Indo-Canadian Campaign Worker From Alberta Charged Under Canada Elections Act
OTTAWA – An Indo-Canadian campaign worker in the 2008 federal election faces two charges under the Canada Elections Act, reported Canadian Press.
Elections Canada says Amandeep Gill failed to provide the chief electoral officer with an electoral campaign return. The agency says Gill, 37, worked as the official agent of an unidentified candidate.
Charges were filed April 30 in the Alberta Court of Justice in Calgary, and Gill is scheduled to appear in court June 17. A charge sheet filed in court provides no additional details about Gill beyond his Calgary address.
A call to a phone number listed under Gill’s address was not immediately returned, according to Canadian Press.
