Saskatoon man urging Trudeau to act for sake of Canadian hostages
A chilling video with a haunting message of ransom – or death.
On Friday, a grainy video was posted to YouTube showing hostages being held by a terror group in the Philippines.
John Risdel, a Saskatchewan man, and three others relay the message that unless their captors get 300 million pesos in a week, around $8.35 Million CDN, one of them will be beheaded.
The video has since been taken down, but Saskatoon’s Don Kossick saw it. He worked with Risdel in the 70’s.
