THE MANDATE
On November 5th, eCanadian voters provided me with a mandate to make eCanada a desirable place for existing active soldiers to relocate to. I intend to do this by providing healthy amounts of MU funding, a steady supply of meaningful conflict, and high levels of productivity for self-supply networks.
PDP, Ethel, irish, CFovetS, Etemenanki, EZStreet, AMC, Manafikio, Gary Hubert, and Bunsen HoneyDew will help me do this.
STATE OF THE UNION
Opening Remarks
Just wanted to put down a Hail Mary attempt at an ATO to stop the Romanians, but you'll see how futile it would be. Also, wanted to share some quick thoughts as the election results unfold.
On an ATO Plan for Congressional Elections...
As of about 30 minutes ago, this is what had to happen.
To knock Lego-kun out of BC, Trenton Rendell needs 2 votes pluu whatever else Lego gets.
To knock Vangx (8 votes) out of New Brunswick, jfstpierre needs 4 votes and frank139 needs 6 votes. 12 to ATO New Brunswick, 12 so far.
To knock grasutu (11 votes) out of Nunavut, Nogin the nog needs 4 votes and B.Dimitrov need 8. 12 to ATO Nunavut, 24 so far.
To knock Margelatujr (8 votes) out of PEI, screaming slave needs 2 votes and Melissa London needs 2 votes. 4 to ATO PEI, 28 so far.
To knock LaserFrate (8 votes) out of Saskatchewan, Blacksea09 needs 2 votes and Masterilke needs 4. 6 to ATo Saskatchewan, 34 so far.
Now for the wildcards. Everyone needs to be bumped up to 12 to knock out grasutu and the three other guys at 8. Wilhelm needs 1, Cham/Nosyt/EZStreet/Trenton each need 3 for a total of 12 and sub-total of 13. Crisfire/Melissa/Dr.Pain/SdC each need 5 for a total of 20 and a sub-total of 33. Chochi/Guicio each need 6 for a total of 12 and a sub-total of 45.
At this point, we have successfuly eliminated one PTO threat, provided they don't get any more votes.
Three of Coda/Treian/Masterilke/NoobPower/Derakor need 7 votes for a total of 21 and a sub-total of 66 votes. 66 votes to ATO the wildcard, plus 34 more to ATO the regions makes it 100 votes, assuming the PTO'ers do not have any more votes in hand.
To top it all off, these 100 votes will have to be cast perfectly efficiently and as per the kindly dictator determined by the lot of the nation, hopefully in the next 15 minutes.
Is anyone sitting on 100 votes?
On managing a political party in the best interests of the nation...
Canada has never had a PTO party in the top five nor PTO congressmen on congress. To keep undesireable candidates out, you run blockers. If you can't find them in your party, you ask for help. There are plenty of active people willing to block. Its just how its done.
On what PTO congressmen mean...
Well, I don't have a lot of experience on this but here is what I anticipate; they will be active. They will approve citizenship requests for their chums and they will run interference with our motions, likely moving a few crafty ones themselves. Impeachment, natural enemy, monetary motions of small amounts, etc.
This will also polarize congress. Of the remaining congressmen, there are only so many active ones, there will be a lot of pressure on them to perform and protect the nation. The congress candidates who run for the 5g and disappear until the 25th rolls around again will be pm'd quite regularly to help out.
In addition, people will be pissed that UN and NPC get slammed for not doing a better job preventing this. This will create division in congress as well.
Ultimately, we will be heading toward "bona fide" partisan politics rather than "subtle difference" partisan politics

I don't have 100, but I do have 1, Mr. President! o7
Wow I don't think I've ever heard of a PTO situation in eCan, best of luck :/
Actually we had a Congress with almost 50% Huns in Summer of '09. That was before citizenships where introduced to the game. They tried to funnel money out of our country and also to bribe Canadian congressmen out of their seats (got some free goldz from those suckers).
When CS was finally introduced they screwed Canadians that where landlocked in occupied regions during the introduction out of gold to get citizenship. It was only a month, but a realy tough one.

If you are wondering aboot the parties: back in the days a country would loose all its parties to the conquerer of its last region. You had to pay again to found new ones. Then again, starting a war and attacking a region did cost plenty of ggold as well.
I don't have 100, but I do have 1, Mr. President! x2
The country saw fit to elect terrible congressman that don't post in congress, and when they do don't understand what's happening or pay attention to the events of the day.
Personally I think Canada got exactly what it deserves.
Best of luck to the Romanians. I wish you all the best.
😁I take stands that not everyone agress with😁
Some great Canadians ran for Congress that month Dr.Pain, I was just a newbie when that happened
So was I. It was actually my first run for congress. That is why i remeber it so well.
Well, when people actively seek to destroy other parties like DAL, the MDP or the CPF, steal from the state and fail to bring new players to eCanada, this is what happens.
Weird eh?
So last month when the UN was PTO'd everyone stood up and paid attention, but this month, with no top 5 PTO everyone just hung back and allowed PTOers to ninja their way into empty slots
Now who said that would happen again?
Filed under "Why the UN PTO was a good thing"
MDP will be on its way back. Just need some time.
did the party's that dropped the ball request blockers from anyone?
@crisfire - My response - Just How Stupid Are We?
I was going to write it as a comment but it got far too long.
6 PTO-ers will grant 24 new citizenship next month => new votes for they every month. It would be nice and fun to see it.
But, Muglack, what I said yesterday? Just you said sooner today.

>"On November 5th, eCanadian voters provided me with a mandate to make eCanada a desirable place for existing active soldiers to relocate to.

MU Funding - Maximal and equitable if inefficient.
Meaningful Conflict - Nothing they couldn't get elsewhere.
High Productivity - 60/40 still.
.....and 2 manageable PTO situations, no resolution about letting a theif back into society, defeat on the battlefield, millions of executive orders, a crackdown on opponents, pending court cases stacking up (see last), an inability to drive eCanada forwards, paranoia and a still 'meh' economy.
How have you not been impeached yet?
The coooky jar is to high to reach.

Go back to the bank Alfragem. It seriously amazes me that people spend money on this game, it kinda makes me feel sorry for you.
Hail Mary?!? 😕
