Well indeed, over the last couple of days and weeks, I did hear about a number of reports from journalists referring to the possibility of an imminent election. What struck me when I reviewed the material for consultation is that Elections Canada has conducted four general elections over the brief period of nine years. This would suggest that the organization is both strong and professional, and that it knows how to conduct elections. I think that Elections Canada has demonstrated this ability over the past years. I have no reason to believe that this ability has in any way diminished over the last couple of months, since the last general election.
On February 20th, 2007. See this statement in context.
