Jaggi Singh: Storm Alliance and Group

jaggi singh: Dozens of activists from Solidarity Across Borders lined the Roxam Road border crossing in Hemmingford hours before members of the Ultra-Nationalist group Storm Alliance arrived, according to CTV. Last week, the head of Storm Alliance called for a July 1st demonstration. But another group, ready to counter-protest, arrived first. Supported by fellow Nationalist group La Meute, Storm alliance says it aims to defend the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and ultimately protect Canadian values. We refuse to accept that a group of-- essentially racists can come here and intimidate refugees, said Jaggi Singh of Solidarity Across Borders. But their presence or overall M.O. -- is scrutinized by migrant activist groups, who dismiss their crusade as one that spreads intolerance. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
