This weekend, some of the members and prospects of Second Sons in British Columbia got together for a hike in the North Shore Mountains. Bonds were forged through the shared physical struggle as they climbed over 1200 meters in elevation and 10 kilometers to the peak for some sparring amongst the clouds.

The National Post published an article defending the white nationalist Dominion Society because, they propose, 8% of Canadians *could,* "for argument's sake" support ethnic cleansing—meaning it's more popular than the NDP. They Included a legal argument but did not disclose the author was disbarred.
Polls have shown that roughly half of Canadians believe immigration levels are too high. Let’s say for argument’s sake that only eight per cent of Canadians support remigration, and 92 per cent oppose it. Should having only eight per cent support for your opinion mean losing your right to rent government-owned facilities, and to use public spaces like parks and sidewalks?

If yes, then no government facilities should be available for rental by the NDP, which garnered only 6.3 per cent of the popular vote in Canada’s most recent federal election. Almost 94 per cent of Canadians rejected the NDP in 2025. Yet the NDP is not disqualified from being able to exercise its Charter freedoms of expression, association and peaceful assembly.

"Common sense " is the most empty, pointless phrase in politics. I'm not sure how bringing Culture Warriors into a new party is going to solve the problem of a right-wing that has completely abandoned residents in favour of their make-believe culture war & sick internet memes.

Thank you John Rustad for coming to the anti-SOGI protest in Abbotsford.

This is not about hate - it's about love: parents' love and concern for their children.

No one here wants to see kids bullied at school  - but SOGI has failed so BC's Conservatives will repeal it.
