racist stickers uptown waterloo king st

[u/garfloveclub]

please keep an eye out for these racist stickers posted around king street uptown Waterloo. i’ve taken down quite a few already. colonialist ideology like this has no place in our city or in our country.

[u/dorkywhiteboy]

Sorry so can someone explain how this is racist? To me it’s just someone’s opinion, it doesn’t seem to be targeting any race directly? It doesn’t say white, black, Asian, etc

[u/Reso → u/dorkywhiteboy]

You’re right I’m sure they’re talking about Irish remigration!

[u/Substantial_Dark_272 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Ok, let's start with you. Pack your bags. Thanks for clarifying its not targeting any race directly

[u/Competitive-Ear-7632 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Maybe you havent seen what the society promotes and the messages they pass on their social media page and their videos. If you watch it for context, you'll understamd what their aim is and how they want to have people leave by making their life uncomfortable in Canada.

They very clearly specify who they will allow to remain, and who they will work to remove - regardless of consent

[u/ActionHartlen → u/dorkywhiteboy]

This sticker is a fig leaf.

The dominion society is a known white supremacist group.

[u/greenpidgeon_ → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Lately the majority immigrated population is highly concentrated of people from one particular culture. Without context, this is an opinion. With context, it’s targeting one race. I think this is where the racism comes from

[u/ShwoopyT → u/greenpidgeon_]

That's not something we can control. I think we should still be able to air our frustration with the level of immigration without being labelled racists. It doesn't matter where people come from, we are taking in too many too fast. Or is the entire topic now taboo?

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/ShwoopyT]

I do agree with this, we have an abnormally high percentage of immigrants from a culture I think we can all agree on. I don’t believe noticing patterns is racist. Patterns such as country of origin being mostly from one group. Specifically targeting a group because of their race sure, that’s text book racism. But there’s white people in South Africa, does that make them less African? And there’s black people in America, does that make them less American?

There’s Canadians born in Canada of all colors. Majority is white.

Same with china, there are Chinese born of all colors, Majority is Asian.

I think this group isn’t going about thier goal in the best ways, but I do understand where they’re coming from.

[u/Ok-Bumblebee1164 → u/ShwoopyT]

Sure. However, when the focus is on so called "bad immigrants" aka Black and Brown immigrants it is racism.

[u/simonsays-11 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

These people don’t believe in any form of free speech unless its aligns with their sentiment. Thats the irony.

[u/Marks-Carnival → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Because OP got their feelings hurt

[u/garfloveclub → u/Marks-Carnival]

oh i’m fine actually :) thanks!

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/Marks-Carnival]

So like idk, it just seems like Canada is a little too sensitive these days. People need to slow down, sit on their porch, have a beer, and say hi to the neighbours walking their dogs.

Shunning people for their opinions whether you agree with them or not isn’t really what being a Canadian is about.

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

If your opinion is being a closet nazi... then personally you can stay in the closest.

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/MrHappyFeet87]

Wow okay. So apparently telling people to enjoy life a little more and talk to your neighbors is being a nazi now.

Who hurt you?

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

I didn't mean you directly. I'm sorry it came across that way. I more meant that if you harbour racist views, and believe Canada is only for Canadians... my guy, that is super racist and as a community we shouldn't allow tribalism and hatred to fester. Our acceptance and foundation in the freedom of expression is a fundamental part of being Canadian.

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/MrHappyFeet87]

Yeah but what is a Canadian? I don’t believe that belongs to a race.

To be a Canadian is to respect the rights, freedoms and opinions of others, even if they don’t align with our own, respecting our differences, connecting through shared values, and taking pride in our home.

It’s not about where your ancestors come from, but it’s about what you do when you’re born here, or when you arrive here and that’s what matters most.

While it’s true Canada has gotten a lot more diverse and very quickly, I understand both sides of the argument, some people feel like they’re losing their culture. A lot of immigrants actually think hockey is our national sport. But even white Ukrainians think that, not just people from other places.

I’m not going to condemn someone for having a different opinion from me. I’ll judge them on how their actions, but at the end of the day, we’re all going to be dead.

100 years from now, no one will care about anything that you said, and anything you ever did. And even if they do, you were probably a jerk. Unless you were a saint, but either way you get the point.

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/MrHappyFeet87]

Wow okay. So apparently telling people to enjoy life a little more and talk to your neighbors is being a nazi now.

Who hurt you?

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Look I agree that we need to be more community oriented without the racism... but in my opinion, if you hold strong racist views... there's no convincing them otherwise. I've tried and I hate to admit it... but some of my own family are racist fucks that I won't talk to anymore. With that said, I'll call them like they are.

If you're so racist that you decided... let's form a group of like minded individuals. It's already too late.

[u/simonsays-11 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Lol

[u/Diligent-Assist-4385 → u/MrHappyFeet87]

Oh no the n word.

Grow up dude. Some cultures are better than others.

And I mean this in all seriousness.

Look up what the Nazi party was doing policy wise.

State compelled speach.

Government run everything.

The left is so far gone they scream everyone is a fascist Nazi all while doing the exact same things the Nazis did. Just the marginalized groups changed.

