I think that's a key part of it, because it's true that it's not enough time. If they have an international register of electors, presumably they have contact information and email addresses for people. They don't want to flood their inboxes and build anticipation of an election that we're not sure is coming, but I think there could probably be a decision made to engage well in advance, to put it on people's radar, to make sure electors know to look for the package we'll be mailing to them.
It gets tricky. I'm not making an argument for a presidential system here, but it's easier when they know that the election's going to be on the first Tuesday of November, so they're going to mail your kit well in advance. We can't do that. It really does put us at a disadvantage, but the best way is information. The best way is to build an expectation of communications from Elections Canada.
