j reacts to the absurdity of voter suppression tactics

see, in canada this would be almost a non-issue because everybody has a health card. although it was made one. but, there's no use in going over that demagoguery, because the bill was demagoguery from the beginning. really.

the bill is obviously designed to make it harder for poor people to vote. not black people, exactly. this is a class-based policy, it's just that poverty is racialized. so, the canadian conservatives tossed it at their base - despite the fact that everybody in canada really does have id, because we all have health cards. then, the liberals went after the conservatives for making it harder for people to vote, which is the impression it gave off, because it's what the conservatives were pretending they were doing.

the point is that if you just had universal health care already then this would be a non-issue.
