    So they want to root out members that believe fascism is bad? I would hope every member is against fascism.

      Surprise! Every conservative is pro-fascism. That’s why they’re conservative. Most of them just don’t know it yet, until their mouthpieces tell them how to think.

    Canadians know antifi just means antifascist and that is a good thing. If the conservatives support fascism i hope that party dies horribly and never recovers.

    Those idiots learned nothing from the most epic defeat in Canadian history. Outside of a few trailer parks in Alberta, no one wants this culture war bullshit.

      You overestimate the public. They have about 30% support.

    To find the antifa in CAF, Genuis just needs to open a history book:

    https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/liberation-of-holland

    The MP should be aware of the ‘fa’ problem in our military as well.

      I know the article is ringing the alarm bell, but I just gotta say I hate the way folks use the phrase “few bad apples” these days. It’s a shortening of the saying “a few bad apples spoil the bunch” meaning even if it was “just a few bad apples” we still ought to fire everyone and start again lol

    Why, why is the boggy group of Anti Fasciats being brought up as a worry in Canada?

      Conservatives are dollar-store Republicans.

      That’s kinda it. A little dumber, a little more sad in the pearl-clutching, a little more pathetic in their polite disdain of brown, non-male, and/or poor people, a little more ignorant in their rejection of expertise across the board.

      We’re at the stage where our guys can be heckled and laughed out of it, even if it’ll Nickelback their supporters a little harder.
