I'm all for leaving twitter, but if I could increase my work's user base by 1%, that would be massive, and easily worth months of my time.

Agreed. There's also the national unity angle. Maybe Pierre doesn't deserve it. But why stoke division further than we already are?
I was happy to see Carney signal he'd expedite a byelection if that's what they want. Letting PP stay is a similar gesture of good will at a time we need to be united.

Matt Strauss deserves to lose. Just listen to doctors who had to work with him before he destroyed his career in medicine to be a pro-virus social media contrarian: www.panaccindex.info/p/profile-po...

I've seen this compared to other acts of civil disobedience. But in other cases the act itself somehow furthers the cause.
E.g red paint on the statue raises awareness of past atrocities.
In this case the act.. Makes it harder for people to vote? That's the exact opposite of the goal. Do better.

"I have received $0 from Elon Musk" answers nothing. His lawyers would have received the payment(s) for one. X would have sent the payment(s) for another.
His lawsuit is ongoing, is he *still* receiving financial aid? So many questions that need some investigative journalism.

No argument here! Greens shouldn't have mislead the commission, and commission should have dropped them as soon as the candidate list was finalized. Egg on both their faces.

Greens shouldn't have been invited in the first place, but commission allowed it on a technicality. Then they changed their mind due to pushback. My point is kicking them out same day is very unprofessional.
Keep in mind they knew exactly how many candidates the greens had Apr 7th.

This is a risk, but also an opportunity.
The desire for proportional representation has never been higher. If the Liberals get a fourth term, folks from the left and the right will be wanting it.
Combined with a leader who is an outsider.. Not saying it'll happen, but the ingredients are there.

I agree with all that. I just think it's possible to do this in a way that doesn't build ill will.
The vote for Conan the Barbarian signs in Yellowknife come to mind.
