Candid Comment Video Edition - The Q'Anon Queen of Canada (updated)

Romana Didulo,  is the focus of this comment.  The self proclaimed Queen of Canada has created quite a stir in Canada and is causing a whole lot of headaches for families and officials across the country.  So what should be done to intervene before someone gets killed?

Just to give you a bit of insight, Romana Didulo is a Filipino immigrant who arrived in Canada at age 15.  As an adult she has attempted a few business ventures which have not been very successful.  Eventually diving into the Q'Anon world where we find her today.  She developed her brand calling herself the Queen of Canada, she is anything but a Queen.  

In fact she is more or less a con artist who has duped people into foregoing paying loans for homes, cars and other bills.  It has been reported that followers of this bizzare woman have had homes foreclosed on, property repossessed and utilities switched off for non payment.  She has made death threats, and left people stuck in rural parts of the Maritimes. The most dangerous off all the stunts pulled by followers, an attempted arrest of police officers in Petorborough ON.

Canada's House of Commons and how it is structured.  Also of note is our levels of government.  And lastly the judicial systems in Canada. 

Police officers are sworn to protect and uphold Canadian federal, provincial and municipal laws.  As such they are guided by the laws of the land including those governing them.  Yes it is legal to arrest someone in Canada, known as a Citizens Arrest, this part of the law allows under certain guidelines for the temporary detainment of a person.  NOTE you should never do this unless you are sure it is safe to do so and also legal.  NEVER EVER attempt to arrest a police officer.  You will be arrested and could get injured or killed trying that.  You should report misconduct by an officer to their department and the various policing oversight agencies.

Update March 24th 2023

YouTube declared the video commentary to be in violation of it's policy.  This is most likely due to a frivolous complaint, probably by some Q'Anon supporter.  Because of this I have removed the content from YouTube and also from this site.
