Far Right Rallies and Counter-Rallies: Montreal and Toronto

I'll be updating this as more information comes out.

Two rallies are ongoing. In Montreal members of La Meute (unofficially, of course) and other hate groups are rallying in support of the illiberal policies of the current Quebec government targeting religious minorities. In Toronto Pegida Canada is trying to march.

In Montreal Jon Milton is one of the journalists covering the event. He reports police in that city as having aggressively attacked counter-protesters as members of the far-right cheered them on:














In Toronto I've been following some of the live videos posted by far right members on social media. Some in the crowd (and those posting in the comments section) are encouraging the far-right protesters to attack the counter-protesters. Given the police presence separating the two sides, that might be a tall order. Groups present include members of hate groups including Canadian Combat Coalition, Northern Guard, Nouns of Odin, and members of Travis Patron's Nationalist Party of Canada:

Also present are Rick Boswisk and Derek Storie fresh of their interviews
with Paul Fromm and Max Bernier; more on this in a later article.
Suffice it to say they aren't having the best of times right now:


After about an hour the Pegida and co. supporters tried to march.

They didn't get too far.


Justin Long's videos suggest the fascist supporters are having a lousy day again:


Yep, a very lousy day....


.... which includes at least one Yellow Jacket arrest:


Journalist Kosalan Kathir covered the event from the start:














Readers won't be surprised that unemployed drifters Boswick and Storie are among the remaining petulant children who are engaging in the equivalent of holding their breath until they get their way. Video edited for length because holy HELL are they whiny!

Faith Goldy, Kevin Goudreau, and Hate Groups Including Soldiers of Odin Banned From Facebook

I've worked at the same job for close to 20 years and I really do love it. However there are drawbacks.

On the one hand, my employment allows me to pay my mortgage. To buy a new car when the old one's motor explodes in the middle of rural Manitoba. To go on trips to places like Nepal, Tunisia, and Portugal.

On the other hand, it prevents me from jumping on the blog right away to bring ARC's readers good news like this:




White nationalists Faith Goldy and Kevin Goudreau have been banned from both Facebook and Instagram, though I'm not sure if "No Show" was on Instagram. Hate groups that have been banned include several of the Nouns of Odin and at least one group tied to the Clann.

Suffice it to say the crying and gnashing of teeth has been amusing:







Got to say though that retweeting complaints about "Zionists" doesn't help your claim of not being a white nationalist with a penchant for dabbling in anti-semitic tropes:


The news was also discussed today in Parliament:






Now what should be humiliating for Goldy is that she is spoken of in the same breath of Kevin "No Show" Goudreau who also had a brief comment posted to Twitter:


Not sure I would consider Paulie to be especially wise considering the leaky sieve of intel he's been for ARC for over a decade, but hey, you do you Kevin.

In addition to these two, a few groups have been banned including the Nouns of Odin (Soldiers, Wolves, etc) and at least one group linked to Ryan Dean's Clann.

Now this is a good first step, but it is a first step. There are other hate groups that are still active that I would ask to help take down. These include:
  • The Worldwide Coalition Against Islam and all their provincial chapters.
  • Northern Guard and provincial chapters.
  • La Meute 
  • Atalante
  • Yellow Vest Canada and provincial/city chapters in Canada
  • Travis Parton's Canadian Nationalist Party
  • Individuals including Lauren Southern and Paul Fromm
Also....

I will also leave these here without comment:







In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy a beer.

Canadian Connection To Man Who Murdered Heather Heyer

Not long ago, members of the far-right in the United States were inexplicably confident that the man who struck and killed Heather Heyer and injured several others in Charlottesville would be acquitted despite.... you know.... the actual evidence.

On December 7, he was instead found guilty of first degree murder and nine other charges.

Suffice it to say the racists who cheered him on are upset.

