More specifically, the purpose of spending limitations in the legislation, including the prohibition on third parties’ spending, was to ensure the fairness of the electoral process, which is a corollary of the political equality of citizens. Spending limits achieve fairness in three related ways. First, they prevent the most affluent members of society from exerting a disproportionate influence by dominating the referendum debate through access to greater resources. Second, they help voters make an informed decision by preventing one voice from dominating the campaign. Third, they ensure that the campaign does not appear tainted by the influence of money. 1, record 1, English, - spending%20limits

Football 5-a-side made its Paralympic debut at the Athens Games in 2004 and is open to athletes with visual impairments. There are five players on each team and the game lasts 50 minutes. Rules are similar to the able-bodied game with a few modifications. The ball makes noise when it moves and everyone, aside from the goalkeeper, uses eye shades to ensure fairness. The goalkeeper may be sighted and act as a guide during the game. Also, the measurements of the field are smaller and there are no offside rulings. 6, record 4, English, - football%205%2Da%2Dside

The Racially Visible Action Committee(RVAC) is made up of visible minority Public Service Alliance of Canada(PSAC) members who have come together to focus on the elimination of racism and to ensure a system free from discrimination as well as one that is committed to fairness and mutual respect. The RVAC began with an idea in November, 1989 in the National Capital Region and became a formal organization by February, 1990, conducting special events to raise awareness about racism. In 1991, a similar group was formed in Toronto and later, in Calgary. 1, record 12, English, - Racially%20Visible%20Action%20Committee

L'idée de constituer un tel comité a germé en novembre 1989 dans la région de la capitale nationale. Elle a donné lieu à la création, en février 1990, d'un organisme officiel chargé d'organiser des activités spéciales pour sensibiliser les gens au racisme.
