I completely agree with you.
I also have a question or comment for Mr. McLaughlin.
In the article you wrote for The Globe and Mail, you raised an extremely important point, in my view. In that article, you said that young people who are starting to exercise their right to vote at the first election when they have the right to do so are often those who become systematic voters, meaning that they go back to vote at subsequent elections. In connecting the dots between the two, you also mentioned in your article that research shows that turnout decline is mostly driven by young voters not participating.
With specific reference to clause 18 of the bill and the power of Elections Canada to encourage youth voter turnout, do you think that other provisions in Bill C-23—such as the one about the use of voter identification cards, which were accessible only to students in the last election—could also undermine the participation of young people in the electoral process if this possibility was removed?
