La Meute in Oka Went Exactly As One Might Expect

This past Saturday, members of La Meute traveled to Kanesatake (Oka), PQ to hold a rally.... or something. Ostensibly claiming to be trying to forge some sort of ties with First Nations' people there, given they showed up uninvited strike me more as an effort to intimidate.

If that is the case, it did not go as planned (Video by Tonya Fawn):


At least one member of La Meute, Bryan Trottier, appears to be rather aggrieved:

Way to build bridges there Bryan.

But really, what did the idiots in La Meute think would happen? Did they actually think that Mohawk warriors who stood up to the Canadian military would be intimidated by a bunch of weekend cosplayers who routinely shit themselves at the first sign of even perceived danger?

Did they think that the people who have this as a legacy would be frightened by La Meute?!?!


Do they think they are going to cow people like Waneek Horn-Miller who was stabbed with a bayonet....


.... and then become a decorated athlete and an Olympian?


That would be a hard no.

If La Meute has any sense, they will not replicate this particular stunt again.

PEGIDA Canada Members in Nathan Phillips Square Exploiting 9/11 Tragedy

I didn't post much about it since I didn't want to give them any oxygen, but right now PEGIDA Canada is holding a rally in Toronto's Nathan Phillips Square, ostensibly to memorialize the 2001 9/11 tragedy.... on 9/8 I guess.

In reality, it is a cynical ploy to exploit the tragedy to serve their own purposes. The Canadian Combat Coalition also claimed they would be attending and explicitly stated that they would claim that any counter-protesters who showed up would be disrespecting the dead (as if using the victims to promote Islamophobia is more noble).

PEGIDA really is spent force, if one could ever even consider it to have been much of a force in the first place, in the Canadian far-right. The can only ever manage a handful of individuals and are routinely outnumbered by counter-protesters by as much as 6 to 1. This rally seems initially seemed to be no different.

And fyi, the Tweets are coming from Kosalan Kathir who is reporting from the scene. If you're on the platform please follow him:









UPDATE 1: Well looks like things have gotten a bit more interesting.

Looks like at least one Soldier of Odin and some Northern Guard, Proud Boy, La Meute (UPDATE 3: turns out Kosalan mistook the CCC insignia for the La Meute one), and CCC members in the mix:




Eric Brazau was taken away by the police:

Also sounds like there may be III% militia members, though that isn't certain:





Well THIS is a first:

And now confirmation of the presence of the III% militia:









Currently taking screen shots from CCC member Dunn Ryan Mclean's live feed. It looks like most of the people are the usual suspects, including Charlene O'Farrell and the Hamilton SoO:










A few of the comments:




This is Cory Knowles, by the way.









They began marching with a police escort. Not sure where they are heading though one person (who was uncertain himself) suggested city hall:



Well, this is more of what I've come to expect sadly:

I'm going to take a bit of a break as I have an event I need to attend, however I will be back in a few hours.

UPDATE 2: AANNNDDDD I'm back.

So, anything interesting happen while I was away?






If PEGIDA Canada and their fellow far-right supporters thought that they would be welcomed as heroes, it would appear that they were badly mistaken:

More on Diane Blain (Trudeau Heckler) and Mainstream Conservative Reaction

The fallout from Le Troupeau's expose of Diane Blain and her association with the Storm Alliance and Front Patriotique du Québec continues to reverberate in Canadian political news. To recap, Blain and other members of a the far right Front Patriotique du Québec managed to get into a Liberal Party event. Ms. Blain started shouting questions at Justin Trudeau that became increasingly racially exclusive and he called her out for it. Initially Trudeau was criticized for how he handled Blain since the video only caught the latter part of the exchange and provided little context, however Le Troupeau was able to prove the whole thing was a set-up intended to cause a reaction resulting in a decidedly different understanding of the event.

Le Tropeau has provided further information since first publishing the expose:










The mainstream Conservative talking points had initially been to attack Trudeau for calling a nice, little, old lady a racist and not addressing a legitimate question. After Blain was exposed, the talking points changed.... slightly. They acknowledged that she was a racist, but the question was still legitimate and Trudeau had no right to call her a racist for asking the question.... even though she was a racist.

