Liberal government rejects petition for laws requiring Canadian politicians to correct false statements.
A Toronto physician's petition calling for legislation requiring Canadian politicians to correct false statements has been dismissed by the Liberal government, which says existing accountability mechanisms are sufficient.
Federico Sanchez, who gathered nearly 45,000 signatures, proposed a system similar to one in Wales where courts could order corrections and suspend non-compliant politicians.
In response, House leader Steven MacKinnon stated that general elections, public petitions, and parliamentary committees already provide the necessary accountability.
