Well it seems that the tweet thread I posted earlier in the day wasn't going to be the final word in right-wing infighting.

I'm sure y'all are shocked by this revelation. 1/10

Joshua Switzer-Crowe who goes by The Angry Albertan has been holding his own anti-lockdown rallies at the leg. Today he posted a video cancelling their scheduled rally tomorrow and urging people not to attend the Tiki torch rally on Saturday. 2/10

I include a few clips, the first one noting the problem with deciding to tie your march with associated imagery to a racist rally in which a woman was murdered. 3/10

In this part he calls out Kevin Johnston. 4/10

And we have some equally justified criticism of Pat King. 5/10

Finally he urges people not to attend. 6/10

The reaction was predictable as Pat King (sniff sniff) lashed out... 7/10

...followed by Kevin Johnston who, though he claims he wants to be major (1) still spends the lion's share of his time in Ontario and (2) doesn't know how to spell the name of the people he wishes to govern. 8/10

Switzer-Crowe expands upon his concerns about the people involved in these events suggesting (again, correctly) that involvement of sovereign citizen cranks isn't a good look. 9/10

There also continues to be confusion about the time of the event, the location (at least where people meet up), and who will be speaking.

In short, not entirely unexpected. 10/10

Also in related news, Steven Lane appears to be planning for violence and/or is in desperate need of a 12 step programme.

Is it ironic that in making fun of Johnston's spelling I myself spelled "mayor" incorrectly?

Yes. Yes it is.
