fair trial is being interfered with in this fashion as well.
Preliminary Issue Eight:
Care plan, the abuse I have endured at the hands of Dr. Tabitha Rogers and the staff at The Royal, and the Royal’s failure to respond
QUESTIONS
What is schizoaffective disorder? Is there even consensus as to what it is, let alone how to cure it?
Is psychiatry or psychology a hard science?
What does the pharmakeia Clozapine do?
How does it work?
What are the known and common side effects? (I gained 250 pounds)
What are the known withdrawals? (I experienced severe ones)
Can it really kill you (even before the weight gain, heart problems and diabetes?), and that is why they suggest getting your blood work done?
Do people still experience the same symptoms after 'treatment' for the rest of their life, even on the pharmakeia?
If all of this is true, what are the objective benefits of being on the pharmakeia, if one is willing to tolerate the symptoms associated with a schizoaffective diagnosis, especially if they believe there are alternative explanations like DID from SRA or no-touch torture (please see reynen.ca for more details).
Am I a Christian? Yes or No? Please explain your answer.
Is the current Pope (Pope Leo XIV, also known as Robert Francis Prevost) a Chrisitan? Yes or No. Please explain your answer.
Argument
I am a Christian.
The Bible is the word of God.
Romans 13, Romans 14:23, and Luke 17:1-3 are passages contained within the bible.
I consider psychotropics to be sin.
I also consider psychotropics to be pharmakeia, but this is not crucial to the argument.
Therefore, the Mental Health Act and the Health Care Consent Act violate my freedom of religion which is guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Request
Decide that Ontario’s Mental Health Act and the Health Care Consent Act violated my freedom of religion and rescind the Form 33 order, and then have both the Form D order and the involuntary patient status rescinded.
Canada would not force a Jew to eat something that is not kosher.
Canada would not force a Muslim to eat something that is haram.
Will Canada force a Christian to submit to psychotropics (pharmakeia) which he considers to be sin?
Has Canada forgotten about God?
None of my family (my brothers and sisters in Christ) should ever end up in a place like The Royal (also known as The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre) being treated how I have been.
There must be some form of constitutional remedy to prevent this from happening ever again.
The possibility that in the future a brother or a sister in Christ could be diagnosed as Schizophrenic because they believe something contrary to what a psychiatrist deems socially acceptable (perhaps the biblical account of creation for instance or that they are one of God's elect, please see youtube.com/@stevenreynen for what Dr. Tabitha Rogers had to say about the later) and then be either
A) coerced to "voluntarily" and under duress take
or
B) forcefully treated with
psychotropics (pharmakeia) scares me.
This is a hill that I am prepared to die on.
Should the Consent and Capacity Board not make this decision, I am appealing this to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, and am already awaiting the response from the Attorney General of Canada as well as the Attorneys General of each respective province and territory of Canada as each other province or territory of Canada has comparable legislation surrounding involuntary patient status and the ability to deem one unable to consent to treatment.
