  2. #MarkCarney is attempting to force #Canadians into a “let the motherfucker burn” moment in regards to #climatechange and our country’s response.

    Turncoat #Liberals and their supporting #Corporations are tripling down on #climatedestruction with new #pipelines, #aidatacenters, and #LNG, despite the majority of Canadians opposing abandoning our climate goals.

    After all our work fighting Climate Change, Corporate propaganda now tells us “It’s inevitable, get used to it”.

    What’s made clear is that the #economy means more to corporate owned politicians than our communities or our votes.

    Ultimately, #Corporatism will rule over the people’s interest, no matter how much our communities will pay.

    These #neocon #CarneyLiberals gave strategic voters in #cdnpoli exactly what we voted against, a conservative agenda.

    This is political fraud, yet few seem to notice due to Carney’s #ShockDoctrine threat of a racist, fascist old fart who will be dead in a year or two.

    Carney’s #Liberals are #traitors to our country and this #earth, every single one of them. Vote them all out.

  8. "Wyoming’s bill has the potential to be the next great innovation in American government. PR could improve the representative nature of our state governments and allow voters to express their preferences more effectively on local issues. While there is no one-size-fits-all solution for a country as large as the U.S., other states would be wise to learn from Wyoming’s foray into this promising territory."

    If #Wyoming gets #ProportionalRepresentation before #California we're going to flip out. Still cool though. #LaboratoriesOfDemocracy #ElectionReform

  9. Great interview with our friends at More Equitable Democracy about election reform. "Too many times we have seen top-down campaigns. Some politically savvy organization says, 'This is the right solution. How do we get people of color on board? Let's hire an outreach person!' People of color are not stupid, and they want to be part of the decisions being made. "

  14. Gerrymandering or not, however you slice it, this does not change my view that drawing districts ought to be a process left to independent commissions based on as transparent and nonpartisan a methodology as possible. The United Kingdom knows better than to have politicians pick voters, as does even Brazil.
