ICBC DECLARED ME "WORTHLESS" IN THE AFTERMATH OF MY DECEMBER 1986 ACCIDENT
More than just job records, which there were, and the letter rating my training program's excellence and the AAA Industrial Credit Rating from the Bank of Nova Scotia as a result of my owning and operating Advanced Method Jewellery Manufacturing; at Otter Point there was visible evidence of my work which was two houses, one burnt down, while I was working at the same time in Victoria at an Automobile sales job.There is also my installation and production operation of my wife`s business Chocolate and Vanilla Belgian Chocolate Desserts.
I was injured in two accidents I did not cause in 1967 and in 1970 and denied my paid for ``out of work insurance``. I had to withdraw my pension monies after the 1970 accident and live on that in poverty while I was virtually paralyzed or had severe Tonic Immobility or Collapse Immobility.
The tactics of the Insurance Companies which delay payment for years leave the unfortunate disabled accident victim without money or earnings and without any infrastructure to work within.
The existing infrastructure which supported and made employment possible was not physically at first and then not administratively available to me.
Many years later I was able to finance and build a business, Advanced Method Jewelry Manufacturing. I sold it and I had Gold Bullion and Manufactured Inventory to pay for half of the property cost and the rest of my inventory would have been worth enough to pay the remaining Thirty Thousand Dollars I owed. Financing and building Infrastructure was required to have the Factory to work in. Getting my job back would have been less work, not required financing and would have been just as lucrative.
MY LAWYER BARBARA YATES SEEMED INCLINED TO GO ALONG WITH ICBC`S ASSESSMENT OF MY WORTH, SHE WAS OFFERED $3000. BY ICBC TO COOPERATE.
My lawyer actually approached me to agree to accept $0 settlement so ICBC could pay her $3000. for her time. She had probably spent two hours listening to ICBC defame me and ten minutes in total, talking with me on two occasions.
Post script: I wonder if Barbara Yates did spend two hours talking to ICBC, that is just a flippant statement, "'two hours. $3000"; possibly it took only two minutes for them to agree that I was worthless.
I had also experienced that the only persons who knew the value my services were my immediate supervisors or my customers. No ICBC Accident Investigator nor any Lawyer nor Police valued my ability.
