      Already happening. Where do you think the seppies are getting their funding and propaganda?

    Oh fuck me.

    Pay the fuck attention, everyone who is not a unitedstatesian: my government can do this to anyone at this point. This is effectively the closest, most intimate US ally for about a century. This is the target we are talking about. The damage being done with this is real. Trust is being destroyed, permanently. Treat our government with real caution.

    After seeing that Facebook is blocking advertisements and interfering with elections in Brazil, I wonder how much Meta and its services are impacting Canadian Elections. This article doesn’t speak to what Fréchette’s specific concerns were, but I’m wondering if it is social media related.

    Time to close the border. No Americans going north. No Canadians going south.

    A US right wing think thank wrote a paper saying it might be a good idea to give money to separatists with the goal of destabilizing Canada. That’s it.

    This is far from actual election interference.
