The NATO association of Canadas youth protg, 16-year-old Jaden Braves, who is co-president of the Green Party of Canadas youth wing and CEO of the Young Politicians of Canada recently posted a video of himself firing a semi-automatic firearm while leaning on a NATO flag. These events have ignited outrage from peace activists across the country including sharp condemnation from Green Party of Quebec leader Alex Tyrrell.

Braves is an outspoken advocate for increased military spending and other NATO-aligned policies. He is a self identified Zionist. Trained by the NATO Association of Canada, a transnational organization, Jaden Braves has become a frequent guest on mainstream Canadian media, including the CBC, CTV and CPAC. He has participated in international NATO meetings, met with federal cabinet ministers, ambassadors, and even joined a delegation to the White House as part of a National Security Task Force.

In his social media posts and public statements, Braves repeatedly argues that Canada and its allies must ramp up military spending and prepare for future conflicts. His Instagram reels juxtapose calls for standing up for our future with footage of tanks rolling by a dead body its about our future says Braves in the video recorded at the NATO public form in Washington D.C. last year standing in front of the official convention backdrop if we do not stand up now we will not have one. If its not young people looking out our world leaders may not.

Honestly, I'm taken aback by this. Aren't Green Parties generally for leftists?

Being pro-Nato seems like a good thing, no?

Green is the extreme left and right depending on policy. Or said another way. They go so far left that they look right.

greens are the misfit party

sometimes this means environmentalism (which is a misfit opinion nowadays sorry) but it also means things like antivaxers and crystal healing and all sorts of wack stuff. they had a good leader years back but when she stepped down, the party has sort of lost its identity, become nonsense, and never properly recovered

Green parties are generally for people concerned about the environment. While that tends to be more left-leaning people, it's not exclusively so.
