March 19 2021
Edmonton: EPS investigators have laid additional child pornography-related charges against a 26-year-old Edmonton man who ran an unlicensed day-home operation in southeast Edmonton in 2020.
Detectives began an investigation into Nicholas “Nick” Baglole-Gaudet, 26, of Edmonton, in September 2020, after child pornography allegations involving the accused were brought to their attention.
Investigators executed warrants at Baglole-Gaudet’s southeast Edmonton residence on Sept. 9, 2020.
Baglole-Gaudet was initially charged with one count of possession of child pornography and one count of accessing child pornography. Investigators have since laid additional charges against the accused including producing child pornography (x4), voyeurism and one count of breach of conditions for using a cell phone.
Investigators believe there may be additional complainants and as such are releasing a photo of Nicholas “Nick” Baglole-Gaudet. Parents whose children may have attended this southeast Edmonton unlicensed day home are encouraged to contact the EPS at 780-423-4567 or #377 from a mobile phone.

Protecting the right to vote for Canadian citizens: Minister McIver
Minister of Municipal Affairs Ric McIver issued the following statement in response to Calgary City Council’s vote to extend the right to vote to permanent residents:
“Yesterday, Calgary city council passed a motion advocating for permanent residents to be extended the right to vote in civic elections. Alberta’s government has been clear since the beginning: only Canadian citizens are able to vote in civic elections. That will not be changing.
“The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms affirms the right of every Canadian citizen to vote and to run as a candidate. This right extends to voters in municipal, provincial and federal elections.
“Protecting our democracy is of the utmost importance. Our provincial election legislation, like the Local Authorities Elections Act, has also been clear since its inception that voting is a right of Canadian citizens.
“Alberta’s government is also ensuring that voting is accessible for more Albertans. The Municipal Affairs Statutes Amendment Act proposes to enable special ballot access for any voter who requests it, without having to provide any specific reason such as physical disability, absence from the municipality or working for the municipal election. The ministries of Seniors, Community and Social Services and Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction are also making it easier for individuals to obtain the identification Albertans need for a variety of services, including the ability to cast a ballot.
“Our government will continue to protect the integrity of our elections and make sure voting is accessible for all Albertans who are Canadian citizens.”
