OUST THE PIRATES!

Take Back the Country - Oust the Pirates

I REPEAT - SMASH THE PARTY MONOTRIOPOLY ON PARLIAMENT!

Canadians could easily reclaim the country from the three-party pirates.

In every riding across the country at least one independent candidate should round up the necessary 100 nomination signatures from local voters, take the signatures and make the $1000.00 deposit to Elections Canada and declare themselves in the running.

Can you imagine a parliament made up of ordinary citizens with no party affiliation?

Start today.

Visit the Elections Canada website, download the forms and get down to it.

Take back the country from the pirates.
coupe les tetes du gouvernment

NO FU*KING MYSTERY!! AND YOU GET YOUR $ BACK!

The party bastards don't OWN the electoral process or parliament - WE DO!

TAKE IT BACK, NOW!

Is it really that simple to run for parliament?

YES IT IS!

Eligibility

The right to be a candidate in a federal election is protected by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The procedures and responsibilities are spelled out in the Canada Elections Act.

Unless specifically declared to be ineligible under section 65 of the Canada Elections Act, any person qualified as an elector may run for election. That is, a prospective candidate must be a Canadian citizen who is at least 18 years of age on election day. A candidate may seek election in only one riding at a time; however, the candidate need not be a registered elector or even reside in that riding. (A riding is also known as a constituency or electoral district.)

As soon as possible after an election is called [DON'T WAIT! DO IT NOW!] every person who has decided to be a candidate in that election and who has chosen an official agent and an auditor must obtain nomination papers (form EC 20010) from the returning officer of the riding in which that person intends to be a candidate. The nomination papers must be signed before a witness by at least 100 persons who are electors entitled to vote in the riding in which the candidate is seeking nomination. (In the case of the larger or remote ridings listed in Schedule 3 of the Act, the required minimum number of signatures is 50.)

The nomination papers must then be submitted to the returning officer by the witness to the prospective candidate's sworn consent to the nomination. The papers include a witnessed declaration signed by the candidate stating that he or she accepts the nomination, statements signed by the official agent and the auditor consenting to act in those capacities, the candidate's name, permanent address and occupation, the official agent's name and permanent address, and the name, business address and occupation of the auditor. A candidate is also required to pay a deposit of $1,000. This is reimbursed if the candidate's official agent submits the candidate's election expenses returns and unused official receipts within the required time.



CMAQ: Vie associative


Quebec City collective: no longer exist.

Get involved !

 

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
