An investigative report published by the Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN) on October 30 2025 details how Canada’s white-nationalist ecosystem has coalesced around three interconnected branches, with the Dominion Society of Canada serving as the political arm. CAHN estimates the Dominion Society’s membership has surpassed 1,600— up 60 % since September—fuelled by online recruitment campaigns opposing current immigration levels.
The report outlines how propaganda channel Diagolon and militant “Active Clubs” coordinate messaging that calls for mass deportations of non-European immigrants. While their numbers remain small relative to Canada’s population, CAHN argues that the groups punch above their weight through coordinated social-media harassment, doxxing of immigration advocates and attempts to infiltrate mainstream political parties.
For global-mobility leaders, the findings raise duty-of-care considerations. International assignees and foreign students may require enhanced security briefings, particularly in regions where the Dominion Society claims local chapters. Multinational employers with visible diversity initiatives could become targets of online campaigns, necessitating proactive reputation-management planning.
The report also increases pressure on Ottawa to finalize long-awaited online-harms legislation, which would give regulators new takedown powers against extremist content. Immigration lawyers note that a more hostile political climate could influence discretionary decisions on visitor visas and work permits if public discourse shifts sharply against immigration.
CAHN calls for greater collaboration between civil society, law enforcement and tech platforms to monitor extremist networks and protect newcomers. Employers are encouraged to engage community partners and reaffirm anti-racism policies as part of broader diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) strategies.
