Fraud Occurred in Election of Prime Minister Harper, Canadian Court Rules
The Canadian Federal Court has found instances of fraud in the 2011 election won by the Conservative Party's Stephen Harper.
In a ruling Thursday, the Canadian Federal Court said it had found instances of fraud in the 2011 election won by the Conservative Party’s Stephen Harper. Additionally, “there was an orchestrated effort to suppress votes during the 2011 election campaign by a person with access to the [Conservative Party’s] CIMS database,” the ruling said.

Accordingly, the Council of Canadians has called on the Conservative Party to investigate the issue. It says anything less at this point would be a cover-up on behalf of the Conservatives.
The Council of Canadians says that the non-cooperation, obstructionism, and attempts to disrupt the Federal Court case by the CIMS makes it look like Prime Minister Harper has something to conceal.
Garry Neil, Executive Director of the Council of Canadians said “This Federal Court decision is a major indictment of the Conservative Party of Canada.”
“Either senior leaders of the Conservative Party were directly involved in election fraud or they were astoundingly negligent in securing access to their voter database. Illegal or incompetent–just like in the Senate scandal.”
