Frozen THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2025 A8 ● WINNIPEGFREEPRESS.COM NEWS THE Winnipeg Police Service headquarters inquiry commissioner said no to funding the travel and legal costs of one of the participants granted standing Wednesday. Commissioner Garth Smorang, who has the authority to approve funding at reasonable rates for the costs incurred by those seeking standing, turned down an application from lawyers repre- senting Ottawa-based Adjeleian Allen Rubeli (AAR) engineering consultants. They sought funding on behalf of their client for the costs associated with legal representa- tion, as well as the costs associated with travelling to Winnipeg to attend the inquiry beginning in February. The funding application said that Peter Chang, one of its principals who was retained by the city prior to and during the redevelopment of the police headquarters, is no longer with the engineering firm. Chang lives outside of Manitoba, and therefore can’t be ordered to testify at the inquiry. The company “is uniquely situated to offer information to the inquiry that will assist in its mandate,” the AAR application for funding said. It noted the company name is “unfortunately closely linked with Mr. Chang” and that “AAR has suffered and will likely continue to suffer significant damage to its reputation as a result of its association with Mr. Chang.” The application acknowledged AAR has substantial retained earnings but said those earnings “must be used first and foremost for business purposes rather than legal representa- tion,” Smorang said. The commissioner turned down its funding request. “It seems to me that spending corporate retained earnings to defend its good reputation is indeed a legitimate and important business purpose,” Smorang said. He noted that other corporations and individuals involved “in this entire unfortunate matter” have done just that. Smorang said AAR is the only inquiry partici- pant that applied for financial help. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate a lack of sufficient financial resources to participate in the inquiry without assistance, he said. In 2018, AAR was named in a statement of claim, along with Caspian Projects, filed by the city for damages for alleged construction deficiencies alleging both companies were “neg- ligent” in their work on the WPS headquarters. In 2020, the city launched a civil suit against Caspian, AAR and dozens of other defendants, alleging a fraudulent scheme inflated the price of the project. An out-of-court settlement approved by Winnipeg city council in March 2023 would see the city receive $21.5 million if the payment was made in full within 12 months of council’s ap- proval, increasing to $23.5 million if paid within 36 months. A city spokesperson wouldn’t say Wednesday if any payment has been received. Inquiry won’t fund firm’s travel, legal bills In 2022, the court ordered Sheegl to pay back the City of Winnipeg $1.1 million to cover the bribe, the sev- erance he received when he left his city position, court costs and interest penalties and damages. The city also filed suits against Caspian Projects, structural engi- neering consultants Adjeleian Allen Rubeli and dozens of other defen- dants alleging deficiencies and neg- ligent work, as well as a fraudulent scheme that inflated the price of the project. The suits resulted in a multi- million-dollar out-of-court settlement for the city. Those companies were also granted standing Wednesday, along with the city and the Winnipeg Police Service. Commission counsel Heather Le- onoff said she is expecting testimony from Sheegl and Katz, who was Winnipeg’s mayor from 2004 to 2014 and good friends with Sheegl. Smorang said he cannot compel witnesses outside Manitoba to testify, and both Sheegl and Katz have been known to winter in Arizona. They could appear at the hearing by video link, said Leonoff, who has worked with the Justice Department for 25 years, leading the constitutional law branch. “I know my way around. I was Manitoba’s chief counsel on the miss- ing and murdered women’s inquiry,” Leonoff said. “That was sort of a similar scope.” She’ll have her work cut out for her. A political expert who’s seen Sheegl’s lawyer in action at a national inquiry called Wolson a “legal lumi- nary.” “Probably Sheegl could not be bet- ter represented,” said University of Manitoba political studies professor emeritus Paul Thomas. Wolson has been involved in several inquiries that focused on the intersec- tion of law and politics, Thomas said. “The terms of reference for the (WPS) headquarters inquiry are broad, involving legal, political and organizational matters. Wolson’s talents and experiences mean he has expertise in all three of these domains,” he said. Wolson was lead commission coun- sel in the national 2008 Commission of Inquiry into Certain Allegations Respecting Business and Finan- cial Dealings Between Karlheinz Schreiber and the Right Honourable Brian Mulroney. That probe was called into the so-called Airbus Affair, alleging the then-prime minster and other Conser- vatives took payments in exchange for the purchase by Air Canada — then a Crown corporation — of European Airbus jets over planes manufactured by Boeing. It looked into the corrupt lobbying activities of Schreiber, the German-Canadian businessman. “In that case, Wolson was asking the questions of witnesses,” said Thomas, who conducted research for the commission. “Needless to say, he was well-prepared, asked prob- ing questions and posed intelligent followup questions.” carol.sanders@freepress.mb.ca “What is new, in the worst sense of the word, is the direction from which the drones came. This is the first time in this war that they did not come from Ukraine as a result of errors or minor Russian provocations. For the first time, a significant portion of the drones came directly from Belarus,” Tusk said in parliament. The Russian Defence Ministry said its overnight strikes targeted Ukraine’s military-industrial complex in the western regions of the coun- try — which border Poland — with no planned targets on Polish territory. In an unusual message of outreach, the ministry said it was ready to hold consultations with Poland’s Defence Ministry. Belarusian Maj.