Re: Sub55
1. The charges are not "alleged", are they? You were at some point charged, although like you say the charges were withdrawn for whatever reason.
2. Your definition of "verbal" is narrower than it needs to be. You could argue that a forum like this is entirely a verbal discussion. 3. I don't bring up my races, you do. You never stop. Like it's the only thing that matters. What does it matter how many races I saw as a kid, at the old Paul-Sauve... who cares? You fight on qualifications because it's the only ground on which you win. In terms of ideas, input, constructive attitude, etc. you lose, so all you do is question other people's right to speak based on track record in the sport. In terms of track record, do you list your failures? Are there any? I assume you'll say no... And thx very much for the kind words about my writing, Uboat. Quote:

Re: Sub55
"In terms of ideas, input, constructive attitude, etc.", if I see any from you I will let you know.
I proposed a National Crit Championship for two years. We finally got it back. Did you do that? I had to listen to silly critics on CC Forum for months go on about unknown UCI bullshit, simply arguing against the Official Championship to contradict what I had to say. There was no legitimate reason not to have our own Crit Championships like the US, it was a no-brainer, but even that took years to change. I have commented on the Newfoundland Proposal, it is right here on this forum. Have you commented on that? I have been calling for merchandising sales for the CCA for two years. Does that link work on their web site yet? (I have not checked it in a week but I'm assuming it does not. If it does Halleluiah). I have suggested the Authorized Bike Shop Network affiliated with the CCA. I have made dozens of constructive, concrete suggestions. You, on the other hand, Patrick, offer pie-in-the-sky philosophical hypotheticals. Big help they are. You cannot be blamed though, you work in PR, you're all about hot-air. My experience is in actually getting things done and putting something on the road. You discuss policy. I'll get things done. You can write about it and interview me once things have been actually been accomplished. |

Re: Sub55
Oh, yes, I forgot the sheer hypocrisy of this statement from Van de Wille:
"all you (Ed does) do is question other people's right to speak based on track record in the sport." - Van de Wille wrote. I question nobody's right to speak, you do that, "I never got you banned from any forum - you've tried to blame all your sorry failures on me, at one time or other - but I do happen to agree wholeheartedly with it. " Van de Wille. You are such a hypocrite, Van de Wille. I do not want to see anybody banned for their opinion, for their lies maybe, but not their opinion and certainly not for posting words I had written myself which is what caused you to ask Pedal to ban me, which they did. " Quote:
No, no he didn't get me banned, he says, but he asked for it and it happenned, did it. Just another comment by Van de Wille not be be believed. I maintain everybody's right to an opinion but I also defend my right to prove them wrong when they are. |

Funny, I thought your recent experience involved getting fired as Competition Coordinator of the 2003 World Championships, and then losing a lawsuit against the CCA? |

Re: Sub55
Yes, after successfully putting on the 2003 CDN Nationals and completeng most of my Worlds work months ahead of schedule and far in advance of everybody else.
Here is part of comment by somebody else who worked at Hamilton 2003, if I get that person's permission maybe I will post the full letter and their name: "I worked also at the 2003 world cycling championships, and my experience corresponds closely to Ed’s view of the organization. I can vouch for the accuracy of his claims. His suggestion, for example, to hire Kris Westwood as the media relations officer, for which he was chastised, would have been infinitely better than the unilingual athletics journalist that was hired, and obtained so little exposure for cycling in Ontario leading up to the event." As for the old press clipping, it is just that old news. Ask yourself why the news of the charges being dismissed wasn't covered by The Gazette/CP? That would not have fit in to their smear campaing, that's why. Even Van de Wille acknowledges that, " Van de Wille: 1. ...You were at some point charged, although like you say the charges were withdrawn for whatever reason. You can continue the smear campaign if you want but the truth will eventually win out. |

Re: Sub55
So,
The charges were dropped--but instead was there not a restraining order against the entire newspaper or something, for a year? So you sue the CCA, get fired from the worlds committee, and think you will get a job with them a few years later? Are you joking? And after all this rabblerousing, blasting Kinash and his home province, for example? It's no wonder threads like this get going. It's not that we want to try and convince Ed he's nuts, we'd rather drop it--but he keeps defending himself in such crazy ways it's hard not to keep writing about it. Furthermore, if I'm not mistaken, drugs were found when the police charged him. Do we want a drug addict working for the CCA? Good day sirs. Quote:

Re: Sub55
So you are posting someone's letter (albet without their name, for now) without their permission? You sound like a pretty trustworthy guy, Ed. Love to have you as a friend.