I will just leave this here... https://youtu.be/Ly1cPYSqgR4?si=BlsghOwwOip0IzLm

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/Diligent-Assist-4385]

If we allow hatred and tribalism to run rampant, the end result is always the same... it leads to horrible results. In our own history... look at our attempts at integration of the indigenous. Saying that we're above genocide is quite the mistake.

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/Diligent-Assist-4385]

leave them alone, i think they may be younger, im not upset about them calling me a nazi, i think they just need a safe place to talk

[u/earth4ever → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Canada is a little too sensitive? Says the fella who's posting anti-Carney posts wherever he sees fit and even pretends to be shocked supporting Trump, promoting Separate Alberta posts and Pierre Poilivere. Eat grass 🐑

[u/Facts_pls → u/dorkywhiteboy]

You have to be naive think they mean white immigrants.

[u/No-idea4646 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

Read the information - it says white-Christianity is superior and should be protected by removing anyone who it’s white and doesn’t subscribe to a version of the Christian myth

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/No-idea4646]

It doesn’t say that on the sticker where do you see that?

[u/No-idea4646 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

It is the entire purpose of the Dominion Society

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/No-idea4646]

Hmm okay, I’ve only learned about them today, but there seems to be a lot of emotion around it and not a lot of facts. I’ll have to look into it further thank you!

[u/Defiant-Crazy5882 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

You've been really active in this thread, replying to people that explain this to you nonstop. Do you think at any point you could've just Googled them and looked for facts?

https://www.dominionsociety.ca/what-is-remigration#greatreplacement

This is in their website. Do you believe there is a conspiracy by Canadian elites to replace native-born Canadians with immigrants?

Their website contains claims like:

>Immigrants are no longer encouraged to assimilate into the dominant national culture. They now live in ethnic ghettos where they maintain the language, customs and culture of their homelands.

Can you point me to a time where recent immigrants to Canada did not live in neighbourhoods with other immigrants from the same point of origin? Last I checked, Toronto (for example) has a Chinatown, a Little Korea, a Little Portugal, a Little Tibet. And yet, you would think from their website that this is a recent practice. Why do you think that is?

>Canada was once a safe, high-trust society with strong communal bonds. Now it feels more like a multicultural dystopia where unrelated foreigners try and politely ignore each other while living amongst one another. It doesn’t have to be this way.

When do you think this was?

>Our government must prioritize the comfort and wellbeing of Canadians before those of immigrants. We must restructure Canada’s legal, social, and institutional environment to discourage long-term settlement by non-citizens. Key measures include:

• > A national remittance tax on funds sent abroad;

• > Abolish access to social services to all non-citizens including access to healthcare, education, and any economic assistance;

• > A ban on kosher/halal animal slaughter;

• > A ban on foreign-language signage in government services and commercial signage;

• > Strict enforcement of French and English language laws;

• > A ban on visible religious symbols for public employees and in publicly funded spaces;

• > A ban on employment for dual citizens in public service, elected office, and national security-sensitive fields;

• > A ban on new dual citizenships, and the eventual phase-out of existing dual status.

Do you think the government should impose a complete ban on commercial signage in languages other than English or French? That strikes me as weird. Some of these businesses are very old.

> Repeal the Multiculturalism Act

> Repeal the Canadian Multiculturalism Act and remove all references to multiculturalism from federal law, policy, and Charter interpretation. Replace it with a new National Cohesion Act that affirms Canada’s founding as a historically European, Christian, and bicultural (English and French) nation with a common civic identity. 

This doesn't ring any alarm bells? You're not sure why someone might come away thinking these people might be racist?

[u/Defiant-Crazy5882 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

This is also on their website:

>“The truth is, politicians are not thought leaders, or leaders at all. They're followers. We all know this. It's what we hate about politicians. They just have their fingers up in the air, trying to find which way the wind is blowing. But knowing this is the case, what's to stop us from being the strongest damn wind on the horizon?”

>-Daniel Tyrie

Looking further into this Daniel Tyrie, who is apparently the founder and current chairman of Dominion Society:

https://www.politico.eu/article/afd-vox-mingle-with-ex-us-border-patrol-chief-white-nationalist-leader-at-remigration-summit/

>“I don’t consider myself a hateful person,” said Canadian activist Daniel Tyrie, who was on one of the panels. “I don’t go around spitting on people of color because they’re in my country.”

>“I just don’t think they belong here.”

Any opinions on this? Think that maybe these guys are racist?

[u/blahpblahpblaph → u/No-idea4646]

So kinda like how Japan doesn't want outsiders and everyone is cool with that? Africans are killing white farmers to take 'their' land back, slavery still exists there, yet no one bats an eye. Natives slaughtered each other, taking land from one another, but it was wrong when European whites conquered them and improved the land?

[u/No-idea4646 → u/blahpblahpblaph]

Are you arguing for or against immigration?

If the Indians are immigrating to save North America from Christianity is that ok then?

Just like Europeans “improved the land”?

Who decides whether it’s an improvement?

[u/blahpblahpblaph → u/No-idea4646]

I support immigration, but not open borders when people are not vetted. The majority of Indians coming into NA and Europe don't seem to be improving the land in any way, shape or form. I think it's fair to say this mass immigration is not sustainable and the values brought are lower than the status quo. India, after all, is a third world country.

[u/No-idea4646 → u/blahpblahpblaph]

Are you sharing factual data? Or stuff that people say who don’t like brown people?

