Since when did the agriville administrators decide that posting political advertising during a federal election is the job of the moderator of a public forum?

The one sided ad posted looks like it is from Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers.

Probably the same time that Google, facebook, twitter and YouTube decided they could censor and supress anyone they wanted to.

Saskfarmer, are advance polls open? Hawrylak?

This isn’t, never has been and possibly never will be a public forum. It’s a private forum that the owners choose to give access to if you follow their rules. Although I’m sure chuckles is one of those who would prefer to see a leftist government in complete control of what people can post on the internet

I was rather disappointed to see this too. I'm wondering if those jumping in to defend the Agriville owners would have done the same if it had been a video championing the carbon tax for example? Sure it's their site and they are free to post whatever they want but in posting content that is clearly biased to one side of the political debate it detracts from the impartiality of the site. It disappoints me but remember it doesn't cost me anything to walk away from this forum - if the participants walk away Agriville loses their business. I think it would have been smarter to have allowed CAPP to buy ad space on the site.

About time we started to kick that weenie out of Ottawa. He is killing our country.

I would absolutely leave here if I knew the owners were championing the carbon tax. Since you asked.

Exactly, you make my point - see how the dynamic changes when the apparent impartiality of a public discussion forum is compromised?

Grass whose making you post on here then?

Accidentally liked the last post.

What about all the left wing activists on our taxpayer funded CBC?

I believe that is just like preaching to the choir.

It's what their readers want to hear.

Only we pay cash out of pocket, like it or not.

Here you just ignore the seed co ads.
