I'm not Canadian (nor American), but I used a few back in the day when I had Facebook. It was actually not that bad when people used those groups for local politics only. When it becomes too partisan then it's unbearable, but moderators can squash that.

I think that requires the moderators to be willing to do so, both in the sense that they are inclined to strongly moderate the group, and in the sense that they aren’t themselves getting an emotional high out of the ragebait.
