Yes, I’m sure a report will be taken seriously…

I am honestly acting in good faith and taking you seriously right now. If I instead promoted donated money to me directly (which could also be in the same vein of being unrelated discussion), would you have a problem with that? Probably not, but when it's a cause that actually helps Canada (even if it's annoying), then it's a problem? In either case, both (promoting self interests, or proportional representation) would be as obtrusive -- which is not much at all.

Just because it’s popular, doesn’t mean it’s following the rules.

I never suggested popular means following the rules. The point I was making is that while you don't appreciate my content, many others do, so please know that you're not the only person that exists on this community.