Re: Sub55
I'd love to see the cover letter for Ed's resume for the CCA job.
Dear Sirs, You may remember me for suing you recently. Also, I was fired by the Worlds group two years ago. On top of that I've been active blasting your president and his province, and spamming almost everyone in cycling. I've had several jobs in cycling. I'm fortunate enough to have been fired from all of them. I hold the record for being banned on websites and forums, and there is a massive conspiracy against me. I'm quite wellknown in the media as I was charged with email harassment after drugs and weapons was found in my house. Don't believe me? Google my name. If you don't hire me you are really really stupid and I will spam you all. YOU BETTER HIRE ME! Best Regards, Ed Arzouian Quote:

Re: Sub55
It was a letter addresed to and intended for numerous people, just not necessarily for you or publication, yet.
As for these old claims and other accusations, keep bringing them up if you like. It has been more than three years and nothing ever came of them. Toss them around if you want, you have no knowledge of anything, certainly no proof of anything and nothing to substantiate your lies. You cannot address any issues or engage in any discussions you attack me personally in anonymity. That's fine, I'm used to dealing with you cowards and nobody can take people who hide and make false accusations for the shadows very seriously. |

Re: Sub55
I'd say a restraining order for a year against multiple parties is something--re the charges.
So do you aren't denying the drugs and weapons? Quote:

Re: Sub55
These aren't "personal" attacks. All these points prove that having you as an employee is possibly the worst idea.

All you had to do was ask, unlike you cowards I have nothing to hide and fear nobody: To: general@canadian-cycling.com Cc: steve.lacelle@canadian-cycling.com ; 'Brett Stewart' Sent: Wednesday, May 18, 2005 11:34 AM Subject: Director, Marketing Operations To the Canadian Cycling Association, Without a doubt I will be the most qualified, experienced and talented applicant you will get for the Director of Marketing Operations position. I have already negotiated well over $1,000,000 in CDN cycling sponsorship. My bio is already on your web site: http://www.canadian-cycling.com/English/news/2003/mar03/11%20-%20Three%20new%20staff%20at%20Hamilton%202003%20Worlds.htm http://www.canadian-cycling.com/French/nouvelles/2003/mar03/11%20-%20HAMILTON%202003.htm One would think that would be enough to get the job but I know it isn't. It will also require people setting aside personal prejudice and bias. Many things have been said and written about me. Most are lies, falsehoods or inaccuracies. I suggest you speak with me directly if you want truth and insight. I can step into the position and hit the ground running. There will be little need for a learning curve, I'm already familiar with almost everything there is to know apart from BMX details and your secret contracts. I have already articulated numerous marketing projects and potential sources of revenue for the CCA. I am aware of most of the CCA's current plans. In fact, you could say I have already implemented an important marketing step for you: I have little doubt that it was my efforts that re-instated the national criterium championships, something that should have been done long ago. Two years ago the CCA had a chance to do the right thing. I was the only person at Hamilton 2003 who was looking after the interests of the sport and the CCA above my own. The CCA chose to ignore that. It cost me dearly. In the subsequent two years the CCA has had the chance to again do the right thing and it has chosen not to. Years were wasted, opportunities lost, potential compromised. Now the CCA has another opportunity. It should take it. Hiring me would send the message the CCA is serious about making changes. It is very likely hiring me would be mainstream, national sports news, or I'll make it so. There are numerous advantages to hiring me. There are also numerous disadvantages to not hiring me. Do the right thing. Best regard, Ed Arzouian. |

Re: Sub55
Not good to have spelling mistakes in your cover letter, but anyway.
Thanks for the cover letter--was a great laugh. I've never seen a cover letter told the company they are idiots if they don't hire you. Good luck Ed, and Good day sirs. Quote:

I would also point out your further lies. There was no, " restraining order for a year against multiple parties". That is a complete lie. There was a peace-bond for one year The Gazette and I AGREED upon. It was the cheapest and most expedious solution. I did not feel like spending another $10,000 or $15,000 to defend against charges that would be dismissed if I just agreed not to write to The Gazette for a year. What did I care? The Gazette agreed because they knew they had no case and would look very stupid in pursuing the matter. Do you think if they thought they could have won they would have backed down? They were not even paying anything since the Crown was. Do you think they would have done me any favours? They were out to screw me. They dropped it because they had little choice. I have said it numeorus times, I had a valid Firearms permit, I live out in the country, almost everybody here has a rifle or two and a shotgun. The police chose to ignore the valid permit, it made for better headlines. They said and I quote, "We can charge you with whatever we like. Your lawyer can get the charges dismissed". That is exactly what happenned. In the meantime it made for better headlines. Do you think this would be the first time police manipulated the facts? If anybody doubts me, I have the valid permit (now expired) and will fax you a copy if you want to see it. All the story, every piece of it, was fabricated or distorted to suit their purposes. You can bring it up all you want. I will always set the record straight. Last edited by Eddie Arzouian : 23-06.-2005 at 12:06 AM. |
