OTTAWA - A Liberal MP's riding association has been slapped with a hefty fine for robocalls that broke the rules by anonymously attacking his Tory rival's stance on abortion during the last election campaign.
A recorded message to voters in the southern Ontario riding of Guelph violated telemarketing rules by failing to state that it came from the Liberal party or MP Frank Valeriote's campaign, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission said Friday.
The infraction carried a $4,900 fine.
"The violations involved a pre-recorded message sent by the association that failed to identify on whose behalf the call was made; provide necessary call-back information; and display the originating telephone number or an alternate number where the originator could be reached," the CRTC said.

Where are the cries of the theft of Democracy now?

Why are the Liberals who seemly were crusaders of Democracy a month ago demanding by-elections not leading by example in this case?
