i once corrected a guy on the proper pronunciation of the canadian city regina and he said “that’s a lie, god would never have allowed that to happen”

SO EXCITED FOR THIS & for everyone who gets to have a hardcover if they came to the book post 2019!!

The most consequential election of our lifetimes was when we elected a Liberal gov who promised to get rid of FPTP, which would've ensured we never again had to fear a Con majority gov despite them getting a minority of the vote. If they'd followed through, we would actually own our democracy.
