It's scary still because this guy hasn't had much national exposure. People don't know him and from the outside he looks fucking great in comparison to ~smol pp~....he isn't.

To add to this...

Tim Houston needs to be watched. He has attempted to pass laws in Nova Scotia that give hiring and firing power of the auditor generals office to the sitting government. That is one of, if not the highest check in our provincial government. Here is what happened when Nova Scotians heard this...

He also has said openly and proudly in the legislature as premier of Nova Scotia:

“I don’t know many Nova Scotians that grow up thinking, ‘Boy, I hope I make minimum wage when I grow up.’ That’s not the way people think, they want real jobs,"

Hear that? Real jobs. Class war is the real war!

Scream it out with me kids

THAT'S FASCISM AND WE DON'T WANT IT!!

This guy is vying for power of a major political party in our country. Join the conservative party even if they don't agree with you. Have a voice who gets to head the party.

Old guy here.

Yes. Yes we did.

Houston is channelling an old switchboard operator today. I'd put money on it.

It's obviously a joint. This is Canada after all.

As someone who lives in poverty thanks to my fellow Canadians not standing up for people like me and ignoring the issues that affect my family the most, I will continue to add that first Nations, minorities and people with disabilities live in a fascist state right now in Canada. No matter the government and that needs to change. Now.

Only the people of the country standing up to the parties and politicians will change this. As you have pointed out electoral reform is already supported by the vast majority of Canadians and has a very strong voice that keeps getting stronger. It is a major issue for many Canadians as it should be.

Who mentions the first Nations and the disabled when they speak or act within our government? Who is fighting for the rights of those with the smallest voices? How many Canadians even know these issues exist for us? Who feeds my kids when I cannot because my government and the people of my country couldn't care less about us the most vulnerable members of your society? Who cares for their health needs because I can no longer can?Who makes sure they grow up healthy and strong and smart and not a drain on society as a whole? Me. But I can't do that because I live below poverty for a single individual in my province but I have 3 kids simply because I developed an illness that broke my body.

This doesn't need to be a single issue win but if we make it that, we ensure the country continues down a path towards fascism and American style politics no matter the reform to our voting system. You get your single issue reform and the country keeps on ticking like it always has. Smashing the little guy into bits. That's fascism and it's as much a part of our country as it is the Americans we deride so much.

People matter. If you watch the Americans right now they're at one another's throats. We aren't far off that in our own country. Stand up for the little guy while you fight.

That's Canadian.

Bruce Fanjoy is just a likeable guy too. The best kind to upset starchy pants.
