Elections Canada is doing a good job of sullying its reputation, says Brian Lilley .

The bizarre nature of recounts happening in this last election is making them look like the gang that couldn’t shoot straight, he says.

There is no evidence of the April 28 federal election being stolen, but incompetence will lead to questions about what really happened.
