Blackmail‽

Welcome back to Canadian Criminal Law 101, class. Today we're going to talk about blackmail - which is really just a flavour of "extortion". Once again, I remind you that I am not a lawyer and that I learned this stuff about an hour before writing about it, so there may be some errors here (which is why I link to things written by actual lawyers, to corroborate what I am telling you). If you are a…

Election Watch: The Final Countdown

I offer absolutely zero apologies for the earworm , by the way. I briefly considered trying to photoshop Bill & Co.'s faces into a Europe album cover but decided against it, mostly because I don't want to look at all of their faces as much as would be required for that, but also because I'm lazy. Maybe those are the same reason; I don't know. Just use your imagination, I guess. You get to pick…

Never Too Stupid to Be True

The saying goes: "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". The same cannot be said if something sounds too stupid to be true - in that case (and especially where Bill & Co. are concerned), if it sounds too stupid to be true, it probably is true . You might think that there's no way the things I've been telling you here are true, but I assure you they are, and I have receipts. Or, in this…

Bill vs. Taxes

You lye, you are not sure; for I say, Woman, 'tis impossible to be sure of any thing but Death and Taxes — Toby Guzzle, in Christopher Bullock, The Cobbler of Preston, p. 21 (1716) Today I bring you news of an entirely predictable event; one precipitated by the fact that Bill Denby is a grifter, and most of the people with whom he surrounds himself are also grifters. We all know Bill isn't the…

Stolen Pallor

Bill lies . Bill lies without pause. Bill lies with gusto. Bill lies a lot . The list of things Bill has lied about, if type-written in a 12 point, single spaced font, would probably stretch to the moon and back. I've documented many of his lies on numerous occasions, but there's one lie I really haven't dug into... until now. If someone who lies about having Indigenous ancestry is a Pretendian,…

Bill's Not Here, Man

A caveat: I don't know precisely what Bill's current release conditions are - meaning I don't have a copy of the order or anything; I've just heard second- or maybe third-hand what they are, from several sources, and those sources don't completely agree, so it's hard to say for certain whether or not Bill is colouring outside the lines right now. Additionally, though I have requested information…

Tuesday Update

Whew, did I ever get a lot of emails today. And it was all about this: This morning, multiple readers reported that "something" was happening at the Denby Compound. I initially heard reports of Fire, OPP, and Municipal Enforcement vehicles. My interpretation of that is that one or more inspections were likely taking place, rather than it being a response to any kind of emergency. Given what…

GUESS WHAT

I don't have any other details I can provide at this time (and there will certainly be a publication ban anyway, what with his big trial beginning August 24), but I can confirm that Bill was arrested yesterday and spent the night in jail (again). Just in time for another holiday. I think he's trying to collect them all, like Pokemon or something.

Mayor Norm?

I still owe you another genealogy deep-dive, but it's going to have to wait (again) because there has been a development (of sorts). We all know that Bill can't run for mayor this time around - not because he may have cheated on his nominations documents in the Ward 5 by-election last year, but because he didn't submit his campaign finances (again). Which isn't stopping Bill from involving himself…

Court Update, Election Update, Etc.

Sorry for the prolonged silence. I've been working on another post (a different, not-this-post post) that does another delve into Bill's family history (this time, looking at some other questionable claims he's made about his ancestry), but a few things of interest have come up in the meantime and I feel that I owe you all an update on that nonsense first. And so, without further ado, the updates.…

Dragstrips, Island Themes, and Lawsuits

Not for the first time (or the second, or the third, or probably the tenth or twentieth), this past week I found myself wondering "what the fuck is a NASSPORT EXPLOSION, anyway?" My best guess is that Bill is trying to evoke the idea of NASCAR racing. NASCAR, if you are unfamiliar, stands for "National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing". So, no, that doesn't help us make sense of "NASSPORT",…

Bill’s Grift Parade: Church/Tribe/Resort Edition

Bill will be in court later this week. He's got a trial scheduled for June 4th, relating to his breach of a recognizance charge from last year (when he, Steve, and a few others "protested" at a Flato event where City Council members were scheduled to attend - y'know, people Bill has to stay away from). I've heard that most breach charges don't really go anywhere, but I live in hope - and if it…

Playing Catch-Up

It's been a busy week or two (work, mostly - not so much with Bill & Co.) so I'm only just catching up on their nonsense now. Apologies if you've been waiting for a new post! Spirit Warrior! A friend messaged me on Saturday to let me know that they had spotted some fresh Glenn "Spirit Warrior" Bogue content on CanLII . Sounds to me like he's about to have his license to practice law fully revoked…