Of further interest is information that a man featured on this blog was also connected to the murderer:



Shawn Beauvais-Macdonald had been a member of La Meute (one of the groups that helped to organize yesterday's protest on Parliament Hill in Ottawa) and participated in at least one more additional Le Meute event after "leaving" the group. He is now associated with the much more overtly racist Atalante, a neo-Nazi gang based in Quebec and ID Canada (formerly Generation Identity Canada). Beauvais-Macdonald's, posting as "FriendlyFash", was one of the participants in the now leaked Discord chat, the transcript of which can be found here. And of course he also participated in the Charlottesville event of 2017:





 More information on Beauvais-Macdonald, including his connection to other prominent far-right/alt-right/racist personalities can be found in the links below:

Guest Article: New Developments in Quebec Racism, Fascism and Nationalist Fuckery

Quebec correspondent here. It’s been a while. Are you ready for a roundup of what’s been happening here in 2018? Here we go:

When we last spoke, Dave Treg (formerly of Soldiers of Odin Québec and Storm Alliance) had quit activism (now he calls himself JUG for ‘Juste un Gars’ (Just a Guy) and hangs out with ex-Meute members), Atalante had started a Montréal cha

The end of winter and most of spring were pretty calm, (except online, because the far-right never stops posting awful stuff online.) Part of that may have been due to the weather and the fact that less asylum seekers were crossing irregularly into Canada when it was cold and snowy.

But they were quick to get back on their bullshit. Some Meute and SOO members went to a conference about the far-right at a college in the suburbs of Montréal and harrassed the participants and students and provoked some confrontations (to, of course paint themselves as the good guys who are being attacked by the ‘’regressive left.’’) Alatante and SOO also tried to organize some ‘’charitable’’ actions in an attempt to make themselves look better.

And then in May, we learned that one of the biggest figures of the online fachosphere was from Montréal (he has since moved out) and a lot of chatlogs of the fascist alt-right were made public thanks to the great job of anti-fascist activists and some journalists. Atalante went to the Montréal offices of Vice and intimidated the journalists that had written about them (one of them has since been arrested for this.)

But of course they never stop working for The Cause, and on May 19, Storm Alliance organized another protest at Lacolle, at the border between the US and Canada to protest irregular immigration which they believe is all a ploy to ethnic cleanse the whites. But this time they had a star with them. Indeed, famous crypto-fash Faith Goldy was there to do some ‘’journalism’’ or whatever she does. She walked to the counter-protesters gathered there and started filming them, asking them which side they were on, pretending to be naive about all of this. She was met with anger and was asked to leave, and her phone was pushed off her hands. She, of course, used that footage to spin the situation in her favor, saying she had been attacked by antifa and that they were everywhere, always looking to get her. Which is hypocritical to say the least, since a counter-protester was literally attacked by the III% militia at the same demo, where she was pushed to the ground, had her wallet stolen and her identity published online. In Québec, Goldy had never been a big deal but some of the younger far-right members knew her and helped spread her message. DMS, a mostly online duo of far-right trolls (Guillaume Beauchamp and Maxime Morin) used her footage to make a video doxxing some of the protesters who confronted her at the border and encouraging people to harass these activists. DMS are mostly known for a video they made in 2017 where they claim that the left and the anti-fascists in Montréal are all paid protesters who are using students’ money to pay for their actions (all of this because well-known activist Jaggi Singh used to work for a progressive research center at Concordia University which is partly funded by a small fee taken from tuitions.) Some of the older nationalists at the anti-immigration protest took a liking to Goldy too, making videos and social media posts about the poor beautiful journalist who was savagely attacked by the Soros gang.

So when she organized her own demonstration at the border, many of those Québecois decided to help her mobilize. The newly formed group Québec Libre en Action (Free Québec in Action) with at its head Jonathan ‘’John Hex’’ (formerly of SA) and Pierre Dion (a seemingly new face in the movement) were part of the organizers. They were again met by a solid anti-fascist, anti-fascist and pro-immigration resistance at the border.

They also went to protest the G7 and globalization (but of course not with the other protests, those are bad antifa protests) and ended up being less than a dozen inside the self-expression pen that the G7 had put up, ranting about conspiracies.

Québec Libre en Action then decided to join a demonstration organized by the Front Patriotique du Québec, a separatist group who always organize very small marches in Montréal on July 1 to protest Canada Day, and they brought with them the III% militia and a lot of anti-immigrant people. Which is funny since La Meute and Storm Alliance also had planned a demo on July 1, also in Montréal. There was a lot of internal disagreements between the groups because La Meute and SA are not specifically separatists and the FPQ and QLeA are. So while they could have joined forces, they didn’t, and La Meute and SA were preventing from marching by a group of around 200 protestors while the other march happened with little coverage from the media. It’s okay though, because Pierre Dion filmed the whole thing on Facebook live and we can see the group yelling at passersby and asking them if they love their Québec and if they are immigrants. Classy stuff.

