What do we know about Patrik Mathews? We actually know quite a lot about him. The question that remains is what we, as Canadians and people of good conscience, going to do about Patrik Mathews and the anti-democratic terrorist movement of which he is part?

Patrik Mathews: A Nazi in the Canadian Army

Let’s start with what we know about Patrik Mathews. For several years, Mathews has been a reservist with the Canadian army, holding the rank of corporal, and specializing as a combat engineer. For those years and possibly longer, Mathews has also been an active member of an international Nazi terrorist organization, The Base.

Mathews’ arrest turned out to be a debacle for the RCMP. On 10 August 2019, Mathews was apprehended in a raid involving dozens of heavily armed officers at his home in the city of Beausejour, about an hour east of Winnipeg, Manitoba. He was, however, released shortly after the raid.

This was the opportunity Mathews had to flee the country. Despite the RCMP investigation into what role he played in the international armed terrorist group, Mathews was allowed to disappear from police surveillance. On 3 September last year, his truck was found abandoned by the Manitoba-Minnesota border. His trail went cold for nearly four months, until his arrest 16 January 2020 in Delaware.

Neo-Nazi Plans for an Armed Uprising

Mathews’ arrest was part of several sweeps by the FBI, who captured Base terrorist organizers not only in Delaware, but also Maryland, Georgia, and Wisconsin. Mathews was part of a Base plot involving several planned acts of violence, including the murder of a married couple who were progressive activists, and a terrorist action at an upcoming rally for gun rights in Virginia.

The charges against Mathews and his fellow terrorists state that he was one of the central plotters of The Base’s planned armed attack on the Virginia legislature buildings for the 20 January rally. In fact, while this post is published, the rally will begin, and violent acts of mass terrorism may possibly still occur.

The Base organizers around the United States were planning to make Virginia’s Lobby Day gun rights rally the starting battle of what contemporary white supremacists call “The Boogaloo.” The term is an ironic reference to 1980’s cult cinema classic Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo, but here names what American terror groups hope will be a second civil war in the country.

The purpose of The Base is to be the leading edge of shock troops who will use nationwide acts of massacre to cleanse North America of Muslims and Jews, and permanently subjugate black Americans in a new system of chattel slavery.

Canadian army reservist Patrik Mathews is one of the men who has trained these wannabe stormtroopers in the use of firearms and the manufacture of explosives. While our own military did drop him from the ranks on confirming his central role in recruiting for the armed terror group, none of this action was fast enough to prevent his escape to join the rest of the armed extremist Base personnel in the United States.

The Success of White Supremacists in the Military and Police

Mathews, like many other Nazi terror groups in North America, used the prestige of his role in the Canadian Armed Forces to recruit many others to their mission of ethnic cleansing and mass murder, largely via online forums. The United States armed forces is contaminated throughout its lower ranks with organizers, trainers, and recruiters for white supremacist terror groups.

The Military Times reports that more than one in every five people serving in the USA’s armed forces have seen open instances of white supremacist organizing, recruitment, and support. While military leadership is cracking down on terrorist infiltration in its ranks, its few successes are sorely inadequate to deal with the problem.

The frightening truth is that military and police agencies in both Canada and the United States have, for many years now, been the targets for infiltration by white supremacist terror organizations. It has long been a practice of the Ku Klux Klan to join municipal police forces, which better positions its members to commit acts of violence and suppression against black communities with near-absolute impunity.

There have already been attempts in the US by state prosecutors and local police forces themselves to root out white supremacist terrorists from their ranks. But these trail far behind the density of racist radicalization and sympathy in the ranks of police around the country. Canada is subject to the same extremist infiltration. One example is the sympathy that the Sûreté de Québec holds for the racist organization La Meute (The Wolfpack), arresting 44 democratic protestors in 2017 at a white supremacist rally.

An Ever-Present Threat to Democracy and Freedom

Terrorist groups dedicated to destroying our democracy through armed uprising and mass violence have infiltrated the ranks of our military and police. We must purge these terrorists from our law enforcement and armed forces, break up their organizations, and detain them until they can be de-radicalized from their violent racism.
