Canada White Supremacy

TheStruggler

Report me for trolling ND/TLoU2 threads
With everything that is going on in the United States, the white supremicist rallies have given Canadian White Supremicists a platform to expand on, this issue is expanding and getting awareness just acorss the 49th parallel. Sad.

We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children,” and “88,” which stands for “Heil Hitler”

Jesse Wielenga, vice-president of the Worldwide Coalition Against Islam Canada, said Friday that he is not bothered by people who might be offended by neo-Nazi slogans and “jokes” about racist violence posted to his social media.

The aftermath of a deadly white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va., continues to be felt in the United States and here in Canada. Since the tragedy took place, events for several white nationalist rallies have popped up across the country.

There are several of these rallies planned for Toronto and one in Calgary too,” Barbara Perry, a University of Ontario Institute of Technology professor who studies hate crimes.

There's supposedly one happening in Vancouver today, but according to the FB event page -- at least, before it went offline for some reason -- only about 15 people were going to attend.


Meanwhile, attendance for the counter-protest is at 6,000+.

Was planning on attending the counter protest. Excited for the "oh fuck" look on the faces of the alt-right attendees.

Sorry we exported our garbage to you, Canada.

I'm sure that white supremacist groups exist in every country with substantial white populations. Canada isn't an exception. The difference is in the way that governments handle that sort of thing. Canada has laws that limit hate speech. the US does not (to say nothing of the current US president actually encouraging this sort of thing).

The existence of white supremacists isn't the export. Our culture, which is our greatest export, influence and embolden the trash elsewhere to step up.

They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man.
They must be sad now that their favourite media organization is imploding.
 
The funny part about this shit in Canada is that our Birth Rate is getting low, to the point that we could reach a period where there are more deaths than births in the country.

So if it wasn't for immigrants our population growth would suffer a lot.
Trying to push isolationism or anti-immigration is pretty unsustainable.
 
they'll never go through with it. they're just gonna talk tough online and chicken out last minute. they know they're in the wrong,

Not necessarily.
In Austria, since these tiny groups get good police protection, you'll sometimes have like 20-30 people protesting for something, with thousands counter-protesting just a street away. They know they are safe, and if they get hurt by a huge group, it'll only cause support for them.
They're slimy like that.
 
Nah, Canada has plenty of racists as well. Rebel Media is a Canadian thing.

Luckily the Charlottesville tragedy has imploded Rebel Media at least somewhat.

Disgusting website. Conservatives are scattering away from it lol, after kissing their ass for so long.

6 people were killed and 19 injured when that alt-right dipshit I won't name shot up a mosque in Quebec. We are acutely aware of our white nationalist a-holes, don't worry.

Their ad revenue sank like a stone well before the events in Charlottesville, and their poster girl Lauren Southern abandoned them, so I imagine they are not long for this world.

The major difference is that the VAST majority of the country and our leadership denounced it.

This happens now and then but it ends up being 10 or 15 trashy people gathering. I would not be concerned about it, only getting atttention because of what happened in th US.

Very happy after seeing what happened to Rebel Media.

Also, are any of these events planned for Ottawa?

They have to protect those historically significant Canadian confederate monuments.

We actually had a confederate monument that got taken down this week. Think it was in Montreal or QC

They have to protect those historically significant Canadian confederate monuments.

So there's a few monuments causing some controversy. I live in Halifax, which was founded by a British guy named Cornwallis. Of course there's a couple streets named after the guy, a couple schools, and at least one prominent statue.

Now, as this is the 1740's, there are tensions with the native Mi'kmaw peoples, eventually leading to war. Cornwallis issued scalping bounties - first for Mi'kmaw warriors, then later a bounty on women and children.

Many in the province, including obviously the remaining Mi'kmaw population, think we probably shouldn't have statues erected to a guy who once put a bounty on children. I am inclined to agree.

I don't want to imply that everyone who disagrees is a white nationailst racist - I have heard some rational (ultimately unconvincing) arguments against removing the statue (orders came from British army superiors, product of his times, etc), and discussions I have had with people have generally been civil.

However, there is a very vocal (aren't they always) small group of racist shits who seem WAY too invested in the fate of a fucking statue. They claim if the statue is torn down they should go to the nearby reservation territory and tear down their prominent statue, and so on,

We even had a group of off duty military personnel harassing peaceful protesters at the statue.

Called themselves "Proud Boys". Smug alt-right fucks:

Good.

Had to deal with a jackass that was harassing a black woman yesterday (in North Vancouver, of all places), and it got really ugly. Stupid prick wouldn't stop, and I had to call out on both is bigotry and sexism.

They've also taken to using the Red Ensign, a relic of our colonial past, in the same way American white supremacists use the confederate flag.

