OH MY MY I Love this
particularly with Elections Canada attacking me recently. My first
question is why won't CBC tell us who the lawyers speaking for O'Leary
are?

As usual, and consistent with his appreciation for Canada, O'Leary fails to understand how we do things in Canada.
Ignorance is bliss to these American interlopers like O'Leary and Trump ... fortunately, in Canada, we don't care for his kind of politics; regrettably in the States, they erred in their collective judgment and now are stuck with a White House nightmare.

This clown spent hundreds of
thousands his campaign didn't have, knowing he wouldn'tbe able to
personally repay it, and feigns concern for small vendors - he put them
in that situation! Fiscally responsible? What a joke!

@Kat Burd
The cons were right to do so.
The cons shot themselves in the foot when they let O'Leary to run.

Did they think that the debt they ran up during the campaign was going to magically disappear if they became leader?
Fiscally irresponsible.

@Mike Poska "Did they think

Well they magically think the federal debt they created, 2/3 of the total, will magically disappear as I have never heard a Conservative run on paying it off

@Michael Murphy Doesn't your hero Dion still owe money from many moons ago?
Bob Loblaw
Ironic that all the top
Conservative candidates can't even balance the books of their own
campaigns and leave the vendors holding the bag for their
failure....sad.
Michael Murphy
@Troy Mann "Total debt added by last two cons is well over the 500 Billion mark not 160 Billion."
Vote Scheer to pay off the debt! Wait, that's not in the Conservative party platform? Ever? Odd since that's all they ever complain about when a Liberal is in power

@Pat Smith (JuJubes) "No government has ever paid off the debt. Nor will they ever."
No but the Chretien/Martin government paid off $100b, roughly 25% but right wingers were complaining about being overtaxed instead of being happy that a fiscal responsible government way paying it off

@Michael Murphy Perhaps you should review what I said to you?
Dan Cooper
@David Raymond Amos
"I remember your Liberal heroes stealing our CPP and UI premiums etc to make themselves look good."
As did your conservative heroes and they still couldn't balance a budget (until they needed to look good for an election)
Heck the Harper Conservatives raised EI rates, reduced the eligibility for claims and pumped the extra money raised into general revenue. While at the same time buying ad time with our money to tell us how they were lowering our taxes LOL
Why do you hate it when liberals act like conservatives and vice versa?

@Dan Cooper "As did your conservative heroes" Now that truly funny.
Perhaps you should do your homework before insulting someone. FYI I ran against the Liberals, the Conservatives the NDP and the Greens etc FIVE times thus far.
BTW I also sued the Crown while running in the election of the 42nd Parliament and that litigation is ongoing to this very day.
Ask yourself why the liberals are defending Harper's actions against me and even deleted my SIN and now won't give me my Old Age Pension.

Your comment"@Michael Murphy I remember your Liberal heroes stealing our CPP and UI premiums etc to make themselves look good."
Harper did the same... he also sold government of Canada GM funds to ballance the books, cut every service in sight, and went far into the red, after criticizing Chretien and Paul Martin on their surpluses.

@David Raymond Amos
No one has ever taken money from CPP.
You're right - Chretien "stole" from EI and transferred the money to general revenues.
But so did Harper. Harper actually "stole" about $7 billion more from EI than the Liberals.
Harper also won a case at the SCC to ensure that all future governments can "steal" the EI surplus and transfer it to general revenues...

Government broke law on EI financing in 3 years: top court
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/government-broke-law-on-ei-financing-in-3-years-top-court-1.750084
"It is clear that the [employment insurance] account does not constitute — as is the case of pension fund assets — a trust fund or patrimony by appropriation. It forms part of Canada's government accounting, and premiums form part of the government's revenues," the ruling said."

Although I proved that Bernier was just anther crooked lawyer way back
in 2006 at least I am ethical enough to admit the I agreed with the
nasty Yankee O'Leary in that Maxey Baby was the pick of the litter that
the Conservatives were offering to their followers. Now we have to deal
with Harper 2.0 promoting his old boss' malicious nonsense with a not
so sly smile for several more years

Dallas Trufyn
@David Allan "O'Leary must
now repay his leadership debt by soliciting individual Canadians to
donate a maximum of $1,550 each until he has enough to cover his
outstanding costs"
Unless I'm reading this wrong, it sounds like Canadains are footing the bill, not O'Leary?

@Karen King
From the article:
"The Canada Elections Act says an individual candidate can't donate more than $25,000 in contributions, loans and loan guarantees to his or her campaign. The limits are there to keep wealthy candidates from having an unfair advantage."
O'Leary would have already paid off this debt if he were allowed...

