They have more in common with the 'mainstream' right wing. Then the mainstream left wing but the mainstream ring wing is just as dangerous to whites as the left. If not moreso. The 'alt right' isn't really 'right' either. It's an anti materialist, racialized, separatist movement. It's anti egalitarian and anti LGBT. The modern right supports egalitarianism, LGBT and hates anything that threatens their materialism.

It wasn't always like this. Back in the 1990s, provinces like Alberta and Saskatchewan were actually strongholds for the Reform Party. Read up on their platform and they wanted to lower immigration, stop the legalization of homosexuality, and supported more autonomy over federalization.

Despite making huge gains as the official opposition, it came at a cost of splitting the Conservative vote, to which the Liberals were able to stay in power for the entire decade. Eventually, the Reform Party merged with the Conservatives, and it finally lead to to the Liberals being dethroned for a while, but the new leader of this party (Stephen Harper) became an ultra civnat. He skyrocketed immigration under the idea that Brown immigrants are "just like us", and while it did work for a couple of years, the Liberals turned this weapon against them, and started calling Harper a racist while promising to bring even more immigrants to Canada (I shit you not).

So now that's how Trudeau and the Liberals have controlled Canada since 2015 and anything the Conservatives do to try and win back the immigrants they originally let in, has completely backfired.
