Chatter around Chatham-Kent, Ont., has been centred on a large furry being, reportedly making stops across the community. The Bigfoot Mapping Project, a database for reported Bigfoot sightings, shows sightings in Thamesville, Dresden, and Raglan over the past week. When asked about the reports on Wednesday, Tom Chalmers, an area resident, had a little chuckle. “So, I’ve heard and seen a lot of odd things, but no, Bigfoot has not been one of them, I’m afraid,” Chalmers said. Across social media, posts about a supposed Chatham-Kent sasquatch have generated a lot of buzz, but not everyone is skeptical. “Everything is possible,” Mike Oulds told CTV News.

The Dorval Library in Quebec is inclusive and welcomes all book lovers. For a few years now, one particular visitor has been stopping by every day, and he’s earned himself a special membership card. His nickname is Muffin. He’s five, and he loves the library. Peter and Janet Bjorn live nearby and have a very sociable cat. Sitting in the lobby with his cat, Peter said, “About ten people have come in, so they just go by and say, ‘Hi, Muffin.’ And I ask if they knew him, and they said Muffin is always here.” He’s a regular: part greeter, part ambassador.

A man suspected of starting a massive fire at an Ontario warehouse earlier this week is due in court Thursday. The suspect, 29-year-old Highland resident Chamel Abdulkarim, is set to make his first appearance before a judge at the San Bernardino County Superior Court, where he’ll be arraigned on two felony arson charges. Investigators said Abdulkarim not only started the fire, but he also posted a video of himself allegedly starting it. “There goes your inventory. All you had to do was pay us enough to live,” a man could be heard saying in a video posted to the suspect’s social media accounts, which appears to show him in the moments before he allegedly set pallets of paper towels on fire inside the massive South Hellman Avenue warehouse early Tuesday morning.

In January, behind closed doors at the Pentagon, Under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby summoned Cardinal Christophe Pierre — Pope Leo XIV’s then-ambassador to the United States — and delivered a lecture. “America,” Colby and his colleagues told the cardinal, “has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.” As tempers rose, one U.S. official reached for a fourteenth-century weapon and invoked the Avignon Papacy, the period when the French Crown used military force to bend the bishop of Rome to its will. [UPDATE at 3:15 PM EDT: Letters from Leo can now independently confirm that the meeting took place — and that the Vatican was so alarmed by the Pentagon’s tactics that Pope Leo XIV shelved plans to visit the United States later this year. Some officials in the Vatican saw the Pentagon’s reference to an Avignon papacy as a threat to use military force against the Holy See.]

The proprietors of a now-shuttered Southwest Missouri boarding school are facing a new lawsuit by a former student alleging trafficking across several states, coerced labor, isolation and sexualized punishment while she was underage. The lawsuit was filed last week in the Western District of Missouri Southern Division court by Javairia Yankowy, who says she spent four years at Wings of Faith Academy after being placed in the custody of the school’s owners, Debbie and Percy “Bud” Martin. The lawsuit alleges the couple trafficked Yankowy while running Wings of Faith, which operated alongside Agape Boarding School, another Southwest Missouri Christian boarding school that has faced extensive abuse allegations.

President Trump's budget request to Congress contains the largest counterterrorism spending increase in years — and buried inside it is a new FBI-led center dedicated to “proactively” hunting Americans the government classifies as so-called domestic terrorists. The new center and funding boost represent the implementation of Trump’s National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7), the sweeping federal order I’ve been covering since it was signed last September. Though public opposition to ICE succeeded at forcing the administration to back down in Minnesota — even firing both Kristi Noem and Gregory Bovino — the FBI is doubling down its domestic terrorism obsession. Now, Trump’s budget request reveals, the FBI runs a dedicated “NSPM-7 Joint Mission Center”; with personnel from 10 federal agencies, it is busy “proactively” identifying domestic terrorists motivated by any of the following beliefs: “anti-Americanism,” “anti-capitalism,” “anti-Christianity,” “support for the overthrow of the U.S. Government,” “extremism on migration,” extremism on “race,” extremism on “gender,” “Hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,” Hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on “religion,” and Hostility towards those who hold traditional views on “morality.”
