Trigger Warning: Contains the Queen's English

We're having an election up here in Igloostan and as with all things politics this has angered the snowbacks. Over the weekend multiple papers owned by the same company ran a front page that looked like this

For those of you that don't read moosenese it's a huge ass Conservative advertisement that slams their Liberal and NDP opponents.

Here are some people being overly dramatic:

The Fair and Balanced

If this said "Voting Conservative will cost you," everyone would be rushing to jerk off the editor. But no, this is a savage threat to our personal lives! Fuck different views!

The Free Speech Advocate

Ffs. There should be some kind of law to prevent that. Who owns them?

The Iron Stomach

This is enough to make you puke. It makes me sick just looking at this.

This is all just reddit shit though and the real fun comes when...

One user rallies people to write their local editors and decides to post their back and forth slap fight with the Vancouver Sun editor as seen here

Our election is on Monday and this insanity will likely end judging by the polls. If a conservative government gets a minority you can expect a drama overflow.
