Why are these men victims of Canada's first serial killer?Scott Stockdale
February 21, 2018
Three men - who disappeared between 2010 and 2012 - are recently - and only recently - being identified as victims of alleged serial killer Bruce McArthur.

Powell a war hero or a war criminal?Scott Stockdale
October 20, 2021
