Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
This amendment would prohibit the Chief Electoral Officer from permitting telephone or Internet voting or ballot counting through his authority to adapt the act.
We have heard some of these things. We've heard from provincial governments. There was some testimony talking about this, but I truly just don't believe that we have all of the evidence that's necessary to support something like this. That is why we're putting this in. There's just not enough evidence for us to try to move in that direction, so we would like to put in that amendment.
Thank you very much.
