Last Summer, Diagolon held their “Road Rage Terror Tour” in various cities across Canada. Plenty of photos were taken, and licence plates recorded. But it seems that the fallout hasn’t ended, and it’s from an unexpected source.
A scheduled stop in Hamilton was cancelled as a result of backlash from the public. This came after expenses were racked up in anticipation of holding the event. That’s when relations really soured, and all over a fairly small amount of money.
What do the saviours of the White race do? Their leader files a lawsuit in Ottawa.
According to the Claim, MacKenzie gave money to McEvoy, who was actually making reservations. Everything was in her name.
When the event ultimately got cancelled, MacKenzie demanded a refund from the organization. He was refused, on the basis that McEvoy was the one who made the payment (via etransfer), and that it would have to be returned to her. This was to comply with anti-money laundering laws.
McEvoy kept the money, so MacKenzie decided to sue her.
McEvoy then countersued, on the basis that the funds MacKenzie had paid her don’t even come close to what she paid out of pocket on other items. Considering that she spent time volunteering for the group, this is a strange way to show appreciation.
Nothing was resolved at the Settlement Conference, so the next step is Trial, assuming MacKenzie pays the fee for it. He backed out of going to Trial against Ezra Levant.
Timeline Of Events
April 7th to June 6th, 2024: McEvoy incurs expenses in anticipation of the “Road Rage Terror Tour” stopping by and having an event.
May 2nd, 2024: MacKenzie transfers $1,188 to McEvoy.
July 4th, 2024: MacKenzie transfers another $366.
July 31st, 2024: The Caledonia venue issues a refund (to McEvoy) of the deposit.
August 1st, 2024: MacKenzie is informed that refunds will have to be issued to McEvoy herself, as she’s the one who they received money from.
August 8th, 2024: MacKenzie files a $1,554 lawsuit in Ottawa Small Claims Court.
August 28th, 2024: McEvoy files a defence against the claim.
September 17th, 2024: McEvoy files a counterclaim for $2,187.23.
January 13th, 2025: Settlement conference is held, and neither claim is resolved.
And that’s where things stand now. If a Trial is ever held, an update will be posted.
Lawsuit Doesn’t Really Help “The Brand”
It’s no wonder that as a movement, Diagolon struggles to gain traction. Aside from being an obvious honeypot, it’s really a bad look to be suing volunteers over small change. This is even more so the case then they spend money out of pocket.
While blaming biased media for declining interest is possible, this will likely hurt more. Nothing turns off potential supporters like seeing others taken advantage of.
It probably doesn’t help that the group had been (allegedly) misrepresenting themselves when attempting to book venues. That led to more cancellations later on.
Did it have to come to this? Surely, CSIS has an expense account that they can reimburse MacKenzie from, so that he’s not preoccupied over the small details.
