Court Injunction Against Axel Kuhn in Etobicoke Centre

Incumbent Liberal candidate Borys Wrzesnewskyj didn’t enjoy his turkey last night.  At least not the Conservative turkey he’s fighting, and claims has defamed his name based on attendance records.

Wrzesnewskyj said,

The Conservative candidate and the Conservative Party of Canada have made blatantly false statements about my voting record and attendance in the House of Commons and at committee meetings.

He’s dropping flyers with these statements on Thanksgiving weekend just before the election knowing that there’s a virtual impossibility to respond.

Justice George Strathy of the Ontario Superior Court Justice ruled that Kuhn must cease publishing and distributing the brochures.

In his decision Strathy J. said,

They imply that the plaintiff has been derelict in his duties as a member of Parliament and that he does not deserve to be paid his salary. Based upon the sworn evidence of the plaintiff, the words cannot be justified.
