The Proud Boys is a far-right and neo-fascist organization that admits only men as members and promotes and engages in political violence. It is based in the United States and has a presence in Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom.

Founded in 2016 by a Canadian Gavin McInnes

n 2018, McInnes was banned from Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for violating terms of use related to promoting violent extremist groups and hate speech. In June 2020, McInnes’s account was suspended from YouTube for violating YouTube’s policies concerning hate speech, posting content that was “glorifying [and] inciting violence against another person or group of people.”

According to his remarks (Stand back/Stand by) during the 2020 Presidential debate it seems President Donald Trump is a fanboy !

Fast forward ahead to June 6,2022

The former top leader and other members of the far-right Proud Boys extremist group were charged with seditious conspiracy for what federal prosecutors say was a co-ordinated attack on the U.S. Capitol to stop Congress from certifying Joe Biden’s 2020 electoral victory.

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol could arguably through it’s investigations find evidence to recommend seditious conspiracy charges against Fanboy Trump !

Fanboy joins Proud Boy pals in the slammer

Disclaimer: This may prove to be a fantasy because of the inaction of the US Department of Justice.Stay tuned!

Their ancestors were sworn enemies. Now two artists are exploring the power of apology

Adrian Stimson & AA Bronson emphasize conciliation, arguing that conciliation needs to be achieved before reconciliation is possible.

“When the government apologizes, that’s fine, and a lot of people did a lot of work around that. But the real acts of conciliation happen between individuals. It’s the people themselves who have to take it upon themselves to find ways of creating relationships,” Stimson said. “And it may not always end up in an apology. But it’s so important to understand that history, and look to ways of repairing or creating new relationships into the future.”

The top 20 richest billionaires in Canada have amassed $37 billion in collective wealth increases since March, when COVID-related lockdowns and closures began across Canada, according to a new report from the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives.

Not a single one of the top 20 billionaires in Canada has suffered a decrease in their overall wealth since the emergence of COVID-19. According to the CCPA report, the massive wealth gain at the very top “reflects the increasingly clear decoupling of the stock market from the real economy.”
