  "account": "Kukpi7 Rosanne Casimir, the chief of the Tkʼemlúps te Secwépemc First Nations, expressed shock upon discovering a group of masked individuals believed to be white nationalists had held a demonstration on the reserve. Video footage circulating online showed several individuals donning black clothing and face-covering hats. Community members, along with security personnel, observed the group and promptly informed the police and leadership. The incident has raised concerns among community members, particularly with the approaching National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30. Casimir suggested that the timing of the protest may have been influenced by this observance. The individuals involved, possibly part of the Second Sons of Canada, numbered between 20 to 30 and were armed with flags. RCMP and security responded to the situation, with Casimir stating that the Mounties provided updates. Provincial leaders, including Premier David Eby and interim BC Conservative Leader Lorne Doerkson, have condemned the protest, labeling it as hateful, dangerous, and unwelcome on Tkʼemlúps te Secwépemc land.",
