In 1981, Droege helped organize a failed attempt, codenamed "Operation Red Dog", to invade the Caribbean nation of Dominica and overthrow its government and restore deposed Prime Minister Patrick John to power.

Wolfgang Droege at a Heritage Front event.

Upon his release from jail in 1989, Droege went to Libya to attend a congress of what became the International Third Position and then returned to Canada to found the Heritage Front. The growth of the neo-Nazi group prompted the creation of Anti-Racist Action (ARA) in Toronto which devotes itself to combating the Front and other groups. In 1992, Droege's connections with racist organizations led to his expulsion from the Reform Party of Canada. In 1993, following a brawl with ARA members, Droege was charged and convicted of aggravated assault and possession of dangerous weapons, and he served two months of a three-month sentence. Following his release from prison, Droege drifted away from organized racial activity and worked for a time as a bailiff. After losing his job, he returned to cigarette and drug trafficking as well as auto theft. In 1998 he pleaded guilty to possession of a stolen car.