These days, Dion is organizing a legal action against the government because he was told that if one Native person deposits an injunction against irregular immigration, it would immediately stop (!!). He finally ‘’found his indigenous guy’’ so we’ll see how well that goes.

La Meute Caught Lying About "Antifa" Assault Claim

Those of us who followed the failed La Meute march this past Sunday expected that they would attempt to spin it as some sort of success despite what was obvious to all involved:


What wasn't expected was how they would spin it in an attempt to favor themselves and cast aspersions on those who opposed them:



Sébastien Chabot is referring to an incident he is claiming occurred when a group of who he characterized as First Nations supporters of the Front Patriotique du Québec tried to join their rally but were prevented from doing so. When I asked a friend from Quebec to confirm to me what La Mute spokesperson Chabot was claiming, I received the following reply:
Sébastien Chabot claimed that people were attack by antifa on Facebook and gave it a weird twist that 3 native people were beaten by antifa lead by Eve Torres, a candidate for QS who is wearing an hijab (probably only because she wears an hijab). The post was made by someone else but he relayed it and said 3 native people had been beaten by antifa lead by Torres.
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised by this claim as it echoes those made after every far-right rally where they claim to be the victims of "antifa" violence; more often than not, the far-right members have been documented engaging in the most egregious violence while suited up in paramilitary gear, though they inevitably claim self-defence. Bryan Trottier, the Ontario head of the CDN Wolfpack (essentially an English language chapter of La Meute) also claimed that during the La Meute rally "antifa" had attacked their membership. When I asked a friendly reporter on the scene, he told me the groups were separated at such a distance as to make this claim laughable.

So Chabot claim was taken with an immediate grain of salt:


The photos seemed false to me and others as well but before I even had a chance to check on their authenticity others were already on the case.

You will not at all be surprised by what they found:

La Meute Protest in Montreal

I'll update as information becomes available.




















Evidence of this can be found on a post by the leader of La Meute on their public Facebook page:






The anti-fascists appear to be having some fun:




As of 4:30 pm (Eastern Time), La Meute and their allies appear to be slinking away.




Finally....



And with that I'm going out to enjoy some bbq and a good book.

Ronny Cameron At June 3 Border Protest. Spoiler Alert, But He's Pretty Much Gone Full Nazi

I spent part of Sunday watching Ronny Cameron's live feed of the protest by a collection of racists and xenophobes in Quebec near the Lacolle border crossing that was organized by Faith Goldy:


Long story short, with references to the "14 words," "1488," the "JQ," and referring to First Nations' peoples as savages and "wagon burners," I think it is fair to state that Ronny Cameron isn't even bothering to hide his white supremacist views and neither are all the other people he spoke to during the protest:



Others following the performance have made similar obsevations:

May 2018 Bits and Bites: Goudreau, Proud Boys, WCAI, Myatt, Cameron, and Faith Goldy

May is not yet over but it has been busy. As such I decided to combine some of the smaller stories I had been collecting and compile them into one large article. It is long but, believe it or not, I haven't included everything.

Before I start, this afternoon members of Atalante attempted to intimidate "Vice Canada" journalists in their Montreal offices (see here for the English language and the French language accounts of the incident). Ultimately their efforts were pretty weak, but it does indicate that groups such as Atalante and others are becoming more brazen as little is seemingly done to keep such hate groups in check:


They aren't being particularly subtle, are they?

Now, getting into the "lighter side" of the news so-to-speak, it looks like Kevin "No Show" Goudreau still thinks that he is the leader of all Canadian hate groups and is trying to give orders to the Soldiers of Odin:


I'm very interested in seeing how that will go over.

We also learned about how dishonest some of the people we cover here are, including middle-age Proud Boy Robert Jones:


This image was debunked long ago however it continues to make the rounds. It doesn't surprise me that Jones would be fooled, but when other tell him the origin photo Jones' response is telling:


Yep. He now knows it is a lie but since it defames the reputation of people he disagrees with, he's going to use it still.

