Is it true that the Canadian government suspended elections indefinitely? It sounds like Canada became a dictatorship overnight and no one is talking about it.

No. Nothing was "suspended". Trudeau has been trying to get an early election triggered, so the opposition tabled a motion calling that "irresponsible". That's all that happened here.
Unfortunately, people who don't understand parliamentary politics chose to interpret this as a suspension of elections and have been REEEEing irrationally about it ever since. Elections aren't suspended in any way shape or form.
Thank you. I think I understand. I will have to study parliamentary politics. What with the lock-downs and other stuff, I was afraid we were going to have to run an under ground railroad and smuggle our Canadian family into Mexico. JK... only slightly.
