PENTICTON, B.C. - A former employee of an Internet provider who lets racist groups spout their views through his service says his ex-boss gave him white supremacist literature.
Tyrone Mills, who worked for Fairview Technology Centre in 1994, says Bernard Klatt gave him literature from the White Aryan Resistance and invited him to an Aryan Nations compound at Hayden Lake, Idaho. ''I said no, I had no interest at all, and that was that,'' said Mills, who worked for Klatt for seven months.
''Another time he asked me, in 1995, to manage his (business) while he was down in Hayden Lake.''
He said Klatt voiced racist views at work and once asked him to take the literature to a friend. Klatt denied Mills's charges.
The small Internet service in the Okanagan Valley provides access to at least 12 white supremacy and hate groups.
But it could be going off-line. The local cable TV company has cut off Fairview's cable access and ordered Klatt to get his server computer out of its offices.