And that is, in a nutshell, all one really needs to know about the integrity of Robert Jones.


I haven't written much about the WCAI lately, though they appear to be planning some rallies this summer. However ARC has certainly been on Joey Deluca's and Jesse Wielenga's collective minds:


Jesus. That edit by former Ontario Canadian Combat Coalition vp Rick Boswick was more painful then even the stuff I've cobbled together, and I KNOW I'm bad at editing videos.

No, I'm not Dena Gallant and quite frankly I'm rather insulted as I believe myself to be far more witty than her. Then again I also know that me telling them this won't change their minds. Hell, others are also now certain that I'm Dr. Barbara Perry and I'm quite certain she has better ways to spend her time than on this blog (that said, I've had the opportunity to chat with Dr. Perry and she is very nice).

It is interesting that Joey et al believes the person who runs the ARC YouTube account is Ms. Gallant though since she has given Steven Myatt some grief regarding his efforts to sue Justin Trudeau for treason (yes, this is a real thing). It also turns out that Myatt can't stand criticism and is a bit of a drama queen:


Why are the alpha males all so bloody thin skinned?

So Myatt asks his very loyal followers if he should keep going or quit. Considering his audience he must have known what the outcome would be which means that this question is simply a request for his followers to stroke his ego:

Hate Has Consequences: More Fallout From Gabriel Sohier Chaput and Discord "Montreal Storm" Leaks

The news that "Zieger", a prominent neo-Nazi active on the "Daily Stormer" and second to hate site founder Andrew Anglin, was a Montreal IT consultant named Gabriel Sohier Chaput has been a huge story and one that continues to reverberate. Likely at least in part as a result of this outing, Canada's largest neo-Nazi podcast was shut down and all the content removed from YouTube:


The pressure on Sohier Chaput and those associated with him has been further increased by the efforts of the folks at Monteral Counter-Information who are are asking for help to identify others in "Zieger's" circle:
A Canada-Wide Callout to Track Down the Alt-Right Nazi Scumbags Next Door 
Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info 
The Montreal Storm leaks constitute the largest single reveal of activities of the neo-Nazi wing of the alt-right in Canada. What’s more, it looks like Montreal’s (pathetically small and inept) Daily Stormer “book club” may be the largest in Canada. That said, we know that it’s not the only one. 
Prior to the Daily Stormer closing its book club forum down, it was clear that there were attempts to start similar neo-Nazi cells across Canada, from Atlantic Canada to British Columbia. Neo-nazis from across Canada attended the “Leafensraum” meet-up organizer by Gabriel Sohier-Chaput and others in 2017. Quebeckers were not the only Canadians to attend the Unite the Right hatefest in Charlottesville in August 2017. Fliers, posters, and stickers with identical design and wording have appeared in different cities and provinces. 
If you have knowledge of neo-Nazi activities in your area, specifically connected to the Daily Stormer and alt-right, please get in touch with us at doxxlesnazis@riseup.net.
ARC has identified at least on member of the "Montreal Storm" Discord group. The user "FriendlyFash" is Shawn Beauvais-MacDonald:


Someone at Monteral Counter-Information also connected Beauvais-MacDonald as well explaining how they were able to identify "Zieger" as Gabriel Sohier Chaput  in this detailed article which begins as such:
Over the past year, Montreal antifascists have identified individuals, and finally a small and pathetic scene, of men in their 20s and 30s, active online but trying to establish an “in real life” presence for neo-Nazism in our city. Occasionally operating as “Alt-Right Montreal” or ARM, or Arm and Hammer, these individuals are also linked to Generation Identity (rebranded as ID Canada), the phantom Northern Order, and other “groups” in the city. 
This is the first of a series of reports on this milieu. It includes screenshots from the neo-nazis’ private chatroom, including many that we ourselves find traumatic.
Others have also been identified.

So if you can help identify more, feel free to give these folks a helping hand.

UPDATE 1: Looks like Shawn isn't happy being famous.


UPDATE 2: Looks like he'll have a lot of work to take down all the posters that have been put up.




These ones were found everywhere in Monkland:



Then there's this:


And isn't this interesting?
