Only those that have no civics knowledge, some of us know who is in charge of what

Which is sadly the majority of the population.

It is too bad that education is so stigmatized that many people give up learning after, or even during, their school years. I never had a real civics class in school here in Ontario, there were teeny tiny bits handed out in different classes but never had a full on civics class, I learned what our govt levels were and weren't responsible for. When I get angry about something I prefer to get angry at the correct person/thing. So I knew that when we were occupied illegally for 3 weeks that they were angry at Dougie not trudie, they were clueless

Was saddened to hear all the voters interviewed in the BC provincial election voting conservative because they wanted Trudeau out. WTF?!?

Unfortunately, having no civics knowledge does not disqualify a person from voting. If it did, Ford would have been out a couple of elections ago.

Many people kept blaming Trudeau for the housing crisis when in reality, provincial and municipal politics/decisions effect housing a lot more than the feds do.
