My Treaty 8 True Crime Podcast will start releasing (at my own pace) October 2026 on my Youtube.com/ - other platforms (spotify, apple) later. I am so far investigating & researching the deaths & disappearances of Arshanda Knowhisgun (Montana USA), Preston McDonald (Janvier/Anzac, AB), Bring Carter Rogers (O'Chiese, AB), Bryon Watson (Maple Creek, SK) & Joel Judd (Slave Lake, AB) I don't know how long I will do this for. I just know I felt a calling to try & make a difference. I do not charge the families any money & I only cover stories families approve, out of respect. Please email me with tips, insights, story suggestions, and/or relevant evidence at [email protected]

Statement by the Minister of Justice on the passing of the Honourable Ritu Khullar
From: Department of Justice Canada

Statement
“Today, we mourn the loss of a respected jurist and leader, the Honourable Ritu Khullar, Chief Justice of Alberta, Chief Justice of the Court of Appeal for the Northwest Territories, and Chief Justice of the Court of Appeal of Nunavut.

Chief Justice Khullar served Canadians with compassion, integrity, intelligence and humility throughout the course of her exceptional legal career.

In private practice and then as a judge, she poured her values and her passion into her work, never wavering from her firm belief in fairness, the rule of law, and justice for every member of our society.

The role of Chief Justice is one that requires sound judgment, a wealth of knowledge, and a profound understanding of the importance of a fair justice system. She used the position to advance access to justice and protect the Court’s institutional independence.

Chief Justice Khullar’s many contributions will surely inspire us as we continue to work together to protect our democracy and build a justice system that serves all people with fairness and humanity.

May her remarkable legacy provide her loved ones with comfort and peace in this time of sorrow.”
