O'toole doesn't strike me as anything other than a milqetoast Conservative, however they certainly have someone in their communication department (and elsewhere I presume) that is 100% a Nazi.

The prize is living in Haldimand-Norfolk, congratulations.

I remember when that was a Liberal riding and even had a cabinet minister in the Martin government. There used to be NDP and Liberal MPPs in that area in the past too.

The conservatives out there were super pissed about Leslyn Lewis being parachuted into the riding by the party leadership. Maybe pissed off enough for them to lose there, though I doubt that.

I've been thinking the same thing. My big brain has also been telling me that the dogwhistles are going to get bolder and more overt as the campaign continues, because the Conservatives are looking for a reason to make this election about "cancel culture" and "wokeness," and getting called out for racism over counting words will fit the bill nicely.

My big brain is an imperfect muscle, but that's what it's telling me.

I deplore violent protest and stand for prosecuting criminal behaviour. However, I see in this country the slow erosion of debate and the quashing of alternative views by labelling them fringe.

I’m not an anti-vaxxer, an Islamaphobe or a climate change denier. Yet, I’m going to vote Conservative because I object to the quality of leadership and the diminished credibility of this government. I’m a situational voter and while no leader’s platform is perfectly aligned to my hopes for this country, I am hopeful that a change will moderate the “woke” forces that have driven this PM’s agenda.

The 14 words thing is on purpose, not because they're Nazis, but because they're practically begging their opponents to bring it up, and then be able to paint them as a bunch of unreasonable, paranoid lunatics making a big deal about the number of words in a sentence.

I feel like making a large fuss about it in mainstream channels would be playing straight into their hands. The people who would be disturbed by it already know about it, no one else is going to give a poo poo.

That's my take too. O'Toole is a soft useless goob who's just a distracting figurehead for all the actually dangerous people who are going to roll into power with him and his doughy Trojan Horse.

The problem is, it is the responsibility of journalism to point it out from the sidelines, though they likely won't. The CPC want another party to do it, to show them as pedants, over-worried with form over function. Just like with the spelling error filled pamphlet that would get a professional designer fired for not noticing. It's obvious ploy tactics.

EDIT: I went through journalism post sec. Got my piece of paper and never entered the field because the whole thing is a shitshow and every bit of my education catered to keeping it that way.

If only journalists dug deeper and provided both the thing and the reasoning behind it in a well-thought-out package.

Fed NDP has been calling me, I'll chip in like 20$ at some point I think soon, I'm trying to pay off my credit card debt and got serious about it enough to get a loan to lower the interest so I can't spare a whole lot.

I guess it depends on how important it is, but I would prioritize credit card debt over giving any sort of donations. Like, take care of your own poo poo first.

They will never do that. Normal people are not aware of things like the 14 words, or 14-88 in general. Any politician that brings up the similarities in "Secure the Future" will look like a lunatic conspiracy theorist. It's way too easy to write off as coincidence.
It is not viable (as a candidate) to accuse a party of being nazis unless they're literally calling themselves the nazi party.

poo poo, I’m still pissed off that back when the Harper government was claiming a coalition government was illegal under our parliamentary system, the CBC was running segments like “is this illegal? We’re taking your calls now, tell us your opinion” instead of doing their jobs, and telling us if it was legal or not.
