The Mayor wrote venues warning them against holding the conference. The Hamilton Police said the Dominion Society wasn&#8217;t welcome because their message was &#8220;divisive.&#8221;They even urged people to call a snitch line if they knew where the conference was being held, after two venues cancelled under pressure. So, Hamilton became Cuba North without the palm trees.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>To add insult to injury much of the agitation against the conference\u00a0 originated with the Anti-Racism Resource Centre and the Hamilton Centre for Civic Inclusion. The latter is closely tied to the former.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hamilton Anti-Racism Resource Centre has lucked into big dollops of taxpayers&#8217; money to fund its advocacy. In 2023, it received $286,000; in 202, $75,000 and in 2025 and guaranteed\u00a0until 2029, $190,000 a year. These were the people agitating to have the Dominion Society denied a venue. So, taxpayers were paying to have agitators work to deny them the right to hear a controversial immigration reform group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The federal thought police also got into the act. Austrian activist Martin Sellner, founder of the Identitarian Movement in Austria and a leading proponent of remigration was denied a visa. The League for Human Rights of B&#8217;nai Brith, ever eager to restrict what Canadians can say or hear, had agitated for Sellner&#8217;s exclusion. The <strong><u>Jerusalem Post<\/u><\/strong> (August 30, 2026) reported:\u00a0 &#8221; Richard Robertson, B\u2019nai Brith Canada\u2019s Director of Research and Advocacy, said, &#8216;Extremists such as Sellner have no business coming to Canada to attack our multicultural society and incite hate and intolerance.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Meanwhile English firebrand Charlie Downes, spokeman for Restore Britain, was held up for three hours crossing into Canada from the United States. A drug sniffing dog was set loose on the car in which he was travelling. The<strong><u> Western Standard<\/u><\/strong> (August 30, 2026) reported: &#8221; He said that Canadian border officers asked about his group\u2019s funding, its deportation policy, and alleged \u201clinks to neo-Nazism.&#8221; Why should a British group&#8217;s funding be of any interest to Canadian border authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/dominion-society-charlie-downes.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Charlie Downes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dominion Society Speakers Harassed by Canada Border Services &amp; Anti-Free Speech Agitators Funded by Taxpayers&#8217; Money The City of Hamilton through its failed Mayor Andrea Horwath announced it wouldn&#8217;t rent facilities to the Dominion Society to hold its DOMCON immigration &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/?p=11376\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1294,4089,6387,6385,6383,6382,6388,6386,111],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11376"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11376"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11376\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11381,"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11376\/revisions\/11381"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11376"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11376"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cafe.nfshost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11376"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