Roosevelt Smith
So what this shows is that
conservatives who purport to be fiscally responsible, clearly aren't and
have no issues with creating debt and have no qualms about trying to
get around the rules to pay off said debt. mmm hmmmm.
David Raymond Amos
@Roosevelt Smith This should
not surprise any of us.. However what amazes me is that O'Leary found a
law firm to try to argue this nonsense even another Harper minion went
to jail not too long ago for doing just such a thing. Need I say DUHHH??

The firm is happy to bill on anything their client asks for.

Alex Sobieski
Where did all the money go?
The guy didn't even campaign in any meaningful or real way and he didn't
bother to show up to 90% of the debates. So where did the campaign
spend all the money?
David Raymond Amos
@Alex Sobieski I have no
doubt that O'Leary's campaign took care of their beloved candidate very
well as he did his best to try to protect our rights and interests.
Malcolm Alexander
So, what I understand is
because some candidates may not be as rich as him and are unable to pay
off their political debt without declaring bankruptcy, he doesn't want
to pay his debt from his personal fortune.
Why do the self centred rich folk always seem to shirk their public responsibilities?
He knew the rules before he started, and if he didn't, then he is no business person that anyone should ever get involved with.

save his beloved party.

@David Allan
Most candidates don't care. They know they aren't responsible for the debt. So why should hey care what they spend?
Personally I disagree with the current law. I think that AFTER the election or leadership race is over. Candidates become then personally responsible for any debts.
I'm not an o Leary fan. At least he tried to pay the little guys who often do t get paid, or end bs Krupp in the years it takes to fundraise the money after an election is over.
It shouldn't be the businesses that suffer. The current law forces businesses to take on the brunt of political campaigning costs, often never recouping the services they provide,

Looks like these rich people
went ahead and spent more than they knowingly raised, trying to secure
an advantage for themselves and putting small businesses at risk. The
Conservative party should be punished for this severely. This attempt to
simply bull your way to what you desire despite the laws, known to all,
is a great example of how "win at all costs" characters like this try
and bend the rules and then have them changed to avoid the problem they
were so willing to bring on. It's a cry of socialism that looks like
this now: look at these poor suffering businesses that you allowed me to
put in jeopardy. Hypocrites is what they are. These businesses ought to
get stiffed and it should go on top of their resumes.

And you ran an election campaign with money you did not have?

limelight? For the record I spoke to Deepak Obhrai's daughter personally
because she answered the phone for his campaign office. I liked her she
was very open and honest with. However her daddy has ignored my emails
and phone calls for years. So at least byway of his beloved political
party snubbing someone his loves Deepak Obhrai now has an idea what it
feels like to be ignored.

Gee I have already Tweeted and blogged about the article and CBC has yet to post the first comment?
That said it went down just as I posted. When I posted the first 2 comment there were no comments showing whatsoever. One hour later comments had begun began to appear but not mine so I mad the third comment . As i said by that time I had already created a blog about this article and Tweeted about it as well. When the comments of mine finally did appear I updated the blog. (FYI CBC often blocks my comments which why i create the blogs tweet and email their bosses)

Hi Dominique,
This is definitely not casework but you might want ot show it to Alex
. . . but he does not appear to be our constituent, may not even live
in Canada anymore. Seems to have a complaint with Elections Canada
from when he ran for election in Fundy in 2004. Is angry with Peter
McKay for something.
Slim chance it is useful but maybe Alex could look.
FYI - he called from NS today and left a long message on our machine.
I have not listened to it . . . . seems to be sending this to Denise
because she is Deputy Speaker.
Thanks

Hey
With regards to GNB latest call for briefs please view the document
hereto attached entitled "Democracy Watching" It is a true copy of
the cover letter I gave the former Commission on Legislative Democracy
long before it issued a report in 2005 but failed to answer me.
Perhaps your new commission will do so this time.
Perhaps your assistants can find all the rest of my documents that
came with the aforesaid cover letter if not go to Federal Court and
pull Docket No T-1557-15 You will find the documents there as well.
Clearly I cannot attend these meeting because you dudes illegally
barred me many Moons ago Hence my lawsuit N'esy Pas Premier Gallant?

Lionel Bio
Lionel is “[a]n intellectual known for his irreverent political and
social humor.” (Newsweek)
“He wears the mantle of Lenny Bruce, with Lenny’s own tropisms: The
Oblique, The Irreverent, The Tangential, The Concupiscent, The
Polymorphous Perverse, The Arcane, The Numinous. And yet Lionel brings
to the table his own savory: A love of the mother tongue and a gonzo
vocabulary that puts his logo on all his works, whether talk-show
hosting, standup-comic spritzing, or hanging out – with himself a
minor art form.” (Jerry Wexler)
“This is not a succedaneum for satisfying the nympholepsy of
nullifidians. Rather it is hoped that the haecceity of this
enchiridion of arcane and recondite sesquipedalian items will appeal
to the oniomania of an eximious Gemeinschaft whose legerity and
sophrosyne, whose Sprachgefühl and orexis will find more than
fugacious fulfillment among its felicific pages.” (Laurence Urdang)

