Mrs. Tremblay, this is the committee's 35th meeting, and the electoral reform approach you are presenting is entirely unique. We have heard all kinds of ideas, but yours is completely different from the ones presented previously by other witnesses. I agree with my colleagues that voters have a problem when a candidate is third or fourth but wins the election.
I have another question about the idea of holding a referendum. With that approach, you proposed holding a referendum at the same time as the next election. You also proposed that the reform be used for the election that would be held no later than 2020 and the ones that might be held in 2024.
You also said that there was a risk of increased public cynicism if Mr. Trudeau did not keep his promise. He mentioned that the 2015 election would be the last to use the first-past-the-post voting system and wants to replace it with another approach in the near future. Would there be a risk of more cynicism from the public if this didn't happen?
