“Re “Infamous white nationalist Paul Fromm wants to address city council on free speech” (Andrew Dreschel Aug 31): I particularly notice Councillor Sam Merulla’s statement that he opposes Fromm’s bid to address council because “he’s a known white nationalist.” I see also that Fromm “happily agrees” to being a white nationalist. And what on earth is wrong with that? We have Black Lives Matter advocating for blacks, and any number of advocacy groups acting on behalf of different races and nationalities. Indeed, Canada’s foreign policy decisions are often based on domestic political considerations, rather than what is best for Canada… why should the people who founded this country not be allowed to have and pursue their own interests? Why the double standard?”

Cheers,
