After they used Sarah Jama for her social justice and community activist credentials - and then betrayed her at the very first opportunity - I decided I was done with the NDP. This country needs an actual leftist, worker-oriented party, not just Liberal Lite cosplaying as progressives.

I really wish the media would stop soft-soaping these assholes: They're not, or at least not primarily, an "anti-immigration group"; The Dominion Society are fascist ethno-nationalists. They might want to start with immigrants but their goal is the elimination of all non-whites, citizens included.

One or two signs on a busy street corner is one thing but honestly if a candidate is spamming public spaces with their electoral signs like this then it's just an admission that they don't have any actual citizens asking for lawn signs. Still, that No Name brand mustard yellow does stand out.

This violence is a direct result of the rhetoric of anti-LGBTQ+ hate groups in Niagara, coupled with the Niagara Regional Police's refusal to take homophobic threats seriously. The what makes this attack worse is the utter lack of surprise in Niagara's LGBTQ+ community. We know we're not protected.

Worst of all is the failure of communication. Thankfully this wasn't a life-or-death situation, but there clearly was a failure in disseminating news quickly and effectively. I suspect a lot of universities and colleges are going to be looking at this mess and dusting off their contingency plans.
