#fedi #punk

I would like to know what my @… looks like!
(it's gonna generate me a treat of people I interact with on Fedi!? Cool!)
#Fedi #Fediverse

Things #fedi will probably hate me for (part 731):
Putting the Apollo 440 song "Stop the Rock" in your head... With the lyrics
"Stop the Slop. You can stop the Slop."

Hey fedi 👋🏻
I guess I'll take a break from fediverse and internet for 1 or 2 months. My real life got busy, I mean too busy 😔
I'm not leaving BTW. I'll come visit you guys when I get free time but won't be that active.
So take care and stay safe.
See you soon..

There were actually a lot of good recommendations from that Committee report, the one on PR was just the final one! Here's a few more.. including some that local #Fediverse proponents could dig into! @… was on the Committee.
—>FEDI ADVANTAGE<— “The Committee heard about a number of issues related to
the electoral information environment. Members recommend
that the provincial government collaborate with Elections
BC and the federal government to review existing legislative
and regulatory measures related to misinformation,
disinformation, and hate speech during elections, including
**mechanisms to ensure the timely removal of harmful content** (**emphasis added)”
—> FEDI ADVANTAGE<— “To better address challenges associated with social media and emergent technologies such as artificial intelligence, Members recommend establishing a working group to propose amendments to BC’s privacy and election legislation. To better protect all users, the Committee recommends requiring digital platforms to act with a duty of care and establish clear safety-related requirements such as data privacy, platform design, and content policy. The Committee also heard about concerns regarding foreign interference, and recommends that these be considered by the Electoral Integrity Working Group.”
—The Committee heard about the critical importance of
civic education to ensure the public’s understanding of
democratic institutions, processes, and participation. The
Committee recommends strengthening civic education
in the K-12 school system with input from experts and a
greater emphasis on applied learning.
— the Committee suggests enhancing data collection by requiring proactive enumeration on an annual basis and ensuring that registered parties and candidates can access poll-by-poll results. Elections BC should review and improve
voter registration practices and communication, as well as
access to and public awareness of voting opportunities. With respect to expanding voter eligibility, the Committee supports further examination of extending voting rights to 16- and 17-year-olds as well as permanent residents in BC.
— Committee Members recommend modernizing the candidate nominator verification process, requiring Elections BC to collect and share voters’ contact information with registered political parties and candidates, and strengthening measures related to access to multi-unit buildings for candidates and their campaigns.

Big thanks to @… for having me on his podcast. While I never actually went to Ottawa (though I have visited!), it has been quite a journey since landing on the Fedi in 2022.
The struggle continues to try to get our Canadian politicians to understand that *they* will drive viewers no matter what platform they're on.
Also, I am just one person. There are, thankfully, a whole bunch of people trying to accomplish the same goal!
