Can’t sign this - it’s way too shortsighted.

I would sign a petition (and even campaign) for a law requiring that no public sector communications be on any corporate platform. But calling out x/twitter is useless. In my area, RCMP and the town use Facebook. I do not have a Facebook account.

My town regularly fails to post updates on their own site.

We need to a law that mandates no private platforms should be the primary source of any public information. I don’t want my public services to just start posting on BlueSky.
