Gavin Miles McInnes (born 17 July 1970) is a Canadian writer, podcaster, far-right commentator and founder of the Proud Boys.

He is the host of Get Off My Lawn with Gavin McInnes on Censored.TV, which he founded.

Gavin Miles McInnes was born on 17 July 1970 in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, England, the son of Scottish parents James McInnes, who later became the Vice-President of Operations at Gallium Visual Systems Inc. – a Canadian defence company – and Loraine McInnes, a retired business teacher.

He attended Ottawa's Earl of March Secondary School.

As a teen, McInnes played in an Ottawa punk band called Anal Chinook.

He graduated from Carleton University.

1990

Richard Szalwinski, a Canadian software millionaire, acquired the magazine and relocated the operation to New York City in the late 1990s.

During McInnes's tenure he was described as the "godfather" of hipsterdom by WNBC and as "one of hipsterdom's primary architects" by AdBusters.

He occasionally contributed articles to Vice, including "The VICE Guide to Happiness" and "The VICE Guide to Picking Up Chicks", and co-authored two Vice books: The Vice Guide to Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll, and Vice Dos and Don'ts: 10 Years of VICE Magazine's Street Fashion Critiques.

The magazine was launched as the Voice of Montreal with government funding.

The intention of the founders was to provide work and a community service.

2002

In an interview in the New York Press in 2002, McInnes said that he was pleased that most Williamsburg hipsters were white.

McInnes later wrote in a letter to Gawker that the interview was done as a prank intended to ridicule "baby boomer media like The Times".

After he became the focus of a letter-writing campaign by a black reader, Vice apologized for McInnes's comments.

McInnes jokingly blamed the show's cancellation on the other cast members (Kristen Schaal, David Cross, and H. Jon Benjamin) not being "as funny" as him.
