Election Information

I recommend that you check the links yourself! I've copied some of the information below:

Ways to vote

See this page for full details.

Vote on election day (April 28)

Vote by mail

Special Ballots

Remember: Once you apply to vote by special ballot, you can't change your mind and vote at advance polls or on election day.

See this page for deadlines for when you can apply for one, and when they must receive it by. It also has information on what you must do differently when filling out this ballot: https://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=vote&dir=spe&document=index&lang=e

If you are having any issues, reach out to your local Elections Canada office to know your options.

Oh yeah, to be clear if the libs win delay is absolutely the key word here. They won't do shit to fight fascism so it's up to the few that give a fuck to do it.

I suspect a lot of pivotal things will happen in the next 4 years. The fascists are at the point where they actually have to put things into practice, and that's what brought them down the last time around. This election is just the first example.

So, maybe it's not just a delay? Fingers crossed.

If it's a minority government, the conservatives are going to be the opposition and they're going to block everything.

They might still have to make a coalition with the NDP but most importantly, the Bloc québécois.

I really expect the NDP will be up for it. The Bloc might be dicier. ATM they still haven't called a minority so I have a feeling the NDP will suffice.

Hoping for some kind of Conservative participation is a pipe dream, though, you're right about that. I haven't even heard it discussed.

They've adopted the republicans' scummy ways since Harper. And it intensified during this election. We had social media influence to thank as well.

It's up to us to demand that they fight it

Like actually though. Make them listen. Organize and withhold labour until we get PR and advances made against online hate speech.
