Inadequately sourced WP:BLP1E of a person notable only for being a police informant. This is not an "inherently" notable thing under our inclusion criteria, so getting him into Wikipedia would be a matter of showing that he clears WP:GNG on the sources -- but there are just two footnotes here, one of which briefly mentions his name as background to somebody else doing a similar thing, but is not about him for the purposes of helping to establish his notability. And while the other one is more clearly about him, one news article isn't enough all by itself. It would be fine for his name to be mentioned in the main article on the Ipperwash Crisis, but his role in it was not significant enough to earn him a standalone biographical article as a separate topic.
