Complaint: Voting Embargo

complaint: The complaint alleges that party officials did not provide... any explanation as to why excluded Canadians were prohibited from voting, according to NOW Magazine. The complaint further alleges that this procedure amounted to a voting embargo imposed on one ethnic group. But 288 people who have joined a human rights complaint against the federal NDP say they were denied that right during the party's nomination meeting in Parkdale-High Park back in June. It is submitted that the exclusion from the voting list and the accompanying voting embargo imposed on one ethnic group sits in contravention to the legislative requirements under the Ontario Human Rights Code. There were three candidates seeking the federal NDP nomination in Parkdale-High Park at the Lithuanian House in west Toronto. The Ontario NDP and the Parkdale-High Park riding association have also been named in the complaint. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
