"Double vaxxed, dont need a mask" doesn't really fly as an excuse when entering a store, so I can't fault someone for being a little bit "wtf" about a person cooking their food and/or 10ft away from the people that do interact with, not wearing a mask. That said Arc Hammer posted:Working back end sucks because it's hot and sweaty enough without a mask. But it's more dumb the person didn't just go somewhere else.

Probably the latter. Unless you're paying attention, most people are probably still planning to vote by brand not for the candidate.

Even if people are paying attention, most people vote for the brand. I heard the election clip trailer on several Bell Media owned radio stations today and they all talked about “voting for who you want to be Prime Minster”. Mr. Apollo fucked around with this message at 02:30 on Sep 20, 2021 |

It would be interesting if Sainin ran independent but they didn't have time to reprint the ballots. As it is, who are Liberal voters in Kitchen Centre even voting for?

Laugh my loving rear end off at the Star's endorsement of the Liberals here:Some probably highly paid editorial fucks posted:The election campaign that ends on Monday has been unnecessary — a $610-million distraction in the middle of the worst public health crisis in a century. The vast majority of Canadians, according to recent polls, do not believe it should have even been called in the first place. What is this tepid poo poo? Well, Trudeau might lie about all of his promises, and the little he has done in the last 6 years is half-assed at best, but it could be worse so... vote?

While I got to vote early due to military stuff, my wife had to wait for her OFFICIAL BALLOT from Elections Canada. Due to European mailing being absolute poo poo, it arrived on Friday. Elections Canada said it has to be received by end of day Monday. This poo poo needs to be fixed and is absolutely appalling. Democracy for some. (Edit: Just through random fluke, we had a friend fly back to Canada on Sunday. He dropped it off express courier that should *maybe* arrive in time)

O'Toole's message on Sunday at the campaign stops was "please don't vote for PPC". I guess they really are a threat to the CPC vote.

Maybe a longer window after Election Day where mail in ballots are accepted or voting at an embassy/consulate?

Peaceful Anarchy posted:It reads like the editorial board said "we want to endorse the NDP" and someone above says, I don't care, write what you want, but you're endorsing the Liberals. Not untrue, the Toronto Star was recently bought out by a hedge fund... So think about that.

Some US states accept ballots postmarked before the election date and/or arriving with some number of days after the election, which seems perfectly reasonable. If you could vote in person at embassies/consulates, why not have them accept mail-in ballots too?

Hizawk posted:The above, and also, this whole internet thing seems pretty neat. for the record, elections canada recognized these and other issues during the early pandemic and asked parliament for a bill to provide them with more funding and some legal changes to ensure access to voting in the case of a pandemic election (knowing that one was likely with a minority parliament) parliament sat on the bill, did nothing with it, and then had a pandemic election anyway in other words, it's not elections canada's fault, they're doing the best they can with their hands literally tied behind their back Arivia fucked around with this message at 06:27 on Sep 20, 2021 |

Lmao the NDP candidate in my riding is the one who dropped out after people saw she tweeted about Israel apparently stealing the state's vaccine supply. I don't know who the gently caress to vote for now. Green, I guess?

Even once the legal side is sorted out, I don’t think the “voluntary” aspect of digital voting is actually the hardest part to solve (as flakeloaf says, the same problem exists with mail-in). I think the problem is actually that it’s very very difficult to build a system that is both validating your identity and also keeping your vote anonymous. Ed. Actually found a good video discussing in more detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkH2r-sNjQs A big part highlighted here is trust in the system itself - you don’t even need to prove something went wrong like a security breach, there just needs to be enough mistrust in the system and you risk election results being hugely controversial. Edit 2 - Estonia is addressed briefly at the 9 minute mark. kaom fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Sep 20, 2021 |

As if tomorrow (or today, if you're reading this on Monday) isn't full of drama as it is, it seems the quiet revolt against Kenney and co. is going to get much louder: https://twitter.com/RogueNerdOne/status/1439719453118197763 It's funny. I was expecting this sort of talk to be delayed until the fall, or to coincide with the winter break. What are the odds Kenney will be facing his own Night of the Long Knives this upcoming week?

That's pretty big, but is it enough to change any results from splitting the vote? I would say no, but also Alberta's seats are irrelevant anyway.

Fidelitious posted:That's pretty big, but is it enough to change any results from splitting the vote? I would say no, but also Alberta's seats are irrelevant anyway. It's impossible to tell. Canada's polling is bad in the first place. But maybe this could swing some of the cities? We don't have granular enough information to get a good idea. It's not like it can get any worse, so anything is a bonus.

Sashimi posted:As horrible as it is to see the chud party set to take a significant portion of the popular vote, I think there's a limit to how much support they can draw if they're the party of anti-vaxxers when the majority of Canadians are fully vaccinated. The problem will be if they can continue to draw voters to them in post-Covid elections and broaden their appeal beyond the most selfish assholes of the country. I agree that they seem to be mostly an rear end in a top hat protest vote right now at least. The other night in Winnipeg I saw a guy with PPC signs taped to the inside of his car and about six Canadian flags attached to this side windows driving about 40k in a 70k zone, honking his horn and cutting people off (there's no way he could really see because he had a huge sign taped across his back window). I'm not sure what he thought he was doing, but I'm pretty sure all of the libs were totally owned. He perfectly confirmed my perception of the average PPC voter. Their slogan should really be "LOOK AT ME!"
