Xander Phoenix, 52, has been charged with one count of causing a person to use forged document, and one count of forgery, according to an RCMP media release issued today, Feb. 27.

Phoenix is originally from New Westminster and Kelowna RCMP have asked him to contact police to rectify these warrants.
