Ronny Cameron Off The Rails: Part 1

Sometimes it is fun to be a force of chaos.

Yesterday ARC published a story identifying the leader of Generation Identity Canada as well as his connection to Stormfront. In what might have been a complete coincidence Ronny Cameron, a person covered on this blog sometimes seen recording people at progressive events who promotes the white genocide conspiracy and has participated in a number of anti-immigrant/anti-refugee/anti-Muslim rallies in Toronto, also posted a missive about Tyler Hover on his Facebook profile perhaps less than an hour after ARC's story:

Remember his condemnation of white nationalism. You may or may not be surprised where it eventually leads to.

In any case, what I'm going to post is close to the totality of the argument that was precipitated by Cameron's post above. I'm going to post all of them order. The final one will also be relevant when it comes to the writing of Part 3 and Part 4 of this mini-series. I will probably include a few observations later, but the story should really speak for itself.

However, one observation was made by a friend who also witnessed the train wreck as it unfolded and which you are about to see for yourself:

As much of a goof as Tyler is, he's actually not entirely wrong. Ronny is a massive opportunist and Rebel Media wannabe willing to cut back on those who ruin the image of his dysfunctional movement in exchange for some Boomer rage.

Another friend wrote the following:

It's impressive how he can claim to be a "unifier" while getting into fistfights (both literally and metaphorically) with half the leaders in the "movement"

This is the first of two attacks Cameron directed at folks who he believes have wronged him. I hope that you enjoy it. :)

Likely Generation Identity Canada Leader Revealed

In addition to rebranding themselves as "alt-right," members of the white nationalist/supremacist movement have also adopted the label of identitarian. The movement which originated in France is virulently anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim, promotes the "white genocide" conspiracy theory, and support a reactionary and patriarchal traditionalism. One group that falls under this label is Generation Identity. Our readers might be more familiar with former "Rebel Media" propagandist Lauren Southern's involvement with the group when this summer they tried to prevent rescuers from saving migrants on the Mediterranean Sea in July 2017:

Canadian Lauren Southern, a former reporter for the right-wing Rebel Media, was part of the crew blocking Aquarius, and she has been an open supporter and fundraiser for C-Star. 

Southern's profile on the crowdfunding site Patreon was removed last week, in part due to the lobbying efforts of Hope Not Hate — a move she has decried as a violation of her free speech.

• A European alt-right group wants to take to the sea to stop rescuers from saving migrants
• Europe’s alt-right launches campaign to “chase down” refugee boats at sea, quickly raises $100,000
• Europe’s far-right pirates of the Mediterranean are targeting refugee rescue missions

It also seems that members or supporters of Generation Identity participated in the racist Charlottesville "Unite the Right" rally that resulted in a number of attacks by white supremacists against counter-protesters including the murder of Heather Heyer:

Generation Identity Canada began roughly in August but announced it's presence in this country in September when supporters of the hate group posted flyers and stickers in a number of cities primarily in Ontario and Quebec (though also some locations in Manitoba and the Atlantic provinces); the campaign continued in October:

The hate group has been careful to not reveal much information about the membership which is believed to be relatively small, however recently the following was posted to Ronny Cameron's Facebook profile suggesting the group is planning on a coming out party of sorts:

Focusing on the last part....

It is sort of fortuitous that "Tyler" here has decided to act as the herald of the Grand Poobah of Generation Identity Canada since it is suspected the he is likely said Grand Poobah.

Meet Tyler Hover folks:

ARC has actually very briefly written about Hover before in relation to his apology to the Finish  Soldiers of Odin due to the Canadian chapter breaking away from the mother chapter. However if truth be told, I and others have been keeping an eye on Tyler for a number of years.

More on that momentarily. In the meantime why don't I introduce you to the Tyler Hover who is believed to head Generation Identity Canada?

