This provision deems to raise two technical issues. One, which was raised earlier, was that on the proof of identity as prescribed in regulations, there are currently no regulations under the Canada Elections Act and no regulation-making authority. The second operational issue is that at the point at which the notice of confirmation of registration or the voter information cards are sent out, the election period has already begun, and so the updating that needs to be done is generally in relation to the list of electors rather than the register, which is what the CEO is in charge of. So the updates to the lists of electors happens at the local level with the returning officers.
If an elector needed to update their information at that stage, generally it would be the RO they would need to contact, rather than the CEO, and the voter information card, under the act, already has a phone number that needs to be prescribed on it.
So those are some considerations.
