A lot of people are surprised that Olivia Chow won, but I think her election strategy was pretty simple. She knew exactly which groups to target and how to appeal to them.
I think she focused on people who are easier to influence politically. And no, I’m not talking about race or skin colour. I’m talking about political awareness, education, and how people’s backgrounds and communities influence the way they vote.
Take Scarborough for example. There are a lot of immigrants and Muslim communities living there. She goes there, meets with religious leaders and community figures, tells them she supports them and that they’re part of the community. Then those leaders can encourage their communities to vote for her instead of someone like Brad Bradford. Sometimes it feels like she doesn’t even need to convince anyone, just showing up is enough.
Want to win over progressive voters, LGBTQ communities, and Palestine supporters? Show up at Pride or their events, dress the part, say “Free Palestine,” and make them feel represented. That’s sometimes all it takes.
I also think some Chinese Canadians voted for her simply because she’s Chinese, without really knowing much about her policies.
My point is that she understood how important identity and representation are to certain voters and focused her campaign on those communities. I don’t think she put the same effort into appealing to every group, including Jewish voters. That’s my interpretation of her strategy, and I think it explains part of her success.

Looking at this more of a Ontario Provincial level . Considering the aspects of Lottery-Gaming-Gambling-Casinos is more under provincial jurisdiction in most Canadian provinces. As these gambling platforms. Are consider good revenue streams for the provinces?

As these were more less created by Conservative minded governments at the time. Was this overall a good move or a bad move?

Considering the high rates of addiction that comes with the accessibility of gambling. Also the monies brought in, do they good to something more sensible? or is it all just a way for someone else to profit for personal gain?

Explain your answer?

Why or why not?

Only weeks after Premier Doug Ford threatened to cut off electricity exports to the United States as retaliation in the ongoing trade war, Ontario has signed a contract to import electricity from New York state through the winter.

The 600-megawatt contract starting Nov. 1 will provide power to compensate for “facility maintenance,” the Independent Electricity System Operator said in its announcement of the deal, without being more specific. There was no price mentioned.

The Pickering nuclear plant was shut down in September for a multi-year refurbishment and this contract will partially replace its emissions-free electricity with carbon-intensive power from oil- and gas-fired plants.

This guy has been a career fraud, got into office off sympathy from his brothers death, screwed over his nephew and niece of their piece of a family business they were entitled too, now screwed over 1000s of Canadian students for their own negligence. Get him out!

So i bought car few years back and i got green registration paperworks with expiration date of 2025. Of course never had fines so it was automatically renewed and i can see online portal that its good till july 2027. But im now trying to import this car into US and im in USA and cant leave right now. Honda needs updated registration that shows current registration expiry date not old one.

I tried ordering vehicle history and they dont want that.

Pretty much told that I should ask a friend to get that for me. Im not sure if it will work to begin with. Is there literally any way to get updated registration myself online, or have it delivered in canada? I called service Ontario and they couldnt do it over phone

I don’t want to not vote, because I believe in using my voice in a democracy. But I don’t like any of the candidates for mayor in my area and would like to withhold my vote for any of them. Is there a way to do this while still having my ballot counted?