-Gen. Pavel Mu- raveiko, the chief of the country’s general staff and first deputy defence minister, appeared to try to put some distance between his country and the incursion. In an online statement, he said that as Russia and Ukraine traded drone strikes overnight, Belarusian air de- fence forces tracked “drones that lost their course” after they were jammed, adding that Belarusian forces warned their Polish and Lithuanian counter- parts about “unidentified aircraft” approaching their territory. A house was hit in the village of Wyryki in the Lublin region near the Ukrainian border, Mayor Bernard Blaszczuk told the TVP Info television news channel. The roof was severely damaged, but no one was hurt. NATO air defences supported Po- land in what spokesman Col. Martin O’Donnell called “the first time NATO planes have engaged potential threats in Allied airspace.” That included the Dutch F-35 fighter jets that intercepted drones, according to Defence Minister Ruben Brekelmans. The alliance “is committed to defending every kilometre of NATO territory, including our airspace,” O’Donnell said. Tusk told parliament that consulta- tions took place under Article 4 of the NATO treaty — a clause that allows countries to call for urgent discussions with their allies. The consultations happened Wednesday at a previously planned meeting. They do not automat- ically lead to any action under Article 5, which is NATO’s collective security guarantee. Mark Lyall Grant, U.K. national security adviser from 2015 to 2017, said the incursion was an obvious escalation of Russia’s war in Ukraine, but there was not yet enough evidence to say it was an attack on a NATO member. But many European leaders ex- pressed deep concern, including those in the Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia that are the NATO members most nervous about Russian aggression. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zel- enskyy called it an “extremely danger- ous precedent for Europe” and called for Russia to “feel the consequences.” “Moscow always tests the limits of what is possible and, if it does not en- counter a strong response, remains at a new level of escalation,” he said. By midday in Washington, U.S. President Donald Trump’s only public comments about the incursion was a short post on social media: “What’s with Russia violating Poland’s airspace with drones? Here we go!” Trump was set to speak later Wednesday to Polish President Karol Nawrocki, according to a White House official who was not authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Phillips O’Brien, professor of stra- tegic studies at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, said the incident underscored the failure of NATO member states to accurately assess the threat posed by Russia and properly prepare for war. “NATO states, even front-line ones, have clearly not prepared for war of the type that is happening now,” he said in his Substack newsletter. Poland has complained about Russian objects entering its airspace during attacks on Ukraine before. In August, Poland’s defence minister said that a flying object that crashed and exploded in a cornfield in eastern Poland was identified as a Russian drone, and called it a provocation. In March, Poland scrambled jets after a Russian missile briefly passed through Polish airspace on its way to a target in western Ukraine. And in 2022, a missile that was likely fired by Ukraine to intercept a Russian attack landed in Poland, killing two people. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian air force said Russia fired 415 strike and decoy drones, as well as 42 cruise missiles and one ballistic missile overnight. Ukrainian air defences intercepted or jammed 386 drones and 27 cruise missiles, according to the report. One person was killed and at least five wounded, while several homes and businesses were damaged, according to local officials. The Russian Defence Ministry said in its morning report Wednesday that it had destroyed 122 Ukrainian drones over various Russian regions overnight, including over the illegal- ly annexed Crimea and areas of the Black Sea. — The Associated Press Police gave the man resources to social services and advised him to move his tent from the forest, Chancy said. Michalik said classes involving the forest were paused temporarily and students and staff were advised to avoid the wooded area. The incident comes on the heels of Coun. Cindy Gilroy’s amended motion to establish “no-go” zones for home- less encampments, including spaces designed for children and families. If approved by council, the city would prohibit camps near play- grounds, pools, splash pads, com- munity gardens, rail lines, transit shelters, bridges and on a median or traffic island. The Dakota Forest has several walking trails and a splash pad, fieldhouse and community centre beside it. Gilroy said the incident under- scores the need for these no-go zones. “We do have to put some param- eters on where we’re going to allow encampments and where we’re not going to allow encampments for this very reason,” she said. “We are experiencing some scary incidences with the drug crisis that is out there. I want people to understand that it’s not necessarily about homelessness, this is about addiction and mental health issues that go with it.” While enforcement would be car- ried out by bylaw officers, Gilroy said the public service could recommend social workers attend encampments to provide resources for the inhabi- tants. The motion will move to council’s executive policy committee before a final vote. If approved, the public service must report back to council with a formal encampment policy within 60 days. Michalik said the incident calls for a broader response to homelessness involving the city and province. “To ensure everyone’s safety and dignity,” he said. nicole.buffie@freepress.mb.ca DRONES ● FROM A1 STUDENT ● FROM A1 KATZ ● FROM A1 CAROL SANDERS / FREE PRESS Commission counsel Heather Leonoff says she is expecting testimony from former city chief administrative officer Phil Sheegl and former Winnipeg mayor Sam Katz. ;
