According to CBC, a phone number used to give false information during last year’s election has been determined. The name registered is Pierre Poutine.
Apparently people in Guelph received calls from this number during last May. They were then told that their polling location had changed and given the location of a “new” one. The location had not changed however.
The name was obtained after elections Canada filed a production order for the call centre the calls were made through. According to Bell Pierre Poutine lives on Seperatist street, Joliette Quebec.
Pierre Poutine is the name of a restaurant in Guelph. Elections Canada is looking in to whether foul play was involved.
