This show, we start off by discussing the court action against the Prime Minister's decision to prorogue Parliament - filed the day after the PM's press conference. Then, John highlights a story out of British Columbia, where some are calling for an investigation of potential voting fraud in the last provincial election. The allegations concern a riding where the difference between winning and losing was just 22 votes. John gives his five rules for free and fair elections.
