🚨 BOOST CHALLENGE! 🚨Ok #Fediverse and #Mastodon. If I tell my Canadian Member of Parliament, Gord Johns, that he will get 2000 followers within one week of creating a Mastodon account, will you make that happen?

I want him to be able to say when he stands in the House and presents the #e4769 petition for an official Fediverse server that he himself is the first Canadian MP to be on the Fediverse!

Boost for yes! I am going to show him this post! I'm counting on you, literally! 🔥 🙏 2️⃣ 0️⃣ 0️⃣ 0️⃣ 🙏

update! @bonitazarrillo_mp is the first MP on the Fedi!

@chris This is from a year ago - how'd it all work out?

@xinit unfortunately no real response. The MPs tend to move as a block in their party and the parties have generally continued to use X. They are starting to move to Bsky now though so I think there is an opportunity opening with the trade war to push the canadian-content angle. So I am grateful that this post has re-awakened.

@chris sounds like a good idea to push the trade angle for sure. Good luck.

@xinit @Paulatics The Senator has been a huge proponent within the walls of Parliament and on Mastodon!
