106. Canada’s First Suicide Bomber: The Story of The Kenora Bomber

Many times in the past we have covered cases of missing people and we have covered cases of victims who were not identified after years had gone by.  This week we are going to cover something a little bit different.  One of Canada’s longest standing mysteries encircles the case of Canada’s first ever suicide bomber in Kenora, Ontario.  The man entered the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce with the intent to rob the bank and a series of circumstances led to a sudden death when the bomb detonated and the entire thing was witnessed by many people who had arrived at the scene to watch the action.  Who was the man that robbed the bank that day and lost his life in the streets of Kenora?  Fifty years later nobody knows.  GBNF on Patreon GBNF on Facebook GBNF on X GBNF on Instagram GBNF on YouTube GBNF on TikTok Intro Music: Provided by Gallagher Music
