The Militia and the Mole

=> The Militia and the Mole (Josh Kaplan, ProPublica)

Just a quick entry to note a fascinating article I came across at ProPublica, about a leftist survival trainer who infiltrated the AP3 militia and provided a massive cache of documents on the groups, its members, and its supporters and collaborators.

Canada has a long history of private gun ownership, though nowhere near that of the states, with types/capacity/etc much more regulated. Militias were until recently a very minor thing here, though in the decade since Trump came to power, right-wing hate groups have become emboldened. The article was engrossing, but worrisome in terms of what it means up here, and what generally might come next.
