Mr. Speaker, obviously, it is very alarming to hear reports of the potential that a non-citizen has voted in a Canadian election. We know there are instances where the Chief Electoral Officer has reported that some of those events may or may not have taken place, so they absolutely should be investigated as part of an investigation into someone's application status or where they are within our immigration process.
One has to be a citizen to vote in this country. That is the law. It should remain the law. Our institutions need to defend that principle of Canadian democracy.