First of all, Tyler actually has a number of accounts that he uses including "Silas Von Höffer":

Tyler here is referring to the Million Deplorable March on Parliament that missed a million people by just a smidgen:

Tyler might have been a bit disillusioned since he posted this in November 2017 (edited screen shot that does not include all comments):

Shawn refers to the Storm Alliance/La Meute protest that occurred in
October in the first photo while the second refers to the "Unite the
Right" white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Before I continue I should mention that in the above post there are two individuals who have crossed out paths before. The first is Patrick Jolin who is suspected of having at one time been involved with Students For Western Civilization (another identitarian group):

The other is Shawn Beauvais-Macdonald, a member of La Meute and a participant in the Charlottesville white supremacist rally:

Shawn Beauvais-MacDonald spoke with VICE News Canada about his beliefs and why he chose to participate in the rally that turned violent and resulted in the death of a woman, two police officers, and dozens more injuries.

Getting back to to Hover, his activity on social media provides ample proof about the views that he, and by extension Generation Identity, holds:

He also provided a brief biography in which he refers to his mommy:

Tyler's claims about "antifa" ransacking his house is interesting in that it contradicts a claim that he made elsewhere:

Oh! Did I forget to mention that I've been aware of Tyler Hover's activity on Stormfront, the largest hate site in the world, for years?

My bad.

I won't include every screen shot of the 237 posted to Stormfront, but I will post a number of them so this will take a while.

Why don't you get a drink and a snack before I begin?

"Alt-Right" and Overt Racist Misogynists Focus Attention On Lauren Southern

Something that has become clear during my 10 years of running ARC as well as the decade of work preceding the blog is that most of the racists I've come across hate women as much as they hate any non-white ethnic group, Jew, or Muslim as per the following rather disgusting example:

This shouldn't be a surprise. The racist movement has historically been dominated by men who view women even of the same ethnicity not as their equals but at best as baby factories. Relatively few women seem to enter into this world which further supports the jaded view of these men that "white women" are morally weak and easily led astray by cultural trends. Of those few women who do enter this world, many if not most soon become disillusioned by the hypocrisy, rampant sexual violence, and toxic social environment fostered by the movement. The mindset of many men, frustrated by their inability to find sexual partners, might be understood in the context of the novel KD Rebel written by convicted murderer and terrorist David Lane. The novel is for all intents and purposes an extended rape fantasy in which the heroes kidnap women from urban centers, divide them among themselves, and sexually assault them until they accept their fate as wives and incubators of the new order while their "husbands" engage in a campaign of genocidal terror.

ARC has written about this many times in the past including one article that examined the phenomena from both an historical and contemporary perspective  (we also had a guest author who came at the issue from a sociological point-of-view). A frequent example of the "white nationalist" mind regarding women found on ARC has been VNN mainstay and London, Ontario resident Tomasz Winnicki:

In recent years the racist movement has made an effort to rebrand itself as "alt-right." Those alt-right supporters linked to.... let's say 4Chan are also notoriously misogynistic as well (see Gamergate controversy as an example), however some members of this subgroup of bigots are often more adept at using social media and cultural touchstones. They couch their hatred in appeals to nationalism and tradition. The movement is also notoriously anti-feminist. Still, that anti-feminism has counter-intuitively attracted some women who have become quite prominent figures in the alt-right:

Lauren Southern, formerly of Ezra Levant's "Rebel Media," has been a bit of a darling of the alt-right due to youth and attractiveness, her attacks on feminism, and her support of ultra-conservative traditionalism; she has amassed a considerable following. Her appeal has crossed over into the more overt racists on Stormfront and even the even more racist VNN:

However she and other female alt-right personalities have come to shockingly learn that their male alt-right anti-feminist admirers are misogynistic assholes who thought it was all cute that these women were speaking out in support of their retrogressive values, but now it is time for them to shut up, marry good white men, and start pumping out the babies:

• Alt-Right Women Want To Be Equal To Alt-Right Men & That’s … Feminism
• 'Alt-Right' women are sick of sexism from 'Alt-Right' men
• "Alt-right" women discover that bitter racists are also sexist jerks

One of those "alt-right" men attacking their female alt-right counterparts is rape advocate Daryush "Roosh V" Valizadeh who's trip to Canada went rather poorly, though Ezra (as it turns out ironically) engaged in a softball interview with him.

La Meute Kaput?

