The Crown has stayed charges against a conspiracy figure who calls herself the “Queen of Canada.”
Court documents show the Crown entered stays on two charges that were brought against Romana Didulo.
The first of those alleged that, on or between July 18, 2025 and Aug. 31, 2025, she intended to provoke a state of fear in four “justice system participants.”
The second charge alleged that on Sept. 4, 2025, she failed to comply with a condition of an undertaking by speaking to someone listed in a non-contact clause.
The stays were entered March 17 in Swift Current provincial court.
Responding to an inquiry regarding the decision to stay the charges, a Ministry of Justice spokesperson wrote via email: “After careful consideration, Public Prosecutions has concluded that based on the evidence gathered, there was not a reasonable likelihood of conviction.”
For Public Prosecutions to move forward with a charge, it must be in the public interest to proceed, and there must be a reasonable likelihood of conviction.
“Public Prosecutions knows the decision may be disappointing for many, but it is important to uphold the legal standards that govern prosecutions and rule of law,” the email states.
Didulo and her “Kingdom of Canada” group made national headlines in the fall of 2023 when they entered Saskatchewan and entrenched themselves inside a former school building in the village of Richmound.
The mayor of the community of less than 200 people issued a plea for government help in October 2023.
The problem, as then described by Mayor Brad Miller and other local leadership, included anonymous violent threats that were thought, but not proved, to have come from the group. The threats sometimes included reference to execution, a menacing reference to the school in Fox Valley where area children attend, and the filming of village residents by members of the group.
Didulo was charged alongside Ricky Manz — said to have been the owner of the former school — following a police raid on the property in September 2025.
A charge of intimidation of a justice participant brought against Manz was also stayed, according to the Ministry of Justice.
