April 30, 2014 (QP1)
Mr. Scott Simms (Bonavista—Gander—Grand Falls—Windsor, Lib.):
Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives failed to submit an amendment to Bill C-23 to give the Commissioner of Canada Elections the power to compel testimony. Well, I wonder why.
The Conservative Party knew that the commissioner did not have this power, and that is why it ordered other Conservatives not to co-operate in the investigation of election frauds.
Liberals have submitted the amendments.
Will the minister finally do the right thing and support this amendment, or will he continue to protect Conservatives from election fraud investigations?
Hon. Pierre Poilievre (Minister of State (Democratic Reform), CPC):
Mr. Speaker, the problem that the commissioner had with the investigation is that he discovered there was nothing to investigate. The hon. member across the way should finally admit that he and his party engaged in a whole series of false allegations, trumped-up allegations that have been proven completely false.
Also false is the idea that both he and the NDP continue to suggest and put amendments toward: to allow people to vote without presenting any ID whatsoever. We reject that idea completely and, unlike in the last election, after the passage of the fair elections act, every single person who votes will be required to show ID.
