Hello ATS,
In case some of you are unaware of what is currently going on in Canada right now. Elections canada and the RCMP are currently doing an investigation.
Well i called this back before election day, i knew that some dirty tricks were going to be played so that the tories got a majority government, It
doesn't make any sense if you're a canadian and know what happened to dissolve parliament in the first place.
Harper government held in
contempt of parliament
Alright, so now that we have made this clear, and for those that know what is happening in canada right now, know that Harper is essentially a
lunatic, But theres enough info on the web to cover that little topic.
This article shows the tories attempted to blame the liberals for the calls, but found to have lied about that as well. I think the cons are running
scared now, trying to hold on to this country..
Tories
counterattack backfires
And the amount of ridings effected has jumped from 19 to over 50! This is getting enormous:
Over 50 ridings
This is getting pretty big, and a lot of people are getting pretty ticked off at our current government. It seems like they are digging their own
grave. All canada needs is a catalyst, this could possible be the catalyst that changes the face of canada, allows us to hold a new election and 'try
again' so to speak, I knew there was no chance harper could have gotten a majority (he got it by 6,100 votes, and by ONE seat).
If some of you are interested in some of the things harper has done contrary to what the public wants or needs, check out this page right here, it has
some interesting stories on it, as well as sources to news articles:
Sh!t Harper Did
Example:
Since 2006, Harper has cut funding for women's advocacy by 43 per cent, shut 12 out of 16 Status of Women offices in Canada and eliminated
funding of legal voices for women and minority groups, including the National Association of Women and the Law and the Courts Challenges
Program
So now what do we canadians do about it? Well, there are already some people that thought of this, and already started up petitions on Leadnow and
Avaaz, The leadnow petition will send an e-mail to all of the people listed below, and the e-mail can be modified, but it is a standard "Investigate
this" e-mail. The e-mails will be sent to the following people:
Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada
William H. Corbett, Commissioner of Elections Canada
Bob Paulson, Commissioner of the RCMP
Nycole Turmel, Leader, New Democratic Party
Bob Rae, Leader, Liberal Party
Louis Plamondon, Parliamentary Leader, Bloc Québécois
Elizabeth May, Leader, Green Party
Note: I removed the links to the petitions, you can find them yourself online, one is named Leadnow robocalls fraud, and the other is Avaaz, of the
same name i believe. Check it out yourself since i am not allowed to link them here. Or U2U me and i will send the links
And here is the list of all local MP's in Canada, phone numbers, and e-mails:

This is a really big deal, this breaking story has confirmed my beliefs that somehow the election was rigged, even a little bit rigged to suit the
needs of one of the parties. It has been confirmed that the ridings effected were mostly non-conservative ridings, either voting for lib or NDP, and
were given false information on voting locations, as well as accepting donations for the conservative party. What gets me the most is that the tories
are shrugging it off, as if they have some sort of immunity from it,
I hope the smirk gets wiped off harpers face when the investigation is done. At the MINIMUM we should hold brand new by elections for the effected
areas. I want a whole new election. And many people are feeling the same as me. The election was messed with, so the recent election should be void
until proven otherwise.
Hope this gave some good information, I know there is a thread or two on this subject already, but they have already long died, and there is always
news pouring out about it. Good luck canada.
Note to Forum moderators: I just got an e-mail from another thread about petitions, and well, i dont see why i can't put the petitions in my own
thread here, seeing as how this is a big issue, its not some random site that i want people to go to for hits or whatever, its a legit problem. And it
requires legit canadian voter signatures. I just want to -help-, that is all, and wanted to talk about it with fellow ATSers
Note note: Removed petition links
