It's obviously a joint. This is Canada after all.

As someone who lives in poverty thanks to my fellow Canadians not standing up for people like me and ignoring the issues that affect my family the most, I will continue to add that first Nations, minorities and people with disabilities live in a fascist state right now in Canada. No matter the government and that needs to change. Now.

Only the people of the country standing up to the parties and politicians will change this. As you have pointed out electoral reform is already supported by the vast majority of Canadians and has a very strong voice that keeps getting stronger. It is a major issue for many Canadians as it should be.

Who mentions the first Nations and the disabled when they speak or act within our government? Who is fighting for the rights of those with the smallest voices? How many Canadians even know these issues exist for us? Who feeds my kids when I cannot because my government and the people of my country couldn't care less about us the most vulnerable members of your society?

This doesn't need to be a single issue win but if we make it that, we ensure the country continues down a path towards fascism and American style politics no matter the reform to our voting system. You get your single issue reform and the country keeps on ticking like it always has. Smashing the little guy into bits. People matter. If you watch the Americans right now they're at one another's throats. We aren't far off that in our own country. Stand up for the little guy while you fight your major battles.

That's Canadian.

Bruce Fanjoy is just a likeable guy too. The best kind to upset starchy pants.

It's a short list on my part. I have some "pet" issues that dominate my life because of my personal experiences that simply don't make headlines and are lesser known issues. I openly admit that.

Bet that's what Houston is up to with his pal Dougie. Timmy boy is well known for saying his party is not the same as the federal conservatives. Hint though: they are, just more subtle about it mostly.

I disagree with that second bit.

We need to fight to make as many citizens as possible choose Canada over a party. This divisive political party bullshit gets us nowhere. Even the cons. It's American politics and it can go back where it came from.

I remember my parents and grandparents having political conversations with their friends. They didn't always agree that is certain. There were some heated debates as well as some quiet times of contemplation. They discussed it and allowed one another to voice their political opinions without making it a personal fight.

We need that again. I'm 50 and I couldn't do that with anyone I know that has different political beliefs than me, which is pretty much everyone.

And as a disabled Canadian I live under a fascist regime who wants me dead. I can MAID any time I like but I live in abject poverty and so does my family. First Nations people...the same except our government actively tries to exterminate them while keeping them in poverty and fighting against their rights enshrined by law when they attempt to change their financial standing. Foreign workers doing our shit jobs for minimum wage and getting stomped and shit on by corporate olygarchs serve you coffee, gas and food every single day.

How about everyone gets a fair go please.

We still have a lot of work to do. We aren't blameless nor are our political parties. All of them.

Now it's time to get on the MP's to make some changes. Don't stop now. No matter what party. We need to ensure our government does better in regards to First Nations, minorities and the disabled. As well as electoral reform.

Depose your dictator.

Canada is about to vote on the 28th. We have a baby fascist druphkin sympathizer too.

They need someone to blame. Come on now.
