Patron facing third charge of impersonating a peace officer

Travis Patron, the former leader of the now-defunct Canadian Nationalist Party, is facing yet another charge in Saskatoon.

According to Saskatoon police and court records, a man approached a man and a woman at Midtown Plaza on July 30, and criminally harassed them.

In connection with that incident, Patron has been charged with impersonating a peace officer and breach of court-imposed conditions.

Patron is facing the same charges along with one count of criminal harassment in two previous incidents in Saskatoon as well.

One allegedly occurred on Spadina Crescent involving a mother and her child on July 29. The other allegedly happened at the University of Saskatchewan, where he allegedly identified himself as a peace officer and offered to escort a woman on campus grounds on July 31.

Patron has already been convicted of wilfully promoting hate, assault causing bodily harm, and mischief over the past two years.

He’s expected in Saskatoon Provincial Court on Thursday morning for a bail hearing.