Not long after Pamela Geller and Ezra Levant spoke at a Jewish Defence League event in Toronto, Bryan Trottier of the Canadian Wolf Pack (the chapter of La Meute outside Quebec) celebrate what he and the participants considered to be a successful presentation and thanked those whom he claims made it all possible:

Many of those who Trottier called out by name are featured in this photograph taken with Geller:

They are indeed a classy gang, ain't they?

Really, I have no idea why adults think flipping off a camera is edgy these days.

In any case, while the English chapter of La Meute seems to be pleased, it is really small potatoes when compared to the much larger Quebec chapter, and it seems that the Quebec chapter is in a whole heap of trouble.

The first indication of this trouble was alluded to in this post:

What soon became apparent upon further investigation is that there had been a complete breakdown of leadership with numerous resignations occurring over the holidays:

Scission au sein de La Meute après le départ de trois administrateurs 

Trois des administrateurs, dont Sylvain « Maikan » Brouillette, ont quitté le mouvement jeudi

An English Google translation of the above article states the following:

The right-wing identity group La Meute has lost in the last few days three of its directors, including the spokesperson and figurehead of the Sylvain Brouillette movement. Internal struggles are at the origin of this split, which leaves the movement in uncertainty. 

Sylvain "Maikan" Brouillette confirmed to the Journal Thursday his decision to leave La Meute, a choice made "in the interest of the group," according to him. "I'm convinced that as long as I'm in the group, he'll do anything to destroy it," he says of Éric Proulx, one of the other four leaders of the group. 

The latter would have taken absolute control of the pages of La Meute on social networks, according to Mr. Brouillette, eliminating at the same time the access of other leaders to different groups. 

"We were five leaders on the board, and on December 24th, I do not know what took him, but he decided that he was taking a hit. He took control and we all went out, "says the former leader, without being able to detail the reasons for this decision which, in his opinion, resembles" a war of power ". 

By doing so, Eric Proulx took the members of La Meute "hostage", denounces Sylvain Brouillette. 

For his part, Eric Proulx says he slammed the door before the other two, following a conflict on December 25. He refutes the accusations of Sylvain Brouillette and claims today to have left all the pages of La Meute by himself, leaving the management to others.

The article goes on to suggest that the two remaining board members of La Meute might be able to maintain leadership and see the gang continue, however ARC has seen this time and time again. Once there is a substantial amount of dissent within such groups, the end is usually not far off.

As ARC's readers are well aware, my intel gathering in Quebec, though improved, is still pretty poor owing in large part to a language barrier because SOMEONE decided taking Classical Greek in university rather than French would be useful. What can I say? Youth is wasted on the young. However one of the sources this writer has come to rely on for information on La Meute is found on the twitter account of Le Troupeau who has the best information of the collapse of La Meute:

Storm Alliance Still Insist False News Is True and Retraction Is False As Well As Connection to Online Threats

It has been more than a week since TVA in Quebec retracted their story claiming two Montreal mosques had demanded women be barred from working in the area on Fridays. The story has been been proven false but that hasn't stopped some individuals and groups such as the Storm Alliance from continuing to perpetuate the falsehood claiming that the retraction was the result of pressure from the Liberal governments of Quebec and Ottawa:

The Storm Alliance doesn't believe that TVA's fake news is fake. And on top of that close friends of Dave Treg are now going to mosques to harass people. This is a really toxic atmosphere #onestpasracistes pic.twitter.com/Z2oJCIhrsQ

— Le Troupeau (@LetroupeauQC) December 23, 2017

Not only has Storm Alliance president David Tregget continued to insist that the retracted story is in fact true, but he and folks connected to the Storm Alliance now appear to have escalated their efforts by engaging in a campaign of harassment:

Pour ceux qui pensaient que les vidéos de Josée Rivard et Dave Treg sont inoffensifs, on a maintenant des gens qui proposent d'aller,'à toutes les semaines, harceler des gens de la communauté musulmane. #onestpasracistes pic.twitter.com/ARMwL2pN09

This information comes on a day that Quebec police have arrested a man for making online threats directed towards the Muslim-Canadian community within Quebec:

Quebec City police arrest suspect in connection with online threats against Muslims 

The RCMP tipped off Quebec City police about the commentsCBC News Posted: Dec 23, 2017 12:36 PM ET Last Updated: Dec 23, 2017 2:14 PM ET 

A man has been arrested by Quebec City police for allegedly making hateful comments about Muslims online. 

