Your linked story notes that it was/is our president Prime Minister Harper that wants to allow lieing.
It is a way of life for him.
For those who do not follow the news in Canada, there has been ongoing improper shenanigans in our recent elections.
The Conservative party was in trouble 2nd last election for breaking rules but they kept it tied up in court until after the last election and then quietly pled guilty for their illegal actions and tried to sweep it under the rug.
The last election again saw voter suppresion in close ridings and the signs keep pointing back to the Harper's Conservative Party.
Latest news reports show that Elections Canada was after the Conservatives for misleading 'robo calls' for days before the actual election.

Read some of the comments after the story to get a feeling for the publics feelings.
There is more and more a feeling in this country we are being imosed on by an 'illegal' government which was supported by only 39.8% of the voters and now rams many changes to legislation through Parliament wrapped up in Omnibus Bills and then imposes time limits on discussing these hugh bills so opposition does not have the time to reseach all the implications.
Canada is quickly looking like a third world country which will need UN watchers to protect us from election fraud.
