Canadian Mayor Rips QAnon 'Imbeciles' Who Tried To Citizens Arrest Police In Profanity-Laden Tweet

Diane Therrien, the mayor of Peterborough, Ontario, Canada lashed out at QAnon adherents who tried to conduct citizens arrests of police officers in the city before being arrested themselves.

The QAnon followers acted at the behest of Romana Didulo—the self-proclaimed "QAnon Queen of Canada"—who acquired a substantial following by claiming she is the rightful leader of a country at the mercy of a pedophilic global elite.


At least two QAnon adherents are facing charges of assaulting police and resisting arrest and mischief following the stunt, which drew the ire of Therrien, who said on Twitter she hates "giving airtime/spotlight to these imbeciles."

But Therrien went further, declaring,

"Here is my comment: f*ck off, you f*ckwads."

Therrien later issued another tweet requesting those offended by her profanity call her cell phone number and talk to her directly rather than berate her staff.

Many came to Therrien's defense and criticized QAnon and anyone who believes the conspiracy theories associated with it.


QAnon—whose believers allege the world is run by a Satan-worshipping, baby-eating global pedophile ring that conspired against former Republican President Donald Trump during his time in office—has been making waves across the Canadian border.

QAnon gained further notoriety in Canada earlier this year after, at least in part, inspiring the "Freedom Convoy"— a protest allegedly led by Canadian truckers who pushed back against COVID-19 public health measures.

The convoy—comprised of a minority of the country's truckers—retaliated after the United States and Canada agreed to COVID-19 vaccine requirements for truckers to re-enter the country by land. The protest was heavily scrutinized after organizers and groups were linked with White nationalist contingents, QAnon and other far-right groups in the United States.

In February, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau evoked the country's Emergencies Act for the first time since its passing in 1988, kicking off a large-scale operation that ultimately cleared the majority of protesters and dismantled much of the movement.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy Ripped Over Bonkers Idea For How To Bring 'Civility' Back To Air Travel

Sean Duffy—MTV's Real World Boston "party animal"-turned-resigned Wisconsin Republican Representative-turned-Fox News personality-turned-Transportation Secretary for MAGA Republican President Donald Trump—went back to his former employer, Fox News, to reveal the Trump administration's plan to improve air travel.

But it wasn’t rehiring all the air traffic controllers fired or retired by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), or reinstating the airline accountability requirements that Trump revoked, or investigating allegations of abusive behavior by TSA or immigration agents.

Naked Woman Horrified After Finding Maintenance Workers In Her Apartment Without Her Permission

Anyone who has lived in a rental has had the experience of a maintenance worker entering their space, whether it was to repair an appliance or do a general inspection to make sure everything was up to code.

Sometimes these encounters are a little bit awkward while you have a stranger in your home, but other than trying to behave normally while waiting for them to leave, they usually do what they need to do, leave, and that's that.

Elon Musk Dragged After Programming Grok To Claim He's 'More Fit' Than LeBron James

Billionaire Elon Musk was widely mocked after X users discovered he'd programmed his AI chatbot Grok to praise his physique by saying he's "fitter than" basketball star LeBron James.

Musk is actually on record saying that he wouldn't exercise if he could, that he's not been consistent meeting with his personal trainer, and that he would "rather eat tasty food and live a shorter life." But to hear Grok tell it, Musk is more fit than one of the top basketball players on the planet—and smarter than some of humanity's greatest minds.

Daniel Radcliffe Praised For His Incredibly Classy Comments About The 'Harry Potter' Reboot