Nicolas Thériault, 46, was arrested Friday and appeared in court Saturday to face charges of inciting hate and uttering threats. 

Quebec City police (SPVQ) said they were informed about the comments, which appeared on a social media site, by the RCMP. 

"In that message, there were incitements of hatred against the Muslim community," SPVQ spokesperson Mélissa Cliche told CBC News.
....
Thériault was released on $500 bail and under numerous conditions, including staying more than 500 metres away from all Quebec mosques and not being allowed to own weapons or use a computer. 

Jan. 29 will mark the first anniversary of the deadly mosque shooting in Quebec City which killed six people and wounded 19.

Le Troupeau noted the following connection to Tregget:

Donc l'homme qui s'est fait arrêté pour incitation à la haine s'appelle Nicolas Thériault. Il était assez actif sur l'internet et avait diffusé un message après la fausse nouvelle de @tvanouvelles. Il est aussi proche des groupes d'extrême droite et @DaveTreg #onestpasracistes pic.twitter.com/8Pj5KZwqWK

— Le Troupeau (@LetroupeauQC) December 23, 2017

And it seems that this example of incitement is only the tip of a really ugly iceberg:

On apprend aujourd'hui qu'un homme de Québec s'est fait arrêter pour incitation à la haine envers les musulmans.
De 0 à 10, 0 étant pas du tout et 10 étant incitation à la haine.

Southern Ontario Skins: A Cast of Stooges Part XII

It's been a while since ARC has published a story about our favorite, bumbling, bonehead, basket-cases (I was going for some alliteration for humorous effect .... it sort of works if you're willing to be charitable). The reason for this is mostly because there hasn't been all that much to say. Of those who were active members or associates of the London, Ontario-based hate group, Max Hynes appears to be the only one active aside from Dan Hall and Toronto Creativity Movement leader Wes Smith both of whom generally confine their racism to social media these days. Hynes for example is one of the moderators of Kevin "No-Show" Goudreau's White Canadian Nationalist Front:

And my goodness how sad is it that Hynes is willing to subordinate himself to.... well....

In any case it seems that most of the membership has either been kicked out or left of their own volition because hanging out with a roided out (allegedly) rage freak with the intellectual capacity of a doughnut whole wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Still the original cast of stooges, from Dan Hall and Adrian Graves to Luke Northmore and Brodie Walsh were all entertaining in their own way.

ARC's favorite SOS bonehead though was, and always will be, Jeremy Crawford:

ARC's long time readers could hardly forget Crawford. In May 2014, Crawford contacted ARC with the hopes of joining the Southern Ontario Skins because (a) he missed the "Anti" part of "Anti-Racist Canada" and (b) he's an idiot. He was sent a message but didn't reply so we thought that he had managed to realize he had made a mistake in contacting us.

However, on July 1 he finally replied resulting in the most entertaining and enlightening month-long email exchange this writer had ever been a part of.

For those unfamiliar or those who enjoyed it the first time, feel free to reacquaint yourselves with that article. I'll happily wait. Here is is again.
.
.
.

.

Okay, are we ready to continue?

In that exchange we learned that Crawford considered his extensive criminal record and prison history to be the sort of curriculum vitae that Hynes and the SOS would be impressed by. And sure enough there was ample examples online including the following:

• Gun lying in middle of road leads police to 10 more
• Two arrested following raid

Not long after Crawford FINALLY clued in, he did meet up with Hynes and the gang and received that t-shirt he was desperate to get his hands on:

After that and aside from a few rather brief mentions as a result of his social media activities, we sort of forgot about Crawford and as the SOS began to decline into relative obscurity, ARC stopped paying much attention to the gang entirely.

Then, last night, I suddenly wondered what Jeremy Crawford had been up to in the years since we last heard about him last? I mean, it was a completely out of the blue thought that popped into my head whereas I was contemplating whether or not to have a grilled cheese sandwich.

So I fired up the ol' interweb machine and did a quick search of his name:

Sarnia man stole phone and assaulted stranger 

By Neil Bowen, Sarnia Observer
Tuesday, November 22, 2016 10:41:01 EST AM 

A Sarnia man's lengthy criminal record for violence contributed to a nearly nine-month sentence for assault and theft. 

