the Disappearance of Mekayla Bali | Part 2 | Developments, Updates, and Unanswered Questions

In April 2016, sixteen-year-old Mekayla Bali vanished from Yorkton, SK after a day marked by strange movements, unsettling interactions, and a timeline that remains one of the most detailed and puzzling in any Canadian missing persons case. Over the years, this story has continued to evolve and Mekayla’s disappearance has stayed in the public eye through surveillance video releases, reported sightings, and the relentless efforts of her family to find answers. Now, on the 10th anniversary of her disappearance, this two-part series presents a fully re-edited and updated version of prior Canadian Gothic episodes on the case, bringing together the known timeline, the key developments, and the questions that still remain unanswered. In part two we are joined by Madelayne Klein to discuss a series of significant developments in the case that had surfaced in the years after the interview with Paula Bali we featured in part one.

Matthew Baillie Begbie — The Hanging Judge

Episode 416: Matthew Baillie Begbie (1819–1894) served as the first judge of mainland British Columbia during the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush, arriving in 1858 as the colony struggled to impose order across a fast-growing and often violent region. Known to many as the “Hanging Judge,” Begbie presided over cases from Yale to Barkerville, travelling long distances to hold court in mining towns and settlements. His legacy remains contested: some describe him as a firm and capable judge working within the limits of colonial law, while others point to cases like the 1864 trials and executions of six Tsilhqot’in men following the Chilcotin War as evidence of a system that failed Indigenous people. Here, we examine Begbie’s life, his rulings, and the lasting impact of his role in shaping justice in British Columbia.

The Greatest Canadian: Sir Frederick Banting

A few weeks ago we decided to find out, out of 32 individuals, who listeners thought should be on the new $5 bill. The overwhelming choice was Sir Frederick Banting, the co-discoverer of Insulin. Today, we are doing a special episode on Sir Frederick Banting, including speaking with the curator of his former home, a descendant of his, and listening to some vintage audio from the people who knew him.

The Baldoon Mystery | 1800s Haunting in Ontario

In the early 1800s, a quiet farming family in southwestern Ontario found themselves targeted by one of Canada’s most bizarre hauntings. It started subtly, with unexplained noises and objects moving on their own, but the disturbances quickly escalated into something far more violent, destructive, and unusual. Desperate for answers, the McDonald family turned to religion, paranormal investigators, and eventually to a young girl said to possess second sight for a solution. Was the Baldoon Mystery the work of a poltergeist? a curse? a gifted storyteller? Or something else entirely?… that’s a debate has been raging on for nearly 200 years.
