Well it seems the efforts of Yellow Jackets Canada Exposed and the Canadian Anti-Hate Network (and perhaps to some small extent my own) have resulted in a statement regarding David Selvers from someone who looks to be an organizer for the convoy:

[Image]
Well that's just lovely, however his Facebook post last night sort of belies that claim:

[Image]
In the meantime, Selvers has taken to complaining about how he's the victim of a smear campaign for.... you know.... posting exactly what he himself wrote on his blog:

If you would like to be reminded about who Dave Selvers is and what he has written, feel free to click on the following links:

Deon R. Doiron has responded to Tweets by ARC, Yellow Vests Canada Exposed, and the Canadian Anti-Hate Network that both support Selvers and the convoy:

Then there's this:

And in further news that will surprise almost no one, Doiron is a supporter of Bernier's PPC and claims to be a "founding member":

Shocked! I'm shocked!

Well, not so shocked actually.
Getting back to the Convoy to Ottawa event, while it is nice that Jason Corbeil claims that Selvers is just a "bad apple" and not indicative of the beliefs of the others involved, it takes very little to find more examples of "bad apples" like Selvers.
With that, let me reacquaint readers with someone who hasn't appeared on the blog for a while, Christopher Hayes:
[Image]   Christopher Hayes first came to ARC's attention when, as someone linked to the Soldiers of Odin through his own support and through his brother who was a chapter leader in Saskatchewan, he was arrested for making threats against the Prime Minister. Hayes was eventually convicted and spent roughly a year on probation.  Man Arrested for Threatening Prime Minster: Ties to Canadian Extremist Group Soldiers of Odin Soldier of Odin Member Christopher Hayes Update 1 Soldier of Odin Member Christopher Hayes Update 2 Associate of Soldiers of Odin in Saskatchewan Found Guilty of Uttering Threats Directed at Prime Minister [Image]
He was also active in his support of the III% militia:
[Image]
In addition to his anti-government (and anti-vaccination, btw) stance, Hayes was also virulently Islamophobic:
[Image]
[Image]   During this time he was drawn to and became a member of the WCAI (Worldwide Coalition Against Islam), soon becoming the Saskatchewan "captain":

From Canadian Far Right Here his is promoting both the WCAI and their protest outside a Red Deer high school where members of the the WCAI harassed school administration and students:

Because Why Not? Racism and Violence Within WCAI and Canadian Combat Coalition He also spoke at WCAI events in Calgary, including the ill fated MEGA Patriot Rally that turned out to be considerably less than mega:

And yet....

Yeah, Christopher Hayes is one of the participants in the Ottawa convoy: [Image]

Not a good look.
And to those who might suggest Hayes' racist views were in the past and are not a reflection of what he believes now, here are a few screen shots taken over the past month that puts the lie to that claim:

And then there's his continued involvement with hate groups such as the Canadian Combat Coaltion:
1. Hayes posted online that he’s driving in the convoy. The threat included in the article is not even as bad as a lot of what we’ve covered from #YellowVestCanada @facebook pages. @rcmpgrcpolice what gives? https://t.co/vDz0FudX50 — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 18, 2019 2. https://t.co/AGBEfV5OHY — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 18, 2019 More on Hayes here, thanks to @ARCCollective https://t.co/fnO5D4BsGc — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 18, 2019 @ARsudbury has identified footage with Dan Dubois, leader of Canadian Combat Coalition, a hate group, leading the convoy off the road, and talking with convoy participants. They refer to themselves as Yellow Vests.

These are the extremists Carritt says aren’t welcome. #cdnpoli https://t.co/i30ElNZ1iD — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 18, 2019 Why is Dan Dubois, national leader of Canadian Combat Coalition, leading the convoy to the gas station? Didn’t Carritt say extremists weren’t part of their movement? C3 is a hate group. https://t.co/2wu64Yu0jl

Unite the Right, Canadian Edition. https://t.co/cPsyDXGaFQ — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 More on C3, as well as other groups whose supporters are involved with the convoy, here: https://t.co/NMAdslfFSz thanks to @ARCCollective — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 1. We reviewed the video of the Sudbury convoy meet today, taken by Dan Dubois, Canadian Combat Coalition national present.

Below are observations and time stamps. THREAD https://t.co/X6PtQVx5ww — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 2.
0:22 - “wanna hug a Yellow Vester?” Clearly YV related. The YV is also wearing a MCGA hat.

1:50 - Dan Unrau, Ontario president of C3 (Canadian Combat Coalition)

2:35 - Dubois talking up C3 to CBC

9:57 - “awesome yellow vest patriots,” - Dan Dubois — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 3.
11:20 - “looking for Christopher,” - Dubois

Turns out it’s Christopher Hayes, who we tweeted about earlier today. Hayes was convicted of uttering threats against Trudeau and is associated with hate groups like WCAI, JDL, and others. https://t.co/vDKSDkMy6O — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 4.
12:35 - chatting with Hayes; they’re very aware of and appear to be big fans of each other. “I was looking for ya!” - both. Dubois gives him some C3 merch. They talk about Ottawa.

20:26 - another MCGA hat

27:44 - Dubois tells a few people that C3 are “part of this.” — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 5. Observations: Many YV are very familiar with who C3 is & appear to be fans of theirs.

C3 claims to be a big part of the convoy.

At least some of them, including Dubois will be in Ottawa.

He previously tried to host a rally there: https://t.co/ikpAjWzLj1 — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019 Hi there, here’s what you missed from your article.

Most notably, Dan Dubois, Christopher Hayes, and Dan Unrau. Hayes was previously convicted of uttering threats against PM Trudeau. https://t.co/6kjnl5kUGj — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 19, 2019
This is the movement that prominent conservative politicians have gotten behind:

Yeah..... good luck with that.
