    the Disappearance of Mekayla Bali | Part 2 | Developments, Updates, and Unanswered Questions

    In April 2016, sixteen-year-old Mekayla Bali vanished from Yorkton, SK after a day marked by strange movements, unsettling interactions, and a timeline that remains one of the most detailed and puzzling in any Canadian missing persons case. Over the years, this story has continued to evolve and Mekayla’s disappearance has stayed in the public eye through surveillance video releases, reported sightings, and the relentless efforts of her family to find answers. Now, on the 10th anniversary of her disappearance, this two-part series presents a fully re-edited and updated version of prior Canadian Gothic episodes on the case, bringing together the known timeline, the key developments, and the questions that still remain unanswered. In part two we are joined by Madelayne Klein to discuss a series of significant developments in the case that had surfaced in the years after the interview with Paula Bali we featured in part one.

    The Baldoon Mystery | 1800s Haunting in Ontario

    In the early 1800s, a quiet farming family in southwestern Ontario found themselves targeted by one of Canada’s most bizarre hauntings. It started subtly, with unexplained noises and objects moving on their own, but the disturbances quickly escalated into something far more violent, destructive, and unusual. Desperate for answers, the McDonald family turned to religion, paranormal investigators, and eventually to a young girl said to possess second sight for a solution. Was the Baldoon Mystery the work of a poltergeist? a curse? a gifted storyteller? Or something else entirely?… that’s a debate has been raging on for nearly 200 years.

    the Disappearance of Deeanna Erickson (Last Seen June 6, 2025 | Calgary, AB)

    UPDATE: Calgary police have confirmed that Deeanna’s remains were discovered on April 16, 2026, and have stated that her death is not considered criminal in nature. Our thoughts are with Shelby and all of Deeanna’s loved ones during this difficult time. When Deeanna Erickson boarded a bus in Calgary on the night of June 6, 2025, something went wrong. Surveillance footage shows the 31 year old visibly distressed, crying and rocking back and forth, before suddenly stepping off in the Walden area, more than 10 kilometres from her home. She hasn’t been seen since. In this episode, I’m joined by Deeanna’s sister, Shelby Erickson, who shares the story of that night, the search that followed, and the ongoing fight to find answers.

    The 2025 Canadian UFO Survey (with Chris Rutkowski)

    In 2025, more 1052 UFO sightings were reported across Canada, an average of one every eight hours. In this episode, we are joined by Canadian UFO researcher Chris Rutkowski to break down the findings of the 2025 Canadian UFO Survey, an annual report that collects and analyzes sightings from civilians, researchers, and government sources to better understand what people are seeing in Canada’s sky. The discussion unpacks the common characteristics such as colour and shape, where reports are coming from, when they are most commonly seen, why Nova Scotia stands out, notable cases, and how things like satellites, drones, and social media are changing what we think of as a UFO.

    the Murder of Paul Schmidt (the Starbucks stabbing) and the piece of crap that filmed it

    This week on The Canadian Gothic, we’re revisiting a case that continues to unfold in the headlines. Due to travel, we’re taking a short break from new releases, but rather than leave you without an episode, we’re bringing back our coverage of the murder of Paul Schmidt, a shocking and deeply disturbing act of violence that unfolded in downtown Vancouver on March 26, 2023. In broad daylight, outside a busy Starbucks, Paul was attacked and killed following a brief confrontation while standing with his young daughter. The incident, which was partially captured on video and widely shared online, left a lasting impact on the public and raised difficult questions about violence, bystander behavior, and the justice system. At the time of this original episode, many details were still emerging. Now, as the trial of the accused continues to work its way through the courts, this case is once again in the spotlight. This rerelease offers an opportunity to revisit what happened that day, and to better understand the events at the center of a case that is still unfolding.

    Obama, Trump, the American UFO Files, and witness reports of UFOs Above Canada

    In this episode, we break down a truly unexpected UFO story. A recent interview with former U.S. President Barack Obama ended with a rapid-fire round of questions, and one of them, about the existence of aliens, set off a strange chain reaction. The moment quickly spiraled beyond the interview itself, leading to current President Donald Trump announcing a full release of government files on UFOs, and even resulting in Hillary Clinton being asked about the topic during a deposition connected to Jeffrey Epstein. In the episode’s second act, we dig into a collection of listener-submitted UFO sightings from across Canada. The stories include two mysterious cylindrical objects appearing over Alberta, a triangular craft spotted in the sky above Ontario, and a strange, deeply spiritual encounter reported in British Columbia.

    The 1973 Kenora Bank Robbery Explosion

    On May 10, 1973, a stranger walked into a bank on Main Street in Kenora, Ontario, carrying guns, duffle bags, and a homemade bomb that was armed to a switch he clenched between his teeth. For more than an hour the standoff dragged on inside the bank as a growing crowd of onlookers crowded the street outside it’s doors. At 4:12 p.m., a single rifle shot ended the robbery in an explosion that shattered windows, scattered money through the air, and erased the man at the center of it all. More than fifty years later, his identity and his motives remain unknown. In this episode of The Canadian Gothic, I’m joined by Jack Luna, host of the Dark Topic podcast, to examine the Kenora Bank Robbery Explosion.

    the Hockey Canada Scandal (the 2018 Canadian World Junior Team)

    In June 2018, following a Hockey Canada gala in London, Ontario, a young woman alleged she was sexually assaulted by members of Canada’s gold medal winning World Junior hockey team. The case was investigated and closed without charges, and the public remained unaware for years. That changed in 2022, when a civil lawsuit and quiet settlement from the sport’s regulating body Hockey Canada exposed the allegations. The fallout triggered parliamentary hearings, sponsor withdrawals, leadership resignations, and a reopened criminal investigation that culminated in a high profile trial against five of the men involved, all now NHL players. In this episode, I’m joined by Kristi Lee, host of Canadian True Crime, to walk through the full timeline of the Hockey Canada sexual assault scandal and examine what it reveals about accountability, power, and trust in Canadian sport.

    Michael Slobodian and the Brampton High School Shooting (Brampton, Ontario - 1975)

    In May of 1975, a high school in Brampton, Ontario became the scene of Canada's first modern mass school shooting. Sixteen-year-old Michael Slobodian walked into Brampton Centennial Secondary School carrying two rifles in a guitar case and, within minutes, left two people dead, thirteen wounded, and an entire generation traumatized. In this episode of the Canadian Gothic we trace the events leading up to the attack, the moments of terror inside the school, and the survivor stories that have echoed through the decades. This is the forgotten Canadian tragedy that unfolded long before Columbine, a chilling reminder that the roots of modern day school gun violence reach further back, and closer to home, than most realize.
