I listened with interest to the exchange between your previous witness and Mr. Cooper. That was fascinating.
There would be no value in having someone sign a form with no candidate's name on it. There would be equally no value in having someone sign a form with all candidates' names on it. I wasn't there, but I can't imagine that Elections Canada would find that acceptable. What are you supporting, then?
This case in particular really brought to my attention this idea that people are signing multiple forms. If somebody is doing that in good faith.... If I know two people who are running for office in the same riding, and I sign both of their forms, if I'm doing that not as part of some grand scam but because I believe in the viability of the candidacy of these two people, I don't think that in that case democracy is suffering for that. I'm just saying, “Yes, these are two serious people.” If there's a coordinated effort, however, to make sure that the same 100 signatures are standing up whomever, and they don't even know who they are, yes, I can see the point of trying to make a rule about that.
