I wonder if there is ever going to be a reliable source as to who is a member of a group like the Heritage Front. Extremist groups do not normally identify their members because of likely retaliation. There are their opponents who like to reveal the names of members but they might not be regarded as ideal sources because of their partisanship.
We don't seem to have that problem with Don Black. Maybe if the group is not covered in that much detail by credible, independent sources, it is not actually that important? Sometimes we only cast glory on these idiots by publicising their existence.
Is that likely to pass WP:BLP? "A. B. is said by Nazi Watch Canada to be a member of Nasty Organisation X <ref>Nazi Watch Canada blog</ref>".
Unless Nazi Watch Canada (in this case a website called CanadianContent - "news and rants from the other side") has a long and glorious record of scrupulous fairness, I'd be very wary of single-sourcing a claim to them.
And actually the cited source explicitly states that she did *not* join the Heritage Front.
