Supreme Court limits third party election spending in Canada
The Supreme Court of Canada upholds a law capping third party campaign spending at 152550 nationally or 3051 per riding for the current election. The 8-1 decision lifts an Alberta injunction, allowing the act to apply while constitutional review proceeds, with government and opposition views noted. National Citizens Coalition plans a publicity push and legal challenge, arguing the gag law infringes freedom of thought and expression.
