Atomwaffen Division – The Seth Bertrand Court Case

This morning I was on CBC Radio – Windsor live to discuss the ongoing court case of Seth Bertrand. He has been charged with terrorism for attempting to join the Atomwaffen Division (AWD), a listed terrorist organization in Canada. The AWD was an accelerationist neo-Nazi group that began on the now defunct Iron March forum. They are known for wanting to cause chaos by dismantling society through violence and then taking over the government to establish a white ethnostate dictatorship.

Home Schooling and the Christian Nationalist Movement in Canada

I was interviewed by XTRA! about the home school movement in Canada, and its links to Christian Nationalism and the “Groomer” moral panic. Is this a new frontier for attacking the educational system in Canada? Christian nationalists in Canada have been pushing to remove children from schools in response to sex education and SOGI in schools. The fear of indoctrination of students, often preyed upon by populist politicians globally, is also building in nationalistic movements using tropes of religious persecution and fear mongering.
