A group calling itself the #UnitedPeopleOfCanada or TUPC, has only existed since March 24, yet somehow has $6M to purchase a heritage property in #Ottawa. Oh, & they call it the “embassy” & have ties to #FreeDumbConvoy - which they gaslight about cbc.ca/news/canada/ot… #cdnpoli
I’ll highlight this part again because it’s significant. TUPC has already retrained legal counsel, stating they plan to be litigious towards people calling them out.
Now why would an organization not quite 4 months old, feel the need to retain legal to “intervene”?🧐🤔 #cdnpoli
Interesting thread delving into the fascist symbolism of TUPC.
“The United People of Canada” is also registered as a “nonprofit”. I smell grift & a way to launder foreign money & funnel it to domestic political campaigns (ie Polievre, perhaps?) #cdnpoli
Thanks @HiggsAndRussell for this comparison! #TUPC #TUPOC #cdnpoli #fascism
I find this comment particularly noteworthy & deceptive as TUPOC attempts to explain how a less than 4 month old nonprofit came up with $6M.
What “good work in the community”, exactly? Some sparsely attended BBQs? If their “work” didn’t include #FreeDumbConvoy, then what is it?
This thread has some great info on why it’s an absolute lie that “The United People Of Canada” aren’t tied to #FreeDumbConvoy & the malign influence operations behind it. #Fascism #NeverVoteConservative #cdnpoli
NOTE. The 3 people listed as directors of “The United People of Canada” (will there be more? Will they register?) are all from London Ontario. The registered address is also London. So why are they setting up in a $6M church in Ottawa? ic.gc.ca/app/scr/cc/Cor… #OTTpoli #cdnpoli
Thanks to @hrefna_q & @ReinChange for this. #TUPOC’s registration as a nonprofit is using as their address St Peter’s Basilica in London Ontario. Even though their $6M building is in Ottawa. Curiouser & shadier by the minute. #Ottnews #OTTpoli #FreeDumbConvoy @csiscanada #cdnpoli
Turns out, TUPOC’s director has registered a whole bunch of businesses to the same 533 Clarence St address. #FreeDumbConvoy #ottnews #cdnpoli
Thanks @pqpolitics for alerting me to this. Take note of the vague empty words used by William Komer’s businesses. TUPOC is using (abusing) images of Black people to make their #fascist organization look “inclusive”. They do the same to sell their white nationalist merch. Vile.
