It would be great if it wasn't bundled with so many other services. And, where you have the opportunity to opt out, the option is often buried in some obscure sub menu. Just drives me nuts that you can't even do a simple search in Google, Bing, etc. without some form of AI output being displayed.

Dale Nally, in a letter to the chief electoral officer made the risible claim that the petitioner should be disqualified on the basis that he had not voted. 1st, it is disturbing that Nally is rummaging around in voter records. 2nd, the qualification is that the petitioner be eligible to vote. 🤡
