That's just ID. I always wondered if someone showed up with a piece of mail and a license if they'd be allowed to vote. And who would check to follow up?
Trudeau changed the rules with Bill C-71. Essentially someone without proper ID can have somebody vouch for them at the polls by filling out a form.
Everything is documented and seems all well and good, but in the text of the bill, the voucher need only vouch that the person is a resident , not a citizen. Theoretically those who vouch could be organized in advance in key ridings.
That and there were the reports of voter registration cards being sent to PRs and other non citizen residents.
Then there was the fact that the Liberals somehow squeezed a minority government out of the whole shitshow that was their majority. With Toronto going full red, and somewhat well off swing ridings like my own having double digit leads over the cons.
But yes, we have voter ID so that's good at least. Still, the last election stunk to high heaven.
You have to show your ID to vote up here in Canada.
Doesn't your left like to use Canada as a role model? Flip that shit on them.
"Canada has voter ID, why can't we?"
...and you can add: "Look at their Prime Minister! He's a feminsist! And he's got nice hair and voted for the Paris accord!!!"
We have voter ID in Canada? Since when?
Since always. You have to show photo ID to vote
You have to show any piece of government recognized id, not voter id
