Heritage minister stirs hornet&#8217;s nest with &#8216;radical extremist&#8217; comments
By Peter Nowak &#8211; CBC News &#8211;  June 24, 2010 
Blayne Haggart doesn&#8217;t consider himself a &#8220;radical extremist,&#8221; which is why he&#8217;s chafing at possibly being labelled as such by Heritage Minister James Moore.
The 37-year-old Ottawa native thinks there are many positives [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Canada's electoral watchdog has deemed online vote-swapping to be legal but warned that the scheme could be used to dupe voters into casting their ballot for certain parties.

Elections Canada began looking into the issue after a Facebook group surfaced last week urging people living in ridings likely to have tight races to swap votes as a way to keep Stephen Harper's Conservatives from winning a majority.

James Hale, a spokesman for the federal agency, said the act of encouraging someone to vote in a particular way is allowed under the Elections Act.

It's also acceptable for people to invite voters to participate in an organized strategic voting plan, whether on the internet or through other means, he said.