The commission has been given the following mandates:
Assess commitments made by the provincial government in 2014 to
contribute to making a more effective Legislature by:
– eliminating barriers to entering politics for underrepresented groups; and
– investigating means to improve participation in democracy, such
as preferential ballots and online voting.
Assess other electoral reform matters that have been raised
recently, namely:
– the voting age;
– political contribution rules; and
– political spending rules.
The commission is required to consult with New Brunswickers by:
engaging experts, interest groups and the public about the issues
and options presented in the discussion paper on Electoral Reform; and
giving New Brunswickers the opportunity to make written submissions.

Electoral reform commission invites public to join upcoming meetings
Commission formed in November, tasked with assessing things like
online voting and age of voting
By Sarah Betts, CBC News Posted: Dec 30, 2016 8:30 AM AT
The province's electoral reform commission is looking for public
input, especially from under-represented groups, in an effort to
strengthen democracy in New Brunswick.
Constantine Passaris, one of five members of the commission, said they
are hoping to get a lot of feedback from New Brunswickers.
"We're reaching out to them to engage them in the process because this
is a very important process. Electoral reform is one of the
foundations of what keeps democracy breathing and living through the
centuries," he said.
Meetings, which are open to the public, are set for Jan. 4 and will
continue each Monday and Wednesday of the month until Jan. 27.
Constantine Passaris
Constantine Passaris, an economics professor at the University of New
Brunswick, said the commission hopes to help underrepresented groups
and incorporate new technology into the electoral reform. (UNB)
Passaris said the commission is expected to report its recommendations
to the provincial government on March 1.
He said the commission's purpose is to make sure people are aware of
what it is doing in terms of recommending "new frontiers for electoral
reform" to the government, as well as how democracy can be
strengthened and how more people can be engaged in the democratic
process.
"We're particularly interested in under-represented groups in society,
getting them engaged in the political process, looking at the
transformation information technology has made available to us," he
said.
What do the people want?
The commission is preparing to hear from various stakeholder groups
and experts in January.
Passaris said stakeholders include women's groups, multicultural
organizations, agencies regarding disability issues, younger
generations, and Indigenous groups.
Experts are considered to be those who have expertise in areas such as
cyber security, political participation and political party finances.
The commission invited the public to share thoughts and concerns on
its website up until Nov. 30, but Passaris said that deadline is one
that is "movable."
"As long as the commission will be holding its public sessions, we
would like the public to continue to send in their comments," he said.
Passaris said the commission is reaching out "to make sure that all
New Brunswickers are aware of this commission … and to provide an open
invitation for all New Brunwickers to participate in the process
because we strongly believe that this process should be inclusive and
should be transparent."

registered to vote in the provincial plebiscite on electoral reform.

He said they have not yet looked at the feedback from the initial open
period, but the commission has been discussing amongst itself and
identifying who they want to hear from.
A referendum dealing with similar issues was dealt with via plebiscite
in Prince Edward Island between October and November.
Votes indicated mixed member proportional representation was the
preferred choice with over 52 per cent support on the final ballot.
However, as voter turnout was at a low 36 per cent, Premier Wade
MacLauchlan said he was doubtful the results could "be said to
constitute a clear expression of the will of Prince Edward Islanders."
'A mini-citizens assembly'
New Brunswick legislature

