Canada arrests two men for promoting far right terrorism

Canadian federal police announced the arrests of two Ontario men for allegedly creating recruitment videos and statements in support of a far-right group banned as a terrorist organization. The pair, who were not identified by police, face a total of nine charges, including committing hate crimes, participating in a terrorist group’s activities, and instructing others to carry out terrorist activities. The arrests come after an 18-month investigation that included police searches in the Niagara and Toronto regions with help from Canada’s spy agency and anti-money laundering watchdog, the RCMP’s counterterrorism squad.
