It is the right of every Canadian to have a voice in choosing their government. In many countries, people are dying to earn this right. In Canada, we can support a candidate or party of our choosing.

We can volunteer to work for that party in an election. We can erect signs B次元官网网址� within municipal regulations B次元官网网址� to show our support for a candidate and party. But we cannot destroy the rights of others.

Do the candidates sign vandals  support condone their activities? Does the leader of the party they support want them to shut down the voices of other parties? Are B次元官网网址渟ign vandalsB次元官网网址� people who only destroy B次元官网网址� not volunteer, support and take part in the democratic process?

When I see a federal election sign toppled, defaced or whisked away, I wonder about the mentality of B次元官网网址渟ign vandals.B次元官网网址�

Interfering with federal election signs is a criminal offence. Signs remind us to vote, let us know who is running and help us choose.

Voicing our opinion is our right. Voting, our privilege.
