Please donate to support our investigation into Canada's church arsons!

Right now, Rebel News' Alexandra Lavoie is in Bathurst, New Brunswick, where Gilles Mallet — the man accused of burning down Saint-Simon Catholic Church, believed to be the largest wooden church in the province — is due in court to enter a plea deal. Alexandra flew in from Montreal, and with no rental cars available in Bathurst, she's relying on taxis to reach Saint-Simon and speak with the local French-speaking community about what they lost.

When a church burns in a small town most newsrooms have never heard of, Rebel News shows up. Since the wave of church burnings began in 2021, our journalists have flown across the country to be first on the scene: Drea Humphrey to the site of two burned churches on First Nation land in B.C.'s southern interior, David Menzies to a torched church in Grande-Anse, New Brunswick, Ezra Levant to the ashes of century-old churches in Carman, Manitoba; Maugerville, New Brunswick; and Saint-Romain, Quebec, and now Alexandra Lavoie to Bathurst, New Brunswick. We don't wait for the CBC to get around to it.

Our journalists document these attacks, speak with community members and clergy, and demand accountability from the politicians and the RCMP who refuse to take this seriously.

This kind of journalism costs money — flights, fuel, accommodations, and the resources to keep investigating every new incident across this country. If you believe this work matters, please chip in to help cover our reporters' travel costs, including Alexandra's trip to Bathurst, and keep Rebel News on the road, shining a light on a crisis the mainstream media would rather you never see.
