It's not a problem.
As I mentioned, “Voting safely is our priority” was part of our advertising campaign from the very beginning. We had the advantage of having an election date set in legislation, unlike in B.C. We began that campaign on August, 15 and it was integrated into everything that we advertised.
That was the formal approach. We also had an informal approach, in that each time I was speaking to stakeholders or to the media, I emphasized the fact that the polls were safe. We did this intentionally, because we had to balance the system to make sure that it wouldn't be undermined. For example, if people were not confident in the polls being safe, they might move over to voting by mail and overwhelm the system to the point that it would shut down. We had done a lot of research in the United States, Australia and South Korea in order to determine how we would most effectively move forward with respect to balancing that system and making sure that people knew they would be safe at the polls.
We also had to make sure it was safe at the polls. We did a lot of heavy lifting in that regard to make sure that we were meeting the standards of the chief medical health officer.