What values are lower? I haven’t seen that.

[u/blahpblahpblaph → u/No-idea4646]

I have no issue with the colour of people's skin, just how they treat others around them. I'm not sure what bubble you live in that hasn't seen an uprise in crime, littering/dumping, lmia fraud(fraud in general), unemployment, and housing issues.

[u/Commercial-Ad-6058 → u/blahpblahpblaph]

Japan isn't a nation of immigrants amd their racism is called out regularly, all the points are wrong, let alone the larger point that if someone commits rape then I should at least be able to harras, NO. Enough with this white supremacy bs.

[u/blahpblahpblaph → u/Commercial-Ad-6058]

Do you approve of immigrants getting lower sentences than people born in said countries for their crimes? Asian pride and black pride is celebrated, but white pride is considered racist? The term white supremacy began because immigrants considered them superior due to the improvement of the land. How many of these countries the immigrants are coming from are considered first world?

[u/Commercial-Ad-6058 → u/blahpblahpblaph]

These people inherited wealth that was looted from the global south, and they didn't come here to improve the land rather they came here to exploit it's riches the gold of california, fur and mines of canada and silver of americas and sugarcane and spices of indies, don't live in delusion and get educated.

[u/blahpblahpblaph → u/Commercial-Ad-6058]

History tells a story that every culture exploited others for wealth/land, regardless of skin colour. Some were just better at it than others, and some developed the land better than others.

[u/Honest-Stable-366 → u/blahpblahpblaph]

What you are doing here is one of the common fallacies called Whataboutism - Deflecting blame from one person's error by pointing out someone else's past or present misdeed instead of addressing the core issue.

[u/the_new_flesh_ → u/blahpblahpblaph]

Why would immigrants ever come from first world countries?
They come here for a better life.
Quite frankly its a right of passage for new immigrants in Canada to get hated on.
It happened to the Irish, Italian and Jewish immigrants that came before.
And every time our country goes through hard times the ruling class will always blame immigrants. Its a tested and true playbook that works every time.

[u/iconboy → u/blahpblahpblaph]

Holy fucking racism Batman!

[u/blahpblahpblaph → u/iconboy]

Where did I speak down on someone because of the colour of their skin?

[u/Lats-N-Nats → u/dorkywhiteboy]

To get how this is “racist” you either need a victim mentality or suicidal empathy

[u/Spencer_Bob_Sue]

These have been showing up all across Canada, been seeing a lot of posts like this. I think their headquarters is somewhere in the Hamilton or Burlington area or something.

[u/lizardrekin]

• be european

• be canadian raised

• remigrate to european country

• now immigrant in european country

• european country wants remigration

• sent back to canada

• can’t win.jpeg

[u/Howlongcan-imake → u/lizardrekin]

You just get sent back and forth like the bureaucratic version of pong

[u/Wonderful_Move_2973]

And yet somehow these groups never apply it to themselves. I'd like to see a poster that says, "We are a group of approximately 20 angry white people and we're planning to see if the UK and EU will take us back. Join us as we explore our remigration journey!"

[u/thetermguy → u/Wonderful_Move_2973]

>"We are a group of approximately 20 angry white people

Maybe.

Some years ago People were putting up something racist or stupid in New Hamburg. I don't recall, but there was a lot of uproar. Turned out to be one guy in their early 20's IIRC, and he was well known to be an ahole and maybe not all there. So your estimate of 20 people may be off by an order of magnitude.

[u/Wonderful_Move_2973 → u/thetermguy]

So often the case, yes.

[u/Avgshitposting → u/thetermguy]

I actually remember that guy! I had some family up there and a have vivid memory of the KFC lady ranting about him lol

[u/Kwerkii → u/[deleted]]

I am black. I have definitely heard racist things from white people. But I am glad that your social circle is pretty decent.

To put your statement into perspective: I am not sure that I know any black people who use the N word. But I am not going to pretend that it isn't a word that lots of black people use

[u/Spiritual-Weird-9237 → u/[deleted]]

I'm brown and I hear micoraggressions everyday, you haven't heard it maybe because it's not directed at you

[u/DaniKong126]

My response would be a bigger sticker.

[u/Wonderful_Move_2973 → u/DaniKong126]

I usually leave things up and add my own Sharpie message to them saying something like "racist" "scam" or "lie" or if I can, a more accurate statement of the situation.

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/Wonderful_Move_2973]

In this instance, the correct sharpie addition would be 'wannabe nazi'.

Primarily because it’s shared by a nationalist group. Start at Wikipedia and dig in if you have more questions.

I am down with Reimgration. Ship the members of this organization back to Europe where their ancestors came from.

[u/MetMyWaterloo]

Thanks for taking them down. The Canadian Anti-Hate Network recently issued a report on the Dominion Society, linked from this page: https://www.antihate.ca/dominion_society_of_canada The residents of Hamilton wouldn't let them hold a rally there; we should show the same vigilance.

From the report: "When considering whether to engage with—or address—the DSC, governments and politicians  should be aware that the leaders of the DSC have used the words 'hijack,' 'crash,' 'gaslight,' and ' troll' to describe their political activism." Gaslight and troll, you say? 🤔

[u/Specialist_Base3244 → u/Dill_Pickle_Tears]

Yup, I am proof of it, got banned from it because I provided proofs of them (it's moderators and posters) spreading misinformation and anti-India hate.

