Show Notes
Canadas Liberal government unveils Bill C-25, the Strong and Free Elections Act, to bolster election security. Key changes extend rules against bribes, foreign meddling, and partisan broadcasts to non-election periods. The bill also cracks down on long ballot protests and bans deepfakes of politicians, except for satire. Enforcement measures include sharp fines and new powers for investigators. Additional funding for Global Affairs Canada will help spot disinformation and repression. These reforms aim to make voting safer and more reliable year-round.
