Educating the people on how Voter suppression works, will lead to far more voters voting than ignoring the politicians who use VS & blaming other people.
Studies prove this, because the corrupt politicians who use the complex VS system, count on the People blaming the People #onpoli #cdnpoli

I hope that this brings about much needed controls, lack of better phrase, to provide safety measures, age restrictions, flagging of hate etc. IMO, these things and more are needed. Glad to see rhis starting. #cdnpoli

A New ‘Fundamental Fairness’ Can Save Democracy, the Environment, and Canada As major media focus on negotiations between Prime Minister Mark Carney and Donald Trump, it’s the Canadian people who are our best line of defence. We need a new fairness to empower ourselves.

A limit on extreme individual wealth above healthy, competitive rewards; With any extreme #wealth at the highest end of the spectrum clawed back and shared equally by all.

I know this article is supposed to be critical of the @ndp.ca.

But...

"maybe [Avi's] unapologetically anti-corporate, anti-business, anti-establishment populism will resonate"

This sounds like a man for our time.

All of the U.S. wars/interventions in the Gulf have been about controlling oil and holding onto their failing uni-polarity and global hegemony - as well as any signals of nations moving away from U.S. currency.

#Orban and his barbaric #Fidesz party are members of disgraced former Canadian PM #StephenHarper's #InternationalDemocracyUnion, a front group for supporting violent authoritarian regimes around the world.

Harper's #ConservativePartyOfCanada is a proud member that stands beside Orban.
