Doug Ford is famously dismissive of the media. He even created his own literal fake news outlet to avoid having too talk to them.

Yeah but the whole solar system is moving at 720,000 km/h, so all those bikes on other planets are moving just as fast.

Fuck yeah, keep making these comments. At least for the next two weeks. Then kindly fuck off.

Don't trust the polls is a precursor to stop the steal.

Fantastic article, thanks for sharing!

The video on prefab housing they link to is also well worth a watch: https://youtu.be/26iVJfiDgP0

Right on! That draft looks great, no notes. Just wanted to say thanks for putting it together and for the quick response. Also for taking the time to get this community off the ground, all much appreciated!

I originally posted this in a separate post, but was redirected here. It's more about the "how" rather than the "what", original text below:

The community description explicitly states that this community is non-partisan. I think this is a very smart call because we'll need people with all sorts of different political ideologies to get onboard if we're ever going have a shot at implementing some form of PR.

However lately the sub seems to be filled with anti Poilievre articles that don't seem to have anything to so with electoral reform. I'm no fan of Poilievre, but in my experience electoral reform is already unfairly labeled as a "leftist" policy.

My opinion is that the most important thing we can do is help conservatives understand that PR is in their best interest just as much as it is for people on the left. It means the conservative movement no longer needs to live under one giant tent. It will be able to split into multiple parties that can then form coalitions on the issues that matter to them. Conservatives on the fringe benefit because at least they'll have some representation in parliament.

Anyway, any conservatives who are interested in electoral reform and come peek at this community will be immediately turned off by the content that's here. So please, let's try to keep posts as non-partisan as possibly, and focused on things relevant to electoral reform!

They'll regret not staying longer after catching up with current events.
