Mr. Speaker, this week, the Chief Electoral Officer recommended limiting the length of election campaigns.
It just so happens that I have introduced a bill that would cap the election period at 46 days. In the last election, Stephen Harper doubled spending limits by extending the election to 11 long weeks. This cost the taxpayer $440 million. Canadians want to remove the influence of money and attack ads from our elections.
Will the Liberals support my bill to limit the length of elections?
