FOLLOW-UP TO THE #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER 22 MURDERSThe truth about the deadliest criminal incident in Canadian history has remained untold—until now.Investigative journalist Paul Palango's 22 Murders examined the April 2020 shooting spree committed by Gabriel Wortman that began in Portapique, Nova Scotia, and ended thirteen and a half hours later when Wortman was shot dead by RCMP officers. The episode left numerous serious questions in its wake—most especially why was the killer able to evade police in such limited geography for so long?Since then, the government called a public inquiry into the massacres—the Mass Casualty Commission. Though Palango unearthed a treasure trove of evidence pointing to the possibility that Wortman or someone close to him was acting as a police agent, the commission evaded all the big questions and let the RCMP off with a slap on the wrist. To this day, no one has been held accountable.In his new book, Palango continues to crack the case, delving deeper into the evidence and testimonies of the witnesses who have been ignored. Drawing on his vast experience as an investigative reporter, he has mined the thousands of pages of commission documents to reveal the wall of secrecy and deceptions constructed by the RCMP and the criminal justice system, exposing new facts that may alter the public's perception of what really happened.A tour-de-force of reportage, Anatomy of a Cover-Up accomplishes what the commission set out to do—uncover the truth about the Nova Scotia massacres and bring long overdue justice to its victims. ANATOMY OF A COVERUP: The Truth about the RCMP and the Nova Scotia Massacres—Paul PalangoReplyForwardAdd reaction

In this special episode in advance of the June 10th book release, author Paul Palango and Adam Rodgers discuss Anatomy of a Cover-Up: The Truth about the RCMP and the Nova Scotia Massacres.This book is a follow-up to Paul's bestseller, 22 Murders, and can be ordered here;https://www.indigo.ca/en-ca/anatomy-of-a-cover-up-the-truth-about-the-rcmp-and-the-nova-scotia-massacres/9781039010123.htmlPaul and Adam go through 11 excerpts from the audio book, including new revelations about Wortman's escape from Portapique, an explosive letter from the judge who was the head of the police oversight organization SiRT, and evidence that Wortman may not have killed one of the victims.

A spine-chilling look into one of Canada's most notorious mass killings. Today's story takes place in Portapique, Nova Scotia- an idyllic community nestled on the beautiful shore of Canada's Bay of Fundy. It's where wealthy denturist Gabriel Wortman decides to call home. Gabriel is a prominent resident and highly regarded by his many neighbors for his generosity and helpful nature – not to mentions the great parties he throws at his expansive man cave. But as new neighbor Lisa McCully gets close to Gabriel, a much darker and dangerous side of him emerges, and soon the whole community is living in terror of him. Tragically, their fears are justified when his criminal enterprise falls apart and an unfathomable mass murder spree is unleashed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This Easter weekend marks the 5th anniversary of the NS mass shooting. I look at the changes since that time, focusing on the recommendations on the treatment of domestic violence. I preview this weekend's Dispersing the Fog episode, which will feature special guest, Scott MacLeod.In the Supreme Court of Canada, arguments were made on an interprovincial travel case that arose during the pandemic. Kim Taylor was looking to travel from NS to St. John's NL for her mother's funeral in May of 2020, but was denied entry. The SCC heard arguments on section six of the Charter, which deals with movement between provinces. I analyze the arguments, and predict how the Court will decide the case.Finally, I review the justice portions of the leadership debates from the past two nights, and observe how one of Mr. Poilievre's final answers at the debate reminded me of Eric Lindros' MVP speech from the 1995 NHL awards.

We unveil the name of the show, discuss Trump/border/fentanyl, Portapique civil suit update, Wayne Gretzky, Truro Police racism accusations, The Oscars, and more!

The community of Portapique has officially opened a new special trail located right next to their community centre. The trail was created in partnership with multimedia artist Holly Carr. It's an extension of her book, "The Comfort Tree", which is a story about a variety of forest animals and birds finding comfort around a tree through all four seasons. As you walk along the trail, you find panels depicting scenes from the book. Host Jeff Douglas went to the community of Portapique to see it, and check in with some community members. The first voice you'll hear is Holly Carr, taking him on a tour of the trail itself.

