Frankly, he is about the last person I'd want to give me a reference.

I would do the same. In fact, I did in our last provincial election. It really distresses me that increasingly this is how we seem to cast our votes.

Glad you are here. It is a little hard to know who is here already, and to connect with them. @thevicwinnipeg.bsky.social is here though! 👍

Kudos to you for doing the right thing. Similar story: my daughter had a job interview, woke up with COVID symptoms (tested + the next day), asked to reschedule and was told no. That day or no interview. No offer of virtual. My takeaway: this is probably not a place you want to work anyway.
