The Liberal government is set to introduce new legislation aimed at reforming the federal Elections Act. This initiative, announced today, includes provisions to extend the voting period by adding two additional days, allowing for a total of three days to vote, including weekends. It also proposes to enable voters to cast their ballots at any polling station, to enhance mail-in voting options, and to make a campus voting program permanent. The legislation is part of an agreement with the NDP and aims to make voting more accessible and convenient while also taking steps to protect against foreign interference. It is expected to pass.
The bill, if passed, would add two more days of advance voting, make a campus voting program permanent and “take steps toward” allowing voters to cast their ballots at any polling station in their riding #cdnpoli #ParlCA https://t.co/dVt5px2axX
