Anandasangaree said he will be amending the proposed rules governing the new regime to increase the minimum penalty offenders can face. But while it will be greater than the $50 fine originally proposed, Anandasangaree said he has not yet decided what threshold to set.

"$50 is the floor, $1,000,000 is the ceiling," he later told reporters. "If you look at comparable registries, such as the ethics commissioner … their minimum fine, for lack of a better term, is $100."

So...like....not even approved yet....

At least it's the minimum fine?

How about life in prison?

Fucking with our elections is treason and should be treated as such.
