Chris Vanderweide, a member of the hate group Northern Guard, is planning on holding a rally at Kitchener City Hall this Saturday. Chris is billing this event as an "anti-bullying rally", but we know that this will just be another chance for him to promote his hate.

Chris is currently out on bail for assault, for when he crashed Hamilton Pride with a group of hate preachers and attacked people who were attending Pride. The next weekend, along with his Northern Guard buddies and the Islamophobic organization PEGIDA, attempted to disrupt Toronto Pride and then followed a counter-protester into a mall where they attacked them.

Chris is clearly a violent bigot, and we cannot allow him to hold a hate rally in our city. Join us Saturday at city hall to show that bigots aren't welcome here!
