Romana Didulo - 4 - The People of RICHMOUND, SK. VS. QUEEN ROMANA

from The Canadian Gothic · host CanadianGothic / Curiouscast

In a past episode, I shared the story of Romana Didulo, the Pilipino immigrant who, from a bedroom in a Victoria, BC boarding house, convinced a surprising number of Canadians that she is the true queen of Canada and our Kingdom's commander in chief. Via a series of follow up episodes we also heard how she and her followers attempted a sort of twisted siege of a Peterborough police station. Despite the failed arrest of a police force, Romana Didulo and her followers haven’t slowed down. Earlier this month they arrived in Kamsack, Saskatchewan with plans to rebuild the town under Didulo’s rule only to be chased out of town by locals… but they didn’t travel far. The Queen and her followers are now sheltering in an abandoned school house in the town of Richmound, Saskatchewan and the towns people have been circling it in protest almost since their arrival. In this episode, we are joined by Tom who produces the guerilla news site Community TV. When the protests started in Richmound Tom was there.
