PREVIEW: Tomorrow we're exposing the fledgling white supremacist "Canada First" movement and the young men who use the chatroom to "build an army of nameless, faceless members” to infiltrate government and gain political power. 1/
CW: In the Canada First Discord server, slurs are used without a second thought. When the bodies of 215 Indigenous children were found in a mass grave in Kamloops, chat members dismissed the findings as simply a “few dead chug kids.” 2/
They brag about their OPSEC and vetting, but it's not that good. Tomorrow, we're naming names. 3/
We spent months inside the new white supremacist group. Now it's time to expose them for what they are.
1/ EXPOSED: We spent months inside a fledgling white supremacist mvmt that’s recruiting kids to infiltrate politics & build an ethnostate. Canada First is trying to copy the USA Groyper / America First mvmt. Now it’s time to name them for what they are. antihate.ca/canada_first_e…
2/ Despite Tyler L. Russell’s amateur & often lazy (he plays a lot of NHL '21) attempts to build a white supremacist mvmt, his aim (one shared by the chatroom) is a Canada where “there aren’t any fa**ots, low crime, no minorities.” That would require deportations & genocide.
3/ Members of the chat fantasize about executing their critics, calling them “future wall facers.” Russell says they’ll do “WHATEVER it takes to win.” Children as young at 14 are in the server.
1/ The "End the Lockdown Caucus" was created by the Christian nationalist group Liberty Coalition Canada, whose founder calls multiculturalism a “suicidal experiment...leaving us with citizens who engage in terror.”
2/ Christian nationalism is the belief that Canada was founded on Christian values, which are superior, and that our laws and government should operate on their basis. Most Christians are not Christian nationalists. It is *political.*
3/ LCC’s Rev. Boot is the author of The Niagara Declaration which espouses Christian nationalist ideals.
It focuses on the "Christian Dominion" & the "Supremacy of God" over Canada" & asserts "it is only in Christianized nations that religious freedom has ever flourished."
1/ A previously obscure Canadian conspiracy theorist has been inundated with attention after what thousands of new followers are calling “confirmation” of the declaration that she is both the Prime Minister and Queen of Canada. antihate.ca/_lead_in_the_h…
2/ Didulo's posts are steeped in QAnon ideology, and most contain the standard hashtags, slogans, and conspiracy theories.
Many are aggressive, claiming an inevitable death or incarceration for any who dare defy her imaginary authority.
3/ Also check out @MackLamoureux's in depth look at Didulo here:
There are hate-promoting grifters within it that are looking for clout, publicity, and see a chance to bring susceptible, gullible people into their warped and bigoted worldviews.
We’ll be tweeting what we see today at #GraceLife church in Spruce Grove, AB. A number of known hatemongers are expected to show up today to protest the closure of pastor James Coates’ church.
An Alberta pastor’s battle with health authorities to ignore COVID-19 guidelines is drawing some troubling figures to a protest this weekend. antihate.ca/church_protest…

We'll be watching on the day to keep you updated on who is on the scene, but here are a few of the figures who have indicated they might be stopping by:

Steven Lane is a founder of the Urban Infidels, a faux-biker hate group he started after leaving the Soldiers of Odin. A regular attendee of Alberta’s protests, he has repeatedly made racist and violent statements online ahead of time. UI is staunchly anti-Muslim. 3/
