🇨🇦 - I’m not an electoral law expert. I’m just someone who still believes that democracy depends as much on perception as it does on procedures.
When a riding flips because of a single vote, following a judicial recount, and 840 ballots are rejected, I’m not questioning the legal result. But I can’t help asking a simple question:
Will people trust the process?
That matters, because a healthy democracy isn’t just about rules being followed — it’s about collective confidence in the legitimacy of outcomes.
Some will say these are rare edge cases. That everything was verified. I believe them. But I also think this kind of scenario raises a real optics issue: when margins are this tight, and several recounts all happen to swing in the same political direction — just a few seats short of a majority — it’s understandable if some citizens feel uneasy.
And that unease isn’t necessarily partisan. It stems from the sense that the process feels too opaque, too technical, too hard to follow from the outside, and therefore too vulnerable to public doubt.
This isn’t a hostile critique. It’s a call to do better. To make the process more transparent, more readable, more accessible.
Because democracy isn’t just about what’s legal. It’s about what people believe to be legitimate.

Durov said on his Telegram channel today that the two and a half year blockchain and crypto project has been put to sleep. Ironically, after leaving Russia because the government wanted his encryption keys to his social media firm, Durov’s cryptocurrency idea lost steam because of a U.S. court. “The technology we created allowed for an open, free, decentralized exchange of value and ideas. TON had the potential to revolutionize how people store and transfer funds and information,” he wrote on his channel. “Unfortunately, a U.S. court stopped TON from happening.”
Export WhatsApp stickers to Telegram on iPhone
You can’t. What you can do, though, is use WhatsApp’s and Telegram’s web platforms to transfer stickers. It’s easy, but might take a while.Open WhatsApp in your browser, find a sticker you like in a chat, and right-click on it to save it as an image. The file won’t be a picture, though—it’s a webpage and will have a .webp extension. Don’t be scared, this is the way. Repeat this step to save as many stickers as you want.Then, open Telegram in your browser and go into your Saved messages chat. Just as you’d share a file with a friend, click the Share file button on the bottom left of the chat window (it looks like a dog-eared paper), and select the .webp files you downloaded. Click Open and you’ll see your stickers in your Saved messages chat. This is now your sticker depository. To use them, forward them as you would a message from one chat to the other: by clicking or long-pressing on the sticker, and then choosing Forward.
