Proof that Serial Killer and Rapist Paul Bernardo was a Freemason in the Grand Lodge of Ontario, Canada





Rotating Compass & Square












Bernardo Bernardo Bernardo Bernardo Bernardo

Grand Lodge of Ontario, Canada Master Mason, Serial Killer, and Serial Rapist Paul Bernardo
'Freemasonry takes good men and makes them better'

At one point Bernardo was on the top of the Police Department's suspect list when he was terrorizing women in the Toronto suburb of Scarborough with his years long rape spree.

Police strangely never completed his D.N.A. test until three years later when contacted by Niagara Police detectives, even though premliminary tests had showed he was one of the only five out of several hundred suspects who whose blood type had fit the initial screening test done from semen samples collected from the victims. When his DNA test was finally done it was a perfect match!

Unfortunately by then Bernardo had graduated to his grisley rape-mutilation killing rampage with his depraved wife Karla Holmolka.

There are so many inexplicable oversights in the police investigation related to Bernardo including specific repeated complaints by some of Bernardo's former girlfriends that police discounted because after the initial interviewing of Bernardo they said he didn't seem like a serial rapist. Furthermore the witness i.d. sketch made of Bernardo, which was an exact likeness of him, was not released by Police for years after the rapes had started.

Did some members of Bernardo's Masonic Lodge who were also members of the Metropolitan Toronto Police recognize the likeness portrayed in the artist's sketch of the Scarborough Rapist?

Did the large Police Officer Masonic Lodge Membership cloud some Detectives judgement about 'Brother' Bernardo's suitability as a suspect? How many Scarborough Police Officers were members of Scarborough Rapist Paul Bernardo's Scarborough Masonic Lodge?

Did the intelligent, cunning, and manipulative Bernardo invoke his 'Masonic Cable Tow' and 'Sign of Distress' to escape arrest, or sideline the investigation?

Is Freemasonry the missing piece to the puzzle of how the Police could have failed for so long to stop Bernardo, including the ignoring of repeated tips about him, that has raised so many questions in the public's mind?

Just ask the famed British Brinks Mat gold bullion criminal Kenneth Noye. He intentionally joined a Masonic lodge filled with police officers to give him the extra "edge" he needed.

This is a shame that Bernardo was once a member of the craft. The photo is only available in print, in today's Toronto Star.

While there is no clear evidence either way, the wearning of a Masonic ring should not be considered as proof of one's affiliation.

Whether or not Paul Bernardo was wearing a Masonic ring is irrelevant. It was well established he was a Mason who was expelled from the craft but not after years of criminal activities..

And the point is being made: you just do not know who joins your craft..until criminal activities are proven in a court of law..

Discussing the ring in his case does seems to be the usual game some of you play here....which isn't very honest after all...

Sorry Eric. I was raised in the Rouge Valley and went to the rival high school of Bernardo. In fact I worked with Bernardo at The Keg on Estate Drive (Markham and the 401; he used to walk the girls out to their cars at night. I know one of the girls that he attempted to rape in a walkway between houses on Port Union Rd and Lawrence Ave; Bernardo was scared off by a car.

I lived in the area that he was stalking. I believe he also was involved in the Elizabeth Bain killing, my older brother went to U of T (Scarborough Campus) with Rob Baltovitch and Elizabeth Bain. Bain's father came over to sit with my Parents and my Brother in our kitchen a week after she disappeared. Such a sad state of affairs. Bain and Baltovitch attended the same Church and the day she went missing she was seen in Colonel Danforth Park with a tall blonde man. They found dumarier cigarettes in her car with the radio set to The Edge, CFNY 102.1. Niether Elizabeth nor Rob smoked, they did not listen to 102.1 and Rob could not drive a standard transmission. Bernardo smoked that brand, listened to 102.1 and drove stick. See the pattern?

One of Metro Toronto's Forensic's squad was our neighbour, in fact the Star had a photo of him in his whites coming out of the 57 Bayview home in St. Catherines. Out of respect for him I will not mention his name. Initials were B.W.

I grew up and lived in the centre of this storm, as did others in the Community. That said, I can without any hesitation proclaim that Paul Bernardo was a Mason. It is unfortunate, yet it is reality. His Lodge used to come into Kelsey's at Markham and Ellesmere where I worked in 1990-92 for wings and a few wobbly pops.

The worst part is that you would never know you were working/sitting beside a psychopath. Down right sobering.

