Frank -- If Stephen Harper, and his Conservatives, don’t like your politics, they’ll take away your ballot. That’s what 700 voters at University of Guelph found out Wednesday when Conservative operatives stormed into an Elections Canada voting area on campus and tried to disrupt the vote. Luckily, the Conservative operatives were stopped. But it’s outrageous that this even occurred in Canada. If the Conservatives had an issue with Elections Canada, they should have made a complaint through official channels, not sent in their thugs. After the Conservatives sent Elections Canada a legal letter attempting to throw out the 700 ballots cast in Guelph, the Liberal Party immediately stood up for the voters and insisted that their ballots be counted. Fortunately, Elections Canada sided with the Liberal Party and declared that the votes would be counted. This story shows how fragile our democratic rights can be under Harper’s rule — but it’s not too late to fight back. Commit to vote now to stop Stephen Harper’s ballot grab. And please forward this email to your friends and family and ask them to do the same. Thank you. Adam J.