in Fredericton. (Daniel McHardie/CBC)
Passaris said the model of the New Brunswick commission on electoral
reform is very different from the federal committee that released its
report on Dec.1.
Rather than being a committee of House of Commons members, Passaris
said New Brunswick's model is different.
"It is basically made up of citizens who expressed an interest in
participating in this process and were selected by the government to
form a sort of mini-citizens assembly of five people," he said.
Passaris said he believes this is a better approach because discussion
will not be effected by the "element of advancing their political
parties and the political ambitions."
As the democratic process evolves over time, Passaris said the
democratic institutions, mechanisms and machinery have to change with
it.
"We need to keep pushing the frontiers. We need to build a bigger tent
so more people can come into [it] and enjoy the benefits of living in
a province and a country that has an outstanding democratic record."
This isn't the first time New Brunswick has studied ways to improve
its democratic institutions.
In 2005, the Commission on Legislative Democracy issued a report,
which made many recommendations, including moving to a mixed member,
proportional representation voting system.
Bernard Lord's Tories were defeated before the majority of those
recommendations could be implemented.
Another report was done in 2011 looking at ways to improve politics
and legislative democracy.
Executive Council Office
Electoral reform commissioners announced
09 November 2016
FREDERICTON (GNB) – The provincial government has announced the names
of the five members of the commission on electoral reform who will be
tasked with submitting recommendations for improving the electoral
system in New Brunswick.
The individuals are Carolyn MacKay, Bev Harrison, Gaétane Johnson,
Jason Alcorn and Constantine Passaris.
“These individuals were chosen for their high levels of experience and
exceptional qualifications,” said Health Minister Victor Boudreau, who
is also deputy house leader. “I congratulate them on being selected
and look forward to seeing their recommendations for improving our
democracy.”
The members were chosen following a process that allowed any member of
the public to express their interest in serving. They will be given
the following mandate:
Assess commitments made by the provincial government in 2014 to
contribute to making a more effective legislature by eliminating
barriers to entering politics for underrepresented groups; and
investigating means to improve participation in democracy, such as
preferential ballots and online voting.
Assess other electoral reform matters that have been raised
recently including changing the voting age, political contribution
rules and political spending rules.
“Yesterday, the State of Maine voted in favour of the preferential
ballot and the day before Prince Edward Island voted for electoral
reform using the preferential ballot,” said Boudreau. “This is an
evolutionary system worthy of consideration.”
Boudreau also noted that the non-binding Prince Edward Island
plebiscite offered the option of online voting and allowed votes from
16 and 17-year-olds, which are also options being considered by the
commission.
The public has been encouraged to participate in the process by
reading the discussion paper Strengthening New Brunswick’s Democracy
and submitting comments. The information received will be compiled and
analyzed by the commission. Recommendations will be submitted to the
clerk of the Executive Council by March 1, 2017.
Following are the biographies of the commission members:
Carolyn MacKay
A career civil servant with the provincial government, MacKay held a
number of senior positions over the course of her 37-year career. In
2007, she was named deputy minister, a post she held until she retired
in February 2014. She has a bachelor’s degree in nursing and a
master’s degree in business administration from the University of New
Brunswick.
Bev Harrison
Harrison was first elected as a member of the legislative assembly in
1978. He was re-elected four times, including terms in 2006 and 2010
as the MLA for the riding of Hampton-Kings. A former high school
teacher and principal, he held different positions including minister
of supply and services, government house leader and speaker of the
legislative assembly. He also served on various standing committees.
Gaétane Johnson
Johnson was elected as a councillor for the Village of Rogersville in
May 2015. The 18-year-old, who is studying psychology at Université de
Moncton, has received various honours over the course of her studies,
including the Governor General’s Academic Medal and the Roméo-LeBlanc
Excellence Scholarship.
Jason Alcorn
Alcorn joined the Financial and Consumer Services Commission in May
2006, where he works as senior legal counsel within the securities
division. He holds a bachelor of laws from Université de Moncton, a
master’s degree in International Affairs from Institut d’études
politiques de Paris and a bachelor of arts in political science from
University of New Brunswick, Saint John campus. He is a former student
of the prestigious École nationale d’administration in France.
Constantine Passaris
An economics professor at the University of New Brunswick, Passaris
has extensive experience in the private and public sectors. Along with
experience in teaching, research and administration at the university
level, Passaris has worked in banking in the private sector and served
as a policy consultant for the federal government and several
provincial governments. Along with his role at the university,
Passaris is an Onassis Foundation Fellow, a research affiliate of the
Prentice Institute for Global Population and Economy at the University
of Lethbridge, an affiliate professor of the Canadian Centre for

Hi Dominique,
This is definitely not casework but you might want ot show it to Alex
. . . but he does not appear to be our constituent, may not even live
in Canada anymore. Seems to have a complaint with Elections Canada
from when he ran for election in Fundy in 2004. Is angry with Peter
McKay for something.
Slim chance it is useful but maybe Alex could look.
FYI - he called from NS today and left a long message on our machine.
I have not listened to it . . . . seems to be sending this to Denise
because she is Deputy Speaker.
Thanks

Hey
With regards to GNB latest call for briefs please view the document
hereto attached entitled "Democracy Watching" It is a true copy of
the cover letter I gave the former Commission on Legislative Democracy
long before it issued a report in 2005 but failed to answer me.
Perhaps your new commission will do so this time.
Perhaps your assistants can find all the rest of my documents that
came with the aforesaid cover letter if not go to Federal Court and
pull Docket No T-1557-15 You will find the documents there as well.
Clearly I cannot attend these meeting because you dudes illegally
barred me many Moons ago Hence my lawsuit N'esy Pas Premier Gallant?

Thank you for this most interesting note. Incoherent yet most interesting.

