R.F. is worse then you think. As the most recent article insinuates, you guys have just been getting the tip of the iceberg. I have no idea if mods are just going to immediately remove this post but I need to try anyway.
I have tried ringing the alarms about just how bad who he is, is, but both news orgs i reached out to refused to post my comment (I tried leaving comments in response to articles about him), one citing concern about "libel laws", and the other reaching out to me but me fleeing the scene for fear of providing too much detail that might alert Rowen to who I am. That was months ago though and I'm feeling a bit braver today, knowing I'm not the only one whose tried to alert people about him. but his old nazi picture is NOTHING compared to what he's done to people.
As I've left in a previous comment on one of the many posts about him, (which the moderators removed - interesting how that was quickly removable but not his friend/employee helping him surpass his reddit ban, I wonder sometimes if one of the moderators are his friend)((and my reply was from a different account for those confused seeing this username for the first time, I'm using a burner for this post)), i am TERRIFIED of him because he is very very violent and abusive. him with that microphone this past week is him at some of his best most professional behavior.
Rowan/Rowen Fraser (he changed the spelling of his name for this councillor thing, he went by Rowan with an "a" for years) is an extremely unstable, violent, aggressive, abusive person. He lies (he also lied about his age to me and others, him being almost 40 is news to me), he cheats, he steals, and those are the palatable things. He is a drug addict, his drug of choice being meth, but whatever he can get his hands on really. He's even crushed up his own prescriptions to snort.
Many of you have called him an incel. Unfortunately he's not. Like an incel he believes sexual gratification is owed to him, however unlike an incel he will fill you up with drugs or alcohol, coerce, or just generally ignore consent to actually act on it and get it. and he has not just done this to women, unfortunately, males, and they/thems too. So long as you're far far younger then him and vulnerable. If he has a sexuality it is hobo-sexual.
"If all this is true why don't you go to the police?" I have. I have pictures of bruises, but no videos so according to them "it could have been anyone", I showed them texts where he is being intense and insulting and aggressive, but according to the cops I went to "those are just texts, we can't do anything with that". frankly, I do not trust or believe in cops, especially after this experience, and I'm always surprised that so many people still do. I want you all to know, the Canadian penal system is not working well. Even if we all worked together and did put him in jail, violent and sexual offenders are frequently being released early on bail and repeating their offences. So at best, we get him in jail for a couple of years and then he's back at it. I just want to warn people to be on guard, it feels like the only thing I can do.
"what about his parents?" for once, he's not lying. his mother did die a few years ago. His mother and his father have tried to get him help but he absolutely refuses. he yells at his doctors and leaves. he is so deluded that he really seems to believe there's nothing wrong with him. he has gotten into a fist fight with his step-mother (his mothers wife). Â (so yes, his mother being gay, and him having partaken in plenty of gay sex would make you think he couldn't have made those transphobic comments ((which he once did in one of his reddit replies)), but here we are.)
"What is his job? how is he doing this?" as i said, he is a hobo-sexual. I really think he hasn't had a job for at least a year and would claim him running is his job. every single previous job he has either been fired or quit by not showing up to do drugs. his current GF is a banker and if i had to guess, is footing the bill for everything. I truly hope she can get out and heal, but she has been warned at this point and seems to still be supporting him. I will not name her because these things are complicated and despite how it looks from the outside she could be terrified too and just trying to figure a way out. he lies through his teeth constantly, and somehow a lot of people around him just completely believe it even though his actions have showed something completely different. The friends of his that have defended him in the comments are also party people who like to "go hard at the bar" and don't seem to be very good at critical thinking. No one who's known him for very long can think he's a good, trustworthy person. it's all of like 3 people that are still telling him this is a good idea and everyone who disagrees with him are just his haters. whenever he says "our movement is bigger then ever" it's these 3 people who like his posts. check out his official council running fb, it's very embarrassing.
"How has he gotten away with so much stuff for so long?" He's been the way he is for a very long time, at least 2 decades, leaving behind a trail of victims everywhere he goes. He's moved to multiple different cities in Southern Ontario, every time he burns down every single bridge possible and just jumps ship. I also suspect others have tried going to cops about him before but apparently without a 4K video recording absolutely everything and him starting the video with his face in frame saying "I am Rowen Fraser and I am committing these crimes" it's not good enough and won't count. I really don't understand it. he's even gotten into car accidents that he's posted himself to his facebook. Please feel free to bring all this to the cops yourself if you'd like, maybe they'll listen to you when they wouldn't for me. I don't have access to his deleted posts, but they would. oh, and these days, his writing feels somewhat legible only because he uses AI constantly for everything. there used to be many more typos and nonsensical ramblings.
I havemy own physical evidence and videos that I will not post publicly because I do not want to out myself, however I am attaching screenshots of things that either are directly related to what I've said above (like how he left a comment on his own fb post recently saying someone got his name wrong, but also a picture of his 2 fb accounts, one of which is spelt with the A) and then just a few from recent months from his rr4council account to show his character. There were far worse posts on his old reddit but I didn't think to grab screenshots in time and he did try to delete everything before his race. (he says he didn't, he really did. good job on finding the nazi pic because he really tried to scrub everything.) if anyone feels like spending there time trying to comb through old things or find deleted posts his old accounts on things were usually "rowrowthegreat" or "techhelpwizard", I thought they would be accessible forever because everything on the internet is forever, but he did manage to delete it. I appreciate the good will of those who've left comments saying we should give "the benefit of the doubt" and that we shouldn't insult someone if theyre just struggling mentally, but unfortunately in this case you've been defending an abuser. and to the BGazette, you say "our readers won't forgive us if we release this most recent disgusting messages of his." well, I as one of his victims don't forgive u for keeping it hidden. people need to know who he is. though I appreciate very much you trying to out him as much as possible, thank you for taking victims somewhat seriously at least.
COULD NOT ADD IMAGES. REDDIT KEEPS AUTO-BANNING. SOMEHOW GOT THIS THROUGH FOR A SECOND.
PLEASE WARN ANYONE YOU KNOW WHO MIGHT COME ACROSS HIM TO STAY AWAY AND SAFE
