    I’m getting them in the States. I have a Tampa, Florida area code but live in Seattle. Whatever chaos-death-engine these parties use cares nothing for us.

      We do not have them in Québec, mostly because CON is a lost cause here, and anyway they would write SMS in english, it’s an automatic red flag here to receive SMS in english.

      Jesus Christ seriously? I live in Alberta and I don’t get them anymore. I tell them off incredibly rudely every time and they’ve stopped for the last few elections.

    “I am not a fascist, a bigot, or an authoritarian. I do not want Canada to become the 51st state. I do not want to destroy the last public broadcaster in Canada. As such, Conservatives are the last party I would ever vote for.”

    I end up on lists if I reply. “I’m more likely to shoot him than vote for him.”

        Ah, I didn’t realize that “Con” meant “conservative”! I thought “Con” meant “scam”.

    I have been contacted by Conservatives exactly 3 times. Each time, I tell them to go fuck themselves. Haven’t heard from them in years.

    To be fair, I’ve gotten texts from/for both Liberals and Conservatives.
