Yes, they did. Previously it had no allusion to there being any other method of voting. They also identify their advice is for people who are 'out of town' and unable to vote.
They do not, sadly, mention there are many other ways to vote if one will just be away from home on election day.
You can vote **today** using a Special Ballot proces at any open Elections Canada office. They are open 7 days a week. https://www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=vot&dir=bkg&document=ec90540&lang=e
Or vote on Advance Polling days.
It once said _We will not be able to vote in person but will be voting by mail._ [imperfect memory; may be slightly off]
Indeed.
But that they edited at all is an improvement over most of the bots. Sadly, it may mean it's a live operator.
Or someone working for a contractor in a digital sweathouse operation.
The same is true of a person sharing disinformation.
But this information was not deliberately wrong. It is the same link on the Elections Canada website for mailing ballots.
It seems likely it is a more-subtle effort to cause people to mail ballots rather than participate in a safer, surer method of voting. But it could simply be someone sharing their situation, and affirming they will still vote.
And I have my elbows up for exactly the reasons you do!
No.
I **am** however carrying 20+ years of Wikimedia history, and "Assume Good Faith."
Totally agree with that.
But working to encourage volunteers, the vast majority of them are trying to help. A microscopic percentage of additions are intentionally malicious. If you attack someone for being mistaken, but who has screwed up the courage to make an edit, you may be destroying any chance that volunteer will be helpful in the future.
But if you attacked someone with ill intent, you have done nothing. You won't change them.
I am going to edit once more in an attempt to clarify further, but I think this conversation is borderline ridiculous.
