A key employee of the company that was used to send out the misdirecting robocalls in Guelph on election day appears not to exist under the name he uses online.
RackNine, the Edmonton company that suspect "Pierre Poutine" used to send voters to the wrong polling locations, is operated by Edmonton businessman Matt Meier, with the help of Rick McKnight, who is identified variously as head of marketing and web developer.

Why do Mr Harper, his politburo and his senior apparatchiks want to shut down this investigation? It's just getting interesting.

Computer Science as Stanford? If it took access to a database of election information to pull this off I would say that looks pretty suspicious.

RNC = Rack Nine Communications
RNC = Republican National Committee

Interesting those same phonemes occur in Rick McKnight, though not quite in that order

This story really just keeps getting weirder.

I think Pat Martin apologized way too soon about accusing this company of being a bunch of crooks.

Companies doing legal things don't have employees with no discernible origins using false names, nor do they get defensive about revealing who these individuals are - if they're even an individual, and not just a dummy name used by several people at once for whatever kinds of activities nobody wants to admit to....

Is he on their tax records as an employee or board member?

I hope the Post keeps on digging....for conservative-aligned media, they're sure doing a good job of not being Conservative-allied.

kinda reminds me of a certain executive assistant to a certain BC Premier with him since he seized the leadership of the party, Deputy Chief of Staff and also in control of the Public Relations Bureau, who though we knew her name could find out nothing else about her other than a claim to have had a degree in International Relations from Western (UWO).....only two pics of her surfaced in the course of almost 15 years, she's now laundered onto various boards in Vancouver and much more visible....but of mysterious origins and invisible background, 2nd most powerful person in the BC government and the BC Liberal Party for ALL those years; to ask questions about her, as one reporter tried to do about whether or not she was in Maui, and a certain neocon broadcaster powerhouse got really harsh on that reporter and made some threats.....etc etc etc.....

all this time I've smelled "control", in the spying sense of a term, i.e. an operative.

Clearly if Del Mastro and Harper and all the robo-sandbaggers here are correct, this man's hidden identity is clear proof of a Liberal conspiracy to smear the virtuous Tories......makes sense to me. Doesn't it make sense to you?

LMAO

"His entry says that he studied computer science at Stanford University, "

For how many semesters? Graduated? Maybe "Stanford University" is really a compucollege-like private IT college in Manila.

I have a friend who has an SEO expert in Manila, I'll send him this. Who knows, maybe he'll recognize that "police sketch"

Between Meier and his lawyer, it's pretty clear from the squirming that Elections Canada and the RCMP S*H*O*U*L*D* be putting RackNine under the microscope, and SHOULD have served warrants there (instead of the kid-glove treatment....)

this guy is probably hiding out with Pierre Poutine huh
