Since the Heritage Front was reorganized at the beginning of this year by Marc Lemire, they have been stepping up their activity across the country. Recently, HF began posting racist flyers in Halifax, Nova Scotia. These flyers have appeared at a downtown music store, on the bulletin board and in the shelves of the public library, and on telephone poles. Each flyer lists the Toronto mailing address of HF, their telephone number, their Web site, and the e-mail address of HF's Halifax chapter. It doesn't matter that ten years and more of anti-racist action has demonstrated repeatedly that exposing racist groups does them great harm.
Racist groups hate to be exposed.
The only publicity they want is the publicity they can control. Overwhelmingly, working people reject organized racist groups as soon as they find out what they are really about. Clearly, the government has no intention of living up to the covenants it signs. And the racist organizations know that very well. They know that they can sell any amount of the most vile racist literature and never be taken to court for it.
