Things are afoot. An email that landed in my inbox on Monday is a lot more revealing than Bill probably wanted it to be.

The Cheese Stands Alone
His supporters are abandoning him - including, apparently, one of his sureties. No, not his wife. The other one.

I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, but I've seen an email that leads me to believe that one of Bill's sureties has withdrawn, which might mean he's about to spend more time in jail.

When Judge Wannamaker ordered a Gladue Report prior to Bill's sentencing in November, a lot of people had a lot of thoughts about it. Some didn't know what it was; others felt that ordering it legitimized Bill's Indigenous identity claims. It's... complicated.

Judge Wannamaker ordered a Gladue Report for Bill, which has confused some and angered others.

Hahahahaha Bill must be getting bored; he's started emailing me again. A forwarded email, and another thanking me (sort of?) for... exposing Steve?
This is from a much longer email to someone named Michael, who walks dogs) and is mostly Bill bragging about how smart he is. 

This segment reads:

Michael ?? They know I  will not  use A.I> my self  because I don't like  A.I. it  TERRIFIES ME of what it can do! I personally would never  use  A.I. because  their is no way that I want  A.I.  to have my Brain with a 220 eye Q & a photographic Memory for life THEY WOULD USE IT TO kill off THE  POPULATION  ON EARTH  IF THEY  GOT THIS KIND OF KNOWLEDGE THAT IS IN MY BRAIN!

Michael???? Can you think if they could create an army of Robots that can deal with any issues or problems thrown at them in War to KILL off the Population on Earth! I have other people that go  on A.I. for me  that do excellent work under  my  care to protect me from A.I. Norman, Sack, Bob, Mark & more!And here, he thanks me. Sort of. You're... welcome?

To Whom It Concerns! Monday Sept.21/2026 Thanks to Kawartha Lee " Pants on Fire" for telling the TRUTH, Voters need to know who these LIARS are before they VOTE in the Fall Municipal Election. Your Post   will help in getting out in Public about  LIAR Steve Lesperance, Wenda Atkin & Ron Ashmore  that none of them are fit to be on City of Kawartha Lakes Council in City Hall! They are all LIARS, desperate for Tax Payers Money because they are Broke if they don't get elected!! I heard Steve has a Criminal Record in Manitoba when he was young????

Shelagh McFarlane (a.k.a. "Shelaw Hunter") is inexplicably running in Ward 7 in Kawartha Lakes (according to her nomination docs, she allegedly lives 50 km north in ward 1)
A photo of Shelagh from when she ran for Mayor of Guelph in the 2022 election. She has blonde hair with bangs, large round black-rimmed glasses, and appears to have spent a great deal of time in the sun over her 60+ years

On a more serious note, isn't it alarming that Conservative MPs Blaine Calkins & Dean Allison should welcome on Parliament Hill an anti-vaxxer/grifter/food quack with ties to extremists such as Steve Lesperance, or German far-right MEP Christine Anderson?

Steve Lesperance, who is running for council in Ward 8, is trying desperately to distance himself from his personal albatross, Bill Denby. I find that extremely dishonest.

When Steve says he has no affiliation with Bill, he should be saying that he NO LONGER has an affiliation with Bill, and that the split is recent.

Why do I want to know if Bill understands how subpoenas work and that he needs to get one if he wants to force someone to be a witness? WELL. Ron Ashmore isn't just a source of his - he's also a strong contender for mayor in this year's municipal election.
Email from Bill to his followers, dated August 21 2026:

Just letting  people know lots of time in advance! I have Councilor Ron Ashmore up first to tell the Truth what the Mayor, Council, CAO, CLERKS, City Senior Staff planned to GET ME after we took over the Council Meeting at City Hall! Then they went into closed meeting to make up there FABRICATED STORIES with the Help of KLPS Kenneth Downing, Tom Hickey, Chief, There Municipal LIAR & More were in that meeting! They had a few more private Meeting after that until Ron Ashmore & I met at a International Plowing Match Meeting in Bobcaygeon  on April 24/2024! He told me they were going to get me with Fabricated Charges on April 25/2024!

  Jeff & I were wired when we filed the Complaint at Kawartha Lakes Police Services, Inspector Tom Hickey that I have that Audio Voice Tape of that will blow them out of the WATER that I am going to play when I have Tom Hickey on the STAND in CROSS!! We have 150 video's, 36 Volumes of Evidence,  100 rds of PICS, more Audio Voice Recordings of them spilling there guts to me about all the Corruption in Lindsay City Hall!

Have  a great Weekend! Everybody Doug Shaw has some very serious Leg problems he is dealing with that   if he is not careful could turn into flesh eating  bacteria real fast!! I am ready, Can't wait to rip the LIARS  apart on the Witness stand in CROSS! Thanks ,Miigwech, Hereditary Chief Billy Lone Wolf aka William J Denby LLC

Including operating costs over 40 years without accounting for revenue is just weird. They say in the article they expect revenue to cover expenses. Why not just stick to capital costs, which the story acknowledges are within the stated band (for now).

I've heard that Bill has a list of witnesses he intends to call in his own defence, including Brother Steve (who he is also attempting to blackmail) and mayoral candidate Ron Ashmore. Next week might be *interesting*.

A screenshot from today's Lindsay court docket, showing R. v. D. with the party name D., W. (Denby, William).

He's scheduled to begin at 9:30 for jury selection, with the trial beginning immediately afterward, assuming they can actually get through jury selection.

So Shelagh/"Shelaw" McFarlane/Hunter has thrown her hat in the ring (no, not in Kincardine, or in Guelph, but in Kawartha Lakes this time). She allegedly lives in Norland now (at least, according to her nomination info) and is running in Ward 7 (south of Lindsay).
Map of Ward 7. There's no rule that says you have to live in a ward in order to represent it as your councilor, but I feel like you should actually be close, or have some affiliation with it. Norland is about 50 km north of Ward 7. And I don't actually believe that Hunter lives where she says she does, anyway. A whole bunch of new names on the Ward 7 ballot - Shahla Ghiasi Tarzi, Brook Rouse, and Shelagh McFarlane join early entry Liam Bruyn and ex-ward-5 councilor Eric Smeaton.
