That's putting a large amount of faith in the intelligence and propaganda-awareness of the average Canadian. I wish I shared his optimism.

I'm thinking of that chart of voters for each Canadian party and what US president they would have voted for. A certain voter base would totally fall for propaganda. (Lost the chart pic, unfortunately)

Was it this image?

I wish there was a breakdown by province for the Atlantic provinces, I highly doubt NB (where I'm from) would skew that highly Democrat if grouped by itself. Damned small sample sizes! :P Interesting graph, in any case!

That's a big ask for the likes of Premier Smith who had just invited the Putin propagandist.

The lesson to be learned from that whole ordeal is that letting the Speaker bring whoever to present to Parliament without any checking is probably a bad idea.

Canadians are only fooled by Rogers, Bell & Telus. And then Loblaws.

When the right-wing across the world is cashing Russian cheques, and support for Russia is becoming a right-wing shibboleth, this is asking a lot.

And frankly, this would come across with a lot more authenticity from someone who doesn't have callouses on his butt from sitting so hard on the fence vis a vis Israel.

Unrelated, I just wanted to thank you @grte@lemmy.ca for feeding the Canadian Lemmy communities with great content. :)

Canada? Is that the old name for the land that turned into a Chinese property investment scheme?
