Didulo, or “Queen Romana,” is an odd determine. An unemployed lady who’s believed to be in her 60s, she got here to prominence after Q, the central determine within the Qanon conspiracy, disappeared in 2020. She referred to as herself the true Queen of Canada and claims to be working a secretive struggle on behalf of Canadians in opposition to a cabal of sinister elites.

Extra to the purpose, she satisfied quite a lot of her devotees to comply with her on a cross-country drive in late January that has not stopped even at the moment. For a lot of weeks, one of many RVs in her convoy was the one she rented from the LeBlancs.

After studying who they have been renting their RV to, they began following her progress. Issues didn’t appear too dangerous till a fee dispute emerged in October, after the tires had to get replaced. Offended with the LeBlancs, Didulo posted the household’s telephone numbers and call data to her followers with a purpose to intimidate them.

After that, Didulo and her followers reduce off all communications, so the LeBlancs threatened to report the automobile as stolen. They declare, although, that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) have been no assist.

Thankfully, in early November, they acquired a textual content from somebody representing Didulo informing them that their RV had been dropped off at a gasoline station 120 miles (200 km) away from their house. The couple drove out to select up their automobile, however issues solely acquired worse from there.

Firstly, Didulo’s staff by no means advised them the place the keys to the RV have been (it turned out that they had been taped underneath it). Thankfully, they introduced a spare key, however as soon as inside, they realized that their automobile had been trashed. {Hardware} was damaged, and the automobile was a pigsty.

“They simply left it in a large number. They didn’t trouble to scrub out their meals or the rubbish or a few of their provides,” Leblanc mentioned. “Inside there was like meals all over the place. I feel there was a sleeping bag they left behind. They left their sardines, naturally.”

As they drove the automobile house, they realized that the suspension was broken, too, because the automobile was leaning closely to 1 aspect. All in, the LeBlancs determine that there are millions of {dollars} in injury to their RV, to not point out the additional cash that Queen Romana owes them for mileage overages. Sadly, at this level, the LeBlancs don’t actually know what they’ll do about it.

“I don’t even know on the finish of the day if it’s price pursuing. Like authorized motion by way of small claims courtroom or if it’s higher simply to chop our losses and cease losing our time,” mentioned LeBlanc. “I see on the weekend, she raised 1000’s to pay for her RV that she is using in. Perhaps she may share the wealth and pay for a number of the damages for everyone else’s RV.”
