Elections Canada has released this resource with some common bits of false or misleading content about elections on social media: https://www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=res&dir=dis&document=index&lang=e

We plan on pinning this resource, and we are proposing the following rules:

edit: Thank you for the feedback everyone, these adjusted rules will be enforced:

• Posts or comments with inaccurate or misleading information from this list will be removed, and users are encouraged to report them
• Repeatedly posting such content will result in a ban from the community until April 28 (at a minimum)

So far we haven’t noticed any serious issues, but we want to get ahead of anything that might come up
