For all you CSPAN2 fans out there, if you don’t recognize her name don’t feel bad, she’s a Canadian senator.
Somehow it didn’t register to me that Canada has a senate even though that’s the name of Ottawa’s hockey team.
Oh it’s awesome to see posts from Paula Simons on lemmy! For context, she’s a Canadian Senator that has an active Mastodon account, and has interacted with constituents directly through the fediverse. I haven’t done much of a deep dive into her politics, but she’s openly taken questions from the fediverse and brought them to the senate floor, and then shared back the replies from the federal government.
In my opinion, she’s a great example of what a politican can be when they leverage decentralized social media.
Sounds like a politician that does their job the way it is supposed to be done.
Plenty do the job. Few do it properly.
More like her please, everywhere.
Her podcast is pretty good too, talks about the contradictory nonsense that is being from alberta

It’s garbage, but I have lock-in with Facebook messenger.
Fun while it lasted? No it wasn’t. Myspace was fun while it lasted.
Come to the Fediverse, we have cookies.
And smut
She’s going to have to get over her bigotry against smut
She can block the large majority. I’d like to shout out lemmynsfw for being a great, clear, fairly contained domain.

Accessibility isn’t a bad thing for someone in her position.

As an optimist, I’m still amazed anyone would need even the slightest suggestion to gtfo of facepals once the basics were explained to them.
