[QUOTE="texan, post: 950468, member: 38206"] [B]MPs vote to give Elections Canada more power. A motion calling on the government to boost Elections Canada's investigative power has passed in a unanimous vote by members of Parliament tonight. Now it is up to the government to introduce legislation to implement the measures contained in the motion. The move comes as the 2011 election is at the centre of controversy on Parliament Hill because of the Elections Canada investigation into fraudulent calls that were made to voters in Guelph, Ont., and the numerous reports of misleading automated messages known as robocalls, and live calls, that were received by voters in ridings across the country.
