Corporate State Capture and Structural Violence: A Comprehensive Intelligence Assessment of the Irving Hegemony and Framework for International Criminal Accountability
Abstract
This intelligence assessment maps the systemic "state capture" of the Province of New Brunswick, Canada, by the Irving Group of Companies. Utilizing open-source intelligence (OSINT), the report details how a century of strategic vertical integration has subordinated public policy, media narratives, and regulatory oversight to a single family dynasty. The assessment provides the evidentiary and legal basis for a formal submission to the International Criminal Court (ICC) under Article 15 of the Rome Statute. It alleges that the Irving hegemony constitutes a widespread and systematic attack on the civilian population through "Other Inhumane Acts" (Article 7(1)(k)) and "Modern Structural Slavery," characterized by: • Monopsony Labor Market Control: Suppressing wages and collective bargaining through dominant employment power. • Fiscal Extraction: Moving resource wealth to offshore havens (Bermuda) while socializing environmental and infrastructure costs. • Regulatory Capture: Manipulating Crown land management for industrial fiber production at the expense of ecological health and Indigenous title. • Environmental Predation: Systematic exposure of the population to glyphosate and industrial toxins, contributing to elevated cancer rates and neurological health crises. The report concludes with a framework for "State Retrieval," recommending the transfer of land titles to Indigenous Nations and the transition to a "post-predatory" economic model anchored by the Universal Declaration of Organic Rights (UDOR).