Saturday Update

It is Saturday May 9, which means we are just two short days from Bill's next attempt to convince a judge that: Canada isn't really a country The fake First Nation he made up is real, actually He is the Hereditary Chief of that fake First Nation (that is real , he swears !) The prior three points somehow, magically, mean that the Ontario Superior Court (and, in fact, no other court in the country)…

Let's Talk Municipal Politics

Nominations opened today for the 2026 Municipal Elections! I know what you're thinking - OH NO (or possibly OH YES), BILL'S GONNA RUN!!! Haha, no, no he is not . And neither is Angel Godsoe! (She's in the 2022 Candidates in Default section on that same page). As you may recall, Bill attempted to run in last year's Ward 5 by-election, but never made it onto the ballot due to, uh, irregularities…

State of the "Nation"

It has been said that what you put into the world is what you get back from it. I suspect there is a lot of truth to that; and it may help to explain why Bill is now being sued by yet another person. As you know, I frequently check the Ontario court case listings to see if anything has changed with Bill's court dates, and I also check to see if any new Denby-related civil suits have appeared. And…

AIN = OPCA

We're starting this post off with a reader submission. Hats off to those of you who have acquired new hobbies and interests because of this blog - and particularly to those of you who have bookmarked specific searches on CanLII (and who forward me the fresh results from those searches, when they are of interest). The entirely fictitious Alliance of Indigenous Nations (AIN) is the fever-dream of…

Double Dumbass

I've got a question for you. How stupid do you think Bill is? Is he stupid enough to believe nobody will question why he suddenly started telling people he was Indigenous in his senior years? Yes, obviously. Is he stupid enough to think he can tell a judge that he went to law school and practiced as a lawyer in New York from 19 to 29 years of age? Well, yes, we know he is because we saw him do it…

Bill Is Revolting

I'm going to make a long story short with a bit of conjecture: Bill is broke and can't afford to pay his taxes anyway, so he's jumping on Norm Traversy's Tax Revolt bandwagon. (There's a good chance that Traversy is also broke, but I really haven't dug into that at all so that's just a guess). This is the dumbest re-enactment of the Boston Tea Party that I've ever fucking seen. The Boston Tea…

Enjoy the Silence

Bill's been so quiet lately, I'm starting to think he "forgot" to pay his phone/internet bill. Nothing on Facebook since March 21 (when he re-posted a link to the Rumble video where he accuses the OPP of attempting to assassinate him while he was in custody following his arrest in 2024). An entire week without anything new! That hasn't happened since he was in jail. Wait, he's not in jail again,…

If, At First, You Don't Succeed

Practice makes perfect, right? Maybe, eventually, one day, if the courts keep letting him talk, Bill will figure out how to... do stuff in court... without being immediately shot down. Try, try again, Bill. You would think that someone who allegedly (according to his own account, anyway) went to law school in New York and was called to the bar at the tender age of 19, and then allegedly (again,…

What Time Is It, Mr. Lone Wolf?

You can always tell when Bill is stressed out about something, because the volume (and length) of emails drastically increases. It's like he thinks he can keep the (hopefully) inevitable consequences of his actions at bay with a torrent of malformed sentences and misspelled words. Or maybe he thinks he can just convince the powers-that-be that he's not fit to stand trial - not even for breach of a…

Failure to Comply

With Bill's breach-of-release-conditions trial set to be heard this coming Friday, now is the perfect time to review the events that led to that arrest. On May 15 of last year , a contact emailed me to tell me that Bill and his buddies had set up a "protest" near a Flato event on Highway 36 at Hillside Drive, where the mayor and various councillors were set to appear later in the day. A few hours…

Return of the Bear-Poker

No, this is not an off-colour joke about Bill's fascination with giving his friends vaguely homoerotic fake Indigenous names (like naming Steve "Big Bear"). I am talking about his intermittent habit of intentionally and intensively aggravating (or maybe just attempting to aggravate) the Chiefs (and Councils) of the Williams Treaties First Nations, and referring to this post from April, 2024. In…

De Facto Chief Brother Steve

When Bill and Steve broke up (for the third time, I think?) in January, I assumed it would be like their previous break-ups, and the bromance would reignite in short order. Amazingly, that does not seem to be the case. It is now nearly the end of February, and not only have Bill and Steve remained consciously uncoupled, but Steve has gone off and named himself the De Facto Chief of his own tribe…
