Greenland plans to ban foreign political funding over Trump-led election fears
-
I really do think that a war of bald faced imperial oligarchic aggression would trigger the collapse of the union.
-
A non-serious campaign could use those funds to enrich themselves/others even with approved activities. They could pay for staff, buy signs, etc. and all those people & businesses would make money doing legitimate work for a campaign whose only purpose was to employ those people/businesses.
-
Not if staff and signs were only provided by the government.

Fair point, I assumed we were talking about US even though that wasn't strictly specified. I'm not Canadian so you probably know more than I would, but I'm pretty sure Canada has it's own systemic problems.

They also should block Xitter altogether.
-
Everyone should.
-
Every country should just make the USA illegal. Nothing specific, just the USA in general.
-
This should be banned everywhere by default.
Completely fucked the USA, and it'll do the same anywhere else it's not explicitly made illegal.
-
Funny that when Georgia does it, it's anti-democratic.

Pull your tongue out of Putin's arse.
Dogs do that.

Well, the article's about Greenland, but I guess Ameri-centrism is par for the course.
I’m pretty sure Canada has it’s own systemic problems.
Sure, but we have rules that don't allow donations foreign sources or companies, and pretty reasonable limits for individuals. We have definitely had donation scandals, but they've almost exclusively been because people are breaking the rules.

TBH, that sounds even worse, and I am saying this as a fan of big government.
-
Foreign and corporate. Anything over $2000 from an entity.
-
We need this in Canada