On the cold spring morning of April 19, 2020, a woman staggered from the woods outside Portapique Nova Scotia. Her bare feet were blackened from running through the woods, and she was covered in scrapes and bruises. She hammered on the door of a neighbor, who let her inside and called 911. She told police something had finally snapped in her abusive common-law partner Gabriel Wortman. But by the time she made that phone call, he'd already murdered 13 people and his rampage was far from over.

Poor communication, a victim treated as a suspect and a police force that was unprepared — these are some conclusions about the RCMP's handling of Canada's deadliest mass shooting. Today's guest, Angela MacIvor, an investigative journalist with CBC Nova Scotia, talks about how more than half of the commission's 130 recommendations focus on the RCMP, and asks whether the force will be forced to implement real change. For transcripts of this series, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

The inquiry into Canada's worst mass shooting has ended with the release of its final report. The 3,000 page document condemns the RCMP in how the police force responded to the tragedy where 22 people were killed in Portapique, Nova Scotia, in April 2020. A number of recommendations call for a complete overhaul of Canada's federal police force in the hopes that a tragedy like this never happens again.The Globe's Lindsay Jones is a reporter at the Atlantic bureau who was there as the final report was released to survivors, family and community members as well as government and police officials. She joins the podcast to share the main takeaways from the report and whether the RCMP will take these recommendations seriously.Questions? Comments? Ideas? Email us at thedecibel@globeandmail.com

For nearly three years, Nova Scotians have been waiting for answers surrounding the 2020 mass shootings in Portapique. On Thursday, they got some of them from a long-awaited public inquiry's report. Matt Galloway speaks with Darcy Dobson, whose mother, Heather O'Brien, was killed that day; and Michael Scott, a lawyer representing Dobson and others who lost family members in the attacks.

The Mass Casualty Commission will publish its final report Thursday, after an inquiry into the 2020 mass shooting that left 22 people dead in Nova Scotia. We visit Portapique, N.S., where a new community hall is under construction; and Matt Galloway speaks with grief specialist Serena Lewis, about the long-term supports that the community might need.

I am joined by Sam King. Sam is a Clinical Social worker, Registered Nurse and a Pyscho Therapist at the Operational Stress Injury Clinic in Nova Scotia.

We discuss at length how the OSI clinic can help you and others! We also discuss the importance of recognizing and understanding your childhood trauma. This is often times a large motivating factor for people to get into Law Enforcement or First Responder work. Sam also experienced the very real impacts of the tragedy that struck Portapique, Nova Scotia in April of 2020. She recounts how much this impacted the community, its members and everyone invested in supporting one another not only during the event but afterwards as well.

In the weeks following the 2020 killings of 22 people in Portapique, Nova Scotia — the deadliest shooting rampage in Canadian history — the federal government began introducing steps to limit the types of guns people can own and use. There were orders in council, which began with a list of more than 1,500 firearms, before more were added, and later a piece of proposed gun control legislation, Bill C-21. That bill had two readings in the House of Commons, before a major 478-page amendment was added. The changes have drawn more criticism to what was already a contentious bill, as some question whether it's too broad and will affect too many types of guns. On today's episode, we're joined by Kieran Oudshoorn, a producer with CBC's audio documentary unit, to walk through Liberal government's plans for gun control.

Thirty-three years ago, 14 young women were murdered and 13 others were wounded in the École Polytechnique tragedy. Hear why Kristina Fifield, with the Avalon Sexual Assault Centre, says as we remember those women we should also be thinking about the Portapique tragedy.

Our conversation covers; the death of Portapique survivor and past Nighttime guest Leon Joudrey the recently announced lawsuit Lisa Banfield filed against the RCMP for malicious prosecution the Mass Casualty Commision's release of what many people are referring to as victim impact statements.

