    This is absolutely the case, and oppositions parties need to make an investigation into this a priority.https://twitter.com/LukewSavage/status/1440154708514009089 …

    The stories I'm hearing about hours'-long lines in Toronto are completely unprecedented in my lifetime. If a CPC govt had ignored Election's Canada recommendations & presided over this, you can bet we'd be hearing phrases like "US-style voter suppression" right now and rightly so

        Heard CBC say the voting line at UBC was over 3 hours long. Definitely needed more polling stations all across the country.

        Also Elections Canada website had issues. It would just report an error when I entered my postal code trying to find my polling station yesterday and today. Ended up having to call.

        Liberals introduced C-19 to help make things run more efficiently in the event of a pandemic election. The Conservatives used procedural tricks to prevent it from being debated 3 times and dragged out debate another 4 times. Conservatives stalled it at every opportunity. https://twitter.com/davidakin/status/1439990051727888389 …

        People could have voted 7 days a week for the last 2 weeks with no lines. Info on returning offices and advance polls last weekend are easy to find.

        Why? Élections Canada warned this would happen. Not remotely surprising.

        Should anyone be forced to wait hours to vote? No. Could these people have gone on any of the multiple advance days or mailed in a ballot? Yes. It’s not some conspiracy

        Long lines simply a consequence of pandemic protocols which kept schools unavailable as polling stations.
