  • Canada Post needed

    If Canada looks South, many in the US want future hand counts in elections because of interference through tech via corrupt actors.

    Mail is another example of this as Trump needed to ruin mail systems in IS to undermine vote by mail.

    What happens in US, often comes North. Don’t let tech and oligarchs take over control!!
