About Margaret Hick's employment with AIG and events that led to her termination and claims of bad faith practices by AIG Life Insurance of Canada.

(27) September 11, 2002: E-mail to: Blaney, McMurtry

Suggesting I (Ron Hicks) would voluntarily take down the articles from the website if Margaret received monies from the short-term disability plan that she was entitled to. Also, AIG would agree to resolve this issue within a certain time frame and we would not proceed in Criminal Court.

(28) September 19, 2002: Letter to Tower Administrative Services

(1) Employment statement form (second copy signed and mailed - they claim they did not get the first one, yet it was in with the Doctor's forms they acknowledged receiving)

(2) Form 14 (Mental Health Act) completed.

(3) Signed letter from Margaret's Psychiatrist stating, Margaret was too ill to work. It made clear that Margaret is depressed and cannot work for an indefinite period of time.

(4) The Doctor's report on Margaret's condition from their first meeting of August 22nd, 2002 was also included.

(29) September 20, 2002: E-mail received from Blaney McMurtry

The e-mail claims to be in response to my e-mail of Sept. 11, 2002 but the attachment deals only with procedures to claim disability benefits, not with my suggestions (27.)

(30) September 23, 2002: E-mail from Blaney McMurtry

More Ostracism practices

Demands Ron Hicks remove the articles from Scoreboard's website or they have instructions to commence legal action immediately.


(31) September 23, 2002: Cheque received for claim submitted in June 2002

TAS made a statement that medical benefits Margaret was entitled to under her benefits plan would not be paid until her claim was approved by AIG.

(A) It took almost 4 months for Margaret to receive a cheque for $22.50. The claim was submitted on June 27, 2002.

(B) We were told by TAS that Margaret would not get any medical benefits that were submitted until her claim for short-term had been approved. This cheque was sent because Margaret ( via phone) was able to convince TAS that it was for a regularly schedule appointment for her Lichen Planus injection.

(C) For medication Margaret was forced to rely on free samples from her Doctors and welfare to pay for her prescriptions after we ran out of money. Note: we cashed in all of our locked-in RRSPs and with my (Ron Hicks) medical problems I have not been able to earn an income to cover for the loss of Margaret's income.

(D) We never had the monies AIG stated Margaret owed in their letter dated March 26, 2003.


(32) September 23, 2002: Letter received Blaney McMurtry to Ron Hicks

This letter is the subject of an e-mail dated Sep. 20, 2002. In addition to dealing with procedures for applying for short-term disability payments, it also states regarding the short-term benefits "that these benefits are paid for by AIG."

(33) September 23, 2002  Letter to Mr. Peter McCarthy (President) AIG Life Insurance of Canada from Ron Hicks

This letter explains Margaret health condition and why we suggest an out-of-court settlement with AIG.

(34) September 26, 2002: Letter from Blaney McMurtry

More Ostracism practices

(A) A copy of another letter they sent to Look Communications' lawyer that is false in nature and defamatory to Scoreboard Canada Inc. and Ron Hicks. They were trying to get Look to take Scoreboard's website down.  However, Look did not agree with AIG's statement that the website defamatory.

(B) Follow up, letter to Look. but Look still did not comply because they did not have the authority to take Scoreboard's website down. 

(35) September 27,2002: Letter received from Mr. Peter McCarthy President and Chief Executive Officer AIG

Advising us to forward all correspondence regarding AIG Life of Canada and Margaret Hicks to their legal counsel, at Blaney McMurtry.
