Before I was elected, I always volunteered during the election campaigns and I worked at the polling stations. So I am familiar with the challenges facing those voting.
Furthermore, in the last election campaign, we received a lot of calls from seniors with mobility issues who were asking us whether it was possible to vote from home instead of being given rides to the polling station. Elections Canada received a lot of requests and it was not able to handle all of them.
You mentioned the idea of setting up polling stations in seniors' residences. Do we still have mobile polling stations? Could the administrators of the residences be appointed scrutineers? I'm not sure whether that request has been made.
