“…Vaccine resister and "scamdemic" populations should have been the ideal, if not inevitable, hosts for pseudolaw. 292 Instead, this article documents that "scamdemic" communities were certainly "colonized" by pseudolaw, but never "conscripted" or "coopted." Pseudolaw activists and gurus -New Constitutionalists, Queen Didulo, Kevin Annett, the MCLR, Christopher Pritchard -all became players in the "scamdemic" phenomenon, but always remained "a fringe of a fringe."…”

United States-sourced false law concepts, “pseudolaw,” were the schematic backbone for a number of Canadian anti-authority and criminal populations that operated in 2000–2015. These “first wave” pseudolaw groups and their descendants are now dead or inactive. A “second wave” of novel pseudolaw groups has since emerged, energized and catalyzed by economic stress and the COVID-19 pandemic. This article reviews Canadian second wave pseudolaw and its host populations, documents second-wave pseudolaw theories and activities, and examines their comparatively limited success. Finally, the potential of violence building off pseudolaw in Canada is investigated.
