Fellow Canadians, I am begging you to vote in the election this month. Lib , NDP, Bloc whatever. this fascist pricks dreams of being PM need to die here. We’ve seen what happens when you get complacent.
I am begging you to vote in the election this month.
And if you aren’t personally strongly aligned with one of the parties, please vote strategically ABC - anything but conservative.
Remember, the only wasted vote is the one not cast.
Well, let’s make sure lil pp doesn’t get in. In the terrible event that he does, one can hope our legal system doesn’t fold.
Everybody, it’s time to check your voter registration.
Yes, but also please understand that registering to vote directly at the polling station is ridiculously easy. Even if you forgot to update your registration, go vote anyway, it’ll only take an extra few minutes.
Either way you do need ID to vote but what qualifies as ID is anything from an absolutely enormous list of options, including, if need be, just having someone else vouch for you.
See the full list here: https://www.elections.ca/content2.aspx?section=id&document=index&lang=e
Also of note;
- Polling places open several days ahead of the election.
- You can already - as in right now - go vote early at any elections Canada office.
- Your place of work is legally required to give you time off to vote if none of those other options work for you.
Please, please, please, do not get caught up in the Americanification of all online discourse. Voting in Canada is unbelievably easy.
And our health insurance.

Canada, take care of your garbage.
What’s happening in the US should be a cautionary tale for you.
We’re trying, but cold Texas keeps fucking things up
Regardless of the polling numbers. Dont forget to VOTE!!
You can vote most days at most Elections Canada Offices across Canada before April 22nd. There’s also the advanced polling days as well and other ways to vote.

Already done cuz, registered to vote from abroad. Hopefully my ballot will be arriving in the next day or two!
Many voting places are open over Easter weekend too.
Between this and his tough on crime nonsense, it feels like Poilievre has given up on winning anyone over and is just trying to hang on to his base. Which is a weird thing to do when your base wasn’t enough to win the last election, but whatever.
It’s enough to grift and we know PP has never held a real job
The US is proof enough already. No need to FAFO with these fascist fucks. They will not help you or anyone you know.
Keep on going, Poppinfresh. You’re already polling well behind in your own damn riding and will likely lose your seat completely.
But sure…let’s just keep paddling that Trump canoe regardless of the fact that the Trump brand has been suicide for anyone who is not Trump (because happily it seems the rest of the world is still slightly intelligent)
This is precisely why I know he’s bought and paid for by the same people who got Trump, Modi, Meili, etc… into power in their own respective countries; because ANY actual politician would immediately serve their own self-interest and decry Trump in order to help him with victory. In fact that’s what the rift in the Conservative party is all about right now; his own Conservative leadership is telling him to do exactly that on the campaign trail and he refuses. Why?
Because it’s his job to be a Trump enabler, not a politician. He was Shenaniganned into the Conservative leadership role for precisely that reason; not to run the country, but to act as a surrogate for the same cabal of rich people who pull Trump’s strings.
We’ve got one of these Trump copies trying for the top job, in Australia, too. I’m genuinely worried.
Stop the thumb!
Speaking while campaigning in an Ottawa district—where he is running against Liberal Party leader and Prime Minister Mark Carney
That is wrong on so many levels.
Yeah, they are in different ridings, though they are adjacent.
Is this his latest effort to convince us he’s not like Trump?
At some point, if we aren’t already there, the tactic might be to recognize that the ship is sinking (or be pleasantly surprised it floats) and front-run another con to denounce PP to have the next election campaigning on “I was the only con who stood against PP, who lost such an incredible lead over the libs”. I’ve thought it for a bit, and seeing Ford being so vocal against PP now terrifies me given he keeps getting elected in Ontario somehow. I’m not very tuned in politically so I have no idea if this is something thay might happen, but I feel like we need a big push for “Strategic voting BUT let your liberal MPs know that you urge election reform” from day one, every day, until the next election.
Plugging !fairvote@lemmy.ca for anyone who cares about election reform
As a lifelog NDP voter I will be voting Liberal this federal election. Let’s not be complacent like the americans in their last (last?) election.
CANADA DOESN’T NEED A SMALL pp
Surely this will make him tank the election?!?
You don’t need to vote Conservative or Liberal. Just vote for NDP.
This is wrong! Unless you are OK with letting the country become a reactionary vassal state of the US empire, we need to vote strategically. First check whether your riding needs strategic voting (or via https://smartvoting.ca/ or https://www.strategicvoting.ca/, and you can cross check with your preferred polling reports – e.g. https://338canada.com/). If it does not, only then vote for whoever without throwing your vote away.
We need a progressive coalition.
Just vote for NDP.
Yess. Hey, if you can get Canada to split the vote with our own Jagmeet version of Stein, do you get paid in Rubles or Greenbacks?
That’s a silly american-centric way of understanding Canadian politics. There are ridings where the LPC is the spoiler in an NDP-CPC race or in a BQ-CPC race. Use your brain, don’t parrot Americanisms.
The NDP are more likely to win than the Liberals in some ridings, it’s not comparable to the US where any vote not for one of the main two is wasted.
