These are the worst 25 criminals and suspected criminals still at large in Canada. Accused killers and psychopaths allegedly peddling misery, drugs and guns.
And they could be living next door to you.
On Wednesday, the BOLO Program announced updates and new additions to their roster of Canada’s Most Wanted. The Montreal press conference had a decidedly French flavour but fear not, the suspected killers from the GTA still dominated.
Since the program kicked off, 30 of the 70 people featured by the BOLO program on Canada’s Most Wanted list have been arrested and it is national in scope, even though the feds haven’t clued in.
“We all have a role to play in public safety,” BOLO boss Maxim Langlois told reporters. “When you call police [on one of the BOLO fugitives] the cases are all ready to go to court. They are just looking for the suspect’s location.”
Leading the hit parade in the GTA is 28-year-old Adrian Walker, who took fourth place in the Top 25. He is wanted for the May 7, 2024, double shooting in Oakwood Village that left Trevor John Dalton, 31, dead. Also charged with first-degree murder is Kemyan Franklyn, 20, of Toronto.
Providing some Tdot girl power is Katherine Bergeron-Pinzarrone, 27. The Mississauga resident is wanted by York Regional Police for second-degree murder in the stabbing death of a 16-year-old Montreal boy in August.
But the most wanted suspects are two men accused of being central players in a renewed Quebec drug war and BOLO is offering a $250,000 reward in both cases.
The new top dog is Dave “Pik” Turmel, suspected kingpin of Quebec’s Blood Family Mafia, or BFM. Turmel is wanted for substance trafficking, conspiracy, and assault with a weapon by cops in Quebec City.
“Dave Turmel and BFM are willing to do anything to take control of drug trafficking, not only in Quebec City but throughout eastern Quebec,” Quebec City Police Service Chief Denis Turcotte said.
“Dave Turmel, wherever you are, it’s not too late to turn yourself in. If you don’t, we will find you, we will arrest you, and we will make sure you face justice.”
Runner-up is alleged drug trafficker All Boivin. He is wanted by the Sûreté du Québec.
“The timing of this Bolo Top 25 Update is very appropriate for Quebec’s police services because the new list prominently features two individuals who have been at the centre of recent violent events in our province: Dave Turmel and All Boivin,” SQ Chief Johanne Beausoleil alleged.
“We are noticing a shift in Quebec’s organized crime, marked by conflict and violent incidents to gain control of drug trade territories. Such violence is not tolerated in Quebec.”
B.C. organized crime hitman Rabih Alkhalil, who infamously busted out of a B.C. prison in July 2023, is wanted by the RCMP for murder, being unlawfully at large murder, and conspiracy to commit murder. He is described as a “very dangerous criminal.”
He had been on trial for first-degree murder at the time he went on the lam. He was convicted.
Also repping Toronto on the all-star roster of rogues is Phillip Grant, 34. He is wanted for second-degree murder in the Jan. 4, 2022, double shooting of two Mississauga men — 24-year-old Minyali Wur and 20-year-old Chudier Reat — at an Etobicoke business plaza.
Cops believe he is hiding in the GTA but Grant allegedly surfaced for a weekend shootout in Windsor last summer.
