Here’s a link to Rogers instructions. It’s the same for all carriers but I don’t personally know how to do it on android so this link has instructions for both iOS and android.
“I am not a fascist, a bigot, or an authoritarian. I do not want Canada to become the 51st state. I do not want to destroy the last public broadcaster in Canada. As such, Conservatives are the last party I would ever vote for.”
I'm getting them in the States. I have a Tampa, Florida area code but live in Seattle. Whatever chaos-death-engine these parties use cares nothing for us.
Jesus Christ seriously? I live in Alberta and I don’t get them anymore. I tell them off incredibly rudely every time and they’ve stopped for the last few elections.
You're just putting yourself on a contact list.
The best solution is to block and report spam.
Forward the message to 7726 (SPAM).
Works with all carriers and it’s free.
How do you forward, also does it not need to be a 10 digit number? I am not sms/mms savvy. I grew up with emails. I feel old.

Thank you.

My OG reason for hating conservatism is that it's also very anti science. Remeber Harper and his bullshit?
Liberals are not always right and absolutely fuck up.
But Conservatives are YET to be right.... On anything... Ever.....
Wait, do I send STOP to stop the texts, or to stop the liberals?
Yes

I end up on lists if I reply. "I'm more likely to shoot him than vote for him."
How do you know this is a con?
Because it's from the conservatives
Ah, I didn't realize that "Con" meant "conservative"! I thought "Con" meant "scam".
(it means both)
Por que no los dos?
I assume because it's coming from an American number?
I'm not 100% sure though
No, 604 is in BC
Ahhh, OK, thanks. I saw the +1 and assumed that was the American dialing code, like how UK is +44
+1 is also Canada.
TIL
To be fair, I've gotten texts from/for both Liberals and Conservatives.
I have been contacted by Conservatives exactly 3 times. Each time, I tell them to go fuck themselves. Haven't heard from them in years.
