you want to make a difference go loving volunteer in the constituency you were elected in, gently caress me, you're using the tax free money you're earning from public funds to fly to another country and campaign, how do you reason this in your head and go, yep, this sounds like a great idea what could go wrong

I wish I was as naive as the rest of you, believing that the US politicians and corporations have zero interest in Canadian politics and thus spend no effort on influencing peoples decisions at election time. No, the Liberals won a majority on hard work and good policy. Also this is a really stupid thing to get mad about.

Pinterest Mom posted:Peter Julian and Alexandre Boulerice are both pretty cool. Boulerice is definitely running, PJ might. Hmm. Looks like Peter Julian has an interesting resume. Didn't realize he had a pivotal role in the Transport Canada fight around substituting Safety Management Systems for actual aircraft safety enforcement. Gotta love SMSs. "Here's a wall full of paper that shows we're safe. No need for Labour Canada inspectors to check that we're actually doing any of this. You can go ahead and fire them all, or at least restrict them to their offices." See also: Pipelines, Oil Tankers. That's one thing that changed significantly over my career in Health and Safety. I started out trusting, then moved to trust & verify, then said "gently caress it" and just verified.

Its illegal here too but that didnt stop Koch money from finding its way to the Conservative coffers or Citizens United from Also the NDP has nothing to worry about here because they know they blew their only chance to stay relevant on a former Liberal centrist who will probably gently caress back off to the Liberal party before the next election.

I mean to be fair, the American government affects our lives about as much as our own does. They're probably doing more good trying to get someone who's not an actual monster elected in America than they would be by bashing their heads against the wall that is trying to get something positive accomplished in Canada.

They're literally doing zero good by getting involved with American campaigns, not to mention breaking the law if they donate. So no, it's not better.

The point of the last election is that the Conservatives are 1) a bit too suspicious of foreigners and 2) a bit too heavy handed to wholesale sell out the country. Fortunately the Liberals are here to trick low-info voters into thinking they've chosen a "progressive" government. The Liberals will sell policies that the Conservatives could never dream of getting away with:quote:Glavin: The Liberals are being shifty about China We're going to sell our natural resources to the actual economies of the world for dirt cheap and our reward will be the new global oligarchy treating our real estate as their private savings accounts, pricing us out of our own cities.

The law prohibiting Canadians from influencing american elections is for all intents and purposes unenforceable. It is a bad law for this reason. You can argue it is poor form and manners for a Canadian politician, but the whole thing seems absurd based on all the things we know about american involvement in foreign elections in TYOOL 2016. So maybe get off your high horses and move on?
