When we say free and fair election, it means people are free from any sort of influence and they are free to elect any body with out fear. If it happens the Country will flourish in every field. And the elected representative will drive the country to the best by making the people of the Country to live in peace , prosperity and happiness.But is it happening in the world? Can we name any country for that.

The unfortunate answer to that is a resounding NO.
While the elections themselves are open to all people of Canada,influence is everywhere,and I would have to say,it is an impossibility to find honest people to run for office.
They call our elections fair,but are far from it,only two provinces have the most people to make sure that there can not be a majority government unless we vote their way (Liberal).They have the most people with the smallest amount of brain power.
If you do manage to find one,please be sure to let us all know.
Thank you for the discussion.

It is correct. Honest people do not take part in the election because of weakness in them due money and power. If they are equipped with the money and power, they may be able to lead the Country.People of the Country should equip them with these money and power. Is it possible?.

No,the rich have all the money needed and if the normal people tried to support a person that has worked there way through life and knew how to actually help the country,the big companies would make sure to supply the rich one with more money to make sure that their person got in.
There is no honesty in big business and government,everything is done to make them richer and us poorer.
Thank you for the BR.

Yep, it's a big "NO" for me too. People are so caught up with power they're even ready to kill in order to win the election. It's either you get paid and vote for their favor or be killed voting for your free will. These are some of the reasons why I enjoy listening to Rage Against The Machine. Their music is just right for double faced politicians showing a clean one to the public while the other one is working evil in the background. A free election should be FREE and voters should be able to exhibit their own free will to vote who they wanna vote.

Whether the situation will change? Time alone will answer to the question.But,it is certain one day or other,the situations may change. Let us wait.
