In order to try and keep the tweets on Politwitter focused on Canadian politics the site blocks some Twitter accounts. Tweeters that use hashtags which are indexed by Politwiter and their tweets don't contain Canadian topics are the most likely to be blocked. Some accounts that might spam twitter are another likely candidate.

If you see a twitterer that constantly shows up on Politwitter and their tweets have nothing to do with Canadian poltiics, please contact me to have them added to this list.
