Terrence Cecil Tremaine (born July 20, 1948 in Regina, Saskatchewan) is the founder and national director of the National-Socialist Party of Canada. He is a White Nationalist organizer who has posted on White Nationalist web forums such as Stormfront and other websites using the screen name “mathdoktor99,” and on other websites as “JCMateri.”
Tremaine holds a B.A. in Mathematics (with a minor in Philosophy) from the University of Regina and a M.Sc. in Mathematics from Concordia University in Montreal, Quebec. From 1983 he was a part-time lecturer in mathematics and statistics at a number of universities, including the University of Saskatchewan. Tremaine was terminated from his position at the University of Saskatchewan in April 2005 following a complaint.
On April 8, 2005, Richard Warman filed a complaint to the Canadian Human Rights Commission regarding Tremaine, alleging he "engaged in a discriminatory practice on the ground of religion, national or ethnic origin, race and colour, in a matter related to the usage of a telecommunication undertaking" in violation of the Canadian Human Rights Act. In late April the University of Saskatchewan, where Tremaine had been working as a sessional lecturer in Mathematics, received a complaint about his posting. As a result, Tremaine was let go by the university.
In response to the complaint to the commission, Tremaine wrote a letter of apology “expressing regret for his postings, indicating that he was deeply ashamed of them, and apologizing to the Jewish community.” Tremaine later began posting on Stormfront once again and fully repudiated his apology.
In August 2006, Tremaine appeared before the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal in Ottawa, represented by Paul Fromm. At the hearing Tremaine repudiated his apology and emphasized that he was a National Socialist. On September 13, 2006, Fromm requested "that the case be re-opened to allow him to make a motion requesting that the complaint of Mr. Richard Warman be dismissed because of a poisoned environment and harassment on him, as representative of the Respondent, Terry Tremaine." This motion was denied on October 17, 2006.
