I just went on a big letter writing campaign to get politicians and the media to stop using X, I also made complaints with a few agencies to get the use of X by elected officials investigated by a few agencies. Hopefully with any luck we can see some change coming soon.

If you would like to put pressure on the elected officials I strongly encourage you do it; a few tips try your hardest to keep it to one page or less, address it, attach a pdf to the email saying what you said, and send it to all the elected officials. I have all the MP and Senator emails, and all the Saskatchewan emails if you need them.

Share the emails, bud! Did you CC them or send an email per person?

[-] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

After so many failed attempts at sharing it directly here I just said F it I will post it on my blog. https://reannlegge.ca/

When I am emailing the Saskatchewan Legislature I normally put the MLAs in the To field and the media in the CC section. But because of issues I stuck them all in the To section, I dislike that I had to do it that way this time but it is what it is.

The blog is completely ok, but in case I can help fix the issue, what was happening when you tried sharing it directly here?

[-] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

The copied emails all had <> around them when pasting, I thought that may have been the app I had them stored on so I changed that but the error stayed so I copied them into nano then copied them over and all the emails had a / prior to the @ sign.

It could have been something my iPad was doing, or the app I am using for Lemmy (Voyager).
