Thank you very much.
Through you, Chair, we would deem this amendment out of scope for the following reason. Based on the strong and free elections act proposing targeted priority amendments to the Canada Elections Act that further protect and secure Canada's elections and respond to expert recommendations like those today and from the public inquiry into foreign interference, the Chief Electoral Officer and the commissioner of Canada elections, it is our opinion that this statement falls outside the scope.
We will be opposing the amendment.
