NDP Reality Check: Stephen Harper’s real record on democratic reform

Stephen Harper's party cheated in every election they won.

Stephen Harper gutted Canada’s election laws and tied the hands of Elections Canada, make it easier for them to cheat …and even changed the rules to make it harder for some Canadians to vote.

Stephen Harper promised Canadians he would clean up Liberal corruption, now even senior Conservatives like Preston Manning are saying Stephen Harper is taking our democracy in the wrong direction.

Stephen Harper is why Canadians are ready for change.

In this election, Tom Mulcair’s New Democrats are asking Canadians for a mandate for change that would stop false majorities, end winner-take-all politics and make this election the last one fought under the undemocratic first-past-the-post system.

That’s why more and more Canadians are putting their trust in Tom Mulcair to bring change to Ottawa.