The man responsible for the mass killings in Nova Scotia in 2020, preyed on vulnerable and Black women through his work as a denturist, according to a report submitted to the Mass Casualty Commission. We hear from the Avalon Sexual Assault Centre.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail. Please welcome back to the pod Paul Palango for our follow-up conversation about a true crime story, a tragedy, and what Paul describes as a cover-up involving a killer rampaging across the tiny community of Portapique, Nova Scotia, late on April 18, 2020. Mr. Palango is an author of three books on the RCMP and a frequent commentator over the past 27 years on RCMP issues. He's also a former senior editor at The Globe and Mail who now lives in Chester Basin, Nova Scotia. His most recent book is: "22 Murders: Investigating the Massacres, Cover-up and Obstacles to Justice in Nova Scotia."  Join us as we go deep into what the book describes as "a shocking exposé of the deadliest killing spree in Canadian history, and how police tragically failed its victims and survivors." Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast. Please take a moment to give us a rating and review on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts or your favourite podcast app.

CBC's Blair Rhodes tells us about a highly anticipated witness who is scheduled to testify at the Mass Casualty Commission this week.

In this week's episode, we're talking to Lauren Villagran, who generally covers border issues for the El Paso Times. But she recently crossed a different border — the U.S./Canadian border — to take on an issue that is near and dear to the hearts of El Pasoans and fronterizos. Lauren traveled to Portapique, Nova Scotia, where, one night in April 2020, “in the time it took for the Bay of Fundy's high tide to drain into the Atlantic and swell back up again to the wooded coast,” as Lauren wrote, “a deranged man gunned down 22 people in their homes and on the street, in Portapique and the idyllic communities that line the west shore.” As Lauren notes, there were echoes of El Paso's Aug. 3, 2019, mass shooting tragedy nine months earlier: the same number of initial victims, a shooter with easy access in the U.S. to "assault-style" firearms, a hashtag ending in "strong." But Canada's response was much different from those in Texas and across the United States. Lauren was kind enough to join us this week to discuss her trip, and her reporting.

Warning: This podcast contains graphic content Guest: Farrah Khan, manager of Consent Comes First at Toronto Metropolitan University The inquiry into Canada's worst mass shooting has put a spotlight on how survivors of intimate partner violence often face anger and backlash. After Lisa Banfield was brutally assaulted and held captive by her common-law husband one night in April 2020, 22 people were killed as he went on a murderous shooting rampage. Countless people were impacted by devastating trauma, pain and anger as a result of the gunman's actions, and Banfield was put under a harsh spotlight. Gender rights advocates say Banfield was unfairly criminalized, criticized and accused of abetting the shooter, and her own trauma as a victim of abuse was never acknowledged. There are now concerns the reception to Banfield will deter other women from reporting abuse. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Brian Bradley and Matthew Hearn

The Liberal government faced tough questions this session on everything from accusations they pressured RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki on the Portapique investigation, to their decision to invoke the Emergencies Act in the winter, to inflation. Today, CBC Parliamentary Bureau senior writer Aaron Wherry explains why those questions won't just disappear over the summer, and why the Liberals are “arguably in as difficult a stage as it has maybe ever been, which is a funny thing to say for a government that's been through some pretty major crises.”

You will no doubt be shocked to learn that the federal liberal government may have tried to politically influence an agency that should be independent. Who would have thought? Evidence released at an inquiry into the Portapique massacre seems to indicate that government officials the RCMP commissioner to release information about a weapon used by the shooter.We don't know yet if the request came from the government, or the commissioner herself. We don't know yet if the Prime Minister or Public Safety Minister were personally involved. But what do we know? What needs to happen next? And will this divert attention away from an incredibly important inquiry into the worst mass shooting in Canadian history?GUEST: Stephen Maher, Nova Scotian journalist and novelist, writing in The Line

The Liberals and RCMP commissioner Brenda Lucki are denying they colluded to release have the RCMP release information about their investigation into the Portapique, Nova Scotia massacre to support the government's gun control efforts, despite a report from the inquiry into the shooting revealing that Lucki promised Bill Blair and the Prime Minister's Office that the police would do exactly what. True North's Andrew Lawton speaks to former RCMP officer Andy Brooke, as well as Conservative emergency preparedness critic Dane Lloyd.