Lionel Bio
Lionel is “[a]n intellectual known for his irreverent political and
social humor.” (Newsweek)
“He wears the mantle of Lenny Bruce, with Lenny’s own tropisms: The
Oblique, The Irreverent, The Tangential, The Concupiscent, The
Polymorphous Perverse, The Arcane, The Numinous. And yet Lionel brings
to the table his own savory: A love of the mother tongue and a gonzo
vocabulary that puts his logo on all his works, whether talk-show
hosting, standup-comic spritzing, or hanging out – with himself a
minor art form.” (Jerry Wexler)
“This is not a succedaneum for satisfying the nympholepsy of
nullifidians. Rather it is hoped that the haecceity of this
enchiridion of arcane and recondite sesquipedalian items will appeal
to the oniomania of an eximious Gemeinschaft whose legerity and
sophrosyne, whose Sprachgefühl and orexis will find more than
fugacious fulfillment among its felicific pages.” (Laurence Urdang)

The commission has been given the following mandates:
Assess commitments made by the provincial government in 2014 to
contribute to making a more effective Legislature by:
– eliminating barriers to entering politics for underrepresented groups; and
– investigating means to improve participation in democracy, such
as preferential ballots and online voting.
Assess other electoral reform matters that have been raised
recently, namely:
– the voting age;
– political contribution rules; and
– political spending rules.
The commission is required to consult with New Brunswickers by:
engaging experts, interest groups and the public about the issues
and options presented in the discussion paper on Electoral Reform; and
giving New Brunswickers the opportunity to make written submissions.

Electoral reform commission invites public to join upcoming meetings
Commission formed in November, tasked with assessing things like
online voting and age of voting
By Sarah Betts, CBC News Posted: Dec 30, 2016 8:30 AM AT
The province's electoral reform commission is looking for public
input, especially from under-represented groups, in an effort to
strengthen democracy in New Brunswick.
Constantine Passaris, one of five members of the commission, said they
are hoping to get a lot of feedback from New Brunswickers.
"We're reaching out to them to engage them in the process because this
is a very important process. Electoral reform is one of the
foundations of what keeps democracy breathing and living through the
centuries," he said.
Meetings, which are open to the public, are set for Jan. 4 and will
continue each Monday and Wednesday of the month until Jan. 27.

Constantine Passaris, an economics professor at the University of New
Brunswick, said the commission hopes to help underrepresented groups
and incorporate new technology into the electoral reform. (UNB)
Passaris said the commission is expected to report its recommendations
to the provincial government on March 1.
He said the commission's purpose is to make sure people are aware of
what it is doing in terms of recommending "new frontiers for electoral
reform" to the government, as well as how democracy can be
strengthened and how more people can be engaged in the democratic
process.
"We're particularly interested in under-represented groups in society,
getting them engaged in the political process, looking at the
transformation information technology has made available to us," he
said.
What do the people want?
The commission is preparing to hear from various stakeholder groups
and experts in January.
Passaris said stakeholders include women's groups, multicultural
organizations, agencies regarding disability issues, younger
generations, and Indigenous groups.
Experts are considered to be those who have expertise in areas such as
cyber security, political participation and political party finances.
The commission invited the public to share thoughts and concerns on
its website up until Nov. 30, but Passaris said that deadline is one
that is "movable."
"As long as the commission will be holding its public sessions, we
would like the public to continue to send in their comments," he said.
Passaris said the commission is reaching out "to make sure that all
New Brunswickers are aware of this commission … and to provide an open
invitation for all New Brunwickers to participate in the process
because we strongly believe that this process should be inclusive and
should be transparent."

registered to vote in the provincial plebiscite on electoral reform.

He said they have not yet looked at the feedback from the initial open
period, but the commission has been discussing amongst itself and
identifying who they want to hear from.
A referendum dealing with similar issues was dealt with via plebiscite
in Prince Edward Island between October and November.
Votes indicated mixed member proportional representation was the
preferred choice with over 52 per cent support on the final ballot.
However, as voter turnout was at a low 36 per cent, Premier Wade
MacLauchlan said he was doubtful the results could "be said to
constitute a clear expression of the will of Prince Edward Islanders."
'A mini-citizens assembly'
New Brunswick legislature

