Toxic Workplaces / Workplace Bullies

To Whom It May Concern.

Wow what an experience.

I was employed at Gal Power Systems in Mississiauga to work on diesel

generator systems.

I was working on a pair of 16 v 92 Detroit diesel generator sets at

4160 volt at a facility called the South West Regional Center in

Chatham Ontario.

I was requested by the project manager Moe Gallick of the Ontario

Realty Corporation to supply and install some fuel system components

at an Ontario Provincial Police transmitter tower close by.

When I went there to do the work I saw that this was an old abandoned

site no longer in use.

I was let into the building and began work.

As I was working I noticed the building had a an unusual amount of rat

poison or toxic chemicals distributed inside the building.

No breathing equipment or protective clothing were supplied by either

my employer Gal Power Systems, The Ontario Realty Corporation or the

Ontario Provincial Police.

Mr Gallick did not spend very much time in the building.

I did not complete the work.

Shortly after this I had to seek medical attention within the Ministry

of Health and was off work for close to a year.

This was a deliberate act.

I almost died.

This act of incompetence was the end of a series of poisonings that

started a couple of years earlier when I was working at Harper Detroit

Diesel on a project at Mississauga Hydro , probably continued when I

was hired by Thomson Technology in British Columbia and almost ended

in my death at Gal Power Systems.

Talk about bad politics or a toxic work place.

That's kind of the ultimate.

Some people say there is no corruption here in Canada.

The harrasment to date in my workplaces is unbelievable and

intolerable with off colour and

snide comments about my mental health.

There is much more to the story.

To Whom It Might Concern.

Here is a copy of a letter I sent to the Toronto Sun newspaper about

an article that was published.This incident that happened to me is an

odd health and safety issue.

Here is a situation where a union might have made a difference. I

will be sending more letters to various groups in the up coming year.

Hi Mr Margolis.

I found your article about Edwin P. Wilson all too frightening and

hits me personally way too close to home. I was working at Harper

Detroit Diesel in Toronto and one of my co workers or somebody in my

customer base or the competion started poisoning my food over a period

of months.

I almost died.

I had worked in the diesel generator industry for twenty two years as

a field service technician at a variety of dealers and distributors

based mostly out of the Toronto area. In this position I worked in and

around all types of generator set applications such as apartment

buildings, schools, retail stores, hospitals, marine units, motor

homes, data centers, airports, telephone switching centers, or just

about anywhere you would find a generator set.This position also took

me into a lot of high security buildings or buildings that you don't

need to know exist. Some of the customers I have dealt with include

Metropolitan Toronto Police, the Ontario Provincial Police, the

R.C.M.P., Bell Canada, Transport Canada, Navigation Canada, Public

Works Canada, Department of National Defence, the Ontario Realty

Corporation, Nexacor Realty, AT&T, Cantel, C.I.D.A., External Affairs,

and many, many more. I did quite a bit of work on high security micro

wave and fibre optics communication links all around North America.

This is where this poisoning comes from. One person I worked 15 yrs

with on these systems, who I had not seen in 4 yrs, called me at home

one night in the middle of this series of poisonings, who I didn't

even know had my home phone number and asked "aren't you dead yet". I

wound up on the West Coast of Canada standing in a parking lot with

what were suppose to be Chinese Nationals from F.E.T.A.C. being

photographed by the R.C.M.P. as part of a smear campaign.

The worst part of all of this is Gerry Duffett almost died, thats me.

The next worst part of all of this, is this is my tax dollars paying

these freaks. I wonder how many times a day this goes on.

I still don't know who poisoned me. I was off work for almost one year.

I can now 5 yrs later barely hold a full time job.

The harassment in my work place is unbelievable as far

as off colour and snide comments about my mental health.

There is much more to the story. My pager # is 416-612-5689.

Thank you.

Gerry Duffett.

P.S.

Just in the last couple of years a new fibre optics system was

installed in Ontario to link all the power generation stations to one

central control center code named Ledcor.

Don't tell anybody you know that, somebody might try to kill you.
