Prince Christopher: The main land base for Vikesland is in
Manitoba, Canada near the Riding Mountian national park on the

only three years old, the Principality of Vikesland is a relative
newcomer to the world of micronations. However, despite its age,
Vikesland seeks to become a major power in the intermicronational
community. The summit was successful in solidifying the two countries'
already strong friendship.
The Principality of Vikesland is a micronation located in Manitoba,
Canada. It was founded in 2005 by Christopher Barry Joseph Beyette
(Prince Christopher I), a television news cameraman employed by the
CHUM network.
The Vikesland website states that the micronation is "not
secessionist" and has no intention of claiming the territory of Canada
or any other sovereign state.
However, the site also identifies Beyette's place of residence in the
town of Brandon, as well as a nearby 6

At that time, Vikesland warned that the findings were preliminary and
the added triclosan in household products may not act as in the same
way as its pure counterpart does to cause formation of toxic
chloroform. But his new study of real products with real triclosan

saying by the EST news.
The researchers say it remains unknown how the chloroform formed by
triclosan would impact each individual who uses triclosan containing
products. More research is needed to assess the potential risk

“Basically,” Vikesland said, “what we’ve found is that the chlorine
present in many tap waters can react with the compound triclosan,
present in microbial soaps. Under some conditions, the reactions can
cause the production of chloroform and other chlorinated organic
materials.”

Peter Vikesland has shown in his research that when the chemical
triclosan, present in many antimicrobial soaps, reacts with chlorine
in tap water, chloroform is produced. Chloroform is classified by the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a probable human carcinogen.
