Very interesting article! I'm not Canadian, and clearly you've done much investigating on this subject. I hope one day you will give the missing and their families some resolve and peace. Thank you for making those of us who are unaware, aware evil exists everywhere and that it trickles down in all directions.

Thanks! That means a lot to me. I'm really not joking about how this story affected my mental health. I now fully believe that journalists who work on certain stories can develop PTSD even if they themselves are not victims.

We really should appreciate people like Marc from Dark Mind Detective (formerly Vancouver True Crime). It's not pleasant feeling like you have a responsibility to make people care about something horrifying...

In my opinion, Pickton was just the disposal guy for the perverts in high places. His release was too close to a certain upcoming federal election to allow to happen. Trudeau, from what I’ve read, only lived a mile or so up the road and frequented the parties held there.🤷‍♂️ Make of that what you will, but it warrants further investigation IMO.

I don't know about Trudeau, but the hypothesis that Pickton was the disposal guy for higher-ups rings true. I remember something similar in Dave McGowan's book Programmed to Kill, which was also about a case where scores of remains were found on a farm. Might even be the same case.

And certainly when/where there is a cover up or concealment/destruction of info/evidence this would tend to point towards protection of VIPs - if it really was just a lone psycho then there is no logical reason to hide anything, aside from police ineptitude perhaps - or in this case a racist attitude leading to a couldn't care enough to investigate kind of mentality.

Hmm... Trudeau lived in Port Coquitlam? That's news to me...

I know TikTok isn’t the most credible news source but it isn’t the only place I ran across this.🤷‍♂️ https://www.tiktok.com/@just_peachy1.0/video/7319936620050779398

What's a skinny rink?

whoops! that was a typo. I meant to say "shinny rink". It's an outdoor rink used for playing pickup hockey.

"Shinny" refers to the fact that in pickup hockey you're not supposed to raise the puck above the level of the shin when you take a shot. So basically no taking slapshots at people who aren't wearing hockey gear. Pucks hurt!

Ah - now that explains it. I thought it might be something to do with hockey. Obviously, being English, we don't do ice hockey. I did field hockey when I was at school though - I mean the one you play on a grass pitch with a ball rather than a puck. And naturally it's all so very, very jolly! Hurrah for our school! Hurrah!

I just finished your part 2 btw - hurry up with part 3 because I am really quite riveted by this narrative.

Thanks! I'm really glad that this is of interest to people outside Canada.

This case needs international attention. There are thousands of people who have gone missing in Canada since the 1980s, and most Canadians are in denial about it.

Ah - or is it not on the ice, but some other surface? Sorry for my ignorance. I know a puck is like a flat thing, isn't it? But yes - hockey can get a bit dangerous at times, not just if you whack people on the shins with your stick but if you are the school bully and you deliberately shoot the ball at people.

A rink is a sheet of ice. a puck is a flat, disc-shaped piece of hard rubber (probably synthetic now).

What the hell is the matter with British people lol? Hockey is by far the best game in the whole world. How could you not know what a puck is?

lol. I was being a bit teasing because I do know what a puck looks like (sort of), although it always reminds me of Shakespeare. You're quite right though, there is a lot the matter with us British (as you'll doubtless see when most of them put that arsewipe Starmer into number 10).

When I say "at night", I should specify that it gets dark at 5 p.m. in the winter in Canada (around the Winter Solstice anyway).
