Doug Ford and Jason Kenney have issued endorsements of the United We Roll Convoy, formerly known as the Yellow Vests convoy, a group endorsed by prominent Canadian neo-Nazis, and who’s founders and members have embraced far-right anti-immigrant beliefs and expressed support for hate groups.

Here is the endorsement from Doug Ford:

United we roll! Stop the carbon tax and let’s get those pipelines built! #UnitedWeRoll pic.twitter.com/sYXtMVv7rn — Doug Ford (@fordnation) February 15, 2019

Here is the endorsement from Jason Kenney:

Wishing #unitedweroll safe travels on their way to Ottawa.



Glad they've decided to keep the focus on our oil & gas workers. This issue is too important for distractions.



And great to see Canadians from coast to coast supporting our oil & gas workers. https://t.co/HELu323yZO — Jason Kenney (@jkenney) February 16, 2019

The convoy organizers have attempted to distance themselves from the Yellow Vests movement by rebranding as the United We Roll convoy. But as Yellow Vests Canada Exposed has outlined in detail, the United We Roll convoy shares many of the same founders as the Yellow Vests Convoy.

Glen Carritt organized the convoy and started the GoFundMe(please report) yet he is still a member of the main YVC Facebook group (the one with the bigoted and violent rhetoric). He also 'likes' YVC Red Deer.

Brenday Stettner is another organizer for the convoy. She posts Islamophobic content on Facebook. pic.twitter.com/kr3ZE5IoWA — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 7, 2019

Angie Reid is another convoy organizer. She is also clearly a yellow vest supporter. pic.twitter.com/ydSBPIz5j7 — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 7, 2019

One of the admins of the convoy group accepted an illegal campaign donation while running for the UCP. https://t.co/fQ0DJRI4WV — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 6, 2019

Carl is an admin in the convoy group, and is also a fan of SOO and WCAI. Both are anti-Muslim hate groups. pic.twitter.com/PJT4NVlKUY — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 5, 2019

The entire thread can be found here.

Anti-Hate Canada explains that Convoy organizer Glen Carritt says his group still “identifies with the yellow vests”. Another organizer Tyler Malenfant still calls the convoy the Yellow Vests Convoy on their main Facebook page.

Leading members of Canada’s far-right and neo-Nazi movement have endorsed the Yellow Vests, including two of Canada’s most prominent neo-Nazis Paul Fromm and Brian Ruhe.

The old dude is neo-Nazi Paul Fromm. The other guy is Timothy Gavin Reid, a member of the hate group Proud Boys. Here they are marching with the far-right yellow vests in Hamilton.

Anti-Hate Canada also explains that convoy organizers have expressed support for anti-Muslim hate groups such as Canadian Combat Coalition, Soldiers of Odin, and Worldwide Coalition Against Islam.

Another far-right anti-immigrant group The Clann, who’s members recently harassed an Edmonton mosque, attended a Yellow Vests rally in Camrose.

Yellow Vests Canada Exposed has uncovered evidence that far-right, anti-Muslim media outlet Free Bird Media is with the convoy. The founder of Free Bird Media is connected to neo-Nazi Paul From, Faith Goldy and James Sears, who was recently found guilty of promoting hate.

2. What’s interesting is the admission that Free Bird Media is on the convoy, in a seemingly official capacity. We know that UWR admin and organizer Carl Edward Fleury works with FBM sometimes, and we haven’t touched on that much yet. pic.twitter.com/Bk8PuQIsb8 — Yellow Vests Canada Exposed (@VestsCanada) February 17, 2019
