Brochu couldn't comment on complaints

Brochu couldn't comment on complaints of Ontario students "stealing" the election, or complaints alleging voter suppression — particularly by anglophone students denied the possibility of registering because a DGEQ employee was not convinced they were truly domiciled in Quebec."This was the first year for voting on campus," she said. "So it's all new and maybe it takes some getting used to. As for those who couldn't register to vote, I can't comment on that."Nor could she comment on the news that Robert Cutler, the president and CEO of Delmar International Inc., a customs broker and transport company, has offered a day off to his employees if the PQ loses.In an internal memo to staff — posted on Facebook Monday — Cutler says in the event of a PQ loss, Delmar will "celebrate by allowing every Canadian employee an additional vacation day this fiscal year."He goes on to say Delmar owners and shareholders are "extremely proud Canadians" strongly opposed to the "current" separatist PQ government.
"We believe in and support multiculturalism and freedom of religion!"Brochu said the DGE is aware of the incident but wouldn't comment as to the legality of Cutler's statement.Cutler could be subject to a fine of up to $20,000, however.Article 558 in the Quebec elections act states that anyone has violated the act if, "in order to obtain or because he has obtained a donation, loan, responsibility, job or other advantage ... incites someone to abstain from voting or vote for a certain candidate."It is not clear whether someone could be found in violation for offering an advantage to someone — a day off — in the event of a particular election result.
