Thank you to the witnesses.
Welcome back, Professor Turnbull. I'll turn to you.
You cited some logistical challenges with regard to special ballot voting for Canadians living abroad. I would submit that there may be another issue, which is a gap, and I'd be interested in your thoughts on that as it pertains to the application process.
The riding in which a Canadian living abroad votes is determined based on their last address before leaving Canada. The application for registration for Canadians living abroad requires proof of identity to establish Canadian citizenship, but nowhere in the application does it require a prospective elector to provide proof of their last place of residence in Canada.
Would you agree that the application process should be amended to require some form of proof of the last place of residence?