Yeah this happens periodically. It's more frequent recently for obvious reasons but it's not new. We just have a lot more ppl against it, including leadership and most law enforcement + laws against such things. They can't do much legally and aren't as big or as organized as in the USA. Any rally in a major city like Montreal Vancouver or Toronto woukd be met with TONS of resistance and/or shut down pretty quickly.

They're more vocal now in Montreal due to all the Haitians coming in illegally at the NY/QC border, and all the issues surrounding that.

Thankfully those shit heads are rarer in Canada, at least they seem to be less noticeable.

I'd be glad to counter protest if there's one in Quebec though.

In all seriousness, this is something people need to take more seriously, especially in light of the recent actions of Rebel contributor Faith Goldy during the Nazi riot in Charlottesville. Hell, the fact that the Rebel contributed to radicalizing Canadians is horrific enough on its own, doubly so when you realize how many Conservative Party of Canada MPs, including leader Andrew Scheer, had no problem being on the same propaganda wing as the one that made a video titles "Ten Things I Hate About Jews" and made up a conspiracy about the Quebec mosque shooter being a Muslim.

It's not so much that they're more uncommon so much as they don't get the attention that they should. Far-right/alt-right/fascist groups in Canada like Proud Boys should be getting far more attention than they're currently receiving.
 
Rebel Media's co-founder left the company the other day because even he thought they were getting too toxic.

Yeah they were ok with everything until the Nazi flags came out and someone got killed.

US is exporting Trump's bullshit and some of it came over here and enabled these assholes but as a whole white nationalism has a way bigger hill to climb in Canada than in the US.
 
This happened in Alberta earlier this year, buncha these groups showed up at a school to harass children

http://edmontonjournal.com/opinion/...-anti-syrian-protest-in-red-deer-based-on-lie

They included members of the Worldwide Coalition Against Islam, Canada. Their Facebook page features a banner showing an armoured, sword-wielding avenging Aryan angel standing on guard for Canada and a caricature showing a Muslim man with a long black beard, demonic pointed ears and the nose of a pig being kicked in the rear with the caption, ”Get Out Of Our Country." The message is not subtle.

Also on hand was the leader of a Calgary-based federal fringe party, the National Advancement Party, which, among other things, wants to ban the production of halal and kosher meat in Canada.

RCMP say there were also at least five uniformed members of the Soldiers of Odin, a Canadian offshoot of a Finnish neo-Nazi vigilante group.

This was, in fact, a travelling hate circus inspired by fake news and viral lies. And when the cameras stopped rolling, the hate clowns jumped in their cars and left town. This week Red Deer. Next week, wherever malice and political opportunism take them.

”The majority of these protesters were not Red Deerians," says Red Deer Mayor Tara Veer. ”I'm hard-pressed to see how this reflects our city when they're not from here. This does not represent the Red Deer we know."

And yes, one had a MAGA hat on

Thanks for doing that. I've witnessed several pretty heinous displays of racism in my neighborhood (Coal Harbour) this summer. Just yesterday this white woman was "invited to leave" Urban Fare on Bute for relentlessly harassing an African-American tourist and her daughter at the checkout line. These racists are usually shut down pretty quickly, but still, we can't forget they are out there, and in probably greater numbers than we'd like to admit.

Link does not work on my tablet, but yeah, seems like that's the case when I check on Google.

Any place where I could see their schedule or if there's going to be a counter protest?

I don't really follow it, but it's absolutely certain there will be.

La Meute, though, from what I read about them, is not a white supremacy group. They are anti-Islam, it seems the only point to their existence.

From the Vancouver rally right now

(more updates here)



^So far, that's the only obvious Nazi there, while the other actual ralliers haven't made themselves known/visible yet. Everyone else is a counter-protestor.


EDIT:
Now there's a guy with a Pepe sign and somebody condemning a Qu'ran.

Funny, as the guy with the Pepe sign likely wouldn't be welcome among those who espouse alt-right beliefs, since he's clearly not white. I think this could be the first 100% verifiable instance of someone posing as a fascist "for the lulz", because no one could be THAT oblivious.

He looks vaguely familiar to me as well. Might be a face from high school.

Regardless, seems like a guy just doing stupid for the sake of stupid.

EDIT: By the way, apparently the VPD have free will to eject anyone that they deem to be blurting out hate speech. They've already escorted some people out of the general area.

It's unfortunate that Trump seems to have emboldened this assholes, but I'm happy to see that there are more protesting against it.

Canada is a lovely country and I am proud of being part of it.

However, I would strongly believe against the idea that it's so perfect that such things don't exist - far from it. Being not white myself, I have experienced racial bias many times.

Not strictly on the subject btw, I was just randomly called the "fa" word on the street yesterday by a driver running the red light at the intersection. And I was almost hit by this person. Being straight myself, I feel very bad for the LGBT community in Toronto.

I'm at the counter-protest (and heading to the Whitecaps game later). I couldn't be prouder of my city. Fuck white supremacists.

Well, it seems that so far, the people who officially organized the rally in the first place seem to be no-shows.