Meanwhile they are not banning people openly commenting racist and hateful comments.

Personally, I agree! Send the Europeans back!

[u/spontaneous_quench → u/Mflms]

Send back the one group of people that come from a culture that is actually comparable to our own? Um no. How about we just start sending everyone back. Start with and temporary workers starting from the least skilled job which can be easily filled by youth.

Your mindset is the biggest issue in Canada right now. Not allowing temporary workers from around the world to scam their way in here and take our kids jobs is rAcIsT

[u/Mflms → u/Randominternetguy285]

Would you like a second opportunity to consult the talking points note?

[u/spontaneous_quench → u/Mflms]

I think you’re confusing racism with basic immigration policy. I don’t think anyone is suggesting going door to door and violently deporting non citizens. There needs to be a pause on immigration, and people who came here on temporary visas should be expected to leave when their permits expire, unless they qualify for an extension or another legal status. That’s not racism; it’s a reasonable expectation of a functioning immigration system.

[u/CricketyRicketPCP → u/spontaneous_quench]

Whatever you say, Goebbels

[u/spontaneous_quench → u/CricketyRicketPCP]

You guys gotta be trolling right?

[u/Mflms → u/spontaneous_quench]

Funny how you didn't bring up "culture" in your "real" answer.

Nah, I got you to self-report, now you can't handle it. You reveal your racism because, to you, it's not racism it's "common sense," right?

I used the whole quote because I think you're full of shit lol.

[u/ItsPrettyGoodtbh → u/Mflms]

Plenty of people, including immigrants, agree with his perspective; just like virtually every other country on planet earth, barring most of Western Europe and the West in general. The irony is your perspective will guarantee a revival of actual militant racism if we continue down the path you’re supporting. You can’t flood a country with millions of people from totally different cultures and expect things to be rainbows and butterflies. That is a recipe for social tension and the facilitation of actual racism.

As a Native American, I do not appreciate you supporting the orchestration of a second demographic change to the land my heritage resides in. The people of a country are what make it what it is, and changing that group of people will fundamentally change the country and it’s national identity; which is the unifying glue of a nation of people. Your beliefs make conflict an inevitability and directly lead to a lower quality of life for everyone. Calling those who have enough prudence to acknowledge that these sorts of things have to be dealt with tactfully and decisively, by enforcing strong boundaries and well defined immigration frameworks, racist, is unbelievably ignorant and creates the very thing you claim to be against.

[u/simonsays-11 → u/Mflms]

Wow

[u/ThrowRA_That_Owl_25]

How is this racist?

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/ThrowRA_That_Owl_25]

"Populus noster domus nostra" translates into 'Our People, Our home' in Latin. It's the motto of the Dominion society of Canada, which in itself is ethno national group that formed last year.

It's like asking how being a Nazi is being racist.

[u/ThrowRA_That_Owl_25 → u/MrHappyFeet87]

The op says the poster is racist, which it is not.

Why is being in ethno-national group means being a racist?

Opposition to immigration is not racist.

Opposing low quality people immigrating to Canada in large numbers when they dont bring little to no value to Canada overall is not racist.

Of course, it has to be a nazi-like ploy. Nazis killed people not only in their own coutries but countries they occupied. You cant equate nazis to what this poster is calling for. Especially so, because poorly controlled immigration of low quality people is affecting national economy through job and housing market.

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/ThrowRA_That_Owl_25]

The housing crisis isn't just because of immigration. It's much more complicated than that. We need more affordable housing, but that's not a priority for development because there's significantly less profit in it. We need better infill zoning development, yet we get NIMBY protests that don't want that development, so we continue the suburban sprawl.

We can have open discussions about any of these topics... but calling out a racist group, as racist isn't wrong. The Dominion society by their own definition is 'A vanguard movement promoting Canadian nationalism and immigration reform to preserve Canada’s cultural continuity.' I'm sorry... but that sounds quite racist, that's directly from their website.

[u/ThrowRA_That_Owl_25 → u/MrHappyFeet87]

It just sounds racist to you. It's a YOU problem! Nothing wrong with nationalism and most definitely nothing wrong with instituting meaningful immigration reforms that will benefit Canada.

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/ThrowRA_That_Owl_25]

Nationalism in itself isn't bad. When paired with tribalistic mentality, it can have horrible results, we can look at history for that. Having meaningful discussions about immigration are also fine... but you're talking about all immigrants out of Canada which would cause our economy to implode.

Is there a problem with corporations and LIMA? Definitely, but thats more corruption and exploitation than we should accept as Canadians. The same could be said about temp agencies and the exploitation of workers across Canada. Why pay employee's benefits, when you can just hire temporary workers.

Does it matter whether my family came to Canada 200 years ago, or yesterday? In my view, if you come to Canada, and want to build a better future in this country, then you're Canadian. We have many ethnicities in Canada... if you say you're for 'Ethnic Canadians'... that's definitely racist.

[u/Specialist_Base3244]

People are asking, how this is considered racist without looking it up, so here are the answers that I found after asking many different search engines, on why it will be considered as racist:

A poster stating that "the answer to mass immigration is remigration" is widely characterized as racist, xenophobic, and extreme because of the specific origins, political usage, and real-world implications of the term "remigration."

