Open to tampering, votes lost in the mail, etc. So it's a risky method.

It's a system that works if the players are honouring the rules.

Voter apathy is already a problem. Not being impacted directly by your vote can make it easier to not vote. You have to already care to keep it up.

Saw your reply after I commented to someone else.

Yes, they can but there are some issues. 1 not being there makes it easier to miss voting deadlines, not really be aware of issues & candidates.

Ave could be cut off. Even if they didn't though, mail-in votes across borders have an increased risk of tampering, getting lost, etc.

So it's not like they couldn't vote (for now) but it decreases the chances they will or their vote will count.

Yes-ish πŸ˜…

Ex-pats face extra challenges.

For example, voting apathy is chronic. Not being located in the country makes it easier to feel disconnected, miss deadlines, not be really aware of issues/candidates.

Then the current admin is trying to block mail-in voting. If successful that... /1

Fmr reporter here; that's a valid observation. Many news consumers, academics, researchers & generally people who pay attention then do more digging rather than just running a headline or "I heard from a friend of a friend."

Seeing more toxic accounts lately though 😞 gotta fight to keep it critical

What really sucks about so many Americans leaving is it means less voters around to effectively change resulting in this shitshow lasting much longer than it should.

I believe voting is vital but I grew up in a religion that abstained from voting so not sure I agree with compulsory voting. There are those who have religious abstention.

That said, voting apathy is destroying democracy in every country. So I agree it's a problem we can't ignore.

Apologies for my fellow Canadian being a douchcanoe. I’ve had a similar argument with some Americans.

The cheating along with sabotage (ballots found ditched) & voter intimidation was documented.

There are cases still making their way thru the court system challenging election breaches.

Interesting take. Canada entered both world wars before the U.S., historically repelled every invasion attempt, & hasn’t followed them into every conflict.

Education’s a beautiful thing, it's another area where we tend to edge ahead.

I respect you, but why are you perpetuating the propaganda that Noem has been "fired" when she was reassigned? It's the same play thr Catholic Church used to moved problematic priests it wanted to keep but lower the temp on.

Anyone saying she was fired is helping polish the Trump admin image.

Hope Americans refuse to join their war so they'll be forced to pull from "patriotic" police & ICE agents instead.

Fewer local security = more opportunities to raid the billionaires resources & share the wealth.

- the case, it's attitude.

Many male politicians insisting they know what's best for women shows they still hold women in a low regard, viewing us as stupid, subservient & incapable of making our own choices. Their attitude doesn't match their words.

Drainville doesn't support gender equality.

Easy for men to say they haven't seen sexist or misogynistic behaviour, they're usually not as aware of it. It's why often white people often miss racial aggression from others.

Women in QC are still treated abhorrently. I used to think it was the church influence, its decline shows that's not...

Three Australians were on US submarine that sank Iranian warship, PM says Anthony Albanese confirms ADF members were on vessel but says β€˜no Australian personnel’ took part in attacks on Iran

The US pulled out of a intl training exercise last min which included the Iranian ship it torpedoed; that ship had no weapons because it was training.

There were Australians on board the US ship

The US acts without considering anyone else & violates rules of war & the Geneva convention.

This framing around DHS Sec. Kristi Noem being "fired" is false.

Think. Who is fired with weeks left to serve (her last day is March 31) & a new job with their employer? πŸ™„

She's being reshuffled.
Donald is trying to distance himself from her acts which he approved.
The Republicans were aware.

For wider media, it really sucks but world events have shifted & it's hard to make space.

I'm sorry they're still there. I saw a video the other day that looked like the police were aggressively taking down peaceful protesters. Just pointless aggression.

Keep talking & posting πŸ’ͺ

As a former reporter help reporters out by sending them correct info which includes details, dates, locations, etc & proof (photo, vids, other wittnesses who are willing to be interviewed).

If the DHS & other authorities are denying, it's hard to go to print.

Stop condescending Canadians expressing concerns about Carney's statements. We're in a time when words matter, some sides are making up their own rules & "normal" isn't normal any longer.

Questioning leadership is healthy & expressing your expectations as a citizen is a right.

If you want to show your support buy Canadian πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ plus you'll enjoy better food standards.
