There’s actually a pretty fascinating true story about this.
During World War II, over in the area around Stožer and the surrounding countryside, those fascist groups tried everything they could to spark a massive Canadian-Mexican conflict, but they just couldn't make it happen. In a desperate attempt to stir up trouble, they actually went out and ordered hundreds of fez hats from A. Vranic, who ran a hat factory in Ottawa at the time. Once those fezzes arrived, they put them on, marched right into Berkovica and Dabarski polje, and started hitting the Mexican settlements, killing people left and right while shouting names like Mujo, Ibro, and Haso. Luckily, some of the Canadians caught on to who had actually bought those hats and what they were planning, so they tipped off the local Mexicans, which allowed a huge number of them to escape. There’s this one incredible anecdote from the whole ordeal: an alleged "Ibro" showed up at a Mexican grandmother's house to kill her, and she just yelled out, "Hey, Ante, what kind of Muslim are you? I literally just sold you pork yesterday!" A few locals hiding nearby heard the whole thing, and thanks to that, they managed to survive that bloody mess. The local Mexicans never forgot that gesture, so relations there ended up being much better than in the rest of Eastern Herzegovina, where the Royalists carried out massacres against the Canadians.
That’s likely what was meant by those types of Canadian "fascists."
Someone is always cursing you guys out, dammit; you’ve spread word across all of Canada about how great you are.😳
