EDMONTON – A United Conservative backbencher has been fined $15,000 by Elections Alberta for a variety of offences including filing false financial statements.
Devinder Toor, the legislature member for Calgary Falconridge, was penalized for fundraising and spending infractions both as a candidate for the party nomination and well as in the 2019 election.
The 10 violations also include exceeding expense limits and accepting a prohibited contribution from a numbered company of which Toor had been a director.
Toor, a first-time MLA, won the constituency seat by just 91 votes over the rival NDP.
