Maxime Bernier is against "extreme multiculturalism," wants to decrease immigration levels, eliminate foreign aid, and protect "free speech". This is a platform aligned with today's white supremacists at Rebel Media and identical to what white supremacists were saying in 1980s
What was notorious neo-Nazi Paul Fromm up to in the 1980s? Oh, just running his two organizations, the Canadian Association for Free Expression and Citizens for Foreign Aid Reform, ranting about non-white immigrants with different values. 💁‍♂️ #MaximeBernier
What even are "Canadian values"? If they include Bernier's example (support for gay rights), then our Canadian values are things that had to be fought for over decades against the reactionary forces like Bernier himself. What a hypocritical joke. #MaximeBernier
btw I'm sure that Max's call with white supremacists at the Nationalist Party was totally a coincidence and not reflective of his politics of constituency #MaximeBernier nationalpost.com/news/politics/…
Of course, I'm not asserting that Bernier *IS* a white supremacist, I'm saying that he is packaging his political project in the same terms as white supremacists do, and historically have, and is clearly an appealing option for white supremacists. So. Make of that what you will.

I just watched Katie Hopkins' new documentary about "genocide" of white people in South Africa, produced by Ezra Levant's Rebel Media. As far as delusional racist agitprop goes, it was completely unwatchable. A couple of thoughts... #plaasmoorde #cdnpoli
We've been waiting 8 months for this film's release. Since it is basically a mashup of her previously released videos, this delay makes absolutely no sense. What has she been doing??

I've already dealt with most of its themes for @africasacountry: africasacountry.com/2018/02/search…
#Plaasmoorde is completely unwatchable. It's basically a stream-of-consciousness veering between highly exploitative accounts of violent crime, dubious witnesses speculating about conspiracy theories. It's even worse than #Farmlands!

Faith Goldy insists she is not into white supremacy, only "racial self-interest."

This "self-interest" motivates her to spread fear about non-white people coming into Canada. And to wax nostalgic for apartheid South Africa. And to go on neo-Nazi podcasts & recommend Nazi books
"Racial self-interest" is behind the obsession of Goldy, Southern, and Hopkins with so-called #WhiteGenocide in South Africa. They want us to believe that if we allow too many non-white refugees into Canada, whites will be "hunted to extinction" africasacountry.com/2018/02/search…
Is it "white supremacy" to believe that Europeans and black Africans have an IQ gap which is “absolutely enormous," and that therefore giving everyone in South Africa an equal vote might not work? Because that's an idea Lauren Southern agreed with in an interview with Molyneux

According to @CANADALAND, one of the Toronto Sun's 5 thematic areas in covering the Ontario election is "cultural wars" & attacking equity canadalandshow.com/toronto-sun-pr…

Now seems like a good time to recall how, for years, a Sun columnist wrote articles in support of apartheid #onpoli
McKenzie Porter was a Toronto Sun columnist for years, and consistently wrote pro-apartheid articles like this one from 1981.Good luck finding another Canadian writing in a mainstream publication exhibiting this level of explicit, horrific, racism. Some quotes...
"Left-lib denunciations of South African policy spring from the illusion that all men are equal. If the whites of South Africa enfranchised the primitive black majority, social chaos would ensue." - Toronto Sun columnist McKenzie Porter, 1981 #onpoli