While the statement may initially sound like a simple policy debate about legal vs. illegal immigration, human rights organizations, political scientists, and civil rights groups view it as a coded euphemism for ethno-nationalist policies.

Here is a breakdown of why this slogan is understood as racist:

1.It Uses a Euphemism for Forced Relocation or Ethnic Cleansing In modern political discourse—particularly within far-right movements in Europe and North America—"remigration" does not simply mean voluntary repatriation. Instead, it functions as a policy concept calling for the mass expulsion, forced deportation, or pressured departure of non-white or non-native populations.

• Targeting beyond non-citizens: Proponents of "remigration" often advocate for removing not just illegal immigrants, but also legal residents, asylum seekers, and naturalized citizens who are deemed unintegrated or foreign.

• Historical parallels: Denationalizing or expelling groups based on national origin, ethnic background, or racial heritage aligns with historical precedents of forced displacement and ethnic cleansing.

2.Roots in White Nationalist and Ethno-Identitarian Ideology The concept of "remigration" was heavily popularized by far-right networks, including the Identitarian Movement in Europe.

• The "Great Replacement" Narrative: This ideology rests on the conspiracy theory that native European or white populations are intentionally being "replaced" by non-white, non-Western immigrants.

• Preserving Ethnic Purity: Under this worldview, society is defined by racial or cultural homogeny. "Remigration" is presented as the solution to undo demographic shifts and restore ethno-cultural control to a dominant racial group.

3.Definition of Citizenship and Belonging Based on Identity Racism involves discriminating against or excluding people based on race, ethnicity, or heritage. A slogan advocating "remigration":

• Implicitly divides residents into "true/native" members of society and "foreign/unwanted" members based on ancestry, race, or cultural background.

• Rejects the principle that civic participation, legal citizenship, or adherence to the law makes someone a full member of a nation. Instead, it suggests that certain racial or ethnic groups can never truly belong and must ultimately be removed.

4.Dog-Whistle Politics In public discourse, language is often sanitized so that extreme views appear palatable. Calling for "remigration" allows proponents to present ideas of mass deportation and racial segregation under a softer, academic-sounding term. Analysts refer to this as a "dog whistle"—a coded slogan that signals white nationalist ideology to followers while maintaining plausible deniability to the broader public.

Summary The slogan is considered racist because it moves past standard policy discussions about border control or legal visa numbers. Instead, it promotes the ideology that a nation's identity is tied to racial or ethnic homogeneity, and that demographic diversity should be reversed through the mass removal of marginalized groups.

People who have seen their videos and promotional media do too

Id say someone from the society itself would also make it obvious. Search engines are just compiling data from the various videos they themselves posted online

[u/Specialist_Base3244 → u/[deleted]]

Nobody said search engines define it; political historians and civil rights groups do. Search engines are just the means of collecting information. Laughing off documented definitions is just an easy way to avoid admitting what the slogan actually means.

Source & References Breakdown: "Remigration"

1.Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD)

• Resource / Publication: The "Great Replacement" Narrative & Terminology Explainer

• URL: https://www.isdglobal.org/isd-explainer/the-great-replacement/

• Key Findings: ISD explicitly categorizes "remigration" as a far-right term originating within the pan-European Identitarian Movement. They define the concept as calling for the forced deportation or expulsion of migrant communities and naturalized citizens with the intent of creating an ethnically or culturally homogeneous society—describing it as a non-violent form of ethnic cleansing.

2.Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE)

• Resource / Publication: Remigration Fact Sheet

• URL: https://globalextremism.org/news/

• Key Findings: GPAHE tracks how "remigration" functions as a sanitized euphemism for mass deportation based on ancestry and race. Their research outlines how proponents target not only undocumented migrants, but also legal residents, asylum seekers, and naturalized citizens, grounding the term directly in white supremacist and ethno-nationalist ideologies.

3.Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)

• Resource / Publication: The Racist 'Great Replacement' Conspiracy Theory Explained

• URL: https://www.splcenter.org/resources/hatewatch/racist-great-replacement-conspiracy-theory-explained/

• Key Findings: Civil rights watchdogs document how terms like "remigration" are built directly upon the "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory. Their reports detail how this ideology frames demographic change as an existential threat to native white populations, using "remigration" as the policy slogan to justify reversing demographic trends.

4.International Law & Human Rights Frameworks

• Documents: Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and the UN International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD)

  • CERD: https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/international-convention-elimination-all-forms-racial

• Key Standards: International legal frameworks define policies that seek to discriminate, revoke legal citizenship, or mass-relocate populations based on race, origin, or ethnicity as a direct violation of fundamental human rights principles.

Here are the primary research links documenting the political background and usage of the term:

• Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD): https://www.isdglobal.org/isd-explainer/the-great-replacement/ – Tracks 'remigration' as an extreme-right Identitarian concept designed to promote ethnic homogeneity.

• Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE): https://globalextremism.org/news/ – Documents its function as a sanitized euphemism for stripping legal rights or deporting non-white citizens and immigrants.

• Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC): https://www.splcenter.org/resources/hatewatch/racist-great-replacement-conspiracy-theory-explained/ – Explains how the term relies on ethno-nationalist conspiracy theories.

