Proud Boys Canada, a far-right group added to the country's list of terrorist entities in February, announced Sunday it had dissolved itself.
The big picture: The group, founded by Gavin McInnes, a Canadian who lives in the U.S., insisted in a statement "we were never terrorists or a white supremacy group," per Reuters. Its members are among dozens charged over the U.S. Capitol riot. Several took part in a poorly attended far-right protest last month that organizers called a "white lives matter" rally.
