Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Sauvé, you mentioned that increased pressure was put on election workers because of the length of the ballot. If this kind of attempt to disrupt the electoral process were observed from one election to the next, would there not be a risk that election workers would increasingly abandon their duties along the way? As we know, not all workers show up at the polling stations on election day, which can cause problems. In fact, just last week, we talked about polling stations that were unable to open because workers did not show up.
Shouldn’t we keep in mind that we risk discouraging workers if initiatives such as the longest ballot paper continue to be implemented?
