If we're talking about referenda in the public interest, one can perhaps understand that this could be twinned. But if we maintained the current situation and did not amend the legislation, keeping referenda only on constitutional questions, for example, it seems to me that it would be difficult to twin a general federal election with a Canadian referendum dealing with such issues. I think that this is not the same thing at all. It's completely different.
