Mr. Speaker, you see, it is election time again and enumeration has taken place in my riding, in particular at Matsqui prison.
A judge said prisoners should have the right to vote because "preventing prisoners serving more than two years from voting is too sweeping an infringement". This government must be really hard up for votes these days.
Why did the justice minister not ask for a stay of the judge's decision until the appeal was decided on so that prisoners would be unable to vote in this election?
