🇨🇦 Calling from Canada

Nobody has more on the line than Canada.

Tariffs. The border. The auto sector. Energy. The future of public healthcare on this continent. American elections rewrite Canadian life in real time. You share the language, the time zone, and the consequences. Pick up the phone.

What it's already done: democratic-socialist and Justice Democrats–backed candidates have won a US Senate nomination, a DC mayoral primary, and multiple New York congressional primaries this cycle — several by margins under two thousand votes. See the full win-loss record below, then pick a race that still needs callers from Canada before its next election date.

Why this matters

Every DSA-aligned race we phone bank for — win or lose

Since the 2026 cycle opened, democratic-socialist and Justice Democrats–backed candidates have already won a US Senate nomination, a mayoral primary in the nation's capital, and two contested New York congressional primaries — several by a few thousand votes or fewer. Grassroots GOTV phone banking is the volunteer machine campaigns lean on hardest when a race is that close, and it is exactly the tactic international volunteers are legally free to do under FEC 11 CFR 100.74. Below is the full ledger: what's still live, and what has already been decided.

Who calls

Who calls from Canada

NDP and Liberal voters. Union members in steel, auto, and the trades watching tariffs decide their next shift. Healthcare workers defending public Medicare. Climate organisers. Francophone progressives. Indigenous land defenders. Everyone who has watched a White House decision change the price of breakfast in Canada. You already know the stakes.

Best call window

6pm to 9pm local time, aligned with US target zones

Canadians have flexible coverage of both coasts. ET callers in Toronto, Montreal, or Halifax line up directly with US East Coast primetime. PT callers in BC line up with West Coast. Any province can find a working evening shift.

Legal basis

Canadian citizens may volunteer personal services to US campaigns under FEC 11 CFR 100.74 without compensation. Canadian law restricts foreign interference in Canadian elections. It does not restrict you from volunteering in someone else's as a private individual.

What is at stake

What is at stake for Canada

Tariffs hit Canadian wages within weeks. Energy and pipeline decisions move provincial budgets. Border policy reshapes families. Public healthcare in Canada is defended partly by the contrast Americans choose. You are not voting in their election. You are calling about yours.

Why it matters

Why Canadian callers feel familiar

To most American ears a Canadian accent is a neighbour. There is no foreign caller dynamic, no friction, just a conversation across the border that already happens millions of times a day. Be honest, be warm, ask their plan to vote. The campaign script does the rest.
