Elections Canada is considering whether to lay charges after an enterprising Quebecer put an election vote up for auction on eBay.

The vendor's vote went up for sale on Monday and had at least 17 bids by the time Elections Canada discovered it.

"The law forbids selling ballots as you know," said Elections Canada spokesman Gilles Paquin. "You cannot trade a vote, you cannot exchange it with somebody. It's illegal in many fashions."

LOL Peapod!

I wonder who would be dumb enough to buy it, considering that people in Quebec have a reputation for being shit disturbers.

That IS an intriguing idea to sell Quebec.

What if an Arab nation, say IRAN, had the highest bid - they could use Quebec to harass the Americans.

Maybe we could use the money to buy back Alberta from Ralph, and then nationalise the oil industry!! Lose quebec, gain the oil - its like the USA taking Iraq and killing New Orleans in a way.....
