But let's assume for a moment that the goal of campaign equity is both attainable and desirable. How can it be achieved if the arbiters of our elections -Elections Canada -appear bent on favouring some parties and prosecuting others?
Flashback - "Shortly after the results of the investigation [of questionable Liberal donations] began to make its way onto the pages of major publications, Elections Canada pulled down the database search function and replaced it with a version that renders the site useless."
How it can be? Easily! The federal government institutions are still filled with liberal appointees, doing their covert sabotage on our dime.
Link is wrong.
The MSM has not helped here either. By not reporting on the fraud, yes it is fraud, conducted by Elections Canada, the general lib-left public and the organizations they head, how can we initiate remedial actions? Shine a light on these ba$tard$ so we can force them to out of positions of power.
Gunter's article is at the National Post.
Is elections canada affliated with the Panhandlers Union of Ottawa?
I said it before, how outstanding is that!
I sent an e-mail to Elections Canada about the lack of requirement to pay back loans on time vs hounding CPOC about expenses declared legal (and previously done by LPC). Got a boiler plate thanks for the note with what is likely a copy paste response saying that the judge extended the payment period. Nothing about point #2. They did respond within a day!
If Elections Canada were a "human being" with balls, Lorne Gunter just nailed them to the proverbial stump for all Canadians to comprehend.
Evidently bias exists in arms length entities as well as in Corporate Canadian MSM
Lorne has done a pretty decent job in the past on AGW and carbon trading scam as well.
Good on ya Lorne !!
Lorne asked "How can it be achieved if the arbiters of our elections -Elections Canada -appear bent on favouring some parties and prosecuting others"?
Easy answer, decades of have the ability of stuffing Liberals into all the positions.
Are these the same "officials" who followed Jimmah Cawter and said Arafat was duly elected?
What Joe Molnar said @12;01.
The 'flashback' link and what they have done this time is strikingly similar. it seems that when they are caught in questionable practices,EC simply changes the rules,likely calling it an evolution of the law. BTW,steve at 11:19 a.m. who had a reply in one day,ittook them ten days to reply to a letter of mine,with a partial answer. It would be very interesting to see what has been changed this time,and if the change benefits the Liberal deadbeats.
Meanwhile Justice continues to crank out Sarah Brady propaganda as peer-reviewed science.
Environment Canada republishes WWF propaganda as "science".
According the EC loons the cleanup of Gai's biggest OIL SPILL is pollution........
It would be interesting to evaluate the voting patterns of the Canadian Forces.
The US democRATs try to exclude absentee ballots for good reason----serving GI's and leathernecks vote Republican....still trying to figure out Colin Powell...I really thought he was above racial bias.
I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends: I was fascinated at the expressions on the musicians faces when the PM did his memorable act in Ottawa that evening. It must have been excruciating for the musicians in the union and the arts community to see Stephen prove that he's no Philistine when it comes to these things. The Artistic community had to accept cut-backs along with everyone else. Hope there's more coming; say at the CBC or the Post Office that doesn't deliver.
The unfortunate thing is that the Liberals have all this "infrastructure" in place throughout the public service and including their propaganda arm, CBC.STAR.G&M and still they are having a problem with their 'message'.
Can you imagine Harper with those assets? 50% in the polls wouldn't be a stretch.
What it comes down to is the Liberals don't have a message. Iggy's an appointed fraud. They think the old rules are still in place and they can pick up where they left off.
Can you imagine what Liberals would have done to Canada at Copenhagen with their ties to Maurice Strong, the UN and Power Corp who have vested interest in carbon markets?
It just shows me, how incompetent and self serving they are and also the media who side with them.
No surprise here.
As I recall, former Chief Electoral Officer Jean-Pierre Kingsley used to publicly take positions on issues like the elimination of business and labour contributions to parties and Chretien's subsidy, proportional representation and other electoral systems, and (worst of all) in favour of the third-party-spending election gag law that Stephen Harper took to the Supreme Court in 2003-04. In this he was like the clowns at the Wheat Board, who seem to do little else than write letters to newspapers defending their sorry derrieres.
A bureaucrat's job is to carry out government policy, not to state opinions on it (remember what happened to anti-metric activist Neil Fraser in the 1980s).
