A representative of the movement to flood federal election ballots with candidates as a way to advocate for electoral reform defended his actions before a House of Commons committee on Oct. 7.
Tomas Szuchewycz told MPs the Longest Ballot Committee (LBC) urges MPs to recuse themselves from writing election rules, which he calls a conflict of interest, and to instead “establish a permanent independent, nonpartisan body to oversee the full framework of election law.”