In short? That it was a huge mess. But that's not enough. An inquiry is trying to get to the bottom of the police response to the worst mass shooting in Canadian history, and around every corner seems to lurk a new detail about delays, misinformation, too many commanding officers and, above all, inaction.As Canadians learned in horror how police in Uvalde, Texas stood by while a shooter was murdering children in a school, they didn't have to look hard for a Canadian example of how utterly a response to a gunman can be botched. So what are the details? What do we still have to learn? And will there be any change, consequences or closure?GUEST: Greg Mercer, Atlantic Canada reporter, The Globe and Mail

In 2020, bucolic Portapique, Nova Scotia was the epicenter of a gruesome rampage that would take 22 lives in 13 hours, making it the largest mass murder in Canadian modern history.

The inquiry into the deadliest mass shooting in Canada's history continues this week. Two years ago, a gunman dressed as an RCMP officer burned down houses and killed 22 people in Nova Scotia. CBC reporter Elizabeth McMillan explains how tracing the story of how the Portapique gunman got his weapons brought her to Houlton, Maine. And retired U.S. federal prosecutor Margaret Groban talks about how Maine is considered a source state for guns.

A shocking exposé of the deadliest killing spree in Canadian history, and how police tragically failed its victims and survivors.As news broke of a killer rampaging across the tiny community of Portapique, Nova Scotia, late on April 18, 2020, details were oddly hard to come by. Who was the killer? Why was he not apprehended? What were police doing? How many were dead? And why was the gunman still on the loose the next morning and killing again? The RCMP was largely silent then, and continued to obscure the actions of denturist Gabriel Wortman after an officer shot and killed him at a gas station during a chance encounter. Though retired as an investigative journalist and author, Paul Palango spent much of his career reporting on Canada's troubled national police force. Watching the RCMP stumble through the Portapique massacre, only a few hours from his Nova Scotia home, Palango knew the story behind the headlines was more complicated and damning than anyone was willing to admit. With the COVID-19 lockdown sealing off the Maritimes, no journalist in the province knew the RCMP better than Palango did. Within a month, he was back in print and on the radio, peeling away the layers of this murderous episode as only he could, and unearthing the collision of failure and malfeasance that cost a quiet community 22 innocent lives. 22 MURDERS: Investigating the Massacres, Cover-up and Obstacles to Justice in Nova Scotia-Part 2-Paul Palango

Voilà maintenant deux semaines qu'a commencé l'enquête publique sur la tuerie de Portapique, en Nouvelle-Écosse, la pire fusillade de masse de l'histoire moderne du pays. Le 18 avril 2020, en l'espace de 13 heures, 22 personnes ont été abattues froidement par un homme se faisant passer pour un policier. La journaliste Héloïse Rodriguez nous explique pourquoi les proches des victimes craignent de ne pas obtenir réponse à leurs questions.

Yanik Dumont Baron fait le point sur le bombardement d'un hôpital pour enfants de Marioupol, en Ukraine; Mathieu Papillon s'intéresse aux audiences de la Commission des pertes massives sur la tuerie de Portapique, en Nouvelle-Écosse; et Louis-Philippe Ouimet présente son reportage sur le 100e anniversaire de l'écrivain Jack Kerouac.

This week at Nova Scotia's Mass Casualty Commission, excerpts from police radio recordings gave an insight into efforts to catch the mass shooter who killed 22 people on April 18 and 19, 2020, in Portapique. Matt Galloway talks to CBC reporter Elizabeth McMillan; MLA for Colchester North Tom Taggart; and Christian Leuprecht, a professor of political science at Royal Military College and Queen's University.

It's the worst mass killing in Canadian history, and there are hundreds of questions still unanswered almost two years later. A public inquiry into the Portapique shootings is happening right now, and the early answers to some of those questions are disturbing. What more will we learn about how many lives could have been saved? Will RCMP officers actually agree to testify at all? And what about the killer's rumoured connections to the RCMP itself?How much of this mystery will we unravel? And how bad will it get?GUEST: Greg Mercer, Atlantic Canada reporter, The Globe and Mail