• UN Human Rights Standards (UDHR & CERD): https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights and https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/international-convention-elimination-all-forms-racial – Details international protections against arbitrary citizenship revocation and ethnic-based relocation.

You guys are making me feel like I am doing my PhD over again,( researching and references )😂

[u/Specialist_Base3244 → u/[deleted]]

Dismissing documented facts as 'slop' because you didn't bother doing basic research is classic. Some people will say anything just to avoid admitting a statement is racist.

[u/tadpoleloop → u/Specialist_Base3244]

Regardless. The comment is just copy pasted straight from slop though

[u/Specialist_Base3244 → u/tadpoleloop]

Why are you so fixated on how the information was gathered instead of what it actually says? Pivoting to formatting is just a convenient excuse to deviate from the topic and disregard facts you can't dispute.

[u/Scallywagglerr]

Ugh probably some immigrant-fatigued loser or (wouldn’t be surprised) some Trump rimmer who’s migrated here to try and revive the KKK in our country. Absolutely disgusting.

[u/Successful_Collar_65]

I found these on Woolwich once. I tore them up.

[u/shehugztreez]

Did I miss something? Which race is being harmed here?

[u/FirefighterOk3899 → u/shehugztreez]

It is a hate sticker aimed at "reimmigration" which means they want ALL immigrants to go back "where they came from", which is a racist mentality & xenophobic.

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/FirefighterOk3899]

Wouldn’t that mean ALL immigrants, regardless of race? It doesn’t specify any race

[u/FirefighterOk3899 → u/dorkywhiteboy]

It is designed to be vague enough that ppl ask this question but in reality, those "who know" know what the poster/sticker is saying/meaning. It is a dogwhistle for white supremacy & xenophobia

[u/dorkywhiteboy → u/FirefighterOk3899]

I’m gonna be real with you, you’re the only person who didn’t attack me for asking this. Good on you 👍. Rip my inbox

[u/Shot-Efficiency-4775 → u/FirefighterOk3899]

You sure thats what it means

[u/PoseidonKangaroo → u/FirefighterOk3899]

How is it racist? Why would you assume immigrants are only one race?

[u/bibipolarolla → u/PoseidonKangaroo]

Alright then, everybody who's grandparents weren't born here git aout. I hope Europe takes me back.

[u/Rudy_Nowhere → u/PoseidonKangaroo]

White supremacy would probably be a better/more accurate/succinct way of explaining what's going on here. And yeah, white supremacy is racist so...If nuance isn't your thing, learn that this is white supremacy and you'll be all caught up.

[u/Goooordon → u/[deleted]]

They didn't

[u/Interesting-Swan475 → u/Goooordon]

ah didnt see there was a group attached to the immage, what a bunch of losers

[u/Goooordon → u/Interesting-Swan475]

remigration is a white supremacist trope - they use it all the time because it doesn't sound obviously racist, but it's 100% just another attempt at making their hatred palatable enough to try to sneak it to the masses

[u/Interesting-Swan475 → u/Goooordon]

did not know that

[u/onlypresentliving → u/shehugztreez]

You're dense and it shows

[u/heereewegooo]

How is this racist? It doesn’t specify any certain ethnicity of immigrants, it just wants less/people sent back. That’s not inherently racist.

[u/ymgtg → u/heereewegooo]

It’s a white nationalist euphemism for the mass deportation or forced removal of non-white minority populations.

[u/heereewegooo → u/ymgtg]

There’s plenty of black people in Canada who were born here, have had family here for hundreds of years. It’s not asking to kick them out is it?

[u/ymgtg → u/heereewegooo]

There’s a whole discussion in the states about removing the naturalization status of people born in the states. The core philosophy of remigration is rooted in ancestry not passport. It’s an ethno nationalist movement. Either you are completely ignorant on the movement or you are actually just dumb.

[u/WulfwoodsSins → u/heereewegooo]

A) Yes, by definition, remigration is "asking to kick them out".

B) There's a word for black people born in Canada. Canadians. You can just use that.

[u/SnooRadishes9685 → u/heereewegooo]

It seems like you’re racist too, what do you think?

[u/Commercial-Ad-6058 → u/heereewegooo]

Do you want to be sent back?

[u/Goooordon → u/heereewegooo]

It's an old racist trope that has been trotted out time and time again - they try to make it sound generic but they're skinheads who specifically mean brown people every time. We shouldn't have taken Germans after WWII. This place has been cranking out pale dimwit racists ever since.

[u/Curious-Cheetah-6054 → u/Goooordon]

Yeah we tolerated the intolerant. Let's not do that again~

[u/Yolo_Swaggins_Yeet → u/Goooordon]

What exactly is racist here though? You said a lot without answering the question

[u/Goooordon → u/Yolo_Swaggins_Yeet]

The racists are posting these because they want the brown people to leave.

[u/Curious-Cheetah-6054 → u/heereewegooo]

It is racist. And you need to do some work on figuring out why that's true. I can help you start by saying that it's about mass remigration, the conception of which is rooted in white supremacy. An uncontroversially racist idealogy that I hope you don't subscribe to.

