Someone Sent Us a Video. Then Things Got Weird

The article discusses a video showing a political event organized by the OneBC party in Penticton, featuring MLA Dallas Brodie engaging with a young man who promotes the white supremacist group Second Sons Canada. The video reveals Brodie's initial lack of awareness regarding Second Sons' racist and antisemitic ideologies, despite prior reports linking the group to such views. OneBC's communications director explains that Brodie was only familiar with Jeremy MacKenzie, the group's founder, through his anti-lockdown advocacy during the pandemic. The article highlights growing tensions within British Columbia's right-wing political landscape, with figures like Findlay pushing the Conservative Party further to the right. The leak of the video underscores concerns about the influence of extremist groups and the potential impact on political discourse.
