Think U.S. voting restrictions are bad? Canada’s are even worse

Elections Canada

Officials set up drop-off boxes in neighbourhoods. In some locations, you could vote without leaving your car. Some states extended early-voting days.was such a divisive candidate, turnout reached 66.3 per cent, the highest level in 120 years. Mr. Biden, a Democrat, won by 4.5 percentage points. Under the new Georgia law, people can request a mail-in ballot up to 78 days before election day; in Canada, people can only request what we call a special ballot during the official campaign period, which can be as few as 36 days.

Also, the Georgia law allows state officials and the legislature to intervene in elections, whereas the independence of Elections Canada is sacrosanct.

Thats a joke.

MaximeBernier another power grab from the left. Trying to rig elections. God help us.

Ibbitson had a slow day and produced a 'slow' article. Comparisons are ridiculous, wow they have 5 days and we have 4 (for example).

Who in Canada actually thinks ensuring people are eligible to vote is a 'restriction'? The reason the turnout is low is because people are lazy and apathetic.

This is a garbage article...takes 5 minutes to vote in Canada, no lines, vote for your MP (not ballot measures, judges, sheriff etc.)

'Just set up an internet poll.' -- the Left

Polling stations are within walking distance is most cities. People travel for work so different area. Lastly, legally we get time off to vote. There really was nothing better to report on?

I voted. Nope. There were no restrictions that were unnecessary. They are there for a reason and do not cause no hassle when voting.

John Ibbitson. Hahahahaha.

Yes we need more oportunities for election fraud like in the US.
