  Shafia Granted Limited Parole | Canada News

  Sep 19, 20262 min

  Hamed Shafia, convicted of four first-degree murders in a chilling 2009 honor killing spree, has been granted a limited escorted leave from prison — a tiny step forward after serving over a decade. The victims, his sisters and his father’s first wife, were found drowned in a car along the Rideau Canal. Despite claims by surviving family members that they were simply lost on a trip, forensic evidence pointed squarely to their involvement. While Hamed shows some signs of remorse, officials warn any reintegration must be slow and cautious. His sentence carries no chance of parole for 25 years — a grim reminder of how deadly toxic ideologies can become when they collide with modern values.

  Father and Son Lost in Tragic Collision | Canada News

  Sep 19, 20262 min

  A heart-wrenching tragedy struck Camrose County when Dayce Newman, 35, a beloved volunteer firefighter and owner of Hauler for Hire, and his 13-year-old son Xander, died in a motorcycle collision with a pickup truck on Highway 21. Known for his big heart and tireless service, Dayce was a devoted dad to six kids in a blended family, with Xander always by his side—whether on the road or at home. His mother, Tara Vanderwal, finds strength in the community’s outpouring of love, while a witness shared that Dayce was conscious and breathing at the scene. The RCMP investigates the crash, with a reconstructionist on the case and potential charges against the 78-year-old pickup driver still pending. In tribute, a memorial ride and service are set for September 25th, honoring a father and son whose bond was unbreakable—until now.
