Judicial District of Edmonton

Rooke, A.C.J.Q.B.

October 8, 2015.

Summary:

Boisjoli attempted to enter a purported default judgment that he delivered to the court. The purported default judgment consisted of documents that claimed large sums of money from the Province of Alberta and a peace officer who had issued Boisjoli a traffic ticket. The clerk referred the purported default judgment for review.

The Alberta Court of Queen's Bench held that the purported default judgment did not constitute a default judgment under the Rules of Court, but instead were vexatious organized pseudolegal commercial argument (OPCA) materials. The court identified a pattern of criminal misconduct by Boisjoli that misused the court's processes. The court declared Boisjoli to be a vexatious litigant on eight independent bases. The court issued a strict and broad order setting out the steps to be taken to halt Boisjoli's vexatious court activities and interference with the processes of all three levels of Alberta courts, including that he use a lawyer for all correspondence and filings with the courts. The court denounced a notary public's participation in Boisjoli's criminal intimidation scheme and OPCA litigation. The court referred Boisjoli's materials to the Alberta Minister of Justice and Attorney General for possible further action against Boisjoli and the notary public.
