CBC Here and Now has a call in asking why people didn't vote. 🫣 Every anecdote being told is an example of effective #VoterSuppression
When turnout goes down year over year, that's no accident. They teach this shit at IDU. #onpoli #TOpoli
For those in my DMs grasping their pearls at the suggestion we should look really closely at our election bodies: HELLO?! This is the president of the Ontario PC party. Image
People seem to have forgotten that Thug used the notwithstanding clause to overrule a court that ruled against his #VoterSuppression legislation. He made it illegal to criticize him before the election. 🤯 And media called it a "quiet election". Like, c'mon.
Reader, he did not. It paid off big time for Thug. cbc.ca/radio/thehouse…
Anyway, Canada has become exceedingly good at #VoterSuppression in the last decade or so. So good, people will argue that it's not happening while it's happening right in front of us. This is fairly easy to pull off when every media outlet is aligned. 🙃😐
I think it's no coincidence we've got chicanery in all these leadership races. Destabilization comes in many forms, but undemocratic leadership races seem to be all the rage.

Moved to TO and ON at 18. Leaving in Feb. Fu*k this slip 'n slide into shithole. Corrupt mobsters, actively consolidating our public assets into their own greasy hands. Sick of life under this fucker.
I used to feel lucky to live here, excited by the incredible people from all over the world who came here by choice! I worked in the Ministry of Health. It is overrun now with partisan shitheads and the mob. Our hospitals are a place to launder money. No one cares. Crook heaven.
We bought a house we couldn't afford almost 20 years ago. We dealt w/ the knob and tube, had some kids, went into debt and felt like we won the lottery. Only well-paid professionals can live here now. No teachers, no nurses, no young people or artists. Just rich people.

This is Doug's fukking nightmare. He hates being hated, he was so jealous that people seemed to like his brother. Once he got booed in public, he has rarely appeared in public since. So if you see the old fukker somewhere, boo him and call him names.

Then run before the OPP disappears you.
Remember, call him "corrupt". He fukking hates it. The truth hurts even a big tub of shitty ham like him, I guess.

Mercedes married Dan Mader in front of all the conservative babadooks. I ignore the propaganda she burbles. From the Pentagon, to lobbyist $$, to true objective reporting on our nation's politics. Dan ran O'Toole's campaign while Mercedes was reporting on it. 🤣🫣 Image

If you don't see the connection between our convoy of bigots and nimrods, and Jan 6th/Russian influence, you're naive. Or you only consume Canadian "news". #onpoli #cdnpoli
You think they spent all those rubles to destabilize the US with Trump's filthy ass, but going to leave us alone up here? With our healthcare and gun control? And oil? And water??
We've got Putin trying to fuck us, and Harper's been lubing this place up for 20 years.

PP's campaign is run by "Canada Proud" aka Jeff Ballingall. They are so good at this fascist/dimwit baiting shit that Harper had them come run a lecture at IDU for the other fascist and aspiring fascist parties around the world.
It wasn't an accident. These skidmarks are pros.
