Jeremy MacKenzie, a Canadian Armed Forces veteran and former infantry soldier with three children, who runs a podcast called “Raging Dissident,” has been banned from his banking institution, Scotiabank, and told by the bank that it no longer wants him as a customer.

MacKenzie, who is the founder of Diagolon, said he will consider legal action. “I might need to sue them because I feel like this is predatory. This is discriminatory because of my legal situation,” he said on the call with Scotiabank.
