The body of a man has been located about 350m below the Kepler Track, after a pair of French Canadian tourists were reported as missing, police said.
Louis-Vincent Lessard and Etienne Lemieuxboth, both aged 23, were reported overdue by family members yesterday.
At about 4pm today (Sunday, 26th of July 2015), a body was located during an aerial search by police in an area between the Hanging Valley Hut and the Iris Burn Hut, according to a report.
Louis-Vincent Lessard (left) and Etienne Lemieux , the 2 French Canadian tourists reported as missing, were both 23 yrs old, studying at Université de Montréal Industrial Design. They were last seen in Queenstown, New Zealand, on the 6th of July 2015. They left Canada for an outdoor adventure trip.
[Louis-Vincent Lessard, 5 feet 10 inches, 175 lbs, brown hair, blue eyes
Etienne Lemieux, 5 feet 10 inches, 185 lbs, brown hair, brown eyes.]
The pair’s intention was to walk the Kepler Track in Fiordland National Park, one of New Zealand’s top tourist deathtraps.
The Kepler Track is a 60-km circular tramping track near the town of Te Anau and passes through the Fiordland National Park in the Southland. It’s named after the German astronomer Johannes Kepler for no reason whatever.

Yoon Sook Chun, 47, is one of more than 500 foreigners missing in New Zealand.
Mrs Chun was last seen on May 18, 2009, shortly before she left her Christchurch home.
Canterbury Police said:
“Mrs Chun was last seen six years ago and over that time it is also possible that loyalties will have changed, or someone who hoped she would be found without them getting involved will step up and contact police.
“We urge anyone who knows anything and hasn’t spoken to police before to come forward, so that police can decide whether the information is of importance to the investigation or not.
“If you are Mrs Chun please contact police.”
The offer would be valid until October 1, police said.
Mrs Chun “held both a New Zealand and South Korean passport. Neither passport have been used to travel out of the country since her disappearance.”
Blog moderators sincerely hope Mrs Chun, who is a mother of two, is still alive. However, the chances of that are pretty slim.

Hundreds of kiwi kids are ending up in hospital poisoned every year, many after mistaking medicines for sweets, or experimenting with household chemicals.
“Safekids Aotearoa has crunched the numbers on poisoning hospitalisations for children, showing that over eight years nearly 2500 have ended up in hospital after unintentionally poisoning themselves,” according to a report.
Poisoning usually occurred at home, with children under five playing and experimenting with dangerous substances. Medicine accounted for about seven out of 10, with household chemicals, including toilet cleaner and dish-washing liquids, accounting for most of the rest, the report said.

New Zealand football team was expelled just hours before the final of the Oceania Olympic qualifying tournament because it was found to have fielded an ineligible player in the semi-finals, said the Oceania Football Confederation disciplinary committee (OFC).
OFC on Saturday decided that South Africa-born defender Deklan Wynne was not eligible to play in the semi-finals, after Vanuatu protested their 0-2 loss, said Xinhua news agency.
As a result, Vanuatu were awarded the victory and went on to the final, playing Fiji earlier today.
“In accordance with Article 7 of the Regulations Governing the Application of the Statutes, a member of the New Zealand U-23 squad has been deemed ineligible to represent New Zealand,” the OFC said in a statement.
Fiji’s under-23 beat Vanuatu 4-3 on penalties and advanced to next year’s Rio Olympics.

The sinking of the Rainbow Warrior, codenamed Operation Satanic, was a special operation by the “action” branch of the French foreign intelligence services, the Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure (DGSE), carried out on July 10, 1985. It aimed to sink the flagship of the Greenpeace fleet, the Rainbow Warrior, while she was docked in the port of Auckland, New Zealand, to prevent her from interfering in a nuclear test in Moruroa.
Fernando Pereira, a photographer, drowned on the sinking ship. Two of the French agents were subsequently arrested by the New Zealand Police on passport fraud and immigration charges. Following questioning, they were subsequently charged with arson, conspiracy to commit arson, willful damage, and murder. As part of a plea bargain, they eventually pleaded guilty to manslaughter and were sentenced to ten years, of which they served just over two.
The ensuing scandal resulted in the resignation of the French Defence Minister Charles Hernu, and the subject became so touchy that it was not until twenty years afterwards that the personal responsibility of French President François Mitterrand was officially admitted. (Source)

