The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in New Brunswick have announced that a second youth has been placed under a terrorism peace bond for alleged involvement with the extremist online group known as the 764 Network. This case marks a continuation of rising concerns over youth radicalization and the influence of extremist networks in Canada. The police state that this individual was engaged in threatening behaviors, including extorting victims to self-harm and making threats to schools both in New Brunswick and the United States, as well as producing online content to draw attention to the 764 Network.

The RCMP emphasized that there is no connection between this case and a previously reported incident involving another youth under a similar peace bond, which was noted to be a first for New Brunswick. Both cases reflect a disturbing trend of young individuals becoming embroiled in extremist activities online, leading authorities to express serious concern regarding the potential risks posed by such groups to both local communities and broader public safety.

Investigations began in late 2025, highlighting ongoing efforts by law enforcement to tackle extremism and protect vulnerable youth from being drawn into violent ideologies. Under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, the identities of the minors involved remain confidential, but this situation raises significant considerations about online safety, the responsibilities of platforms in moderating extremist content, and the involvement of youth in dangerous activities.
