Does the clerk of the clerk's office fail to provide the deputy returning officer with two copies of section 276 to 287 inclusive (the sections dealing with corrupt practices)?

Manitoba, Canada


The following excerpt is from Re Brandon Election; Wallace v. Fleming, 1911 CanLII 327 (MB QB):

2. That the clerk did not, as required by section 287, furnish each of the deputy returning officers with two copies of sections 276 to 287 inclusive (the sections dealing with corrupt practices) and did not post up a copy in his office and one in the post-office. West Gwillimbury v. Simcoe, (1873) 20 Gr. 211, followed.

3. That most of the deputy returning officers, poll clerks and agents failed to take the oath of secrecy as to the marking of the ballots required by section 191, there being nothing to indicate that the officials did not, in fact, substantially maintain the secrecy of the ballot or that they permitted any invasion of that principle. Wynn v. Weston, (1907) 15 O.L.R. 1, followed.
