Pierre Poilievre and Identification

: The legislation is designed to ensure that voters outside the country provide identification and proof of citizenship and vote only in the riding where they last resided, according to CTV. One change would make it easier for an expatriate to get someone to vouch for their last residence. Pierre Poilievre, the minister for democratic reform, says the changes will clarify some parts of the bill. The existing bill would require them to find someone from the same polling division, a small area with a riding. Poilievre, appearing before the procedure and House affairs committee, said the legislation speaks to a general belief of the Harper government. "We believe that people should provide identification when they vote," he said. The change would allow them to get an attestation from anyone living in the same constituency.
