I will be quick, Chair. Thank you.
I have a point of clarification and then a question. In the Moroccan elections—and I have the observations report and recommendations—just to be clear, they have a separate voting list for women but they don't have a separate voting situation for women. All citizens vote in the same polling station. We can talk later about that, but just to be clear, they do unveil and show their faces, and they have a way of doing that and it works. There are some other concerns about Morocco, but that's for another day.
I want to ask a question on the issue of consultation. I think that's really what is missing here. We've heard from members of the community that they were never asked about this issue. The government recently released a public consultation on democratic institutions and practices. They spent about a million dollars on it and it was just released yesterday. There are other documents they claim to be consulting Canadians on. Are you aware of any consultation with the Muslim community on voting and the veil? Do you have any paper on that? Do you know of any instance when either the government or the committee or your office actually consulted the Muslim community, or anyone, before this became an issue?