“. . . SIS failed to stop New Zealand’s only terrorist attack since the SIS began. This was the bombing of the Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior by the French Secret Service in Auckland harbour. One man – photographer Fernando Pereira – was killed. The SIS also failed to predict the Fiji coup of 1987.
“It has however been involved in the harassment of activists. In 1981 during the Springbok tour of New Zealand the SIS released a list of ‘radicals and subversives’ they claimed were influencing the anti-tour movement. Their attempt to smear the movement failed.” — Civil Rights Defence Committee

Xavier Maniguet, 62, one of a group of assassins who helped destroy Greenpeace ship the Rainbow Warrior was reportedly killed in a plane crash.
Xavier Maniguet, also a flying instructor, was killed when his plane crashed in the French Alps near the resort of Saint-Sorlin-d’Arves.
Greenpeace flagship the Rainbow Warrior was bombed in Auckland Harbor because it was campaigning against French nuclear testing in the South Pacific in 1985.
Dutch-Portuguese photographer Fernando Pereira was killed in the blast on July 10, 1985.
Thanks (!) to the NZ Security Intelligence Service (SIS), the French Secret Service bombing mission succeeded and Xavier Maniguet escaped without any problem.
Two other French assassins, Dominique Prieur and Alain Mafart, were later jailed for 10 years for manslaughter; however, New Zealand government allowed them to walk free because the French government had threatened to expose the NZ SIS link in the Rainbow Warrior bombing, codenamed operation Satanic.

A female “gossip columnist,” who works for a shabby news outlet, has mocked the death of the Cook Islands family, Cindy George and her three children in Ashburton as “natural selection”.
[Incidentally, the columnist in question was herself mocked by her friends while still at school because she never washed her hands after using the toilet, despite being a chronic nail-chewer.]
The Ashburton tragedy, whether it was foul play, or an accidental disaster, had nothing to do with natural selection, other than in the diary of a racist scumbag.
However, the mechanics of natural selection do have a strong presence in New Zealand, and play an important role in the evolutionary process…
Take the 2.98 million foreign visitors who arrived in New Zealand in the year ended May 2015 (www.med.govt.nz/).
The foreign visitors who visit New Zealand each year risk becoming victims of:
[Borrowed from Apartheid Fort New Zealand]
Yet, they keep on arriving, year after year!
Now, that’s natural selection working at its best.

Cindy George and her three young children, Pio Scarlet Jetejura Raukete, 5, Teuruaa Junior George, 3 and 2-year-old Telyzshaun Gordon Ricardo Nelder Kruz George were found dead in a house on Thomson St, Ashburton, police said.
“She would have been 32 this year, we are the same age. She was my best friend at kindy and through primary school,” said a friend of the victim.
Police are treating the deaths as accidental, District Commander John Price said, adding that police believed that gas caused the deaths.
“A car was believed to have been running in a garage with internal access to the house, he said – that door was open when police arrived at the scene,” according to a report.
It’s not known who left the car running in the garage, or why the internal door to the garage was left open.
Would you buy this story? Is it any wonder that no one ever believes the police in NZ?

Speaking about “democracy” and “freedom of expression” in New Zealand, a blog contributor said: ” Democracy? Freedom of expression? If kiwis were blind, they’d [still] be called hawkeyes!
Put differently…
If the suicide toll in the country broke all previous records, [Fort] New Zealand would still be among the happiest countries in the world—ranking 9th, to be exact!
“The provisional suicide toll has risen to its highest figure since the coroner’s office started releasing the statistics,” according to a report.
For the year June 2014- May 2015, at least 569 people died by suicide or suspected suicide, says the stats, compared to 529 last year.
[Notes: The figures are only the reported, or doctored, numbers. The actual toll is probably much higher. Additionally, for every person committing suicide, about 3,500 others become chronic substance abusers.]
And as for the happiest country bit?
“The 2015 World Happiness Report, released by the Sustainable Development Solutions Network for the United Nations, puts New Zealand just ahead of its Australian neighbours.”
