robocall rally

Canada-wide rallies against election fraud

Fwd: RoboGate: Tell Harper we have no more confidence in his government!

It is very important that as many people as possible come out, in order to show the media how important it is that our politicians respect the democratic institutions that allow them to be in power.

Recently it has come to light that the Harper regime has used nefarious tactics to once again undermine Canada’s democracy.

Automated phone calls were allegedly made in up to 40 ridings where the contest between the Conservatives and either the NDP or Liberals was tight.

These phone calls were purportedly made on behalf of Elections Canada, when in fact they were not. Fraudulantly representing Elections Canada, in order to suppress voter turnout, is illegal and grossly unethical, and completely undemocratic. Investigations have shown that the calls are directly linked to a company closely associated with the Conservatives’ campaign.

We must make a show of solidarity, as a people, to show that Canadians will not tolerate such egregious violations of our democracy.

In demonstration, we will be demanding:
1) An immediate criminal investigation;
2) Full accountability, including up to the Prime Minister’s office, including the impeachment of Harper himself;
3) Either a dissolution of government, or new by-elections in each affected riding.

Join us in protest, and let’s show Canada that we will not live under a neo-fascist regime without fighting back.
