I didn’t realize Elon had Canadian grandparents:
Musk’s maternal grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, moved from Canada to South Africa in 1950 because he liked the newly elected apartheid government.
In the 1930s, Haldeman was the Canadian leader of a fringe political movement originating in the US, Technocracy Incorporated, that advocated abolishing democracy in favor of government by elite technicians but which took on overtones of fascism with its uniforms and salutes.
The Canadian government banned Technocracy Incorporated during the second world war as a threat to the country’s security in part for its opposition to fighting Hitler. Haldeman was charged with publishing documents opposing the war and sent to prison for two months.
I don’t like associating people with the sins of their ancestors, but Technocracy Incorporated sounds too silly to ignore.
Again, why do they ask for an address? and why was I told I needed to have that address for six months as my primary residence to be eligible to vote?
Did you read the link you posted before you downvoted my comment? It’s because you reside in Canada. The rules for voting from within Canada are different than those voting from abroad.
