A regular fixture and small-time organizer for protests held by the racist-right in Ontario, Ron Banerjee has come to the fore as the figurehead of racist Hindu nationalism in Canada.

A staple of Ontario's hate movements for years, Banerjee's current goal seems to be to label Sikhs, especially those living in the diaspora, as Khalistani, a term used to denounce Sikhs as being separatists and engaging in acts of terror.

Recently, he posed for photos with attendees at pro-Modi government protests. At another event, Banerjee recorded himself berating a passing group of Sikhs on motorcycles.

His statements have become so vitriolic in the past that Banerjee was forced as part of a settlement to record an apology to Paramount Fine Foods owner Mohamad Fakih after claiming you must be a "Jihadist" to go into his business & "raped your wife."

Banerjee protests with a variety of figures in Canada’s right-wing extremist movement, including neo-Nazi Paul Fromm & others like Tomas Liko & Kevin Johnston. Referring to them as patriots, the 2 sides are aligned on their anti-Muslim, anti-refugee, anti-immigration stances.
