Democracy Watch did an analysis of the Alberta referendum and here are 12 ways co-founder Duff Conacher said Monday's vote is undemocratic and unfair.
๐จ too many questions
๐จ questions drafted by partisans
๐จ misleading claims the vote is binding
๐จ courts should've reviewed legality first
๐จ public money spent to sway voters
๐จ political parties not covered by 3rd party rules
๐จ fundraising rules favour wealthy interests
๐จ one person, one vote rule violated by donation rules
๐จ disclosure loophole allows collusion
๐จ incorrect interpretation of advertising rules
๐จ no effective measures for foreign interference, mis/disinformation
๐จ no legitimate mandate with low turnout, not voting = no