This is a position taken by no less than the leader of the Official Opposition:


The problem with this, as noted earlier, is that the video only caught the part where Trudeau called out Blain for being a racist. It didn't include the initial confrontation when Trudeau attempted to address her question (while a companion of her's belittled the statement concerning Mohawk territory) and only called her out when she began using offensively racist language:


And it is of course important to understand why the language Blain used was offensive:










Perhaps it shouldn't be surprised that Andrew Scheer, a man who has proven himself to be a feckless, milquetoast, coward who can't stand up to Bernier for his overt bigotry but then accuse Trudeau of being divisive for calling out a racist since too many of the people who side with both Blain and Bernier represent a sizable base of the Conservative Party right now. I mean, this IS the party that spoke of "Old Stock" Canadians, barbaric practices hotlines, and Canadian values purity tests.

Certainly, the white supremacists that ARC covers heard the dog whistle:



If Paul Fromm agrees with you, you are definitely on the wrong side of history.

Storm Alliance Staged Confrontation With Prime Minister

Back in January when Justin Trudeau was participating in a number of town halls across the country, he was also being heckled by some of the folks ARC has covered on the blog. One of those groups was the Storm Alliance, a group created by the former president of the Quebec Soldiers of Odin chapter (and the vice-president of the national group). They generally remained silent during the town hall, though their presence was intended to be intimidating I suppose.

A few days ago, the Storm Alliance confronted Mr. Trudeau in a much more overt manner:




Our friend in Quebec "Le Troupeau" on Twitter has the story:
















This next one is especially important:




UPDATE: "Le Troupeau" provides an English-language summary as well.

They Really Just Can't Get Along: Ronny Cameron, Kevin "No Show" Goudreau, Robert Jones, and the Proud Boys

I suspect that all of this is in part a fallout from the failed WCAI rally in Toronto last Saturday. If there is any consolation for members of the Canadian far-right, they aren't the only ones having a lousy time:

In fact it isn't even the WCAI failure that should be blamed at all. These people are toxic in general and since familiarity breeds contempt the more they associate with each other the more they come to despise each other as well.

For example, here Ronny Cameron modestly proclaims himself King of the Canadian Alt-Right.

Really, that's only a very slight exaggeration:


Not that it is a burden he wishes to bare. Oh no, he would much rather someone else take up the mantel but sometimes greatness is thrust upon individuals who rise to greatness. You know, like Moses, George Washington, and Happy Gilmore:


Yeah, it's all a bit melodramatic and patently ridiculous. Though I'm not inclined to think of Ronny Cameron as being the voice of white nationalism in Canada anyways, it isn't exactly the honor he seems to believe it is. Honestly, winning a hot dog eating contest would garner greater awe and respect.


Still, there are those who aren't happy to have Cameron usurp this particular status since they believe themselves to be the voice of white nationalism:


Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the saddest fucking online argument you've seen this year:


This.... this is just so.... beautiful!

WCAI "Postpone" August 11 Rally Because None Of These Groups Can Stand Each Other

This article is going to be rather screen shot heavy. I think it's worth it though.

Hey there readers. You remember when Joey Deluca of the Worldwide Coalition Against Islam posted this article on their then website (which appears to have been deep-sixed) about their planned march in Toronto on August 11 and how they were looking forward to assaulting counter-protesters?:

Well, funny story....



I'll get back to this thread in a moment, however suffice it to say the August 11 WCAI rally does not appear to be happening. Now that doesn't mean that some Islamophobes and white supremacists still won't be showing up either because they didn't get the message or because they've already made the investment (Joey doesn't seem to care that some people likely spent more money than they have available in order to join his hate rally)....


....but it does appear to mean that no one with the WCAI will be showing up to Queens Park

Oh.... sorry. I should explain this. You see despite Deluca insisting on the rally being in Nathan Phillips Square in order to "take it back" he had in fact been trying to pull a fast one on everyone by moving the rally a few blocks away to Queens Park. I suppose he thought this was clever, except that he told every single person who contacted him for details about this plan.

So much for Internet security.

Anyways, we had some indication that the event was in trouble when we found this post on the WCAI event page:


By this morning, the entire thing had blown up with numerous groups who had previously committed to participating pulling out:


One of the catalysts for this was a post by the JDL's Meir Weinstein who didn't take well to the Charlottesville imagery:


The resulting discussion is rife with antisemitic and Islamophobic slurs, threats, and people like Ron Banerjee using the opportunity to settle scores:
