In their own words
“Arm yourselves. Today. If you're worried about the law, you're worried about the wrong things.” - Jeremy MacKenzie, 2025
“You gotta harden your hearts. So if hearing people talk in a very aggressive and offensive way is too much for you, are you really gonna be able to stomach like men, women and children being loaded onto fucking boats at gunpoint so they can be sent back to India? Like if the word, you know, “n****r” is obviously like the most offensive one, if that is too much for you, I seriously doubt your ability to have the intestinal fortitude to stomach what needs to happen because what needs to happen is very aggressive and extreme.” - Alex Vriend, 2024
“‘Are you gonna, are you gonna suggest deporting the Jews?’ Yeah. Yeah, I think, I think we do all the time.” - Alex Vriend reading and responding to a comment on his livestream, 2024
“Give me some guys and some weapons and we'll fucking get rid of them. We'll take them up. Get in the truck, you're going to the airport. ‘Make me.’ Okay, bang. Anybody else? Anybody else not want to go to the airport? Who wants to go to the airport? Show of hands, who wants to go to the airport? I only had to shoot one, see? Easy. - Jeremy MacKenzie, 2024
“It's funny, this all started as a joke. Making YouTube videos, but then we got noticed, right? The Prime Minister had said our name in the House of Commons multiple times. So, we realized that we can move the needle in politics in Canada. So we decided to take it a little bit more seriously.” - Derek Harrison, Road Rage Terror Tour stop in Carp, Ontario, 2024

Their lack of education is showing. Governments gotta get on top of that.

Lack of education is a feature not a bug, it's a lot harder for the ruling class to manipulate educated people who might develop their own independent opinions. You need workers who are just smart enough to do their jobs.

Ruling class? Where did you vomit up that garbage from?