Passaris said the model of the New Brunswick commission on electoral
reform is very different from the federal committee that released its
report on Dec.1.
Rather than being a committee of House of Commons members, Passaris
said New Brunswick's model is different.
"It is basically made up of citizens who expressed an interest in
participating in this process and were selected by the government to
form a sort of mini-citizens assembly of five people," he said.
Passaris said he believes this is a better approach because discussion
will not be effected by the "element of advancing their political
parties and the political ambitions."
As the democratic process evolves over time, Passaris said the
democratic institutions, mechanisms and machinery have to change with
it.
"We need to keep pushing the frontiers. We need to build a bigger tent
so more people can come into [it] and enjoy the benefits of living in
a province and a country that has an outstanding democratic record."
This isn't the first time New Brunswick has studied ways to improve
its democratic institutions.
In 2005, the Commission on Legislative Democracy issued a report,
which made many recommendations, including moving to a mixed member,
proportional representation voting system.
Bernard Lord's Tories were defeated before the majority of those
recommendations could be implemented.
Another report was done in 2011 looking at ways to improve politics
and legislative democracy.
Executive Council Office
Electoral reform commissioners announced
09 November 2016
FREDERICTON (GNB) – The provincial government has announced the names
of the five members of the commission on electoral reform who will be
tasked with submitting recommendations for improving the electoral
system in New Brunswick.
The individuals are Carolyn MacKay, Bev Harrison, Gaétane Johnson,
Jason Alcorn and Constantine Passaris.
“These individuals were chosen for their high levels of experience and
exceptional qualifications,” said Health Minister Victor Boudreau, who
is also deputy house leader. “I congratulate them on being selected
and look forward to seeing their recommendations for improving our
democracy.”
The members were chosen following a process that allowed any member of
the public to express their interest in serving. They will be given
the following mandate:
Assess commitments made by the provincial government in 2014 to
contribute to making a more effective legislature by eliminating
barriers to entering politics for underrepresented groups; and
investigating means to improve participation in democracy, such as
preferential ballots and online voting.
Assess other electoral reform matters that have been raised
recently including changing the voting age, political contribution
rules and political spending rules.
“Yesterday, the State of Maine voted in favour of the preferential
ballot and the day before Prince Edward Island voted for electoral
reform using the preferential ballot,” said Boudreau. “This is an
evolutionary system worthy of consideration.”
Boudreau also noted that the non-binding Prince Edward Island
plebiscite offered the option of online voting and allowed votes from
16 and 17-year-olds, which are also options being considered by the
commission.
The public has been encouraged to participate in the process by
reading the discussion paper Strengthening New Brunswick’s Democracy
and submitting comments. The information received will be compiled and
analyzed by the commission. Recommendations will be submitted to the
clerk of the Executive Council by March 1, 2017.
Following are the biographies of the commission members:
Carolyn MacKay
A career civil servant with the provincial government, MacKay held a
number of senior positions over the course of her 37-year career. In
2007, she was named deputy minister, a post she held until she retired
in February 2014. She has a bachelor’s degree in nursing and a
master’s degree in business administration from the University of New
Brunswick.
Bev Harrison
Harrison was first elected as a member of the legislative assembly in
1978. He was re-elected four times, including terms in 2006 and 2010
as the MLA for the riding of Hampton-Kings. A former high school
teacher and principal, he held different positions including minister
of supply and services, government house leader and speaker of the
legislative assembly. He also served on various standing committees.
Gaétane Johnson
Johnson was elected as a councillor for the Village of Rogersville in
May 2015. The 18-year-old, who is studying psychology at Université de
Moncton, has received various honours over the course of her studies,
including the Governor General’s Academic Medal and the Roméo-LeBlanc
Excellence Scholarship.
Jason Alcorn

Kevin O'Leary's pitch to pay back leadership race debt rejected
O'Leary, Bernier, Leitch campaigns all in debt from Conservative leadership race
By Catherine Cullen, CBC News
Posted: Jun 08, 2017 5:00 AM ET

