As I attempted to get on the highway, I discovered that every entrance had a police cruiserstrategically located. I assumed they were waiting for me and altered course just in time andheaded north of the city to use secondary roads. But the northern road had a roadblock, which Icould see from a distance being night time, and once again I was forced to circumvent the cops,barely managing not to be noticed.I drove east throughout the night, heading for Montreal, a distance of 640 KM on the most directroute, but nearly 900KM on the convoluted country roads I was forced to use. If I could haveused the highway it would have taken me 7 hours but instead it took me 10 and I arrived inMontreal at dawn.Before I knocked at the door of my childhood friends, who had recently immigrated fromRomania to Canada, and who luckily live in Montreal, I waited an hour to make sure they are outof bed. They were shocked but happy to see me. I did not have to do much explaining sincethey were already familiar with my battles with the Canadian and British authorities. Withinhours they emptied their bank accounts and gave me $1500 US in cash so I could flee thecountry and seek political asylum somewhere safe. We discussed Costa Rica and Switzerland asoptions. To reach Cost Rica I would have to cross into the US, without being noticed of course.But to get to Switzerland I would have to stowaway on a ship and survive a two week sea voyagewithout being detected. Both are possible but the first option is a lot easier.Concerned that I would not have a decent meal for weeks to come, they fed me royally andshowered me with love and attention. I thanked my lucky stars for having such extraordinaryfriends, both back home in Ayr and Waterloo and in Montreal, for had it not been for their help Imay not have made it out of Canada alive or seen freedom again.We decided to go to the house of our common friend to make sure I am not arrested at theirhouse since the authorities knew of my friends and where they resided, as they had come to courta few months earlier to serve as secondary sureties in case the corrupt Kingston judges would tryto deny me bail, as they had done previously on several occasions, by finding some inventedfault with my sureties.Just a hundred meters from the house, low and behold a police cruiser comes from the oppositedirection and as soon as the cop sees my car he does a turnaround and starts coming after me.But as I watched him in the mirror, I veered to the left and out of his sight as soon as I saw thecruiser turn around and stepped on the gas and went on a wild ride through the quiet morningstreets with the cop hot on my tail. To lose him I took as many turns as possible and then went atbreakneck speed behind a small strip mall as soon as I was out of the cop’s sight. I then jumpedout of car and abandoned it there, walking away from it as fast as I could without lookingsuspicious.No sooner did I turn a couple of corners on foot that I spotted the same cop car driving slowlyand looking on each side of the road for my car as well as eyeing the pedestrians.
