Daniel Tyrie is a Canadian political activist who is the founder and current chairman of the Dominion Society of Canada. He is also the former Executive Director of the People's Party of Canada.
Early life
Tyrie was born in 1996 and was raised in Toronto. He was educated at the University of Waterloo where he earned a Bachelor's of Arts in Political Science and Economics.[2]
Political career
Tyrie served as the People's Party of Canada's Executive Director from 2019 to 2024.[3]
On 1 July 2025, he founded the Dominion Society of Canada alongside Greg Wycliffe and Ken Jones.[4] The Dominion Society is a Canadian nationalist organization which advocates for a cessation of most forms of immigration to Canada and the remigration of immigrants not of European descent.[5]
On 16 May 2026, it was announced that Tyrie would be a speaker at the 2026 Remigration Summit in Porto, Portugal.[6] This conference was a platform for the Identitarian movement.[7] [8]
Political views
Views on immigration
Tyrie has stated strong opposition to Canada's immigration policies as of 2025, and has advocated for remigration.[9] [10] [11] Tyrie has also stated that he wants to end birthright citizenship.[12] During an interview while attending the 2026 Remigration Summit in Portugal, Politico journalist Marion Solletty asked Tyrie and other attendees if they considered themselves to be racist to which Tyrie replied, "I don’t consider myself a hateful person. I don’t go around spitting on people of color because they’re in my country. I just don’t think they belong here."[13]
Views on multiculturalism
Tyrie rejects multiculturalism, stating that, "Canada is not just a multicultural economic-zone. We are a nation forged through generations of struggle and sacrifice."[14] As part of the Dominion Society's 11 step plan, Tyrie and the Dominion Society want to repeal the Canadian Multiculturalism Act and replace it with a piece of legislation known as the "National Cohesion Act", which would affirm Canada’s founding as a historically European, Christian, and bicultural English and French nation with a common civic identity.[15] [16]
Criticism
The Canadian Anti-Hate Network considers the Dominion Society as the "political arm" of white supremacist group Second Sons.[17] [18] However, in an emailed statement to The Tyee, Tyrie disputed this characterization.[19] Jeremy MacKenzie, the founder and leader of the Second Sons, denied that he or his group have any connections to the Dominion Society of Canada other than "the collective foaming at the mouth bloodlust from modern liberalism."[20]

Organizers and speakers whom POLITICO talked to at the venue all denied the accusations of racism that hang over the movement. "I don't consider myself a hateful person," said Canadian activist Daniel Tyrie, who was on one of the panels. "I don't go around spitting on people of color because they're in my country." "I just don't think they belong here."

Repeal the Canadian Multiculturalism Act and remove all references to multiculturalism from federal law, policy, and Charter interpretation. Replace it with a new National Cohesion Act that affirms Canada's founding as a historically European, Christian, and bicultural (English and French) nation with a common civic identity.

Tyrie's Society calls for repealing the Multiculturalism Act, with their main goal being to re-entrench exclusionary categories of who "counts" as Canadian, and even building a social order closer to caste than to equality.

Balgord described the Dominion Society as the "political wing" of the movement, but Daniel Tyrie, the co-founder of the organization, disputes that description. "Characterizing the Dominion Society as the 'political wing' of other groups is a baseless and misleading claim that misrepresents our structure, mission and activities," Tyrie told The Tyee in an emailed statement. "We view this as an intentional attempt to undermine the credibility of a fast-growing organization whose message on national identity and remigration is resonating with a growing number of Canadians."