April 26, where he announced he was quitting the leadership race and
throwing his support behind rival Maxime Bernier. The sudden departure
left the O'Leary campaign in debt. (Nathan Denette/Canadian Press)
Kevin O'Leary is a businessman who loves a good deal, but his
attempt to sell the Commissioner of Canada Elections on his pitch to pay
off campaign creditors seems to have flopped.
CBC News first reported that after the reality TV star shocked the political world by dropping out of the Conservative leadership race, his campaign was saddled with more than $200,000 in debt.
Now, in a letter O'Leary shared with CBC News, lawyers for his production company peg the debt at $300,000.
In fact, it seems the three biggest fundraisers in the Conservative leadership race are also the three with outstanding debts.
The campaigns of Maxime Bernier, Kellie Leitch and O'Leary all said they are in the red, though Leitch's campaign said the debt was minor. All of the 11 other campaigns said that, while they were awaiting final numbers, they believed they would break even or have a surplus. Brad Trost's campaign said it was uncertain, but that a small deficit was possible.
While O'Leary has not shied away from touting his own financial success, he's not allowed to pay back his campaign debts himself.
The Canada Elections Act says an individual candidate can't donate more than $25,000 in contributions, loans and loan guarantees to his or her campaign. The limits are there to keep wealthy candidates from having an unfair advantage.
But O'Leary wanted the commissioner to let him bend — perhaps even break— the rules.
The law firm that represents O'Leary Productions made its pitch to the Commissioner of Canada Elections in a letter dated May 23. That's four days after CBC News first reported that O'Leary's campaign was in debt, and that some campaign contractors were complaining about unpaid bills.
The law firm's letter asks that the production company be permitted to loan O'Leary's campaign $300,000 "to facilitate the payment of small vendors who may face financial hardship as a result of having their accounts to the campaign go unpaid for a prolonged period of time."
While the letter refers three times to the potential suffering of small vendors, it also notes that if O'Leary Productions can't loan the campaign the money, O'Leary himself could be squeezed by potential legal action.
"The litigation could very well result in Mr. O'Leary being required to pay these accounts directly if he is found to be personally liable for them," the letter reads.
It also calls the proposed loan "an option of last resort" and notes that "attempts to secure loans from banks have been unsuccessful."
O'Leary told CBC News his pitch was rejected.
"They said no. I think a candidate should be personally liable for any debts not cleared after the race is over and the outcome has been determined. This law seems unfair to smaller vendors that service the political process in Canada that get hung out to dry waiting while the candidates try to raise dollars for a race that is already over," he said.
O'Leary must now repay his leadership debt by soliciting individual Canadians to donate a maximum of $1,550 each until he has enough to cover his outstanding costs.
In Bernier's case, it seems his campaign debt is at least in part due to his dealings with O'Leary. When the businessman and reality TV star dropped out of the race, Bernier not only accepted O'Leary's endorsement, he also agreed to hire scores of O'Leary's campaign staff for the final leg of the campaign.
A spokesperson for Bernier said his campaign was still waiting for some bills to come in but would "certainly" have a deficit, though she could not provide a precise figure.
Bernier was the top fundraiser in the Conservative race, bringing in more than $2 million, according to filings with Elections Canada. (Final fundraising totals haven't yet been made public.)
O'Leary raised more than a $1 million during his short time in the race.
Leitch's campaign, driven by a promise to screen immigrants, refugees and visitors for what she called "Canadian values," raised more than $1.3 million. Leitch's deficit would be "small," said spokesperson Michael Diamond.
"We are very confident that we will be able to raise sufficient funds in very short order."

Conservative Party stands by leadership voting process as questions mount
Kevin O'Leary, who backed runner-up Maxime Bernier after dropping out of the race, wants a recount
By Catherine Cullen, Susan Lunn, CBC News Posted: Jun 06, 2017 4:45 PM ET

One former Conservative cabinet minister who never received his ballot calls it a "fiasco." Other party members have concerns about who got their hands on personal data. Some in the camp of runner-up Maxime Bernier have been raising questions about the integrity of the vote itself.
Now, one particularly outspoken former candidate — Kevin O'Leary — is even demanding a recount.
And while a senior Conservative said there may be room for "tweaks," the party is standing by the overall process, which saw record membership sign-ups and voter turnout.
"I'm extremely happy with the way this went off," said Dan Nowlan, chair of the party's leadership election organizing committee.
Potential questions of vote's legitimacy
That's not how at least one party stalwart sees it.
Jay Hill has been involved with the Conservative movement since the 1980s. He was an MP for 17 years and a government House leader and whip under Stephen Harper. He said he contacted the party three times but never received a ballot.
In a Facebook posting he called it a fiasco. He told Rosemary Barton of CBC's
Power & Politics that he's been disenfranchised and would like to know where there are hundreds if not thousands in the same situation.
"Because of the narrowness of the vote and potential question of the
legitimacy of the outcome, everybody involved in the party should be
concerned about this, and they should be trying to address it and put it
to rest. There's been enough questions raised."
Hill said his response is not sour grapes. He simply feels strongly that he and others should have been allowed to vote.
Deepak Obhrai's campaign told CBC News the candidate's own daughter had to contact the party to get a ballot couriered to her at the 11th hour so she could vote.
Nowlan said he had also heard of instances where people didn't receive their ballots in time. However, he couldn't offer any sense of the scope of the problem.
"Frankly, it's disappointing if any member who wanted to vote didn't get a chance to vote, and that's definitely something we should look at for the future. We need to fix that."
One possibility would be to change the party's constitution to no longer require a mail-in ballot, said Nowlan.
He'd like to see the leadership committee have options such as online voting and other technologies when the next vote is held.
Concerns about numbers
Perhaps the most serious concerns raised about the vote come from Bernier's campaign. As first reported by the Globe and Mail, Bernier's camp has raised concerns about a discrepancy in the final ballot count. It points to a difference of about 7,000 votes in the number of ballots the party said were cast and the list of voters given to the various campaigns before the weekend convention.
However, there has been no official complaint to the party yet — and Bernier himself tweeted late Tuesday, in English and French, that he "unconditionally" supports Andrew Scheer as leader.
Nowlan said he is confident in the process.
"The party did Herculean efforts to make sure that every member was in fact a bona fide member that had paid for their own membership. So the membership list to start off with is very, very clean."
He said the lists were not an integral part of the party's process, rather the focus was on the ballots themselves. Nowlan points out they were constantly under scrutiny from auditing firm Deloitte, scrutineers from the various campaigns and webcams.
O'Leary calls for recount
Former candidate O'Leary is going even further.
"I see no reason we should not have a recount. There are a relatively few number of votes to count and I am sure that no leader or the Conservative Party wants to start a new mandate under a vote-count cloud," said O'Leary in an email to CBC News.
That's not possible, said Nowlan. Once the party's chief returning officer and auditing firm Deloitte signed off on the results, a recount could no longer be done. Dozens of scrutineers were also able to raise issues during the vote count itself.
"That's it. No appeal. It's very clear in the rules," said Nowlan, noting those rules have been in place for well over a year.

