‘When Has a Cult Ever Turned Good?’: Richmound Mayor Describes Aftermath of Raid

Mayor Brad Miller describes ongoing sewage issues and community fear after the cult raid that led to multiple arrests and health officials declaring the compound uninhabitable.

  • Earlier this month, Mounties raided the Kingdom of Canada cult compound in Richmound, Saskatchewan, seizing 13 imitation semi-automatic handguns, ammunition, and electronic devices.
  • Local officials pursued bylaw complaints and other measures, with the village council repeatedly trying to remove the group under nuisance and commercial building bylaws while owner Ricky Manz failed to pay utility bills.
  • After the raid, children in Richmound avoided the nearby playground, and Miller said cult members barricaded the purple-coloured school-turned-compound with cameras and bright LED lights.
  • Authorities arrested Manz, Didulo and others during the raid, and Didulo faces justice system charges while being granted bail Monday with conditions to stay away from Richmound.
  • Sewage water still seeps near the compound entrance despite occupants being driven out, Didulo urged followers to stop paying bills under 'natural law,' and Miller worries the Kingdom of Canada may return.
