We
are attorneys for AIG Life
Insurance Company of Canada (AIG
Canada") and its parent
company, American International
Group, Inc ("AIG")
We
direct your attention to two
websites "www.scoreboard-canada.com"
and "www.insurancetraps.com"
for which you are providing
hosting services, and specifically
refer you to those portions of the
aforesaid websites that reference
our clients.
Comments
made by the owner of the websites,
Mr. Ron Hicks, in relation to our
clients are defamatory and
actionable at law. We will
not set out all of the references constituting
defamation but our
clients take particular offence to
the statements that:
1.
AIG and its principals were behind
the 9/11 terrorist attacks;
2.
AIG Canada's president, namely,
Peter McCarthy, conspired with
"others" to oppress,
threaten and intimidate an
employee forcing her to quit her
job;
3.
AIG Canada's president, namely,
Peter McCarthy, and
"others" used fraudulent
methods and bad faith insurance
practices;
4.
AIG Canada used fraudulent methods
and bad faith insurance practices;
and
5.
AIG Canada used fraudulent methods
to force an individual named
Margaret Hicks to quit her job
with AIG Canada.
There
are numerous other comments on the
websites which are false,
defamatory and intend to injure
our clients' reputation and
business.
Demand
is hereby made that you forthwith
take all steps necessary to cease
any distribution of such
defamatory content, including
without limitation, any
distribution occurring by way of
your delivery of hosting services
to Mr. Hicks or his corporation
Scoreboard Canada Inc. with
respect to the above referenced
websites. Our clients have
indicated to us that no legal
action will commence against you
if you provide your undertaking to
comply with the foregoing demands
with respect to the foregoing on
or before November 21, 2008 and
continue to compel with such
undertaking.
I
trust the above is clear and that
you will take whatever action
possible to mitigate damages
suffered by AIG and AIG Canada.
Yours
very truly, Blaney McMurtry
LLP