results. (Nathan Denette/Canadian Press)
Membership list leaked
Nowlan said he is concerned about a third party gaining access to the Conservatives' membership list. On Friday, it was revealed the National Firearms Association had obtained the list.
The party's chief returning officer, Dave Filmon, is still investigating to find out who was behind that leak. All 14 leadership candidates have denied responsibility to CBC News.
"Frankly, we don't want to name somebody unless we're absolutely 100 per cent sure that the evidence clearly points to it, but if we have that evidence, yeah, we'll definitely identify who that is."
Nowlan said there have been no other complaints about inappropriate access to the list.
Party defends overall process
While Nowlan acknowledges those concerns, overall he's satisfied with the process.
"We wound up after the leadership race having raised more money than we've ever raised before, with the largest membership we've ever had before and the largest participation of members. I think by any measure that's a success."
And another leadership candidate is coming the party's defence. Third-place finisher Erin O'Toole released a statement Tuesday afternoon.
"Based on my team's experience with the leadership election, I am very confident that the process was run fairly, " it said.
He emphasized the importance of attacking the Liberals rather than fighting internally.
"I stand 100 per cent behind our leader Andrew Scheer and want to keep our members focused on the battle that lies ahead."
Conservative Party puts Trost campaign 'on notice' over leaked membership list
Campaign wants to see proof as party weighs disciplinary action over leak to National Firearms Association

However Trost's campaign manager said he can find no proof the leak came from the Saskatchewan MP's camp.
"What we have is an allegation. We've seen no evidence," said campaign manager Joseph Ben-Ami.
When the party handed out copies of the membership list to the leadership campaigns, it engaged in a process called "salting," meaning each campaign received a slightly different copy to allow the party to trace potential leaks.
Ben-Ami said the party reached out to the Trost campaign last Saturday to say it believed it was their version of the list that was given to the National Firearms Association, an Edmonton-based organization that advocates for gun owner and property rights.
Since then, Ben-Ami said all six members of the Trost campaign who had access to the data have been interviewed and the campaign's data logs and security arrangements have been checked. Those checks turned up nothing, he said.
"It would be wrong to say we pushed back [against the party]. We simply wrote back to the party and said there's no indication that any list originated with us. So we've asked them to provide us with whatever information or evidence in their possession to indicate that the list was in fact our list," he said.
Ben-Ami noted that Trost, who ran a campaign based on social conservative values and came in fourth, did not personally have access to the list. However, he said others beyond the Trost campaign did have access to the very same copy.
"The party people themselves had access to the data."
Cease and desist
Last week, the party announced on Facebook that it had received complaints an outside organization was reaching out to its members. On Monday, the party's lawyer sent a cease and desist letter to the National Firearms Association.
The party is demanding the NFA return any hard copies of the membership list and delete any electronic copies. It also wants the party and the Conservative Fund to have access to the NFA's electronic database to be sure all the membership information has been permanently deleted.

"Having a third party have access to our party membership list is just something that's not acceptable," Dan Nowlan, chair of the party's leadership election organizing committee, told CBC News earlier this week.
The NFA has not responded to a request for comment from CBC News.
In its assessment of each candidate's firearms' policies, the NFA gave Trost a "B." Only three candidates got a higher grade. However, Ben-Ami said his campaign had no connection with the group.
"We have no relationship with the National Firearms Association. Period. Full stop," said Ben-Ami.
Sorting out consequences
The Conservative party's chief returning officer was charged with looking into allegations surrounding the NFA's acquisition of the list.
Once that investigation is finished, the party must decide on any disciplinary measures. A spokesman from the Conservative Party of Canada said no decision has yet been made on how to deal with the situation.
One option would be to a fine. Each candidate had to give the party a $50,000 compliance deposit by Jan. 1, which was refundable if the candidate followed the rules.
The sums still haven't been returned and could be docked if campaigns were found to have engaged in bad behaviour during the race.
Ben-Ami said he's still waiting for the party to provide him with more information. He said it would be "very disappointing" if the party moved ahead without providing that information.
"I don't think that's proper due process."
