Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question goes to Ms. Goodman and is about electronic voting. One of my great concerns is integrity.
Consider this example. Someone goes to vote and, at some point, they find themselves alone in the booth. In the examples of the countries you mentioned, the solemnity of that moment may explain why young people prefer to go to vote in person rather than on the Internet. It also may help to reduce undue influence from third parties who may be present when the vote is cast from home.
There are always exceptions. I question the current electoral rules that allow someone with no identification to be vouched for by a person we assume to be a neighbour, confirming that they actually are who they are. Someone can vote without identification. There are problems there.
Electornic voting lets people vote from their own homes. How could we reduce the risk that they may be unduly influenced by someone else or someone who is partisan? How could we ensure that that will not happen?
Unfortunately, the past has taught us that activists have been so partisan that they were prepared to cheat in order to win elections. Sometimes, that increased the participation rate to the extent that dead people apparently voted. We have to try to prevent that from happening again.
