So I'm new here and was poking around and didn't see any mention of what is currently going on in Canada at the moment in regards to the "Robo-Call" scandal. Right now Canadians are calling for a Royal Commission into the allegations that the current Conservative Government used dirty tricks to lure people from the polls on Election Day.
Elections Canada's investigations have found that the Call Centres that the Conservatives used during the last Federal Election in May 2011 were the where the calls were made from. These calls were made to targeted voters who were previously determined by the Conservative Government as going to vote for the Opposition during the election and they later received calls saying it was on behalf of Elections Canada and that their polling station had changed. When voters turned up to the addresses given to them on election day they were turned away as it wasn't the right place or they showed up to a non existent poll.
Right now the Government should be considered illegitimate considering they are under investigation for Voter Suppression. Canadians are taking to the streets by the thousands in order to Protest the Government on a bi-weekly basis from Coast to Coast.
