Canada Designates the Proud Boys a Terrorist Organization, Making Buying Proud Boys Gear a Crime
The Canadian government has just become the first to designate the Proud Boys founded by Canadian writer and far-right commentator Gavin McInnes a terrorist entity, which makes giving them money or buying Proud Boys paraphernalia a crime in Canada.
While constantly denying that they have white nationalist or racist ties, the Proud Boys have regularly been associated with far-right activities and street violence in the last several years particularly as highly vocal foes of Antifa and the Black Lives Matter movement. And after gaining widespread media attention first in a mention by then-President Donald Trump during a televised debate last fall, and then when its current leader was arrested in Washington D.C. ahead of the January 6 riots, the Canadian government is declaring the organization a hostile terrorist one.
