Mr. Speaker, it would undermine the foundation of our democratic system. In other words, it would disenfranchise people when strangely enough the intention of the bill is to invigorate and strengthen our democratic system, and the integrity of the voting system. We have a lot of ideas that we will bring forward to hopefully improve the bill, back to the intent of what we all want and that is to have a better system that allows more participation and indeed not less.
