At the bottom of page 6, mention is made of secret votes in Parliament. What are your complaints or your criticisms with regard to the current way secret votes are held? We're talking about completely changing a tradition in the parliamentary system, because in the British parliamentary system, only the Speaker is elected by secret ballot. To my knowledge, this is not the case for independent officers such as the Auditor General, the Commissioner of Official Languages, etc. What is the problem with the current process in your opinion?
