Soldiers Of Odin Canada Bylaws:

Soldiers Of Odin Canada is a club and a non-profit organization.

Soldiers Of Odin Canada is a Division of the original Soldiers Of Odin Finland.
Soldiers Of Odin Canada is a non-racist, conservative organization that seeks
to keep Canadians safe in their daily activities and also uphold and protect
our Constitutional Rights, by acting as a nationwide community watch
organization. We believe that the higher authorities are failing the Canadian
citizens. Between the allowing of illegal aliens into this country and giving
them the ability to vote and drive, accepting refugees from countries that
hate us while Canadians are on the streets, releasing confirmed terrorists
back to their organizations to cause more harm against Canada, and
demonizing anything that has to do with European Culture to try and create
racial tensions to turn citizens on one another; we as Soldiers Of Odin realize
that it is time to take back our streets, provinces, and country. We believe in
protecting the streets with observe-and-report styled patrols, and if necessary
come to the defense of anyone who may need us. We are the eyes and ears
of the police in places that the police cannot always be. We want to
cooperate with local authorities to help make local communities better. We
will also host family friendly events and give back to the local charities in our
communities. We have members of different races, religions, backgrounds,
and creeds; but when members don the S.O.O. Canada Odins Head all
personal beliefs are forgotten and we all stand together.

Just to make it clear, we are not:

A racist group
A religions group
A gang
A motorcycle club
Or any sort of criminal organization

We do not meddle in the business of other groups or organizations.
