The rise of the far right is often discussed as a European or American issue, but Canada is rarely part of the conversation.
In this episode of Real Talk, independent journalist Rachel Gilmore joins Mohamed Hashem to discuss the growing ecosystem of white nationalist groups in Canada, including the rise of so-called ‘Active Clubs’.
The Canadian Anti-Hate Network now warns that the white nationalist movement in Canada has never been larger or more dangerous.
Gilmore also speaks about the personal cost of reporting on the far right in Canada, from online harassment and threats to having her live location shared.
