Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Mayrand, getting back to the adaptation power conferred upon you by the federal Elections Act, as you know, pursuant to subsection 17(1), you have the authority to adapt the provisions of the current legislation. Correct?
In your statement, you note the following: “This authority is exceptional and must be exercised with caution and circumspection”, which means infrequently. This power must not often be invoked, particularly during a general election.
