The fatal shooting of a newly formed Satan’s Choice member in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, had nothing to do with his role in the club, according to its national president. Jamey Anger, 56, was shot just after 10 p.m. on August 18, 2026, while sitting in his white Jeep in the 11400-block of 236 Street. He was taken to hospital in critical condition and died on August 31. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team described the attack as a targeted incident involving people who knew each other. IHIT has not publicly confirmed Anger’s membership in Satan’s Choice, but Postmedia established both the identity and the club affiliation through sources and online posts.

Harley Guindon, a former Hells Angel who revived Satan’s Choice last year, told Postmedia that speculation linking the murder to friction between his group and the Hells Angels is wrong. “I truly don’t think there’s any connection,” Guindon said in a Facebook message. “We truly aren’t at war with the Hells Angels in Canada. My point was proven in Ontario. I’ve always been very close with British Columbia. In my heart I still consider many of them as brothers. I’ve never disrespected B.C. We have a mutual bond and I don’t see them doing anything like this maliciously.”

The first British Columbia chapter of the revived club opened in Abbotsford roughly a year ago. Guindon has described the project as an attempt to rebuild the old Ontario-based name with a different emphasis. He has said members are expected to do charity work across the country and that he wants to move away from the fear-based image long associated with outlaw clubs. “Basically, what I’m trying to do is change the stigma from the way that people are perceiving the Hells Angels and bring back the Choice, but in a much more revamped positive manner with different brotherhood values,” he told Postmedia earlier. “I’m not trying to run with the whole fear tactic thing. I’m trying to deal with the respect part of it.”

Anger himself posted about the club’s activities. After Ontario members handed out groceries, he wrote that they were doing a “f–king awesome job.” He also promoted a Satan’s Choice Harley-Davidson motorcycle raffle in July and appeared in group photos from the club’s Canada Run in early August. Most of his other social media content focused on fitness, family, and recovery from addiction.

His criminal history is documented. Anger had convictions for assault, mischief, breach of probation, possession of controlled substances, using a forged document, and resisting or obstructing a peace officer. In 2021 he was named in a civil forfeiture lawsuit after an RCMP drug-trafficking investigation in Maple Ridge. The suit resulted in the forfeiture of his 2013 Dodge Ram. Searches after his arrest turned up steroids, fentanyl, crack cocaine, methamphetamine, a loaded 9-mm Luger, $15,000 cash, scales, phones, and records of drug transactions. No criminal charges resulted from that investigation.

A separate incident involving Satan’s Choice occurred earlier this month in Woodstock, Ontario. Video showed roughly two dozen men in Outlaws vests surrounding a business and attacking two Satan’s Choice members, taking their vests. Guindon told the London Free Press the clash was a “personal beef” and that the vests were later returned. Ontario’s biker enforcement unit has taken notice of the video.

IHIT Sgt. Freda Fong said at the time of the Maple Ridge shooting that investigators were working with the victim’s family and friends to reconstruct his activities and relationships. When contacted this week for an update, she declined to comment. The investigation remains open. No arrests have been publicly announced.

The Maple Ridge case sits against the backdrop of a club that has only been back in operation for a short time. Guindon has repeatedly stated that the revived Satan’s Choice is not at war with the Hells Angels in Canada and that the Maple Ridge shooting does not change that assessment. Whether investigators ultimately treat the killing as a personal dispute, a drug-related matter, or something else will determine how the case is resolved. For now, the public record shows a targeted shooting of a man who had joined the new chapter, a criminal history tied to drugs, and a club leader insisting the death is not part of any larger club conflict.
