The woman who has declared herself the “Queen of Canada” has been arrested, according to RCMP in Saskatchewan.
Saskatchewan RCMP Insp. Ashley St. Germaine said it had executed a search warrant after receiving a report on Aug. 25 that someone inside a privately owned, decommissioned school in Richmound, Sask., was in possession of a gun.
Police said during the execution of the warrant 17 people were arrested. Of those taken into custody, 10 were inside a privately-owned, decommissioned school while six were arrested from RVs that were on the property and one person taken into custody outside a residence in the village.

According to St. Germaine, they located and seized four replica handguns.
She also confirmed that Romana Didulo, who has declared herself the “Queen of Canada,” was among those arrested.
“So what I can say is that one of the individuals that was inside the building identified herself as Romana Didulo, which was as I understand livestreamed as it happened,” St. Germaine said. “So she presented herself and identified herself as that and released it to the public so I can confirm that she is in custody.”
RCMP say no one has been charged at this time, but all 17 remain in custody.
