A reference guide to terms and numbers used in the neo-Nazi movement
Nationalist - As in National Socialists. This is the preferred term of most of the people in Calgary's movement. Some shy away from "neo-Nazi."
Racialist - One who is aware of one's race, and proud of it, they say. White nationalists prefer this to "racist."
Oi - A white nationalist, stemming from punk music subculture embraced by many skinheads. An "Oi toy" is a derogatory phrase for a woman who dates a white nationalist but doesn't buy into the movement
Odin's Cross - Also known as the Celtic Cross, it's among the most popular tattoos for skinheads, behind the Swastika. Most who have the tattoos claim they're a reference to an original meaning, and deny the obvious hateful links to Nazism.
Skin - Another frequent tattoo. Short form for skinhead, a music subculture largely tied in with white nationalism. One white nationalist in Calgary has tattooed "skin" to his forehead.
Stormfront - The most prominent neo-Nazi website. It's based in the United States and its content is protected by that nation's First Amendment free speech laws.
Blood and Honour - Calgary's most prominent white nationalist group, including most of the people who made up Aryan Guard, which was prominent but has largely broken apart.
W.E.B.: - Another Calgary white nationalist group, which hasn't settled on what its acronym stands for - either Western European Bloodlines or Western European Brotherhood. Group is believed to be volatile and violent.
Volksfront: Another Calgary group, largely underground.
WNL - The White Nationalist Legion, a fledgling Edmonton neo-Nazi group.
WCFU - Western Canada For Us, a white nationalist group shut down by Edmonton police in 2004.
Aryan Nations - A neo-Nazi group that once infamously tried to set up in the small town of Caroline, Alta.
PLE - Pioneer Little Europes, a largely conceptual notion whereby neo-Nazis swamp a town or neighborhood to live among one another. Such efforts have failed in Canada.