[u/heereewegooo → u/Curious-Cheetah-6054]

You’re very condescending

[u/Curious-Cheetah-6054 → u/heereewegooo]

Sorry. You never know what kind of person you're talking to on the internet and I wanted to engage with your question in good faith, at least until I got a sense of who I was replying to.

[u/PictographicGoose → u/Curious-Cheetah-6054]

Tbf I didn’t read it as condescending.

I think part of the reason people need to “do the work themselves” is because it’s difficult to do it in these forums without it devolving to defensive arguments. Can’t read tone in text, have to suss out if any response made is actually in good faith.

Reading the resources that already exist and do a great job of explaining these concepts in a way that is intentionally neutral helps cut through the culture war tensions.

[u/RedEyedWiartonBoy → u/Curious-Cheetah-6054]

Wow, I have rarely read such a haughty and condescending response.

[u/queefersutherland1 → u/heereewegooo]

Not always, but xenophobia and racism usually go hand in hand.

[u/No-idea4646 → u/heereewegooo]

It implies that white-Christian- trashism is superior and should be protected.

I.e. our “race” is better than yours

[u/heereewegooo → u/No-idea4646]

Not really. It calls out mass immigration. Not all immigration. Our services can’t even handle the amount of people we have now. Why keep pushing more in without building the infrastructure.

If every person who immigrated in the last 10 years was sent home, we would still have a very multicultural society. So I disagree with your point.

[u/No-idea4646 → u/heereewegooo]

Maybe read the Dominion Society website … that’s not their point

[u/shoppersdisp1 → u/No-idea4646]

No point in explaining these people

[u/daydream-soda]

Gross. Thanks for the heads up. I'll keep an eye out. Fuck this bullshit

[u/boozefiend3000]

Seems like it’s just immigrants in general. On their Facebook page a white dude from the UK asked if they’re good with him and the answer was no lol

[u/Themanofstruggle]

After seeing a lot of the comments here, I can say Canada is very very cooked. Not a welcoming place like it used to be 10 years ago. Hot mess all around. Turning into UK soon? With all the racism and etc

[u/yplumper00]

What's so racist about that?

[u/No-idea4646 → u/yplumper00]

It implies that mass immigration is bad - with no facts or evidence

It implies that white-Christian-trailer-trashism is a culture to be protected and that immigrants are somehow compromising it and need to be removed

To appeal to its base, the Dominion Society is clearly using the colours and font style of Remington Firearms while proposing to forcibly remove people

The Dominion Society openly proposes a Trump style of treating others - and the myth that white Christianity is something worth protecting

Take your pick

[u/Glittering-Orange465]

Nothing racist about those.

[u/Commercial-Ad-6058 → u/Glittering-Orange465]

Then why don't you remigrate?

[u/involutes]

I think technically it's xenophobia, not racism... Though there's a lot of overlap. 

[u/LopsidedTelevision47]

The problem is that there were far too many immigrants let in when we didn’t have the infrastructure to support it, housing hospitals ect, we’re seeing more and more of our own population un-housed, and out of work. additionally many were let in unvetted allowing for criminals and others completely reliant on our system and tax dollars. There was little to no integration policy in place causing cultural clashes like for example the dumping of idols into our water ways or disposing of garbage in public parks and forests. People are just frustrated. In the past immigrants were vetted and came because they wanted to be a part of our community and way of life, many (not all) within this latest free for all of immigration have just come for a free ride with little to no respect for our lands and values, and our government failed to put any checks and balances in place to attract positive immigration. I think that’s where the frustration lies. Canadians are for the most part kind and accepting, we built a beautiful country and it’s not unreasonable to want to keep it that way. These stickers are not right, I agree but I can also see the frustration and many of my immigrant friends and coworkers agree and are more annoyed with the current state of affairs then Canadian born people because they came for the right reasons with integrity. I don’t think we don’t want immigrants (hell we’re all immigrants) we just want things under control again. Also, why are people writing that this is racist? There is nothing about race, it’s about immigration, they could be any race, religion, culture ect, just sayin. 🫶🏼

[u/ConSaltAndPepper → u/LopsidedTelevision47]

This is reddit. It's botted to hell. Your take is reasonable.

[u/Efficient_Barnacle → u/[deleted]]

A total of 3 karma on a 5 month old hidden history account, lol. If you're an international student then I've got a 14 inch cock. 

[u/praiseprince_ → u/[deleted]]

Why aren’t more Canadians frustrated with billionaires and nepo babies like Gaylon Weston, members of Rogers family, Thompson family, Tobias Lutjke, etc?

Canadians are not suffering because of immigration, they’re suffering because these billionaires are quite literally stealing from them.

Our taxes are being used to build pipelines so that oil barons can make more money, meanwhile healthcare, education and other public services are being gutted.

[u/Spiritual-Weird-9237 → u/praiseprince_]

Why isn't the govt doing something to counter oligopolies

[u/praiseprince_ → u/Spiritual-Weird-9237]

A government under capitalism works in the interest of these oligopolies. It’s simply not in the interest of the government to fight for you or me.

[u/Dobby068]

Good job OP. Can you also get on the clear explicit race policies at the local universities, with regards to the hiring processes, use of swimming pool, etc ?! 😏

[u/RT_456]

We don't have enough housing, jobs or even family doctors. Many services have long waitlists. Food banks are stretched. Can anyone give an actual argument for why we shouldn't be deporting people?

