That’s what Conservative Senator Linda Frum seems to think: (for lack of a better term). Some twitter tweets give her position quite clearly:
“Elections Canada role is to administer fair elections. Not to motivate. Not to induce. More integrity when mission is clear cut.”
and this, as a reply to an incredulous Bruce Anderson wanting a followup to reading this:
“Elections Canada should not have a vested interest in recording a high voter turnout. That’s a conflict”
The ONLY way you get to that conclusion for Senator Frum, and I presume other Conservatives like Harper and Poilievre, who obviously feel the same way -otherwise they’d never have stuck this provision […]
