Talk to me about right-wing extremism, Christian nationalism, conspirituality & community responses to hate
Neufeld is a former SD33 trustee & longtime anti-2SLGBTQ+/anti-SOGI activist who took up the Freedom Convoy cause to influence the current rise of trans- & homophobia.

(Neufeld is in the middle.)

Posted by a "farmer" convoy participant without a shred of irony.

3/ More events around BC:

Fort St John (with support from Dawson Creek), Prince George, Quesnel, 100 Mile House
November 21, 2025 at 7:59 PM
2/ This event is part of a national day of protest precipitated by the cull at Universal Ostrich Farms following detection of avian influenza in their birds.

However, it's not being organized by farmers or by farming-related organizations. It's just another Freedom Convoy event.

9AM: Abbotsford

12/ Update on Ron Pearce, owner of Foundry Combat Sports in Duncan & an attendee: he originally posted a statement defending his participation in a neo-Nazi event & threatened to sue the CBC but has released a new statement to apologize.

Yearly reminder that Canadian white nationalist get really weird about Remembrance Day.

11/ Paul Waggener (Wolves of Vinland & Operation Werewolf) has been crashing out for several days over this investigation.

He's covering his Schwarze Sonne tattoo in this video.

7/ Third Born & Seconds Sons also gather somewhat regularly around Fort Langley & Derby Reach Regional Park in @langleytownship.bsky.social.
November 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
6/ In September, Third Born, Second Sons & their allies took a field trip to Cypress Provincial Park in @westvandistrict.bsky.social.

5/ Gym culture can breed right-wing extremism if given the space to do so & I'm glad that more journalists are covering Active Clubs & Second Sons. People in the Lower Mainland also need to be aware of fascist group activities in nature's gyms: the great outdoors.
November 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
4/ This is just fascist propaganda.

As a powerlifter, I am thoroughly embarrassed by that bench attempt. You can learn to lift without diving head-first into neo-Nazi ideology.
November 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
3/ Third Born is led by neo-Nazi & mega Diagolon fan Nigel McDougall. Here is McDougall at Diagolon's 2024 event in Langley (far right of the photo, fittingly). He also does cool things like promote Hitler's speeches.
November 10, 2025 at 8:23 PM
2/ Next, some spaces used by Third Born (a Fraser Valley-based Active Club), Second Sons & their allies. They've held multiple training sessions & meetups at Box2Fit's Langley location, owned by Frankie LaSasso. (Photo from Box2Fit's IG on the left, fashy meetup on the right.)

1/ CBC & @antihate.ca released some excellent reporting on a neo-Nazi gathering in Vancouver on July 26. This thread covers more local context & organizing.

To start, here is one very interesting Facebook friendship between Exiles of the Golden Age's Lane Pommer & MP Aaron Gunn.

Nazi self-help, very literally in the bargain bin.
November 9, 2025 at 10:48 PM
Ostrich supporters are still making death threats against employees of Super Save (and anyone else they believe to be involved in the cull).
November 8, 2025 at 7:38 PM
The source of this appears to be a Facebook Live posted by Katie Pasitney. Ostrich followers claim to be hanging around West Coast Reduction property looking for evidence.
November 8, 2025 at 7:38 PM
The ostrich...followers...have decided that West Coast Reduction Ltd, the rendering plant in East Van, will be disposing of the culled ostriches. West Coast Reduction posted this yesterday evening.
November 8, 2025 at 7:38 PM
The Supreme Court of Canada will not hear Universal Ostrich Farms' case, which means the cull is no longer stayed.
November 6, 2025 at 2:54 PM
The Universal Ostrich Farms saga could be coming to an end--the Supreme Court of Canada is currently scheduled to decide if they will take the case or not on Nov 6.
