I'll make a general comment on this amendment and those that follow pertaining to the same thing, in other words, the ability to vouch for another elector.
We live in a time when there are an increasing number of ways to prove our identity and when we all have thicker and thicker wallets full of cards. On top of that, we always want to prevent voter fraud. In light of all that, we are proposing putting an end to the practice of vouching for someone and their residential address. The amendment also reflects the fact that a single vote can make all the difference in some ridings, as we've recently seen.
For those reasons, this amendment and others seek to disallow the practice of making a solemn declaration for the purpose of vouching for another person or their residential address.
