@chris He should also know a public presence on non commercial media it is the right thing to do for a public official, regardless of the initial follow count.

Baby steps. He's heard that too for sure. He and staff are still (as many are) in the learned mindset that follower numbers matter. So I want to be able to show that aspect. The rest will come. -

And this is not limited to Canadian accounts. As a Member of Parliament of Canada for a major opposition party (he is NDP Critic for Mental Health and Harm Reduction https://www.gordjohns.ca), he participates in international committees and initiatives as well. I want him to know he will be connected to the world just as much as he will be connected to his constiuents and Canadians. #Fediverse #Mastodon #e4769

@chris I think his portfolio as critic for mental health and harm reduction would be pretty popular on fedi, too! Lots of people on my feed anyway would be interested in seeing the party’s ideas there

@ashinonyx @KWT yes!

@chris I'd say he will be connected, but 2000 in one week is asking for a loss.
Mastodon is strong in Europe with a lot of institutions online, but being a politician is not the most looked for job on here. So 1000 a month should be well possible. Others you have to bring with you from another platform.
Once you have that instance set up you will have the chance of a specific audience.

@chris hashtags are extremely important here, you should add some, like maybe #canada #CanPol #CanadaPol #CanadaPolitics #CanPolitics #politics
And if you just saw this toot because of those tags look at what I'm replying to because I'm pointing at it ^_^

@chris Sigh, again someone completely misunderstanding. This is not Twixer or Zuchbook. Tell him he should strive for quality, not quantity.

@chris oh no, I will not boost. But maybe I will follow him.
I don't know if 'data protection' in Canada is a unpopular as in Germany, but if it is then show him the account from the german 'Federal Commissioner for Data Protection' - he has 44k Followers. He also hosts the official federal Mastodon server.
https://social.bund.de/@bfdiBut please don't forget that 'the Fediverse' is more than just Mastodon. There also is Peertube for example https://tube.network.europa.eu/videos/overview or Mobilizon, Pixelfed, Friendica, Pleroma, ... they are all connected.
Even an official Potus-Account is there when you include Threads to your Fediverse mindset. I just prefer to block the whole Threads instance. -

@chris this Canadian doesn’t follow those who wouldn’t follow back or engage as equals. The fact that numbers are the motivation completely demotivates me from interacting with them. #sorrynotsorryeh

@lifewithtrees The linked story is a demonstration of Gord's current reality with social media. It's barely a place to engage. It's a cesspool that invites threats and harassment. I am hoping that he'll be able to trust people on the fediverse a little more because it *is* a place where you need to follow people and topics that interest you. I'm trying to lower the barriers for him so he will be able to lower his as well.
