‎‎A man from Ottawa accused of committing terrorist offenses for promoting a far-right group has been released on bail.

Patrick Gordon McDonald, 26, was charged in July with participating in terrorist group activity, facilitating terrorist activity, and intentionally promoting hatred for a terrorist group.

The RCMP said he helped create propaganda materials for Atomwaffen Division, a neo-Nazi organization that has been designated as a terrorist group in Canada since 2021.

McDonald’s parents posted a $40,000 bail at a hearing on Wednesday, and he is now under conditions requiring him to stay at his parents' home.

He is also only allowed to leave the house with one of his parents or to attend legal, counseling, or medical appointments.

He is not allowed to possess firearms and cannot use any computers or internet-connected devices without parental supervision.

McDonald was the first person charged in Canada with terrorism-related offenses and hate propaganda due to his alleged ties to violent far-right ideology.

His bail conditions also prohibit him from contacting a list of 10 individuals and require him to surrender his passport.

The police alleged that he was operating under an alias online, known as "the dark foreigner."

The Canada Public Safety Agency also stated that the group advocates for committing acts of violence against racial, religious, and ethnic groups, as well as informants, police, and bureaucrats, to cause societal collapse.

They have established training camps where members receive combat and weapons training, and their members have previously committed acts of violence, including a deadly rally by white extremists in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017.

The American co-leader of the group was banned from entering Canada after the Immigration and Refugee Board determined he was a member of a terrorist group.

McDonald is also expected to return to court on September 19.

The charges against him have not been proven in court.
