Tiny B.C. town on edge because of one man who ‘terrorized the whole community’

Haida Gwaii is an idyllic archipelago with lush rainforests, rugged terrain and wave-caressed beaches. It’s a paradise.

And for some, it’s been a hell.

On Thursday, Masset — a village nestled on the shore of a northern coast inlet — was abuzz with anger, fear and frustration after a man who has reportedly harassed, assaulted and threatened members of the community for years allegedly went after two people with an axe. He was subdued by Darin Swanson and his son, Jordan Holt, after they say he attacked them.


There is no good reason this nut should be on the streets.
