Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is outlining several measures that could be used to stop the Longest Ballot Initiative from stacking dozens of candidates into byelections, as he is set to face at least 77 opponents in the riding of Battle River-Crowfoot next month.
“We have to take action, because this is a scam. It is unfair, it is unjust, and it must stop,” Poilievre told a group of supporters during a July 11 town hall in Stettler, Alta., in footage originally posted by Hometown Media.