Jeremy Daniel Crawford, 35, pleaded guilty Monday in Sarnia court to the theft of a man's cell phone and the assault of another man when he threatened to use a hammer.

Synagogues in Five Canadian Cities Targeted And Jewish Couple Found Dead; Antisemites Pleased As Punch

ARC has been publish articles focusing on the Islamophobia movement in this country as well as the dehumanization of Muslim-Canadians and refugees. And it is not uncommon to note that there is often a crossover between those who hate Muslims and those who also target Jews:

Today we were reminded that Jewish-Canadians are the most frequent targets of racially-based attacks:

'An 8 on the frighten scale': Toronto synagogue troubled by letter calling for Jewish genocideHate mail featuring anti-Semitic imagery received by at least 5 synagogues across Canada on Monday
CBC News Posted: Dec 18, 2017 10:38 PM ET Last Updated: Dec 19, 2017 6:08 PM ET 

Members of the Toronto synagogue Adath Israel Congregation opened a plain-looking envelope to find a swastika and the words "Jewry must perish" on Monday, an occurrence that human rights organization B'nai Brith Canada says happens all too frequently. 

The letter, featuring a full-page drawing of a swastika inside what appears to be a bleeding Star of David, left members of the congregation afraid for their safety, B'nai Brith Canada representative Marty York said.
....
B'nai Brith Canada reported that the same letter had been delivered to synagogues in Montreal, Hamilton and Edmonton. They're aware of five letters in total, but York suspects there may be more.
....
The organization reported last spring they'd heard about more than 1,700 anti-Semitic incidents across Canada last year, the highest number yet. 

The group has been tracking anti-Semitic incidents since 1982, which is based on police data and calls to the group's anti-hate hotline. Of the 1,728 incidents, 490 occurred in Ontario.

Pam Geller and Ezra Levant Event In Toronto: A Brief Who's Who.

By the time this article is published, the JDL sponsored event featuring Pam Geller and Ezra Levant may very well be in full swing. As such ARC decided to remind the readers who is and who claims they will be attending the event.

First of all is our buddy Steven Alexander Blair Kelley Newton Glass Gregory Myatt and Georges Massaad were among the first to provide footage of the venue:

So Myatt is in charge of the Northern Guard's public affairs bureau, eh? Sounds pretty fancy. It does remind this reader though that the Northern Guard, along with La Meute/CDN Wolfpack, Proud Boys, Threepers, and of course the JDL, are according to Wolfpack head Bryan Trottier providing security.... though apparently this is news to the organizers.

In any case, as the head of the Northern Guard's public affairs, perhaps Steven would like to discuss with Pam and Ezra why there are so many anti-semites in the Northern Guard, including the founder and president of the national chapter:

The III%ers Were Nestled All Snug In Their Beds, While Visions Of Murder And Genocide Danced In Their Heads

Every once in a while I check on the III% militia pages to see what they are up to. The Alberta Threepers are consistently the most active which, when one looks at their Facebook page, really is an ignominious distinction:

ARC has recently been covering the Alberta III% militia's efforts to get into the addictions recovery business (see here and here). On December 13, the president of the Alberta Threeper chapter provided an update on that effort:

Now ARC's readers will forgive me for being somewhat dubious about this endeavor on the face of it given claims concerning Ron "Beau" Welling's business acumen. However as I've stated in previous articles should this effort actually result in an armed militia who may also be regarded as a hate group getting into the addictions recover business, I can't imagine that they will view all Canadians equally worthy of support.

I mean, given comments about the recent by-elections in which the Liberals won 3 of 4 contests (including one seat previously occupied by conservative MPs for decades) as being the result of Muslims, immigrants, and "not real Canadians" one has to question their commitment to helping all Canadians struggling with addiction including the ones that are not "old stock":

Yeah, calling for a civil war and the military to overthrow the government because you don't like the results of an election don't help your case either.

Then there was that time on Tuesday where they posted a story about a Muslim murdered on video and uploaded to the Internet. The Threepers commenting offered their congratulations to the suspect:
