I'm more concerned that the current government has now alleged to have broken the election laws twice in a row. If the Liberals had this same record I would be just as concerned. Its one thing to have a different opinion politically than someone, but a whole other thing to try to screw around with elections laws and fairness.

I'm pretty sure I'm the one saying that ALL issues need to be investigated regardless of party affiliation. You seem to be the one stuck on partisan issues like "the conservatives did it before, they must have done it again" yet when I point out that the Liberals have also done it before, why isn't it possible that they have done it again" I get called out for being partisan.
I'll make it very simple.
The Cons got there fingers caught in the cookie jar with the in-and-out scandal in the last election. Very bad for them.
The Liberals did the exact same thing in the last election, yet the mainstream Liberal media barely reported on it. They have also been caught circumventing political donation limits (in Volpe's riding no less) among other things. Has Dion ever paid back his leadership loans?
In this most recent election, the Cons are being accused of using a robo-dialer to send voters in Guelph to a different (and incorrect) polling station. If that is true, the person or persons responsible need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent possible and I don't care if they are conservative, liberal, green or rhino.
Further, the opposition parties are trying to tie any phone call that was made that was annoying, offensive, on the sabbath, late at night or early in the morning to some grand scheme of the Cons to steal the election. This is completely nonesense as there is ZERO evidence that these calls were even made by the Conservatives. Every party made calls last election, and I'd be willing to bet that everyone of them made some annoying calls, rude calls, calls on the sabbath, etc. This is the part that is completely assinine.
Let the investigation happen, and let those responsible pay the price.
