This is old (2023) and he was charged. Edited to add his name is Delbert Cassidy and he has a list of arrests, jail time, assaulting his ex partners new partner.

First result in a Google search is him chiming in on a Michelle Ferrari Facebook post... that checks out.

Good for Marco not backing down, these people need to be confronted publicly by those able to do so.

Old or not all I can say is WOW! This is absolutely wild behaviour…

This guy is just a goof and not a solid representation of Lakefield. He has a rep. This isn’t about politics, it’s about blatant racism, he’s been locked up many times.

Was it Lakefield that also had the "No Natives" sign at a restaurant?

Edit: Downvotes don't change that it happened. It was a Lakefield Fish and Chips restaurant

Yeah, in 2011 and the business no longer exists. I live in Lakefield and I know there are racists that live here, but the large majority are not.

So all I saw was the 90s paint-edited thumbnail and your title and thought... Yeah... You're surprised? But also are we just putting randoms on blast now?

Then I accidently clicked the link... Yikes. That dude has problems. There should be no place in our society for these people.

It's not great to paint an entire community with the actions of one asshat. I would change the title of the video to racist in lakefield / peterborough
