Mr. Speaker, we brought forward a common-sense bill, and we have agreed to some reasonable amendments. With the adoption of this amended version of the bill, we will eliminate the use of the voter information card as a form of ID. We will require Elections Canada to focus all of its advertising on where, when, and how to vote so that Canadians have that basic information. We will make the investigator independent from Elections Canada. Unlike in the last election, we will ensure that every single Canadian is required to bring ID when they cast their ballot. These are improvements, and we are proud of the bill.
