$SPOUSE points out that by acknowledging the other fourteen candidates, people might wonder why their vote for them doesn't count, and might spur on calls for #ProportionalRepresentation.

And that, in turn, would probably result in having some of those fourteen candidates and parties elected in the future. Which would upset the establishment. So the establishment chooses to deny them and all voters the right to an informed choice at the polls.

Yes, it would take a long time to get all the questions and answers from eighteen candidates. Yes, it would be unwieldy to have all eighteen candidates on camera. Yes, it would be expensive to rent a venue to accommodate all eighteen candidates.

But democracy has never been quick, easy, or cheap.

I'm annoyed, as always, that the debate host said "There are four candidates in the race..."

There are *eighteen* candidates in the race! This is where democracy dies, when the media does not respect the electoral process and does not invite all candidates to an "All-Candidate Debate".

There are now 14 registered candidates for the #Kitchener Centre provincial byelection, plus one who's declared but is as yet unregistered. There may be a few more registrations before Wednesday, when registrations close.

Candidates for smaller parties are declaring their candidacy and registering for the Kitchener Centre byelection. I expect there will be a small deluge just before nominations close on 16 November.

I've got a candidate list with social media accounts and contact information, the easier to compare & contrast their platforms and positions.

I think if we want more honesty & integrity in Ontario politics, it won't be from either Ford's corrupt government or the morally bankrupt #ontarioliberals. And do I really have to mention #BobRae?

Instead, I think we need more #OntarioGreens elected to Queen's Park like #AislynnClancy in #KitCen.
