Mack Lamoureux of VICE Canada has just published a solid piece exposing the fact that the City of Hamilton has employed former neo-Nazi leader Marc Lemire for years in their IT department. Lamoureux credits the Anti-Racist Canada blog for their work on documenting Marc Lemire’s history in the neo-Nazi movement in developing his story.

I believe there are two further things worth noting in considering whether Marc Lemire should be an employee of the City of Hamilton and hold any sort of security clearance there:

1. The Federal Court found that Marc Lemire worked for years for Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel. In fact, Marc Lemire was part of the reason that Ernst Zundel was declared a national security threat to Canada and deported to his native Germany where he spent five years in prison for his anti-Jewish hate propaganda – these are quotes from the Federal Court decision:

[35]Furthermore, Wolfgang Droege and Marc Lemire, two successive presidents of the Heritage Front, spent a lot of time in Mr. Zündel’s house. Mr. Lemire, the last known president of the Heritage Front, was working for Mr. Zündel part-time, and then full-time for many years until Mr. Zündel left for the United States.
…
[39] If, as Mr. Zündel said, the Heritage Front, a group described as the most powerful racist gang to hit Canada since the real Nazis back in the Dirty Thirties, was not a good idea, then why would he hire the president of that organization, Mr. Lemire, as a part-time and then full-time employee in his own personal residence?

Further, Lemire was involved with Wolfgang Droege, his colleague in the Heritage Front who was a convicted terrorist who once plotted to overthrow the government of Dominica and as documented in the excellent book Bayou of Pigs by reporter Stewart Bell.

2. In 2002, I filed a successful federal human rights complaint against Alexan Kulbashian and James Scott Richardson who were running a neo-Nazi group called the “Canadian Ethnic Cleansing Team”. The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal decision upholding the complaint can be read here.

Richardson and Kulbashian had been the subject of a criminal investigation by the London Police Service Hate Crimes Unit as a result of their hate propaganda. During the human rights tribunal hearing against them, police officer Terry Wilson was subpoenaed along with the police records to give evidence showing that Richardson and Kulbashian were responsible for the content on the Canadian Ethnic Cleansing Team website.

The evidence given by Terry Wilson included a September 2001 online chat file that came off of James Scott Richardson’s computer that was seized. The chat was filed with the CHRT as evidence in the case and is public record. I used it (and other chat transcripts) to help establish that Richardson was responsible for the CECT’s website content. In the chat, a user named FdaJEWS calls out Richardson about Kulbashian.

For the reasons below, I believe that Marc Lemire was the person using the online name FdaJEWS [which I think a reasonable person would translate as “Fuck da JEWS”] in the chat:

1) FdaJ knows about s. 13(1) of the CHRA in Sept 2001 – Lemire was involved with and worked for Zundel – Zundel was the first s. 13 Internet complaint, and the CHRT hearings had just wrapped up in Feb 2001 (the decision had not yet been rendered so there was little public attention)

2) FdaJ says he “put a link to you guys on my website” and then gives the URL as: www.freedomsite.org/test/chapters/ontario.html – Lemire openly claims responsibility for owning and operating Freedomsite.

3) when WPCANADA asks FdaJ if he is “still with that broad”, FdaJ asks if Richardson means “melissa” – Lemire dated Melissa Guille until at least Dec of 2000 – M Guille was/is the leader of the Canadian Heritage Alliance – CHRT decision against her and her group here.
and – pic of Lemire and Guille all cuddly like in December 2000

4) Richardson asks FdaJ what the hf [Heritage Front] is up to – FdaJ responds that they were just denied permission to join the adopt-a-highway program – Lemire was found to be the last known leader of the neo-Nazi Heritage Front after deceased convicted terrorist Wolfgang Droege by Justice Blais of the Federal Court:

[35]Furthermore, Wolfgang Droege and Marc Lemire, two successive presidents of the Heritage Front, spent a lot of time in Mr. Zündel’s house. Mr. Lemire, the last known president of the Heritage Front, was working for Mr. Zündel part-time, and then full-time for many years until Mr. Zündel left for the United States.
…
[39] If, as Mr. Zündel said, the Heritage Front, a group described as the most powerful racist gang to hit Canada since the real Nazis back in the Dirty Thirties, was not a good idea, then why would he hire the president of that organization, Mr. Lemire, as a part-time and then full-time employee in his own personal residence?

If it is Lemire, I believe that the following things are noteworthy:

1) Lemire is engaged in a friendly inter-movement chat with James Richardson, a co-founder of the Canadian Ethnic Cleansing Team
2) Lemire admits that he had Kulbashian (someone he knew was running a group called the Canadian Ethnic Cleansing Team) as a contact on his ICQ chat list. During the chat he breaks and contacts Kulbashian directly via chat to test Richardson’s theory about Kulbashian being smart.
3) he acknowledges that Kulbashian “has helped me out in the past”
4) Lemire is using a handle that would reasonably be interpreted as short for “Fuck da JEWS”
5) Lemire acknowledges having linked openly on the Freedomsite to a group called the “Canadian Ethnic Cleansing Team” and promoted their group as well to others
6) Lemire tells the co-founder of this same group that he has never been against the idea of pooling resources with them
7) he promotes the idea of a 3rd party scamming some woman he’s dating for her $ and then leaving
8) when FdaJ refers to the Heritage Front, he refers to it as “us”
9) refers to his then girlfried as “my bitch”
10) he makes jokes about his former girlfriend Melissa Guille’s brother Andrew Guille (convicted for distribution of child pornography in 1999 and sentenced to 15 months imprisonment – calling him “the pervert”