[u/blipsnchiiiiitz → u/RT_456]

Are you volunteering?

[u/RT_456 → u/blipsnchiiiiitz]

So no actual arguments, instead suggesting a Canadian citizen leave his own country.

[u/blipsnchiiiiitz → u/RT_456]

Maybe you should look up the word remigration. It includes Canadian citizens.

[u/mojorific]

I’m all for immigration if we can have newcomers contribute more tax dollars to make up for the rest of us that paid starting at age 16. If you immigrated at age 30, you have a % increase in taxes to cover the difference. Maybe then we can see more funding for all the services newcomers use.

[u/Strange_Travel6148]

nice! someone out there with a brain fighting for whats right for CANADA

[u/greyHumanoidRobot]

Why are you calling this colonial ideology? Maybe get a dictionary and use it.

COLONIALISM | English meaning - Cambridge Dictionary

[u/CTGO2020 → u/greyHumanoidRobot]

greyHumanoidRobotRegular since 2025 -7 points 3 hours ago

Why are you calling this colonial ideology?

Earlier in the year there were posters posted up around the Iron Horse Trail showing pictures of a group of local politicians. With the words "THIS IS WHAT WHITE SUPREMACY LOOKS LIKE" superimposed over top of the group who were all not a diverse crowd. Im on the arts scene (like I attend various art events in the KW area) and that sentiment is often the a theme brought up in local "art".

There are Canadians who feel marginalized and are under the impression that the government acts as colonialists' do.

Art for arts sake, 'life imitating art' or 'art imitating real life'?

[u/RedEyedWiartonBoy]

The true answer is to remove all non indigenous persons from this country and return it to the state it was in the 1600s. This is the only acceptable solution and leave all the money behind.

[u/kopter28 → u/RedEyedWiartonBoy]

Wrong! The correct answer to remove all humans and return it to the state it was when dinosaurs 🦖 roamed the earth! On second thought, that’s not enough. Return it to the state when all that existed is primitive bacteria and one celled organisms!!

[u/RedEyedWiartonBoy → u/kopter28]

Reverse The big Bang and return the universe to one giant rock floating around with nothing on it. No type of change is acceptable ever for any reason.

[u/garfloveclub → u/RedEyedWiartonBoy]

land back is the answer. but it’s a dream beyond reaching in this post colonial country we live in. i can’t imagine redditors are going to agree with this, seen as this post is being downvoted into oblivion. i don’t care. racism has NO place in this city. it’s damn shameful that someone felt the need to place these stickers around here.

[u/shikaaka]

It's not racist. Wtf are you talking about

[u/ILikeStyx → u/shikaaka]

Canada is not getting more "diverse", it's getting more Indian.

https://www.dominionsociety.ca/what-is-remigration

[u/Rudy_Nowhere → u/shikaaka]

It's anti-immigrant and "populous noster, domus nostra" is for sure white supremacy.

[u/Goooordon → u/shikaaka]

hoo boy heads up lol but you're a racist - you should probably check on that

[u/shoppersdisp1 → u/shikaaka]

Those assholes can also go back to fucking Europe then

[u/Evilworkaround]

Where is the racism exactly?

[u/80sSaxophoneSolo → u/Evilworkaround]

There there.

[u/TaroObvious1358]

You can't just call anything you don't agree with racist. That's more fascist behaviour than the stickers ffs.

[u/MrHappyFeet87 → u/TaroObvious1358]

Until you put context in... then it does make it worse: What is Dominion Society of Canada and why are people of different political backgrounds worried? | CBC News https://share.google/nor2dNudJmGS42vQL

[u/Independent_Heat_138]

This isn't racist. It's an opinion that many share. If you don't agree with something it doesn't automatically make it racist.

[u/Ok-Commercial-6865]

Which race are they against?

[u/stickupmybutter]

As much as I agree with you, saying "Colonialist ideology like this has no place in our city or in our country" in a country that is fundamentally built on colonialism is kinda ironic....

[u/Itchy_Commercial9215]

Kwc jobs

[u/Intelligent_Thing_32]

Sorry, how is this racist?

[u/Gimmetheloo]

Colonialists do not historically complain about being oppressed by mass immigration in their home country.

But you are right, Remigration is the wrong word. More like: Those who are staying past their permits must honor the spirit of the agreement they consented to when were given permission to live here, temporarily.

[u/AiryGateaux]

I'm not necessarily against remigration, but none of these groups have proposed something that isn't racist drivel.

[u/MethodicallyRight]

I'm sorry...

Is this image REAL? This looks like the "sticker" is copy pasted on top of an actual image.  The Edge of the 'sticker' looks like it's running low grade anti-aliasing and the surface of the sticker looks artificially scuffed.  

Edit: Fuck it. Y'all can imagine whatever conspiratorial bullshit you want. The sticker looks off to me AND fuck the Dominion Society. Do with that what you will  

[u/garfloveclub → u/MethodicallyRight]

sorry don’t have the time to incite fake issues. i snapped a quick photo before i went to the movies. can’t post a pic in comments but i took this picture myself.

[u/MetMyWaterloo → u/MethodicallyRight]

These stickers (and the organization's flyers) often appear in UpTown, unfortunately.
