Dean Del Mastro campaign filed 'false document' to Elections Canada: sworn affidavit | News | National Post

Conservative MP Dean Del Mastro’s 2008 election campaign filed a “false document” to Elections Canada, according to a sworn affidavit from an Elections Canada investigator released in Ottawa on Thursday.

In addition, a handwriting analyst hired by Postmedia and the Ottawa Citizen concluded that the handwriting on the document matches the writing of a Del Mastro campaign worker.

Del Mastro, who often defends the government on ethical questions in his role as parliamentary secretary to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, is under investigation by Elections Canada for allegedly exceeding his spending and donation limit in the 2008 election, offences punishable by a fine of up to $5,000 and up to five years in prison.

His official agent, Richard McCarthy, is under investigation for allegedly accepting an illegal donation from Del Mastro and knowingly filing a false return.

Neither man has been charged and both have stated publicly that their submissions to Elections Canada were complete and accurate.

The investigation relates to $21,000 paid to Holinshed Research Group, a now-defunct voter-contact company, allegedly for 630 hours of voter-identification and get-out-the-vote calls during the 2008 campaign.

The allegations are revealed in an Information to Obtain a production order, signed by Elections Canada investigator Thomas Ritchie, that compelled company president Frank Hall to produce the records.

I believe if you check the federal criminal code, uttering a false document as its called
is in fact different from a fraudulent document. Fraud could get someone three to five
years in the clink. Uttering a false document can get you up to fourteen years.

It is clear that Harper dropped his morals and so called promises years ago.

Why is this cretin still a Parliamentary Secretary-

Del Mastro campaign workers knew about Elections Canada probe: court documents | News | National Post

Newly filed court documents cast doubt on Conservative MP Dean Del Mastro’s repeated assertion that he was not aware he is being investigated by Elections Canada.

An affidavit filed by Elections Canada investigator Thomas Ritchie says he was told in December that Del Mastro had promised a Conservative volunteer in Peterborough, Ont., the MP would personally “handle the matter.”

Del Mastro, the parliamentary secretary to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, is under investigation for allegedly overspending on the 2008 federal election campaign by paying $21,000 to an Ottawa company to contact voters and get out the vote on election day.

None of the allegations has been proven in court.

Asked about the investigation during a telephone interview June 6, Del Mastro appeared surprised.

“I have no knowledge of what you’re talking about,” he said then.

He later said on television that he could not defend himself when he didn’t even know about the investigation.
