Call me a partisan (although I don't think that the shoe fits here), but representing yourself as Elections Canada and phoning people to misdirect them for voting seems a little more serious? Not sure why that distinction seems hard to fathom for CPC supporters.

I agree it is very serious. If and when they catch the people responsible, they absolutely should string them all up. If it can be proven that Harper knew about it and either supported it or didn't do everything in his power to stop it, he should also be punished severely. Having said that, at this point it can't even be proven that it was a conservative operative, volunteer or otherwise, that is "Pierre Poutine".
However, none of that excuses similar tactics by the Liberals, caught on camera. If you are suggesting Harper should pay simply because he leads the party where a volunteer at the local level overstepped his bounds (assuming that is what happened here), then clearly Iggy and the Liberal leadership should as well. Both are criminal acts.
