You know, armed guards escorted me to court in handcuffs, with a chain around my stomach and cuffs on my ankles. The weapons were allowed in court. Can you imagine that? The first time, there were sharpshooters on the roof. If I had been Justice Noël, I would obviously have been scared. When you see someone in that kind of situation, you automatically assume the person is very dangerous.
When Justice Noël held the ex parte in camera proceeding, members of CSIS told him heaven knows what, without my having had an opportunity to challenge their allegations. He listened to them but I could not contradict them. I didn't know what they were saying. They could testify as agents, saying that I was dangerous and associated with dangerous people, without my having an opportunity to refute their allegations.
