Key facts of violation

As the independent candidate in the electoral district of Esquimalt—Saanich—Sooke during the 43rd federal general election held on October 21, 2019, it was determined that Louis Lesosky acted as the official agent (OA) of another independent candidate in the electoral district of Victoria, David Shebib.

As a candidate is ineligible to act as an OA for another candidate, there are reasonable grounds to believe that Louis Lesosky contravened subsection 477.44(1) of the Act.
