That still doesn't account for the roughly 40% of votes that went to him during the election.
I think foreign interference was real and quite pervasive, but people didn't realise it was foreign interference because it was so blatant. I mean, most of the big social media companies are owned by far right US companies, and all private Canadian news outlets are owned by far rights as well. And every single one of those touted far right rhetoric constantly with almost no left representation.
Hell, just ask the average Canadian where they get their Canadian news, and I'll bet a third will say Facebook, despite Meta banning Canadian news from the platform because they didn't want to pay taxes.
Yeah. I get what you're saying now. Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were saying that the only reason Liberals won was because of foreign interference on their behalf.
Yes, I know very well how pervasive right wing misinformation is. I live in a part of Canada that is surrounded by it. (Saskatchewan).
I wasn't the one you originally responded to, but I do appreciate the acknowledgement.
And yea, I wish more people in Saskatchewan thought for themselves and the alignment of their interests verses those around them. Especially when Alberta keeps treating your province like their little brother and drags you guys through all their shit. I mean, they keep going "Oil Oil Oil" and yet Saskatchewan isn't even a major producer. The province has completely different strengths yet so many are content blindly following Alberta, and Alberta taking that sentiment entirely for granted.
I get that you guys have the same "not being heard" issues, and can feel it since I hear so little being an Ontarian myself. Just wish that sometimes when I hear anything about Saskatchewan, Alberta isn't in the same sentence.
