Social media comments by Tobias Lütke, the right-wing CEO of the Canadian online shopping site Shopify, in which the multi-billionaire attacks universal suffrage have been met with outrage in Canada and internationally.

Lütke declared that voting rights should be stripped from those whom he termed “dependents”—based on their payment of income tax. This would disenfranchise wide swathes of workers on low wages, elderly pensioners, the unemployed, students and the infirm. These proposals were met with support from within the Canadian capitalist oligarchy and international financial elite, including from the fascist Elon Musk.

If you don't mind, could you kick this one out to the north rather than the south?

I mean, he came to Canada from Germany as an 18 year old or something, he could return there maybe...

I still suggest just dropping him off north of Nunavut and saying he can't come back, but it's y'all's country and all I can really say is please not here