I suspect few outside Canada would know. The only reason it might register on someone's radar screen is not for the case itself, but over the huge media battle to fight gag orders on revealing information. The best way to get the media to report a story is by telling them they can't report a story :)

'On the Square'

From: "J" [email protected]
To: [email protected]
Subject: Additional information
Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2006

In regards to the Paul Bernardo issue, It may be of interest to know that during the time of the investigation, the then Toronto Police Chief McCormmick was and still is a Mason. This was brought to light to myself when I met another individual who was also a Mason who was showing some pictures of him shaking hands with Police Chief McCormmick at their lodge and in this picture Chief McCormmick was dressed in a fine suit and wearing a Masonic Apron. This may have contributed to Bernardo's being considered less of a suspect at the time. While I have no proof outside a conversation and seeing some pictures, I do believe that Chief McCormmick was a Master Mason.





Fraternal Order of Police

The F.O.P. - 'The Fraternal Order of Police'
The Masonic symbology ("all seeing" eye, black and white tiles, triple turrents etc.) and terminology (Grand Lodge, Brethren, etc.) used by the premier Police Association is no co-incidence.

Of all the professions the law enforcement and intelligence community have the highest percentage of members who are Freemasons. This also is no co-incidence as Freemasonry intentionally seeks out new recruits who it finds the most useful.

Unfortunately criminals have long been aware of this, and the more sophisticated have used Freemasonry in their continual attempts to corrupt the justice system and 'gain an edge'.

It is for this reason that the British Government has recently put in to place a registration system for all police officers, judges, magistrates, prosecutors, prison guards, and parole officers in the U.K. who are 'on the level'.

You see? That was not so hard, was it?

Bernardo was expelled, his status is now "expelled Mason".

In this Jurisdiction, Mike, Code 469A allows our Grand Master to expel a
Mason, without a Masonic trial, who has been convicted of a felony. FYI.

Thanks for this information. I'm glad to learn that Mr. Bernardo is not

I never had any reason to believe otherwise.
I was astonished that anyone would believe otherwise,
and especially that a Mason would suggest otherwise.

But I did want to make absolutely sure of my facts, after
Ed King had made his suggestions.

Perhaps now Bro. King will explain what he had in mind when he
played the Bernardo card?

In Poker, it's called a bluff. The problem is that we have been playing Chess.
In Chess, it's called a fake or sometimes a sacrifice. Comparing bro. Mike
Restivo to a murderer for the sake of demonsration is like obviously going to
have periferal impact. The authors knew this and did not hesitate to run it.
This is reminiscent of the time Brethren on this newsgroup implied that they
were in fear for their physical safety at the Philalethes convention after bro.
Mike Restivo posted a list of his LAWFUL remedies (including a picket protest)
to what he perceives as an infringement on his rights. Exageration by
extension. They plant the seed counting on the reader to "make the leap" in
association and not realize that this was by design or even having an affect.
The backpeddal as we have already read is "I never said that!" Of course they
didn't. They could have kept it hypothetical too but that would not have the
desired effect. Good for you for not being fooled. I cannot believe that with
all the information we have pouring in from anonymous brethren in Canada,
Bernardo the murderer is the best and only example of "demitted in good
standing" we could come up with. Of coure, we now know that Bernardo is not
even that, thanks to your efforts. Perhaps now, the GL slamming will cease.

The Grand Lodge of Canada in Ontario


The Grand Lodge of Canada in Ontario expelled their Brother Bernardo only long after he was imprisoned, contrary to the many claims of Freemasons.

You will also note the glib tone that these Masons use, and how they never discuss the victims of Brother Bernardo nor whether his Masonic Lodge membership affected the heavily Masonic Toronto P.D.'s investigation.

In fact the entire discussion in the original thread below is 'shaded' to obscure Bernardo's involvement in Freemasonry.

The Grand Lodge of Ontario refuses to release more details, including which members of the Toronto Police Department investigating the case were Freemasons, which likely did play a roll in delaying the thorough investigation of suspect Brother Bernardo. How many victims were raped or murdered because Freemason Cops put their "Brother" at the bottom of the suspect list because Bernardo was 'On the Square'?

Membership of secret societies such as Freemasonry should require mandatory declarations, if not having membership being banned outright because of Masonry's history of deception on who is and who is not a member, for all Police Officers and employees of the Criminal Justice System .

This is an issue whose time has come. Worldwide.
