Again, the commissioner will need to decide how this will be done.
We've heard, not only from committee members, but also from people across Canada, that we must ensure that Canadians know the process and how the debates work, the reason that some leaders participate in the debates and others don't participate, and the criteria for determining this decision. The important thing is to ensure a transparent process for creating the debates.
As a result, one of the commissioner's mandates is to ensure that the debates proceed in a transparent manner. The commissioner will also have the mandate to inform Canadians about the debates so that they know when the debates will take place and how they can access or participate in them.
